Call For Extra
Session Delayed

Atlanta, August 25.-The call
for an extra session Of the Geor-
gia legislature, which Governor
Harris was thinking of issuing
yesterday, will be delayed for
several days more, and possibly
for week or two.
Governor Harris was sick yes
terday, and remained away from
the capitol on the advice of his
physicians, but this was not the
real cause for postponing the
call. The real reason, it is au-
authoritatively stated, is that the
governor is thinking seriously of
the cotton situation, and that he
may. if it's seriousness justifies it
in his opinion, include a consid-
Grafton of the cotton situation in
his special call.
So far as has been learned he
has not yet made up his mind as
to whether he will include prohi-
bition or not. Certainly he has
given 40 intimation on the SUBJ
ject. He is being urged strongly
in both directions.

Mark Reached
By Local Warehouses

1850 bales of cotton have been
received up to date at the local
warehouse, This is the largest
number of bales of cotton received
at the Fitzgerald market at this
time of the year. Most of the cotton
is being sold as fast as it arrives,
farmers believing that anything over
SC per Id. will let them out, especially
with cotton in its new state There
is little prospects of cotton being
held over as during last season.
