The meeting was held with closed odors, but the Courier learned that the meeting was field for the purpose of procuring and furnishing to the Cotton Association information as to the advisability of holding the cotton crop off the market for several months. No action was taken Saturday and the meeting adjourned to meet again at the meeting in the County Alliance which takes place on the 9th inst, at Shiloh, six miles north of town. The idea seemed to be pretty strongly held out by some of the delegates that they are able as an organization, to hold the cotton crop off the market. The farmers have found that the maxim “In unity is strength” is true, and are acting accordingly. The delegates to this meeting are some of the best informed, progressive and conservative men in the county and are not likely to make a mistake in deciding any matter that may come before them. The Riflemen held their first regular drill Saturday evening. The attendance was good, there being thirty-four members present. The boys handled their guns very nicely and were complimented by the bystanders on the success of their first drill. The next drill takes place on the fourth Saturday in October. The matrimonial fever has at last struck Lamar. We are promised several weddings before our next issue. But a glance at the records in the probate office shows that there will have to be as many marriages during the remaining three months as have been during the past nine, to keep up the record.
