COXaUKrTtON UXI’KKCKOKNTKO. The enormoita crop of Amo r lcan cot- fhn reaching the unprecedented llg tires of nearly IljJOO.OCK) bates has been easily absorbed by. tho spinners at an Hveragc price of nine cents per pftiiud. TiTgti-rone Of this crop there was only a small re- serve stock of little more than a mil lion hales to be carried into the season of 1*905 0 on the first day of .September If no more than ten million balca of gottomarc harvested thl* s( a«on to be Added to the small reserve stoi-k carried j oyer from the crop of 1904, the mills of the world, at the present rate of con sumption. Will face >n famine in raw siotuu. before anolhiy; crop can by planted, cultivated ana placed on the market. The mill* have contracted for many months ahead Tor the delivery of goods to be manufactured out of. cot ton yet to be bought from the pro ducers. The Exporters have sold to the spinner* cotton to be delivered* in the future months which l* yet to be bought from the producers. The •pinner* and the Exporter* are heavily abort, with nothing but paper con tracts In their possession, while the fiumsrs of the {Jputli hold the spot cot ton in their hand* and oontrol abso lutely the key to the situation. Will the farmers take advantage of the •ulendid position they occupy, and like men, assert their rights to demand a fair price for this crop at the hands of the buyers? Will not the merchants aud local bankers throughout the ttouth line up »oHdly in unbroken ranks with the farmers against the sunn91 nations that are so actively at work to depress price* and detjat the will of tho people? Mu«T DO OUR DCTVr— In defeat the enemy will be nwrclle** and It will take twenty yoare for the aonlltifl-recoyer again Bund br the Association and thereby bfbteCt your individual Interests. The booth is both mentally and tlnanclally able to inanag* and protect her Intereptefrom the dominating and devaaMtlng hand* other enemies. Last January the price of cotton wa* depressed to six' cents per pound and the Southern Cotton Association was organised at tlt« New Orleans Conven tion January 2(1. 1904. to bring about harmony among the producers, mer chants and banker* so a* to advance the price to ten cents par; pound Th« world know* that through this power ful organization the prlee of spot cot ton was advaneefl to ten cents in the fiouth on July 3d, Just Hye month* la ter. Not ouly (id* hut the assistance given the ‘•Bear’' operator* by certain ofDHals In the United rttate* Depart ment ol Agriculture was exposed through the effort* of the Association ami the rascal* were promptly turned out. This work has already saved mil lion* of dollars to the Month and will continue to do so if fostered and main tained by the people. If the South could advance the price of a 14,000 WWt bale crop from 6 cent* to 10 cent*, clearly it would require but little co operative effort to secure not less than eleven cents for a 10,000 000 bale crop. Let the people know .lie truth, know the power of their strength and the i let them act promptly and the victory for higher prices will soon be won, tlien their gr-at staple will be selling at Its real value to the World. The new treaty between Great Brit ain and Japan hind* bpth natmii* to take part in any war made against either In Eastern Asia or India. This goes further than tjbelr old alliance w hich required in case of the two pow er* making war on etcher party to the treaty the oilier should go to its help. The rest of the world is not pleased with tills new arrangement, which looks like (jh B. & J. intend to take In tho lion’s share of the profitable trade of the East. 1 TflE-Bm.-BOyiliUJORL 720 Customers served there Saturday, September 30, ’05. !
