To the Voters of Jefferson County:
l call attention to an endorsement of
Prof /. w. McAdory by a few OF the
teachers of the county, published yester-
day In the Birmingham News. l have al
ready called attention to the fact that
no fair competitor will, at the last hour
of the campaign, foist upon the public a
lot of claims of strength, support or any
other matter after it is too late for his
opponent to refute such claims. That pc
tition is political trick, devised to
boost up a support and sail into othce
before the facts can be known.
have carefully considered those names
l find that twenty-five on that list are
my active supporters. Eighteen have no
connection with the public schools seven
do not reside in the county and
four are not qualified electors. These facts
show clearly that that endorsement, COM
ing as 1t did at the last hour of the cam
paign 1t is nothing more than a political
move to boost up a support of four years
ago when Mr.. McAdory said to the people,
Il only want the office one more time,
elect me and vindcate me for the way
I have been turned down and I will not
offer again."
Mr.. McAdory has been honored for four
teen years as county superintendent Why
did he not hold up before to the people a
magnificent school system? The people

EDITORIAL
A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK.

AS for jest, there be certain things which ought
to be privileged from it; namely, religion, matters
of state, great persons, any mans present bust
ness of Importance, and any case that deserveth
pity. Yet there be some that think their wits
have been asleep, except they dart out somewhat
that is piquant and to the quick. That is a vein
which should be bridled. And generally men
ought to find the difference between ~saltness and
bitterness. Certainly he that hath a satirical wit,
as he maketh others afraid of his wit, so he had
need to be afraid of others memories.-From
Lord Bacon's Essay, "Of Discourse"
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1904-05-03
WHAT THE SUB ALLIANCE OR FARMERS
CLUB SHOULD DO.

While new topics for meetings of all farmers
clubs are essential to their progress and well-be-
ing, there are many questions of perennial inter
est that should be presented and discussed at every
~meeting-topics that never grow old. Let us see
what some of these are.
1. Since "self representation is the first law of
nature" every sub Alliance should give attention
first of all to it's own life and progress. See that
the meetings are made interesting and see to it
that no desirable person within reach is allowed
to live six months at a time without being asked
to become a member of the Order. At each meet
ing let the members of your sub make a list of the
eligible persons of the neighborhood who should
be asked to join. Then appoint some member or
members to see these prospective candidates and
speak to them in behalf of the Alliance. Also
make a list of the members own wives, sons and
daughters who should join and see that the merits
of the Order are brought to their attention. Let
the outside world know that you are alive and at
work. Arrange open meetings from time to time
with the best speakers obtainable and ask the pub
lie to attend. In your regular meetings vary the
monotony of speaking and discussion by music,
recitations and readings. Let the members perfect
themselves in the secret work of the Order. De-
velop a spirit of generous rivalry between your
sub and neighbOring subs as to which shall have
the most entertaining meetings, the best-drilled
officers and members, the most interesting de-
bates and the most active membership. Make a
vigorous effort to get more women and young
people into the sub and see that it's social features
receive proper attention. An annual picnic might
also prove helpful. Other ideas will occur to our
readers, for these are only a few of the things that
ought to be considered at each meeting.
2. But the Alliance has a nobler object than
that of maintaining a mere existence or of enter
tanning it's members. 1t must stand for progress
and it's members must be distinguished for being
a little more progressive than other people. At
each meeting the members should discuss ways and
means of improving their farms and homes.
Every man should report any improved method
of farm work that he has noticed and report also
any mistake, failure or success that he thinks 1T
would help his fellow members to know about.
Any article in any farm paper, bulletin or book
that a member is interested in should be present
ed and discussed. If practicable, prizes for the
best yields of cotton, tobacco, corn, ETC., should be
offered. Nor should the adornment and improve
ment of the home and home grounds be overlook
ed. The lady members should be encouraged to
develop this feature of the work and all members
should work together toward making the homes
simple beauty.
3. Besides the improvement of their own farms
and homes the members of the sub should be in
terested in the improvement of the neighborhood
