 Of the Meeting.

Memphis
 Governor Chas. H Brough of Ar kansas created sensation here at the meeting of cotton planters. fac tors and bankers from practically all the cotton growing states. when in the course ef an address strongly m uorsing the plan for the formation of large stock corporation for the ex- porting of the cotton grown fn fhe South. he vigorously attacked Gov ernor Allen of Kansas. whose recent assaults, upen the plan of the South to elCtect it's cotton growing inter ests. have been much in the lime light

Pershing i5 Missourian and every Southern state. not only furnished lnder the draft. but sent overseas as large T proportion of troops as Governor AL lens state.
 Tt ill-behooves the governor of state. the price of whose wheat has been fixed by the United States gov ernment at s226 bushel, and which will be paid for in part by the con sumers of the South, to criticize the South for a movement, which is not only in the interests of it's own salvation, but in the interests of the entire country"
 The Arkansas governor also sad that neither the acreage reduction plan or the proposed cotton corpora ton, decided upon at conference, are not violations of the sherman act. but are sanctioned by the Webb Pomerene act, and that a similar movement was approved a number of years ago by former President Roosevelt.
