probably not be chosen until the di

they could name the place at any other
meeting.
Want Good Immigrants.
A resolution on Immigration, intro
duced by R. F. Duckworth, state pres
ident of Georgia, places the Union on
record as being opposed to any and all
Immigration that will bring an unde
sirable class of citizens to the United
States. The farmers claim they are
not opposed to any man who will come
to this country with a view to making
himself a home and bettering his con
dition. They are opposed to the bring
ing of laborers to this country who will
work for small wages and possibly cre
ate discontent.
Tho resolution was adopted after
much discussion. Some. It Is said,
wanted to place restrictions around Im
migration by naming exactly the kind
of people that woutd be desirable. All
were In favor of adopting a resolution
showing the farmers as a union to be
opposed to the Influx of cheap laborers.
State Business Agent,.
The gathering of the state business
agents at this convention was one of
the most Important matters relative to
the Farmers’ Union. They have been
In session almcst continuously and
much of the work of the convention
was mapped out by the business agents.
Owing to the Illness of P. F. Parker, of
Alabama, chairman of the business
ogents, he could not attfl-.d. J. G. Eu
banks, state business agent of Geor
gia, was elected chairman for the en
suing year. In speaking to The Geor
gian representative of the work of the
business agents' meetings, Mr. Eu
banks said:
Uniform Bal*.
"We have several Important matters
under consideration, but one of th<(
most essential ts arriving at a uniform
bale of cotton In slse and weight. We
have adopted a plan to compress our
cotton- at our warehouses, of which we
have over 2,000 In the South. To Install
ci repressing machinery at every one of
the 28,000 ginneries In the South would
be too large a task for our body and
we will locate our compresses at cen
tral points where our warehouses, -are
located.
"We are considering whether It will
be a round or square bale. We want
cotton produced by union farmers to
reach the spinners In the best possible
shape and we believe If we properly
bale and compress It we can get a pre
mium over other staples."
Mr. Eubanks speaks very encourag
ingly of the outlook of the national bu.
reau of Information which will be op
erated under his supervision.
1 Legislative Committee.
The most Important work of the last
day's session of the National Farmers'
Union was the adoption of the report of
the committee on legislation. The re
port provides for a committee of three
to go to Washington during session* of
congress and there present to national
legislators the demands of the union, as
has been the plan In the various states.
The strongest men In the organisation
will be dppolnted by the president and
executive committee. R. F. Duck
worth, of Georgia, and Ben L. Griffin, of
Arkansas, are spoken of as probabls
members of the committee.
Official Button.
Reports for other committees of lesa
Importance took up most of the day’s
time of the convention. The place of
tho next national convention will be
fixed by the executive committee. The
button with Newt Gresham's picture on
It wns adopted as the official button of
the orders. This button had been pre
viously adopted by the Georgia divi
sion. Resolutions were passed looking
to the copyrighting of a union label by
the convention.
Davis is Honored.
G. M. Davis, state organiser of Geor
gia, was selected by the natlonnl union
to make a trip through the Northwest
ern states In behalf of the order.
J. M. Lee, state lecturer of Georgia,
delivered an address before a large
body of Junior Order of American Me
chanics, which Is In session at this

Atlanta Man Finds Pocket
Which Promises Him
Fortune.
A bushel of Georgia dirt, worth
fortune, is what Dr. W. W. McAfee, of
130 Decatur street, has as a reward for
about three months' work In the nioun.
tains near Dahlonega.
He and his brother, Charles F. Mc
Afee, have opened a pocket of gold in
a vein they have been following. Dr.
McAfee returned 'from his mine Wed
nesday night and he believes he has
made the richest gold find ever made
In the mountains of Georgld. '
The country In that section Is famous
for its gold producing qualities and
several pockets have been found which
have netted their finders small for
tunes. but both Dr. McAfee and his
brother think this find Is the most val
uable one In the history of Georgia gold
mining.
The mine which Dr. McAfee owns Is
about two and one-half miles from
Dahlonega, on the Chestatee river, and
Is on a plot of 260 acres he purchased
some time ago. When he bought It
there was a hole twenty feet deep and
In the few months he and his brother
have been working they have gone
about eight feet more, following a vein
which was visible. They hoped to find
a pocket, and they have Just been re
warded.
Dr. McAfee says there are between
8.000 and 10,000 pennyweights of gold
In sight and he says there Is every in
dication that the pocket extends farther
In the vein. Gold is worth about 95
cents a pennyweight now.
When the news of the rich strike
leaked out, people from miles around
flocked to the camp by the hundreds.
The place la called Dry Hollow and Is
close to the scenes of several other rich
pockets which have been found in the
past few years. The richest of these
was the Bolafleld find, which netted
101.000 pennyweights of pjire gold.
Several valuable samples were
brought back by Dr. McAfee and on
these the gold sticks out In large nug
gets. He will return In a few days and
take out the balance of the gold. Dr.
McAfee has bsen Interested In Georgia
gold mining for several years and his
father. W. H. McAfee, of Atlanta, and
his grandfather were both miners In
the mountains of Georgia. Dr. Mc
Afee's father Is now at the mine and IS
enthusiastic over thp prospects.
