ing down, and thereby get into
the hands of the very people
whom the farmer has organized
to protect himself against, then
it will be that you will hear, in
our opinion, that the strike is all
off. Activity in business all
along the line and the price of
cotton will climb up as the mer-
curry in the tube, from the hot
suns blast, while the American
farmer could have, if he would,
a better price for it. Then it
will be that he can fully realize
how important the strike was to
the man who wanted to make
profits on his labor.
Brethren, in our opinion this
is only another method to take
from agriculture the profits of a
years toll, while the hungry and
naked children who produce it
are trying to make it through the
winter, preparatory to making
another crop. They will have
the dry consolation of reading of
the profits going to another than
the man behind the pillow.
We do hope that our farmers
throughout the state will think
soberly over this matter. You
have warehouses, and in the
name of all that is decent,
don't rush your cotton on the
market under the present condi-
tons unless you are compelled
to, but store it and stop the
wholesale destruction of prices;
and if there is any reality of
what is being said about the eff
feet of the strike on the cotton
market, to hold your cotton and
not sell, will be one of the best
means, in our opinion, to burst
the strike. Therefore, we feel
disposed to advise our folks in
this matter, and demonstrate
with them against the wholesale
marketing of cotton under the
present conditions, for the reason
that the organization is strong
enough to hold at least so per
cent of this cotton crop. aud this
will evidently be of greater value
to the American farmer than any,
thing that can be done. Don't
sell 1t noe, unless it is a case of
compulsion.

observation-disclosures is a
relative term and is the autonym
of instinct. 1t distinguishes man
from the brute and signifies
knowledge obtained through
effort.
The term education is defined
by many in as many different
ways. The common meaning
of the term refers to knowledge
obtained from books under the
tutorage of teacher, as in
a school. 1t may also refer to
general development of man,
physical, spiritual or intellectual,
i. e., drawing out the various fac
ulties, increasing the efficiency
and power of the individual along
any given line.
Education is power" is an
aphorism no less trite than true;
this power may be welded for
veal or woe. If properly direct
ed by a symmetrical development
of all the better emotions and
elements of our nature, it will be
of incalculable benefit, not only
to the possessor, but to humanity
in general. Hence, the impor-
lance of education is apparent
and too much stress cannot be
placed thereon.
can intelligent and virtuous
people can never be enslaved. y
No wonder then that the Ameri-
can people are SO jealous of their
rights and privileges to obtain
an education. So great is the
importance attached to it by our
people that it is incorporated as
one of the bedrock principles of
our civic government, both state
and national. And liberal pro-
visions are made to foster same
at public expense.
Education, too, is one of the
basic principles upon which the
church is founded. And, IN fact,
it underlies all human institu-
tons, civil, ecclesiastical, frater-
nal or otherwise, and the eff
cheney and success of any insti-
tuition is in exact proportion to
the education of its constituents.
The Farmers Union, as we'll as
all others, hence the Importance
of the educational feature of our
organization.
Now, in treating this subject,
we purpose to use the term edu-
cation in its broadcast sense, re-
ferring to knowledge gained from
any source, through any means
whatsoever, that looks to the
successful accomplishment of the
purpose OF the Farmers Union,
that of lettering the condition of

COTTON QUESTION IN ARKANSAS.

Arkansas, and we suppose, of
other states are in somewhat of
guessing attitude on the cotton
question. The rapid decline of
the cotton market and the con-
tinued agitation of the European
strike, and the Indifference on
the part of American cotton buy
ers, together with the fact that
the members Of the Union are
not in possession of information
relative to what is expected of
them through the new process of
handling cotton through our
warehouses, has gotten the Farm
ers Union men, especially In
Arkansas, in a guessing attitude.
But we do not want anyone to be-
come alarmed when we say that
such a condition is causing the
marketing of cotton at the p es-
ent prices at very rapid rate by
the farmer, both Union and non
Union; and for this reason we
feel that an article of advice to
our people will not be out of
place, and at the same time may
cause some to think and not act
or sell their cotton under the
present conditions if it can pos
sibly be avoided.
To any well-posted man who
has stopped to think, he can
readily see that there is univer-
sal tendency to make the grow
ers of cotton believe that the
strike of the English mill opera
tors is the real cause for the de-
preston in price, and that the
strike will likely continue for an
indefinite period and that this
will cause a much lower market
for cotton than it is at present
obtainable. Hence the advance
on all sides and the fear of such
conditions existing as is thus held
out to the world, has caused an
unsettled condition or determina
ton on the part of the producers,
and each in turn is trying to, it
appears, get to the market before
strike conditions get any worse.
We do not believe that with
the present crop, which cannot
be in our opinion more than
eleven and a half million bales,
that the present prices will pre-
vail throughout the market if
the people would only stop the
daily marketing and hold their
cotton in the warehouses for at
least sixty days. We cannot help
believing that there are combi-
nations formed for the purpose of
weakening the hold of the Farm
ers Union, and, if possible, de-
stroy it by disheartening the
membership with the forlorn
threat of the strike in England
running the market throughout
the season. We see it stated in
the latest dispatches that the
strike is not likely to be settled
before the first of the year.
These dispatches are kept be-
fore the eyes of the people for a
purpose, III our estimation, and
they are serving purpose that
is very detrimental to the pro-
Queer unless immediate action is
taken on the part of our folks.
If this scare can be effectively
worked and the bulk of Ameri-
can cotton thrown on the market
for the fear that the price is 60
