paid his respects to Attorney Cicn;

shocked and stunned when the! t
i wires flashed the horrible news : c
| that the great cotton 'bears' of j
this country had enlisted the powlerful
influence of the legal depart;
tnent of the goverment in their 1
! behalf in their efforts to depress a
the price ot the greatest product
of the Southland.
"For years past these gamblers
in cotton, many of them never
having seen a stalk of cotton grown
were able to get together and dc
press the price of the staple dur- 1
1 ing the fall months when, because
I of the poverty and ignorance of '
. j th - southern planter, he was forced
; to sell approximately 75 oer cent, i
' i of his crop. Has an Attorney
" General of the United States ever
had them arraigned for conspiracy?
You know thev have not. t
The Almighty Responsible. ;
"But now when these great big 1
baby bears have been caught sel- (
ling that which they did not have,
yea, when they have been caught
1 selling that which they could not
r get, they come with tears in their
t I eves, ir a distardlv and contempti- ?
/ ble way, to a weak Attorney Gcn1
eral for God's sake to protect them .
, j In years past they have robbed )
! the South of many billions of dol- ,
, lars, and now thev are begging .
j the help of this great department [
| of the govermcnt to save them 1 ]

_iton. The Almighty, when lie |
K i witheld for months the rain from
. i large sections of our country and ,
^ then sent the storms and the Hoods '
. | to wash away and destroy the crop
r; in other sections and above that ,
. j allowed the boll weevil and other j
. i pests to get in their most effective |
e I work, reduced the cotton crop of 11
l'.?09 to that point, where the spin*
. ners of the world were forced to
pay a fair price for this cotton.

j "If these speculators have been '
_ caught wrong they should take
^ their medicine like men; the price '
t: of cotton is not too high when
compared with other things in this ,
^ country. Think of the prices of '
. wheat, meats, mules, fertilizers,
f labor and many other things and \
L, you will see how much more it '
r costs the planter to grow cotton '
now than it formerly did.
"In the opinion of many of us,
there is something more behind
this than appears on the surface.
>f j Can it be possible that this adminJ
; istration intends to take up the i
r j cudgels for the great American i
n I Tobacco Company and stop all i
efforts of the tobacco growers to !
r secure fair prices for their tobac- <
co. Can it be possible that this ?
I administration means to start first (
in New York and finally lend its | -|
I powerful influence to the enemies i
of the cotton grower in thwartimrl 1
I his feeble efforts to secure fair I
rices for his c it ton. If that be }
j their purpose, I warn you now I
i the millions of American farmers 1
t will, in their just wrath and indi^-t
| j nation at this most unjust and':
i damnable treatment, sweep from
place and power anv party responsible
for this action."
