JUDGE TOWERY
Writes Another Letter to the TObaC.
co Growers.

To the Tobacco growers of Crittenden
County:
The readers of the Press will re-
member the article written by me not
long since. Pointing out to the to-
bacco growers of Crittondon County
the great opportunity to have their
present crop of tobacco handled and
sold by the Stemming District To-
bscco Association. | desire to say
that our manager Mr.. Elliott, of the
city of Henderson has closed the con-
tract with our friend DR.. X. l.. Moore,
of Marion, for the use of his factory
for the purpose of storing and pre-
preparing all of the tobacco for mar
ket which is pooled and will be pooled
in our county.
1t is plain to ne that the execu-
tive committee aud all officers of the
aforesaid Association have certainly
given Crittenden County tobacco
growers a great opportunity. Now
then We kindly ask you to pool your
crops at an early date and show your
brother farmers chat your stand with
them sNd against the Tobacco Trust.
There is but two sides to this ques-
tion and that is are you for the farm
ers or are you for the Trust? | am
Informed by our manager that most of
our last year crop which was pooled
has been disposed of at good prices,
far better than those who did not
pool. l said in my last article that
/ would not say that it was best to
pool or not, now | am prepared to
say that / know it is best to pool
and when you sign the contract stand
to it. Doubtless you have already
had Trust agents to come to see you
and tell you that tobacco is high.
We admit that it is high and will
be higher, but the next question is,
who made it higher. 1t certainly
was not the tobacco trusts that
brought the price up. For it was
was thoroughly demonstrated IN the
halls Of Congress that the American
Tobacco Trust brought the price of
tobacco down. That being true 1t
certainly is a mistaken idea that the
same combine would make the price
high. Therefore it is a plain propo.
sition that the Tobacco Associations
have made such progress that they
are controlling the marketing of their
tobacco. Again we aie told that the
shortage of the crop that makes the
price hlch-to such inquiries we
would say please examine the stats
teal part and you'll find thatthis is
not the case.
Therefore we are bound to admit
this Tobacco association has brought
pleasure and happiness to many

1t has never been our pleasure to

words. With his fautless, eloquent
words of logic, he told of the story
Of Joseph's life, explained the life

and accomplished girl, recited with
fine emphasis, "Oh Why should the

Sovereign Duncan, Of Robards,
