President Hightower writes as fol

This is not pledge, but is only a
statement Of cotton on hand which
will be held for while. All cotton
pledged to the National Cotton Com
mittee some time ago, is released, the
enclosed report taking the place Of all
former documents"
we are now informed that these
blanks are being filled and sent in
by the hundred, and if there is system
used by the office Of this committee,
they will be enabled at any time to
tell just how much union cotton and
non-unien cotton is held by the diff
ferent states at glance. In this
we trust that business methods and
system will be used and carried out by
the union. And we hope that the
secretary in charge will be able to get
competent assistants and perIec'
system of books and blanks to do this
work, making it clearly a business deal
for the interest Of the Farmers Union
and the entire south. 1T MUST BE
DONE.
New Orleans is alive to the neces
sity Of securing the bulk Of the cottol
business by doing everything possible
in warehouse accommodations, wharf
age and like facilities, and shows
proper spirit in doing everything pos
sible to secure the business.
Should smaller towns act with thu
| same motives in endeavoring to secure
local warehouses, and help max
them self-sustaining they would Sc
cure their shares Of business and th

4. Visit the country banks and as
sist in bringing them closer to the
farmer. Finding those that are domi-
mated by merchants who indirectly
through the banks, Of which they are
officers or directors, refuse farmers
loans on cotton as collateral in order
to force the sale Of the staple and
thus put what they call free money
in the community in order that their
stocks Of goods may be sold.
5. Aiding in financing distressed
cotton. Finding private loans for
farmers dependent upon some man

Last week we announced formally
our opposition to the Business
Agency as now operated. We have
no use for the ordinary cat who calls
himself critic and never attempts
to point better way out Of bad po-
sition. Our objection, let it be dis
tinctly understood, is not political and
has no bearing whatever in relation
to any particular person.
President Hightower, and the execu.
tive board deserve no censure not
the least for conditions. The state
union adopted a constitution and elect
ed a Business Agent" and said Snow
it is up to you and you make It go;
if you don't we will blame you" Presi-
dent Hightower and his board are fine
men and they have done the best
they could under the circumstances.
but they are not magicians or miracle
workers and they cannot conduct a
general store "a regular supply bust
ness without capital and make it
succeed in competition with men Of
millions with their business in the
hands Of experts. The man who
blames these men are in error.
The Farmers Union can use a
~Business Agent and with the fol
loving duties good, strong, diplo
matte mansof integrity and ability can
be Of incalculable service to the farm
ers Of our state If we could outline
his work we would say:
1. The Business Agent would
conduct central office where inforrna
ton as to prices and markets woulC
be given out from time to time ane
where the needs Of the farmers woul6
be catalogued and given attention.
3. The Business Agent" having
posted himself as to the reasonable
prices which should be charged for al
kinds Of goods would visit every com
munity where merchants are charging
excessive prices and find out the trou
| Bile. He could then diplomaticall.
urge the merchant to be fairer in BIZ
dealings and If the merchant wonl'
not listen to reason then publish hi
name to union members as on
against the interests Of the farmer
and begin active work in the CON
munity to divert the trade to CON
petitor near by, and If there is n
competitor. ind one.
ii 8. Investigate among the farmer
and find all money sharks who pre-
upon the ignorant or uninformed an
aid the farmer In securing loans at
more reasonable rate and assist !
prosecuting al users.

pense of the farmers, and It may have
been taken that we were not in favor
of the work that could be done by

ventions, who now have charge Of the
work. Had the money which was
spent by the membership and bust
ness men In attending these conven-
tions been saved and put In the hands

pointed by the president Of both dele
cations, and who could have been ap-
pointed as well from their home Of

We now have by a special committee

charge the management of the work
Of the National Cotton Committee.
However as we have already spent
the money at New Orleans and Mem

working, it is hoped that the mem

by non-union farmers.
