souTHE' COTTON GROWERS
WILL ASK FoR sEcRETARYs
REMOVAL. fl
SAY HE FOUGHT INQUIRY
Petition to be Sent to President viii
Charge lowan With Opposing An In
vestlsation Of the Cotton Leak
Wilson confers With President at
Oyster Bay.

Washington, w. G., July s1-The
southern Cotton Growers association
VIII make a formal demand on Presi.
dent Roosevelt that Secretary Wilson
be asked to resign. 1t will be urged
that Secretary Wilson'S influence has
been against the investigation of
charges relating to the bureau of
statlstlcs and that until he was com
PEELED to do otherwise he stood by
Holmes. Hyde and others.
1t Will be argued that to preserve
confidence in the department of agri-
culture that the whole department
must be overhauled. It is generally
believed here that the association will
be able to induce the President to de-
mand Mr.. Wilson's retirement.
Confers With President,
Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 31.-Secre-
tary Wilson of the department of agri-
culture is at Sycamore Hill. His visit
will enable him and the President to
discuss the situation in the department
as 1t relates to the investigation now
in progress. All rumors of the inten-
ton of Secretary Wilson to resign
from the cabinet may be put aside as
merely conjecturaI The secretary has
no present intention of leaving the cab
met and the President knows of no
reason why he should resign.
The President, it may be said, re-
poses implicit confidence in Secretary
Wilson and is thoroughly satisfied that
he will solve the difficulties now pre-
sented to the entire satisfaction of the
chief executive and Of the country.
1t is probable that Secretary Wilson
would have come to Oyster Bay before
this had 1t not been for the unsettled
condition in his department, which rem
dered it practically impossible for him
to leave Washington. He is pressing
every phase Of the investigations now
in progress and will develop every fact
which the country ought to know.
Rosen Visits Roosevelt.
Oyster Bay, July 81. President
Roosevelt today entertained at lunch
con, Baron Rosen, the Russian ambas.
sador to the United States. The visit
was principally for the purpose Of
making arrangements for the formal
call on the President Of M. Witte. the
peace envoy, who will arrive in few
days.
May Prosecute Dr.. Moore.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
was also at the luncheon as a guest
of the President to discuss the recent
developments in the cotton leak scan
dal and the exploitation of nitro-cult-
ure which induced the resignation of
DR.. George T. Moore. If the facts dis
closed warrant it,prosecutions against
the offenders will be instituted by the
attorney general.

Section 1923, Of Shannon's Code 1 1
Tennessee, provides that it ehall be a
mlsdemeanor punishable by fine of from
five to twenty-five dollars, for any per-
son to be found lettering around the
streets or around saloons and gambling
houses, with no apparent means OF
support and who will not apply them
selves to useful labor. A rigid enforce
ment of this law would help to solve the
labor problem; also our public roads
would be- improved. The people ought
simply to demand its enforcement.
Look at the horde of idle loakers that
may be seen around our streets almost
any time, who never strike HEX of
work, have no property and are, there
fore, of necessity, thieves, either by di-
rect stealing or through the wenches
with whom they maintain liasOn. Ar
