GEORGIA—Houston County,

Court of Houston oounty, Ga, do certify
that tbe foregoing is a true and exaoc
copy of petition tiled in my office this
21st day of April. 1903.

The figures furnished by the
census office relative to the pro
duction of cotton in this country
in 1902 are both interesting and
instructive. The number of run
ning bales was 11,078,881, and of
bales of 500 pounds standard was
10,680,945. It is understood of
course that these figures are taken
from reports furnished by the gin
neries.
The average crop for the last
four years, as shown by the re
ports of the ginneries, has been
9,902,277 bales, exclusive of linfc-
ers. The crop of 1902, therefore,
was an iucrease of 728,688 bales
over this average. The increase
would have been a great deal
deal larger if. it had hot been for
the drought in Alabama and the
boll weevil in Texas. The falling
off in the production in Texas was
remarkable. The figures show
that in 1900 that state produced
84 per cent, of tbe entire cotton
crop of the United States and
one-quarter of the entire cotton
production of the world, and in
1902 it produced only 28 per cent,
of the production of this country.
The increase in the output in
Arkansas was so' great aB to excite
very general comment. It was 19
per cent, over the crop of 1900.
Oklahoma and the Indian Terri
tory are also commanding atten
tion by the rapid inorease in their
production of cotton. In thirteen
years the increase has been to 158
per cent.
The very important part that
cotton plays in the commerce of
this country is of course well un
derstood. It is more important
than our gold mines. The value
of our cotton exports in 1902 was
$818,678,443. That was greater
than the value of our wheat ex
ports, though perhaps iu the
wheat grooving section the impres
sion prevails that wheat brings
more foreign gold to this country
than cotton. As a matter of fact
the cotton crop is much more val
uable than that of wheat, being
only second to corn. The estima
ted value of the cotton crop of
1902 waB $501,879,184. It is not
to be wondered at, therefore, that
the government Bhows a steadily
increasing interest in it,and striv
ing constantly fc to give more relia
ble reports in regard to it. And
the time is coming when the bulk
of the cotton produced in the
southern states will be manufac
tured close to the cotton fields.
There seems to be ground for pre
diction, therefore, that the time
will come when the south will be
the richest seotion of the country.
“I suppose,” said Uncle Hiram
accoiding to the New York Sun,
“the old Adam is lurking in us all.
“Once when I was a younger
man, going along the street one
day, I saw two boys fighting. Now
if there’s anything I don’t like to
see, it’s two boys out of their
heads with anger and tearing and
scratching and pounding eaoh
othe, with a lot of big bruteB
standing around and looking on
and enjoying it; and so I steps
over to these two boys and tries
to separate ’em.
“ ‘Here,’ says a big feller ou
the sidewalk, to me, ‘what you
tryin’ to do there?”
“ ‘Tryin’ to stop ’em,’I says.
“ ‘Well, you trot along now,
audlet ’em fight,’ says the man,
stopping down to the street where
the boj s was and giving me a little
push on the shoulder; and I push
ed him back, and ho hit out at
me, and the next minute him and
me was havin’ it there in the
street in great shape, hammer
aud tongs; and the orowd wasn’t
just standing along on qhe ourb
now, but surrounding us in a ring,
and we goin’ it biff-bang all the
time.
“The two boys, of course, stop
ped fightin’ the minute we got at
it, and the littlest one says to me:
“‘Go itl Skeesicks, Go it,’
and seemed to be more delighted
over it than anybody. And we
went at it all right, to a finish.”
•‘Did you liok him, Uncle Hi
ram,” asked the lusty young
nephew to whom the old gentle
man had told the story.
“We-el,” said Uncle Hiram,
“that’s hardly for me to say, but
that fight taught me one lesson,
that the old Adam is lurkin’ in us
all. We are, all of us, any time
liable to lose our temper, and we
want to be always watching out.”

A government of universal suf
frage necessitates universal edu
cation; therefore, the education
of all the children of the people
of this state is a task for patriotic
statesmanship. What and how
our children are to be taught is
the supreme question. However
much wb have done and are do
ing, it is plain that we can, and
should, do more.—Gov. A. j. Moil

Mr. Josep Pominville, of Still
water, Minn., after having spent
over $2.ooo with the best doctors
for stomach trouble, without re
lief, was advised by his druggist,
Mr. Alex. Richard,to try a box of
Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liv
er Tablets. Ho did so, and is a
well man today. If troubled with
indigestion, bad taste in the
mbuth, lack of appetite or con
stipation, give these Tablets a tri
al, and you are certain to be more
than pleased with the result. For

Attorney General Bell of Texas
has given an opinion to the effect
that the new anti-trust law of
that state does not apply to labor
organizations or prohibit their
members from contracting to
work from specified wages; never
theless a number of manufactur
ing concerns are refusing to re
new such contracts and are pre
paring to have the matter tested
in the courts.
In 1902 this country was the
largest exporter of domestic mer
chandise in the world, while no
onger ago than 1870 her experts
vere exceeded by three countries,
France, Germany and the United
Kingdom. In “favorable balance
of trade,” or excess of exports
over imports, the United States
also holds first rank among the
nations.

MIDDLE GEORGIA AGENCY FOR
Joe Cannon’s wit is of the rug
ged Western kind, lacking cou-
spiculously everything iu the way
of Ohesterfieldian grace. Here is
a story which illustrates this char
acteristic of the distinguished Ill
inois statesman: On one accasion
he was breakfasting at a hotel in
a small oountry town when he ac
cidentally upset his coffee on the
table. The landlady commented
somewhat phrewislily upon his
carelessness, but Mr, Cannon
made no reply. At the succeed
ing meal she took oocasion to say:
“It’s a good thing for you that
the coffee left no stain on my ta
blecloth.” To which Unole Joe
calmly replied: “It was too weak,
ma’m. You’ll have to stain your
coffee before you can expect it to
stain your table linen. Use more
beaus, ma’m; use more beans.”
The water that has gone by will
not run the mill. He leans upon
a shaky post who rests his busi
ness upon a past reputation. Men
do not ask what one was,but what
he is. The world is marching on
and on, and to keep up with the
grand procession one must move
right along with it. The people
have been educated to go to ad
vertisements for information as
to where to buy.—Printer’s Ink.
