INTRODUCED BY j. M. HARVEY.
Ladies and Fellowcitizens:
/ am proud to have the honor and
pleasure of introducing to you today,
the Hon. Thomas Haynie, who will adj
dress you upon this occasion. Brother
Haynie has been identified with the
Farmers Union from its incipency in
the state Of MISSISSIPPI. He has dis
tinguished himself as journalist, he is
bold and fearless writer and an able
debator. AS editor of the Union-Ad-
yocate he is guarding your interest
day and night against the assaults of
your financial enemies. Why have
those good people left their homes and
assembled themselves together here
today. This is the busy season of the
year and the weather is beautiful, it
is because they are not receiving a
just share of the profits of their labor,
and because these conditions drive
our wives and daughters from their
homes into the fields to help their
fathers, husbands, and brothers make
just an ordinary living.
Brethren, the present system is
wrong, and ought to be abolished. The
God Of heaven never intended that the
fair daughters of our land should be

DO YOU THINK THE PRESENT
PRICE OF COTTON TOO LOVE-
Important circuIer Issued by NeiII
Brothers Says That the Cotton Mar
ket is in Disturbed Condition.; De-
crease of $500, 900 Bales.

In a circular issued today, Neill
Brothers adhere to their estimate of
11,600,00O bales of cotton, and observe
in view of the prospect of supply from
Egypt and India, that it ould prob
ably be no great exaggeration to say
that the prospective decrease in the
supply for Europe and America of all
supply sorts of cotton, as compared
with last season, is about 3,500,000
bales, which is three or four times
as great as the probable bearish esti-
mate of the probable reduction in con-
sumption"
During the past few days." they
point out, "the continental buying of
new crop features at Liverpool while
trade is decidedly dull at present, is
taken as evidence that some continent
al spinners are already able to sell
their yarns beyond the present season.
''Their taking of American cotton
during the past four weeks even ex-
: ceed by $4,000 bales the corresponding
figures of last year, which were great
er than any previous year.
The circular disagrees with the as
sumption that the actual consumption
in America has been reduced to any
thing like the same extent as the TAX
ings.
Before long," it is added, ''it may
become apparent that, owing to heI
financial straits, America has been
letting an undue proportion of the
crop go for export, so that the tina
struggle may be ultimately between
the southern holders and the Ameri
can mills.
Reduction in the States.
"It is worth bearing in mind tina
the stocks at the United States ports
other than those at the great specula
tive centres, New York and New Or
leans are now only 444, goo bales
against $4,000 last year; while at tn
counted interior towns they are onl,
473,O0O bales, against 461,O0O last yea
and $4,000 in 1906"
They consider that the stocks q
the mills which started on Septembe
1st at 329, 1000 above, are now 325,OO
below last year. The Continents
mills alone are keeping up Will
Great Britain is getting very barr
considering the great number Of ne
mills; and the northern United State
mills stocks are getting to dangerou
" low figures.

THEATRICAL
COMMENTS


theatre rules in all the Cincinnati
theatres that should appeal to
the theatre going public every
where, and that is that people up
on entering the theatre after the
rise of the curtain will not be
seated until the fall of said cur
tain. "A concerted movement by
the managers of all theatres would
have the desired effect.
In a demand for a general re-
form it is but natural that the
stars should come in for II round
of censure. 1t is the stars of the
travelling companies, who as II rile
prevent the going up of the
curtain at the advertised hour.
Mrs. Patrick Campbell, the
noted actress, is having her
troubles. AT Cumberland, Md,
recently, she refused to go on and
put on her understudy, and there
by disappointing a large and
fashionable audience, and later
she made a complete failure in
her "Electa," and wound up by
having a row with all the news
paper men In New York, and they
in turn have made her stay any
thing but bed of roses.
1t seems as thongh Miss Dorothy
Russell is trying for second place
In the matrimonial market against
her mother, Lillian Russell. She
was married but few years and
is now divorced and married again
to Acha Mura, wealthy import
er of Japanese ware.
Nat Goodwin produced another
failure several weeks ago in New
York. The name of his play was
"The Easterner," written by Geo.
Broadhurst.
The dramatic, editor of this
paper is just in receipt of a letter
from Delmas Sherrard, who is fast
making name for himself in the
theatrical world. Mr.. Sherrard
takes exceptions to some remarks
made in our dramatic Columns in a
recent issue, wherein we stated
that the company he was with,
"My Dixie Girl" was compelled to
close owing to their financial con-
dition, and that Mr.. Roy Harper
had returned TO Pittsburg. Also
Mr.. Sherrard was resting in Lo
gan. 1t seems that our informant
was incorrect, and we gladly
correct same. Mr.. Harper is
working In vaudeville, doing eight
turns day in good circuit, and
Mr.. Sherrard is with Mr.. f. W.
Grothers, (late of Donnelly IL Hat
field Minstrels, doing vaudeville
stunt ON the Gus Sun circuit, and
has some very fattering press
notices. Del is an actor out and
out and his success is assured.
We wish HIM all the good luck in
the world.
Miss Bertha Galland the we'll
known and popular actress is to
tour Ohio shortly in new play.
Miss Galland will be remembered
by the many Logan people as the
star in Dorothy Vernon" of
GLADDEN. Hail."
John Drew has quit the stage
for rest in the gold fields of
| Nevada.
Geo M. Cohan, next production
will be called ga Yankee Prince, "
and in it he will play the leading
role. The piece opens in Philadel-
phia early in April.
Roger Bros. in their new piece
called "In Panama" is their
greatest hit. This popular com
pany will be an early attraction in
Columbus.
Ezra Kendall is making good in
"rhe Land of Dollars"
Wilton Lackage, a powerful
and impressive actor of character
roles, is staring this season in
"The Bondman" by Hal Caine.
! The play has caught on in Chi
cago, and the press say that he
made the greatest hit of his whole
career.

DEATH OF WILLIAM KITCHEN.
We are sorry to relate the death
of William Kitchen of our village,
we'll known citizen of Benton TIP.
Such is a fact that in the midst of
life we are in death. When we
think we are living we are dying.
We look out in the future and lay
plans and hope that we will live
to see those plans put into eXecu-
tion; but how often our plans are
delayed by the grim monster death
who enters our lovely homes and
sewers the connection that holds
our families together, and takes
away loved one that our bosom
holds dear. When death enters
there is no defense. His time
there is none can tell. He with his
sickle keen will reap the bearded
grain at breath, and the beauti-
full flowers that grow between. 1t
is solemn thought for US when
we think of falling into the hands
of God who can not look upon
in with the least degree of
favor.
AS this life leaves us so judg-
ment will find us. Then it is
solemn for us to think that this
feeble body must die, this well
sought frame decay, these active
limbs of ours to lay molderlng in
the clay. We often think of that
great day when we shall be contem-
poraries and make our appearance
together, 1t will be happy
thought for us to think that il we
are ready when the summons come
for us, that we can meet our Lord
with JOY and not with grief, that
we will be permitted TO range the
fields of light and liberty through
out the boundless years of eternity.
Then we are willing to bow in
humble submission to the language
of good old Job "the Lord giyeth
and the Lord taketh away, and
blessed be the name of the Lord. +"
The thought that should cause
reflection on every mind, should be
TO heed the injunction of the scrip
lures, "Be ye also ready for in
such an hour as yon think not the
