WAY NOTES.
—
To The Newark .Journal:
May L'oth I came to Viola Hill
and preached at Fair View. This
is where I had my first religious
debate, when a mere boy in the
; ministry, but these people have
not forgotten me. I met Kid. S
L. Cochran, whom a number of
j your reader* know, a> lie was on
the circuit at Sulphur Rock some
years ago, I remained here and
preached until Monnay night.
Bro. Sam Ballard is the pastor at
this place, but he was not present
a* he had made arrangements to
preach at another place while the
missionary preached here. I had
not visited this church for 15 or
•JO years. There are not many
people here now that I used to
know. Some have died, others
have moved away, and those who
were children then, have grown
up and have families. Sunday,
May JJ, there was a large congre
gation. though the weather looked
threatning. It was their commun
ion day, so I gave them a sermon
on that subject, using my charts.
I preached again at night to a good
congregation.
I i»<‘t a number of old friends of
other days, but most of the bur
den bearers when I was here have
passed away, but they have left a
lot of young people who will take
their place both in church and
state.
Owing to the rain we had to
abandon the rest of our trip, so
Bro. Sherrell and I bid each other
good-bye, and each turned towards
home. I will say Bro. Sherrell is
a splendid co-laborer, and 1 have
I enjoyed his a-sociation very much.
1 came back by Franklin, got
my mother and brought her home
to spend a while with my family.
I also preached at Cave City on
my way home. This town is grow
ing rapidly. They have a fine
school and are building a splendid
school house. While there l form
ed the acquaintance of the editor
of the Cave City Progress.

GOVERNOR JEFF DAVIS UPHOLDS
THE FARMERS ORGANIZATIONS
Says Organization For Mutual Protection is Right,
and He Would Pardon any Farmer Convicted
of Violating the Anti-Trust Law.
The last issue of Farm and
Ranch, one of the best farmers-’
papers published in the South, con
tained the following article writ
ten by Governor Davis of Arkan
sas.
“Seeing that you are thoroughly
in sympathy with the great indus
trial fight that is being waged in
the interest of that class of our
citizenship who produce the wealth
of the world, namely, the farmers,
I thought that if you would spare
me the space in your paper, I
would like to commend your
course and to extend to the farm
ers of Texas greetings from Ark
ansas, and say to them that if they
will but stand steadfast in this
fight that a glorious victory is as
sured.
“I would not array one class of
citizens against another. We
need them all; we need the mer
chant, the banker, the lawyer, the
railroad magnate, but, above all,
we need the farmer, because he is
the producer of the wealth of the
world. He is the burden-bearer
of the world: he produces those
things we must all have, the things
upon which we all subsist, and I
know of no law, either legal or
moral, that would compel him to
produce these things for a less
sum than will return to him a
fair profit for his labor. This
tight that the farmer is engaged in
today, if successfully waged will
benefit us all, because if the man
at the bottom, who is the basic
rock, the foundation stone upon
which this republic is builded, is
prosperous and happy, then we
will all be prosperous and happy.
“Prosperity should not descend
from a favored few to the wretch
ed many, but it should ascend
from the lowest to the highest.
Then we will have prosperity in
deed, such as will bring profit and
blessings to mankind. The war
fare in which the farmer is engag
ed in today is a warfare to control
the price of his products. This
can only 1h» done by honest, con
secrated, intelligent organization;
organization not for {>olitieal pur
poses, not to destroy his brother,
but organization to control the
price of the things which the far
mer grows; which the farmer pro
duces. lie has a right to do this,
and if he does not do it he has no
;one to blame but himself.
OPENIN'!* OUN FIRE1) AT BOSTON.
“But we are told by one Theo
dore Price, of Boston, said to be
an eminent lawyer in the East, in
a recent address delivered by him
| there, that if the farmers of the
South combine to control the price
! of the products they raise, they
are violating the trust laws, es
j pecially in Arkansas.
“Mr. Editor, it is a little remark
able that the first gun tired oppos
ing the emancipation of the far
mer, the lifting of him from under
the burden of bondage, should be
fired at Boston, Mass. This is a
war for commercial emancipation,
this is a war for commercial liber
ty, this is a war not with flesh and
blood, not with shot and shell, but
I it is a war against Mammon: it i
a war against money, against soul
less merciless combinations; a war
that would grind the farmer and
his children into dust, and I say it
is a little remakable that the firs)
gun of opposition should be tired
at Boston, in that city where ir
former days another incident oc
j curred that led to the emancipa
, tion of the Anglo-Saxon race; that
' led to the establishment of this,
the greatest republic upon the faco
of the earth today. In Boston
some tea was thrown overboard,
the patriots rebelled against the
mother country, a war ensued,
and liberty followed.
“Mr. Price says that actual war,
that actual bloodshed will follow
any determined organization of
the farmers to emancipate them
selves. I pray God that this may
not happen.
\VOrr,I> KEEP PAKIM )N'S ON ICR.
“I know that the farmers of
Arkansas are not violating any
anti-trust law. Any lawyer knows
that for the fanners to agree to
plant less cotton this year than
they planted last year, or to not
gorge the markets, is not a trust,
and I have told them all over my
state that if they should become
I involved in trouble for transact
ions of this kind under our anti
trust law I would have a pardon
ion ice waiting for them, and I
mean it. In Arkansas we are in
this fight to win, and I trust that
Texas will help us. The South
has a monopoly given by God, by
i the god of nature, of the cotton
1 markets of the world, and she has
! foolishly allowed the other fellow
'to fix the prices. The trouble is
now that the farmer is determined
to fix the prices by diversifying
his crops, living at home, and rais
ing only a sufficient amount of cot
ton as will meet the law of supply
and demand, and marketing it in
such a way as to command the
highest prices obtainable. This i*
right, this is ligitimute, and no
valid objection can be urged to it.
PBOSPERIT Y THROITOII LEGISLATION.
“I used to think, Mr. Editor,
that prosperity could not he legis
lated into the country, but I am
sure now that this contention is
wrong. I am sure that if our con
gressmen and Senators had passed
the Hatch anti-option bill and
made gambling in the products of
the soil a felony, that there would
have been no war today between
the bulls and bears to control the
markets of the world. There
would have been no war today in
which fictitious cotton, grain and
meat is sold against the real pro
! ducts of the farm, thereby eontrol
ing the markets of the world.
And while I say to the farmer, do
I not engage in politics, yet I would
' say make your congressman and
your senators pass such a law as
this. When this shall have been,
done then the very life of this op
position and of this tight to control
the prices of the products of the
. farm will end, and without this
legislation the task is difficult.
"Arkansas sends greetings to
Texas; Arkansas wants to clasp
hands with her sister state, and
with our shoulders together and
our hearts in unison, let us neve:
cease fighting until this battle for
the good of mankind is won.”
Jeff Davis.
Governor of Arkansas.
