A 1915 New Republic article on tenant farming and financial control of the cotton economy in the South. It draws on Joseph T. Holleman and federal commission figures for Georgia and Texas to argue that absentee landlords and local merchant-bankers impose the single-crop cotton system. It ends with proposed remedies, citing Texas under Governor Ferguson, state banking ideas and the Federal Reserve Act. It has no weaving content.
