ISSUED NO REPORTS.

The Nevada-Ut has never issued a
report as required by tho Nevada law.
but since the change In control every
effort is being made to settle affairs.
The company declared that 1t had not
enough money on hand to Issue the
required report, yet 1t boosted Of hay
ing 100000 in the treasury in cash.
1t is probable that when the real truth
comes out tho company cannot boast
OF more than $4,000. When George D..
Leonard was president of the company,
drawing $4,000 a year for looking wise
and riding In private car other
salaries were In proportion. Little two
by six fractional claims had their 500
n year assessment work spent on them
no matter how far removed from the
mineral area. superlntendents were
paid to hang around and do nothing, a
$500 a month secretary Of tho company
sat In an office and received letters Of
complaints from stockholders that
would fairly burn n man up with
shame. The secretary probably came
the nearest earning his salary as he
had to read the letters. #|"U#ftaff

From the start Nevada-Utah was

over the Phoebe ground. In 1906 Col.
John Weir attempted to put through
deal whereby he would get possess

paying for it. He was then the ruling
spirit In Nevada Utah. His little
scheme was thwarted and later 1t re-
suited in the dispute between the
Ohio kentucky and the Nevada-Utah.3
In 1907 Weir lost out and George D.

IF any man can show me that l do
change for / seek only the truth by
which no man was ever injured"
The fact that neither the manufac.
turers themselves nor their official
organ were able to attack or over
turn our arguments is the best COM
mentary on their soundness.
The paramount need, as / see 1t,
is for a uniform system. There
ought to be definite understand
ing between the farmers organiza-
tons and the manufacturers organ
iZations as to the amount Of tare to
be allowed on each bale and the
present double standard system,
with all OF its Irregularities and
losses forever done away with.
II the tare were less than 6 per
cent, but uniform and unvarying,
prices would soon be adjusted
through natural law to compensate
for the increased percentage of lint
in a bale, but with the present dou-
ble-standard system the farmer gets
caught between the upper and Meth
er millstones and has lost thousands
of dollars as result.
II q per cent tare is to be and con-
tinue the recognized standard by
European manufacturers-an 1t
has been the standard so long that
manufacturers tell us it would be
almost impossible to change it-then
the American standard should be re-
vised to accord with 1t.
In other words, we must have
uniform system, and the 6 per cent

sold at cotton prices. In fact,
so far from the system of sell
ing by net weight being objec-
tionable, the farmers know very
well that the mills do not really
buy bagging and ties but always
make their price with a view TO
buying only the net weight.
The point l make is. that long
custom and the uniform prac-
tice among European buyers is
to assume that net weight is 6
per cent less than the gross
weight, and that prices for cot
ton are fixed upon this basis
as it is reasonable to assume
since the larger part of our cot
ton crop Is bought by Europe
in which the per cent tare is
the rule.
LAS matter of fact, then, it
is not the case that where the
farmer puts on full per cent,
he is selling bagging and ties at
cotton prices, but the real situa-
ton is, that where less than 6
per cent is put on, cotton is sold
at bagging prices.
"As for buying at net weight,
that is what the cotton world is
is aiming at now, for the price
is lowered sufficiently to allow
for the bagging and ties. The
need is for uniformity, so that
one class (the buyers and man
ufacturers) will not get the adj
vantage which another class
(the farmers) is entitled to.
Our position in the matter is

position, but could not come back at

ments, although l made it plain that
l wrote with no feeling toward either
cotton buyer or cotton manufacturer
and with an earnest desire not only
to be absolutely fair, but to get any
information that might show me in
error. For as | said to them in the

NOME TINE last fall, if l am
- not mistaken, ] saw in The
~ Progressive Farmer and
Gazette an article, advising
farmers to put 80 pounds of bag
ging on their cotton, including
ties. The farmers here, follow
ing your advice did so. The mill
men kicked on 1t and stopped all
local buyers from buying, saying
a farmer had just as we'll put in
plank to make up. as it would be
more honorable.
Some one wrote an article
about 1t making the same sort
Of argument, and l am surprised
at your not replying to it. You
surely have not noticed 1t. Not
only myself. but all farmers are
surprised at your not replying.

