"Remember your sisters and their tIe Children are laboring In the fi.,ls. the women destitute of comfort, ve:'reation and social life, the children with no chance of an education be cause of the fact that the product of the farm has been selling so cheaply when coipar'e(d with the price of ev rythiilig else.

"When we succeed in compelling a rotit able price for cotton and otherl faril ptroducts. thel and not tillii then, will weI be a)IC to correct these conditions.

The Ashteville mtotoriste were en.. route to Greenville and Ihe Greenville youth ,was outward bound on the highway. Testimony at the coroner's in1(tlest conflicted as to the speed of the Asheville car. Damage to the au tomobile and the motorcycle, how ever, Indicated that both machines were running at high speed. The au tomobile was put out of commission and the motorcycle was literally torn to pieces. Young Seawrighlt was a son of Mr. and .Mrs. Samuel W. Seaivright, 201 Markley street. The father Is associat ed with the Laawton Lumber Company and the victim of the accident was em ployed by the Oregon Lumber com pany.
