In partial explanation, he said thai
he had intended TO take such action

having served as city attorney, alder
man and mayor of Elmira, member OF
the legislature, lieutenant governor

states senator for six years, he feels
that he has been sufficiently honoret
by his party, and that he has rendered
political service during period OF
years sufficient to entite him 10 be
relieved OF further active political ef-
fort He desires to devote more time
to his personal affairs and professional
duties than he has in the past.
Mr.. Hill will continue his work in
the present campaign, and to bis
friends said that he would always
maintain his interest in democratic
success, but only as private citizen
Mr. Hill will speak for the democracy

The weoyil has appeared in several

case OF lnfestation. except one, the
presence OF tho weevil is due to its
being carried TO the farm in infested

instance, the weevils were carried into
Louisiana by cotton pickcrs who had
been brought from Texas and allowed
to bring their cotton picking sacks
with them. ] wish especially to em-
rhasile these instances.
II has been customary for the Texas
