26, 1904, to bring about harmony
among the producers, merchants
and bankers so as to advance the
price to ten cents per pound.
The world knows that through
this powerful organization the
price of spot cotton was ad !anced
to ten cents in the South on
July 3rd, just five months later
Not only this but the assistance
given the Bear operators by
certain officials in sthe United
States Department of Agriculture
was exposed through the efforts
of the Association and the ras-
Gals were promptly turned out
This work has already saved
millions of dollars to the South
and will continue to do so if fos-
tered and maintained by the peo-
pie. If the South could advance
the price OF 1000, 900 bale
crop from 6 cents to 10 cents.
clearly 1t would require but little
co operative effort to secure not
less than eleven cents for TO-
100000 bale crop.
Let the people know the truth,
know the power OF their strength
and then let them act promptly
and the victory for higher prices
will soon be won, then their
great staple viii be selling at its
real value to the world.

to the world beyond all ques-
tions of doubt that Southern
farmers have the ability, the de-
termination and the strength to
force the world to recognize their
power in maintaining a fair pric
for their products.
The Southern Cotton Associ-
alton must be maintained and
financed by the farmers of the
South. It's power to protect the
interest of the producers is re-
cognized and feared by all the
leading speculative and cotton
interests OF America and Europe.
If we go down in defeat the
enemy will be merciless and it
will take twenty years for the
South to recover again. Stand
by the Association and thereby
protect yodr individual interests
The South is both mentally and
financially able to manage and
protect her interests from the
dominating and devastating hands
of her enemies.

Address to Cotton Planters
Merchants and Bankers by
Harvie Jordan, President
Southern Cotton ASsocia-
ton.

ton Association, held at AShe-
vile, N. c., September 6S, 1905,
where representatives from each
cotton producing State and Teri
titory were present, a report on
the condition of the cotton crop
made up to August 25th, was
carefully compiled from returns
of more than $4,000 COrrespOn-
dents, showing IA condition OF 73
per cent as compared with a con-
dition OF S4 per cent for CORES
ponding period Of 1904. An es
innate OF the crop Tor this season
based on reports from the same
correspondents indicated yield
of 9,5SS,333 bales of cotton.
Taking this information as a
guide in connection with the
present enormous demand tor
spot cotton by the spinners OF
the world, the present high prices
of cotton goods, and the heavy
cost TO the producers for cult
waiting and harvesting this crop,
the committee agreed that eleven
cents as minimum price, basis
middling at all interior points,
would be reasonable and con-
Servative price TO be asked by
the producers this season for
their staple. 1t has been gener-
ally reported, and not publicly
denied, that spinners can pay
twelve cents per pound for mid
ding cotton at the present time
and still make good profits in the
manufacture of the raw material
into the finished fabric. Peace
has been recently declared be-
tween Russia and Japan. The
whole civilized world is in a
most prosperous condition and
the spindles in ell the cotton
mills of Europe and America are
running night and day to supply
the tremendous demands Tor cot
ton goods.
CONSUMPTION UNPRECEDENTED
The enormous crop of Ameri-
can cotton reaching the unpre-
cedented figures of nearly ii 900.
600 bales has been easily absorb
ed by the spinners at an average
price Of nine cents per pound
OF this crop there were only a
small reserve stock of little more
than a million to be carried into
season of 1905 6 on the first day
OF September. If no more than
ten million bales of cotton are
harvested this season to be added
to the small reserve stock carried
over from the crop Of 1904, the
mills of the world, at the present
rate of consumption, will face a
famine in raw cotton before an
ol her crop can be planted, cul-
tIvated and placed upon the mar.

MUST DO OUR DUTY.
Every man in the South, no
matter what his avocation, is ex-
pected to do his duty during the
coming months and to throw
his full moral and financial
ability in the great fight that we
have engaged in. Mhe "Bear"
spectators of Wall Street and
London are using every device
known TO human ingenuity to
depress prices. The Internation-
al Cotton Spinners of Great
Britain have combined to crush
the present efforts of the farmers
to maintain fair prices, and ex
pOrters are doing ali in their
power to hammer down the mar
ket. The solution Of the problem
is easy and simple. The ability
of the farmers to win this fight
is unquestioned. Stand together
as brothers, battling for the pro.
lection of your firesides and your
homes, your wives, children and
your country. Stop selling cot
ton at present prices. Call up
on your merchants and bankers
to aid you in the heroic strug-
gle that lies ahead. Store
the lint cotton under good sheds
to keep it dry on the farm or
place it in warehouses, where
the receipts are needed as col
lateral to borrow money to meet
maturing obligations. All other
lines of business borrow money,
why not the farmers, when by
SO doing they can hold their cot.

