Simpson, president American Association of Fairs and Expo sitions, asking cooperation in a peace and plenty movement to preserve peace in this country and promote peace abroad have received enthusiastic response iron SS fairs and expositions in this country and two in Canada.
 Many will make fireworks display similar to that at Minnesota State Fair which depicted the farmer as the soldier ol peace and his implements as machine guns of prosperity, showed flour barrels surmounted by sheathes of wheat and the motto, Flour Barrels Are Better Than Gun Barrels. which has been taken uf in many states.
 Governors of several states and William Jennings Bryan. Secretary of State, have wired commenting the plan. Attendance at the Minnesota State Fair Saturday broke the record of years, S0,000 being present when doves of peace were released by Mrs. Julian Heath, president National Housewives League, Lincoln Beachey and others in front of motion pictures to be displayed throughout the country. The doves bore dollar bills to their home in the Twin Cities, and thus demonstrated that peace brings the money to the house. wife instead of the warrior.

BANKER OPTIMISTIC ONC0TT0NS|TUAT|0N
J. B. Stirling of Jackson States Money Plentiful to
 Handle Crop

Jackson, Miss, September 19.-tSpe- cial.)-J. R. Stirling, president of the First National bank of this city, takes a very optimistic view of the cotton situation. believing that the prospect for peace in Europe Is growing bright CT and that conditions in this country are adjusting themselves so that he does not believe the south is facing any great business disaster.
 MT. Stirling says i've have plenty of money to hSndle the cotton crop in this territory and reports from the banks with which we are connected, and our various correspondents are of sim liar character The farmer who wants a loan on his cotton can have no trou- ble in getting it. The fact is very few farmers are asking for loans on cotton Thus far an exceedingly small amount has been loaned by the banks on COZ ton, which is proof conclusive that the farmers. generally speaking. are able to hold their cotton without financial assistanee.'
 In this connection 1t is interesting to note that the "buy-a bale" movement Is under good headway More than 50 bales have already been purchased by citizens of Jackson and others are fall ibg in line.
 The Jackson broker Of the Quaker Oats eom..ny received instructions from that company today to buy a bale for their account at 10 cents per pound and stated that similar instructions had been given to all their brokers and salesmen. The company also advised it's agents here that il had placed an order for .000.000 cotton bags and sacks for immediate delivery, having determined to change from jute to cot ton. Several other big grain dealers. have given notice of similar action as to the sacks they will use hereafter.

Tuscaloosa, September 19-(Special. ! The election of city commissioner to
 succeed S. H. Sprott, who has been
 president of the board since the in
 auguration of the new form of gov efnment three years ago will be held Monday. In spite of the fact that there have been five announced candidates Ter several months, 1t is considered
 certain that light vote will be cast
 In the last democratic primary 1ooo votes were cast in this beat and with the other voters who are eligible to participate In city election con slderaoly greater number could be boiled. The estimates however nlaca the vote Monday at not more than 7ho. since majority is necessary for cleo .'on II IS probable that a second elec- ton the following week will be neces-
 sary. The successful candidate takes effice the first Monday in October and
 Will hold for three years. The other members of the present board are R.
 l.. Rodes and Hugh Prince The five candidates who will go before the voters Monday are D. L. Foster, D B. hobertson, A. J. Roby, O. " Crabtree ana S W. Friedman.
 There will be no sessions of county court next week in order that the Jurors, court officers and witnesses might attend the West Alabama fair, which opens Monday and continues throughout the week The grand jury. which has been in session for the past o1c
 week on account of the fair. The grand Jury has investigated d number of cases and has examined many wit nesses but no true bills have been 1ound and no report will be made un- Ill the adjournment. The principal case investigated was that of TossIe King charged with murder for the killing of Police Officer w. G. Thrower several weeks ago. King was recently bound over by the inferior court to await the action of the grand jury, bail being dlsallowed him.
 Added impetus has been given the tuy-a-bale of cotton movement here by the action of the merchants of Tus- caloosa who have fallen in line and are taking the lead in the fight to keep cotton from being placed on the market at less than 10 cents per pound. At meeting last night many merchants agreed to increase their pur- chases at this price to five bales and letters are being sent out by them to all the wholesalers and manufacturers with whom they do business asking the purchase of a bale at that figure. The local merchants agree to hold same and store it free for those who will avail themselves of this opportunity to aid the plan
 meeting of citizens and members of the Board of Trade has been called for Monday night to perfect arrange ments for the buy-a-b bale plan here.

Doctor Recommended
 Warmers

I have great faith in your remedy My first husbands mother. Mrs. Mary C. West, had bad case of kidney trou- ble She was in bed one year. Three doctors attended her. and after a con sultation they told her husband she could not live five hours. as one of her kidneys was gone. Then he called an old doctor who had previously attended her. He told her that all he knew to do was to try Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Remedy, and if this remedy did not do her any good. nothing would. So she started to take Warmers and in less than three weeks she was on her feet again and she was thoroughly cured by your remedy"
