The showers, moreover, are where most needed, which is northeast Texqs. Any piyospert of rea! relief, however, will operate. as a check on the buying, although as against that it is difficult to see whee any heavy aggressive selling will make its appearance unless it is for speculative short account. Liquida tion has been frequent and hedging lias practically run its course for the season unless it comes from the mills selling against their rttohks of cotton. which looks very improbable, in view of the improvement iri g.-nds and the well known scanty stocks resulting from the hand to mouth pfUcy prevalent in all branches of the trade for so long. Existing prices discount mftch of what is favorable in the sitnatiou to date and suggest strongly that advances be followed cautiously if at all but good reactons pesent opportunities for pur chases of which advantage should be talfen, as matters arp shaping inem sewes in sneh away as to ■ foreshad w periods of much aux:ety ; as to the yield next season and a large crop is practi cally indispensable to meet probable re quirements. POST AND FLAGG. Two Irishiuent, at desperation point, held up a passing Scotchman. After a long stiff tight in which the Scot very nearly had the best of them they suc ceeded in getting him down. A close search releaved a lone penny. "Truth. Mike.” said Pat, disgustedly, "if he'd had five cents he'd have murdered the two of us.” "Are you a ctyok-watcher?” asked the | employment agency manager. “'Nope, no office work® for mine." an swered the applicant disdainfully.

Frank A raj field of this city, to the Superior Court bench to succeed Judge Ben F. Long, who died Saturday at his home in StatesviHe, and at the solici tation of his friends Mr. Armfield has agreed to make the race. Members of the bar took the first step'jn the campaign for Mr. Arm field, and individually and collectively they have urged his appointment by Gov ernor McLean, who will name Judge successor. Other citizens of this itrid other evties also have wired Governor M<T,ean asking that he appoint Mr. Arm- Meld. I , Mr. Armfield began the practice of Ipw in 18fM after graduating from Trinity College and the State University ' law school. He was a student for one year at the Vale law school. He has been very successful as a trial lawyer and is rec ognized throughout th# State as one of the finest students of law in North Caro tina. Mr. Armfield lias been prominent in the Democratic party for many years. He served one term ns Mayor of Monroe, was a member of the electoral college in 1904. served in the State Senate from Cabarrus county and for two years was chairman of the Cabaft-us County Demo cratic Executive committee. So far two other candidates in addition j to Mr. Armfield. have entered thp race for the judgeship. They are R. l-ee Wright, member of. the Salisbury bar, ; and John T. Brittain, member of the Asheville bar. Members of the Concord bar who. are working especially hard fop the apoint rnent of Mr. Armfield, have been in com munication with lawyers in other cities ■ n this district and they ure much en couraged by the manner in which Mr. Armfield's candidacy has been received. Mr. Armfield Endorsed, by Monroe Bar. Monroe Enquirer. At a meeting of the Monroe bar this morning. Frank Armfield, of Concord, was heartily endorsed as a successor of Judge B. F. Long, who died at his home in Statesville Saturday. Mr. Armfield is a native of Monroe, the son of Mrs. E. A. Armfield. and a member of a prominent and influential family, and of course of Democratic lineage. Also Mr. Armfield is admirably fitted for a judge ship, a student well versed in his profes sion. His many friends know he would fill Judge Long's place with ease arid grace. It is the hope of Monroe and Un ion county citizens that Governor Mc- Lean may see fit to give Mr. Armfield the appointment.
