4 Correction.

We take pleasure in quoting
from a letter of Wyatt Hunt,
Clerk of Pleasant Hill church,
the following correction. We
were evidently misinformed.
Mr.. Editor, it was a surprise
to us to know you had published
us as one faction composed of
one-half the membership. The
record of Pleasant Hill church
shows that less than one-ffth of
the membership under her watch
care. have withdrawn.

could be done, but it can't be.
II there is no pool, the farmer
must sell alone to the trust and
therefore the farmer has moth
ing whatever to do with selling
his own tobacco or handling his
own business. The trust attends
to that for him.
The farmer can bet his last
ginger cake that the trust will
look after the interest of the
trust in the transaction. If the
farmer pools his tobacco with
the Farmers Union, he can de-
pend upon them doing the best
it can to look after the farmers
interest.
The farmer must leave the
matter either to the trust or to
the farmers union association.
1t is left for the farmer to de-
eide which it shall be.
The farmer has an object les
son that he would do we'll not to
forget.
He knows what he received
for tobacco when the matter was
in the hands of the trust.
He knows whist he has receiv-
ed since the matter was in the
hands of the Association.
Everything the Farmers I'm.
ion has done may not have been
to his liking, but it has helped
to double the price of his tobac-
co.
Everything the trust did and
is yet trying to do, was and is
unsatisfactory to the farmer to-
gether with the fact it beat
prices down to $500 and 81. eC
per hundred.
Therefore the advice have to
the farmers is to pool their to-
bacco and be patient, be loyal
and reap the reward Of a perma-
nent good price for their tobacco
which they have no right to
hope for, if they permit the
Farmers Union to go down and
are again left unprotected in
their dealings with the tobacco
trust, the only buyer for their
tobacco.
Respectfully Yours,
CHAS. w. Fox,
Sec'y of the Crittenden Co.. a.,

In the South where an Industrious

the least doubt that the relations Of
the two races in the South are today
vastly better than they were 10 years
