NUMIEN2I j i EDITORIAL SPRINGFIELD SUN ROGERS GORE EDITOR WOE TO HIM THAT BUILDETIf TOWN WITH STABLISHETH CITY l CIVIL LIdERTYII rf 1 Civil liberty has been slaughtered in thejnty of Louisville and that too under Republican rule 1 We were assured by Mr Ricffard Knott editor of the Post and by a host Republtbailp Louisville spiritual and spotless and permanently prosperous was a change from a Democratic to a Republican ad nsninistration f V Last November the change pas brought about and there were s folks who really Expected Louisville to grow white wings and hover herself oyer Kentucky as a Guardian An el Everything everybody was slatedfor oflwhitewaShmg cleansing The police were to be rigidly discip lined and putrification in this depart ment of the municipal government Vas to give way to purification The fire laddies were to be transformed immediately from black goats to white sheep and the City Hall was to be a veritable tabernacle inhabited by Jloly and righteous gentlemen with alert eyes upon the ballot box breathingde fiance at him who would touch it with unclean fingers Indeed there were many people who expected to sep a New Jerusalem spring kupivhere now stands the metropolis of Kentucky But the renovation and transformation did not materialize land jtis now openly and above board re marked by hundreds of people who vo ted for the reformers II that poor Paul Barth gave to the city of Louis f ville a better administration in every particular than the people are nowire ceiymg at the hands of the reform e sU v- Civil liberty in the Fills City is as a rottemng carcass oer which the hungry buzzards feast and spew A gentleman who formerly lived in Washington county but who now fives t in Louisville while here on a visitire cently said toa friend I was led to believe that we needed a changjl of parties in the management of the lty government of Louisville and last fall I voted the Republican ti ket I rfow see that I made a most serious mistake- There has been more corruption in I J Louisville during the past few months h than there ever was during ten years of Democratic rule Through the lips of lifelong Rep b lican leaders we are told that the fralids perpetrated in Louisville last Saturday at the Republican primary were the most violent ever witnessed in that city j J NOTHING AT ALL TO SAYVI il Ah article headed The Tobacco rigit 1 nation inKentucky taken fromthe 0 Lexington Herald and signed Inde pendent Grower is printed in thisis sueof The Sun by request The fact that we print this article does not mean that we agree with the writerwith ref r erence to cutting out the 1908 crop Nor 1greewithis neutral We announced at the begin ning of the nocrop contest that the question was too big for us and that we would keep handsoff penstill and mouthshut in the matter We have contended and yet contend that each individual should solve this problem for himself If a farmer believes that he may bet ter the condition of limself and neigh bora by not tobacco this t1r ifinoti t and friends by raising tobacco he should be permitted to do so Each has a right to try to convince the other that it is unwise to cut out or H but in but no one has a right to say you sIal1 not In matters of this nature persua sionis the only legitimate and lawiul means that may be used to bring about certain ends and conditions If we go beyond we tread upon dangerous ground THE UNDERLYING CAUSE Republican primaries Or conventions in K ntucky last Saturday were attended bv fraud and rioting in many sections of the State Rump conventions and contesting delegations noise from the fellows in the ranks and fistfights among the bosses upon the rostrums marked the proceedings in a number of Kentuckys countyseats In Louisville each side tried tQ run roughshod oyer the other The Taft and Fairbanks followers mixed liked seidlitz powders and foamed and fumed throughout The police were constantly called for snd the game of knockdown and drag out was playedia most determined manner Inasmuch as the Taft fol lowers were successful they are satis theyIministered a severe rebuke to Senator elect Bradley But the Fairbanks peo pIe say they were robbed and outraged and are now bitterly denouncing the methods of the Taft leaders Mr M H Thatcher a Fairbanks lieutenant says the primary was the most infa mous ever held in Kentucky The CourierJournal says the Fairbanks leaders in Louisville will call an indig nation meeting to protest against the force and fraud perpetrated last Satur d yThe advisability of taking this step was discussed informally by the Fairbanks leaders yesterday says the CourierJournal Ifsuch a meeting is held it is said a resolution will be of fered asking the Board of Public Safe to because of the itty resign part per mitted the police to pfay in the pri mary The underlying cause pf this turmoil among Kentucky Republicans is an in satiable and uncontrollable desire tor appointive office The ins are de termined not to get utanci the U outs are determined to get in It does hot often happen that the Re publican party south of the Ohio river splits disagrees over a principle It is no trouble totut heads together write a local opHon plank put aHvet candidate upon a dry platform and catch a sufficient number of wet Democrats to defeat a Democratic nominee But when it comes to the distribution of patronage quarrels result aird splits occur and wild and woolly times