advance its price? Pay no at
tentiOn to the "bearishn litera
ture being printed and circulated
broadcast throughout the South
This is done with but one object
and that to discourage and in,
duce you to sell your cotton at
prices below its value. As pro,
ducers you know that the crop
is short and that unless You get
good prices, at least eleven cents
per pound, there will be but
little or no profit in this crop.
Hold your cotton and check
up the present heavy receipts
and demand not less than eleven
cents tor every pound of midd!ing
cotton you have to offer. The
Southern Cotton Association,

INTENSE HUNGER AND SUFFERING IN JAPAN
Relief Fund Makes Appeal for Aid Difficult to De-
Terrible the Multitude.

The News has received for publica-
ton the following appeal from the
japanese Relief Fund, with head
quarters in New York Mr.. B. F.
Buck, the secretary, in letter says
Every recent advices warrant me in
suggesting that it would be difficult to
even approximately describe the ter
rible suffering of the multitude of the
destitute families of deceased soldiers,
and of the thousands of sick and
wounded in the field
The Appeal.
Touching appeals from Christian
workers in the far east have come to
prominent citizens of the United
States, imploring aid for the sick and
wounded soldiers for both armies and
the multitude of destitute widows and
orphans of soldiers killed in the war.
Rev. Y. Honda, principal of the
Aoyama Theological School at Toxic,
Japan. in a recent letter says: How
long this distressing condition of
things will last we cannot say. The
people are doing their best and every
charitable agency is taxed to the ut
most, but so numerous have theimpOV-
erished families become that our
means of immediate relief are utterly
inadequate. Could some general fund
be raised for this noble purpose, and
missionaries on the ground be furnish
ed with the means of distributing and
alleviating the distress OF these fami-
lies, it would indeed be a preciOns gift
and [ assure you never be forgotten.
We may not help beligerants. but we
may help the suffering and distressed.
The Red Cross of Pity is neutral in
every cline, and the claims of help
less children are a challenge to chris
tian love and benefcence the world
over.
In response to the moving appeals
thus coming from christian workers in
Japan the japanese Relief Fund has
been organized to obtain the help
needed, and all funds contributed will
be distributed through the evangelical
alliance of Japan under the oversight
of Bishop Harris, who is now in that
country.

WHAT MANNER OF WILD ANIMAL WAS TIL
Varrnint Resembling Dog Caused Much EXETER
on the Premises of Mr.. J. M. Bridges
a Few Miles East of Dawson

The killing of twenty-seven chickens
and a young puppy was the few mo-
ments' work of some wild animal at
the home Of Mr.. j. NJ. Bridges seven
miles east of Dawson a few nights
ago.
Just what species of creature the
varmint was is not known, but it did
its work with a ferocity that indicated
the savage disposition Of some wild
animal of the forest.
Hearing cOmmo1iOn in the
poultry house, Mr.. Bridges and his
sons made their way hurriedly out into
the yard and arrived on the scene of
the disturbance as the animal that had
caused it ran out of the door of the
chicken house. Both fired at it, but
seemingly without effect, and finding
their vOlleys without result proceeded
to follow the creature, firing as they
went. If the animal was wounded it
gave no sign of it, and it was soon
out of sight.
Mr.. Bridges found on returning to
the poultry house that twenty-seven
chickens had been killed by the night
visitor, and an inspection of the re-
mainder of the premises showed that
young puppy had also fallen victim
to the attacks of the wild creature.
Mr.. Bridges and his son were un-
able to determine what sort Of animal
it was that wrought such havoc. 1t
was of grayish color and resembled
a dog in size and shape.
Their description of it would seem
to indicate that it belonged to the wolf
species, even though that animal is
not homogeneous to this section.
Whatever it is, the citizens of that
community are on the lookout for any
repeated visits on its part, and will
try to make short work of killing it if
it attempts any more depredations
thereabOut.
