Col. Estin In North oeorsIa.

covington Star: Col. ]. II. EstIll of
Savannah spent two or three days at
Gainesville last week in the interest Of
his candidacy for Governor.
Court was in session, and he had a
good chance to see many North Geor-
gla people, and reports being greatly
encouraged by the outlook OF the gu
bernatorial situation in that section.
Col. Estill Is a quiet worker and Is
pushing his campaign In a quiet way.
He Is gaining strength IN every Sec

Joint Debates in Georgia.

Columbus Ledger: 1t Is rather re-
grettable that one of the candidates for
Governor should have proposed a se-
opposing candidates. There is hardly
any occasion for joint debates In Geor-
gia. especially at this time. Later in
the campaign, issues may arise which
may create an excuse, IL not neces-
sity, for joint debates.
Joint debates between candidates of
opposing parties are all well enough.
but the present political situation in
Georgia is such that we do not see
why Democrats should wish to disturb
the serenity Of things and stir up strife
by exciting debates which appeal to
the passions rather than to the reason
of the voters.
Under existing circumstances, cer-
tainly the leading candidate can have
no reason for desiring joint debates.
A candidate whose chances are slim
might wish something of the sort, i'm
the hope of gaining an advantage and
getting a hearing before the friends
of other candidates.
Col Estill has declared against Joint
debates in this campaign, and we do
not believe that Mr.. Terrell will favor
such methods, at present at least The
candidates are all Democrats well
known to the voters of the state. They
have ample time in which to get about
over the state and meet and talk with
the people. We would like to see each
one of them conduct his campaign in
his own way and let joint debates
alone, at least until issues arise that
Warrant public discussions by rival
candidates on the stump. The demand
from the people and not from the cam
didates, and surely the Democrats of
Georgia are not clamoring for anything
of the kind In this campaign.

Levee Prospects.

The Mississippi River Commission
meets in st. Louis, about May 24th,
and then allotments of money Will be
made TO the different levee companies
on the Mississippi from Cairo to New
Orleans for the work of 1902 The
chief engineer in charge of the leyee
will then advertise the contracts on each
levee according to the money allowed
him, for 80 days, and then award the
contracts, when work will begin.
Probably such work will commence
abont July LIST. Capt. Winslow, the
government engineer in charge, says
that whatever amount is allotted the
Hickman and Tiptonville Levee, he
will commence right-away, this year,
TO build the levee, and build as far as
the money allowed will permit We
hope that We will get the 100000 and
complete the entire work tins year. but
the expectations Of some is that it will
be given out in allotments of so much
each year for years.

The Irish Revolution.

ireland is now threatened with anoth-
er revolution. In truth IT has been a
long time to call back years when these
brave. generous, dissatisfied people,
were not IN the throes and excitement
of some agitation, but the impending
one promises to be bloodier than any
for many years. The last of this month
more than 10000 Irish tenants are to
be evicted from their homes, and the
Irish League, with more than lOOOOO
members and an accumulated fund OF
many thousands of dollars propose to
forcibly resist the British constables
and police when the work of eviction
is commenced. This will necessitate
the employment of British soldiers.
Both sides are organized and ready Tor
the fray. We suppose 1t will be the
same old story, over and over again, for
the past 100 years, some killed many
thrown in prison and the British
victorious.

An Indiana woman. whose husband

habltually beat and mistreated his
wife. The patient, long suffering wiie
resolved to even herself with her mean
husband, and so when he came home
drunk as usual and gave her the beat

until he fell into a dead, stupid. drunk
en- sleep. She got a pillow line, and
tied his hands, arms, feet and legs
securely, and then rolled him over and
out into the COW lot, where the COW was
always kept. She then sprinkled
bountlful quantities of salt all over his
clothing and person and the old COW
did the rest. The COW gave him such
a ,.lielxinsr shat ALI his skin was wow
off and salt enough rubbed into him to
cure him of wife beating. This Is q

Admiral Sampson Dead.

Rear Admiral William L. Sampson
died, in Washington City, Tuesday
evening last. after an illness extending
over many months. Admiral Sampson

At the beginning of the late war with
Spain he was promoted by the authori

the American fleet over the heads Of
many Older and good officers. At the
battle of Santiago, duty called Samp

GRASSLAND FLOGS THE RING
People Apparently With Him.

People Apparently With Him.
Hon. Sam. III. Grassland, a Demo.
cratic candidate for Congress addressed
a fairly good sized and representative
audience at the Court Houne, Tuesday
| His speech was we'll received and
literally interspersed with applause,
showing, at least. that large number
of those present heartily endorsed his
speech. His speech was altogether de-
voted to handling the work of the Dis
trict Committee, of seven of that Com
mittee, in manipulating the call for an
early primary election at the beck and
interest of his opponent, Mr.. James.
He charged that they constituted an
organized ring" of political tricksters.
knowingly defying and seeking to
thwart the will of the people as To a
fair opportunity to make their choice
for Congressman. He charged that
the Committee in tie interest of Mr..
James had laid down narrow. hide
bound policy as TO who should vote in
the primary, whereas in other Districts of
Kentucky, and throughout the country,
the party was persuing a liberal policy,
opening the doors, so that the party
could gain strength from honest men
everywhere. He argued that il was
the voters who were wronged by the
early primary, May oath, because it
deprived them the voters from hearing
questions at issue discussed by the
candidates, to the end that the people
might know what the candidates were
for and against. la ''snap primary

who might not represent the voice of
our people upon important ISSUES.
Besides, May oath. was time when
the farmers of the District were busy.
and not likely 10 90 10 the polls in force
to vote. In conclusion he urged The
people TO condemn these rings and
cIiques, and the only way to do so was
to go TO the polls on May oath.

1t is intimated that the debate on the

TO PLANT
SUGAR BEETS.
Several Crystal Falls Farmers
Will Raise Them for Me-
nominee Factory.

Iron county farmers are going into
raiisng sugar beets, on small scale,
bat they will try the business anyway
Over at Iron River the farmers are
quite interested while in Crystal Falls
a number have contracted 10 put in
from one to two acres OF beets next
year just 70 test the business Among
others II. j. McLaren and John Worden
will raise beets next year.
Supt L. NJ. Geismar of the Upper
Peninsula Experiment Station recently
delivered an able address on the sub
ject of THE Sugar Beet at Glad
stone and the following extracts from
the address will be of interest to Iron
county farmers as the salient points
are as applicable TO this county as they
are TO Delta comfy:
The sugar beet is the only crop which
the farmer can sell for cash before
even planting the seed It is not
affected by over production potatoes
may be worth 20, 30, 50 and IS cents
bnsrNr the better the crop, the cheaper
the price Not so with sugar beete
No matter now large the crop, the
price remains the same S4 80 for beets
testing l2 per cent sugar and for each
one per cent additional 32i cents
With ordinary. good care and culti-
vation, an acre Of beets in Delta
County will produce fifteen tons OF
beets testing 10 per cent. or -. s3
ton. a total of 500 per acre With
good soil and good care, 500 90 and
more will be realized from each acre.
Doesi il require more labor TO produce
an asre Of sugar beets than 10 produce
an acre Of other crops An acre Of hay
requires less labor; AN acre Of potatoes
properly cared for. requires more labor
The intelligent farmer, however, will
not figure the comparative amont Of
labor. except as related 20 the money
value of the crop. In other words
the farmer will realize that he is try
ing 10 harvest 20 many dollars from an
Acre. and not 20 many tons OF hay, or
30 many bushels Of potatoes. oats or
other grain.
Figuring the comparative crop Of
dollars per acre, it will be admitted
