The price OF corn will never again
be as low as It was ten and fifteen
years since. Within the memory OF
many Missouri farmers corn sold for
from twelve to eighteen cents per
bushel, but 1t will never sell 90 low
again, no matter the size OF the crop.
This is due to the constantly increas.
ing demand for corn, occasioned by
the diversified uses to which 1t Is put
and to the fact shat 80 many Nilsson.
Rams are putting their land to grass.
And as the price Of corn has become
permanently higher 80 has the price
Of Missouri land become higher and

SUPREME JUDGE W. ". GRAVES.

Bates county has a Democratic
nominee on the state ticket, the first
time In the history OF the county. A
candidatefor the highest Office ofone
Of the coordinate branches OF our
state government. We should be
proud OF this distinction and show to
the world what Bates county sons
are willing to do for a Bates county
boy, when the party in the stnte at
large 30 honors him. Judge Graves
Is a Bates county boy, raised on q
farm in Western Bates, he chopped
the clods" In season and attended
the district school In winter. He
studied hard at night, worked his
way through the university and law
school, by teaching country schools.
He has come up through the grades,
always by hard fighting, and in line
with bis profession, until he now
adorns the highest judicial Office in
our state. The governor could have
paid him no higher compliment when
he said: "You owe your appoint.
ment to no man or cot Of men, but to
your great ability, which l
learned inmy practice In yourcouft. !"
Honor yourself and your county
BY voting for her distinguished son.

STOLE DEMOCRATIC THUNDER.

1t is enough to make the cold chillS

Democratic thunder every day in the

that he can repudiate it without MAX

that his party bosses have q majority
against him on the proposition.
Here is a case in point, quoting
from Mr.. Bryan's speech in st. Louis

where did Mr.. Roosevelt find his
mandate for his action regarding the
rate bill? He had to 90 to the DEM

The best thing a man can do is to
invest in dirt. Many who are renters
all their lives could have owned their
homes if they had determined to do so
in their youth. The late Ben Butler,
who had a big brain, was wont to give
this advice to young men: "My son the
Almighty is making more folks every
day. but He is not making any more
land" He is further quoted as saying
that he had traVersed for forty years
the route in Lowell from the Lowell
depot to his law office. and that at the
time of his speaking he could not see
along the quite the signs of half a
dozen commercial firms that were in
business on that route when ne first
began to travel it. But, on the other
hand, he did not know of half q dozen
men who had invested in real estate
in Boston at the beginning of the
period and held on to it who we're not
wealthy and solid. ither for them
selves or their families. at the end OF
that period.
The history of every progressive
town and city in North Carolina is
that the men who had the foresight 20
buy land ave made small or large for
tunes, in accordance With the growth
of the town. Even in towns where
there has been little growth the man
who has his money in land has never
been known to lose much and he haa
been able to stand in DAYS of panic
and trouble. ~

THE NEW SCHEME OF TIL. MAG
MATES.

"About his time of the year, look
out for" rs the Almanac would say,
the organs OF the railroads to begin
Il sudden and violent attack upon rail
road anagement n declaring that
some managers have been so arDi-
trary hat they have caused the pres
ent feeling for control or ownership
of railroads. This sudden and Ia
expected criticism by newspapers al
ways s~ubservient to corporate de-
n}ands will deceive some people, Hut
those who can see the inspiration viii
see that it is in accordance with Il
PLAZA to thy to change the trend OF
public sentiment now setting 50
strongly toward control, or if that does
not avail, toward governmental own
c"ship. The criticisms originated in
the great newspaper known to belong
10 the j. Pierpont Morgan interests
and they have been echoed by other
organs and newspapers tha sneeze
when a railroad magnate takes snuff.
What is the object of these inspired
criticisms upon railroad managers?
Nhe answer is that the railroads wish
10 turn the criticisms to men and not
To the system. If certain managers
have been dictatoriaI, hen by q
change of men all the reforms needed
can be cured. The magnates would
cruelty as many general managers as
would appease the ~pOpulace, pretend to
reform for awhile, and hen go on
I-.fppinO thoi,. ctoal- ,,,,o 1+io;Cr dc
elimination and charging eXOrbitant
rates. Not many years ago in a GER
tain State, after a candidate opposed
by The railroads had been elected Gov
crnor, the railroad bosses began to
negotiate with the Governor for peace.
The new Governor refused II under
standing until the man who had ac-
lively fought his nomination was lie
headed. This didn't trouble the own
crs of the railroad at all and so they
save the new Governor the head cf
The despiseG railroad manager on a
charger, and, though he had thun-
derrd against railroads, he was APP
peased and permitted the railroads
to continue to water stock. escape
'@NHll'Ii, anu ~ charge what IleE
pleased as freight and passenger rates.
They kicked out the man who
mad acted as their agent with
expressions of regret hat he
had so far transcribed his posi-
zion as to carry the railroad into
politics, and then proceeded to get
him q better job with a kindred rail-
road system in Il Western State. The
silly Governor walked into their trap.
He permitted himself to be deceived
into thinking that the trouble could
be remedied by changing the manager
of that railroad in one State.
The Federal government is begin
ming now to regulate rates. What is
to be done? If the railroads are per-
United to say: w will mend our
ways on our w motion and stop the
practises to which you object no
good result will come
from such course. The only hope is
in strict regulation by government au-
thority. No amount of abuse of mana
Sors or promises of reform will give
relief TO shippers. The present in
SDired criticisms of certain
is a blind.
1T is for US to say that the present
decline shall not continue."-T. 3.
