PRESENT DROUTH IS
 NOT HURTING CROPS
From TuesdaS's Daily.

\ From Tuesda~'s Dafly.
 Where the seed bed was properly prepared and continuous cultivation has been kept up, crops in this county are not suffering from the unusually dry weather which has prevailed here for the past two weeks or more, ac- cording to the Log Cabin Democrat S correspondents. There is, however, some complaint that late-planted cot ton is not coming up to good stand. The fair weather has enabled the farmers to keep their fields free from grass and in a good state of cultiva- tion, and if rains occur within the next few days, it is not believed the drouth will cause much damage.

Washington. June G.-Thc senate

voted to report out only the trade

posed the motion and others declared
themselves opposed even To the bill
"a the present time. Chairman New

take up supplemental legislation and
issued this statement:

foroshadow curtailment ot the trust

ed out that the committees action
came after conferences of some Of