are experienced THE STATE CONVENTION It is admitted by all people that Lou isyille is the logical convention city Why then should the Democratic State Convention be held in another city If the movement against Louis yille is inaugurated because somebody wants to get even with somebody the Democratic Committee willif it has the interest of the party at heart put its foot upon this thing that would worm its way into the Democratic heart and destroy the party President Roosevelt in his message of yesterday declares against black listing In 1896 the Democratic plat form was plainspoken against this evil and denounced the practice as un justand cruel Mr Roosevelt is learn ing the lesson of Democracy slowly tis true but surely But it is plain at least to the laboring classes of the country that it ought not require twelve years ofstudy to learn that the scheme of blacklisting is a nefarious one If selfish politicians do not dominate the Democratic State convention Ken tucky will crive 25000 majority for Bryan next fall CHEERFUL WORDS SHOULD BE SPOKEN FREQUENTLY Says Mrr Cocanougher He Grows Sentimental When He Writes of Spring and the Young Mans Fancy Lightly Turns to Thoughts of LoveSomething About Hidden Gold Attends Church In Marion t On the third Sunday we went over to PlOasantiillchurch Marion county to hear Pastor H P Hatchett and wor ship with these brethren The preachers text is found in the 14 chapter 2 verse of St John Inv my Fathers house are many mansion He told us that all things earthly change and de cay that after twentyfive years he CounItycomforted his sorrowing diciples with the language ot the text When in sor row we need sympathy speak to and encourage the living Gods way was so far above their ways that His diciples could not understand Him They had forsaken all to follow Him and all pwer is subject unto Him yet he must die but He conquered the tomb No place like home when iu the Far West the speakers mind turned back to his Kentucky hone Our homes must change yet it is a joy to think ot home Wipe your tears away The heavenly home is a mansion The sa red are at home and waiting for friends and we often become anxious to go home but first in that heavenly home we want to meet Jesus which is worth all When saints die all heaven rejoices That city is of pure gold and a pure stream flows through that heaven ly land and no sickness and tears therp but all is health and happiness Re member he told us too that God is calling us home and the Savior said I go to prepare a place for you The service throughout was a very pleasant and profitable one and we left feeling we had a mansion not made with hands eternal and in the heaverfs Bro Hatchett will preach at Long Run school house on next Saturday night Those of us who well and in health should be ohsp grateful This thought was seriously impressed upon us recently as we stood by the bedside of a friend who has for so many long years been confined to his room While we were trying to encourge him he with a helpless look and feelings almost too deep for utterance said I would give all my earthly possessions just to be well again and as he spoke tears clmeAs we looked upon his helpless condition we thought why should it be thus Is there not some power some where that can loose him from his bonds and let him go Is there no balm in Gilead is there no physician there Mustlie remain in this condi tion But there are so many things ve cannot understand but we must help the afflicted for blessed are the merci ful for they shall obtain mercy Let us be thoughtful and kind for oh how helpful we can be what a great conso ation one can be to a poor discouraged one Then too cheerful words are so cheap They cost so little its a wonder we do not use them oftener A little daughter of a friend of ours after her return home used to kneel down by the bedside of her afflicted mother and in a kind encouraging way tell her what she saw heard and did whileshe was gone and how the countenance and heart of the sick mother would be cheered up We can undergo almost any affliction if we have kind helpful ones to stand at our side for no one can very long stand alone the conflicts of life are to much for him We believe that is the reason so many people do so much and can undergo so many trials j dicourIagedyour drooping hearts Remember your many fnends who are all about and cannot well do without you and aI kind merciful Savior is so ever near yolT ready to help and remember your work on earth is not as yet done You have a place that no one else carvfill a work that no one except yourself can do and you are worth to someone a million yetiPoets may write and we may sing about the beauty and loveliness of spring but itseems as if this one fair ly surpasses all others far it is at least jweeks in advance and it deems eeI t 4 df as if there is so much of it Nature has exerted herself into unusual activity and with an extravagant hand has just poured beautv all around The fields were never so green grass is every where the forest trees and groves of the fields are sending forth such dark foliage the flower bearing shrubs seem to vie with each other in their effort to charm the so often dull senses of man Even the homely dogwood tree seems to have caught this riotous spirit and is ladenwitqsuch a profusion of flowers that the deepening shades of the silent forest are all interspersed and lit up with