Hon. William M. selden. at present a Clerk in the Department of Agricui ture, Is a candidate before the people in the approaching primaries for the Democratic nomination for Commas sioner of Agriculture and industries having had much experience in con ducting the affairs of the office. HIS closest friends know him to be com petent and we'll qualified for the dts charge of the duties of the position at the head of the department A na- tive of Charles City County.

Hon. Sidney Johnson Bowie is na- tive Of Talladega County; is gradu- ate of the law department of the Uni versity of Alabama with the degree of B. of L. and at once entered the prac- tice of the law. He began his politi- cal career in his home town of Talla- dega as town clerk and was then made an Alderman, and was a member of the State Democratic Executive Committee of Alabama for six years and Chairman of the Democratic Ex- exutive Committee of Talladega for four years. MT. Bowie is young man, having been born after the war end- ed, but he Is a typical Southerner and true to the cause for which our fathers fought.
 Mir. Bowie won his first political spurs In the Morgan Johnston cam paign of 1900. and as a member of the flying squadron did some splendid and effective work that resulted In the reelection of tine senior Senator. His native wit and attractive oratory and refreshing, earnestness, captured his audiences and carried conviction to many who were before halting and Tn doubt. He took the lead in the move ment for the organization of the Nor gan forces and was instrumental in calling the meeting at Birmingham where the campaign was organized which was so ably conducted and was so overwhelmingly successful In the following election for Congressman the Democrats of the Fourth District, ap- preciatfng his worth, nominated him as their candidate for Congress and the people of the District honored him by unanimous approval at the polls. He has made splendid record in Con- gress, serving on the most important Committee of Agriculture and other special committees, doing fine work on sthe floor of the House. He was a member of the Legislative Committee of the Commercial Club of Alabama in 1898, and assisted in the preparation and passage through the Legislature of a bill to provide for a convention to frame new organic law, was made the Chairman of the Democratic Com mittee to urge, and secure vote for 1t in Calhoun County and the result shows how we'll he did his work. It is not saying too much nor is 1t more than the simple truth to add that no citizen out of the Constitutional Con- vention of 1901 exerted a more potent Influence upon the action of that body than did the distinguished gentleman from Calhoun county. Mir. Bowie has continued to grow. year after year in his services in Congress until today he enjoys a national reputation as a legislator and debater. His part in the contest case of Horton vs. Butler attracted the attention of the country. He has secured for Annston $150.000 for a government building and two sessions of the Federal Court a year at Anniston and has taken an active part in securing the building for Sell ma. No member of Congress has made a more splendid record in so short a service and thc unanimous endorse meut of his constituents for re-elec- ton is the highest endorsement they could give him. He is one of the present leaders of Alabama and is to be known in the future government of the State.

To succeed in farming Is abundant evidence of a mans capacity and abil- ity and is sufficient proof of ability to manage the affairs of others. This MT. Wilkinson has done. He has demon- strated by scientific methods what yield his land will give and now he asks to be made Commissioner of Ag- riculture in order that he may snow his capacity and do what he has ambi- tion to do, develop and build up the farming interests of Alabama He IS a member of the present House of Rep rcsentatives from Autauga County. member of the Committee on Agrfcul- ture. he was active and prominent in all the proceedings of that committee and watchful of the interests Of the farm- CTS A leading citizen of Autauga County, he has the endorsement of his home people. the best backing a man can have for public office and his friends are confident that he will be most formidable candidate. or the matter he says:
 'The industrial development of Ala bama from a farmers viewpoint Is meager indeed. The cotton seed indus try alone, if held to our section would make us rich. Why let our seed cake 20 to fatten Western and across the waters to fatten English steers? Why our oil to Hull. England to make the toilet soaps for my ladies' bath?" Or to France to come back to us in our im-
 ported sardines? To do these things
 successfully we need training. Our sons and daughters to take charge of
 great textile industries or creameries or toilet soap factories must be ready for the demands that shall come upon them. We must encourage this neces- sary oncoming development for hand | in-hand with 1t will be greater pros- perjty The times are changing, labor l is shifting and shiftless. Scientific | kno wledge and clear discernment of our opportunities were never before so needful The future of Alabama ag ricuIture and industries are dependent on immediate, strong and vigorous &C., ton, and I assure my friends that If elected to this office every effort shall
 be made to put Alabama to the very forefront among agricultural and in-
 dustrial States, for here alone Is her station"
 In his letter announcing his candi- dacy he proposes If elected to do the following for the farmers of the State:
 "As to what I would do or attempt to do for the people of Alabama should be elected tn the office for which l am an aspirant. you have right to know although 1t is almost impossible, in a personal letter. to state clearly and concisely my views and Ideas ex- cept some general plans which think should govern this department First: I would most assuredly fol- l low in the footsteps of all worthy predecessors. adopting all that is good, and in the main be governed by their wise actions and policies.

