the worlds Well organized, thanks
to the leadership Of a. j. Mckfn-
non. We are here to try to benefit
ourselves. If you want 70 organize
your county, put a man in the field
and pay him for it. You should also
have q business agent who Would go
from house TO house and show the
farmers how organization pays them.
Mr.. w. G. Heath. OF Union: Farm
ers, merchants, bankers and others
are agreed ana are working together.
important to nave a president who can
give much Of his time and be in bust
ness-like touch with all the counties.
He belongs to the Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION, which had not succeeded as
it should. because they wouldn't put
up the money. He told Of a farmer
who sold his cotton at 9 II cents be-
cause he had no faith in the Asso-
citation and 0 is mad. such farm
ers oppose the organization. We are
ali dependent on cotton and let US
take in farmers. manufacturers, bank
erS and all who are interested in the
prosperity OF the South. This QeclaI-
alton was applauded.
