The letter to Mr. Williams, which

Aniericus, Ga„ Oct. 29, 1909.
on. .lohn Skelton Williams, Rich
mond, Va.:
Dear Sir—It was with a feeling of
ore than ordinary pleasure by the
ibllc generally, and the business in
vests in particular, that the news
as received in Aniericus that you
ere once more re-established in con-
ol of the management and the desti
nes of the Seaboard properties.
The people of tills city and adjo
int, territory, whose future Is so In-
issoltilily connected with that of the
-aboard Air Une, well remember the
ersonal interest manifested by you
nd your associates In their welfare
t the time you purchased the old
eorgla & Alabama railroad and niado
one of tlio divisions of the greater
cahoard System, then being molded
ito shape in your hands.
The^ feel that with these great
roperties once, more directed by you
lere will be the same protection ac-
ordeil their Interests as in former
ears, when through your construc-
ive genius this great trunk line was
elng brought Into existence through
tie consolidation of numerous small
nd weak roads.
It Is with this sentiment actuating
hem that they avail themselves of
his opportunity to once more express
heir good will to you personally and
o the S. A. U railway.
It was under your management of
he properties In question that the
Seaboard shops were established at
his point, the people of Americas de
lating property of the value of $20,000
o that end.
In recent years these shops have
iceii operated to a less and less de-
;ree. We trust, 08 business men, that
ondltlons are such, or soon will he.
hat more work can lie given to the
fniericus shops, restoring the force to
somewhat nearer Its old proportions
mil Increasing the prosperity of the
rtty accordingly.
It Is also the hope of the merchants
»f the city that there will be no change
n the other conditions surrounding
die Seaboard's relations with this cit>>
that the crews now located here will
be maintained, with this as their place
nf residence.
We recognise the Importance o
these factors to the business ot the
city. In appreciation of the past ef
forts of the Seaboard In behalf o
Aniericus, and believing that BUch a
wise and liberal policy will mark its
future operations, we pledge ourselves
'o the principle of reciprocity and will
evidence our appreciation of Its e -
forts in our behalf by a generous pol
icy toward It In the matter of freights
•nil all else that arlsee In the relations
ot the corporation and the public here
It proved an expensive expenditure
for many here, hut It was a valid obli
gation a ''promise to pay" and every
maker of such contract delivered the
goods iu a manner satisfactory to the
purchaser.
The difference in the price of cot
ton then and at the date of delivery
was three cents a pound or $13 a bale
Immediate needs.
The Immediate and lasting effect of
the arrangement perfected yesterday
will lie to stiffen the holding move
ment, already well-developed in this
state
It is claimed the Farmers' Union
controls the larger share of the cot
ton crop In Georgia, and a great por-
and every man who sold a hundred
bales at 10 cents and settled the dif
ference with the buyer at 13 cent.-
thus lost $1,500 by the rise in cotton
values. And many here paid that
sum and more.
Not a few farmers sold only a small
portion of their crops—20 to 30 bales
—at 10 cents, for October delivery
and these got off with the payment of
$300 to $1,000.
Others who sold larger quantities
paid more in proportion in settling up
with the buyers.
But the subject of real congratula
tlon Is that every man who thus made
a contract to deliver his cotton paid
the difference, either In whole or In
part, but In tl manner satisfactory to
the other parties to the contract. Not
one "fell down" entirely and repud!
ateil a contrtct that wns made in ut
ipost good faith.
Tho reputation of- these people, for
fair nnd square dealing, is thus fully
sustained.
For several years past It has been
customary among several of the larger
farmers to thuB Bell for fall delivery a
portion of their growing crops. The
price was nlways satisfactory, and If
values ruled lower at the harvest time
the farmer was all to the good
Usually they made considerable money
In such sales.
This year, however, the price of co.-
lon In the fall was away above the
price at which they had Previously
sold their bales. But they paid the
difference. Not one single claim, It Is
said, was repudiated.
tion of that is sate in buildings con
trolled by the union.
Hitherto, there lias been pressing
danger that the necessity of meeting
obligations would force farmers
withdraw cotton and sell It at a price
lower than the market will subse
quently range.
The latest movement means that
this contingency has been forestalled
and that the banks In Georgia have
sufficient faith in high-priced cotton
to advance several million dollars to
add Its trend in that direction.
Ths is the first time in the history
of the state a movement of this na
ture has attained such universal
scope. The development Is hailed by
officials and members of the Farmers’
Union as shedding significant light
u)ion the future.

Agricultural CoUege Bonds Ordered
Sold by the City.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 30.—Banks iu
Georgia have agreed to loan, upon
cotton stored In Farmers' Union
Warehouses iu tills Btate, a sum ag
gregating several million dollars, to
tile end that the commodity thus
financed may be held until the price
readies 15 cents.
That was the announcement made,
yesterday on Behalf of the Farmers’
Union by R. F. Duckworth, former
state president, and now chairman of
the national executive committee.
The agreement has actually been
executed. Mr. Duckworth says, and It
will go Into effect today.
The hanks subscribing to the ar
rangement will advance money up to
a basis of 13 cents a pound valuation.
For this accommodation, It is under
stood, Interest is charged on a basis
of 8 iier cent.
The arrangement will become effec
tive at once, so that members owning
cotton stored In warehouses and
pressed for funds, may approach the
banks designated by their officials nnd
obtain sufficient funds to relieve their

on favorably by the people at the same
time the public school und paving
bonds were acted on. are to be sold
by the Finance Committee ot Council,
either to the Bond Commission or to
such other party as may desire to
Invest In them.
This action was ordered by Council
at Its meeting on Wednesday night.
Alderman Allen called attention to
the fact that the city is paying Inter
est on $10,000, liorrowed from the local
banks for the Agricultural College,
and tho bonds were lying unsold. He
slated that the Bond Commission were
willing, as he understood It, to take
the entire Issue at par, and held that
they should he sold, the city's in
debtedness to the banks paid and the
Interest saved.
Council took this view of the mat
ler and ordered the Finance Commit
tee to sell the bonds.

Selling a bran new stock at a sacrifice at this season of the
year, and in the face of a rising market, sounds unreasonable.
We are going to make some great changes; some of the lines
that are now carried by us will be discontinued, others wffl
be added, some of the merchandise will be absolutely worth
less to us there, and this is the reason we are going to force
this sale.
We propose to sell this stock no matter what price It takes
to sell It. There are hundreds of merchants that would be
glad to own a stock at the price we are going to sell this one
at retail, and our reason for not selling to a merchant very*
anxious to buy, was because he did not have the money.