In every community there Is some leading spirit in energy and enterprise to direct and carry to successful con- summation any movement of pro- gress and commercial advancement. Such men are the main spring of the business and commercial life of the town and are looked to in every emer- gency, and they always come up 10 the expectation and meet every re- ouirement, their active and fertile brain filling the gaps and supplying the de- ficiency and moving the wheels easily and steadily to the accomplishment or the undertaking in hand. In the town of Prattville may be found such clti- zen in the person of MT. C. E. Thomas, who possesses all the requisites named to a remarkable degree, and who nat urally leads in business and commer- ciaI transactions. He is son Of Hon. w. e, Thomas of Gold Hill, Chambers county. and inherits much Of his ta- ther's native ability and tact "nich has made him so successful on the farm: he is also a brother or Juose . w H.

 that he knows what he wants. This Is the platform he goes before the peo- pie on as a candidate for Railroad Com missioner: Imaginary lines separate ing Alabama from Georgia, Floridn. Mississippi and Tennessee are py the railroad made pretext for charging higher rates on the same class ox freight and for the same distance in Alabama than are charged in the States above named.

 MT. Rogers was also member or the Constitutional Convention of iSols and his record In that goes to sustain his past record as the unfailing friend of the masses of the people, and as ready and willing to be fair and 1ust to all interests He is one of the public men of Alabama who has never be- trayed a trust. and who has proven by his past services that he can safely bo again trusted with any power. with the that he will discharge Bis every duty faithfully and well; with honesty and the highest integrity. He is an engr ging and captivating speaker and in the canvass his voice will be heard for the reforms which the great body of the people are now demanding.

MT. Ernest W. Thompson. of Tus- kegee, Ala. Is the eldest son of the lamented Charles w. Thompson. who died while representing the Fifth Ala bama District In Congress. He is In his twenty-fourth year and has ex- hibited much of the tact and ability of his tllustrious father in his inter course with his fellows and in the management of his own private af- fairs. He had many Of the advantages which wealth and an indulgent parent could give. and coming into manhood his father took him to Washington and put him to work in his office with his correspondence and he nere soon de- veloped into q most valuable and use- fui assistant. Reaching manhood's es- tate and desiring to go into business for himself he purchased The Tuske- gee News and for some time edited that already popular and influential paper with much ability, exhibiting pe- culiar fitness for the work. He gave to the paper renewed vigor and at tracted much attention of the reading public by his terse and manly discus sion of current topics and the local department of The News. was. under his management. made most attractive and won for the paper quite an ex- tended and increased patronage in Macon and adjoining counties.

seems to have inherited much of the na-
 tive genius and ability running In the
 family. His early life was spent in
 Tuskcgee as a student and later as
 business man, being usually successful
 in whatever he undertook. His first
 political experience was as a Deputy
 Marshal under Hon. B. W. Walker, who as United States Marshal made such a splendid record, and Mir. Thomp- son, barely in his majority, attracted attention by the faithful and diligent manner in which he discharged his duty bringing to 1t a degree of con- servatism and consideration for those unfortunate enough to fall under the | ban under the law. to mark him, not | only a humane but as most efficient 1 and conscientious public officer. At the | time when the question of the disposi- | tion of the negro in the Republican Party bid fair to render the party asunder. Mir. Thompson boldly and fear
 lessly advocated those principles which ! he deemed correct and for the best in- ] terests of all concerned, and by his l splendid executive ability and tremend- | ous power of organization at onco stepped to the front and demonstrated those faculties and powers which have since proven him to be leader of men: astute. clever and far-seeing, he has
 been a success as a politician. First as Deputy Marshal. then as United States Commissioner, and then Collector of In tcrnal Revenue, which office he now holds and which he has filled with great ability and with signal satisfaction to
 all parties. Ho is the chairman of tho State Republican Committee and the
 leader of the party in the State; one | of the Referees for this State, the Pres- ident confides in him and trusts much to him and his fellow referee for dis pensing the Federal patronage in this State and not once has this confidence been found to have been misplaced, but all concede that the men recommended
 by the referees are all capable and wor- thy and have made officials that would
 do credit to any party. He is in com
