SHOULD CONTROL PRICES.
Up to the present time every at
tempt to produce cotton anywhere
else has been a failure We have the
only country that will produce it, and
there is no reason why we should not
control it and fix the prices.
But you cant handle the cotton
crop as it is being handled in the
South now. You should not turn it
over to the street buyers-that is not
business. You are paying the sala-
ries of these men yourself. This sys-
TEN IS costing you millions of dollars
every year that ought to go.in your
pockets. Every cent that it-tosts to
get your cotton marke is charged
against your cotton and you pay the
freight.
Why, the cotton mill people are in
this movement. They want to see
cotton at staple price. They are
not only talking, but they have put
money in it. Not only the cotton
mills, but the bankers and the cities
and the cotton factors and the mer-
chants and all classes of business men
in the South are getting interested in
the proposition.
The Southern Cotton Association
is not class proposition. 1t is big
enough to take every man in who
wants to help us win this fight. There
is no conflict between us in any line
of business in the South and there
never will be.
The cotton company is the result
Of the New Orleans convention. We
realized that we had this surplus Of
100000 bales and that the Southern
people should take care of it. and
that to do so it would have tn be
held. Our plan is to get up a stock |
company of Sl0,000,000. But We are
going to wait until May l before ~

whether the acreage is going to be

The Golden Rule
BY Francis Murphy

The worlds Redeemer gave us anew
government and told us how we were
to conduct ourselves and what our
conduct should be to our neighbors, as
well, and this is his statement:
"All things whatsoever we would that
men should do to you, do ye even SO to
them, for this is the law and the
prophets"
This declaration of law goes to the
center of the heart of every man who
seeks to know the right and is desirous
of dealing justly and fairly with all
men.
This declaration was equal to the
Declaration of independence. 1t was
the mustard seed of the great republic
where every man was enfranchised
with personal responsibility in his deal
ings with his brother men. 1 think
can see our own blessed starry banner
lifted UP into the air by this glorious
declaration.
There is beautiful star in sight and
it's celestial radiance is illuminating
and inspiring mankind everywhere. No
matter what may be the statute law
governing municipalities and states and
nations this law of the worlds Re-
deemer stands supreme and is acknowl-
edged by all men to be right and just
and manly.
"All things whatsoever ye would"
please do not forget that; "All things
whatsoever We would that men should
do to you, do we even so to them, for
this is the law and the prophets" For
this is a greater and a better and a
juster law than the prophets ever gave
to the people. This law faithfully ad-
hered to would settle every dispute
there is between contending parties, in
his name, who is the author of this
law and whose service is perfect free
dom. Let us have courage to commence
the practice of it,
There are differences of opinion re-
garding institutions in our midst. Now
let us be tolerant, patient and manly.
Let us keep the command Of this
blessed declaration that we shall do

not unjust act to any man-that no
foul words shall be spoken.
We have a great cause-a cause Of
human liberty, of peace on earth, Of
good will to all men, and we are shown
how to maintain 1t BY him, who is the
prince of peace and the prince of par
liamentarians.. Every sweet word in the
English language is for US. The wea-
pons of our warfare must not be car
nal.
Let us be patient workers with him
who loved us and gave himself for us
and gave US new commandment that
we should love one another, that we
should serve one another, that the
strong should bear the infirmities of the
weak; that If brother is ever taken in
a fault, we, who are Christian, who
justly declare that we are followers of
Jesus Christ shall restore the erring
brother in a spirit of meekness and low
ing gentleness lest we also be tempted
and led astray. God be with you.