its nowy bloom The cackle o- fte guineajien seems to have a fuller deeper meaning for only the other day as we drove in home we heard those familiar notes On going over in the edge of the woods we found her nest undera log at the roots of a beech tree with just twenty eggs in it Little Lil lie May says the guinea hen can count six so it is advisable to leave that number of eggsm her nest Maywe top from nature around us catch up the spirit of the season and scatter cheerfulness everywhere and keep springtime in our hearts About one half mile South of Jenson ton on Stone Lick maybe fouVd on the farm of Mr W H Milburn on a hfilside large rpck of the soapstone variety which seems to have in the long ago been planted some two feet in the ground by human hands in a perpendicular position with some wo and ahalf feet above the ground which position is in a long square the edges of which appear to have been chiseled smocfthly with a deep notch cut in the top center The supposition has for long years been that it was put there by Indians or some eccentrichite man To indicate the place of a buried treas sure a man of the community says A small rock stood near upon which was carved a hand with the index finger as is supposed pointing towards the hid den gold and upon which was cut some small letters It seems as if a darkcy by the name of Geo Yates of Gravel Switch wandered up North and told a certain man of the rock Tfie two in the summer of 1906 came to the spot but before beginning operations could not agree upon the division of the pros pective find and left without working the claim But still later the Northern man told a man who is named Chas A Worden of Dayton Ohio So on Tues day of last week W rden put in his appearance and after finding the snot and getting permission to work he went to digging which caused considerable ex ciiempnt in Lhc community He had with him what seemed to be a very fine instrument called Jacobs rod which he said co t one hundred dollars With this he locates gold silver and iron on the same principle a waterwitch finds water and with this rod located the gold about tWJmtyfeet from the large rock but after four days of fruitless search he abandoned the enterprise and on last Sunday morning started for his Northern home Worden claims to have found with the aid of an instrument seventeen thousand dollars in gold down in Mississippi that was hidden there during the civil war Democrats Amused Louisville Times Democrats are con siderably amused over the charges and countercharges which the Republicans of Louisvalle forming the God and mo rality party are now making against each other V In their oSvn newspapers both the Fairbanks and Taft men accuse each other of gross frauds Administration tickets to deceive thin paper red ink fake tellers bogus ballots police interference privileges for Taft men and threats of arrest for Fairbanks suppqrters are the cries that fill the air I Democrats declare that notwith standing that the delegates selected to day are to nomina a Congressman and that the conventions are in reality ward primaries the Republicans are to vote today without ant restrictions of the law surrounding No offense ltnittef at the polling places today is punishable by law under the State election or primary statutes They say men can wander all oyer the city and can vote at their own sweet will destroy ballots or boxes count as they please and according to the call of the Governing Committee of the party in this district such persons would commit no offense against the State primary orelection laws Of course the Taft men have the po lice andCan order the arrest of whomsoever they please but the Fairbanks men say if any arrests are made there will be no Taft men put behind the bars Democrats say the whole plan Is the most nefarious ever attempted in hs district They say that many a charge was made against the socalled Democratic machine bt as one Democrat 9orback behind the ears had they been called upon to present such an oppor tunity for political corruption as the indescribable thing which the Repub licans the monitors of I wand order and purity in politics are going to pull off today STEPHEN A BAYNE One of the Countys

INVISIBLE ICHOIRBy Broughton Brandenburg i11111rf11Copyright She was waiting for me when I got down to the office that morning Iv remember it was a Monday late In May and my stenographer had nptar rived In her place beside the door Iaid not see her immediately and only her trembling efforts to rise at i phmoreisnowy hair pallid face and deepsunk i eyes all in relief from a severe black dress it would be difficult to imag Ine and I confess that I started the- Y merest trifle as she came forward out herrthin hands extended toward meSi I hope this is Mr Lawrence Rand she said in a low eager voice No madam these are Mr Rands offices and I am Mr Duncan one of his partners 4 I am Mrs Dwight Stokes Coleman and it is concerning a most important and peculiar matter which hris to do with my husband Dr Coleman the pastor of the Fifth Avenue Disciples MrnRand I must have help at once or I shall go mad myself My family physi i clan Dr Bowles in Seveilt second street came to us at our request yes t terday afternoon and recommended me to Mr Rand He says that it is a matsr ter outside the bounds of any profes eion except Mr Rands which seems to be the rendering commonplace of things apparently