MOVEMENTS FOR
LOOSE FLOOR.


places. Yesterday was another big
day in the movement of the weed
and many thousands of pounds were
sold by J. p. Thompson & Co. and
perhaps as much bought privately.
Thompson & Co.'s sales so far
amount to about 100000 pounds.
Their capacity is limited and to off
set the lack of room they are now
selling the tobacco on trucks, that
meet the wagons outside, are rolled
in, put in line, the tobacco sold and
rolled onto transfer wagons. and de-
livered with but one handling. Mr..
Thompson expects from now on to
sell from $4,000 to 100000 pounds
daily.
Mr.. E. R. Conway, of the Imperial
Tobacco Co., attended the sales
Tuesday. His company is now buy
ing heavily from the loose floor, from
independent wagons and from the
Association where the right types
can be found and put Hp to suit. AS
soon as a sufficient supply is on hand
the big factory will start up to the
great benefit of the hands, who are
greatly in need Of labor to support
themselves during the winter.
It is estimated that the receipts
this week will amount to 100000
pounds, which represents S35, 900 to
$4,000. The total receipts of
non-Association tobacco have prob
ably reached l ,COO,OOO and it is still
coming from Todd, Muhlenberg,
Hopkins. Caldwell, Trigg, Logan and
Montgomery counties.
Stampede Yesterday.
The movement of tobacco from
the northern counties yesterday
amounted to a stampede. At noon
30 loaded wagons were lined up at
West & Co.'s receiving house, 8 at
the Imperial Tobacco's factory and
II at the loose salesroom, waiting
their turn. Many samples were ex-
hibited for the sale of crops still un-
delivered. Two farmers from Ten
nessee had samples representing
nearly 100000 pounds.
Many wagons were driven by
men armed with shotguns and old
time rifles. who said they had come
40 miles. Some of the wagons were
half filled with low grade tobacco, a
mere handful, while others were

It seems almost incredible that
General Manager Ewing, Of the
Planters Association. cannot see the
drift of things in the organization Of
which he is the all powerful head.
His refusal to sell the tobacco con-
trolled by the Association without
putting it through the expensive
process that has rendered much Of
it unstable in the past, is arousing
the same spirit of unrest that led
men to crime a year ago. If he could
see the eagerness with which the
members are seeking to take advan-
tage of his packing concession,
if he could hear the murmurs of dis
content each time he refuses to let
county committees sell in the way
that experience has taught them is
best, if he could know of the disap-
pointment that follows the tardy
sale of the damaged goods on his
bargain counter, if he could under
stand that his Encouragement has
caused tobacco to be sold or left I'M
sold after holding it fifteen months
at loss of from SO to SIS hundred,
he would listen for once to the adj
vice of some of his members wiser
than he, whose fingers are upon the
pulse of the poor farmer who does
not draw a princely salary that
would pay for a dozen such little
farms as he lives upon.
The people realize, the prizers re-
alize, the county committees realize,
the individual members realize, ev-
erybody excepting Mr.. Ewing re-
allies that a crisis is approaching in
the affairs of the Association and
that it cannot be maintained without
radical and prompt change in its
methods Of selling tobacco. The
people do not want to store their to-
bacco for sale in the far future on a
glutted market, with the planting
season for another bumper crop only
ninety days oft and their debts un-
paid. Many of the members, includ-
ing some who have ridden at night,
are demanding that Mr.. Ewing put
the 1908 crop upon the market loose.
while there is market and if need
be let the 1907 crop be charged up
to experience.
Will Mr. Ewing rise to the emer-
gency, or will he wait to be crushed
under the wheels Of his own jugger-
naut? A loose floor salesroom in
each of the leading cities of the
Black Patch, opened for Association
tobacco, will save the Association
and we doubt If anything else will
save it. If Mr.. Ewing will not lead
the way his people want to go, he
will show that wisdom is not one of
his elements of leadership.
