the necessity of doing eomething for

This letter la oo very full of good

person owing him for supplies. This

"Vflale I am eecretary of the State
' , yarmers' Alliance, these meetings are
, . not called under the auspices of the
jUllaaoe or any other farmers' organ -Isatlon;
but are called to meet the
; urgent demands of the times. I want
them free from everything that would
cause a alngle farmer to hesitate to at
tend and participate in them. There
fore, I auggest that a progressive,
, level-headed farmer, one in whom the
- people have full confidence and one
vWho has executive ability, be made
; chairman of the meeting. The chair
man can state the object of the meet-
- Ing, which la to formulate a plan to
advance and maintain the price of cot-
ton at a, point where it will be re
munerative to the growers. He can
, have the eecretary read any plans that

Apart from the general trade takings,
a lot of good graded Texaa has chang

chants, who had previously contracted
ahead for deferred delivery for defi

mixture of staple In many Texaa ship

ter have thought It wise to make their
own selections here, and thus cover
their forward commitments, freeing
themselves from further anxiety on
this score. This is an object lesson for
some of our Texas friends, who have
been rather lax in selecting out 28,000
to 30,000 staples, and who forget the
cost entailed here when once the bales
