FARMERS URGED TO
 HOLD COTTON BACK
State President of Southern Cotton ton Association Issues an Ad-
 dress to Cotton Growers.
To the people of Arkansas:

To the people of Arkansas:
 During the past two weeks the receipts of cotton at the ports have been enormous, showing beyond all question of doubt that thous- ands of of farmers are marketing their cotton as rapidly as 1t can be picked and ginned. It Is absolute ly necessary that the producers check the heavy receipts, by hold ing the cotton off the market. We expect to advance the price to II cents, as recommended by the Southern Cotton Association at Asheyille, N. C., on the 7th inst To do this, recommend that there be meetings called in all the town ships of the several counties of this state, and pass resolutions to hold for the price agreen upon, as above stated, and to take a deter mined stand against the present. strong combinations which have been formed to defeat us in our eff forts to secure fair prices for our products. The bearish spectators in New York, and the combined spinners of Europe and New Eng land, are moving heaven and earth to cripple these farmers organi- cations and depress prices to much lower levels.
 The Farmers Educational and Cooperative Union. The Ameri can Society of Equity and the Far mers' Alliance are all working in thorough harmony with the South ern Cotton Association. All these strong farmers organizations are committed to minimum price of II cents, and are urging their members to stand firm.
 1 would especially urge the county officials of the Southern Cotton Association to do all in their power to keep this matter before their people, and to call meetings and devise means by which you can keep them posted on this vital question. We are faced with a short crop, with an enormous demand on the part of the mills, who are selling their cotton goods at high prices, and there should be no difficulty in ad- vancing the price to II cents per pound, if the farmers will only check the heavy movement to the market. The time for action has come, and if we would free our selves from the oppression of the 'Bearish spectators" and hold the ground we have already gain ed, we must act and act now.

William J. Clarke, editor of the
Gervais Star, makes the following
straightforward announcement of his
candidacy for the office of State
Printer in the last number of his
paper.
"The editor of this paper will be a
candidate at the coming direct primary
convention for the position of State
Printer of Oregon. We ask the
suffrage of the people of Oregon and
will do our best to land the Job. In
the event of failure to obtain the
coveted office, there will be no bruises
on VIM. j. Clarke; neither will there
be any sores to heal. All we ask is
an equal show, fair treatment and a
square deal.
Billy Clarke is a hustler from away
back, and now, that he has entered
the race for State Printer, the people
can rest assured that there will be
something doing every minute until
the polls close at the primary con-
vention.

is bigger than the constitution. F" has
allowed him to draw from the treasury.
Dir. Geer's statement that the
vicious methods Of a few Oregon
i newspapers are responsible for what
ever Of Democratic ascendency Is now
4 prevailing in our state and county
/ governments, is hardly worthy Of an
answer. The only Democratic state
officer in Oregon is Governor George
/ E. Chamberlain, and be was elected
/ by the Geer influence. While the Re
publican newspapers were working
I for the success of W J. Furnish,
/ Geer's personal followers were busy
( in every county iD the state il al
effort to defeat the Republican candi-
date. Here in Polk County. certain
influential friends Of Mr.. Geer worked
early and late for Chamberlain. with
( the resulttha the Republican majority
was overcome and the county was
carried by the Democratic candidate.
Many Of these Geer men openly
boasted after election that they voted
for Chamberlain. The number Of
Republican votes cast for Chamberlain
in Polk County alone would have been
sufficient to have elected Furnish, had
they been cast for the Republican
nominee.
The same course was pursued in
every other county in the state, and,
50 far as is known, Mr.. Geer made no
effort to stop the slaughter It might
be unfair 10 charge that Geer himself
fought Furnish, but it is a significant
fact that the orat0ry Of the Tall Syca-
more was not heard in that campaign. .
And all Republicans will recall the
circumstance ofthe Governor sudden .
departure for Roseburg after he had
promised to be present and preside .
over the Furnish rally in Salem.
Business had never been so pressing
at the Soldiers Home before, and
probably win never be again.
1t now seems certain that Mr. Geer
will again be a candidate for the
nomination for Governor. just how
he expects to square himself with the
friends Of Mr.. Furnish for his course
In the last state campaign is not
known, but he is prolific letter-writer
and will probably explain his position
later on. Having once had a taste Of
high life, he will hardly be contented
to 60 back to his farm in the classic
Waldo Hills. Your modern Cincin-
natus is ever ready to leave his plow,
but is usually in no hurry to get back

Elated by his success in leading the
people Of Oregon to adopt the "initi.
ative and referendum" and the "direct
primary" nominating system, Popu-
list U'Ren has sprung another new
tangled proposition on the unsuspect.
ing public His latest proposed
constitutional amendment is perhaps
the most radical and dangerous
measure that has ever been present. ted
for the consideration Of the voters of
Oregon. 1t is termed the imperative
mandate" and provides that % per
cent of the voters shall have the right
to discharge any public officer To
make such discharge, 25 per cent of
the voters Of his election district may
file their petition demanding his i'm
mediate resignation. If the officer
refuses to resign, special election
shall be called forthwith to elect his
successor. Under the provisions of
the proposed amendment, it will not
be necessary to prefer charges of any
kind against an officer before de-
manding his resignation. OF all the
un-American measures ever offered
for the serious consideration of the
people, the imperative mandate" is
the worst. 1t is to be hoped that the
citizens Of Oregon will nip the pro-
posed iniquitous amendment in the
bud by refusing to sign a petition to
submit it to vote. Oregon has
certainly had a sufficient dose of
and fanaticism.
