boy can figure it out for any county
by precincts in day.
To show how it would work take
Stearns county. The vote for
Dunn was 1869, the average repub-
lican vote 1858, the vote for
Roosevelt 2s49. Basing the repre-
sentation on the Dunn vote allowing
one delegate for every 200 votes
and major fraction and one at
large this County would be entitled
to eight delegates in the next
republican state convention, based
on the average vote eleven, and on
the Roosevelt vote fifteen. 1t
would be an injustice to cut this
county down to eight votes and we
are not entitled to fifteen. And
what is true of this county is true
of very many counties in the state.
The Roosevelt vote represents the
entire republican and goodly
PERCENTAGE of the democratic and
populistic vote. One might as
well base the republican convention
on the voting population as to base
it on the Roosevelt vote.
There ought to be no question
about cutting out the five delegates
at large. If they are again foisted
on the party it will result in the
grossest inequality of representa-
ton as it always has in the past.
Under It's workings, using the
average vote as basis representa-
ton, Lake county would have one
delegate to every sixty-one votes,
Pope, an average county, one to
every lO2, while in Hennepin there
would be one delegate to every 236
votes. A representation so mani
festly unfair as to need no further
comment.

A SELECT LIST.

Bro. Eddy of the Sank Centre
Herald rises to remark that "when-
ever a prominent Republican con-
forms to the Journal-Press idea of
Republicanism the Republicans of
the state look askance at the one
who incurs it's favor" Really?
Theodore Roosevelt is the Journal
Press ideal Of Republican, and it
confesses high regard for Judge
Taft as his successor. 1t is mighty
well satisfied with Knute Nelson,
and it has on occasions commended
the Republicanism of Frank M.
Eddy. Possibly this shows poor
judgment, but Frank is not judi
cious in calling public attention to
it.-St- Cloud Journal P,-osr.
In other words the above consti-
tute the republicans that the
Journal-Press approves of but there
is some doubt about Eddy. The
list is small but awfully select.

The Dreams Ahead.

What would we do in this world of ours
Were it not for the dreams ahead?
ror thornS are mixed with the blooming
flowers.
No matter which path we tread.
And each of us has his golden goal,
Stretching far into the years;
And ever he climbs with hopeful SOUL
With alternate smiles and tears.
That dream ahead is what holds him up
Through the storms OF ceaSeess fight;
When his lips are pressed to the worm
woods cup
And clouds shut out the light
To some it's a dream of high estate,
To some it's dream of wealth;
To some it's a dream of a truce with
Fate
In a constant search for health.
To some it's dream of home and wife;
To some it's a crown above;
The dreams ahead are what make each
life
The dreams-and falkland love!

SUFFRAGE.
No. z

There is now, always has been
and there will always continue to
be, divergent views on all public
questions from the least to the
greatest. Those who think along
similar lines will group themselves
together and form political parties.
Each party wants and is entitled
to it's own candidates. Make it
incumbent that they be selected
by a direct primary vote of the
individuals composing the party,
and when the nominations are made
have all the officials selected by
a direct vote of the people, doing
away with the Anticipated method
of selecting United States Senators
by legislatures and Presidents by
Electoral Colleges. Whatever con-
ditions may have been in the past,
at the present time the people are
capable of transacting their own
political business. He who is
afraid to trust the people is unsafe
for the people to trust. Make the
road to official positions direct and
straight. The more devious and
winding the way, the greater the
opportunities for laying snares and
digging pitfalls. 1t is in crooked
streets that criminals Turk, not in
straight thorough-fares. How are
these reforms to be secured? The
way is simple. So plain is it that
it seems almost an insult to Ameri-
can craftsmanship to suggest it.
1t is an easy matter for me to settle
great questions. do not need any
time to settle the mighty problems
that have perplexed statesmen since
the beginning of our national
career. l can solve them right off
the reel, and l offer the following
solution of the suffrage question.
That all nominations be made
by direct primary vote and all
elective officers be elected by a
direct vote of the people.
That every canvassing board in
every election precinct be composed
of at least one representative from
each of the three parties casting the
highest number of votes at the last
preceding election, and let the
members of the different parties
themselves select the Judges at their
primary elections.
That in every voting precinct in
the United States an absolutely
uniform qualification for suffrage
be required and let congress pre-
scribe the qualifications.
~
That the federal courts shall have
exclusive jurisdiction over election
frauds. 1t is preposterous to
suppose a local Judge who may owe
his position to election frauds will
fairly try or adequately punish the
perpetrator of those frauds.
That the Australian Ballot Law
shall be universal; that no man
shall permit another to mark his
ballot, unless he is physically un-
able to do it himself.

This is to You.

