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.

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. DISHES PREPARED BY A FRENCH CHEF, OR DISHES PREPARED BY A SOUTHERN COOK “AS MOTHER USED TO FIX THEM."