most extraordinary Perhaps if you state the caSe I may be able to assist you and I can at least restate it to Mr Rand on his return from Boston tomorrowIHe will not be The note of disappointment in her voice was so Intense that I was L touched for the tears were constantly welling to her eyes and she could scarcely steady her voice as she wen on to relate her trouble Relieved of her indirection of state ment and put in the proper proportion A her story was as follows A most mya terious circumstance was weighing so heavily on her husbands mind that she feared he was about to lose his reason if it was not already impaired He bad obtained a metropolitan parish only that year was overcoming some bit ter opposition among his church members and was completing the last vol nine pf an important historical work Altogether he was at the critical poin- oL his career and with two sons and two daughters not yet out of college everything was at stake On Sunday the 14th of April a few minutes after he had begun his morn ing sermon he heard distinctly a choir singing an anthem Be thought It a trifle unusual there being no church in the neighborhood from which the music could come with such clearness Themusic was very good and after the iservice he mentioned It to the organist who sat in the organ loft immediately behind the puipit The organist was certain that he had heard no nort been a sound to interrupt the sermon yand1estioned the members of the choir All were positive that they had heard no singing A horrible fear struck a chill to the old clergymans heart Was his mind giving way Were the anthem and the unseen choir th first hallucination the harbinger o coming mental confusion and the first sign of the horrible night of the mind On several succeeding Sundays the same mysterious music was heard by the doctor but by no one else and he was now on the verge of nervous pros tration I assured Mrs Coleman we would take up the matter immediately wired Rand to insure his return and gave him a detailed account of the whole affair when he came in Tuesday night Bright and early on Wednesday morning we were at Dr Coleman house In going over the case again however we found nothing to be in any way different from the facts al ready in hand except that although the voices were always the same the music was different each time With a note from the pastor to the sexton went to the church at 11 oclock 4and posing as an interior decorators estimate clerks we slowly inspected every inch of the Interior It was four oclock in the afternoon when we left and all that we had found can be told tn a few words s The church more than 30 years old was deadly commonplace in its de tails It had plain old pews wide and heavy an oldfashioned organ and loft in front of which extended a semicircular rostrum wIth steps at the right side a reading desk at the front edge of the rostrum and behind It the usual shelf shaped sounding board The fittings around the pul pit were all very plain and simple al though rich in their massiveness s V The only really new things were these the furnace heating appliances f had been changed to steam heat and the gas flxtpres to electric wiring and lights tired disgusted and quite readywto believe the old clergyman mentally unbalanced Rand waS bit terly determined to go on Said he Duncan I am going to fly in the face of facts In this matter F Purpose to hunt for the impossible Kind ly arrange to have the Gallahan agency send me 50 men at the studio to tmorrowmornlng to gather data on all eri t 1didof see Rand that evening It fact I did not catch a glimpse of him till Saturday evening Then he was white Worn tired and plainly unsuccessful ks he came into the club din ingroom where I was awaiting him and sat down opposite me with a faint brief smile Rand itoyed with the table silver a moment before he spoke then he said curtly Will you go with me to the Disciples church tomorrow morning I ask this because I have written Dr Coleman a note saying that it will be necessary for me to- go into the pulpit with him and I want you to sit in the first row I burst into a hearty laugh at the idea of Rands posing as a clergyman but neither the ethical nor humorous ases of the situation seemed to him The next morning Rand appeared In church in clerical garb The strIck- en clergyman his white head bowed on his hand as he leaned on the arm of his chair never looked up after pre Rand as Rev Dr Carleton mith of Chicago who would read the morning lesson From my seat In the first pew perhaps 20 feet fromthe exact spot where the speaker was standing I could observe every movement that both he and Rand might make lt wad fully 15 minutes before any thing unusual occurred Suddenly the old clergyman s voice took on a rasping note = an inarticulate cry of agony and des peration He went on speaking me chanically with his eyes closed Rand sat motionless but with the manner of a tiger about to spring He was lis tening and I could tell from his face that he also Was hearing what was beating I in Dr Colemans earsthe rolling anthem of the unseen singers As for me I could not catch the faintestsound beyond a low eonf ed murmur Rand removed the m ro Which he always carried for magnifying sounds once or tyice after a few seconds then quietly drew some sheets apparently a small set of notes from life pocket found some thing folded the pages and instantly was lost in the most