COTTON FIGHT
ALREADY WON.
Smith Hyatt Address
Entl tic Audience.
NO COMPETITION.
Even at Ten and Twelve Cents Other
Countries Cannot Make Cotton
a Profitable Crop.

President Smith and Treasurer Hyatt
of the South Carolina Cotton Growers
Association, addressed representative
body of Laurens county farmers and
business men in the Court House on
Wednesday at 2.30 o'clock. There were
men here from every section of the
county and the Court room was packed
to overlooking. The speakers were fol-
lowed by the audience from beginning
to end and were frequently interrupted
by bursts of applause; the interruptions
were not after the manner of the how
lings of henchmen, but were from men
who understood point when made and
who could grasp business proposition.
The addresses were in line with the
proceedings adopted by the New Or
leans Convention.
Mr. Smith urged upon the people the
Importance of the fight they are max
ing; that it was for the salvation and
prosperity of the whole South; that the
farmers assisted by the bankers and
merchants held the key to the situation
and if they would but stand firm, the
fight was already won. He believed
from the evidences that he found every
where that they were going to stick,
that they were full of enthusiasm and
grim determination and further were in
a position to hold out to the uttermost.
He showed by statistics and drove
home to the people the fact that ten
million bale cotton crop brought more
ualmoney to the South than an eleven
million bale crop to say nothing of the
expense of making it.
He showed where the farmers of the
West had set the price for their wheat
and when the world said it did not
need so much wheat, had built elevators
to store the surplus until the world did
want it and was willing to pay legiti-
mate profit for it,; that the South had
God given monopoly in the produc-
tion of cotton, that no other country in
the world could come in competition
with the South in its production even at
10 and IL cents the pound.
He stated that the Grange had failed
and the Alliance had failed for the rea-
son that the farmers had made the
mistake of believing that the world was
united to keep them down. Now they
were awakened to the full knowledge
that no mans hand was against them,
but every man for self; that the pros
perity of the individual depended on
the prosperity of the country and the
prosperity of the whole country de-
pended on the prosperity of the farmer.
The banks and the merchants realize
this and that this fight is for the com
mon cause and are freely giving their
substantial aid.
