PARKER CONFIDENT.
Had Received Assurance Of Support of
Part Of Benton County Delegates.


The contest for the nomination by
the republicans Of Marshall, Benton
and Tama counties for the office of
circuit judge of the Seventeenth dis
trict to succeed the late Obed Caswell,
is on at Belle PLANE, where the con-
vention is being held this afternoon.
What the result will be cannot be fore
told, but If the promises made to Col.
j. NJ Parker, by prominent members
of the Benton county delegation, are
carried out, Col. Parker should receive
the nomination.
MIR. Parker left with his delegation
this morning, and before going he said
that he was reasonably confident, bas-
ing his confidence On the promises OF
support he had received from Benton
county delegates Should these, how
ever, go back on him and swing their
support to the other candidate, j. w.
Willett. of Tama, the latter will receive
the nomination.
1t is a reasonable assured fact that
the Benton county delegation, which
holds the key to the situation, will be
split. part supporting Parker end part

Of course, stand solid for Willett, and
Marshall county will be all for Parker.
Tama has seventeen votes, Marshall
twenty-five and Benton nineteen. to-
tai of fifty-eight. Thirty is majority,
which necessitaltes Parker getting eight
from Benton, in order to be nominated,
while Willett must have thirteen from
that countys delegation to secure the
place. Col. Parker said he had the
promise of eight and more than that
number from Benton county.
There is a possibility that there will
be a deadlock, but this was not hardly
thought likely by members Of the local
delegation. It is probable that the
nomination will not be reached, how
ever, until late this afternoon.

DANGER IN a CENTRAL POWER

There are 476 members of Con-
gress-90 in the Senate and 3S6 in
the House. The Senate is still
deliberate body, but the House is
so large as to be an unwidely mass.
In the present House about 10000
bills have been introduced, very
few of which will ever see the light
of day. There is very little de-
bate in the House, and most of it's
work is done by committees and in
many cases through the heads of
departments. The departments
make recommendations, aud the
House follows them, Committees
and the departments prepare leg
islation, the Speaker and the Com
mittee on Rules approve it-and
pass it. Still, the disposition to
increase the scope and business of
Congress, to have it assume the
powers and duties of the States, is
increasing. The tendency is to in
vest Congress with the power and
duty to make all laws and to as
sumo the prerogratives of the
States. The spirit of paternalism
is rampant, and Capitalization and
Federalism are being encouraged
and invoked as never before. Men
processing to be Democrats utterly
disregard all the traditions, prin-
ciples, teachings and history of
Democracy. They want the Fed
eral Government to do everything.

HOLD TIGHT TO YOUR POLICIES

While many persons throughout
the country are alarmed at the dis
closures brought at the recent in
vestigation of some of the big in
surance companies of New York,
they should not lose faith in the
principle of life insurance, thinks
the Savannah News. Dispatches
from the metropolis tell of thous-
ands ofsmaller holders throwing
up their policies. This is a mis-
take and pecuniary loss to them
selves, the companies getting the
benefit of what they have already
paid in. One would hardly deny
the Christian religion because a
minister or two goes wrong; nor
ignore the banking system of the
country because now and then a
cashier goes short by wrong doing.
