Dear Sir:-In view of existing con-
iitiGns and the causes, which are prob
ably various, it see.as that something
should be done or efforts made to ar
rive at some potent and atfectual means
to continually develop and keep In
moving progress the recources OF our
Of our country. and malnstay: and en-
courage the productive interest thereof
in such way and TO such an extent
that the efforts of the best intelligence
OF the country may with i fair degree
of certainty invest their means and
utilize their energies with reasonable
hope of fair returns for themselves and
the betterment of the productive inter-
est of the country at large.
Therefore, it appears TO the writer
that the most effective pl Ian 10 ACCOM-
pIish such end will be to have township
meetings Of Cur citizens. representing
every interest, IN every township. dis
cuss mat -ers and elect delegates TO
county me eetings, when matters may be
rediscussed and proper anG best means
arrived at for relief.
1t is fact that present conditions in
many respects are different from what
they were Two years or even one year
ago, and Notwithstanding the efforts be-
ing made to relief, the results OF the
present cotton crop depression, it ap..
pears to the writer that here should
be some legislative action, both Stats
and national. with q view to lncourage
and protect the interest OF the soil pro-
ducers of the country.
Hence, Mr.. Editor, | suggest that
you call township meetings (announce
in paper of the citizens of each town
ship to meet at q certain place (naming
the PLACE. on . CERTAIN day: making the
date as early as practable TO discuss
this matter, and matters generally. and
elect delegates to caunty convention
so that we may get 10 touch with all
our people ana suggest TO our law
makers the enactment of such laws as
we think would relieve the present de-
pressed conditions and provide against
j repetition OF the same.
