es of this association and commends
most heartily the great good which
has already been accomplished by our
national, State and county officers
with the very meager means.
I'VE find, after careful investiga-
ton, that many Of our State and ma
tional officers and others who appre.
ciate the great cause for which we are
working, have given their services not
only free of charge, bat have expend
ed their private funds in advancing
the interests of the Southern Cotton
Association We therefore recon
mend that every servant, being wor
thy OF his hire, is entitled to pay com
the county to the national officers
salaries commensurate with their ser
vices and intelligence be paid, and
that it be the sense of this meeting
in appreciation of the great saving to
the cotton growers of the South by
the workings of this association, that
the obligation hangs heavily upon the
farmer to pay up dues and assess
ments promptly, that all of these.
things may be accomplished, and per.
petuated
''We recommend that in each coun
ty there be appointed an agent TO
the collection of the taxes and due,
of this association. and other sub
scriptions, who shall be paid out
the funds so collected reasonable
salary for his services.
1--WE also find upon investigation
that the association has been indorset
and supported morally and tinan-
cially, and literally so by banks, mer
chants. fertilizer companies. cotto.
oil companies. and last, bit not least
many OF our great railroad systems.
However. we deplore the failure or
the part Of some of our railroads to
appreciate this association as a grea'
industrial agency in the development
Of every interest in the South. We
solicit the continued support OF these
operating agencies in the business in
terests Of our State, and do hereby
address ourselves to those who have
failed to see in us the agent for the
working out of the great industrial
problems at this time confronting the
Southern people.
"And surther we have to thank the
press OF the South. and especially the
rural press of the State Of Mississip
pi. for the free use of their column:
and their hearty editorial support o
orr various movements.

RESOLUTIONS
Passed at a Recent Enthusiastic
Meeting at Jackson, Miss.

The committee on resolutions re-
ported as follows. same being q sub
stitute 90 a resolution that was Of
Tered on the floor OF the association
yesterday:
Whereas, The Southern Cotton
Association having been in existence
Tor less than one year and having in
that short period demonstrated its SUI
preme importance to the whole
Southern cotton belt, in protecting
the Southern people from the repacity
OF that reckless gang of SPECTATORS
who are and have been for years
banded together for the spoilation Of
our people, i'll maintaining a reason
able price in the face of the largest
crop ever grown. in firmly establish
ing The present good prices for the
staple now abating, in unearthing
the scandalous abuses in the agricul-
tural department at Washington
which were the cause OF the loss Of
millions Of dollars to the cotton rails
ers. and in showing the wonderful
possibilities of a united industry
therefore be it
Resolved, l. That we are entitled
TO the confidence and the co-opera-
ton OF every man, woman and child
in the cotton States. .
That we appeal to all citizens 10
come forward and join with us IL
presenting a bold and unbroken front
10 the assaults OF our enemies and
theirs
We believe that upon the mainte-
nance and perpetuation OF our asso-
citation depends the commercial and
industrial freedom OF the South We
believe the dissolution OF this organi-
zation would result in grinding pow
crty and widespread disaster to every
business interest, and we rely upon
the common snese and good iudg
ment OF our professional and bust
ness men to assist in preventing ST
dire and calamitous a contamination
Mississippi being largely an agri,
cultural State. we believe that the es
adjustment OF an agricultural depart
mcnt Is one imperative necessity, and
we bespeak the aid and invoke tbs
hearty assistance Of our fellow citi-
zens in accomplishing this object We
believe that a yearly appropriation OF
$4,000 Tor the proper and efficient
maintenance Of such branch Of our
State government woald be money

THAT if the people will respond t.
the assessment of the 3-cent bale tau
and thereby provide the association
with sufficient funds to extend the
organization into the territory III
which no work has been done, tho
control of the price of cotton will be
placed in the hands of the associa.
ton # a partial organization and a:
imperfect union of the farmers coz )
force the price of the crop of 1905
from 6 to 10 cents per pound and the
price OF the crop of 1905 to II cents
per pound, it follows that a perfect
and a general organization all over
the cotton belt would result in an alb
solute domination of the market and
long control the prices.
THAT Secretary Will H. Woods Is
authorized and instructed to prepare
a brief and concise statement of the
work Of the association and of the
results it has accomplished with a
view OF showing to the people how
much good the association has done
and that such statement be sent the
county officers for distribution as
