Mnlllk, iw'luiivi: to l.Mnl.IMmiont of 'kintUvo Cotton Warehouse Spoaks HI Cbiirt Hou.se To-Dor. . ..It wa an exceedingly small audi ence which greeted .Mr. E, , D. Smith at the Academy of Music last plght, but It wai an audience which stayed with him to the end.. Mr. Smith came to Charlotte to present to the farmer of Mecklenburg "county In particular, ; and to the business men, bankers and otheri ' Interested v toJb prosperity of the farmer In general, the propo' sltlon to establish In Charlotte a eot- ' ton warehouse under the auspices : the Southern Cotton Association, to be owned bv the cotton btowcts. In his speech last night Mr. Smith die turned the situation of the cotton ' erower of the South past and present, Ha showed the adsolute necessity f organisation to accomplish anything In the way of bettering the conditions of-the - Southern farmer. Too long, ha said, has the Northern speculator trampled at will upon the helpless cotton grower, who has borne all the toll of producing the staplo at a price mmh mihls-h In turn th snprulntor - reaps a rich profit. ' The audience which heard Mr ' Smith was charmed with his speech, It covered the situation adequately, dealt with It earnestly and understand- Ingly and the discriminating English in which It was expressed comported well wlthi the elonuent manner In which It was delivered. At the close of the meeting last night President C. C. Moore, of the North Carolina Division of the Cotton Association, asked for some expres ion of opinion from those present on the proposed enterprise. Mayor Mc- : Nlnch responded first. He expressed regret at the small attendance, but said he knew Charlotte well enough - not to be discouraged by thin. He ex pressed approbation of the movement of the farmer. A number of others responded In similar Vein. It was moved and carried that a committee Of business men be appointed to re port on the proposition outlined at some subsequent meeting. This com- mlttee will be appointed to-day. There will be another meeting to day at 1 o'clock at the county court house at which Mr. Rmlth will speak. This will probably be a large meeting, as the farmers from the country will be able to attend. Mr. J. P. Allison, of Concord, was scheduled to speak at both meetings. Though ho came to Charlotte yester day he was called back to Concord on business and will be unable to peak to-day. The warehouse plan, as outlined by Mr. Smith. Is a cooperative affair, limited to (he county, wherein the county president has charge of the cotton deposited. Issues receipts, ues the cotton as collateral, or acts as the agent of the asoclatlon In any ca pacity open to the agent of a corpor ation which meets with the pleasure of the county association. In short It Is dealgned that the middleman's profit shall go to the cotton grower themselves. Mr. Smith hope that In a short time every county In the Btate will be organized.
