LOUBET MAY RESIGN.
Many politicians say that I.oubet
will yet resign in order 10 perpet-

also to avoid complications with a
double presidency. the statutes
making the terms of the new and

reason IL that ia America the peo-
Pile choose their president while In
France Il u done BY the two houses
Of parliament. IA joint session. And
while the public Is taking quietly

there In no doubt in parliamentary
circles "A vast amount OF butlonhol-

RENIBERTS.

Remberts, Feb. 1s.-This is one
year the farmers are very greatly dis
couraged. Scarcity of farm labor,
low prices of cotton, and the provision
market advancing daily, nothing to
encourage them. Still the good
books tells us ssyet man is born unto
trouble, as the sparks fly upward" we
must throw off these blue feelings and
get down to hard work and work to
the best advantage our means will
allow us and [ am sure everything
will be adjusted equal and right. and
when the harvest comes you will see
smiles and gladness on every face III
the community.
