Has Woodrow Wilson
Helped the South?
Action of Congress on Eight Hour
Law Resented by Farmers.
Fort Worth, Texas. —H. N. Pope,
President of the Texas Farmers’
Union, has given out the follow
ing statement, commenting on
the eight-hour law passed by Con
gress Saturday:
“The people of this nation have,
during the past week, passed
through the most humiliating ex
perience this government has ever
endured. A few labor leaders
have stood at the portals of Con
gress demanding that government
give them a ransom or they will
wreck society. This nation, in
stead of meeting the situation
bravely, has delivered the goods in
fear and trembling.
“Our American Congress has
stood within the shadow of the
Goddess of Justice and voted an
increase in wages to four hundred
thousand trainmen, who are the
highest paid laborers in the world,
and never at any time mentioned
the three hundred and fifty thou
sand trackmen who are perhaps the
poorest paid workmen in the world,
and who must subsist almost whol
ly upon the crumbs that the train
men leave upon the table.
“When cotton was selling for six
cents per pound two years ago and
poverty stalked over the Southland,
causing a greater financial loss to
the Southern plow-men than the
freeing of slaves, Congress confess
ed inability to cope w-ith the situ
ation and stepped aside, letting this
awful burden fall upon the backs
of the tillers of the soil. The or
ganized plowmen pleaded with
Congress for relief, but were
told that it would not be constitu
tional for government to undertake
to fix the price of cotton or to ad-

Congress Refused to Help the Cot
ton Growers of the South.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 11, 1916.
Mr. Roger A. Dewar,
Atlanta, Georgia.
You remember and every cotton
grower in*Georgia and other cotton
growing states remembers our sit
uation in the fall of 1914, when
cotton prices shot to the bottom.
You remember the meetings and
conferences held in Macon, Atlan
ta and other cities, and the earnest
appeals that went up to Washing
ton for help to relieve our situa
tion.
Did we get it? Not enough to
notice, although they did hold us
in suspense a w-hile before they let
us drop. It didn’t take them very
long, however, after a few million
bales had passed out of the hands
of the growers at $30.00 per bale
or thereabouts, to rig up a Marine
Insurance business that insured
that same cotton for cotton brok
ers on a basis of $60.00 to $70.00
per bale.
Knowing all these things, and
they are absolutely indisputable
facts, if I were Mr. Wilson, I would
not have the nerve to look a cotton
grower in the face and ask him to
vote for me. So long as we are
slaves to any political party we get
nothing and the very best thing
that could happen to the State of
Georgia and other Southern States
would be for them to be just as un
certain as to their vote in Presi
dential election as Indiana or New
York. Very truly yours,
II, G. HASTINGS.

COTTON REACHES NEW
HIGH LEVEL THIS WEEK
Cotton passed the 19 cent mark
here Monday.
At the same time cotton seed
sold for S6O a ton—an even three
cents per pound.
Not since the civil war has the
fleecy staple touched such an ex
alted figure. A 500 pound bale
now brings the;producer $95. At
the same time in 1914 it was
worth S3O to $35. The difference
accounts for the prosperity and
the smiles.
The Jackson market this sea
son is one of the best and the re
