Columbia, Aug, 11??Farmer*, bank era, business men, cotton manufac? turers and cotton seed crushers from a score of counties, meeting in ?'o umbta yesterday organised the South Carolina Cotton congress. The meet? ing was called by H, J. WatSOU, pres? ident of the Southern Cotton congress. More than "?0 delegates were present at the meeting. The following resolution, intro? duced by Dr. Wade Stackhouse of Dillon, was adopted by the congress: "Whereas, from 8,000,000 to 5,000, 000 bales of this cotton crop is going to be a surplus more than the mills of the world will spin and will need to be carried over into next year by the farmer or his friends: "Resolved, That the South Carolina Cotton congress adopt the following plan and recommend it to our sister cotton producing States. "We suggest that at the earliest possible moment every cotton tanner be canvassed and requested to store one-third of this crop in a secure warehouse and fully insure, so that he can obtain a loan on it. "That at the time he is canvassed he be requested to hold this part of his crop for a minimum price of 12 1-2 cents per pound, basic middling; and that he give power of attorney to holder of the warehouse receipt au? thorizing him to hold the cotton for n period of one year, If necessary, and sell only in the event he can get a minimum pi ice of 12 1-2 cents. "When the canvass of a county is complete, if it is found that as much as one-third of this year's crop has not been pledged, the business men Ol that county ought to be asked to store enough cotton to make up that coun? ty's share. "It is agreed and understood that it' as much as I,000,000 bales are not pledged in the cotton States, each man's pledge is to be returned to him. "We believe if we can get pledged and put in warehouses one-third of this year's crop llxed by pewer of at? torney so that it can not be sold for less than 12 1-2 cents that the remain? ing two-thirds can be sold by the farmers themselves without aid to Unances. "In the event he can get pledged the minimum of 3,000,000 biles proposed above that he calls on merchants, bankers and OthSF business men to see that a liberal loan is made on cotton so placed. At the same time that the township committee secures the pledge to store one-third of this crop, wc recommend that each fann? er be asked to sign a pledge to reduce his acreage 50 per cent, which acre? age with intensive methods of culti? vation, will be sufficient enough to supply the world's needs when the amount carried is taken into consider? ation, one is to be requested to reduce his acreage if he plants not more than eight acres of cotton to the plow. This pledge to reduce acre ige shall also become null and void it the canvass falls to retire one-thrd Of this crop for minimum price of 12 1-2 cents." l>r. Stackhouse also introduced the following resolution, which was adopt? ed: "Resolved, That the South Car? olina Cotton congress indorse the principles Of what Is known as the Farmers' union State warehouse bill. "Uesolved Unit we request that no one sell a bale of cotton at any price before October 1, unless offered 12 cents for it as we recognize that there is no demand for cotton at present and any attempt to put it on the mar? ket will cause the price to drop be? low the cost of production." The meeting was called to order yes? terday morning in the convention hall of the Jefferson hotel. Dr. Wade Stackhouse of Dillon was elected pres? ident and S. F. Taylor of Columbia, secretary and treasurer. President Stackhouse isued a call for the county congress to be held August 27; when the plans of the State organisation Will be explained and put on a working basis.

I request that the names of president, secretary und treasurer and of the township com? mittee he mailed me at Dillon, s. C. "No plan of action can be an? nounced until the executive committee of the several cotton States can get to? gether and agree on a uniform plan from Texas to Virginia. "Finally, do not sell your cotton. We feel sure that in 30 to 00 days money will be plentiful and that you will rejoice you have not sacrificed vaiahie property because of a panicky feeling."
