FARMER WRITES AGAIN

WHY THE PEOPLE RALLY TO BREWER
Says if the Grass Cutters, PlOw Boys,
Mechanics and Wage Farmers will
Stand Togeather, Brewea is
Winner.
Editor Sentinel:
Greek, Miss.
July "a, 1907.

Editor Sentinel:
In few smore days the political
agony will be over, the two riders
will be mounted for the gubernatorial
dash,
The news received from all parts of
the state Justify the claims OF Mr..
Brewers friends, that he will lead in
the first primary. Mr.. Brewer has
made brilliant campaign and glO-
riouS fight: from his opening speech
throughout the entire campaign, he
has made manly and telling stand
for the rights Of the plain people
against the railroads. the money pow
ers and their allies. sHe has made
the fight single hand and alone,
against powerful political influences
and combinations. The diplomacy
used by Mr.. Brewer in reaching the
people over the heads of the politi-
clans, marks him as q man Of great
ability, and one the people can safely
trust to govern Mississippi. Mr.. Brew
er is not untried in official life. When
quite a young man he faithfully rep
resented the counties Of Grenada and
YalobuSha in the state senate: as dis
trict attorney in adjoining district.
his record was brilliant. He was a
holy terror to all law breakers, regard
less of their social position and as
governor Of grand old Mississippi he
will direct affairs with honor and cred
it to himself Mississippi never had
a better governor than Earl Brewer
will make. He is equal to every Oc-
casion. AS | gather the news, the
graSS-cutters and plow boys are rally
ing to Brewers standard and are ter
ribly in earnest in their loyalty to the
orphan boy. | look upon Mr.. Brewer
as winner. because he has message
for the people, because the principles
he advocates are right, and should
prevail, for the prosperity Of the state
and the happiness Of the people,. On
election day every voter is king. Be-
ware of the politicians: don't permit
them to control your vote or silence
your influence Brewer is the candi-
date who has openly made war upon
the railroads. the money powers, the
trusts, the corporations, the politl-
clans and the bucket shops those
who try to tx the price OF the farm
ers' cotton and gamble it off before b
gets it.
AsI understand, the assessment
value of railroad property in the state
is forty-eight million dollars. Every
man who thinks for himself, absolute
ly knows that the assessment should
be raised to one hundred million Ur
more and Mr. Brewer is just such a
man as governor TO recommend this
legislation.
If the grass cutters, the mechanics,
and ge-earners will stand for the
right and justice Equal rights to
all and special privileges to none,
Mr.. Brewer will be the next governor
of Mississippi. win the people LEE
money and the politicians name the
next governor? / do not believe they
viii. | believe they will rebnke that
influence by electing Brewer.

GUARANTEEING THE EARTH
QUAKES.

The seismographers are in trouble
over a missing earthquake. a couple
of weeks ago their instruments in
Washington, Albany. London, Califor
mia and elsewhere announced that
somewhere, estimated by Washington
as at a distance of 5000 miles away.
there had been a tremendous subter
ranean or submarine upheaval. The
intensity, according to the seismo-
graphs. far exceeded that Of any of
the great quakes of recent years. But
up to the present writing no other re-
port of the great disturbance has been
received. The theory of the scientists
is that it occurred somewhere in the
Pacific between Hawaii and Mexico.
That is a good place for earthquakes.
1t is pretty hard on the fishes down
there, but human habitations and lives
are not endangered. What is needed
is a quarantine for earthquakes. and
the Pacific ocean southwest of the
American hemisphere is good loca-
ton for it.

A WASTE OF ENTHUSIASM.

The Santa Fe New Mexican in cal
to the faithful eXclaims:
New Mexicos chances of being ad-
mitted into the union as a state next
sureG if the people of the territory
want it. The Sixtieth congress will
undoubtedly take action on the prop
osition for an enabling act at its first
session, which will convene early in
December. A united and determined
effort in the meantime can not but
have a salutary effect. There is moth
ing to lose and everything to gain
Enthusiasm rising higher the New
Mexican continues:
THE psychological moment has ar
rived to work for statehood and the
people should strike while the iron is
hot. The Santa Fe County Statehood
League is a step in the right direc-
ton. 1t should not be allowed to die
a-bornin'. nor languish in a state Of
inactivity but should be up and do
ing"
But all of this was before New
Mexico heard the latest news. of last
Saturday, that the SiXtieth congress
will not set up a manufacturing es-
tablishment for the turning out Of new
states. So the psychological moment
has been deferred.
We resret this more on account of
New Mexico than on our own account.
On the authority of Governor Curry,
who in turn spoke on the authority of
President Roosevelt little less than
three weeks ago. New Mexico organ
lied a statehood campaign which has
swept the territory like a prairie fire
In every county and in almost every
hamlet statehood leagues We're organ
lied and nightly and daily statehood
rallies have usurped the places Of all
forms Of amusement The 'PMnder-
bund," the Coyotes" the yellow
Journals" the Evening Instrument"
and the Almanac" have been stand
ing tremendously together on a state
hood platform. each calling to the 9TH
er to make a still greater noise and
a more demonstrative show of enthu-
siasm.
Now and then in the midst of the
territorial joy over a blessing which
seemed assured there was an admix
ture of that pride which goeth before
a fall. Some OF the New Mexican
journals looked arrogantly across the
border and in a patronizing manner
told us that we would have to wait
awhile and do penance for our stiff
neckedness in declining jointure.
But all has been changed by a sup
Elemental decree. The psychological
moment has been relegated to a place
among all the moments of which eter-
nifty is composed. But other moments
will come and one of them will doubt
less be psychological for New Mexico
as We'll as for Arizona.
We are truly sorry for New Mexico
that things have turned out as they
have done. 1t is not poetic justice
that the loyal should be put on level
with the recalcitrant We expected
nothing and we got it
But we will both be states by and
by We will both enjoy that greatest
of blessings which can come to ter
ritory only once in a life time and
which sometimes seems a life time in
coming.
