Co?"n Association in New Orleans, , Hoke Smith, of ' I e. i nr la, Bf sprung a surprise when he said : "I earnestly hope that the farmers ' B" will quit raising cotton unless they ' can receive a vastly better price for 1 WM it." f The Senator advised farmers to keep new cotton off the market entirely during September and then ' I f sell slowly, only as manufactturqfs ' need it. T?U ~ 1- ? 11 I ?i I . X IIC UUIl WCl'VII IS I1< I|IIIIK '< r'" duce the amount of cotton and th< 1 reduction of acreage planted and and ' holding cotton off tin- market are ' W three' important factors, l>ut us t< k raising no cotton in the cotton belt, v H that is a proposition that will not up 1 peal to the Southern farmer. The Kreat Southern staple will come into its own, its it is an indispensable pro. duct of the Southern soil. Cotton will not abdicate its throne. HON. W. F. STEVENSON Our congressman has betn tellinv I . H the hitfh protective tariff men in con B ffress some plain truths and showinj the extreme selfishness and unfair I, B^1 ness of their contentions. He has no - hesitated to attack the leaders of tlx !"itfh tariff monopoly, to beard the lioi. IMs den. In a recent debate Mr. Stevenson , B criticised the method of the men wh< B are putting over legislation that wil m favor their favorites at the expense ' of the yreat mass of common people ' Replying to Mr. Fordney, of Michi j?an, one of the ablest of the hitf! tariff advocates, Mr. Stevenson use? , these plain words to show the selfish , ness and unfairness of their projects , He said in part: "The gentleman from Michigai (Mr. Fordney) was very solicitou about this bill, which helps to markc , wheat, corn and cotton and manufac tured goods, lest it cause the pric of living to advance by raising th< price of such articles owing to fre , markets for them. He shows no suci solicitude when he, as chairman ol the Ways and Means Committee, re. ports bills to this House. He has re i portpd and passed through this IIoust i four bills, to wit, one to increase thi price of surgical instruments ami a * glass for certain eyeglasses. So thai t there is an extra charge coming to th< man who loses his appendix to a doc- I to, or the child who has defective eyes and jnust wear glasses. He gol * the lame, the halt, and lh" near blind there. Second, hill to add $2,000 a ton to the tax on tungsten used t< harden steel for tools, making th? * tariff about $2,150 a ton on that, in creasing thus the cost of the tools ol ( the mechanic who builds your home * and makes and repairs your piachinery. Third, a hill to * increase the tarifT on buttons s raising the price of buttons on the clothes of the boys and girls, the men, ' and the women fn every walk in life Fourth, a hill to increase the price of zinc. This gets everybody who has a galvanized roof or bucket or cu| or anything else galvanized. It spe. cially raises the price of many neces 1 sary household articles for (he poor. So after putting up the price of these necessary things for the benefit of < manufacturers, he proposes to salve his conscience by trying to defeat this bill and beat down the price of the farmers' surplus, which he must sell ? in the marketi of the world and in ^ competition with the world, and of 4 which there is a surplus in this a country, which would cause ruin to , the agricultural sections if it could not be sold abroad. <, "In this purpose the gentleman , from Ohio (Mr. Fessj, chairman i . the Republican congressional compiittee, is an able aid. He voted for the H tariff bills to raise the price of pro- v ducts so protected and refuses to a vote for this bill for fear it will main- * tain the present prices for fahn pro j, ducts. A noble pair of brothers, with c bowels of compassion for the protected manufacturer, but with a marble t heart for the farmer who produces f mora than this country can use." ] ABANDONED COTTON [ Senator Smith, of South Carolina,- 1 introduced in the Senate the follow- c Mtf^^^^Msolution that was adopted: That the Secretary hereby the number ^ ^^^^H^^rultivation the Mj^H^^R^^H^EHktwhen made by . ctober, will put the cotton situation efore the country in a shape that nil cause cotton to bring in market /hat it is worth. It will also cause he cotton hears to growl. "VENGEANCE IS MINE." It hasn't been many years ago that irohibition was the most interesting opic in the State of Tennessee. Etlvard Carmack was the champion of he prohibition side. He fought the aloon and liquor interests tooth and tail. He fought them politically, and n The Nashville Tennesseean, of vhich he was editor. Malcolm R. Patterson was on the ither side. He t'?ok the whiskey end >f the fight so long a3 that seemed o have the majority. Colonel Duncan Cooper, a wealthy Mashville citizen, was bitterly aligned on the liquor side. Carmack lad much to say in criticism and de ision of Colonel Cooper and Patterion. But Patterson got to be goverler through the support of the liquor dement. Carmack kept up the fight for prolibition. Cooper and Patterson were iquor leaders, and they, of course >ame in his line of fire. Colonel Cooper, it is said, threatined CaPmaek's life, if he persisted n his criticisms in his newspaper, friends of Carmack urged him to irm himself. He smiled, and went inarmed. One day Colonel Cooper stood on >ne side of one of the principal i horoutrhfares of Nashville, as Car-I nark, (inarmed, passed by on the <ther side. With Cooper was his son. toth Coopers opened tire on Carmaek, he unarmed man on the other side >f the street. There they were, two lien, armed, against one man unirmeil. Both fired deadly shots at Earmark, who fell mortally wounded, these two "brave" Tenncsseans, 1'c? 1 mel Cooper, and his son, Itohin, are .aiil to have "boldly" tired at theii dctim after lie was dead on the sidevalk. . Had the Germans been guilty of >uch a deed during the war, contilents would have been shaken by the lews of the "atrocity." But the "oopers were wealthy and influential, i hey went through the trial which .vas a mockery of justice. Younp dobin and his father were both co.i.dcted, and tfiven litrht sentences, ijovernor Malcom It. 1'atterson w is governor of Tennessee, and quickiy pardoned both the murderers of ('arnaek, and they served none of then ientence. Itohin Cooper set up a law office in vashville, and lived on a handsome state just outside the city, in luxury. i he Covernor of Tennessee had par toned him for his crimp against so :iety. But there was a lusher powei han any human official did that mwer ever pardon him? Itohin t%>|ier was free, so far as nan's punishment could K<> ?but was ie free from the whips and scorns ol onscience ? "He that lives by the sword shall lied by the sword." Last Friday nitfht some unknown lerson called Robin Cooper to tin loor off his home, took him in an lUtombile, and that nitrht his dean ?ody was found, his head crushed, i he author if the deed has not yet ?een found. No human'hand was ever raised to ivengc the foul, cold-blooded mur ler of Senator Carmack. Hut ?
