FOR FIFTEEN CENTS
Farmers are Urged to Ho'd
Cotton by Convention,
BANKERSPLEDGESUPPORT
As Means of Reduction Diversification
of Crops is Urged — Sensational
Advices Sent Out from New
York.
By a unanimous vote the Southern
Cotton Association in session at New
Orleans adopted the report of its com
mittee on lidding, recommending that
the balance cf the crop of 1905-6 ho
held for fifteen cents a pound, A
joint committee of hankers and farm
ers from each state and territory is
to carry the plan into effect. Co-op
eration with the growers of sea Island
cotton Is provided for, long staple cot
toa to he held at 24 cents.
That the sum of work of the South
srn Cotton Association was to he a
declaration for fifteen cents cotton
with reduction in the form of diversi
fication was practically settled at the
Friday afternoon session of the con
vention when Chairman Dancy of the
committee cn holding, in advance of
the presentation of its report, an
nounced that the committee had unan
imously decided favorably on that
proposition. The announcement, pro
voked the convention to a whirlwind
of cheering.
The premature announcement of the
conclusions of the committee was
forced by advices from New York to
the affiect that newspaper dispatches
and Wall street reports printed and
circulated there indicated a lack of
harmony among the elements making
up the convention and dissensions
over the 15 cents proposition.
R. Dancy, chairman of the holding
committee, ’ then said that in view cf
the reports which had been circulated .
il! the east of dissension in the con
venticn, he desired to announce in
advance of its report that the com
mittee was unanimous in its decision
t to ask , the .. convention to stand by the
proposition that the southern’farmers
will hold their cotton for 15 cents.
Chairman Walker of Sparta, Ga.,
who presided over the meeting of the
bankers, then announced that the
bankers had enthusiastically adopted
the following resolutions:
“The southern hankers in conven
tion congratulate the Southern Cotton
Association on the success which it
has already attained in its efforts to
maintain a fair and equitable price
for the south’s staple crop, and rec
ognizing that the interests of. the far
mers, hankers and business men of
tile south are inseparable; therefore,
be it
“Resolved, first, That we, represen
tatives of southern banks, hereby re
new our pledge of moral and financial
support to the Southern Cotton Asso
ciation, in their efforts to carry out
this purpose; and second, we urge
the importance of a better and more
complete system of warehousing and
caring for cotton.”
Chairman J. H. White presented the
report of the committee on foreign
trade relations. It indorsed that made
hy the standing committee, The lat
ter signed by cx-Senator McLaurin,
as chairman, said the committee met
President Roosevelt and cabinet offi
cers in Washington after the last con
vention, and explained to him the de
sire for a commission to enlarge the
cotton trade in foreign countries.
By invitation Secretary Blackwell
of the National Dinners’ Association
made an address to the convention.
“There are not 300,00-0 hales of cot
ton yet to gin in the entire south,”
he said. “More than 50 per cent of
the gins everywhere are closed. Many
of the others have only five to seven
bales to gin. Dry goods have been
constantly advancing in price during
the year past, and we have only to'
stand together to get the reasonable
price the association has asked for
cotton.”

Graft in Little Things.
Graft is not to be measured by size
alone. The little grafter Is just as
bad In his way as the big grafter who
accumulates his thousands and hun
dreds of thousands in a manner that
will not hear scrutiny. If graft, is to
be abolished the work of abolition
must permeate all hranchss of society,
for graft is worse than the dandelion
or bureock, or cockleburr root.
An eastern physician writes that he
has been offered a commission by the
proprietor of a “health resort” on
every patron sent. That is graft.
A Now York physician was ofiered
a commission of 10 per cent, on all
business sent to a crematory firm. At
first thought this might seem like a
legitimate offer, but when one con
siders the status of the family physic
ian it takes on the earmarks of a
very contemptible hit of graft.
Traveling men knew full well that
a small “present” will often Influence
a department buyer to favor a certain
line of goods, but it Is gratifying to
know that the traveling salesmen are
beginning to fight that sort of thing.
But the buyer who engages in it is
guilty cf a very contemptible graft.
In our eagerness to abolish graft
in high places, we should not over
look the “little grafting” that abounds
on every side. Every species of graft
must he put under the ban if the
national character is to be cleansed
and given a chance to improve.—The.
Commoner.

UNSCONCIOUS FOISONINC,
llow It Often Happens From Coffees
“I had no idea,” writes a Duluth
man, “that it was the coffee I had been
drinking nil my life that was responsi
ble for the headaches which were
growing upon me, for the dyspepsia
that no medicines would relieve, and
for the acute nervousness which un
fitted me not only for work but also
for the most ordinary social functions.
“But at last the truth dawned upon
me, I forthwith bade the harmful bev
erage a prompt farewell, ordered in
some Postum and began to use it. The
good effects of the new food drink were
apparent within a very few days. My
headaches grew less frequent, and de
creased-in violence, my stomach grew
strong and able to digest my food with
out distress of any kind, my nervous
ness- has gone and I am able to enjoy
life with my neighbors and sleep sound
ly o’nights. My physical strength and
nerve power have increased so much
that I can do double tile work I used
to do, and I feel no undue fatigue af
terwards.
“This improvement set in just as
soon as the old coffee poison had so
worked out of my system as to allow'
the food elenrents iu the Postum to get
a hold to build me up again. I cheer

