Effort May be Mado to Vote the

Walterboro, Juno 7. ? There is
a movement on foot, started by
Capt H. D. Padgcli, clerk of

an election to see if the dispensary
cannot be voted out in
the county. It is meeting with
considerable favor. More will

Your correspondent bas it upon

ordered are being framed now and
will be in circulation at an early j
day. What the result of the clec- j;
tion will be is, of course, a prob- v

is a strong sentiment throughout [
the count.C against whiskey selling.
Especially is this case outside
of those towns in which dispensaries

Speech of Hon. llarvic Jordan at
Greenville, Monday.
(Greenville News.
Applause and cheering greeted
the appearance of President Jordan,
whom Mr. Tindal declared
had saved the farmers from 5
cent cotton.
Mr. Jordan disclaimed all credit
personally for having accomplished
anything through the cotton
movement. What had been done,
he said, was all due to those farmers
who, with brave, stout
hearts had stood by the principles
of the association promulgutcd at
the New Orleans convention in
January.
The speaker plunged immediately
into his address. He dcclard
that the problem had nothing
whatever to do with the cultivation
of cotton, but it was the
marketing of the staple that concerned
the South. That was the
great problem, and as yet it had
not approached solution. The
farmer and the Southern business
man, for that matter, knew practically
nothing of the consumption
of his raw material. lie was
irrnnrnnt of the cost of mnnnfar
turing it into domestics and before
he had been well informed as to
all these things he would be robbed
by the financial interests of
the world. "You must know
where your cotton goes," said Mr.
Jordan, "and til it is one thing
the association proposes to do. I
will defay any mun to sayjthat cotton
is not today worth intrinsically
lo cents a pound."
Continuing the Speaker referred
to the absolute monopoly the
South exercises by nature in the
cotton world. Then the difference
between the price paid for
raw material and that demanded
for the manufactured article was
criticised by Mr Jordan.
"There is something radically
wrong when cotton for which the
farmer receives ten cents can be
manufactured and sold back t >
him in the shape of handkerchiefs
at ten cents each Think of it?
Twenty-five handkerchiefs can be
made from that pound of cotton
and they are worth ?2.50. What
we want to find out is, who gets
that $2.50 and why. A bale of
cotton you are selling today for
about $45. when turned into
handkershiefs, is worth about ?2,.
50O. Who gets the rest of it?
Can it be possible that the l .bor
af the mill operative and the mill
president and the expense of maintaining
the machinery, all together
is worth so many times more
than the labor and intelligence of
the man who makes the article out
af the ground.
''The trouble is in our sy.-tem
if marketing. The farmer has
ibsolutcly no voice in fixing the
:>rice. He sells it and the other
"ellow grades the staple and fixes
he price, and when the times
:omes for the farmer to purchase
lis clothing the other fellow docs
he measuring and again fixes
lie price. Where does the farner
come in, anyway?"
"Nowhere," a voice shouted in
:he audience.
' 'That is just it, my friend,'
.aid President Jordan. "The farner
is nowhere, but with the help
if some of these 16,000,000 coton
planters we hope to make a
>lace for the man that cultivates
he most valuable agricultural
>roduct in the world. A product,
oo, for which the demand is
tcadily increasing. When you
hink that the short crop of 1903
vas sold for $600,000,000 and
hat when manufactured it brought
norc than two billions of dollars,
'ou can form some idea of what
otton means to the South and t<>
he world."
As a means of checking the ra\agefTof
speculation, which not
>nly injured the cotton planters,
?ut played havoc with the mills.
President Jordau declared himself
in favor of the warehouse system.* i
Then, he s lid, the farim i*m would s
wait foi u 11 icuts or higher piicc t!
t here should be such a budding g
in every county, an' 't must be i
owned i d c?:ttml;cd by tin.- far u
niei
' The !< ink and financial t. sti- *
stutions have stoo l !>\* lb i no
iliers,'' said preidw." i > d a, o
snd many of the n have inconveu- P
ienccd their stockholders to h lp
in, and we appreciate it, bat t e
best financial friend ail e farmt r
can have is a will filled c >rn n ib
and a sninkolious i well slocked,
n 1.1 so two tilings will do more
to tide yon over l crisis t i l l a ic
other."
Continuing, Mr. Jordan advised
a distribution of thejborrowing .,
system so that all debto would
not fall due in October Ins' when
cotton had t > he sold if they w re &:
to i'c paid. Pai ments may b '
made to extend over the gieater
part oflthe fall and winter and
then the poor w uld be abl-i to
hold his cotto i 1 uiger. When i'
came to organization, the farm.irs
must s'art at home, Mr. Jordan
scid. if he expected to sueoced.
Mr. Jordan referred to the cotton jy
holding c nnp.uiy recently org in- i
ized in New Orleans with a cap-J
ital of $lo,o 'O. O a id ( ii i ilia ()|
the slock h id beeii place I at ?1 s
a share and hoped every far- ai
mcr in the county would take an ll
interest in it, for the company
would be one af the greatest instruments
for raisinr* the value of is
cotton and should not be a bad c
investment, either. I
Referring to the association on
the reduction of acreage and this c<
issued by tin* government, Mr. n\
Jordan said lie had a ked Stat is- d<
tician 11 \ d. for a fuM report, so
that the difference could be tr eked
out. It is now up to the government
to prove that the associ ition
is in error Or that its representatives
have made a mistake.
"You must not let politics creep L
into your association," said .Mr. IV
Jordan. Rusiue^s men will ?
have nothing to do wi'h such a
soci<ty, and besides i1 :s forbid
den by the c> stitution On;-y
sterdav 1 diseovcred that a
high officer in a Sla'e association
held a pubiic office, and ! immediately
requested his resignation. ,<
Declaring that he knew the far- ai
mers of South Carolina could he w
depended upon to do their share. ^
President Jordan, after saying a
good word 'or the Piedmont Pair
Association, thanked the audience
t
for th" attention h- had received
and eioscd his address amaid
much applause.
