Tki.kphoxk Democratic National Committee Convention at New Orleans. x'..... 11-1- ? ?- a c ii wul'uii^, nvpi.?uovcrnoi Blanehard, democratic national committeeman from Louisiana, is sanguine that the next convention of the committee may he held in New Orleans. At a meeting of the committee in New York just prior to the Bryan reception he read to his associates a telegram from Preident All>ert (iodchaux of the New Orleans Progressive Union inviting the committee to meet here in 15)08 to nominate the Democratic candidate for president. This was the first city to make formal offer to secure the convention though several have since followed. Mr. Bryan's daughter lives here, and as he may be the nominee despite his tentative proposal government ownership of trunk railroads, unusual efforts are being made to have New Orleans named for the Convention. It is pointed out that the metropolis of the South, the gateway to Panama and eventually to the Orient, is entitled to special consideration, particularly as its many years experience in handling immense carnival crowds, naturally fits the city for easily taking care of tens of thousands of visitors. Obituary. Departed this life on the twentyseventh day of August, IbOU, in the seventy-fifth year of her age, sister Martha F. Jeter. She has been a consistent member of Bculah church since its organization, being one of the nineteen members l?earing letters from Fair View to organize Reulah church. She was always ready to contribute to missions, pastor's salary and expenses of the church. In her last days, while she was not able to attend the services of the church, she would never forget to send her contribution. Resolved therefore, 1. That while we yield submissively to the will of our Heavenly Father, Bculah church has lost one of her i>est and most liberal memljers. 2. That we extend to the lwreaved family our heartfelt sympathy. 8. That a copy of these resolutions he sent to the bereaved family, The Union Times, Baptist Courier, and Baptist J'ress for publication. And that they by inscribed in our minute book. 8. L. Crosby, Church Clerk. fROM SANTUC. Mrs. Mattie Sims and Mrs. Sudic Edwards, of Union, visited the i' family of their brother, Mr. J.

J The "traveling saw mill" is get-; , ting to be "the thing" of late. 1 The saws are going to the woods. | i. j Mr. Will Sartor is launching out in . the business. And Saturday a fine sj 11 h. p. engine was set otY here for -j Mr. J. C. Mobley, from over Tyger 1 river. Toss up you hats, boys: we are i- to have some new bagging. 1 saw 1 it unloaded last week. We have not been able to get any the past t few years, only old delapidated _ stuiT. The.people had to nntch nml I . scriinage, and then, often, it would j x not cover the cotton, and the whole | bale would nearly fall through,' 1 making a bad appearance. That r I old stuff, I guess, has rotted so i badly that it has disintegrated. I ? guess, though, that the sellers could make a good thing out of that bag, ging, even of the 3rd and 4th genii oration. But why won't the South-1 t, em farmers all l>e of one mind and use eotton covering, letting jute go for something else, thereby increas[ ing the demand for their staple. That "cool spell in August was so delayed this year, or run out by the' beat, that it never reached here un. til last week, September.