SANF0RD ^acquitted.
After Short Deliberation Jury Declares
Him ‘‘Not Guilty” of the Murder
of Oeorge Wright.
The Sanford Jury at Rome, Ga., re
turned a verdict of “not guilty” at
7:40 Saturday night. When the ver
dict was an»ounced the defendant
was brought into court, and after the
reading of the verdict pronouncing
him not guilty he rose from his seat
and shook hands with Judge Wright,
and said: “Judge, I have made friends
with the world."
After shaking hands with Judge
Wright, he walked across to the fore
man of the jury, and, with tears in
his eyes, said: “You don't know how
happy you have made me.” The fore
man replied: “Vince, get the children,
take care of them and live a different
llfo. I was raised without a father
and mother myself.” To which San
lord answered: “I will do that; I
am going to live as worthy of them as
I possibly can."
Sanford then shook hand3 with and
thanked the remainder of the jury,
Afterwards he passed out of the court
room with his brothers and with them
left at once for Augusta.
It is seldom that a case In Floyd

say that the verdict meets with at
least an average general approval,

JUDGE SPEER IS SUSTAINED.
City of Macon Cannot Sentence Pris
oners to the County Chpingang.
The supreme court of Georgia has,
in the case of Pearson vs. Wimbish,
practically sustained the position
taken by Judge Emory Speer -of the
United States district court for the
southern district of Georgia, to the
effect that the recorder’s court in the
city of Macon cannot, without violat
ing the state and federal constitution,
sentence a man to the Bibb county
chaingang for violation of a city or
dinance.
It was the Jamison case that made
the matter famous. This was first
tried in the United States court, and
the United States supreme court held
that the remedies afforded by the
state courts should first be exhausted.
Then the case of Pearson was taken
up originally in the state courts with
a view to making a test. Pearson,
who is a negro, was tried for the vio
lation of certain city ordinances of
Macon, and was sentenced on October
30th last, to serve three months at
hard labor upon the county chaingang
of Bibb county.
The supreme court states that the
recorder had a perfect right to sen
tence Pearson to confinement in the
city police station or to the city chain
gang, provided the city maintains a
chaingang of its own, but that no
sentence to the county chaingang
could be given. In concluding its de
cision, the supreme court says:
“The fact, however, that the ac
cused has been illegally sentenced
will not result in his absolute dis
charge from custody, where a legal
sentence can be Imposed, Direction
is given that the applicant be not con
fined in the county chaingang, but be
taken therefrom and carried berore
the recorder to he sentenced in ac
cordance with law.”
The meaning of the foregoing is
very clearly to the effect that the city
of Macon will have to establish a
chaingang of its own, or the sentence
of its recorder’s court will be limited
to fines and confinement in the city
station house.

'GROWERS CONVENE
.
Southern Cotton Association
Meets in New Orleans.
NOTABLE SPEECHES MADE
President Jordan Reviews Situation i n
Interesting Annual Addrccs—Pro
ceedings of First Day’s
Session. i
With a largo and representative at
tendance from the cotton growing
states, the Southern Cotton Growers’
j ' Association opened a throe days’ sea-'
sion in New Orleans Thursday.
The hall was crowded when Pres
ident Jordan called the convention to
order. A feature that attracted at
teution was the presence of a negro
delegation from Hinds county, Missis
sippi. Secretary Woods of the Mls
j sissippi association chid they were reg
ular delegates and entitled to seats.
: President Jordan was given an ova
tion. Invocation was offered by Rev.
Dr. Beverly Warner. Ex-President
John M. Parker of the New Orleans
cotton exchange delivered an address
of welcome in which he said the spec
i ulator is the greatest enemy the far
mer has. He counseled the farmer
not to “kill” the golden goose by put
ting up prices so high as we will soon
have an active competition from ether
countries.
Mr. Foster, member of the Louisi
ana railroad commission, and a large
cotton planter, responded. When Mr.
Foster concluded President Jordan de
livered his address on the southern,
farmer.
President Jordan reviewed at some
length the objects of the association
and its accomplishments, He re
ferred to the discovery of dishonest
practices in the bureau of cotton sta
tistics in the department of agricul
ture at Washington and the fight
made by the association for purity
there. He then discussed the reasons
for the demand made by the associa
.
tion—11 cents for cotton.
“It has been ascertained by inves
tigation,” he said, “and has not yet
been denied, that at the prevailing
prices of the manufactured products
this season, spinners could easily
have paid 12 cents for the entire
crop to the growers and declared div
idends on their investments, On
this basis a crop of 10,000,000 hales
should have brought the producers
$600,00!VJOO. It we demand and re
ceive 15 cents for the balance of the
unsold portion of the crop, basis mid
dling, at interior points, we will still
he unable to average the whole crop
at 12 cents a pound, due to the unwar
ranted low prices at which more than
one-half of the crop has been sold.
The proposition to hold the balance
of the crop at a maximum figure of
15 cents is, therefore, based' upon
conservative reasoning surrounding
the present legitimate laws of demand
and supply.
Concluding his address, President
Jordan urged the wisdom and neces
sity for compact organization among
the growers in every cotton producing
county in the south.
Mr. Irvine cf Georgia said exten
sive Italian immigration would ulti
mately result in Italian possession of
southern lands. He thought the en
ergies of the south ought to be direct
ed to the education of its youth in
the advantages of farming and to the
sending of city boys to the fields.
Mr. Smith of South Carolina said
that the south during the past year
had made all the cotton needed with
out difficulty, and with negro labor,
and there was no occasion for dis-j
cussing the question of securing ad
ditional labor assured until the southern enriching farj re]
mers were an
turn on the cotton they were able t<
raise.
At the conclusion of tha discussion
Hon. D. A. Tompkins of Charlotte, N
