HOT SHOT Tom and Jerkv. k j If there ever vm time when unity of action should be the watchword of the hour, thst time has now come to the Farmers Union. lam not one of its members. By reason of being a lawyer I am not permitted to join, but not in all their number have they a single member who wishes more for their success than I. To you members of the Lnion I wish to say that the fight of your existence is now on to a finish. The Wall Street speculator and the cot ton buying world is arrayed against you, You have fixed- 15 f as the price on our cotton and this has caused an in dignation on the part of the “bears”. Not because your cotton is not worth per pound, but because you have dared to say what you demand for it. The purchasing world has so long fixed the price that they now grow in dignent that you should say what cotton should bring. We know well that the law of sup ply and demand regulates the price of any commodity, but with the facili ties of the Farmers Union to gather information, you have learned that with the present demand for cotton and with the prospective supply from this crep and the cost of production taken in consideration your cotton is worth 15c per pound. Will you get 15# for your cotton? That depends absolutely on your fidelity to the Uuion. Your organi zation is splendidly officered Nation ally, state, County and district. Have faith and confidence in their judgement in fixing the price of our cotton, st, md shoul ler to slr-cldcr with each other and you will win without a doubt. Don’t sell for less thun the price fixed by the Union. Your leaders will devise a plan whereby you can keep your cotton off the market, so don't become panic stricken and depress the market by throwing up your hands and surrend ering to your enemy and offering your cotton lor sale at a price less than fixed by the Union. Nothing has helped the farmer as much as the Union and to loose this fight means disaster for the organiza tion, so let every tnember.be true and faithful in the fight. For me, I shall do. and am doing all that I can to help win t e fight. Victory for the Union means vic tory for all of us. Every body should fall in line and di all they can to win the fight which ij being made for 15f cotton. If any body, MATTERS NOT WHO THEY ARE. hinders the Union in tnis fight, they are enemies to the best interest of the South and the sooner we find out who they are the better it will be tor us all. I have heard such talk as boy-cot tlng every member of the Union and not doallng with him or buying his cotton at anv price. To every member of the Union I would say, locate the man or men, if there be any, who have such senti ments because they are your deadli est enemy. That, kind ot talk is all popy-rot. Hold your cotton and demand the price fixed by the Union and you will get it. Her Ancient Sacred Cat.
