TILLMAN'S START.

An Interesting story is related in
connection with Senator Tillman's
ideals Of agricultural education. 1t
was through a rebuke administered
to him some years ago when he tried
to explain his ideals that he entered
politics
There was an old agricultural coll
lege in the state in those days In
connection with it a meeting was call
ed at Columbia, S. c, Mr.. Tillman,
who was then a farmer living on his
lower plantation, attended the meet
ing. He tried to address the meeting,
but 1t is related that John c. Haskell,
son-in-law of Wade Hampton. rath-
er intimated that Mr.. Tillman knew
little about the subject, and he was
not afforded an opportunity to air his
views.
Mr.. Tillman smarted under what
he regarded as a rebuke from one
of the leading aristocrats' of the state.
Returning to his plantation, he wrote
an exposition OF his views on agri-
IL " bhS
Cotton Planter, then an. Influential
journal among southern agricultural
interests.
This article attracted attention
everywhere, and Mr.. Tillman. still a
farmer without political ambitions,
was asked to address a melting at
Bonneville. He accepted. His views
made a hit. He was asked to make
another address. He accepted. Orz
ganization was effected among the
farmers, and in less than a year Mr.
Tillman was elected governor of South
Carolina.
Primaries came into vogue in
South Carolina about that time, and
the aristocracy of old families who
had been in political control were un-
horsed under the leadership of TILL
man 1t was as governor that Mr.
Tillman brought about the establish
ment of the Clemson and Winthrop
schools and 1t was the repuke from
Haskell that really forced Tillman
into politics.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-

WILL THE MILL GO TO PORTLAND

The Portland Oregonian announces
that the new textile manufacturing
town of Gordon Falls, in >Multnomah
county, will be founded by the re-
moval of the Pendleton woolen mill
to that place, as a neuclus for large
manufacturing center.
Will Pendleton pride and Pehdleton
capital allow this property to be
moved to Multnomah county? Is
there not enough business enterprise
in this city to keep that institution
here and operate it? Will Pendleton
sit still and allow her resurces to be
plucked away, piece meal?
Pendleton has received greater ad-
vertising from this mill and its pro-
ducts than from any other one indus
try in the city. Her name has been
carried to the ends of the world
through this institution. 1t has fur
nished her a good payroll, has pur-
chased her wool, has kept money in
circulation in her channels Of trade
and has made her name known far
and wide. Now will she permit it to
be moved away?
1t can be made to pay a profit here.
Pendleton is in the heart of the wool
belt. There is a demand for its pro-
ducts. 1t is already established here
and can be started within a wek, If
Pendleton capital will say the word.
But there is another side to the
question, also. Perhaps 1t will be
better to have 1t moved away. Per-
haps it will be best for Pendleton to
wipe the entire institution and all its
appurtenances from the map of Pen
dleton and then let some new blood
and new capital start anew. 1t has
been hoodoo, It seems, in many
ways.
So It may be best to obliterate every
vestige and memory of the present
wooden mill and then get out after
some energetic new blood to make a
fresh start and place Pendleton on the
industrial map again.
This side of the question is worthy
of thought, also.

THE WASTE OF CIVILIZATION.

Have you ever thought of the viii.
full and foolish waste of money, time
and energy demanded by modern civ
ilization?
ITake the waste Of fashion, for in

ion decree that hat or dress is "out
of style" and no matter If it has not
been worn but once or not at all, It
is discarded. The price is thrown
away. the energy and time used In
making it were worse than wasted.
Manufacturers vie with each other
in supplanting each others products,
in order that people will be forced to
buy something new every month or
every year Hats, shoes, suits, Jewell

the local option fight In this state
prevented the passage of the equal
suffrage amendment two years ago,
Il Is believed.
Had the women left local option
and prohibition alone they would
probably now be voting in Oregon.
So Oregon suffragists will be satisfied
to make the fight separately and
alone.
These two great reforms belong to-
gether and should go hand in hand,
but If the prohibitionlsts are so selfish
and narrow as to throw their friend
overheard when their own interests
seem to be threatened, well and good.
The women can fight alone. They
have always borne their own burdens
and a part of mans beside, in the
past They can do so in future.

IF THEY ONLY KNEW.

There are millions of acres Of land
lying idle and within easy reach Of
the large cities of the United States.
There are millions of people who
would be much better off IL they were
engaged in cultivation of this land.
Very many of them would be upon
the farms IL they only felt that they
could succeed They could succeed
by education. If these people only
knew how nearly agriculture can be
reduced to an exact science the prob
lem of bringing landless people into
contact with the barren lands would
be easy.

