DUTY OF SANE DEMOCRATS.

From Repudiatin Hearst.

To THE EDITOR or HI SUN-Sir: What
a pitiable spectacle the alleged Democratic
party in this State presents. With an unusual
opportunity for reinstatement in popular
favor. with many able men from among whom
to choose a high ~principled nominee for Gov
ernor. the Democratic State convention per-
mitted itself to be dragoOned into action that
is discreditable aud will doom the party to
disaster at the polls as the result Of public
indignation.

Eloquent Figures OF Progress

A pamphlet containing nothing but
troops Of figures in its forty-two pages,
and therefore not inviting at first sight
to any man but a professional account
ant, has been issued by the Department
of Commerce and Labor, with the name
of O.. p. AUSTIN, Chief Of the Bureau Of
Statistics, upon its cover. The serried
figures repel, and the title, Statistical
Record Of the Progress Of the United
States" almost completes the rOut Of
interest. Nevertheless, it is a fascinating
publication and kindles the imagination
wonderfully, for its dry figures are elo-
quent Of the expansion and greatness Of
the United States since 1900, when the
record begins. History can be read
between their marshalled rows, and the
magical future Of the country is wildly
suggested.

Mr.. j. p. Saxon, of Huntington, hat
quite a narrow escape from possible
serious if not fatal injuries, as the re
suit of a runaway accident near Mr..
L. j.. Weather's last Friday.
MIR. Saxon was on his way to the
city driving a pair of spirited horses to
a single buggy, followed by a wagon
team. Just beyond Mr.. Weather's the
mules attached to the Wagon became
frightened and were on a wild run when
they crashed into MI. Saxon's buggy,
almost demolishing the vehicle and
throwing Mr.. Saxon violently into the
road. He managed to hold on to the
lines, but was dragged a considerable
distance by the horses in an effort
to join in the race.
Luckily for MI. Saxon he got off with
only a few slight bruises about the
knees and shoulders. The wagon team
was soon stopped without doing further
damage.

hereby called to meet on Saturday, the

1t is of the greatest Importance that
there be a full representation at this
meeting. Let every township send its
quota, whether their organization has
been perfected or not. 1t is essential
to the best interests of this country
that this organization be kept in thor
ough working order. The question of
acreage, of cotton-holding, and of ware
house building will come up at this
meeting. There are a great many peo-
pie who are convinced that farmers
should build and own a warehouse.
Then, there is the burning question of
how much cotton shall be planted in
1906. Upon this and kindred questions
must depend the fate of our country.
Turn out farmers, and let us take coun-
sci on these things.
