that he would make the race for gov

NeW Orleans Cotton Report
F rnished by II. &. B. Beer.

New Orleans, July 31.-The political
situation in Europe havirS- become
more warlike over night, the tension
in all speculative and financial centers
of the world was intense today, the
price of grain advanced sharply and
stocks and cotton were in a state of
decentralization.
French rentes were quoted nominal
ly unchanged, against 77.25 nominal
yesterday. English consols declined
from II at close of yesterday to SO IL
and the private discount rate in Lon.
don was raised from 3-4-5 per cent
to per cent The minimum dis
count rate of the Bank of England
was advanced from per cent last
week to per cent, but this was not
considered an unfavorable feature
when the unsettled conditions abroad
are taken into account. In other
words it would appear that the situa-
tion in Europe is not as bad as gen.
orally reported, otherwise the Bank of
England would probably be more par
ticular in protecting it's reserve, which
is said to represent 52.10 per cent to
its liabilities.

speeches all over the state, keeping
close to the people and trying to find
out what they want.
He spent much of his time reviewing
his record and reciting the hard strug-
gle he has had. He said that when he
went to the state legislature in 1908
he found himself being fought by the
most insidious, damnable and corrupt
railroad lobby ever formed in Mis-
sissippi, and that the same bunch has
been pursuing him ever since, He re
viewed his history in connection with
the secret caucus and in the recent
legislature, taking several digs at Gov
ernor Brewer and his other political
enemies.

The fourth plank was the good roads.
He said he would make speeches all
over the state advocating the building
of good roads, but he said the plank
in Riley's platform, suggesting that the
convict farms be abolished and the
convicts be put to work on two great
state highways, is absurd, because
such highways would only benefit the
people along their routes.
Bilbo further declared he would see
