Sir Godfrey Lagden. the chief native
commissioner of the Transvaal, cited
as evidence of the governments good
intentions toward the black popula-
tion the fact that whereas formerly a
native paid $40 for each wife. lae cost

CONGRESS BEGINS
FIFTY-NINTH SESSION is EX-
PECTED TO BE SHORT.
Appropriation Bill Will Reach at Least
a Billion Doliars-ship Subsidy Bill
to Come up-Tariff to Be Consider
ex-senator Reed smoot Case Is to
Come Up for Settlement.

The passage Of the appropriation
bills and as little other general legis-
lation as possible. Such in brief Is
the forecast for the short session Of
the Fifty-ninth congress, which begun
at noon Tuesday.
Circumstances will have the effect
OF condensing the consideration of
the IA large supply measures into
two months. Considering that the ag-
gregate Of the appropriations to be
considered will approximate one bill
ion dollars, some senators and mem.
bers express the opinion that congress
cannot do better than give all of its
time to these measures.
The report on the ship subsidy bill
probably will be an exception to the
rule for no general legislation. The
friends of that measure have never
been more insistent than now. They
are extremely hopeful and yet very ap-
prehensive. The bill has passed the
senate and is In committee in the
house.
The senate has on its calendar two
important house bills, the immigration
bill and the Philippine tariff bill, but
there are snags In the pathway Of
both of them. There is still intense
OPPOSITION to the Philippine bill, espe
cially as it is not believed that it car
possibly receive serious consideration
during the short session.
Not a few members of both houses
are anxious to meet the demands Of
bankers and others for a more elastic
currency, and 1t is quite certain tina
there will be efforts to supply THU
want in the session.
Suggestions looking toward amend
ing the railroad rate law are not ex
pected to bear fruit this session. AL
these measures and many others ar
certain to receive attention in the de
bate.
Among questions slated for liberia
share of discussion, the tariff stand
at the head of the list, but no one ha
the least idea that any serious effort
will now be made to secure the mod
s fication which even many republican
think desirable.
The senate will give attention t
the case of Senator Reed Smaot .bu
what it will do about it, not even tn
senate wishes now to contemplate
There has from the first been a d1sp'
sition to put the Smoot matter asid
but with the report Of the committe
. on privileges and elections on the ca
endar and Chairman Burrows quite d
termined to press consideration, tn
fact is that the matter must be dea
with, and is beginning to impress itse
upon members and they are pressir
seriously for it's consideration. TT
Michigan senator will set the ball 70
ing Monday, the 10th instant, in
speech in which he will review Il
entire case.
Much interest attaches to the pref
dents forthcoming recommendation
concerning the Panama canal, prin'
pally because of his recent visit to Il
canal zone. 1t is not expected that
will ask much legislation beyond Z
necessary appropriations. and there
general disposition to grant these. II
increase of the navy will receive mu
consideration, but there is still OPT
sition to the proposed ship of t
Dreadnaught class.

The pig sty is nearly always filed
with materials for absorbing manure,
but they are not cleaned as frequently
as should be the case. In winter, IL
the yard contains absorbents, they be-
come soaked during rains, and are dis
agreeable locations for pigs. The pig
prefers a dry location, as 1t suffers Sc
verely on damp, cold days The ma
terials in the pig stiles will be OF more

should be Uttered foot deep with cut

should always be cleaned out after a
rain and dry material then added.

The Selection of Seed Corn.
There is no time which Is put in to
better advantage or which fetches a
larger return than that devoted to Sc
Iecting the seed corn during the latter
part Of September and the first half OF
October. The advantage which secur-
Ing the seed ears at this time has over
the ordinary method of selecting at
husking time lies In the fact that a
choice of the earliest maturing ears
can be made, distinction that 10 i'm
possible when all Of the crop Is ripe
and ready to husk. For all the north
half Of the corn belt that type of corn
Is best which bears It's ears low on the
stalk. This means as a rule that such
corn will mature early, and while the
ears produced may not be quite SO
large as those which one has to reach
above his head after they are much
more likely to produce hard corn, which
will keep after 1t is put in the crib. The
shape and depth of kernel and form
and type of ears are of very trivial i'm
portance as compared with the mali
question as to whether the corn itsel
Is of a variety which will mature {
crop In the latitude In which 1t Il
planted.

as well as clover-in fact, many farm

better and that 1t is no more difficult to

this may be true. we urge the use of

cuse that the government has been in
the control of the Republicans. If
this be true, how is it that our other
congressman have been able to do so
much for their districts? If this be
true, how is it that Lon Livingston
could get a mammoth appropriation
for Federal Prison at Atlanta, and
million dollars for a new postofice
building at the same place? How is
it that Bartlett could get an appro-
priation OF 100000 to tear down a
building in Macon costing at least
100000 and replace it with a new one
at five times the cost of the old? How
is 1t that Brantley could get a Divis
ion Of the United States Court and
public building for Valdosta while
Cordele goes begging? How is it that
Maddox could do the same thing a.
Rome, even though we had a Repub
lican House, a Republican Senate, and
Republican President? How is it that
Jim Griggs, who was elected about
the same time as Mr.. Lewis, could at
tain such national prominence? He
IS at the head of the Democratic Con-
gressional Committee of the United
States. He also got one of those Di-
visions Of the United States Court for
Albany, when they were passed
around, while Americus, a much larger
city, and more centrally located, was
shut out forever.
Don't you think it about time the

that some one else was representing
this District as it should be repre-.

lieve that after ten years of trial Mr.
Lewis future will be anything differ
ent from his past? He has stated to
you that be is now in a position to be
of more service to you than ever be.
fore; that his ten years service in
Congress has just fitted him to fill the
position which he asks at your hands
But, gentlemen, l state to you that
Mr.. Lewis made more speeches in the
eorly days Of his congressional career
than in his latter ones; he voted more
frequently during the first two terms
than he has ever voted during the last
and was more active in every way
han he is now; and from these con
siGarations l have every reason to
believe that instead of improving the
service he has absolutely refrigerated,
and that his days of usefulness are
past.
Hadn't you better keep Mr.. Lewis
at home hereafter? Won't you assist
in electing a man who will represent
this District as other districts are rep
resented? A man who loves this
Southland of ours more than all the
rest of the world combined; and who
will ever labor and work 20 make it
that country whose God is indeed the
Lord, and which in commerce and
wealth, in civilization and society will
lead the world.
