"COTTON WILL 60 BEGGING
IF WE DUPLICATE CROP"
President Jordan Says Mills Cannot Handle 49, 000 900
Bale Crop This Year. Panic Will Follow An
other Immense Cotton Crop in 1905.

looms to weave it. Realize that, and
then tell me the southern farmers will
raise such another crop.
''Think of that, we raise 1000, 900
bales, and yet 100000 bales drug
the markets to such an extent that the
mills cannot possibly handle them,
not having the mechanical facilities
for weaving that many bales of cot
ton.
THE price of cotton must depend on
the supply, and if we allow the supply
to again exceed the demand as it has
done this year the results will be dis
astrous to the south. The farmers
will not be the only people injured.
Every line of trade suffers when cot
ton, up to this time the chief commod-
ity of the south, is being sold below
the cost of production.
''There is but one thing the south
ern farmer can do to prevent this de-
preston, and that is to cut his cotton
crop, diversity his products and force
the mill men and spectators to give
him living prices for his raw mate
rial.
'The fertilizer people say their
sales are almost as good as they were
last year. That may be true, posi-
bly, is, but from all the information
that has come to hand and from per-
sonal observation | believe the farm
ers are using more fertilizers for till
ing corn lands and less for cotton
LANDS. We have advised them to fer
tilize corn lands and raise all the
corn they can, and let all this cotton
alone.
"Of course the south must raise
cotton, but nine million bales will be
an ample sufiiciency for 1905, and
more than ten million will be ruin
Gus. But I have faith enough in the
southern farmer to believe he will
realize that the more cotton he raises
the more harm he does himself, and
he will cut his cotton crop.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1905-04-12

Cotton will go begging on the
streets at 4 cents pound if we dupli-
safe the 1904 crop in 1905.
t'Such a condition as that, at this
present time, would mean a business
panic in the south.
Farmers and business men must
learn that, and they must reduce the
cotton crop for 1905. More than
nine or ten million bale crop will do
irreperable damage to the south.
In detailing the trip to the west and
telling of the conditions in The va
rious cotton growing states, Presi-
dent Harvie Jordan of the Southern
Cotton Association made the state
ment to the Atlanta Journal that if
the ID, 600, 900 bale crop were duplicat-
ed, the south would suffer terribly from
business depression, if not panic.
Il have been all over the south and
am familiar with the conditions of
which | speak" he continued. "The
situation is simply this:
Every cotton mill is running full
time, making up cotton goods. The
cotton crop this year has been 13,000,-
900 bales. Two million of these bales
have been retired from the market and
are being held for higher prices. So
we have to figure on IL, 900, 900 bales.
Now, with these 11,0O0,0O bales,
there is more cotton in the world than
there are spindles to make it up and

BROWN TELLS HOW IT WAS
TALKS OF HIS INTERVIEW FAV-
ORING TWO-PRIMARY PLAN.
Has Nothing to Say in Answer to
Chairman YeOmAn's Interview
in the Dawson News.

Hon J. Pope Brown, chairman Of
the railroad commission and prOspeo.
tive candidate for governor, has given
out a statement explanatory of his
recent interview published in Savan-
nah and telegraphed over the state in
which he declared in favor of the in
PRODUCTION into Georgia OF the South
Carolina election plan.
The interview in question was pub
lished in Savannah on March %, when
the railroad commission was on a
visit to that city. 1t was generally
commented upon by the state press,
and The Dawson News printed an
interview from Chairman NJ. j. Yeo-
mans of the state democratic executive
committee showing that the effect of
introducing the South Carolina .pri-
mary plan into Georgia would be to
rob of their political power all of the
smaller counties of the state, and put
Wy pONCA III UllC AulAOo
of the larger counties.
In his statement given out to the
Atlanta Constitution while in that
city Mr.. Brown does not go so far as
to say that he does not favor the
South Carolina plan for Georgia, but
says simply that he is not familiar
with the details of that plan and that
he had in view that in the event of
deadlock in the convention it would
be better to arrange to have the two
leading candidates run the race over
than to have some one nominated
who had not been voted for in the
primary.
When asked about Chairman Yeo-
mans interview, Mr.. Brown wrote the
following, which is given just as
furnished by him, as follows:
81 am not familiar with the details
of the South Carolina plan, and have
given the matter but little thought.
For the information of those interested
[ will state just what [ have said
about the matter, and the circum-
stances under which it was said.
'ELast week while in Savannah it
as'suggested that from present indi-
cations there would be several entries
in the gubernatorial race. 1t was also
suggested that possibly there would
he a deadlock in the convention and
that some one might be nominated who
had not been voted for in the primary,
whereupon l made the remark that
rather than have such state of affairs

JUDGE GRIGGs TO FARMERS.
What the Congressman Said in Speech
Over in Randolph.


The Cuthbert Leader has the follow.
ing to say of the speech Congressman
Griggs delivered to the farmers OF
Randolph county the other day.
In the beginning Judge Griggs ex-
planned why he had declined to speak
at recent meeting of farmers in this
county. He feared that political sig
nifcance might be enormously attach
ed to the meeting. He had come in re-
Spouse to a second invitation.
The speaker said that the prosperity
of the whole country is dependent to a
large extent upon the success of the
southern farmer. 1t is right for them
to organize. They should have more
confidence in each other. They should
not be discouraged if little should be
accomplished this year. No trust ever
made money the first year of its ex-
istence. Reforms come slowly.
He urged the farmers to raise more
food stuffs and cattle.
In conclusion he advised the farmers
to pay more attention to educating
their children and instructing them to
continue the organization just begun.
The address produced favorable
impression, the speaker being fire.

LAURENs NEGROES.
Str anger Claims to Be Doctor and
ForeteIIs Sickness.

For some time the people of Laur-
ems county have been disturbed over
the strange actions of a man who
claims to be doctor, and who lives
entirely with the negroes and rarely
goes out in the day time. When he
does show himself he seems to desire
to prevent his face from being seen.
1t is said that he has succeeded in get
ting a good deal of money out of
negroes by telling them that he is in a
position to secure for them govern
ment land, for which the fee is s.. 80.
He also makes the negroes pay him
for prescriptions when they are not
sick and have not consulted him. He
looks at them, tells them that he is
able to foretell coming illness and
that they can avoid being sick by
taking his medicine.

FIRE IN QUITMAN COUNTY.
Rev. l. c. WilkersOn Loses His Res
idence and Its Contents.

Saturday evening at about o'clock
the residence of Rev. l. C. Wilkerson
and Mrs. c. S. Madison, three miles
from Georgetown, together with very
nearly all of the contents, was de.
stroyed by fire. The fire was discov-
cred in the roof under good Roadway.
Mr.. Wilkerson was in Cuthbert at the
time and the boys off in the field, and
before help could be had the fire was
under such Roadway that very little of
the household goods could be saved.
The house was large twO-stOry build
ing, and the fire was so great that
even many things that were thrown
out were burned. This falls very
heavily on these people, as they had
no insurance whatever and are thrown
out of doors with a large family. The
loss is probably between $500 and
81, 900. -Eufaula Times.
