The more I study the price of cotton and how it Is manipulated, the more 1 become convinced that, the only hope of the farmers Is to put themselves In a condition to hold their cotton be fore it Is made. Then put it In the hands of a warehouse that can prop erly grade -it and hold it until they get their price. If practically all of our cotton farm ers would do this, they could get the worth of their cotton at home and let the buyer pay his own freight. As it Is now, the spot price of our cotton is not fixed by the spot price In New York, but by the January future pri ces fixed by those gambling scoundrels in New York. And for reasons known to themselves, every little speculator the country over controls the market which has been allotled to him as per orders from New York. r ery day all over the South they are making the farmers take a price for pecember spot cotton baaed on a speculative January price. For instance, la^t Saturday the January futures (middling hnsis) opened at 10.97; Cedartown added 50 points, on account of difference in ,grade, and paid about 11.50 for How ell's No. 5, New York middliug is exactly the same as our Howell’s No. 7, and on that date was worth 12.10 spot in Now York; according to the last revision of grades' by the New York Cotton Exchange, Howell’s No. 5 is worth 50 points above New York middling. So on the New York quo tations last Saturday, Howell's No. 5 was worth 12.10 plus 50 cents, which equals 12.60 or $5.50 per bale more than it was bringing on the Btreets of Cedartown—or, for that matter any other like Southern market. “Freight,” you .say! Well, take off the freight to New York,(blit you know we don’t send it there.) That is 12.60 mihus 54 cents, equals 12.06, or $2.80 per bale more .than it was bringing. “They all do it," yes, I know “they all” do us, and that is what we arc kusHlug about. “They all do it” Is a darned pfibr* excuse for robbing the farmers of from $2.80 to $5.50 per bale. in thiB fight for 15 cent cotton the nowspapers, merchants, nearly all the people and some of the banks are on our side. But the cotton speculators had been running things so long that they have put up the fight of their lives to retain their supremacy. Their first move was to tie up the money of the country, well knowing that the scarcity of money would force prices down. They succeeded so well in this that a panic was brought on during the most prosperous era the country has ever known. There was no reason for this panic except that our medium of exchange of products was locked up. It was, morally, one of the blackest crimes ever perpetrated on any people. Not satisfied with this, they sent out orders through great bankers and financiers to “not loan money ,on cot ton,” and to close out the loans al ready placed on that security. From the very opening of this cot ton year they have kept futures from one-half cent to one and one-half cents below spots for the purpose of forcing down spot prices. Not satisfied with this, they have been making everybody who sold cot ton take a price based on future pri ces for coming months, these same future prices having been fixed by their rascally, manipulations. In spite of all this, under anything like a Just order of things, the farm ers who can hold will get 15 cents for cotton. But the small farmer who needed it worst has already been rob bed of the sweat of his brow. If you farmers think that the fight for the real value of your cotton Is nearly won, you are badly mistaken. You have made splendid progress, but the war has just begun. Hon. Thos. E. Watson( wants green backs issued, Senator McLaurin wants Treasury notes loaned on cotton, Speaker Cannon has promised to help make speculating in cotton unlaw ful. All of these are good and should be made effective, but the power of money is so great that I fear none will be enacted into law. Nearly all the bankers of this coun try will oppose any la w to i.i ;ra»ise the amount of our money except through them. They know that more money means cheaper money, there fore higher wages and better prices for products. (Continued on 8th page.)
