C., held meeting the other night and resolved to do their own work, because of the high wages being demanded by servants. The Asheville -Citizen tells the story as follows: "A decision t>y the women of Asheville to dc their own housework until the negro servants of the city lowered their wage requirements was adopted j at the mass meeting of the householders of the city, held a Yew days ago at the Asheville high scho.ol. "The meeting, called by the Asheville Women's Club, was for the purpose of discussing the servant problem, which has lately become acute in the city, because of the high wages demanded by the negro servants and of their refusal to abide by certain working hours. "The meeting was presided over by Mrs. Charles If. Piatt, president of the Women's Club, while a brief ad, dress was riiada by Mayor Roberts touching upon the situation in general. The meeting and its character had aroused considerable interest among the women folk of the city, and a good sized crowd was present in the auditorium of the high school. " While this meeting has been characterized as havine various our poses,* said Mrs. Plntt in calling the meetirig to order, "we will pust call it a get-together meeting for the purpose of making the mosf of the diminishing dollar.' ''Charlotte H. Brown, of the negro colftge near Greensboro, accompanied by Dr. J. H. "Walker and Rev. Nelson were, present as, representatives of the negro servants' side^ of th question. "I am here, "hot *9 a representa-r tive of the street loiferers whom the police have so much trouble with." said Charlotte H. Brown, 'but as a representative of the beter class of negroes, to whogl the idea of social | equality with ou? white sisters is absurd. What the better class of negro women want is not social equality , with the white people, but only a chance to educate their children so that they may serve the white people in a consistent and faithful manner,*, | .'t,.- Dr. J. W. Walker, tjggrivin appeal' ing for a cloier ^Cfrftstian relation between the white and black races said: 4If we should all go to heaven as strangers it would taken Gariel and St. Peter a thousand years to intro^ Auce us. During the war between the litotes the relation between the negro jpad wkito- man .was as master..and fee. Why not let that relation to-1 day be as Christian and Christian.** "When the negro speaker fcsd finished their appeals, Mrs. Charles M. Piatt told them in behalf of the housewives of Asheville that 'these are more different varieties of negro co'lks in Asheville than there are a well-known brand of pickles. Tell your people that the women of this city have resolved to do their own housework and cooking until the negro servants will lower their outrageous wage demands. We wish to have a sympathetic understanding with them, but unless this can be done, we shall do without their services.' , i SECOND ?ICE PRESIDENT I AN1) GENERAL MANAGER Colombia, May 21.?The eXcCuiivC I conpnittee of the American Cotton Association will meet in Atlanta the #rst part of June for the purpose of handling the tremendous volume of duties mapped out by the Montgomery convention, "said J. Skottowe WuinamakerJ president of the association, today. wf'One of the most important mat ters to be handled by the Executive Committee will be election of a second-vice-president and General manager. It is the concensus of opinion of the members of the Association , 'that this position should be filled by one of the biggest men in the country, a man thoroughly interested in econo; mic reforms for which' the Association is working, one not only naturally talented and fully familiar with the cotton industry but a man of com, manding influence, recognized as a leader in tHe commercial life of our nation. "The duties of this official^ will be of vital inpdrtance he will have entiro charge of the business side of the cotton prodiicting industry. "There is no Question but that as a result of the, sub-division of the work of the Ame^ifan Cotton Association that the cotton industry of the South wil be put upon a strictly business basis, so that the economic reforms wil be put into effect and the marketing end of the industry solved. "The matter of the proper financing of the Association so as to assure it the financial means for the installation of the various departments, and alos to assure its permanency, is receiving the most careful attention of ! the finance committee and will re- 1 ceive first consideration by the Executixe Committee at their meeting in . Atlanta. The success already achieved by the finance committee assures i not only t^ our cotton industry, but < 0 9 ' 'fl / a ?. .
