would mean, my friends, that the
surplus cotton of the South would
be carried in the State where it was
produced. and that in that way,
the surplus cotton, which is used
always to depress the price, would
be held at home, and only let loose
as there was an actual demand for
it. There can be no solution of the
cotton question which does not in
volve the producers of cotton, or
their friends, carrying the surplus,
because if the consumers of cotton

they can at any time, by throwing
it on the market, depress the price
Of the cotton which has not been

Of carrying the surplus except
through an effective and comprehen-
