PART VICTORY FOR TRACTION Got Verdict in Sum of
 $l5,555.35. JURY DECIDED THREE COUNTS Their Deliberations Lasted About
 Six Hours Only. Claim. of Original Traction Company Were Considered But Present Compsny's Claim Did Not
 Enter Verdict.

The sum of SI5.555.35 was awarded the Montgomery Traction sCompany Saturday by the jury in the suit of the Traction Company against the Montgomery Light and Water Power Company. The jury returned from It's deliberations at noon Saturday, after having remained out about six hours altogether. S. D. Cater, foreman, declared the verdict.
 In arriving at the decision, the claims of the present Montgomery Montgomery Street and Suburban Rail- way Company were eliminated, the claim of the original Traction Com pany being allowed.
 The Montgomery Traction Company had entered suit against the Power Company for s55. included in three counts. It was alleged sAS,507 was due. because of violation of the contract between the two parties which specified that at no time was a rate cheaper than ;1;-2, cents per Kill owat hour to be extended to any con sumer unless 1t was at the same time extended to the Traction Company 5 Alleging that this cheaper rate was extended elsewhere, the Traction Company claimed the $4s,5o7 as an amount having been paid in excess of tho contracted amount. The second charge is that $3.5T7.50 was paid in excess, owing to a fast" meter which had been installed by the Power Com. pany. and the third count that s. Ss2.s3 had been paid in excess, owing to that amount of power which had been consumed by storage battery.
 The verdict was found on all three counts. ,..E1

The KehOe-MayS Contest.

This contest has brought out some
very peculiar ideas as to our primary
elections. Prominent papers and
people are frantically Illuminating
against an examination in TO the
methods employed in this election,
claiming that the Congressional Com
mittee have no other function that to
tabulate the vote as sent in, and
> ubiish the result.
Unfortunately this class Of talk
tt mes from the Mays faction entirely.
They 60 SO far as to uphold the self
confessed frauds that were practiced,
Ind arraigning those who seek for
I'm honest election as kickers. Fraud
initiates every contract and is always
Epen to investigation. To deny this
would be to deprive the people of
privileges that are as sacred as their
birth right. To call it democratic to
yield to such pretenses is to nullify
the most sacred of democratic prin-
ciples.
AS the PILOT has repeatedly stated
this is not a question of the election
of either candidate, but of having an
honest election under the present
Primary Election law. There is no
better time, nor a more palmer case
at issue, than is presented right now
in this contest. Let it be settled, and
by such authority as will be respected
and obeyed by the voters.

The Hearst Independent Party is
holding its convention in Chicago
this week. Hearst is out with a state
ment that he will not accept the
nomination for presidency. The aim
of this organization is primarily to
draw votes from the democratic party,
but the result of its efforts vii, not
probably affect the total vote given
either Taft or Bryan. Hearst's papers
are more anarchistic than anything
else, and it is from that source that
the party viii secure its vote.

Cotion's Weight in Commerce.

Preliminary figures of American
commerce during the fiscal year Just
closed clearly indicate the importance
of cotton in our foreign trade. In the
value of exports of domestic mer-
chandise there is a falling off in 1908
from 1907 of SIS ,9O5 ,926. An exhibit
rs to five leading classes of exports of
an aggregate value of S94O, 29O, 74S, or
something more than 81 per cent OF
the total value of exports of domes-
tic merchandise, shows that the
value of breadstuff exports in 1908 was
S31, 1O2, 1868 greater than in 1907, of
mineral oil SIS, 644 $50 greater, of meat
and dairy products 50, S43, 712 less, Of
cattle, sheep and hogs s5,043, Az less,
and of cotton SAP, s3S ,22O less. Manu-

Cursed BY Politics.

Manifestly Texas is politics cursed,
Though the State is overwhelmingly
and unalterably democratic, and
though its affairs are as we'll managed
as could in reason be expected, it is
politics day in and day out, week in
and week out, month in and month
out and year in and year out.
Not only is the constant agitation
OF political questions and political men
racking upon the nerves, but is as
assuredly sitting to the sense of those
who would, if they could, devote
their time, energy and means to the
upbuilding of the State.
The never-ceasing and reverend
ing grind of this man for that office
or that man for this place is nauseat-
ing and disquieting to men who
would prefer to do and who do things
of material benefit and genuine aid to
society as whole.
Here we have the largest State in
the Union, State that gives immed-
late promise of a more extensive
development and development cover
ing more varied and valued re-
sourcefulness than any half dozen of
It's contemporaries combined, and to
think that it is dWarfed and han
mered down and kept back by the
continuous clamOr of place-seekers
and their cohorts is sickening in the
extreme.
Texas and Texans for the proud
sake of Texas need to turn over a
new leaf and to do business for the
material welfare of those now living
and those who are to come after us.
Let there be to the world an unfold
ing and making known the many
good things in this State; let there be
an awakening to the sublime heights
to which Texas may reach if care and
attention are but given the wonderful
resources and innumerable undeveI-
Oped, though valued and almost
limitless evidences of raw materials
Astounding within her marvellous con
fines.
Would the people actively and ag-
excessively ply the amount of time,
energy and means to boosting the
un discovered but easily discoverable
material wealth in Texas it could but
revOlutionize our pre- sent civilization
We speak confidently of the ease with
which undiscovered wealth can be
discovered, for we but judge in doing
so the future by the past, and what
has been done has come very largely
as an incident or consequence, for
none of us have been as active and
pushing as we might have BEEN

KehOe-Mays Contest.

Regardless of what the outcome
may be, the Kehoe-Mays contest is
one of the best things that has ever
happened in Florida politics, and we

The East Bay Canal.

The project outlined in a recent
issue of the PILOT of connecting the
waters of Wetappo creek on East
Bay, with the ApalachicOla river,
meets with the hearty approval of the
leading men of Jackson county along
the ChipOla river, and those residing
upon the Choctawhatchee and Flint
rivers.
To those sections this route would
afford effective and cheap water
Transportation to tide water, and
place the large interior towns on
parity with those of the coast.
The cost of this project would be
very small. The funds required to
build it could undoubtedly be obtain
ed through subscription to the stock
or bonds by citizens Of the territory
interested. 1t would take so little in
comparison with any other under
taking of the kind that no difficulty
would be met in securing the neces-
sary money. All that is required is
that men of known standing and
ability take charge of the project.
Regardless of all other waterway
Improvements, this small one, with
its tremendous possibilities for the
territory outlined, should receive i'm
mediate attention, and the work be
inugurated at once.
