CALL HIN UNCLE SAMSON

The Natchez Democrat is usually
very fair but it contained an unwaI-
ranted attack upon the Farmer.'
Union in its last issue. The ed,to.
must have been misled by some q
the misinformation sent out from Fost
Worth, otherwise we are at lost Ia
account for the following remarkable
statement.
with much complaeeney and sang
froid the Farmers Union in session
at Fort Worth. Texas. proposes thai
Uncle Sam take over the South's cob
tton crop rs il il were trifling max
ter Of a few dollars. No doubt tbcIy
were those present who have giyet
the subject much thought, and men u
sober, sound judgement and probiiy'
The National Convention Of ihv
Farmers Union which met at Fou
Worth was not composed OF parCts
OF fools. The editor Of the Democrat
seems to admit that fact in the las.
sentence quoted above, though hr
first sentence is a complete eontradic-
ton. The Fort Worth Convention did
not ask the government TO take ov0
the Souths cotton cvrop, but il did
ask the government TO so legislat,
that the cotton producers themselves
would have the means to handle The
present situation. That is no mon,
than the Jackson convention or the
New Orleans convention will want 10
do.
How is this to be done? By NAL
ing their warehouse receipts liIuiS
assets the same as mercantile paper,
and by providing q channel through
which funds can be secured on thcs,
assets at reasonable interest, 90
pecially in these distressing times.
/ The banks can be and should be thus
channel. but there should be a linn
TO the rate they can charge for inte'-
est. The government loans money
to the banks at two per cent, and TN
banks ioan II to the customers at sis,
eight and ten per cent. That's bust
ness. But when the cotton Producer
through their organized bodies ash the
government to limit the rate Of inter
est or loan direct or through oihc-
channels-that's populitism.
The Farmers Union does not asa
the government to take over the cottoA
crop, but Il does ask il to relieve Tie
present distres~ Tho government

Cotton Convention in New Orleans

Tuesday there assembled a repre-
sentative body of business men and
formers Of the South to thresh or
what would be the best course to pur-
sac in regards to the coming year.
The convention was decidedly divi
ded on whether there should be no cot
ton planted next year. II looks good
ON paper to have big demand for the
cotton which has been raised this
year, but long before il is time TO
plant the next cotton crop nine
tenths Of the present crop will have
bid farewell to the one who produced
it.
The plan to reduce the acreage Is
an right, but to raise no cotton at all
IN the South is a question that would
simply ruin the cotton industry of
The South. The labor Of any section is
the most important feature and II the
iaborer can't get the work in one sec
ton he will be forced to seek il in
another. With the labor all scattered
and demoralized il would take years
to have this country in prosperous
condition again.

Letters Made Public in Which Sena'

Much has been made Of portion
of the State press of an interview
given out by Gov. Brewer, charging
that Senator Vardaman "knew BilbC
to be crook but Senator Vardamar
repudiates the insinuation. as will bt
seen by he following correspondence
Senator Vardaman has the courage OF
his convictions and always stands by
his friends, and very naturally resent
ed the charges made by Governor
Brewer. The following correspon-
dence explains itself:
Washington, D. c., Sept. Is, 1914.
"Hon. Earl Brewer, Jackson, Miss.
my Dear Gov. Brewer-I noticed
an interview from you in which you
are reported as saying: Senator Var
daman knows as we'll as l do that
lBilbo is a crook, but he has not the
S6rve to come out and say so, as I
Nave done. Senator vardman fears
that if 'Bilbo s klected governor he
would go right otter his position in
the Senate, and while ne Gears to cross
him in any way he knows that Bilbo
is crook
81 cannot believe that you express
ed the sentiment imputed to you.

The Color Of Army Horses.-The
color line is being drawn by the army
in the purchase Of horses. 1t has not
been drawn in favor Of white or light
colored horses, but against them, and
in favor of sorrels, bays and even
blacks. Because Of their visibility
white and gray horses are not consid-
cred desirable for mounts. In the
field they are marks for sharpshoot-
ers, and on this account the quarter
master corps has stopped purchasing
light colored horses. officers are per-
mitted to purchase gray horses if they
care to take the chances of being shot
in the event that they are on the fir
ing line. But the inspector general s
department has condemned the gen.
eral use Of gray horses in the army.
of the officers of the army from rid
ing gray horses, and they have refus-
ed to draw the color line.
Some of the members of the gener-
al staff are advocating the issuance of
a general order prohibiting the use of
gray or light colored horses in the
army, as they claim that even with a
few officers on light colored mounts,
the enemy will be able to locate a
regiment or a company which might
be on scout duty. The question wheth-
er a gray horse is officially regarded
as a suitable mount for an officer has
been the subject Of lively controversy
at at least one army post.-Army and

Man and Starched Collar.

The papers report that league has
been formed to "emancipate man from
the starched collar"
Nonsense! Man does not need any
such emancipation, except on some
extra hot days in summer, and then
he emancipates himself.
There is more moral support, more
reinforcement Of character, in a
starched collar than can be had in any
other form for the same money. The
starched collar is the badge Of Euro
pean civilization. Asia never develop
ed it. Neither did Africa. The Chi
years, but no starched collar. Where
is their civilization now? 1t has gone
to the laundry.
The Hindoos are kind to animals
and a thoughtful people, but they
have never taken to starched collars
Where are they now? Trying to land
in British Columbia, trying to stay in
South Africa, and being shooed away
by collar wearers.
The Persians are on the run. The
Japanese, the liveliest people in Asia,
when they accepted western civiliza-
ton. accepted starched collars with
both hands The American negroes
wear the tallest and stffest collars to
be had There is hope for them.
The starched collar is the palladium
Of responsibility. 1t is the token of
victory over self Talk about abol-
ishing it is all bosh. Abolish trou-
sers if necessary: nations have become
great without them; but stick to the
collar and stick to the starch.-Life.
