No Sunday Concerts for Jackson.

There will be no sacred music cor.
certs in Jackson Sunday afternoons.
This course was definitely decided
when the proposal to have such music
by the Ennis band was made by a
number of those interested in the sub
ject.
Consideration of the proposition by
prominent members Of the Jackson
board Of trade whose advice is heed
ed resulted promptly in the decision
that inasmuch as many of the citizens
who subscribed to the band fund have
expressed their disapproval of Sunday
music of any nature, and that it would
be unw;se not to show Difference to
their wishes, the idea should be abaIt
doned for the present at least.

FUNLETS

It takes two to make a bargain, but
only one of them gets 1t.
The world doesn't judge a man by
his own clothes, but by his wife's.
A great deal Of what passes for dig
nifty is nothing but genuine laziness.
A man is soon forgotten after he is
dead-unless you happen to marry his
widow.
A woman in her best clothes wants
admiration: at all other times she pre-
fers love.
Shortly after marriage a man be-
gins to realize hat he talked too
much during the courtship.

 REVIEWS SITUATION IN FINANCIAL WORLD
Stock Trading to Continue As At Present, Restricting Sales to Closing Prices of July 30 Refined Sugar Takes Drop in Price.

CThe Barron Financial News Servfce.)
 New York, Oct. For this week at all events, the restrictions which confine transactions in listed stocks, between members of the Stock Ex- change, to purchases and sales at the closing prices of July 30, will not be changed. A few days ago there were intimations that a ruling might be made to permit dealing at moderate concessions from the figures which prevailed when regular trading was suspended, but 1t has since been de- cided to allow matters to remain as they are at present.
 Of a total of 2,20o stockholders reg fstered on the books of the American Telegraph & Cable Go. as of June 30, 1914, II were European, their hold fngs amounting to $952, 500 of a. total outstanding stock of $12,158. 200. The New York Ontario & Western Rail- road Go. on the same date had 271 European stockholders out of a total number of 4,184- Total holdings Of the foreign stockholders amounted to $6,742,3oo Tho Lehtgh Valley Coal Sales Go. had 59 European stockhoId- CTS whose holdings amounted to $72,- 900. The American Cities Go. had 3s European stockholders whose hold ings amounted to $1S4. .e0o.
 Refined sugar has receded to the lowest price levels since the start of tho European war. The Federal Co. will aocept orders in fine granuHasted at 6-86 cents q pound, which Is lA c lower than the price recorded early 4n August
 Dealers in un1isted securities are re- ceavfng an increasing volume of or ders- Several houses report that or deEB in unlisted stocks are larger than at any time since the closing of the outside market on July 30. Most of the orders are on the buying sides. Sales of Standard Oil stocks continue through the committee of five, and 80 per cent of the dealings closed so far have been at prices better than the July 30 closing figures

REPRESENTATIVE MARIAN LAUDS WILSON AND WORK OF CONGRESS
 IN ACCEPTING REORGANIZATION

we have passed the trade comnis- sion bill, g. law which will prevent forever gigantic corporations driving their weaker competitors to the wall
 .sThe Reyburn securities bill, which gives to the interstate commerce com mission power to regulate stock and bond issues and puts an end to stock wateings You all know the fate of the New York, New Haven & Hartforo Railroad, whose stock ten years ago on the market. This awful wreck Of a road whose property is one of the finest in the world would have been impossible under this law
 The Democrats have passed two amendments to the constitution; the first providing for an income tax, by which S1O0, ,00O, 900 of taxations is taken from the backs of the poor people and placed upon corporations and men or wealth who are best able to bear it., and who now for the first time will pay their just share of the expenses of the government.
 .sThe other amendment provides for the election of United States senators by the people and not by the. 1egisla- tl1re.
 We have passed the Lever bill, which grants a. federal appropriation to every state for farm extension work and will prove a great aid to the farm CTS. It is a well known fact that tb e farms of this country do not produce within one-third as much per acre as the farms of European countries. This bill will improve these conditions and will undoubtedly result ill q very large increase in the prodHctive wealth of the country.
 These are but 5 few of the many acts passed by the present congress, every one of which tends toward the greater wealth, happiness. and pres perity of the people of this country. This record of progressive legislation is due largely to the splendid leader ship of the eswise, able, courageous and patriotic statesman, President Wood row Wilson.
 + T accept this nomination with con fdence that the record of caneress and of our state administration will meet with the warm approval of the people. and that the Democratic ticket just nominated will on November B. receive their endorsement 2
