A friend of Ex-Governor Odell
of New York comes forward and
states that Mr.. Roosevelt and
Postmaster Cortelyou were pres
ent when an agreement was made
to raise funds to carry on the
republican campaign in 1904 by
approaching a number OF the
great corporations, including the
life insurance companies. The
investigation which has been 60
ing on has cotton very close to
many of the most prominent
people of the east but it was never
suspected that it would turn up
anything that would in any Way
involve the president.

Memphis had three bank fail
ures last week, the result OF

mess. Good times always brings
about an over-confidence in the
financial world, especially among
the more adventurous, and as a
result failures follow. With the
Memphis banks their suspension
was brought about by lending
too great a per cent of their
holdings. All depositors will be
paid in full.

Every section is held in the
warm embrace of it's open ano
wide spread arms. Every de.
partment Of agriculture, be it Of
any name whatever, receives
like attention.
The rich and the poor stand at
the same rack, and are feed at
the same bin in this great
brotherhood Of farmers, their
wives and daughters.
While it is distinctly a fc-aa-S
Union and for farmers, Sc for
the man who does honest toll, 10
matter where he stands or how
he labors, whether in the mines
or in the forest, whethe.. N the
smoky shops or behind the coun-
ter, whether at the desk or in
the forum, whether in the min
istry, spiritually, Intellectually
or physically to the wants Of
man, stands approved and we
bid him Gods speed in his avoca-
ton.
The object of the Union is to
build up and protect the interest
of the wealth producing masses,
especially the farmers. Not the
cotton, wheat, or sugar grower;
or the stock feeder alone, but
any one that gets his liveli hood
by tilling the soil. The realiza-
ton of it's principles, and the en-
joyment of it's blessings, means
a better and higher civilization,
a purer religion, a niger code of
morals, fewer criminals, and less
use for the jails and gallows.
The order has had a marvellous
growth since it's inception; it has
just completed it's third year of
public existence, it's second year
outside the state of Texas. 1t
now has 500, 900 paying members
and is rapidly moving into I'M
organized territories. The organ
izers are daily receiving calls
to come over and help US"
The order is strictly one of
business, and meets the approha-
ton of all business men who
contend that it is a good thing
and right and advise farmers to
ioin and Stay with it.
The Uuion took the lead and
conceived the plan and initiated
work to raise the price of cotton
from 6 cents to II cents, notwith-
standing Mr.. Jordan and the
cotton growers association claim
all the honor. We have a cor
respondance reserved which
shows the Union tosbe in the lead
in that matter.
Every farmer should join it. 1t
does not destroy or detract from
his Independence or business
liberties and right. But rather
cultivates a cooperative interde-
tendance upon other farmers.
1t discourages individuality in
competing with combinations
and capital, and also discourag,es,
competition against your own
interest. The most prominent
feature is that there is no place
in it for the selfish man. One
of the grand features of the
convention was that of setting
on the graft and circus
element, and the broad guaged
Pyle was chosen president of the
body; the liberal mind
ed Gresham as the organizer,
and the high toned McCullar as
secretary. 1t will make a grand
success of the Union through
out this, the greatest nation on
earth. "The land of the fire. ,
and the home of the brave"

Report Of Delegate to the Conyen.
ton Of the Farmers Educa-
tionaI and Cooperative
Union.

The National Body Farmers
Educational Cooperation Union
of America was called to order
and was organized at Texakana,
Tex, by President G. G. Calvan,
of the Texas State Union, on Dec.
the 5, 1905, and was composed of
more than three hundred dele
gates representing thirteen states
from Virginia to Texas. Reach
ing from the Potomac down the
Ohio river, cross the Mississippi
river taking in Missouri and
Kansas, and extending to the
Gulf south.
In all the many conventions
which l have hadthe pleasure of
attending | have never seen a
more intelligent deliberation,
determined. harmonious set of
men, nor yet have | ever seen
a broader minded set. Not a
man could be found there who
was actuated by personal motives
or sectional interest, and not one
present who wished to turn down
any honest industry. But all
earnestly endeavoring to solve
the great problem, viz: "The
Betterment Of the American Far
mers".
No matter what branch Of ag-
riculture he may have chosen
nor yet in what section he may
have located, all were earnestly
engaged in searching out the
principles upon which the Union
is Founded to-wit: Justice,
Equity and the Golden Rule"
because an honest application of
such principles cannot harm any
man, and at the same time the
whole.structure Of human govern
ment will be built up gradually
and together will not leave any
place for the grafton and corner
ing extortioner to grow immense
ly rich in a day upon another
mans absolute necessity.
The most noted feathers of
this great assembly was that the
representation was of the vari-
Gus political casts. The Demo-
crat and the Republican, the
Populite, Prohibitionist, and the
Socialist. All sat side by side
and peaceably and quietly dis
cussed the various issues and
honorably submitted to the ma
jority rule, and not a word of
party politics was uttered. So
in regard to religious belief, andI,
a deep dyed Confederate veteran,
sat beside a pensioned Federal
veteran. Although | bore the
marks Of the bullet shot from
his gun and l possibly may be
the cause of his pension, yet we
never joined issues on the late
unpleasantness but deliberated
upon the problems. So with the
young man full of life and energy
and modern culture, was founed
sitting at the feet of old Cana
her, ripe with the age of ex-
perience and ready to be plucked
and taken home, but wanting to
leave a better inheritance for the
youngster at his feet. All We'd

REIMBURSEMENT of the business
methods, so as to make a more
equal distribution Of the wealth
that comes from the manipulation
of our products.
The foundation of the Union
is broad. There is in reality no
north, no south, no east, no west.
