New York. Dec S.-There was q
good deal of excited discussion of the
money market conditions today and
The stock market was inclined to fever
ishness from time to time. Neverthe-
less there was = variety &C vigorous
speculative movements, and no Seri-
Gus damage to .alueS was shown even

TO COTTON GROWERS.
A Live Suggestion for the State Meet
ing to &c Held in Raleigh.

To the Editor: The below sugges-
ton from the live, hustling, wide
awake president of Mecklenburg
County Cotton Association is to the
point ana worthy of adoption. Let
every cotton growing county in the
State instruct it's president to attend
the State convention to be held in the
city OF Raleigh, January 3, 1905, for
the very purposes named by Mr..
Moore.
The people are ready for organiza-
ton and now is the time to strike, but
there is a great deal in knowing just
how to strike so as to make a proper
weld
Mr. Moore has just completed the
most thorough and successful cam
paign in organizing the cotton farmers
of Mecklenburg county that has been
made in the State. He will be at the
convention in Raleigh and will tell
others just how he d ID it.
We want this to be the largest and
best convention Of farmers ever held
i'm the State; and want every county
president to be sure and attend so
he can learn just how Mr.. Moore sue
ceeded 50 admirably in his county
Reduced rates to the convention
over the different railroads have been
asked for
r. B. PARKER, Secretary.
Charlotte, NJ c., Dec. 8, 1905.
Mr. r. b. Parker.
Dear Sir: l tn nix good results will
follow the assembling at Raleigh,
January 8, of all presidents of coun-
ty cotton associations for the pur-
pose cf being informed and mapping
out a line of work. Cool fellows will
be warmed up by those already hot.
Next year viii be the critical time.
and every effort possible should be
made for the work to be done in 1905.
Mecklenburg is ready to trot with the
other counties. but we want cVerJ
cotton growing county to get in line
and do about.
Yours truly,
&C. c. MOORE"

There was considerable liquidation by
