October is month for harvesting and
not much growth is expected but ma
turity is looked for in this month.
Some of our factories will start this
month, but from all appearances the
rolling will be of short duration though
it maybe profitable to them as the SUI
gar content of the canes, owing to the
early maturity, is quite large. Ton
mage will be light. The rice crop is
about saved some late paintings re-
main to be harvested, but the bulk of
the crop is safely harvested, shipped
and sold at prices very satisfactory, in
fact our rice planters are ON top
this year and are doing considerable
growing over their success in which
we join and only wish that all our
farmers could be equal y as fortunate.
But taken as a whole Iberia has done
very well in her agricultural interests
this year. 4 rigid economy and a
more intelligent, intensive farming
will give better results.

PRIMARY ELECTIONS AND THE
DUTY OF VOTERS.

For the first time in the history of
the Democratic party in this State, the
vorers have been given the opportu-
nifty Of selecting their own candidates
for State offices instead of the old
method of convention. This change
has has been brou ght about by shrewd
politicians and wire pullers generally
controlling the conventions and nomi-
mating men for State offices to further
their own ambitious schemes and con-
trolling the appointments for office,
without any regards to the wishes of
the voters, and in many instances
without regard to their qualifications
to discharge the duties required of
them. When party is as strong as
the Democratic party of this State,
when nomination is equivalent to
an election, it is safer for the party
and the people to give to them the
right Of voting for and selecting their
own candidates. This will CONSOLE
date and keep the party united, for no
candidate that is defeated could COM
plain if the voters did not want him
and preferred his opponent. This
throws a great responsibility on the
voter and every one of them should
turn out and vote and see that his
neighbors do the same for the men you
select will be certain to be elected at the
general election and be your officers
for the next term. They should also
see that the election is conducted fair
ly and honestly frowning down all at
tempts at cheating and favoritism.
Give each candidate fair chance and
none Of them will have any right to
Unfortunately most of the old lead
ers and manipulators of conventions
dislike to give up the old way by
which they have profited SO much. 1t
was the almost unanimous demand of !
the voters and it does look to me that |
they are doing everything in their |
power to make difficulties and throw
obstacles in the way of having fair, |
honest election. and by that means |
bring primaries into contempt and /
force the voters back into the con-
vention plan again. 1t is for this
reason they are placing all manner of
on the right to vote anda
throwing obstacles in the way of an
honest election. It is the duty of the
voters to frown down all such Mt
;empts. E. T. KING.

THE BLUE AND GRAY

Upon my bosom softly lies
not OF blue and gray.
Yon ask the whyr Tears fl. my eyes
As low TO you | say,

Warm hearted, bold and gay
They left my side-0He Irore the bIue
The other ,rorc the gray.
One rode with Stonewall and his men,
And joined his fate with Lee
The other followed Sherman march
Triumphant to the sea.
Both fought for what they decmed the riyht,
And died with sword in sand;
One sleeps beneath Nilgiana'S hills,
And one in Gersgia's sand.
The same sun shines upon their graves;
My love for tbotth u4ttst sta
And so upon my bosom lies
This knot Of blue and gray.

! QUILL
The Southern Farm Magazine. pub
Iished in Baltimore. calls attention to
the efforts to turn stream if emigra-
tion from the North to the South. It
is known that the Southern and South
western railroads are cooperating in
the movement and at the present time
have thousands of emigration agents
at work i'll such States as Ohio, Hi
nois. Iowa. Indiana Wisconsin, Min
nesota, Montana and the two Dakotas.
1t is confidently expected that the work
of these agents will yield excellent re-
suits within the next two or three
years. The Southern Farm Magazine
estimates thar within the last decade
-, 600 Northern and Western farmers
have settled i'll the country beween
New Orleans and Corpus Cristi Texas,
and during the last year l, 300 farmers
settled along the line of the Southern
Railroad. immigration into the South
west is being attracted by the fact
that the application of wheat harvest
ing machinery to the rice fields of
Louisiana and Texas revolutionized
conditions and made rice culture not
only profitable but agreeable work
for white men. The cooperating rail
roads have arranged to run homeseek-
ers excursions at short intervals from
various points in the west and North
west 10 desirable fields i'll the South
in order that the prospective settlers
may have an opportunity to see the
country before purchasing lands In
recent interview Mr.. John Sebastian.
the manager of the Rock Island Rail-
road explained the causes of the in
creased immigration to the Southwest
by saying that there is now a better
understanding on the part of the |
Northern and Western farmers of the |

ing III the Southwest and the dollars
and cents value of such conditions to |
the farmer; theOpening of large tracts
of land i'll Louisiana, Texas and Okla
houma for settlement and the aban-
donment Of large tracts i'll Texas here
ofore used for grazing The farmers
of the North and West have also noted
the establishment of large industries in
the Southwest, consuming or prepar
ing the products of the land for mar
ket and the cheapness of the land as
with the prices that have
to be paid III the North. These con-
ditions Mr.. Sebastian says have done
much to increase the tide of emigra-
ton from the North to the South and

Consul General Uchida. Of Japan

Having read the accounts of the
scandal and bribery Investigations

Ala, thought that he might as

a little himself. The Postmaster

come vacant, so Mr.. Wallace wrote
q Epersonal letter to Postmaster
General Payne, stating that the
Andalusia Office was better than
the one at Opp, and that he de-
sired to make change He stated
that, in order to compensate the
Postmaster general for the trouble,
he would pay him $50 as soon as
the order for the transfer was is
sued. Wallace did not receive the
order Instead, the letter was
to Paul f.. Williams,
Chief Inspector of the Southern
Division, with headquarters here.
As a result, Wallace was removed
from his office at Opp, arrested,
and at preliminary hearing was
held to await the action of the

STATUS OF GEORGE B. MCCLELLAN.

The overwhelming success of Tammany
in the elections in Greater New York has
brought forward Col. George b. McCle!-
Ian, who was elected Mayor, for consid-
Grafton as a Presidential possibility. Sen
ator Morgan has already named him as a
running mate for Senator German. A
question OF his eligibility at once arises,
for he was born Nov. 26, 1855, in Dres-
den, Saxony, whittier his mother and
father had gone for purely personal
visit. Had Gen. Mcclellan at that time
been in the service of the United States.
particularly in a diplomatic capacity,
there would be no question about his eligi-
bility, since where any American Min
lister or other diplomatic representative of
onr Government resides is for the time be-
ing American soil. But Gen. Mcclellan
at that time had nc Office under the Gov
ernment, having resigned his commission
as Major-General, Nov. 8, 1864. The
clause in the Constitution reads:
"No person except natural-born citi-
zen, or citizen of the United States at
the time of the adoption Of this Constitu-
tion, shall be eligible to the office of Pres.
ident"
The same restriction exists as to the
Office Of Vice President, since he may at
any time be called upon to assume the
Office of President.
