Soars the
Signature of
Governor Hoke Smith’s address In
welcoming the cotton spinner, to Geor
gia ™ a, follows:
"Mr. President and Gentlemen of the
International Cotton Spinners’ Asso
ciation—We welcome you to the center
of the cotton growing belt of the
United States. We are sure that noth
ing but good can come from closer
relations between Chiton spinners and
cotton growers. This section. raises
70 per cent of the lint cotton that goes
to your mills. You could not have pros
pered-without our cotton. Our cotton
growers would have had no market had
not your mill, prepared the lint cotton
for practical use.
"We desire you to know our cotton
8ect|on. In no way can you understand
It ,o . fully ns by traveling through It,
Investigating os you go.,
"The state, properly classed as cotton
growing states cover over seven hun
dred nnd fifty thousand square miles,
with a soil capable of producing every
variety of foodstuff. While Inhabited
by only twenty millions of people, they
could support a population ns dense as
that of Holland. If settled as thickly
I the United Kingdom, the population
of the cotton states would be over three
hundred millions.
"Less than one-fifth of the land Is In
cultivation, and not more than one
half of that.In cultivation Is’In cot
ton. More than half of the land of this
cotton section I, adapted to the culture
of cotton. . v
"We ask your attention to our claim
that while cotton may be grown with
pnrtlal success In many countries of
the world, yjt nature has Intended this
to be the favored section for the growth
of cotton In Its perfection. This Is not
due to a better knowledge with refer
ence to the culture possessed hero, but
td a combination of soil and climatic
conditions that exist nowhere else.
"With us only second In Importance
to temperature Is the distribution of
rainfall among the seasons suited pe
culiarly to cotton culture.. We have
two dry and two wet season, each year,
and then a. frost thst 'kills down the
plant and Insures a silky, fine staple.
"The Increased production and. use of
lint cotton In this section has no paral
lel. A century ago we exported thirty-
six thousand bales. Thirty-five years
ago 4,474,000 met the demands of the
market. I.ast year 13.SOO.OOO wan none
too much for the mills of the world.
“Last year European mills alone look
over 7,500,000 bale, of Southern cot
ton.
This section has produced the lint
cotton and your machinery has made
the finished product leave far behind
all fabrics made from cotton’s three
rivals—wool, flax and ,11k.
“While the use of cotton ha, been
Increasing so rapidly throughout the
world. In spite of the Increasing price,
the world's wool production decreased
from 1895 to 1905 40 per cent. Dur
ing the same period the world's con
sumption of lint cotton Increased 70
per cent. *.
"The future demand for cotton man
ufactured goods should Increase even
more rapidly. Modem civilisation Is
advancing through the open gates of
Asia, Africa and the Isle, of the sea.
Cotton grower, and cotton spinner,
may Join hand, to clothe the world.
You have a common destiny.
"You can rely with confidence upon
our cotton belt to furnish a supply as a
permanent proposition to meet your
ever-increasing demand. We Invite you
to Investigate the capacity of title sec
tion to furnish cotton and to cease
troubling yourselves about cotton fields
In other countries yet to be found. The
cotton states are here opening their
gates for your. Inspection. While the
crop this year le conceded to be lee*
than the crop last year, the only ques
tion about the quantly offered you
during a period of years will be the
price you are ready to pay for It.
Careful study through scientific schools
I from cotton goods.
“The cotton planters of this section
for a number of years sold their cot
ton at starvation prices. They are
gratified to know that a tendency to-
mule 1 eimona hie price* ha* nor
lessened the extension of the sale of
cultun fabric.-. The talue of exports of
cotton piece goods from Great Britain
In 1906 was 33(6.908.200, an Increase
over IS,If, of i;:.2T7.30O.
"Cotton was relatively higher last
year, as compared to formers years, yet
Inst year was probably the moat lu
crative yenr the spinners ever had. The
cotton planters must know Just what
cotton you need. They can grow It for
you but they can not be expected to
grow an excessive crop and hnve their
Increased labor rewarded by less pay]
for a large crop than a small crop
would have brought.
"Your visit brings the cotton field
and the cotton mill close together. It
means closer relations and In time di
rect trade from the railroad station In
the cotton field to the cotton mill.
’•The lottnn growers have learned
that they can not expect to unload their
crop upon you as noon as It I, gath
ered. They are rapidly becoming able
to sell their cotton through the year.
They desire an equal voice with the
buyer In fixing tho price.
"Your visit will give the cotton grow
er a better conception of how he must
prepare hla cotton to save waste and
meet your needs. This will produce an
economic result beneficial both to the
grower and the spinner. We Invite you
to-study our section and to give your
freest opinions about what you find and
what you want. You will be met with
the same candid spirit. We wish cor
dial relations and a thorough ac
quaintance between the men who grow
and the men who manufacture the
world’s greatest staple. And when your
time Is not occupied with' the etudy of
business questions we welcome you
most heartily to pur homea and to our
social customs. We thank you for
coming. We greet you most cordlelly.
The longer you may stay, the more
pleasure you will give.”

WOULD EXCLUDE BIBLE
FROM PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Special to The Georgian.
Montgomery, Ala.. Oct. 7.—There has
been made a complaint to the state eu.
perlntendent of education In reference
to opening the public schools with the
reading of the Bible. Father Patrick
T. Costello, of Montgomery, went, to
know If the Bible must be read In the
public schools. Father Costello says
that It Is Illegal to have this done. He
thinks the Sunday school Is the plsce
where title should be done and In de
nominational schools. H. C. Gunnels,
state superintendent of education, says
the custom of reading the Bible In the
public schools of Alabama Is as old as
the public school system. The prac
tice Is not the result of any order pro
mulgated by the state educational de
partment. It Is a local question and Is
undsr the direct Jurisdiction of the lo
cal school authorities.
this section. The lands already In cot
ton can be made to double their yield,
and only a limited portion of those ca
pable of cotton production have been
yet broken by the plow. But the (den

taught that Our soil and climate can
produce many other orops remunera

cotton culture it nqt the necessity that
It was years gone by. The tendency la
toward diversifying crops, lessening the
dependence upon cotton culture.
"It costa more to raise cotton than It
did a few yeare ago. Lands have In

and supplies of all kinds used by ths
fanners have Increased In costv A low
