farmer hal no voice in the price his

for protest from every cotton

foretaste OF what the trusts will do

re- kiudlei in the breast of every

at u o'clock and there unite with
your fellow farmers in saying so

a strong delegation To attead the
state meeting in Raleigh the -. h.
Do not stay away and expect v ur
neigkhOr to go, but go yourself aud
take him with you. This appeal is
not made to any special class OF cot

one in the state. There is no time
now for divisions or quibbling, tut
all should work in harmony with
each other. We also invite the
business and proft men to

presence and influence will be ap-

a letter just received from Ilarvie
Jordan, President of the Southern
Cotton Growers Protective Associa-

he will endeavor to get the farmers
In every southern state to cooperate

the part OF the farmers the pri g
fixed by the OIL Mill man can be
"untixed" as was the price Of jute
bagging ten yeas ago.
The farm-r who refuses to act
now should in the future keep quiet
about the oppression of the trusts,
for he practically surrenders his
birth-right. The farmers have the
key to the situation. Let there be
unity of action and success will be
certain.

south of Middleburg, east, it is necessary
to repel the invasion promptly: and the

OMAHA. Neb., Dec. S1.-At a
specially called meeting of the
CITY council that body todav
unanimously adopted a concur
rent resolution Offering a re-
ward of $4,000 for the appre-
hension and conviction of the
desperadoes who abducted Ed
ward Cudahy Jr., on the night
OF Dec. 3. For the arrest and
conviction Of one, the resolution
provides a reward of $1,000; for
two, SIS, 900 will be paid. and the
Whoie amount is offered for
three principals.
The council also asked Mr.
Cudahy to withdraw his offer
or reward of an equal amount
Tor the capture of the Grim
1nals. The object of the city'a
offer is largely to relieve Mr.
Cudahy and his family Of the
rear of reprisals from the
bandits and to remove from
the police and detectives the
restraint they have felt in trail
Ing the bandits on account or
very trying position in which
MI Cudahy has been placed.
The action of the council Is
generally commended by the
citizens of the city.

matter today, made the follow
Ing statement:

It was more dangerous to run away

in Sangamon county, Ills, that had the
reputation Of running faster and fight

Everybody thought he was q terrible
fighter. He'd always get man on the
run; then he'd catch up and give him a
licking. One day ne tackled q lame
man. The lame man licked him in a
minute.
""Why didn't ye runY somebody
asked the victor.

when he tackled me, an I've been lame
ever since
