Circular No. r.
l. Sheriffs and others concerned are informed
that General Orders No. IL, current series, from
these headquarters, applies, SO far as the crops
are concerned, to the crops not gathered or har-
vested, and that cotton or other productions Of
the soil, gathered and ready for market, arc as
liable for debt as other property.
II. To secure, however, an equitable adjust
ment OF the claims upon this years crops In dis
putcd cases, where the laborers become a party
In the dispute, Boards OF Arbitration will be In
stituted, composed Of three persons; two OF
whom will be selected by the two parties to the
question, and the third by the two thus chosen.
The decision Of these Boards will be final, and
they will be respected and enforced by all parties
and officers, civil or military, having Jurisdiction
In the questions adjudicated.
III. Boards of Arbitration will consider and
adjust the claims mis- years crops, accrued in
Its production, OF the laborer the party furnish
ing supplies consumed on the plantation, the
planter and the landlord only; and these claims
will have precedence Of all others on this years
crops. The claims Of the laborer will be the first
satisfied. This Is deemed necessary to afford
proper encouragement to free labor. But in
cases where the portion OF the crop allotted to
the employer Is insufficient to satisfy the claim
of the party furnishing the supplies, the de-
ficiency will be hlled out OF the allotment to the
laborer.
Nv. When the landlord or merchant enters
complaint before q magistrate that a tenant at
tempts, in collusion with his isborers to defraud
them, by assigning to the laborer an undue share
of the crop, the question will bo adjusted by a
Board OF Arbitration, selected as above directed,
the plaintiff being one of the party selecting a
member Of the Board, and the laborers the other
party, and the decisions Of the Board will be en-
forced by the officer before whom the complaint
| Is made.
