Of all the trusts and combines- and their name is legion ilie Cotton Trust has hurt our Southern country more than all th«e rest < iniblttetl. To illustrate: Our femurs sold in Cedartown this past year about 8,000 bales for about 10 cents, middling basis, or a total of $400,000. A few days ago a local cotton mill paid M cents for 200 bales of Os and Us, or i.bout 15 cents middling frnsis At this price our farmers would have received $000,0(10 for their co.t-jn,?2r> more per bale or $200,000 more than they till! set. 4’liis TllOO.OOO litis gone into (he pookets of the speculators. Where It Will not, do unyhody any good, for they won’t even pay tuxes on it. if the farmers had received this moneey.tluy would have bought, from the blacksmiths, the carpenters, the school teachers, the' preachers, the lawyers, the doctors and merchants, nml •"the whole community would be $200,000 better off. Hun tills calculation back for the short space of ten years, and you will find that the speculators have kept away from Polk county more dollars than the sum total of our taxable property. Every dollar brought to Polk county enriches and every dollar kept away impoverishes us as a people, no matter what our calling, trade or profession may be. The Cotton Trust has spread itself like an octopus over the whole cotton belt; its sinuous tentacles cover this whole Southland of ours, with here and there a blood-thirsty; Shylockian sucker to absorb the dollars which we so dearly earned by the sweat of our brows. That’s where the dollars have gone that, should have fed and clothed and educated our children. That’s where the dollars have gone that could have improved our lands, beautified our homes,and made life on the farm worth living. That’s where the dollarq have gone which we would have spent for the wares of our neighbors In other trades and professions, making us all pros perous and happy. There’s Where the dollars have gone that God Almighty Intended for us by honest toil to lay \i\i, so that, in old ago we might, not. go down in disgrace to n pauper’s grave. What, are we going to do-about It? Sit. down like cowauls, and let this thing go on forever and ever? God forbid! Good men lik< Messrs. J. S. Stubbs, C. A. Wood, I). J. Lowry and P. A. Hunt have combined their influence and money in strong effort to break down the trust and get a better price for our cotton; like men In other mar kets have done the same thing, only to go down In defeat as they did. Why? Because the Cotton Trust is so well organized that one of its,mem bers will not buy cotton in the''other’s territory, and it has stifled all compe titioij. This Trust has brought, about a condition which forces the cotton mills to agree to buy cotton only from them. It has become impudent en ough to tell us that we can’t sell our cotton to anybody else, and to boycott, the cotton of small buyers whom It, cannot absolutely control. it seems impossible for a new cot ton trust to organize strong enough to break down the old one. Even .if it did, wo might still be at the mercy of our enemy. Don’t seem to bn ‘any hope for us, you say? Oh, yes, there is. We* got the remedy in our own hanjjs, and It will bo our own fault if we don’t use it. About one year ago the Farmers 'Union set the price at 11 cents, and we sold it for nearly that much in spite of a thirteen and a half million bale crop. The speculators are too smart to let it be quoted that high, but the mills are paying now' 15 cents mid dling basis. The mills are selling their future product on a basis of 1 to 18 cents per pound cost for the cotton they will consume. The world needs and will be oblig ed to have every bale of this year’s crop. It is worth 15 cents per pound to raise it. Then why—why in the name of High Heaven—shouldn’t the Farmers’ Union set the price at 15 cents and get it? The present price of the present crop is enough to convince any sane man that we can do it. The Farmers' Union is rapidly growing stronger in organization and numbers every day, It is building hundreds ofwarehouses in the South and will have them ready for this crop. Don’t throw' your cotton on the market and force the price down this fall. If it is selling below the price set, put it in the warehouse, draw money on it from the bank, pay up your creditors, but don’t sell a pound O. E. MARSHALL THE UP-TOWN DRUGGIST. Phone No. 5.

The speculators are uneasy for fear we shall I able to prlte them loose from the teat which has fat - i fined them for so long. They pretend to lie our friends, and at the same time try to discoifrage our efforts by telling us wfe can’t slick to each other, And by ever;, falsehood and hypocrisy at their command, thfey try to destroy our confidence in any man who is wil ling and competent to advise and counsel with us. Whenever any man darts to ex- jiOse this infamous Trust, in public by tongue or pen, they say: “Oh, yes, I am with you against the Trust, but you must not jump on the speculators, you'll set the country against the town, and the town against the coun try.” You can spot the emissaries of the Trust by just such talk every time. It’s all rot. They whnt you to bo quiet, so they can keep their hands in our pockets. The town and the country have learned that their interests are mutual. The farmers want a good price for their products, so they can pay a good price for what they buy from the town, and all be prosperous together. ^ T have lived thirty years on the farm, twelve yeard in the city and town. I have experienced their trials and tribulations, joys and sorrows. I have good reason to love the life and people of the country, city and town. Last year 1 joined the Farmers’ Un ion. At their request I have spoken and written for their interest at vari ous times signing my articles, “Farm ers’ Union.” I used this nom de plume for the purpose of doing all the good I could with as little notoriety as possible. Somp were interested enough to ask for the name of the author. I don’t recollect, ever saying no thing that 1 had to take back or writing anything that I was ashamed to sign. So here and hereafter, 1 shall sign myself, yours for the good of the country, city and town, JOHN I. FULL WOOD. Wa in l*< Health for Year Ira W.
