Here is where 1 one of the objects of the union comes t] in; to brin the grower and spinner IS closer together and eliminate the mid- d dle man, to sell their cotton direct to ei the mill and eliminate speculation. h The uilion has not gone nor is it V -ely to go into the newspaper busi- el ness like the Alliance of old. There V are 'a number of papers printed as Union papers, but these are private R enterprises and have no financial backing' of the Union. The South ~ Carolina Union has employed Col. J. C.

Good"vin called the meeting to or de: and introduced Hon. G. M. Davis ii of Atlanta. Ga., state organizer of the c< Georgia division. Mr. Davis was the I sole speaker of the evening and spoke h. for about two hours. He made a w good, soud. practical talk, and one that the delegates have talked about more than that of any other. He spoke of the harmonious working of the Georgia union and told of the magnificent appropriation by the State of Georgia for agri.ultural dis trict schools and urged that- South Carolina take steps along this same line. He said: "You know every- J1 body says the farmer who won't stick to the union gets stuck." In regard to the high price of cotton, he said that F 25-cent cotton would ruin the farm ing interests of the south. It would cause the mill people to quit spinning and all go to producing cotton. Speaking of politics and the much mooted question of politics raining the organization or any organizatip9n 11: that allows politics, Mr. Davis said: "'That as the national government has instituted ticks, so that Farmers' un-L ion had instituted a strict quaran-, - tine against politics.'' At the close of his speech the evening meeting clos ed.4 The ferst meeting today was called 4 to order at 9 o'clock. The court house4 was well filled. Hon. T. T. Wakefild, of Anderson, president of the Anderson county un- 4 K ion and vice president of the state division, introduced the following4 resolution as the work oif the commit tee on the operation in cotton baling, I handling and marketing. The resolu- 4 tion is as follows: "We favor a system of uniform baling of cotton into packages of 244 inches wide by 36 inches long; that I the cotton be covereed neatly and se eurely with any servieeable wrap- 4 ping, oar preference being given to cotton wrapper; that we approve the I cottou union system of marketing 4 cotton." At 11 a. in., National President C. S. Barrett made an address to the4 geneial public in the court house. He I stated -among other thi:rgs that he 4 "W talked Farmers' unior so much .he had about forgotten every thing else he ever knew. He said the4 Farmers' unions of the south now I own and operate 1,000 warehouses of 4 their own. "We do not own or ope rate any stores,'' he said. The man w"ho don't stick himself is the one " who is alwaye saying the other fellow won 't stick. The old farmer has got enough of partizan politics.
