At one side OF the office diagonally
from the managing editors desk was
high mahogany desk which backed
against n wooden partition which cut
off small room used as "mOrgue,"
the place where newspaper and maya
zine clippings are kept for reference.
Through the partition Il round hole
about five inches in diameter had been
cut with a handsaw, and on table In
the morSue Il camera had been rested
with the telescope protuberance con-
tanning the lens projecting through the
hole in the partition into private
mail box directly above the desk The
door OF This box. into which were
placed letters arriving for the munag-
ing editor during his absence. had
been unlocked. A line Of shoe thread
had been fastened TO the door Of the
box and extended down behind the
desk to the floor and across to the
left hand side OF Brands desk. 4
slight tug on the thread would cause
the door OF the mail box TO open. ex-
posing to the lens Brands desk, his
chair and another chair which had
been placed at the right Of the desk
next to the telephone.
For several minutes the mysterious
preparations went on. Just what they
meant no one but Brand could tell,
and he was strangely silent, except as
to directing what should be done.
Hartley was anxious to make GER

Brands desk. He measured the line
with his eye.

g RESOLVED, That it is the sense
IL of the Farmers Union of
HN Gwinnett county, Georgia,
that the payment of an an
nual pension of one thousand dol
lars, or any other sum, to Mrs Newt
Gresham is altogether unwarranted,
and that we earnestly protest against
the payment of the same by the Ma
tional Union, and that our delegates
to the National Union be instructed
to work and vote for the repeal Of
the same, using their utmost endea-
vors to the end, we being firmly con-
WINGED that the same is detrimental
to the best interests of our Order
being against our motion of special
privileges to none and equal rights
to all.
Resolved further, That the secre-
tary be requested to furnish the
Union News with copy of this reso-
luton and request it's publication.

AS to your having held so many i'm

such wonderful and unlimited knowl-
edge of Unionism, think there is at
least one other thing for you to
learn, and that is that peace and
unity cannot be preserved in the
Farmers Union by trying to prevent
full and free discussion of the
measures adopted or proposed by the
conventions of the Union. Yes; I

ion I do not know it yet, although
you have been so kind as to offer
said information, for you know that
you are only human and may be mis-
taken. [ had, however, heard long
ago that he killed himself working
for the Union. Have you referred
our resolution to the State Conven-
ton? If so, when has there been a
convention since this matter sprung?
Read your letters to the County
Union? Yes, sir, | will read them
to the County Union, not for the in
formation they contain (because we
had all the facts before us when the
action was taken), but because of
the reflection cast upon the intelli-
gence, the character, the manhood
and loyalty, of the men composing

Brightness and loyalty to Union prin-
ciples are second to no set of men
anywhere. Read your letters? Yes,
/ will read them to the County Union
at it's next meeting Now, for some
plain facts. The reason for passing
the resolution was because our Local
Unions were complaining that their
members were complaining of having
to pay higher dues and the proceeds
going to pay this pension, and they
were not allowed any voice in the
matter. Other members, good men,
positively refuse to pay any more
dues so long as this pernicious pen
sion is paid out Of the dues sent to
the National Union; so, you see, it
is already hurting the Union.
Caesar had his Brutus, Charles I.
his Cromwell, and some of the Off
. Gals of the Farmers Union will be
wise to. profit by their example
Respectfully yours,
J. w. McELVANY,
Sec.-Treas. Gwinnett Co. Farmers
Union.
