THE TARVERS’ UNION
The Preside tit Calls a National
Meeting to Help Stock Men.
Charles Barrett, president of
the National Fanners’ Union lias
issued a call- for a national muss
meeting of stock men arid grain
growers, to be hold in Springfield,
Mo,, May 12. h
This wilt be practically the
first national meeting of tfie men
engaged in stock and grain rais¬
ing r.xiid under the auspices of
the union. Practically - every
state of the middle West, the
Northwest, Pacific slope and
some of the Southern states will
be represented in this rm-otiug.
“We have been holding Si?"*'

ret-t. Paid .now it is time‘the uu

the stock men and grain grower,,
They baEve their troubles and
grievances Just like the* cotton
grower, and as many
belong to the organization, and i
want to help them if J cat;.
“1 expect a very large attend
mice at Springfield on |b»y 1.2,
and while I can not forecast pos¬
sible action then, it is safcfo <ny
that important matters will e.om>
op for attention.
Since President Barrett's an¬
nouncement that -lie will retire
as president of the union at the
national meeting in September,
he has been deluged with pro¬
tests from all parts of the coun¬
try. While he is deeply grate¬
ful for this mark of ev^em and
confidence, he is fixed ~M 1 0

Henry Clay never reached
greater heights of oratory
than when he was talking of
Kentucky hemp and Ken¬
tucky women. In one speech
in congress he told how the
venerable Colonel Shelby—
hero of King’s Mountain, had
his family clad by the labor
of its own hands, how the
spinning wheel and the loom
were in motion at daybreak,
and how the matron delighted
to show her friends the stores
of goods laid aside for Iter
daughters when they married.
“Let the painted dolls of our
cities sneer at these things, ”
he exclaimed, “the daughters
of Isaac Shelby, whether at
the spinning wheel or in the
drawing room, possess a real
dignity that would, of its own
force, put to flight a whole
squadron of these semi-men
called dandies.”
The financial institutions of
the south have demonstrated
their ability to withstand a
panic. They went through
the trying times of 1907 and
1908 without any-trouble, and
they are now in the best of
condition. The south is tire
safe, sane and conservative
portion of this union.
The treaury department has
decided to “beautify,, the one
dollar bill; but, under certain
conditions it has always look¬
ed as big and beautiful as a
June sunrise.
The musically inclined portion
of Spring Place’s populace had
singing at the Baptist church
Sunday afternoon. New books
were used and quite an enjoya
hie time had.