[ will respectfully call the attention
of the readers of this paper, especially
those who put out fruit, shade and
ornamental trees and Towering shrubs
to protect and beautify their homes.
You are interested in trees, of course
you are, everyone is. The most
interesting tree in the world is tree
that will grow. The best trees for this
latitude are northern grown trees.
Why? Because there are no others
so hardy in resisting the cold winters
of the north and dry summers, so
early to bloom and bear fruit. Why?
Because the season of growth is short
and the season Of rest and wood ripen-
ing is long. Purity of blood in
animals. A successful breeder of
fancy cattle maintains his standard by
constantly selecting the truest type OF
the breed. Just so The Jewell Nursery
Co. of Lake City, Minnesota, during
period of thirty-seven years of pains
taking culture brought their stock to
the highest standard OF excellence,
purity and vigor. Buy the best, that
which has been tested. Foreign stuff
that is hawked over the country by
Tree Tramps like cheap machinery, is
always disappointing, even worse than
that, as you are obliged to labor and
wait four or five years to find out at
the end that you have been miserably
and rascally sold.
Geo. H. Stout, agent for the Jewell
Nursery, will call on you in the near
future and be glad to take your order
for the best nursery stock that money
can buy.
Yours respectfully,

Good for Mr.. Jordan.

AS long as Mr.. Harvie Jordan
is at the head of the Cotton Asso-
ciatlon it will never be a pack
horse for politicians and Officer
seekers. Mr.. Jordan has put his
foot down hard on this. In the
constitution he was instrumental
IN having a clause inserted that If
any office-holder in the Cotton AS
sociation accepts political Office
or even becomes candidate for
one, he torfeits his Office in the
cotton association. Mr.. Jordan
has demanded the resignation of
several officers in Georgia on this
account, and high>up officer IN
North Carolina will likely be call
ed to taw on the same thing. "This
is a business movement, Mr..
Jordan says, "and we are not 60
ing to put out time and money in
to q scheme to benefit the country
aud allow it to be used as stepping
stones by selfish people for their
own ends. This has been the death
of good many farmers organiza-
tions, and we are deter mined to
steer clear of it. Monroe Jour>

Newberry Free Of Rum
Dispensary Knocked Out in Homo
of Evans and Bleaso. Vote
2 to- | or Better.
Special to Greenville News.

Newbcrry, August 29 Here
In the homo of Chairman Il. II.
Evans, of the board Of directors,
and Cole Blease, It's champion, the
dlspensaly was knocked out today
by vute which was early estimat>
ed at more than two to one. The
result was not surprise ito the
advocates of the law, for they re ,
ahzed Immediately after the Spar
tanburg investigation that the evil
dences of corruption and graft had
changed sentiment, and while
many citizens may have doubted
the effectiveness OF prohibition,
they wanted to register singing
rebukc TO tho system 80 bitterly
condemned 10y the better element
in South Carolina.
The first fourteen preciirts res
ported showed 237 votes for the
dispensary, will h 7S3 votes
against it There ale "a precincts
IN the county. The result cannot
be changed by the vote at the 9TH
er precincts.
Senator Blease went into the
campaign and fought vigorously
for the dispensary, making speech
es and publishing letters for the
cause. His encounter with a
minister ut Young's Grove issbe-
lieyed by many to hevo hnft the
liquor chances 1t was practically
conceded, however, that the dis
pensary crowd was whipped and
the public simply waited for the
returns to see how the majority
had grown.

What it Cost Newberry to Vote
Out dispensary.

The action of the citizens of
Newberry in voting out the dis.
pensary was not precipitate. The
matter had been discussed on the
stump and IN the papers. The de-
termined spirit of the people is
therefore all the more apparent.
Last year Newberry county re-
ceived from the profits of the
State dispensary sc, 1864, none
OF which was from tho "defclency
fund.- but all from the surplus
fund which under the law cannot
be participated in by counties vot-
ing out the dispensary.
In addition to this the profits
divided between county and town
last year were as follows: Bax-
ter,s beer dispensary, $60s. 40;
Prosperity 81, ,97O,9s; Newberry,
SlO,91S 40; making a total of
$13,504.1
In addition to losing these pro-
tit items, which might have been
duplicated or even made larger
this year, the county of Newberry
will have s. levy of 1-2 million its
$5,67s,2e5 of taxable property to
enforce the law, this tax amount.

Boyd Evans Won't Dabble in
Newberry Situation.

Special to Greenville News.
Columbia, Aug. 20. No action
will be taken in Newberry by Boyd
Evans in the dispensary situation.
Mr.. Evans stated this morning
that as yet he had nothing to do
with the matter in that county and
!hat there were only three counties
in which he was interested Pick
ems, Union and Marion. In the
two first the matter is now in the
courts. An election b a & been
ordered for Marion for September
II and Mr.. Evans said this morn-
ing that he would, carry the case
into court should the election be
decided against the dlspensary.
He did not say on what grounds
this would be done, but it is pre-.
sumed that the same point will be
raised there as was raised in other
counties-that The signatures to
the petition for the election were
not all genuine and that all of them
were not registered voters. Mr.
Evans was inclined to think if
there was full vote the dispen-
sary would win in Marion, but he
doubted seriously whether there
would be anything like full vote.
