Cotton Warehouse or the Poorhouse-
Which Do You Prefer?

For many years cotton producers
have been producing money making
cotton crops, but in placing the cot
ton upon the market all others in the
cotton business have become rich
while the southern cotton producers,
as rule, have remained poor.
There is but the one course for this,
and here it is: Most any common
clod-hopper can produce a good crop
Of cotton, but it takes different kind
of work to place this cotton on the
market so as to retain the profits in
the hands of the producers, where it
justly belongs.
Most any common cotton farmer
can, single-handed, independently and
alone produce profitable crop Of
cotton, but it takes the combined eff
forts of many thousand cotton pro-
ducers to keep the old crowd of cot
ton spectators from reaping all the
profits.
These spectators have applied ii
code of business rules and methods or
system in handling your cotton crops
that producers have failed to do for
themselves. These men have supplied
the cotton warehouses and the busi-
ness organizations for the purpose of
distributing your cotton among cot
ton manufacturer and have, as might
be expected, reaped their profits in
money while the producers Of cotton
have stood aloof from concert of ac-
tion and took their profits out IN
grumbling and eursirs the specula-
tors.
The Remedy. i
There is but one remedy FOR this
evil, and that is the cotton producers
must supply the facilities for hand.
ling their own crops, until the cotton
is placed into the hands of consumers
at a reasonable profit to the produc-
ers. or the cotton farmer will remain
in his present hazardous position.
Cotton farmers, You must organize
and put your cotton in bulk, and then
place your best men i'll charge Of your
business or the speculator will con-
tinue to do this thing for you! You
cotton growers must build your own
warehouses to protect your business
or the same old crowd will continue
to do this for you, and continue to
levy tariff for this job to suit their
idea about this work and not to suit
your idea!
Farmers, prepare for war in time
of peace. Several warehouses are now
on the way, not yet completed.
Some farmers claim that they ap-
prove of the warehouse plans, but
they can't raise the money for the
stock; well, now, deny this. In
many cases this is not true. We know
good and well that if some would try,
they could get. up this warehouse
stock just as we'll as they get up other
things that are not so important.
Finally, we wish to say to all ye
calamity howlers and fault-finders
that you cannot build warehouses
with your tongues, it takes the cash
And another thing, too, that if you
will not try to help yourselves when
the way is open for you to do it, do

GoURDAIN DECIDES TO QUIT.
Dissuaded by Justice White From At
tempt to Go to Jail.

A dispatch from Narragansett Pier. r. l.,
last night says: After an interview with
Justice White OF the Supreme Court, this
evening. Louis A. Gourdain, the former al
legged lottery agent, who is trying to be re-
admitted to the Joliet. Ill, penitentiary,
from which he was recently released by a
pardon decided that his effort to get his pc
tition fled with the Supreme Court of the
United States was useless, and he left Mar
ragansett Pier announcing his intention Of
returning to New York by the Fall River
boat tonight.
Gourdain requested Justice White to or
der the clerk of the Supreme Court to ac-
cept his petition for readmissfon to the
penitentiary, but the justice informed him
that the clerk was perfectly right in refus-
ing to receive the petition without a special
order of the court. Gourdain, after an
hours chat with the justice, expressed him.
self as perfectly satisfied with the lat
ter's explanation of the obstacles in the
way of the presentation of the petition.
Justice White Is understood to have sug-
gested to Gourdain that should he desire
further light on the subject, he might call
on Justice McKenna, who is a guest at a
hotel here. but Gourdain said he did not
consider an interview with Justice McKen-
ma necessary as he was fully convinced
from Justice Whites statement that the
petition could not be received by the clerk
of the court.
The interview between Justice White and
his visitor was pleasant one, as Justice
White was formerly acquainted with Gour-
dain's father. and both came from La
Fourche parish, Louisiana.

suspect that they have been rather proud

II will be made dead certainty that the
propositions intended TO benefit only a

THE absurdity and the impossibiiity or
this proposed course of action are patent

than the whole; ultimately It does not de-
serve consideration in comparison with the

wrong as we'll political impossibility Is
involved in supposing that We shall toler-

that a government. within a government
