THE SMALL FARM AND THE
MACHINE COTTON =.
PICKER.

The Lowry cotton picker will
cost thousand dollars; when it is
perfected. Arguing that the price
will make it prohibitive for the
small farmer, while placed at a
great disadvantage in the competi-
ton between machine and hand
picking, the Southern Farm
Gazette says: Some time will be
required to put many of the
machines at work, doubtless, and
this will give the small farmer
time to get experience in growing
other crops and live stock before
serious competition from the
machine begins to pinch him."
Undoubtedly the small farmer"
will have plenty of time to put his
house in order, before the cotton
picking machine begins to pinch
him" 1t is, in fact a safe presunp-
ton that no small farmer" who
owns desirable land and possesses
practical farming intelligence, is
losing sleep over the chance of
being put out of cotton growing by
the Lowry or any other picker.
Even if perfected. and successfully
placed ON the market, there is II O
reasonable apprehension of lack of
demand at good price, for cotton
grown of superior varieties of seed,
under intensive culture andc areful-
vi gathered. That the machine, wnetl
it is brought to prapctical working,
will be great plantation economy
is not questioned. But there is a
demaud for quality as we'll as
quantity, and it is no doubt claim
ed that clean gathering will be a
result of the invention. .-Vicks-

HORSEBACK CANVASS.

Hon. Charles Scott commenced his
much heralded campaign OF the state on
horseback Monday. His saddle horse
was shipped to Grand Junction. in Ten
nesse. just across from the Mississippi
border, and Monday the long tour OF
twenty-siv counties began. The first
appointment will be ut Ashland i'll Ben
ton county. thence to Hickory Flat, in
the same county, theuce to Corners
vile, i'll Marshall, and so OH down
through the entire state to the coast
line. The distance to be Travelled will
be something more than 500 miles, maxi
ing allowances tor the mennderings OF
the country roads. This campaign will
be something unique in the way of cam
palsning, and more especially for the
exalted position of governor. Never be-
lore in years or since the railroads have
become so numerous in the State, has
man taken this trouble TO meet the plain
people in their homes and present his
claims for Chief Executive of the state.
Mr.. Scott is in perfect health and does
not expect to experience amy great ia
tieue in the undertaking. More than
that he is accustomed to horseback rid
ing and expects to enjoy the trip.-Sun-

COMMENTS on THE
RIDE OF caAs. SCOTT;
CHAs. SCOTT ON HORSEBACK.

The most notable phrase Of the Missis-
sippi campaign SO far developed is the
horseback feature the Hon. Cllas. Scott
has prepared, For the first time in the
modern era Of railroads and convenient
methods of gubernatorial honors of a
great State will go back to the primitive
methods Of the good old dayssof Thoni-
as Jefferson and Andrew Jackson.
| 1t is matter of historical record
Thomas Jefferson, the greatest Demo-
crat of them all, rode on horseback un-
attended from Monticello, tied his own
horse with his own hands at the old
fashioned hitching rack, then standing
in front of the capitol, walked up the
steps where he was inaugurated with
out further ceremony.
Mr. Charles Scott will be rs demo-
cratic as Jefferson. He will ride from
Tennessee boundary line to the shores
of the Gulf Of Mexico through the great
State: of Mississippi, on horseback. He

the many nights in the farm houses of
the sturdy voters and the next morning
he will arise at daybreak, go out to the
barn, curry and saddle his own horse
with his own hands, and otherwise de-
port himself in q manner fully as demo
cratic rs that for which the greet Jeffer-
son is now celebrated.
Mr.. Scott can ride horse with all
the perfection ofhorsemanship for whicl,
Forests cavaly was noted, he having
served with that famous organization,
beginning as private, throughout the
civil war. Tall and straight as All ar
row, clad in suitable riding costume he
will ride through Mississippi. seeing peo-
pie who have perhaps never before shook
hands with n gubernatorial candidate.
Being the personiication Of good health
the jaunt will do him good physically
and enable him to do away with the
vacation which l,c might otherwise need.
Being the largest planter III Missis-
sippi, and used to riding on horseback
over his plantations and with his cavnl-
nv experience Mr.. Scott ought to be
able to ride not only from Tennessee bor-
der to the shores of the Cult, bnt a little
later into the. Governors mansion as
well.-Clarksdale Banner. -

EVERYBODY FOR SCOTT.

Chas, Scott OH horseback campaig II
should be an easy winner with the man
away from the railroad track. As a
farmer he ought to be an easy winner
with the agricultural world. As sue
cesslul business man he should receive
the support of every merchant, whole
sale and retail; as banker he most as
snredly deserves the vote OF the tnan-
ciers, As lawyer there is nothing else
10 it but natural desire on the part
of the ATTORNEYS to vote for him. AS the
man who made good every dollar OF a
defunct banking institutio he deserves
the l,eartist support of every fair-m'nd-
ed man as Mississippian standing on
a Mississippi Democratic platform with
personal merit as his claim on all clas-
ses he ought to win the nomination on
the first ballot. Nlississippians will hon.
or themselves by making him the Gov
ernor Of their rstatc.-Natcheze Democrat.
Hon. Charls Scott has ridden over
two hundred miles on his horseback
canvass Of twenty-six counties from
Tennessee line to the Gulf coast The ter
ritory for the most part embraces pop
ulous and original settlements OF the
state that are inaccessible by railroad.
Nearly all the people whom Mr.. Scott
meets are farmers, who highly and COR
dialy appreciate this unique campaih.
They h. raid his coming from one neigh-
borhood to another, plan all sorts oi
festivities in his honor and extend him
the heartiest hospitality.
Mr.. Scott feels no physical hardship
in his long ride and continues 1t with
zest and in good health. The assurances
of support that he is receiving are stron-
ger and more uumberous than might
have been expected. This odd canvass
is very successful and becomes hitting
feature Of his strenuous and meritorons
campaign for Governor News
