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 plowmen than the
freeing of slaves, Congress confess
ed inability to cope with the situ
ation and stepped aside, letting this
awful burden fall upon the backs
of the tillers of the soil. The
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.
t 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 while 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 growers at $30.00 per bale
or thCTeabouts, 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 Stare 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,
H, G. HASTINGS.

The Coffee County fair
NOVEMBER
14-15-16-17 and 18
For twelve years this worthy itistitu=
tion has had but two motives, —to build Coffee
County and South Georgia and to please its
thousands of loyal patrons.
This year, it will be far more attractive and in
teresting from every standpoint.
Every foot of the large exhibit hall has been re
served for the school community and club displays.
The Woman’s Department will speak for itself
with a display that will enthuse and inspire all who look
upon it*
The display of colts, pigs, cattle and poultry will
be larger and better than ever.
Tuesday, the opening date will be featured by
John Robinson’s Ten Big Shows, the world renowned
circus. Special reduction at the gate on this day.
Wednesday, the second day will be featured by
a One Mile parade of the county’s school children who
will be given free admission for this occasion.
The record crowds will be entertained for the
week by racing, airship flights, and one of the “swellest”
midways ever brought to the South.
Take a day off and come. You willl never regret it.
