W. H. Wilkinson died at his home
in jackson Thursday, after a long
and painful illness. Mr.. Wilkinson
was we'll and favorably known in this
county, hav ing moved from Georgia
to Brandon soon after the war between
the states. Soon after moving here
he married his distant relative, Miss
Lessie Wilkinson, who with two sons
and four daughters, all of jackson,
survive him. Mr.. Wilkinson was
one Of the old-time southern gentle
men, and lived largely in the past.
In every sense Of the word he was a
good man. He never did any person
an injury, knowingly, in his life.
His heart was in the right place at all
times, and nothing gave him greater
pleasure than to add to the pleasure
OF others. He was affable, sociable
and companionable, and there are a
host of friends who will grieve to
know that he has gone to his reward.
B. F. Mulhollan returned Thurs
day from Leggett, Texas, and brings
very distressing reports relative to
crop conditions in that part of the
country. He says that the old cotton
has large weed but no fruit, and
that in Polk county it will not
average 500 pounds of seed cotton to
the acre. The young cotton is being
destroyed by the boil weevil, which,
Mr.. Mulhollan declares, is the most
destructive pest he ever saw among
the weed, and that crop is almost |
total failure. The recent heavy
winds have blown the corn to the
ground, and not half crop will be
made. The boil weevil is said ia |
travel about forty miles year; they
will average six hundred eggs apiece
and silky per cent of that number
will produce small ones. The peo-
pie in that part of Texas have become |
discouraged at the outlook, and are
associations for the pur-
pose of inducing the citizens as a |
mass to abandon cotton entirely and |
engage In fruit growing. Uncle |
Dock also visited Will Lee at Living
ston while out there. Since his re-
turn home the entire town has been
destroyed by fire, save two small |

Despite the paralytic stroke which he
suffered week ago, and f.om which
he is now slowly recovering, Judge
George IL. Durand, of Flint, will re-
main the democratic candidate for
governor and will head his party's
ticket in the fall campaign. This de-
cision was arrived at Tuesday after
noon at u special meeting of the DEM
ocratlc state central committee held
here. l.. I. Durand, the Judges
brother. appeared before the commit
tee and made n detailed statement of
his brothers condition. He said that
the judges family had left it to him
to decide whether or not the Judges
name should be left on the ticket. All
things considered, Mr.. Durand said,
he did not feel like requesting that the
name be taken off. He left the matter
to the committee to act on as they
thought best after hearing OF Judge
Durand's condition. After short
secret session the committee adopted
resolutions declaring that Judge Du-
rand's name be left at the head of the
ticket. in view of the present encour-
agcmcnt for his speedy recovery. The
formal address accepting the nomina-
ton. which Judge Durand was to have
read to the committee, was read by his

SAVING In GOOD ROADS.
Figures to show Why the Entire
Country Should Have the Very
Best of Highways.

An Indiana engineer, has been esti.
mating the cost of transportation by
road and has produced a strong argu.
Gent for the very best roads.
He figures that the cost of moving
one ton by horse power over one mile
of dry, sandy road is cents; over
wet sand, 80 cents; over ruts and mud.
80 cents; over broken stone and ruts,
26 cents; over an earth road that is
dry and hard, IS cents; over broken
stone road in good condition, cents;
over compact gravel road, s.S cents;
over stone paving, 5.S3 cents; over
asphalt, 2.7 cents.
The engineer argues that if wagon
transportation at cost of five cents
a mile ton could be universal in this
country, many millions of dollars
would be saved, and millions of tons
of merchandise, which cannot now be
handled at profit would be available
in the markets.

One objection which seems to be
made to the more general use of
hurdles is the liability of their being
blown over. A writer in the Country
Gentleman submits illustrations of
hurdles. which, he says, offer less re-
sistance or are better fortified
against the effects of the wind.
