TO THE HONORABLE SONS OF REST

For the good of the order, /
will say that l congratulate you
on having produced nothing this
year that the capitalistic class
can make anything out of. We
have the cotton raisers skinned.
The Sons Of Rest ard the boil
weevils have taken control Of the
cotton crops. We have fooled
with the diversified farmer long
enough. A class of people who
have no more sense than to feed
their wives and children into a
fiery furnace, like June and July,
to raise cotton only to be hauled
to market and dumped regard
less of cost or price, are going
to be taught a lesson of humanity.
God has chosen the week vessels
of this world to confound the
mighty, so look out for the boil
weevil. The boil weevil is no
new thing. There have been
boil weevils ever since the Civil
war. The two-legged boil weevil
commences work on the crop the
first day in January, the insect
kind in the summer. The two
legged kind eats the crop before
it is made, the insect after it is
made. Then, we ask our mer-
chant where our part comes in.

them all beaten.
The great electrical wizard goes

capitalists system. | am told
that the men who command
hundreds of millions are going
to permit the small retailers to
remain in business many years.
1t is absurd. The small mer-
chant is now getting the same
dose that the old time shoemaker
and wagon maker got. The days
of the retail merchant is number
ed. One great store owned by
the men who own the great in
dustries of the land is inevitable.
1t is amusing to see how silly the
merchants are to support a system
that is undermining them, but
they will get like us clodhoppers
they will get their eyes opened
when they are crowded out, so
let it come, the sooner the better.
The same thing can be said of us
farmers. Every thing around us,
except our wives and children de-
notes our ignorance. The houses
we live in, our out buildings,
our fences, our school and church
houses built out of rough, knotty
lumber with straight back seats
as hard as a pine knot for our
wives and little children to sit on
all show this. People who have
no more sense than to tackle
God in houses like the majority
have hasn't enough to know
when they did get religion or
whether a hog law would or
would not be good for them.
The money we have squander-
ed since the Civil war, doing
business on time, would have
built residences for ourselves
equal to any buildings in our
towns, and school houses and
churches as fine as any in Pres
colt. and seated with seats equal
to any in a pullman palace car.
Our wives and children are en-
titled to these things, and we
ought to be made to sit in church
during services on 2 by 4 turn
ed up edge ways, as a reminder
of our ignorance. If you will go
into any city and look inside the
churches you will see where
your church and school money
goes, it is given to the other
people and not your own.
This week am limited for
space, and will have to close.
