trarily deducted from the net proceeds OF the
sale If eight yards are used on the bale IN
the Augusta market penalty is imposed and
taken out of the proceeds of the SALE
Is there any law for this? None whatever
To take one dollar per bale on any such pre-
tence is a felonious appropriation, by the
cotton factor, of his patrons money. The
statutory name for it is Larceny after
Trust"
The excuse given by the cotton factors for
taking other peoples money in this way IS,
that the .Arlzwright Club, the New England
organization of spinners, refuses to allow more
than twenty-five pounds for bagging and ties.
Why have the Southern cotton factors made
such cowardly surrender to the New Eng
land spinners? Why have they taken no
stand for the rights of the Southern cotton
growers?
Where is there another class of shippers
that are subjected to this arbitrary dictation
and this infamous robbery?
In another place in this issue will be found

closing the circular sent out by those Atlanta
cotton factors.

how the farmer loses the value of the bagging

EDITORIAL NOTES
BY j. ID. WATSON

President Taft has sent his annual message
to Congress,-a long-winded document of
about $4,000 Words which begins with Arbi-
tration and ends with the Bureau of Health.
Under the head, "The Far East" the Presi-
dent begins with "The centre of interest in
Far Eastern affairs during the past year has
again been China"
Here the President grows enthusiastic in
telling how this government has succeeded in
getting part of two big loans for our finan-
cial groups-one to build the railroad from
Hankow through the Yangtse Valley, known
as the Hulzuang loan, and the other a loan
of $5O,0000OO, to be employed chiefly in cur
rency reform in China.
These loans which the government secured
for our financial groups were those that j..
L. Morgan & Co., wanted to get and the
greater part of which was furnished by the
Morgan banks
These were the loans that Morgan made
Secretary Knox use his influence, as Secre-
tary of State, to secure for him. Not only did
Knox himself work for Morgan, but he made
every one connected with the Diplomatic
Corps in China work like beavers to aid Nor
gan to get his grasping clutches on the finances
OF Chlna,-a burden which the Chinese GOV
eminent will never be able to throw off.
Yet the Chief Executive of the nation has
the impudence to tell the people and their
representatives ut is gratifying' that Morgan
ordered the Department Of State to work for
him and secure deal with a foreign country
that will enable this pirate of finance to get
strangle hold on that foreign, almost help
less, governments financial affairs
From the Far East, the President goes to
Latin America, then to Tariff Negotiations
with Canada, which are progressing as salts
factorily as the Administration could wish.
Then the President takes up the Depart
ment OF state upon which devolve "all these
tariff negotiations, so vital to our commerce
and industry, and the duty of jealousy guard
ing the equitable and just treatment of our
products, capital and industry abroad"
Such 'products, capital and industry
abroad" meaning the securing of contracts to
build ships for South American countries by
the Steel Trust, and the furnishing of rail
road material to South American countries,
as we'll as to China, by the same Trust much
cheaper than the said Steel Trust will build

A Discrimination Against The Cotton
Farmer i'm the Matter OF Tare

In sending commodities into the market for
sale, we put them into boxes, barrels, baskets,
sacks, jugs, bottles, ETC. The weight of the
box, BARREL ETC., is called tare.
In nearly all cases, this tare is partial or
total loss to somebody. Therefore, the ques-
ton as to who shall lose this tare is one of
great and almost universal Importance.
When the merchant buys a ham enclosed,
for instance, In canvas, the covering is
weighed along with the meat, and the mer-
chant pays for it as so much ham. The
original packer, who sacked up the ham in
the canvas, did not lose anything on the cloth,
but got at least full pay for it by selling is as
ham. But, did the merchant lose it? Not
at all. He passed it on to the final pur-
chaser of the ham; and this final purchaser
was the loser of the tare.
So, also, in the purchase of a sack or hogs
head of bacon, side meat, ETC.. the saczing and
the hogshead itself are weighed as part of
the meat.
The same thing is true of meal and flour,
whether sold In sacks or in barrels.
If you will take the trouble to measure the
contents of pint or quart bottle, or of Jug,
you will find that they do not contain full
measure They are generally short to a suf-
fcient amount to make you pay tare
Even in the purchase Of goods in a retail
store where they have to be wrapped and
corded-such as small quantities of sugar
-four, meat, etc.-the paper and the binding
Irvine are weighed to you, along with the COM
modify which you purchased.
Thus, it is a general rule that the original
seller of the commodities is repaid the value
of whatever material he used to put them in
marketable condition. and that it is the last
purchaser who really pays the tare.
But when it comes to the cotton grower, the
rule is reversed. He not only loses the full
amount of the bag and the ties, but an extra
penalty is put upon him if he uses more than
a certain quantity. To make matters worse,
the rules on the subject are not uniform. For
instance, in the Augusta, Ga, market you
can use seven yards of bagging and six ties;
whereas, in the Atlanta, Ga, market only six
yards of bagging are allowed. If seven yards
are used in the latter market, penalty of one
dollar is imposed upon the bale, and is arbi-
