Take the bet with you that you can
not tell what will be the policy of the
Unitgd States government towards
Mexico at any time in the near future.
It: has heen some six or w@ight years
since qiu- vessels went to Vera Cruz
afiql,taid a few words on the subject of
our. side of affairs in Mexico. It has
be,,e,i:fiaye,n longer than that since it
up‘pg;rgd. névce,ssa_ry to double guard on
the border, and still we have no peace
with Mexico. The ordinary individual
should soon: believe that there can be
no peace with our sister to the south.
@EN&QBLE COTTON MARKETING.
People who still grow cotton in Geor
gla.are being offered something new in
marketing plan which is destin'ed to:
revolutionize income from this crop in |
the near future. This is a remarkable,
most unbelieveable statement because
it is made in the face of a thousand
failures—so many of them that the
sensible cotton grower has come to the ‘
belief that nothing can be done to as
sure him top prices for his crop.
But he should not look at it in this
light, A ltli_ou_sgnd failures may have
been made in th@ past, but that is no
reason hy the very next effort may
not prqve a success. The Sapirp plan
is Bimply a pooling of the crop to be
sold under the growers agreement
with his fellow grower. There need
bé no beétier plan. The only thing
which is fu‘; be prossed and pressed
80 'strongiy that the cotton grower
will be put to the supreme test is the
mp.tier of keeping his agreem@ent on
the selling terms, LAw
Georgla cotton growers are not asked
in this plan to enter into something
new in this state. The plan is al
ready being followed strictly and in
business manner in the Peach Growers
Exchange. It is being followed in the
South Georgia Watermelon Growers
Association this year for the first time,
and it has proven thus far a mest suc
cesslul undertaking. Both these asso
ciations have made possible a busi
ness which otherwise would have been
& complte fillure. The peach grower
er never made any money till he learn
ed cooperative marketing. The water
melon grower has never made any
mouey till this season when he joined
his neighbor and put his crop through
on a cooperative basis. And we are
expecting the Sapiro plan of market
i_ng cotton to prove just as important
to the grower of the staple, because |
he has reached the point where he
must do something—must listen at
some sort of business leader in the
matter of finding the markeet with his
pfoducts. He is ready to do his part
now more than he has ever been in
his life, and so we believe those who
are here working for cooperative mar
keting of the cotton crop are going to
make a success of it.
The cotton growers of Crisp county
will be offered this new plan sooi.
We sincerely hope they will find it s
safe, business like proposition to
which they can tie their faith, because
we want them to succeed with their
first strong worth while effort to
launch a cooperative marketing sys
tem for theeir chief product. If they suc
ceed, they must take hold and put
their faith into the enterprise. They
have nothing to invest which will
amount to a great deal in cost. They
only have to stick together in the mut-1
‘ter of selling their cotton. This is the
principle, and the whole thing.
It will be just as possible to handle
the cotton crop in this manner ac it
has been to handle other large crops
by cooperative methods. We are told
that the California Fruit Exchang?
}now handles as much as fifty million
dollars worth of fruit in a single sea
son for the members—and the mem
bers are the growers who agree to
have the exchange market their pro
ducts. |
Wa want to see the day when a
| cotton grower cannot succeed until
he has become a member of the mar
keting exchange which must handi-.ul
the entire crop. And we want our
growers to realize that they have the
monopoly on a crop just as really aud
truly as Detroit has the monopoly on
the country’s crop of :Lutomobiles.'
We want our growers to know that itl
's just as possible for them ti de
termine what theay shall have for thel
_crop of cotton as it is for Detroit to]
! determine what it is going Lo get fcr
! its season’s output in new cars, ,
l We want the cotton grower to fix
the price. We want him to s‘op de
pending on the gambling exchanges
and the consumer to dietermine
what he shall have for his cotwon
crop. It is not right ang ;ust and it
it possible to find relief. W 2 sincer2-
1y hope we can find the way in the Sia
piro plan which will be breugzh? to our |
growers within a short time by sane,
sensible people interested in the mat
ter of putting the grower in possession
of their own marketing sclieme.
THE MAJESTY OF THE LAW
We shall not see the full majesty
~of the law until all of our people res
i pect the law. The nation that reaches
‘ the highest degree of development will
)’be that nation which has established
righteous laws and whose every citi
}zen not only observes and respects
these laws but gives his best service
in seeing that they are properly en
forced..
We have come upon a time when all
of our people must recognize that
ours is a government that stands for
the application of law to all conditions
The public detriment arising from
violation of law, followed by immunity
from prosecution and punishment, (-,an]
hardly be overstated. It is foolish to
enact a law which, because of cond
tions that cannot be changed, is in
capable of enforceme‘hl. Qur legisla
tures make our laws, but the people
are responsible for their enforcement.
The constant violation or neglect of
‘ any lflw leads to a demoraiized view of ‘
iull laws and such disrespect for law
rapidly spreads in a community where
the sacredness of law does not exist.
It is distressing to me that mob
viokence in the form of lynching can
continue in our mation. I deplore it
because it often results in the death of
innocent persons and because it makles
chaos of our government by law.
law, .
1 do not for a moment agree in the
view that everything is corruption and
that our people are growing worse.
1 believe in our constituted law, both
state and federal. I am greatly en
couraged with the response which is}
coming from our people in all sections
of the country for the enforcement of
our laws. 1 believe better days are
ahead.
~ And when our already good laws are
supported by a united and enlightened
‘rpublic opinion, based on the fundamen
%tal doctrines of democracy and t_hu'
fear of Almighty God, we shall realize,
what we must all now desire to see—
the law in its majesty.

Supreme court of the United States.

refused previously to teil how har
own children came to their: death.
Mrs. Hudson ulso stated according
to the confession announced that
her husband had frequently
threatened to kill the echildren: that
on one oeeasion he told her that he
would beat them to death and would
kill her if she told it.
Hudson Taken to Macon
Immediately after the confession
was received, Deputy Sheriff A. J.
Denson who was in the jail when Mr.
Black reeeived it and heard the de
tails of it, got in communication
with sheriff Tarver and laid the
situation before him, together with
faets as to a possible lvnching. This’
eaused Mr. Tarver to call Judge Belli
at Cairo andask advice which proved
to be an order moving the prisoner
to Macon where he is probably now
in charge of the Bibb county au
thorities,
Sheriff Tarver instrueted the of
fieers removing Hudson te Bibb coun
'ty not to hapdeuff him until they
were out of the city limits to prevent
attracting attention and probably re
veling the fact that th eprisoner was
being moved which it was b-'lievod}
would lead to the interference of
damaging evidence against him.
