following resolutions, offered by J.. B.
Yellowly, of Madison County, were
adopted: aHel -
"Resolved, irst, That in tho opinion
Of this convention, the recent advance
in tho price Of cotton is without good
cause and has been brought about by
msnipulators Of the market for a pur-
pose, that purpose being to check the
growing sentiment favoring a reduction
Of acreage to bo planted in cotton for
tho coming crop and by encouraging
the production of large crop. secure
heavy surplus at the end Of the season
TO weigh down the price.
"Second-T to insure the produc-
tion of the staple articles Of life. bread
and meat, the farmers OF Mississippi
should increase their crop at least 33h
per cent. - .-st 5sr.az si ,..e %
"rhird--That economy should be the
wach-word and self-denial the practice
of very farmer during the present year.
'Fourth-That no delusive phantom
of lope based upon fictitious advances
in he value of products, or upon the
ida that he may outwit his neighbor,
sh uld lead any farmer to abandon the
wei established principle that all farms
sh huld be self-sustaining."

WHAT HE THINKS.
Col. Dodson an 0bservant Gentleman
in our City.--He Talks to a
Texarkanian Reporter.

The reporter OF the TExAEKANIAN
wandered into the general offices of
the X G. P. h G. road this morning
and was introduced to Col, Dodson
who has contract on the north
end of this same road, He said:
We have the dirt piled up for some
five miles beyond the river and the
ties strung most OF the distance,
The piling in the bottom for trest-
ling have been driven and the whole
work will be completed inside of
two weeks if high water does not
prevent. Of course the timbers on
the piling have not been placed, for
the reason that the rails must be
laid up to the place where this work
is to be done, so the timbers can be
delivered, and just as soon as the
bridge is completed with its railroad
stringcrs and ties and the tram can
get across, the five miles now grad
ed will be completed and trains will
make daily trips,
The reporter then asked the Col
onel what he thought of our city.
"Think of It'll" he exclaimed. "Why,
since / have been nyour city ] have
heard nothing but machine shop
talk. Say, do you know" contin-
ued Mr., Dodson, chat this city
can double its population in a short
time, if it will secure railroad shops2
Look at Denison, a few years ago a
small city on the banks of Red river,
while Sherman, a large, prosperous
city a few miles of, was then con-
sidered the queen of the prairie.
She was offered everything that
Denison received but today Dcni-
son is the master of the situation,
IN capital and number of inhabi-
tants, and the pay rolls of the shops
there will foot up $15O,OOO month,
Look at Palestine, Tyler, Marshall
and all the shop towns in Texas,
and you will find a busy and pros
porous people. "
The Colonel is a young man in
years, but the reporter found him
aged in wisdom, when it comes to
talking horse sense IN matters per-
tanning to the building and keeping
up of a city, The Board of Trade
should make an appointment with
this brilliant young man and have
him give them a talk, as it would
enthuse them to work with renewed
