SOUTHERN
GROWERS
VS.. WILSON

Atlanta. Ga. July 3i.-The Southern
Cotton association will follow its work
In bringing to light the methods pursued
by prominent officials connected with
the bureau OF statistics Of the depart
ment OF agriculture by requesting the
resignation Of Secretary James L. VII
son. on the ground of incompetency The
Hon. Harvie Jordan. president Of the
Southern Cotton association. says:
"The charges preferred by the South
ern Cotton association against certain
high officials In the bureau OF statistics
two months ago have been fully sus-
tained, and the developments in the scan
dal as Investigations proceed have star
tied and amazed the producers and bust
ress interests OF the entire country.
'It has developed condition OF graft In
the department Of agriculture that might
well be compared TO official dishonesty
charged under the present administration
OF certain government officials OF the
Russian empire.
THE present high head OF the de-
partment OF agriculture has proved a
stumbling block TO the investigation from
its incipiency.
"Mr. Wilson ridicued the original
charge that Holmes the assistant chief
statistician had falslfed and manipu
lated the June report on cotton acreage
or that he had given out any advance
Information. But this charge was clear
ly proved and Holmes was discharged
from the department.
Mr.. Wilson then objected TO any fur
ther investigation and the president took
the matter into his hands and forced a
continuance of the Investigation through
the department OF Justice
"Mr. Wilson then said that his chief
statistician, John Hyde. was thoroughly
honest, competent. and was not guilty
OF wrongdoing. yet last week II was
proved that Holmes sat az the elbow OF
Hyde while the June report was being
falsihed. and the advance information
given out to Holmes confederates
1T has also been proven that the to-
bacco report was falsifed for specula tive
purposes. and now the grain producers
OF the west are charging the depart
ment with having manipulated the grain
reports.
LAS a result OF these scandalous hap
penings in the department Of agriculture.
Secretary Wilson's resignation will be alb
solutely necessary TO inspire confidence
among the producers OF the trade gen
