PRESIDENT SMITHS ADVICE
THE FARMERS.
President Smith, ot the St
Cotton Growers' Association,
published in Wednesday's is
of The News, save out a stj
ment this week in which he
peals to tlie tarmers not to e
ntice their cotton by selling
present prices, lie construes
Jast ginuers' report as a bull
oue. lie says it shows that
crop is undoubtedly short, t
in his opinion it the farmers \
hut hold their cotton they \
certainly realize 12^ cents ;
pound for it. Upon Uie=e poi
Mr. Smith says:
"The next giuners' report
a'ii confident, will show that i
Contention tli t the crop is sin
is true. Last week and the w<
before the mills and the cot I
buyers gave 11 cents readily
cotton. If they could afford
buy it then at that figure, it
worth that much now, for t
reason that they had plu<
their contracts months ahe
and could afford to give 11 ce
and show a handsome profit.
"There is no reason why y<
the farmers of the South, shot
sacrifice what cot<on you do a
them, because somebody prcdi
e?i mere ? a? a much larger er<
In mand from them that th
shall g:ve for what you do s
hem from now on, what tl
have been paving lor it for t
last two or three weeks at lea
Cotton is worth today on t
markets, in view of the pr
and the scarcity of goods, 12 1
cenls a pound If the farm
will just absolutely refuse to s
it for less, this price ran be i
tained tor the balance of t
crop.
tk()f course everything depej
upon the unanimity with wh
they hold cotton.
As Mr. Smith says, all depei
e~on the farmers themselves.
HEARST HIT ON ALL SIDES, H
MAV U/IN
Hearst, in his candidacy
Governor of New York, is c
tainly receiving no encoura
ment or moral support at I
hands of the democratic lead
of the South. On ?he contrai
they denounce him and 1
methods at every opportunity.
In a speech at Brownwood, T<
as, one day this week, Sena
Bailey fired the following broi
_ side at New York's democratic
ys.
standard bearer :
"They say I ought nol to talk
about hun because be is the Democratic
nominee. If he had live!

like the Democratic nominees ?
He is a political Ishmaelite, with

man and every man's hand
raised against him. H?

1 New York, Nov. 1 ? With the
election day le*s than a week
I away, the two candidates tor
. governor rf New York are niak'
ing their last appeals to the up'
state voters and tomorrow will
see both Char os E. HtigheH and
W. . R. Ilealst utaded toward
I Greati-r New Yori%, where their
> final arguments will be made.
Their last swing around the cir
cle, was under adverse weather
conditions and both are voiceworn
from their frequent speak,
ings.
. In this city the feature of the
day was the action of Mr. Hearst
I in appealing direct to .fudge
r Rosalski, of tha court of general
sessions to !ake vigorous meas,
ures against the b; a d of elections
for adeued criminal negli
( geme in f.unug to prevtnt the
I loss or destruction of the Independence
League nominating
petitions. Mr. Hearst offered fifty
thousand dollars reward for the
arrest and conviction of persons
guilty of election frauds.
The publication this alteruoon
of a cablegram from Richard
Croker to Senator McCarron
j. reading, "Congratulations to
you on manly stand taken whether
you win or lose,'1 has caused
excitement in democratic headquarters
in Brooklyn. McCarron
has opposed Hearst riuce the
Buffalo convention.
