Carries BY Large Majority.
JOnesbOro.

JOneSbOrO.-
The session OF the twelfth annual
meeting of the State Farmers Union
convened at Jonesboro, with the pres
ident, H. S. Mobley, presiding.
The union went on record with a
strong resolution indorsing the work
of President Mobley and greatly re-
GREETING the fact that he announced
publicly that he could not under any
consideration accept the Office of pres
ident for another year. At the fore
noon session the union passed a num-
ber Of resolutions, one Of which will
be Of much interest to the farmers Of
the state, it being one asking the next
session of the Arkansas Legislature
to pass an act repeating section 10
of the act creating the agricultural
schools. Another resolution was the
Endorsement of the bill in Congress

trict-in which he is seeking to en-
act a law setting aside the money
derived from the sale of lands or tim
Der from the forest reserves for the
benefit of the four agricultural
schools and the university.

office OF the commissioner Of mines

strong resolution was passed urging
the national meeting Of the Farmers
Union to come to JonesborO for 1917,

had requested that this convention
be held here.

many speeches, the vote was taken
and carried by large majority.
The resolution opposing the repeal
of the statewide prohibition bill was
passed unanimously, the only objec-
tion being raised by Ben L. Griffin,
who raised the point of order, saying
it was unconstitutional. The presi-
dent ruled against him The next
