Asked for Camilla by
Congressman Park

CAMILLA, Ga. May 3.-Congress-
man Park has introduced a bill to
erect a postoffice building in Camilla
to cost not less than 100000. While
the introducing of a bill and the
erection of the building are matters
far separated, yet the people of Ca
milla are taking an active interest
in the bills passage. Camilla is a
second class Office and deserves a
good building and much effort will
be taken to get the appropriation.
About $50 bales of cotton was sold
here this week at IL cents. j. j.
Wicker, cashier of the Bank of Ca
milla, is taking active interest in
holders so as to relieve the money
stringency and bring a stimulation
to trade. Only small lots were sold,
no one man selling more than ten

900 bales of cotton are being held by
people in and around Camilla, and

until it hits the bottom. There is
an arrangement on the spool which
shows the lengths of the wire which
has been taken off the spool and thus
indicates the entire length of wire
which has descended. In this way
