DIFFICULTY IN HOLDING CROP

Now is the time of year when
the Southern cotton farmers are
generously loaded down with ad-
vice, some good some bad and some
neither. The Atlanta Constitu
ton thinks it is imperative for the
farmers to hold back the bulk of
the crop and market it gradually,
according to the demands of the
market. In this way, it contends,
the crafty bears will be outwitted
and millions of money will get into
the producers pockets which other
wise the bears will absorb.
With cotton area extending
over nearly 100000 square miles,
there is bound to be a variety of
conditions which vitality affect the
ability of the producers to accept
this advice, and there need be no
disappointment if thousands can
not do so.
1t must be granted that if all
the producers could adopt the
plan suggested by the Constitution,
the aggregate sum of Southern
cotton money would be much
greater.
But since tens of thousands will
be compelled to part with their
cotton the moment they can get it
to market no doubt othe earlier
months of the cotton season will
be marked by rushing Of the
crop to market as of old.
We still have the old credit sys-
tenn in the South. The farmer owes
the merchant, the merchant owes
the local banker, the local banker
owes somebody else, and when
cotton begins to move every credi-
tor clamors for his money and
will not be satisfied until he
gets it.
"Thus it is that careful
marketing is extremely difficult
for many producers.
Not until an adequate ware
house system can be established
throughout the cotton region can
cotton be held for systematic
marketing. Some progress is be
ing made toward the establish
ment of a warehouse system, but
much remains to be done yet. So
the farmers will have to do the
very best they can under the cir
cumstances.
EVIDENCE OF THE GIG STICK.

EVIDENCE OF THE GIG STICK.

While the recent state conven-
ton is now thing of the past, the
echoes therefrom still reyerberate
throughout the state and affords
the people food for reflection. In
the opinion ofan Albanian present,
as expressed in special news dis
patch to the Savannah News, Hoke
Smith totes 'Fbig stick" and is
going to WELD it.
"That Mr.. Smith proposes to
dominate was apparent from the
manner in which the convention
conformed closely to his ideas on
every subject that was touched
upon.
Gin no instance was this more
apparent than when Boykin
Wright of Augusta was strongly
opposed by delegates from his own
district for executive committee
man. Mr.. Smith, it is said, prac-
tically told the Tenth district del
egates who opposed Mr.. Wright
that it made no difference what
theyss thought or wanted, as Mr..
Wright should go on the new Ex-
ecutive Committee.
"He will be placed there as one
of the eleven members to be chosen
from the state Large and ap-
pointed by the chairman.
Mr.. Smiths hand was seen in
other matters with which the con-
vention had to deal. Mr.. Berner of
Monroe, Mr.. Smiths law partner,
was the frequent mouthpiece, pre-
senting many suggestions and
resolutions. In his speech accept
ing the nomination, Mr.. Smith
evidently wants a clear field for
the enactment of all the laws he
has suggested, and if there is any
way to get it he proposes to do it.
"All of whichIis leading the poll
ticians of the state to ask if Mr..
Smith, after strongly denouncing
what he termed "ring rule" is
not mapping out the biggest,
strongest and most extensive ring
ever known in the history of state
politics."

His Charges Are Denied by the Woman

Crazy or Black

When arrested last night for stealing
a gold watch and some clothing from
Miss Florence Pernot of 116 South Hope
street, j. d. Richardson, a printer,
claimed that he had done so with the
sole purpose of trying to rid himself of
the woman's attentions.
II have been trying for long time to
shake the woman" said Richardson,
"bUt have been unable to free myself
of her. Finally she took my clothes in
AN effort to keep me from leaving heH.
1t was because of this, partly, that /
took her clothes and her watch, for |
intended to return her things to her
when she had given me my belongings" ="
In his attempt to prove that he had
taken the Woman's property simply to
rid himself of her and to regain his own
things. Richardson gave the inference
that his relations with Miss Pernot had
been other than respectable. Miss Per-
not Indignantly denied such AN impli-
cation yesterday, and said that Rich
ardson had never been more to her than
mere acquaintance, and that she con-
sidered him either crazy or a black
mailer.
