Dahns to Attend ( ailed Convention at Juekson, Headquar? ter* for Organisation, Next Friday and Learn More of Its Operation?; S< me of Those Present Do not Seem to Ho Favorably Impressed. At an open meeting <>t the County Farmers' Union, held In the grand |ury room of the court house Friday morning, Mr. L. E, Davis, of Natchez, ?poke to about twenty farmers of the county on the iubj >tc of systematic marketing for the farmers and how tile warehouse system which had been organized in Mississippi was work? ing. Mr. Davis was introduced by Presi? dent E, W. I?al?l>s of the State Far? mers' Union who stated In a few In? troductory remarks that a method of systematic purchasing and marketing among the farmers was something that those of this State had been working for for a long time, and they had gathered today to hear Mr. D? Vla who would tell how the ware? house lystem which had been organiz? ed In Mississippi was working. He stated that the plan had been first dis? cussed in Charleston, by Mr, High tower, the president ol the organiza? tion, And plans had been formed to let the people know about the matter with the idea of forming an organ? isation In this State with .<ioo,ono capital as a part of the Mississippi organisation. The organisation must cover the entlrp cotton bell to be ef? fective and he. as state president, had first taken up the matter in Sumter County as it was In this county that the first Steps to get better prices for cotton had been commenced. Mr. Davis told how the Mississippi farmers had organized their ware? house system three years ago and how it had been operating satisfac? torily since that time. being the means of immense saving and profit to the farmers. Stock amounting to $50,000 had been sold at $10 a share, when the price was raised to $12.50 a share because of the fact that no dividends were declared and because warehouses all through the State were used in the operation of the plan. The organization established of? fices at various places where farm product! were handled at a benefit to the farmers. There were now 53 warehouses in the (bain and offices in this country and in the cotton mill section of England where the cotton was s..ld direct to the mills by the farmers through the agents of the company, generally at a good profit. The aim of the movement was to net rid of the middle man and to let the farmer get that profit Which now went to this middle man. It was absolutely necessary to get moie capital to run tin- business suc? cessfully, Up to this time the or? ganization had been fearfully cramped In Its operations because of lack of funds. The plan now was to organise the other states in the company and to In this way get funds to extend Its operations, He stated that the officers of the company had decided that $100,000 worth of the stock should have to i?e sold in this State, about $12,000 worth of which had already been placed In Charleston, which had last yecr thought to join In the or? ganisation, but dropped out later when the storm came along and the cotton crop was reported to be so short. This money collected for stock In this State would be used in estab? lishing office! bete and In Europe among the mills, Ihe whole amount being used for the benefit of the farmers of this section, In aiding their facilities for selling. Tin- Farmers' Warehouse Compnny in Mississippi '.sides being engaged In the sale of cotton also acted as a purchasing- agent for cotton seed mills and as g siding agent for fer? tilizer mills, the company fixing the price in both Instances so as to make one dollar a ton on the traffic, ami not being liable in the fertilizer traffic, 11 also bandh d other articles, always at a profit, and was HOW making good money,, besides l ?ndtng money on cotton. Mr. DnVlS Was unable to ex? actly i.ii what were the assets of the company t" the satisfaction of his hearers, who tsked many Questions of how Ihe ?tockholders were remuner? ated for their Investment In stock, h seemed however, from \\\~ expla? nations that th< pro ft I lay in the se? curing of fertiliser cheaper and the sale of , otton a id cotton seed at bel? li r prli es, \i r, Hayn worth suggested that n subsidiary company In thl* State working in .peratlon w it n the Mississippi company would fie better to I hi Htockholdcrs than joining the Mississippi organ last ion. Mr. Dahbs also expressed himself In favor of this, if. after he attended the Jackson con? vention nexl wc.k, he did not think ti.peratlon of the Mississippi plan in this State satisfactory, Mr. Manning and Mr, Rowland <ii?1 not seem satisfied at the prospect of there being no tangible assets To be held as evidences of the money in? vested hy the stockholders, Mr, Man? tling suggesting that the plan was en? tirely too comprehensive and there* fore too risky, He thought that ther< was too much chance to lose money and not sufficient to make money in operating the system. I Dr. Baker thought that $100,000] for South Carolina was entirely too much, if a mere brokerage business 1 was to be c irrled on, and entirely too little if the company contemplated establish!] g a chain of warehouses and lending money on cotton. The geiier;;i consensus <;f opinion was to w i;t until Mr. Dabbl attended the meeting in Jackson and made his report. when judgment would be passed <<n the plan. Mr. Dabbs in closing the meeting asked that any one who had any questions to ask let him have them so that he could have them explained to him fully at the Jackson meeting, and be able to ex? plain them when be returned to Sum? ter.

Do not merely observe the Golden Hule toward your enemies, but love them, and "do good to them that hate you." The Master's expression, "TJato him that smitcth thee on the one c.'ieek of fer also the other," is to be taken as signifying simply. Do not render evil for evil, even though be smite thee on the other cheek also. Our Lord Himself when smitten, according to the report did not invite the smiting of the other cheek, but defended Himself to the ex tent of criticising the evil deed. Rut if He had been smitten on the other cheek also, let us not for a moment think that He would have resisted, in the sense of rendering blow for blow. The next statement is more compre hensively given by St. Matthew "It any man sue thee at the law and take away thy coat, withhold not thy cloak also." The follower of Jesus may flee from an adversary, or he may resist him to the extent of proper expostula? tion, but he is to be thoroughly re ?pensive to all government; if the court decides that bis coat and bis cloak shall both be taken from bint, be shall unmurmuriimly submit, even though lie realize that such a procedure would be unjust and quite at variance with the Divine regulation Saint Paul ii* well as Jesus used argument in his own defense. not* only with the mob?, but also before judges: but they resist ed the law?uever.
