DrV Goods Men On War Path.

Special to Independent.
Washington, July 24.-United
States Senator O'Gorman of New
York today presented to Con-
gress the petition of nearly 100
leading distributors of cotton
cloths, handling practically the
entire output of domtstic cotton
fabrics, protesting against the
enactment into law of unequal
provisions covering cotton telX-
tiles and deploring the discrim-
ination that subjects the cotton
trade to these needless hard
ships" At the same time it was
pointed out that the cotton men,
by coming into the open rather
than instituting an insidious
lobby for influencing legisla-
ton, haG taken a long step TO-

and legislative appreciation.

Only one county in the state

That was White county, the

PHILLIPS COUNTY TO HAYS
Only partial returns were re-
ceived last night from Phillips
county. The Gazette's cores
pondent at Helena was unable
to obtain the complete vote Of
Helena. The Third ward vote
was held back and no reason was
given. Judge Hays is leading by
a big majority on the face Of
the partial returns from that
county.
Asked when he would take the
oath of Office, Judge Hays last
night said:
II suppose as soon as the cleo
ton is ascertained by the prop
err authorities, which in all prob
ability will be not later than Au-
gust 1, inasmuch as Governor
Futrell has expressed a desire to
be relieved not later than that
