Senatorial Convention.

Senatorial district, composed
of the counties Of Benton,
Decatur, Hardeman, Hardin
and McNairy, met at Selmer
Thursday, August 18th, for
the purpose of. nominating a
candidate for the State Sem
ate.
The convention organized
by the election of Hon. d.
A. McDougal chairman, 0.
L. Barlow secretary, and W.
K. Alternately assistant sec
rotary.
The usual committees were
appointed and reported.
The basis Of representation
was fixed as follows: Benton
Il votes, Decatur 9, Harde-
man 20, Hardin II, McNalry
IA.
After considerable discus
sion, and over the protest Of
Hardeman and a part of Har-
din, the two-thirds rule was
adopted.
The temporary organiza-
ton was made permanent and
the chair declared nomina-
tions in order.
Captain j. G. Jackson, OF
HARDENING was placed in
nomination by Hon. A. j.
Coates.
Hon. w. R. Tuten, of De-
catur, was placed in nomina-
ton by Hon. Dorsey Hudson.
The first ballot resulted 80
votes for jackson and 81 for
Tuten. Hardeman and Nc
Marry voted solidly for Jack
son and Hardin gave him four
votes, Benton, Decatur and
the remainder of Hardin's
vote going to Tuten.
For several hundred bal
lots the result was unchang-
ed, and it was evident that a
deadlock was on.
After considerable ballot
ing the name of Tuten was
withdrawn and G. l.. Smith,
of Hardin, was nominated.
This made a slight change in
the result, Smith receiving
80 votes and Jackson 81.
Smith was soon dropped
and the name Of Edgar Cher
ry, of Hardin, was presented.
The vote stood the same as
between Smith and Jackson,
Cherry IS, Jackson "a.
Cherry's name was then
withdrawn and the vote of
Benton, Decatur and part of
Hardin went back to Tuten,
with identically the same re-
suit as on the first ballot
jackson 80, Tuten 81.
Cherry's name was brought
forward the second time and
the last ballot showed, |
Cherry 35, jackson "a.
A motion was made to
move the convention to Cam
den.
The point of order was
raised by A. j. Coates that
inasmuch as the convention
had been regularly called by
the chairman of the Senate
rial Committee to sit at Sell
mer, it was not within the
power OF the convention to
change its place of meeting.
The chair sustained the
point.
At the night session, Fri
day, motion was made to move
the convention to Savannah
and fixed the date September p,
9th.
The chair ruled the same i
as on the previous motion, !
but an appeal was taken from I

A Dangerous Month.

This is the month of coughs, colds and acute catarrh. Do you catch cold easily? Find yourself hoarse, with tickling in your throat and an annoying cough at night? Then, you should always have handy, a bottle of Ballard 8 Horehound Syrup. J. A. An derson, 354 West 9th St. Salt Lake. City, writes: I've use Ballard's Horehound Syurp for coughs and colds. It gives im- mediate relief. We know it's the best remedy for these troubles. I write this to induce other people to try this pleasant and efficient remedy" 25c, 50c and S1.O0 at Dr. F. R. Morro WIS.

ACCORDING to Rev. Irl R. Hicks, the great weather fore caster, this coming winter is to be a record breaker from start tc finish. The prediction is: Rain. snow, sleet, stiff cold weather and blizzards galore. That. however, need not cause any uneasiness, as all prognostica tions are slightly susceptible of notifications, and this may prove to be one of them. It would be well enough, however, to lay in a supply of fuel and reading matter-warmth for the body and pabulum for thought, so that in case you can't get around al night to discuss the Give issues with the boys, you could while away the long hours by reading THE TRIBUNE and other choice literature.

SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE has been campaigning in the west in the interest of politics, and he says on his return to Washington that ''the farmers have got 80 much money they don't know what to do with it. Enough to move crops comfort- ably? Yes, and they don't need any help. Just think of it.! A balance of trade of S27 ,O00,O ,O00 in the last five years, of which 65 per cent has gone to the farmers. It's one of the greatest problems what they are to do with their money" If these were Carroll county farmers it would not take them long to find out.

STAND by your town, says an exchange. Not a dollar is in : vested there but some good comes of it. There is no family like one's own, nor any wife like one's own wife; there should be no town like one's own town, where we live and educate our children, on whose streets our babies play, and where we may someday sleep. Let the newspa- per stand by the town and let the people stand by the newspaper and let us al. make our homes as famous as possible. Until we do this, and all pull together, with brotherly love, you will never have a town worthy of notice-socially, religiously or financially.

THE railroads are face to face with the greatest car and power, or engine, shortage in their his- tory. It is estimated by con seryative and expert traffic men that the cars which are now needed for transportation are fully 5O,O00 in excess of the supply. As the weeks go by the shortage will undoubtedly increase rather than decrease, until it reaches a point where every freight yard and every freighthouse in the country is blockaded with traffic awaiting transportation facilities. So bad has the situation become that sudden period of cold weather would almost paralyze the entire country. Realizing the danger of this, traffic and operating men are using almost superhuman efforts to relieve the situation, and are hoping against hope. The fact with respect to the transportation facilities of the country and the amount of traffic of every de- scription and class that is being offered to public carriers are startling in their significance, fol in the traffic of the country is mirrored a prosperity that is un- precedented.

WHEN business is a little slack why don't the business man take in his sign-on the same principle he ceases to advertise? In the first place, if he hauled his sign down it would be taken as grant, ed he had gone out of business. Reasoning on the same hypothe- sis, when he drops his ad, it is taken as conclusive evidence his stock has run down and former customers are enticed elsewhere.

 THE people of Green Forest, Ark, are about as wide awake as those of any other of the live towns. They have been boom- Ing their apples of late by the best methods, that is by making an exhibit of their best specimens at some of the notable gatherings, and the results have already compensated them for expense and trouble. Now a movement is on foot to organize company and put out 1000 acres to apples. The enterprise is in good hands and the location is highly favor able.-Practical Fruit Grower.

THE best citizens of any town are those who place it's interests and welfare above all party and personal prejudices.
