|ly New Orleans Delegates at Home.
()f All of the delegates from the
Union county cotton association to
,g* the convention of the Southern
(l' Cotton Association which met in
Ug New Orleans January 11, 12 and
. a 13 returned last Sundayf We have
. seen and talked with Dr. M. W,
er Culp and Judge J. M. Greer, both
of whom are elated over the trip
rn 1 and the good work accomplished
d- hy the association. Dr. Culp says
j5 that the convention was composed
^f. of some of the most prominent and
lC8 intelligent men of the cotton states,
i and that unity and harmony of
I thought, ideas and action charac^
terized the entire proceedings.
Both Dr. Culp and Judge Greer
feel assured that the resolutions
adopted which secures the coopcra0f
tion of the mill men and spinners
,1(1 with the cotton planters is a giant
,a_ stride in the direction towards uniftn
fying and identifying the material
,cr interest of both parties, which have
I heretofore been rather antagonistic
than otherwise. The support of
,xk the merchants and hankers is
jg. another assurance of unqualified
success of the plans and purposes of
tho association, all of which no
farmer need entertain any fears
about tho same being carried out,
provided the farmers all stick toI
gether and obey instructions.
| Another great project was disK*k
cussed and favorably received, that
! of making New Orleans tho great
i.; shipping point for agricultural products,
direct to foreign countries.
