THE returns from the primaries held throughout the State are quite disappointing to Col. Fishbsck and his zealous supporters. To other people the result was very much as was expected. Where ever any at tention was paid to the request for an expression on the senatorial ques- tion, the vote was exceptionally light, whether cast for MT. Flshback or Mir. Jones. One of the principal objections to Mr. FIshback's propo- sitlon was that the people being tired of political agitation, would not take interest enough in the election to se- cure 8 fair expression. The indif- ference manifested fully sustains
 this objection aud confirms the pre-
 diction made on this score. The
 apathy was not confined te the sen atorial question exclusively, but to

THE state convention to nominate a successor to the lamented Justice Ssndels conyenes in Little Rock to
 day. Instructions seem pretty equally divided between Candidates
 Mansfield, Duvall and Sanders. The two first mentioned are neck and neck, with Sanders following closely. The outcome is merely problematic- al, inasmuch as there is every indi- cation of spirited three cornered contest. While we personally favor Nr. Mansfield and hope for his sue cess, if we are to believe all that has been sad of them, the State would get worthy judicial officer, if either of hls two opponents is nominated.

 of Russellville. They continued
 coming till there was scarcely stand

 to us, for we had not 90 much as
 dreamed of anything like it. We of

 come our guests, but it was all no
 use; they continued to come ln and
 around until we were actually press
 ed for room. We finally decided the

 Stay on the Farm Boys.


 Good morning boys. Happy New Year to you. Gusss you have had all the nice things "Old Santa Claus' could find for you. Mamma has done all in her power to add to your comfort and happiness. You have had rest from books and busi ness, recreation from the monstony of every day routine, your systems have recuperated from exhaustive exercises mentally and physically and you are your own selves again
 Now to books and businsss. Re turn with the determination to sue ceed. In whatever avocation of life you may be engaged, or that you are preparing to embark in, deserve success before you command it. If you desire the kindpess of others be kind. If you want to be honored be honorable. And always honor the aged. Be obedient to your parents to your teacher, to the laws of your country, and above all things reverence and obey the God who made you.
 Decide early in life what you will follow as 8 business. If you have . desire to farm or raise stock you arc fortunate. Cultivate that kind of ambition. Procure all the litera- ture you can upon the subject of farming and stock raising. Knowl- edge In farming is essential. To all those who are able 1 would advise a course in some agricultural college. Prof. Jas. B. Chamberland, Of the North Carolina Agricultural College at Raleigh, in advocating the educa cation of farmers sons st such an in stitution. says: All other profes sions have had their schools and col legss where the youth were taught valuable lessons in the principles which underlie their calling, while the greater Of them all has been langulshing under the curse of igno rance and darkness. Science comes to our aid and enables us to work intelligently. If ue can be benefit ted by acquiring knowledge in any calling in life, we can get it from understanding the principles under lying tho business of farming, es pecislly if taught in . practical way. Avsil yourselves of this new golden opportunity. Farming Is the most important as well as the most in occupation of all. The farmers have the most noble occupa tion of all. The life of the whole world depends upon the farmer. When the farm stops the mill stops, the merchant stops, railroading stops in fact every business fails, so boys If you want to engage Tn . business that there is no failure in when prop srly attended to, and a business too that every other business is based upon, take farming. It is the best Df all. If you love nature or tho beauties of nature which sxcels all others), it Is to be found In the coun- .ry, wherever there is nature there s besuty,and if you want to cultivate owe for beauty go forth into natures ,chool and there it will educate it 'elf amidst flowers ard fields among | he hills and by the babbllng brooks.