profound thought Dr Coleman was staggering struggling trough his address I stood ready to rush to catch him should he reel and fall forward from the pulpit There were evident signs of deep concern for him in the congregation Perhaps it was only two minutes but it seemed an hour that this situation held Then Rand rising unobtrusively reached forward and turned off the desk light A moment later a look of relief came over the old clergymans face He opened his eyes paused a thent60 seconds I knew from the hand to his ear that he was still listening Then be turned on the light grace more andagain listened He next said something In a low voice to Dr Cole man arid settling back comfortably folded his arms and listened to the sermon Ilat his ease He had solved the mystery How I endured the halfhour till Rand and I were walking down the avenue arm fn arm with the happy old clergyman I do not know Dr Colemanand he had already had some explanatory words together for the first thing I heard was But m y dear Mr Rand how did ou make so wonderful a discovery can hardly realize it is a mystery no longer It was really very simple after all Dr Coleman replied Rand Through the Callahan men I col lected in advance among other things everyfmicrophone I discerned that it was Pfeisters Ave Maria that was being sung somewhere this morning its echoes apparently audible to your ears alone From my indexed notes I found that the only church where this number was being sung was the Church of the Revelation on the West side a mile away a distance far too great of course for the natural conveyance of sound Instantly how ever it flashed over me that this was one of the old churches in which I had learned the old soundingboards of the Teleautic Company had been placed Here were the same music and the same soundingboardsbut no wiring had been put In 1 looked at the base of the soundingboard beside me No wiring was there now Yet there must bea connection There must be wires wireless reproduction being eminently absurd As I sat absorbed in thought I raised my eyes and enhanced ta see that the electric wires to the desk light ran over the top of the sout dtng board One chance in a million fa chance connection by the electric lighting company Rising I turned off the light as you may remember andthe music ceased to be audible I turned the light on and the Ave Maria could be beard to a close You were alone In hearing the faint soundwaves so clearly because your ears were in the exact focus of the radii of the soundingboard I no ticed yesterday that the other church services began at 1115 and I will guarantee without visiting the audi torium of the Church of the Revela placedtfiattf you were in the habit of keeping your desk light burning all through the service and if you stood just where ton preach you would hear the other sermon and all the rest of the music We visited the other church after lunch arid found all the details fitted Rands theory tb a nicety The mov ling of a plug In the Edison district plant one thirtysecond of an inch forever hushed the voices of the un seen singers

7 I 1OARD1NGHARUCOALtG MINING COMPANIES About Ten Per Cent of Annual Production Is Held in Reserve for Va rious ReasonsFuel Now Handled by Machinery i New York Storage facilities have been Increased by the anthracite min tng companies within the last five or ix years to an e tent that few people Jutsideof the coal business realize Recently 3 prominent engineer said that it was a conservative estimatet p put the reserve capacity at ten per cent of the annual production Strikes Interrupting production were largely responsible for the wide spread and rapid construction plants Where fuel can now be accumulated for a rainy day The object of the companies Is to render the coal supply steady to prevent the sudden fluctuations in the market which have been at certain pe Tiqds very embarrassing to the entire public A vast outlay of money has been made for the uptodate mechan operated plants which have l Sprung up on the Atlantic seaboard In the coal regions on the great lakes and along the lines of the railroads The result of the outlay will bea year round tranquillity in the coal trale as far as fuel famine is concerned The millions of dollars thus spent have added millions of tons to the total storage capacity Though the investment is one of the kind that in Itself brings in no return it hadto be made The growing demand and the possibility of future interrupt pns of mining made ample storage wit ab JItage otanthracite coal compared With Other branches of the Ware garded as comparatively unimportant Now nothing is more essential to a producing company than to have its Ample reserve a reserve which can be drawn upon at any moment for Vast quantities of fuel in case ofa strike or any other untoward circum stance When it is considered that the marketable output of anthracite Jast year was 67109293 ionsthe ex tent of a ten per cent reserve can1 be Appreciated Coal storage nowadays is a science like mining Itself It has its own pe culiar conditions its experts its in ventions No longer is coal dumped from a car by the crude oldfashioned methods and loaded into another car f oIthe same crude way Electricity arad steam have come into play here as nearly everywhere else The days work is measured in thousands pf ltns the years in millions P t Storage plants represent a large part s6f the