to put 1t on? II it is defend us;
II not publish the amount we
can put on It, C.

tare seems to be the only one that
can be agreed upon.
The letter which | sent the Amer
lean Textile Manufacturer, and
which they did not even publish,
may make our position even clearer
and is appended herewith:
A Letter the Manufacturers Wouldn't

To the Editor: I have read

derstand the spirit of The Pro-
gressive Farmer and the South

Tare on Cotton.

Mr.. D. j. Neill, the widely-known
Texas Farmers Union leader, writes
The Progressive Farmer and Gazette
concerning the cotton tare question,
as follows:
II have advocated for sometime
that our Legislature could pass law
compelling the ginner to put on gun
ny to make up the 80 pounds tare
upon bale of cotton, and also that
we have law forbidding the COM
presses to use gunny only to repair
to damage that is done to the bag
ging in transit. The per cent tare
as is now in force by the London and
Liverpool Exchanges can only be
overcome by the placing of this
per cent tare upon the bale of cotton
at the gin. The exporter who buys
the cotton in the interior and has it
compressed at the compress receives
the benefit of the excess for himself
or the same goes to the spinner buy
er. If the Southern States would
pass law compelling the ginner to
put upon all cotton baled the amount
as demanded by the exchanges and
forbidding the congresses to add to
it's weight then the exporter nor his
agent would not be benefited by the
exaction and the matter would be ad-
justed in way that would benefit
the producer of cotton"

(Answer by Editor Clarence Poe. }

NauSWeT Oy EDITOR clarence roe
am glad to get the letter from
&C." but he should remember that all
The Progressive Farmer and Gazette
can do in a case like this Is to tell
what is right. With all the informa-
ton before us, we said, and still say,
that the farmer r. entitled to put o
per cent tare on his cotton bales.
This Is his right. but II the farmer
II not disposed to insist on IL, we
cannot help It. The farmer has a
right now to get Ia to Is cents for
good cotton. but X he Is willing to
be run over and let buyer take 1t
for 10 cents. we have too much i'm
portant work to do to 80 out and
fight the battles Of a man who won't
stand up for himself.
The q per cent tare il right and
farmers from one end Of the South
tn the other ought to organize with
view to enforcing this right ON all
1910 markets.
All that we can do Is to tell them
this and then II Is up to them.
through the Farmers Unions and
other ways to do the rest.
But why do we say the per cent
tare is right?
Put In a nutshell. our position is
just this: Europe buys most OF our
cotton. and buys II on a basis of 6
per cent tare-fixes prices with a
view to losing per cent to get net
weight President J. l.. Lee of the
Georgia Farmers Union publicly as
serted last fall that Wilmington. At
lanta. Augusta, and Savannah export
pounds and put on the full 80 pounds
before exporting.
II the European manufacturers
allow q per cent for tare, then the
American manufacturers should eth
err allow q per cent or pay high
err price for their lint. And II
per cent is right. then 1t is not the
case that where the farmer puts on
the full 6 per cent, he Is acting dis
honorably and selling bagging and
ties at cotton prices; the real truth
is. that where less than 6 per cent
is used the buyer might more rea-
sonably be accused because he gets
cotton at bagging prices. And 1t is In
getting cotton at bagging prices that
the only unfair action has been go
ing on, IL the information ! have Is
correct.
Last fall the American Textile
Manufacturer jumped on me for my
fight for the per cent tare, and
answered them with the letter add
ed herewith. Although l watched
their paper carefully they have new
err yet published this reply, 80 far as
can learn, nor have they ever re-
futed my position by private CORE
spondence. One or two leading cot
