Y'et the Constitution has been nulll-

I mean it. They Relieve I will en-

The maiiufacturers some years agoromblned their plants and capital, ao

that practically all of them weremerged into one siRantie eoucem.Thus eomj>etilion in bnyiiiR was de-

Rimjed. and the larniers had to sell

at their ».n«le purchaser's price, or

quit, l lu! result was that prices wer<»

reduciHl to less than the oost of pro.

duction. The losa eBtailcd om the

State was not less than twenty mil-

lions a year.

The larniers tried various ways ot

;;ettinK at the trouble to overcome if.

.\nti trust leKislailon was - enacted.

(k)nUitions remained the same. Final-

Ij. after great agitation and after sev-

eral tatUe attempts, the farmers orfcsn*1tf4 a aellUlg pool, whereby they

would be enabled to pn sent a single

seller as against a sin^cle buyer. Thntobacco trust f{t\i^;ht their efforts bit-

terly. They sought by every coiicelV'

able method to disrupt aod destroy

the farmers' pool.

The farmers had two crops in these

)>ools uncoM. 1906 and 11><>T. Thetrust was holding ov.t. refnsins to buy

to starve the farmtrs into a surren-

I At thia criets. -afanple In Its plain

and brief telling, but Intense In inter-

CF' and feeling at the time, a mob en-

tered this city and destroyed ware-

houses and other property. One or

more i>enii(ms were kflled in the

melee. tJpvernor Heckham ordered

troops to Hopkinsville to preserve the

public peace and protect life and prop-

erty.This was the situation when Gov

ernor Willson came into office. It

Avaa. indeed, a grave situation. Moretrouble and in other quarters wasfeared. How to wisely handle the

aituation waa a most difficult ques-

tlOB.

Qovemer Willaon Calfa Conference.

The Governor called a meeting oftobacco growers, insurance men andreprcscntatlvcK rf the tobacco trufct

at Frankfort, wh.ch convened in De-

cember of 19<'7. 1 understood it wasfor the purpose of conferring, to

'agree, if possible, upon tenns bywhich the trust would take over the

pooled tobacco at some satlafactory

price, and the farmers to tbeaabandon the threatened cut-out of the

crop, thereby relieving the tensesituation, when if \>a.s lM>lie\td noi*

mal conditions would be resumed.1 was present at this conference as

a spectator. There were probably five

bondred growers present, many of

^hom I knew personally, and knew toT-e ( itltens of the mc>t irreproachable< Imarter and standing. The trust

ed. The Insurance ('tunmissioner waspresent and acted as secretary of the

meeting.Tke tiovemor presided and ad-

dresaed the aieeting at length several

times. The comments at the morningsession had l>oen severe— not too se-

vere—against the night riders, andurged upon the growers Is cooperatewith the ofHoers of the law^ la direct-

ing and pualshliiv the lawless beadthat had destroyed property at Ho^kinsville.

I'nfortunately nothing occurred in-

dicating a purpose or prospect of th«

Interested partiea getting together ona baals of settling the pending ques-

tlea, which waa whether the trust

wotiM buy the tshsaeo the pool at

aay price.

JatfOS aRsar Called Upon to Speak.

At the afternoon session I was re

quested by the Insurance Commission-er to mak*» a spee<'h to the audience.

I declined ii|ion the cround that I hadnot thought out anything to sav. andfurihermore. being Chief Joctlce of

the State, It was perhaps of doubtful

propriety f^r in«» to say anything.

The matter was submitted to thoGovernor. 1 iisderstood him to contur in mj; views. At his request,

though. I |took a seat In the standnear him.

It seems now there must have beeqsome misunderstanding, for before I

waa aware of any change in the pro-

gram I heard the Governor present-

ing me to the meeting fOr an ad

drees. The Governor knew my vjca?

on the situation, for at htf Instarxe !

had had several conferences with hirs

ott the subjectT said In the 8pet''h that the Gov

emor was to be c.:niiueaded fcr hie

efforts to restore paice and to pro-

tect life and property, as "Aeli as Kbring to punishment tho vioUioi** o:

t Ue law. but I further said that <u i&j

aUc; that they reflected the feeling ot

resentment of numy grower? that they

had suffered long oppression and that

the law hsd not afforded them anyremedy; that the surest way to pro-

vent similar outbreaks was to removethe cause of them; that the growerscould not be conrlneed that they werenot being outrageously oppressed by

threats of punishment itiai you i ould

not pu«h an idea tliioii>;li an .\nKlo-

Sa\on'<( head with a l>Ayonei.

I said that it was lawlessness that

prmluced lawlessness; that the rvm-

edy for the growers was a resoK to

th.' Iiw : and that If the State woulduse its iMjwer also to punisli the law

Icr^ trust, there would t>e foundenough \iriMe in the l.i". of this fttate

to br.ng ade<iuate redress.

I did not criticise the Governor for

his efforis to suppress the lawless elo>

uient among the growers. But I did

sa> that all the growers were not law-

l,r«»akers. nor were they In «ynipathyw ith law les«;ii» ss : that the ^reat marjority of them were a peaceful, law-

abiding people, and that the welfareand good reputation of the State re-

quired It to protect Its peaceable citi-

zens in their rights and property, aswell as to protect the stranser within

om ; iies. 1 ur!;ed that both oneiiders,j

the trust and the nli;ht ri<lers. be

called to actount by the law

Stands by Every Word He Spoke.

I ih» not pn-auine to recall tlie

wordt<. but that Is the substance of

the speech. And U)>OB that reoord I

am willing lo stand.

Why aewapaper reports of the me«>f-

Ing were distorted, and sensational

comments made upon them, it is not

for me to hei.' aay. If, howev-T. anyopponent. IK'iiioerat or Uepiibllcan.

What 1 said and fried to brliu; about

was in line with rresideiit Kimse-

\elt's efforts In settling the great an*

ihraeite coal strike la Psaasyhraalashortly before that.

I believed that the termers had alawful right, and It was their patriotic

duty, if no other lawful way waa pre-

sented, to organize under the statutes

of this State, and to pool their cropsso aa to ^ei a reasonable prbe tor

them. Who denies it? I believe that

the trust was violating the law of this

State, If not of the ITnlted States,

n<anufacturers Into one concern so as

to reduce the cost price to them ot
