1t is a matter of general graduation that
the power and influence of the lawyer
politician and the professional politician
are decidedly on the wane in this State.
The State Senate is made up almost en-
tirely of lawyer politicians, and though
they are making desperate effort to
maintain their ascendancy by trying to
nominate lawyers in those districts which
elect this year, they are being defeated
everywhere. The farmers are moving
against them in every district, and, if we
mistake not, have defeated them in every
one where primary elections have been
held. In this county, quite an exciting
contest has been going on for the nomina-
ton for State Senator, one of the contes-
tants being planter and the other law
yer. The indications now are that the
lawyer will be overwhelmingly defeated.
Taking everything into consideration,
we can't understand how any intelligent
farmer or workingman can be willing to
send any more lawyer politicians to the
Legislature. as- sH
