THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. TUESDAY, MAY 7, 1D0T. WITH ASSOCIATION 8. BARRETT. Head of Union Makes An swer to Statements of Harvie Jordan. President Charles S. Barrett, of the National Fanners' Union, has Issued | card which la a reply to the statement recently made by Harvie Jordan, presl dent of the Bouthern Cotton Assocla tlnn. retarding "that trip to Europe! Mr. Barrett's communication fol!owa:| “Mr. Jordan puts himself to a great] deal of trouble occupying two cold umns In the newspapers In trying to convict me of having talked with him concerning the European trip, for which, he aays, be engaged passage for both of us. Mr. Jordan could have saved himself a great deal of trouble by not arguing the question, for 1 would have made no Issue with him on his simple statement of facts. "The truth of the matter Is simply this: "According to Instructions from my people, I went to New York In re sponse to a call from Mr. McCall, who was the president of the last confer ence between the growers and the spin! ners. Mr. Jordan was there also, and] . Incidental to the conference with Mr. McCall, tho International convention at Vienna was discussed. It etas sug gested that both Mr. Jordan and 1 go. and In the conversation that followed 1 expressed my willingness to do so. "Mr, Jordan states that he made ar- Blood Humors Affect the whole system and cause moat diseases and aliments.

They have absolutely no confidence Ip him. The rank and file of the association will never get over his Intimate asso ciation with Mr. Hoadtey, tho Wall street speculator, who boldly proclaim ed that lie was In constant touch with the cotton developments In the South through Mr. Jordan. “The truth Is. Mr. Jordan and a few of his newspaper organs took unlust advantage of the fact that while In New York I treated Mr. Jordan as a gentleman. We were both Invited to the same conference, and naturally conducted myself In a gentlemanly manner toward him. The next thing I heard waa that Mr.. Jordan and hie friends were plastering tho whole South with newspaper reports indicating effect, that I had entirely reversed my position os regards Mr Jordan—for If we were going to Europe with our srml around each other, as plctorlslly pre- Without Alcohol A Strong Tonic Without Alcohol A Body Builder.

I could not have been sincere In all I had said about him previously. No Common Causa. “I have not one word to retract In anything I have heretofore said about Mr. Jordan. I reiterate every state ment. There Is no common cause be tween tbe Bouthern Cotton Association aa at present offlceyed and tbe Farm era' Union. Oura Is an organization of farmers banded together for the sire gle cause of getting the best results possible out of the products of our toll. Theirs Is a nondescript organization of speculators, spinners and apparently everybody else who wants to Join. V Is naturally to the Interest of the spin, ners to buy their cotton aa low aa they can get It. It Is to our Interest to sell for the highest price we can get for It. Whits we propose to be Talr with the spinners, ws see no com mon cause that would Justify us In letting them tlx the price st which we ere to sell and they are to buy. If we had listened to them a year ago the farmers of ths South would have lost millions and millions of dollars, further, the Bouthern Cotton Assocla tlon begged and entreated us to tlx 10 cents as the maximum price for which cotton was jo be held. We In sisted upon 11 cents, positively and firmly refusing to bs led Into the cent trap, which, In our opinion, waa set by Mr. Hoadtey. We stood for U-cent cotton, and ths result Is that every cotton farmer In the South has had an opportunity to get 11 cents for Ills cotton, and today It Is far above that. ' “Will Not Bs Along.” “I have nothing more to say In ref' erenco to the matter of Mr. Jordan's European trip. He la welcome to taka It If he wishes to do so, but I will hot be along. “There Is not a cotton farmer In the South who Is not onto Mr. Jordan's game, and It la no wonder that the record of the past year has been enough to practically annihilate his organization and'dr I vo It out of Geor gia, where Mr. Jordan Is best known, t Is today nothing more than a mem ory. and the farmers of the South are coming to the Farmers' Union so fast that It Is difficult for us to keep'up with Its enrollment. They know wo are not fooling them and that we are an'organisation of farmers standing for the Interest of the fanners. That la the fundamental principle of our plan of action, end the life of no organisa tion was ever more Justified by events than ours has been. Its record speaks for Itself, Just as does that of the of fleers of ths Southern Cotton Associa tion speak for tt. "C. S. BARRETT. ‘Atwater, Oa., May 6, 1907."

GREAT WHITE PLAGUEi CONTAGIOUS SCOURGE Washington. May 7.—The National Association for the Study and Pre ventlon of Tuberculosis, In third annual session hero, discussed the theories of tubercular Infection. Dr. Charles Hunter Dunn, of Bos ton, said In early life tuberculosis did not affect the lungs as It did In the esse of adults, but frequently remained hid den In the Internal glands In children until an acute form of tuberculosis, meningitis, or pneumonia caused death. He declared that children have no pow. er of resistance against these acute outbreaks, and that small babies show ed no tendency toward the heajing of the lesions. He mentioned the various theories that It was congenital, due to dust, or moist systems, and said that while there was truth In all of them, the commonest source was house conta gion from tubercular surroundings. In the order of frequency, he said, tuber culosis entered the body through the lungs, through tbe Intestines, or through the tonsils and the pharynx, and then located Itself In the nearest glands. Finally he spoke upon the subject of Immunizing a person against tubercu losis by means of vaccination. Dr. Henry L. K. Shaw, of Albany. N. Y., argued that the usual method of acquiring the disease waa through the contagion of man to man. and not threti-h milk and other foods.
