PEARsoN-cRAwFoRD CONTEST.

it utterly impossible to carry the State
for Mckinley.
PEARSON CRAWFORD CONTEST.
What are your ideas about the result
of the Pearson Crawford cOntest?'
In the first place / think it was a great
blunder on the part of the State conven-
ton to have made any mention of Pear
sons contest in the platform. 1t handi-
caps and burdens every Republican in the
State putting him on the defensive and
multiplying every effort that he might make
in denunciation of the present election
law. as it lays the Republican party liza
bic TO the charge that it has disfranchised
the majority of the voters of the Ninth
district.
II think now that every Republican who
has been an aspirant for Congress in that
district ought to decline the nominal
ton. and it ought to be forced upon Pear
son. that he and Crawford may fight
it out in November
"A further effect of the seating Of
Pearson will be the loss to the Republic
cans of number of small counties where
the majority is only few votes either
way. Especially where there is a close
will turn the scales in favor of the Demo
Gratis
RUSSELL CHANGED TWELVE VOTES
do you think Governor Russell's attack
on Pearson had any influence on the
House in its decision of the contest?"
Yes. it must have caused those twelve
Republicans not to vote. The fact that
they were not paired shows this. Had the
paper of Governor Russell been published
a week or ten days ago, so that the Re-
publican members could have familiarized
themselves with it, he would have been
beaten Many Republicans would either
have absented themselves from the House
or have voted directly against him
What influence do you think the fail
IRE of the convention to endorse Russell
and his subsequent attack on Pearson will
have on the present campaign and the
election in Augusta
Il think it will prevent Holton from ac-
cepting Simmons proposition for a joint
canvass. That interview in the hands of
Democratic speakers puts the Republicans
in an utterly indefensible position. Re-
publican speakers can only discuss on the
stump what they think the Democrats
will DO. while the Democrats can point to
what the Republicans have already done in
the Ninth district toward DISTINGUISHING
the white man"
"Linney also seems to have a knife up
lis sleeve for the Governor" it was
suggested.
Yes" replied Mr.. Harris but Lin
Eey ought to remember that for twenty
years after the organization of the Repub-
lican party in this State he was a leader
in the Democratic party. but during all
that time Governor Russell was a con-
sistent Republican. That is reply enough
TO Mr.. Linney."

orphan asylum. Why all this racket
about whipping bad boys?
Tho doctor throws down tho chal-
longe and says tho rod IN tho Scrip
lures merely means government, and
that tho very moment that you dele
gate TO u teacher tho right to whip q
child you Hing an insult In the face Of
God. Well, II everybody who knows
DR.. Holderby dident love him they
would smile at such ridiculous asser-
tions. He could hardly lind another
Biblical scholar but who would say
that the rod Ia tho Scripture means u
good old-fashioned licking, and 1t Is to
be remarked that whenever it Is
used 1t is in the masculine gender.
Correct thy son and he shall give thee
rest Beat him with the rod and
save his SOUL lie that spareth the
rod hateth his son." ETC., etc. The
girls dtdent need it then and they do
not now. They are all mild.e eyed Jer-
seys, except some.
DR.. Holderby declares that whipping
a boy Injuries his social standing and
takes away his self respect. Maybe
that is what's the matter with me, and
Is the reason why | am so meek and
subdued. Maybe | was whipped too
much. [ had fight one Sunday with
me and muddied my Sunday clothes
and gouged tho skin of my face. Next
morning my father whipped me for
fighting ana when | went to school the
teacher got ready to whip me-, but
showed him my legs and he let me OIL
Good gracious what q proud, self re-
spccting man | would haye been If it
had not been for good old John Norton
and DR.. Patterson. You see, | was not
u preachers son.
But, seriously, | know parents who
would rather the teacher would pun
ish their bad boys than to tackle them
at home. The school is their reforma-
tory, and with some mothers it is the
nursery. Then, again, there are par
ents who think the teacher ought to
whip other peoples children but never
touch their own. There are lots Of
these, especially mothers. The teach
ers have hard time steering between
the breakers, and am sorry for them
but have never known u single case
where the bad boy got more then he
deserved.
Long experience has proved that
corporal punishment is best for bad
men as we'll rs for bad boys. Crime
has rapidly Increased all over the land
under the new regime. The average
Of hoys are much worse than they were
fifty years ago. They grow up to fill
our prisons and chaingaAgs, and fill the
daily papers with murders and suicides
and crimes OF every description. The
Atlanta cry is now for q reformatOry.
Maryland has never abolished the
whipping post and not a burglary Or
bank robbery is committed there for
the punishment Is the lash once week
for successive weeks as the stripes are
healed. They cant stand that. Before
the civil war the lash was the only
punishment for the negroes, and there
was not heinous crime committed by
them from the Potomac to the RIO
Grande. But now there are ~ 600 in

COTTON SEED HULIS.

Only a few years back the compara-
tive value Of raw cotton seed, cot
ton seed hulls and cotton seed meal
for foodstuils or as a fertilizer, was
drbatablc question. There were those
who held that cotton seed hulls were
no better than so much saw dust for
food, and there were those who could
not see how it was that cotton seed
meal, from which one essential cle-
ment had been removed, could be as
valuable either for food or fertilizer as
the healthy raw seed.
But all these questions are settled
now to the satisfaction Of almost every
body. There are only few who re-
NAN unconvinccd, and these probably
have not yet completed satisfactory
tests. Anyhow, the use of cotton seed
meal and hulls which commenced a
few years ago in hundred pound lots,
has now developed into hundreds Of
tons, and this use is daily becoming
molc widespread.
The failure of forage crops last year
has had a great deal to do with cX-
tending the use Of cotton scel bulls
and meal in this immediate section.
Many have been forced from necessity
to try the experiment that had prcvl-
| ously given SO much satisfaction to
others, and it appears that the good
results are generally the same.
Speaking of the uso Of cotton seed
meal and hulls, in the presence of the
reporter few days ago, a prominent
citizen of Yorkvillc said: "Cotton
seed hulls alone are as good for cattle g,
especially dry cattle, as any kind Of
hay know Of. They will fattcn cat
tie and keep them in the best Of good
! order. IT mixed with meal, the ration
seems to be almost perfect, not only
as q fat producer; but also as a milk
and butter producer. l have hcald
also Of cases where il has been fed to
mules and horses with entire satisfac-
uon, and | know If to be a fact that
cows that have become accustomed to
eating raw cotton seed can be induced,
With difficulty, to 60 back to them after
they have been fed on hulls."
"A large dealer in hulls, who has
handled several hundred tons within
the past few months, says the demand
was never greater III this section than
now. He has hardly been able to
keep supply, so rapid has been the
consumption, and there has been a
considerable advance in price. Not q
great while back hulls could be had at
the mills for from ~ so to $500 per
tom Now they retail to consumers
for Sc per ton. 81 had customer
last fall" continued the dealer, "to
bring me 300 pounds of green cotton
seed, for which gave him $500 pounds
Of hulls and meal and $3.70 in cash.
| could not give him the same proper
ton now. Meal that sold for SIS last
year is now worth $25, and although
seed has advanced little, to 22 cents
for bushcl of 30 pounds, the advance
has not been quite 50 great in proper
ton.
Although it is an established fact
that as fertilizer, cotton seed meal is
almost without superior, il is fact
that so FAR this season q omparatively
small amount has been sold for that
purpose. Most of the meal that hae
been gong out up to tins time, has
been for feeding purposes Yorhcille
