RUMOR IS PASSING
THAT GOV. HARRIS
MAY RESIGN SOON
SAID THAT GOVERNOR NAL RE.
SIGN BECAUSE OF HEALTH AZ
TER EXTRA SESSION

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 90.-A rumor is
gaining credence here, and has not
been denied, that Governor Nat E. Har-
ris will resign shortly after the con-
clusion of the extra session, not for
any political reasons or considera-
tions, but solely, it is said, because the
governors health and physical condi-
tion is not equal to carrying the
weight of the executive office.
A story was In circulation in At
lanta yesterday that the governor had
even considered resigning immediate
ly, that is within the next ten days,
but this was officially denied by the
governor himself as soon as he heard
it.
Fritz Jones, secretary to the gov
ernor, stated that even if the health
of Governor Harris should make him
give up the office, which it was hoped
and believed, would not be the case,
the governor would certainly not do 50
until after the extra session had
ended.
In the event Governor Harris does
decide to relinquish the burden OF the
gubernatorial office, the duties VIII
fall upon the shoulders of the presi-
dent of the senate as governor pro tem
until the next election The presiden:
Of the senate is Hon. Ogden Persons,
of Monroe, Ga. The procedure would
be automatic and would ge exactly the
same as that under which Hon. Johh
M. Slaton, as president of the senate,
succeeded to the gubernatorial chalr
when Governor Hoke Smith resigned to
become United States senator.

Americus warehouses have received

for the month of October, just ended,
being $3.50 bales. Receipts to this date
November 1st, included cotton of the
new crop, and old bales carried over
from the 1914 crop, no separate ac-
count of the two crops being kept at
the warehouses.
OF the 1906 bales received here to
date probably 10000 bales remain un-
sold in storage and are still held,
awaiting higher prices.
Sales this season are around $4,000
bales, as it must be remembered that
all of the warehouses here held, at the
beginning of the season, large stocks
of old cotton carried over from the
1914 crop, probably 5000 bales. to be
aided to receipts this season, making
a total of near $4,000 bales.
On October 1st, receipts at the AM
ericus warehouses totaled 1885 bales.
Since that date $3.50 bales have been
received here, total for the current
season of 1906 bales.
The official report on cotton ginned
during the season to date in Sumter
county shows a total of 21,966 bales
all new cotton. This compares with
26,544 bales new cotton ginned last
season to November lst,-a shortage
this year of 4,57S bales in Sumter coun.
ty. These figures are given by Mr.. w
