Agricultural Prosperity.

The report of the United States De
partment of Agriculture shows the
value of all the crops of the present
year to amount to SS,404, 0O0, 600, a
handsome increase Of $47S, 600, 900, or
Ia per cent, over the crops Of 1906, and
about the largest yield the country has
ever enjoyed.
These figures are interesting in con
sidering the financial situation and the
talk of depression and hard times.
There may be less speculative induftry,
put it is quite evidetn that the founda-
ton is firm enough. Wall street may
have suffered, but prosperity and the
farmers have not, and they are much
surer barometers of national industry
and prosperity In the light of these
figures, it will be recognized that
whatever furry there may have been
in certain financial and speculative cir
cles, the farmers are doing well, max
ing this year more than ever before,
When they have marketed the crops
and received the money for them, there
will naturally be a greater activity III
the country districts, which will diffues
itself therefrom to all parts of the
Union. Depression during aperiod of
activity, of greater production and bet
ter farm values is, it ia needless to say,
an impossibility.

The law allows the sheriff (see code

their taxes by December 18th. | have
never availed myself of this law and
will not do so this year, but as | have
lost great deal of money by this
course, and have done all the work Of

it seems to me only fair play that the
tax payers pay their taxes before Jan

Congressman Gambler.

Hon. Ezekiel s. Gambler, Jr., will
soon announce himself as a candidate
for representative in Congress from
the First Mississippi district to succeed
himself. 1t is not thought that he will
have any opposition.
Mr.. Gambler has made the district a
splendid representative. His services
have been of the material sort. Soil
improvement, good roads and things of
that kind have occupied his efforts,
rather than long discussions of abstract
propositions before a deaf and unwill-
ing republican majority, He has accom-
plished much and deserves well of his
constituents, and will doubtless be
returned.

A Constitutional Convention Favored.

South Mississippi representatives, in
conference at Hattiesburg, recently
adopted resolutions demanding a more
equitable apportionment in the State
Legislature fairer division of the
common school fund and a change il
theassessment laws of the State for the
purpose of equalizing taxation. The
Legislature is asked to correct the
"glaring inequalities" existing at its
coming session, either by constitutional
amendments or by constitutional con.
vention. The resolutions declare il
favor of the convention, as promising
the speediest results.
The conference marks the beginning
of a strong fight to secure justice fol
the southern portion of the State
which has grown vastly in wealth anC
population during the last decade, The
issues have hitherto been stated in the
public press, and have been under dis
cussion in Mississippi for several years
The justice of the request for reap.
portionment of legislative strength OF
the basis Of present population car
hardly be questioned, and once that is
secured, the cure of the other inequali
ties complained Of will be likely tc
follow as matter of course.
On the issues presented there was, OF
course, no division in the Hattiesburg
caucus But a vigorous debate wa.
precipitated by the resolution favoring
a constitutional convention, the radica
element urging that the convention b,
demanded" while the conservatives
argued that the methods of remedy
should be left to the discretion of the
Legislature. AS adopted, the resolu
ton records the conference as 'favor
Ing the convention, for the reasol
that it promises the speediest results
A number of resolutions, dealing witt
subordinate issues, were wisely left
in committee, the conferees decidinC
not to complichte or confuse the issues
but to make their fight for the BIZ
things first.
The conference will undoubtedly ait
the South Mississippians in their can
paign. 1t has served to unity sent
ment and to weld the members of tt,
Legislature from that portion of tn,
State into a compact organization
Their chances of success are thu.
greatly improved, and while opposition
to the program will doubtless develol
early in the coming session from som,
of the counties in other parts of III,
State which are now enjoying legisla
tive representation grossly dispropol
tionate to their relative population an
voting strength, the very fairness O.
the propositions advanced should wi
them through If a constituting
convention be called, as suggested, it J
not unlikely that the Hattiesburg cor
ference will bring results more far
reaching than its promoters dreamed G
when they issued the call.
