FROM DOWN THE ROAD.

Regular correspondence
Quite number from here went to Flat
woods Sunday,
Mrs. Iona McMackin of Hollow Rock
is visiting in this community.
Farmers are taking advantage of the
fine weather for planting corn.
To relieve the mind of the FlatwQOds
correspondent as to my hiding behind the
minister, will state that in bind hunt
l stand by his side and not behind him.
AS to George T, Angell. l don'tknow that
he has any more sense than our CORE.
spOndent thinks he has. AS to the mock
ing bird, never killed one in my life.
We presume he has made a trip to the
department of agriculture and he comes
back scared nearly to death and saws we
will die of starvation in ten years if we
kill few quail,
We don't deny holding the pillow ham
dies, and if he would let the agricultural
department alone and follow mule as
closely as do he wouldn't think of starry
ing il his neighbor had bird pie.
Even the mother birds have more sense
than he has, for he would have them
make nests by every stump, but the birds
know just how many his fields will sup
port and they are not going TO hatch little
ones to starve they think he had as well
starve as they, and so do 1, for he is not
good for food and, they are.
Ineyer saw a better prospect for good
crop of BIRDS l see them, mating and
looking over the fields. and if they are
successful he will see what my prayer. il
this fall when the season comes again.
Now, am out of this bird discussion
if agreeable with you; if not, anything
you may say will be beneath my notice

ME. Editor.

Mr. Editor:
Iwrite few lines to inform your manv
readers that l am in 1.-THE land OF prom,
ise." Cotton is the main crop here, bat
there are a variety of soils, light and gray
land suitable for grazing, medium light
land, rolling, easily cultivated, and pro-
duces / bale of cotton, 40 bushels of corn
and 40 to 60 bushels Of oats to the acre.
Vegetables do we'll.
My brother-in-law and his son-in-law
are cnltivating so acres of the latter vari-
ETY. of land, one-third in cotton and the
remainder in corn, etc. Corn looks fine,
plowed once and thinned Cotton plant
ing about complete, FIRST planting chop
ped and plowed,
This is considered a timbered country.
Fl am living near the south boundary of
this (Lamar) county near the Delta line.
Indeed, this black land will produce one
and half bales of cotton per acre. AL
falfa and clover grow well, and they cut
three crops year.
Cotton picking is worth from 70 cents
to 81 per hundred, and lasts from Septem-
Der until planting time in the spring.
There has been so much rain here since
work time that crops are late and foul
The people are as busy as can be. They
hustle from $50 a. m. until late in the
evening, and they have to work the cot
ton all summer to keep down the weeds
and grass. 7. B. HERmN.

lion, and so long as human nature
remains human nature the delega-
ton Of such plenipotentiary power
TO a commission composed of few
favored individuals is bound 10 re-
suit in corruption.
ut is folly to plead the high
character of the present commits
sion. It's membersmay all be dead
in a month. As a general propo-
sition, it is evident that the best
men in the United States are not
going TO forsake their homes and
their business interests and 60 to
the Philippines to administer the
affairs of the islands. The men
who seek these positions will be
the usual class of place hunters
who regularly besiege the Presi-
dent for positions which carry
handsome salaries. The passage
of this bill will inevitably result in
scandals from which the fair name
Of the United States will long suf-
fer"
All last week in the Senate was
spent in debating the Philippine
bill and the prospects are that all
this week will be spent in this way.
The Democratic Senators feel that
they will be derelict in their duty
if they do not completely expose to
the public the situation in the is
lands and the probable results of
the Republican policy which is .un-
American in, every detail.

PHILIPPINE COMMISSION BILL.

"The bill reported by the Phil
ippine committee is one of the most
iniquitous measures ever presented
to a Congressof the United States"
said Senator Dndois of Idaho, in an
interview Saturday.
"By the provisions of the bill,".
said Senator Dubois, ga commits
sion, composed of three men, is CIV
en- the most absolute powers over
the Flipinos and their lands. The
edicts of the commission will be-
come laws unless they are mega,
atively acted upon by Congress,
and, even if Congress had the time,
it would be impossible for it to
judge of these edicts at this dis
lance, 5000 miles away.
"TAese. three men can grant fran
chises to whomeyer they see fit and
require in return for the same such
compensation or nc. compensation
as they choose.
"They can lease land in immense
tracts to corporations for whatever
rental they desire.
"They can grant the privilege of
cutting timber to such corporations
as they may choose to befriend and
on such terms as they may be dis
posed to make.
"It is, ridiculous to say that the
Democrats are opposing a step to-
wards the self-gOvernment to which
they believe the Filipinos are en-
titled, The Democrats are doing
all in their power to. save the Pill
pinOs from being delivered to an
oligarchy which can sell them
body and soul from whose actions
they have, no redress, from, a des-
potic government in, which they
have absolutely no voice,
"a careful reading Of the Philip
pine bill will convince any intelli
gent person that the Philippine
commission, should the bill become
a law, would have powers that are
to-day possessed by no European
ruler save, perhaps, the Russian
Gar.

STRIKE m AUGUSTA NEARING END.
National Labor Organization Fail.
to Keep Promises to Local
Strikers.

Augusta, May 1.-The board of di-
.rectors and officers of four Augusta
mills, with the superintendents Of each
mill, and committee from the
strikers, held conference TO-DAY to
discuss the grievances of the King
mill operatives, but nothing has been
done yet. The conference has not
finished and will be taken up again
tomorrow. The King mill officers say
they are ready and willing to adjust any
grievances if the operatives prove they
really have grievances.
An undercurrent has developed in
circles of the strikers on account of
the promised 81. per week not being
distributed. Up to Monday of this
week the national organization owed
the strikers So, 400 and have on hand
only about $500. For this reason COM
missaries were established yesterday
and Is per cent. IN produce given the
adults and so per cent. to children.
Men Of families are taking the pro-
visions but single operatives who
board are raising q big kick and many
refuse to take provisions The pros
.pect is now much better for a settle
ment than at any time since the strike.

The Chicago and Northwestern Rail
way some time ago instituted series
of startling reforms One Of them was
that all brakemen and conductors
should be suaye and courteous even to
passengers who asked the same ques-
tion on an average of ten times to the
running mile. Then came an edict
that whistle was to be known as an
audible signal'' and side track as
an auxiliary. Now comes the cli-
max. All trunks handled by the bag
.gagemen of this system are to be car
r;ed in the natural position, and not
chucked up on one end and thrown
across the baggage room. They are to
be deposited on truck bottomed with
felt pad and gently transported to
or from the baggage car:
We hardly expect to live to see the
finish Of the baggage smasher. Now
if some philanthropic corporation will
devise means for abolishing the Pull
man porter travel will be robbed of
half its terrors.
