He Is COmpIimented By President JOr-
dan Of the Cotton Association.

Gov. Vardaman returned to
jackson Wednesday from an ex-
tensive campaign in the interest
of the objects and purposes of the
Cotton Association, after having
made numerous speeches in be-
half of acreage reduction and di-
Yersification of crops. The Gov
ernor is greatly impressed with
the earnestness and zeal of the
farming people and in talking
about the results of his trip said:
II have talked TO more than ten
thousand farmers since last Thurs
day, and ] am convinced that they
are greatly interested in the ques-
tion of diversifying their crops
and reducing the cotton acreage.
The cotton growers of Mississippi
will reduce the acreage not less
than 90 per cent. and possibly
more than 25 per cent. The peo-
pie are interested in this matter
more than | have ever known
them to be interested in any sub
ject."
Asked if he would continue
speaking during the month of
A pril the Governor said: mo, /
shall have to decline great many
invitations now on hand. There
are several things to be done in
the Office here which may make it
necessary for me to remain in
jackson for the greater part of
this month. | am very greatly
interested in this farmers move
ment, and would like to give,
every day from now until it is too
late to plant cotton, but my first
duty is to the Office to which the
people have elected me. | have
few appointments which | shall
fill, but after that | shall make no
mole.o
On the day he got back to the
capital, the Governor received a
letter from President Harvie Jor-
dan, of the Southern Cotton Asso-
citation, in which Mr.. Jordan says:
i have noted through the press
the splendid work which you are
doing in your State in behalf of
the objects and purposes of the
Southern Cotton Association. The
present field work which you are
doing will exercise much more
good towards bringing about
curtailment of the acreage of cot
ton and in raising enthusiasm in
your people than could possibly
be done by an address through the
press. |, therefore, doubly thank
you for the course that you are
pursuing and wish that the Gov
ernors of every State in the South
would adopt your plan. The re-
ports which are coming to me
from all the cotton States and
Territories are encouraging at the
present time, and unless | am bad
~ advised we will win out in the
fight which we have been making
for the past sixty days. In be-
half of the Southern Cotton Asso-
citation / beg to tender you our
appreciation and thanks for the
splendid work which you are do
ing in your State. From reports
Mississippi seems to be leading
the other Southern States in per-
fecting its machinery of organiza-
tion, and the enthusiasm of her
people in the movement inaugu-
rated at New Orleans is now be-
ing actively pressed by the South
ern Cotton Association

case had caused one more step in
