Southern Cotton Association.

In an interview at Boston. Mass,
Thursday night on the proposed pre-
liminary conference between cotton
growers and manufacturers in New
York, January "a, J. R. MacColl, pres
ldent Of the New England Manufac-
turers' Association, took exception to
remarks said to have been made by
President Jordan Of the Southern Cot
ton Association at Atlanta Wednes.
day. President MacColl said:
The remarks attributed to Presi-
dent Jordan Of the Southern Cotton
Association, in speech at Atlanta,
are misstatements CT fact, and I trust
he has been incorrectly reported by
the newspapers. He is stated to have
said: Now these spinners have to
come to us for conference with the
view of arriving at satisfactory price
for cotton
AT the Atlantic City meeting Of
our association, held in September,
Richard Gheatham, secretary OF the
Southern Cotton Association, said:
"'The policy of the Southern Cot
ton Association has been since its in
ception to cultivate friendship and
better trade relations and understand
ing with the manufacturers Of our
great staple crop. ..-...
"To that end, the association has
appointed a committee from among Its
most intelligent and competent mem
bers, to confer with you at such a
time as may be convenient to SIM
liar representative committee from
your body to take under consideration
such matters as vitality affect the In
terests of both. I feel that much last
ing good will result from such a con-
ference
GAS a result of this and other sug'
gestions a preliminary conference OF
delegates from manufacturing and
cotton growing associations have been
arranged for January "a IN Ne"
York.
"The purpose is, if deemed advisa-
BILE, to formulate plans for a joint
conference of cotton manufacturers
and growers to be held in April, at
which there will be present repre-
sentative from the international fed
Grafton Of Europe. Fixing the price
of cotton is, in my opinion, not like
" to receive much attention. This will
continue to be determined as 1t al
ways has been by the old economic
law of supply and demand, but apart
from this, there are many matters tnat
can well be discussed at such gath
ering, and with beneficial results to
all the interests represented

SIXTEEN ACRES TO PLOW
ls Pledge Of Georgia Farmers Made
at Annual Meeting Of State Cot
ton Association in Atlanta.

District organizers will be sent inte
each congressional district of the state
to more strongly organize the Geor-
gia division of the Southern Cotton
Association in every county Of Geor-
gia during 1906, and the work will be
pushed as it has not been before
since the association was organized.
This important step was determined
upon by the Georgia division, which
met in annual convention at the state
capitol in Atlanta "Wednesday.
Among other resolutions passed by
the convention was one prescribing a
pledge for the Georgia members that
they will not, during 1906, plant more
thar Is acres of cotton to the plow.
and that they will besides raise at
home a. full supply of provisions for
home consumption.
President NJ. L. Johnson and prac
tically all Of the old officers OF the
Georgia division were reelected to
serve during the new year.
Every speaker had something to
say about the prosperous conditions
prevalent in the state, and alluded
to the fact that there is more money
in the country now than there has
been since 1860.
This was particularly noticeable In
the strong address of President Jor'
dan, who also warned the association
against the danger of allowing poll
tics to enter it's deliberations, because
the history of other associations OF a
like character showed their wreck had
been due to this very fact.

House Subject Of Strong Resolution. B
Representative Sheppard Of Texas
introduced the following resolution in

currence which is the cause Of this
resolution was violation. Of every
sentiment that glorifies American
manhood and American chivalry. The,
brutal treatment Of this lady, who
was but acting within her rights
seems to me to be outrageous and IN:
defensible. The American congress
ought not to permit the matter to,
rest without the most thorough and
searching investigation. It involves
the most sacred element Of American
life, the respect and difference which
every true American citizen accords,
the American woman, and especially
the American mother. When the pres
ident of the United States. with all
the glamor of his great Office, steps,
into the presence Of an American;
mother, he is in the presence OF nus.
superior. This action Of his subordt.
mates should certainly be inveshgat-
ed" The resolution was referred to-

FEARS AN ENHANCEMENT
Resolution Calls for ReaSons That Led
to Appointment Ct Delegates to
the Conference and Powers
,.- Conferred.

A Washington special says: Criti.
cisrl of the presidents foreign poll
.-es took a new turn Monday when
Senator Bacon introduced a resoiu-
ton designed to bring out all the
facts concerning the action Of the
executive in providing fer this gov
ernments participation in the con-
ference Of European powers over Mo-
rocco.
Coming as it did on the heels Of
Senator Tillman's> effort to throw the
light of investigation upon Santo Do
mingo; Of Senator Raynor's fiery
excoriation of the Roosevelt interpre
tation of the Monroe doctrine, this Mo-
rocco resolution caused administra-
ton senators so much discomfort that
Senator Lodge served notice upon the
senate that he would hereafter insist
that all discussions of questions bear
ing upon foreign relations be discuss
ed only behind closed doors. There are
evidences of strong protest, net con-
fined within democratic lines, against
the presidents action in permitting
this government to take hand in
the Algeciras conference.
Republican senators who have ex-
cused, the presidents policy toward
Santo Domingo on the ground that
the Monroe doctrine places upon the
government the duty of acting as po-
licenlan with this hemisphere seem
to think that representation at the
Morocco conference is an altogether
needless and unwarranted, if not dan
gerous injection of this government
into the quarrels of Europe.
Senator Bacon recites in the pre-
amble Of his resolution that the sit
uation in Morocco and in Europe fore
shadows a war and recalls the fact
that our relations with Morocco are
purely commercial. The powers In
terested in the political affairs of Mo-
rocco, he says, are plainly preparing
for war.

to the United States to send delegates
to the conference in Spain together

vitation are taken by Senator Bacon
to be Of such important nature IN
view Of the pending war cloud over
Morocco that the senate should be
