Editor News:
With the assurance that you,
have the best interests of bur peo
ple at heart, I ask that you give
space in your columns to this let
ter:
To the members of the Cotton
Association and the farmers of
Coweta county: Shall we be
weighed in the balances and found
wanting? Don’t we all know a
twelve or thirteen million bale
cotton crop this year will mean
financial ruin to the South? Who
are we, and what are we to do
about it? We are of the South,
and no Southerner of intelligence
or influence can be excused. No
man can refute the arguments ahd
facts that have been presented
from platform and press during the
past two months. Is it possible
that a sufficient number of farm
ers Of the Souuh are going to
prove to be either so ignorant, so
selfish or so unconcerned as to
make all efforts at organization a
failure? We have the backing
advice and sympathy of all intel
ligent people in every other avoca
tion, and failure can now conu
only through lack ot support and
confidence of a sufficient numbei
of farmers refusing to come for
ward with their help and influence
In this case, there is no getting
around the truth of the old saying
“He that is not for us is against
us.’’ We do not intend to
harsh. Let us reason with you
Don’t dismiss the matter by say
ing, "I have made my plans; this
is a free country; I have the right
and will do as I please," but listen
Nine million bales of cotton will
bring a great deal more money
than 12,000,000. Can't you wel
afford to reduce your part, and
so doing increase your crops
grain and hay? The surplus
these crops will always sell,besides
costing a great deal less to grow
and harvest.' I have studied this
question closely, and firmly believt
that if we succeed in this organ iza
tion a most prosperous era for tin.
Southern farmer is near at hand;
but if we fail in the mighty effort
that is now being made, we will
entail untold hardships upon our
selves, and force abject poverty
upon our children. It is with us
to decide. And who are "us?” In
this case us is every farmer, land-
owner or renter in Coweta county.
We have all to gain and nothing to
lose by the effort; therefore, for
the sake of our common prosperity,
for the sake of all we love, and in
the name of common sense and
reason,let us try.
Come to our beautiful court
house the first Tuesday in April;
bring your wives, daughters and
sweethearts, We will import tor
your benefit and entertainment an
able, well-posted, patriotic speaker.
There is no politics in this move
ment. It is business to the core—
for the good of all classes, and
sentiment of the highest order,
since a united effort in this great
movement will insure the comfort
and happiness of those we love
best. Let us implore every dis
trict not already organized to do
so without delay. Let every dis
trict have a meeting on Saturday
before the first Tuesday in April,
and have their secretary at the
county meeting when called to or
der at 10 o’clock on April.4, with
statistics to show what every man’s
acreage was in 1904, and what it
will be in 1905, whether he be a
member of the association or not;
actual figures, if possible; but esti
mates, it necessary.
Very sincerely,
W. A. Brannon,
President Coweta County Cotton
Association.

A Chicago Alderman Owes His Elec
tion to Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy.
“I ean heartily! and conscientiously
recommend Chamberlain's Gongli Rem
edy for affections of the throat and
lungs," says Ron. John Slienick, 220 So.
Peoria St., Chicago. "Two years ugo
during a political campaign, L caught
cold after being overheated, which ir
ritated my throat and I was finally com-
polled to stop, as l could not s;»eak
aloud. In my extremity a friend ad
vised me to uHe Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. I took two doses that after
noon and could not believe my senses
when I found the next morning the in
flammation had largely subsided. I took
several doses that day, kept right ou
talking through the campaign, and I
thank this medicine that I won my seat
in the Council.” This remedy is for

FROM 8EN0IA ENTERPRISE-GAZETTE
Mrs. Z. Greene, of Newnan, has-
been spending several days here
the guest of her father, Mr, W. T.
Arnall.
The public generally will l»c
pleased to learn that the postoffice
department positively forbids R.
F. D. mail carriers tampering with
whiskey in any way. A carrier in
one of our neighboring towns was
discharged a few days ago because
he had been taking orders for it.
Good business people everywhere
are frowning down on this wretch
ed stuff.
Those who heard it, say that
Judge R. W. Freeman’s charge to
the grand jury Monday morning
was one of the ablest and most
sensible ever delivered to a jury.
Not as an extremist, but as a sen
sible, sound man, he charged the
jury against card playing and
gambling of every kind, against
the evils ot concealed weapons,and
he came down heavy on the dread
ful blind tiger business. He said
that nearly every crime committed
was traceable either directly or in
directly to whiskey.
Annual meeting of Farmers’ and
Merchants’ Bank, of Senoia, was
held last Thursday, On accouni
of increased business the directors
were petitioned by the people to
increase the capital stock; and, af
ter a conference with those inter
ested it was decided to issue-$25,-
000 worth of new stock. This
bank has been a great success,
having paid the original stock
holders far more money than they
invested. The demand for the
stock is so great that it will be
largely over subscribed.
Mr. J. Austin Blanton, of near
Haralson, lost his barn by fire
Sunday night. In the barn was
twenty bales of shreded teed, three
fine mules and four hundred bush
els of corn, all of which was lost.
The mules were fastened up in
stalls and it was impossible to get
them out. It is supposed that
some one set fire to the barn. A
man who is mean enough to set
fire to a barn where there is live
stock kept, is none too good to be
burned with them. Austin is an
inoffensive, hard working young
man and no one can imagine why
the deed was committed,
The workman who watches
clock can not watch his work.

Incredible Brutality.
It would have been incrodiblft brutal
ity if CHels. F. Leniberger, of Syracuse
N. Y., bad not done tl<e best bo coutd

says, “out a fearful gash over his eye,

which quickly healed it and saved his
ey.;.” Good for burns and ulcers too.
