 Montgomery. April 3.-.The hit dos howls," was the comment of Miles G Allgood. Alabama commissioner Of agriculture, today in commenting on the reply of Governor Allen of Kan sas to J. s. Wannamaker, secretary of the South Carolina cotton acreage re- duction committee.
 We are getting results from our conservative handling of the cotton situation this season, and people who hate to see the south prosper are rais- ing their usual howl. If we were not getting results we would not hear from them, MT. Allgood continued.
 T am waiting with much interest to note the result of the big confer ence at Memphis April 10. when the Harding Cooperative Export associa- tion will be discussed. I believe MT Harding's plan will be adopted with great benefit to the southern planter"

FOR STORY TO BE RIGHT
 CHARLES RAY MUST WIN

JIM CORBETT PLAYS SAFE

Jim Corbett expected to take certain risks when he signed up to play the star part in the Universal serial, "The Mid night Man. but there are certain other chances that he absolutely declines to take, to wit: r
 'If there's any press-agenting of J. Corbett to be done, J. Corbett Is going to do it for himself" said the star. q don't want any mash notes from Japa- nese beauty wished on me, nor any pro- posals from Hawaiian princesses. I've seen these publicity birds work, and they're not going to work on me-not while I've got kick left.
 There's just one lady I want to stand we'll with, and I'm not bragging any when I say I do stand we'll with her. Mrs. James J. Corbett. And I'm going to keep 1t up, if I have to mop up every press agent from here to Park row"

Hubbard Bros. X Co.'s Letter

New York. April N3.-Cables this morn- ing were better than due, and sales of spots in the Liverpool market were 1000 bales. making the second day of trans actions abroad somewhat approaching those of normal times.
 The foreign news was also more favor able and reports from Paris that the settlement of peace was not far off had considerable effect upon sentiment here.
 Prices opened at an advance of some 8 points and at one time were half a cent a pound above last night Free sell ing from the south checked the advance but the market in the early afternoon showed very steady undertone, with sentiment generally nfore bullish than has recently been the case. The old crop months are gradually going to a parity with the southern market and we expect this will continue, although 1t is likely. in view of the stocks held in the south

HARDLY A VETERAN

. The St. Augustine Record speaks
of Adjutant General Cats being a
veteran soldier. We think young
Cats would be too modest to speak
of himself as a veteran. His record
from the war department says he, ar
rived in France eight days before the
armistice, and does not mention his
ever being under fire. Certainly, the
war-tried men of Chateau Thierry,
the Aisne-Marne, st. Mihiel and the
Argonne, of whom there are hundreds
in this county, would not consider
him a veteran. All his training, aid
ed by the favors handed him by his
father, Col. Harrison and Adjutant
General Christian only enabled him
to attain second lieutenancy. His
appointment is just exactly like one
of the abuses of monarchy so much
criticised in America-putting the
son of an emperor or king in com
mand of a regiment, or even an army
corps. We have no doubt that. young
Cats is good boy, and will do well
what there is to do in his office, less
than the work Of the captain of a
single company has to do, but his ap
pointment was rank nepotism, all the
same.-Ocala Star.
