has believed all along that cotton
would go to forty cents a pound, and
he has backed his Judgment by keep
ing marly three hundred bales off the
market for months. His holdings, ul
the present price, are estimated to be
wmi h over i5rt.l.MMi. Had he sold his
cotton several weeks ano, when It was
briiiuinic only 30 cents a pound, he
would have done so at a loss of $15,-
000 compared with what he can get
at prevailing prices.
On account of the small atten-
rtiuicp nt the nieetine Saturday, the
organization of the American Legion
has been deterred until haturuay.
November 8th, at two o'clock. In the
Chamber of Commerce rooms. Every
soldier In Union County who possibly
ran do so Is meed to be present at
this meeting. Short talks were made
Saturday by Major Hugh Hinde, Dr.
H. D. Stewart, Mr. Gillian Craig, and
Mr. Joe Hudson. Mr. John Beasley
was elected temporary post-comman
der, and Mr. Hudson temporary post
adjutant.
The small farmer Is the one who
is benefited most by high cotton pri
ces, according to Mr. W. L. Mindcr
burk. To illustrate his viewpoint, he
relates the following: "The tlrst ot
the vear one of the laziest darkey
farmers In the county came to me for
work. I knew his reputation. Din
needing hejp badly, I decided to em
ploy him. For a couple of months he
stayed with me, doing Deuer worn
than I expected. When planting time
came I found that I had no more use
for him on my place; but, feeling sor-
rv for him. I offered to rent nun a
f land. He agreed to
OWIUI. J'W.v.. " .
my terms, and began to work. Dur-
inir tho sPBKon he went in ueoi 10 me
fnr ion for rations and fertilizer.
The other day he sold three bales of
cotton, and the proceeds were laige
innnvh tn nnv his hills for the year,
and give me half of the cotton for my
share. He has seven more Dales to
sell, and bv the end of the year ne
will have cleared from $700 to $1000.
Until this year I don't believe he ever
cleared over $50 off his crop.
Nearly two hundred operatives,
it is said, failed to show up for work
at the lcemorlee cotton mill Monday,
and for a while it was thought tne
mill would have to. shut down, or
operate with a greatly reduced force.
Sheriff John Griffith, however, went
to the Village in the afternoon, and
persuaded the men to meet witn .mi.
Chapman, head of the mill. Mr. Hob
Iceman, the superintendent, and Mr
Roland, the. secretary, for a confer
ence. The differences were settled,
and the men- readily agreed o go
back to work. The cause of the
strike. The Journal is informed, was
due to the discharge of a union man.
Sheriff Crlfflth found the men assem
bled at a small store near the mill,
and arter reminding them of ho Mr.
Iceman looked after them while In
fluenza raged last fall, securing four
nurses to attend them while other
towns were unable to gel medical aid.
the men agreed to talk over their
troubles with Mr. Chapman and Mr.
Iceman. The terms of the settlement
are not known; but It Is understood
that both sides are perfectly satisfied,
and that the owners and the employ
ees will continue to work together in
harmonv like they have ever since ihe