capitalization orcoal com Panles The fact that they bring no direct profit in themselves cannot de lay their construction They are a necessity of modern industry The machinery with which they ate equipped though enormously costly is as necessary these days as the storage piles It anthracite produc tion continues to In rease as it las increased in past years more and more capital will be required to be put into storage plants As anthracite and bituminous coal differ in chemical composition and in the manner of their mining so they are yery differently stored As a rule bituminous coal is stored by the consumer or by some middleman Anthracite on the other hand has to be stored by the producing company This Is due in part to the fluctuation in the demand for the several sizes of the hard coal Bituminous coal must be stored in piles mot more than 35 feet to avpid the danger of spontaneo combustion Anthracite can be stored in much deeper piles It can be handled with bucket conveyors and other similar implements on account of its hardness but it must be sd- NSndled that excessive breakage will not result Breakage is a most important consideration in the anthracite industry be ause the smaller the coal the lower the price Every piece of coal that breaks means so muchj transferred from a superior to an Ini ferior variety A coal storage plant that presents the modern state pf the science Is the Lehigh Valley Coal Companys news oneat South

specifying these evidences beginning with the words he had spoken the wonderful parables the beatitudes the model payer the ser mona the private conversations words so gracious wiseand powerful that

almost certain fate of starvation if the 1908 cro be eliminated who two or three win rs ago actually charged his tenant fo pasturing a hen on his premises during the winter Now does anyone for a

as mentioned in the beginning of this letter Ican only judge bya comparison of the fertility of the soil etc in those counties with that of this county Fleming which would favor a better yield in said coun ties and the tenants condition should be correspondingly better J In a growers article in your issueof March 26 he says Should the Equity tobacco all be sold at fifteen cents and the be such tiasers etc tthe grower will not realize more than eight and a half or nine cents Granting such to be true for the sake of argument for such is the only way I would grant it as I do not believe the expense everything c nsid ered wIt amount to anything like that am unthe is still ahead about two dollars over what he would have re ceived had the Equity or pool never ex isted and in addition we independent ngrowersper 100 pounds on the 1907 crop and 1 oonfutantvictory in the history oLthe country has been wdjithat of the tobacco grower over the Tobacco Trust This tgrowerin the society who will take the adyan tage of the growers In answer to the last assertion I will say no man ever saw anything on so large a scale as this movement among the tobacco growers that was perfected in so short a time as it has been before kthebacco is all sold and by the settlement with the growers such a state of affairs is found to exist then let each and every grower independent and Equity in the White Burley district come out to their respective precinfcts and join in organizing a society and putting in as officials of such the very best men the country affords of which I think the present society has a great number then when such has been accomplished let us all growers to a man stand by5 those officials withno scabs or dumpers like we independent growers haye been in the ranks to cause the trouble experienced by the present so iety offi daIs Speaking for myself asan independent grower as I am not in the Equity or pool I do not see how I could de sire to raise a crop this year and there by break down the man in the pool that has made possible the good prices I re ceived fox my 1906 and 1907 crops For instance I sold and delivered to the American Tobacco Company a few weeks ago 38000 pounds of tobacco that brought me more that did 60000 pounds I sold in 1905 or 53000 pounds 1 sold in 1906 What brought about such a price as this Certainly there can be but one answer the pool and it is a clear case that I was bdnefited to the extent of one thousand dollars by the existence of the pool in the price I received for this one crop not saying anything about the benefit I received in the sale of the 1906 crop Yet Lfeel that by the statutory law I have a right to do as I please with that which belongs to me and a perfect right to raise a crop of tobacco this year if I want to but by a higher and more just law of Gods and the golden rule Do unto others as you would have them do unto you I have no right to raise a crop this year and I shall not want to until I see my fellowmen in the pool pla ed upon an equal footing with myself by selling his to bacco at the Equity price I think the best lay to bring about peaceful solution ot the present deplor able state of affairs would be for people to quit talking and writing newspaper articles only calculated to create strife and bitterness go home to their farms and get busy at something other than liaising tobacco and they would be surprised to see how quickly peace would be restored how much easIer their conscience would feel and how few tenants would starve to death be fore the 1909 crop of tobacco was grown