The fight promises to be a lively one between these four entries. Already the Governor is entertaining visitors from Jackson County interested Tn the candidacy of young Mir. MoCutchen.
 This delegation is composed of the following gentlemen: Judge C. L. Cargyle, Judge John F. Proctor. A. kk Moody, John B. Tallsy and Sneriff John L.. Staples. These men came down to Montgomery Tuesday morning and were closeted with the Governor at two intervals, once In the morning and once in the afternoon.
 The plum is c desirable one. such as are most Probate Judeships in Ala bama. It is conservativeiy estimated not fall a trine under $5,o00 year. Jackson County is in many ways one of the wealthiest pieces of territory in North Alabama.
 Young Mir. Mccutchen is hardly past the thirty-year mark and Is represent ed as fully competent to fill the office, There was no delegation Tuesday to see the Governor in the interest of the other three candidates, but written recommendations are said to be. on file with the Governor telling of the fitness of these men for the office. J. A. Kyle. who is a candidate, Is well remembered In Montgomery for his having served as Secretary of the State Senate at the last session. He is at present Register in Chancery in Jackson County. He is said to also have a strong endorsement for the Probate Judgeship.
 The unexpired term of the late Judge McCutchen is approximately two years. The successor of the appointee. who- ever he is to be, will be elected in 1910.

CANDIDATES TIME
LAST DAY TO DEAL WITH PRU-
 BATE JUDGES.
All Names Go on the Ballot Unless Candidates Ask Probate Judges to Withhold TheEa--Re-
 publicans.

If there are disgruntled candidates of any political party in Alabama they had better get of the field today. It is the last opportunity they will have to jump the race. This is the twen- tieth day before the election and the limit of time when nominees can ask probate judges to take their names off the ballots.
 After the nominees have been cer- tified by the party officials to the Secretary of State and that officer has in turn certified the lists out to the probate judges, the latter have exclu- sive charge of the ballot making. Ana unless by 12 o'clock tonight dissatis- fled candidates notify the probate judges of their aversion to running. their names will surely appear on the official ballot November opposite the offices to which they were nominated.
 It is commonly accepted that only one set of nominees Is likely to with draw from the field. These are the fourteen nominees of the so-called Dav- idson faction of the Republican party. Supporters of the Thompson or admin istration wing of that party. who are in charge of the State campaign at Birmingham. made desperate effort to save a split in the c. O. P. ranks of Alabama by heading off the David son faction before the males left the office of Secretary of State Frank N. Julian.
 This effort. begun only two days before the time limit expired. was commendable for enterprise and near ly resulted in saving the day. All but two of the nominees. for the sake If harmony. requested the Secretary of State to withhold their names from the probate judges. But as these did not so signify their wishes the Sec retary of State was left with no nl- ternative but to let the names go on out
 The probate judge has to keep the name of any nominee off the ballot who asks that such be done no later than twenty days prior to the elec- tion. It Is possible that the Davidson themselves of this opportunity and tried to get word to every probate judge but no general movement of this kind has been heard of. As the nominees are for either State offices or Presidential and Vice Presidential electors with the exception of Con- gressman of the Fourth District. 1t would be necessary to address every probate judges in the State before there would be an entire withdrawal of each candidate.
 Some speculation is being indulged as to the poll of the Republicans In the general election for the national ticket. Some predict that Taft will l get more votes than the Roosevelt i poll four years Lgo. Others say that | his figures will fall far below. It Is | not probable that the present effort to | make gingery Republican showing | has ever been equalled in Alabama.

UNLICENSED AGENTS
OF INSURANCE IS
 AFTER THEM.
CIaneey's Trial win Take Place in Bir- mfngham--The Company Did Not Comply With Law
 fn Any Way.

No new developments came Tuesday in the case of J. C. Clancy, the alleged agent of the Georgia Cooperative Fire Insurance Company of Savannah, who was arrested in Birmingham by direc- tion of the Department of Insurance. on the charge of violating that sec- ton of the code which prohibits any insurance company or it's agents from doing business in Alabama without a license. The trial of the young agent will take place in Birmingham.
 The penalty for violation of Section 71s9 of the insurance code Is a fine of not less than s1o0 nor more than $500 and imprisonment in the county jail for not more than thirty days.
 It is expected that Hon. Frank N. Julian, Insurance Commissioner. will not relent In the prosecution of the case in Birmingham. The depart ment is said to have had reports of persons soliciting insurance in Birm- ingham without a license, and sharp eye has been kept on the territory for several days. It is In line with the very determined policy of the Com missioner to enforce to the letter Sec tion 71S9 of the code. Repeated warn ings have been Issued against solicit ing business of any insurance charac- ter without license.
 So important does the department consider this feature of the law that all foreign insurance companies before they are licensed to carry on business in this State are required to sign an overh cad writing affidavit This pledges the company to take out a license not only for itself. but for every authorized agent in it's employ in Ala bama. This serves to impress on the companies the license requirements of the law. Under the terms of the af- hdavit. the company must submit to a revocation of it's license If any viola ton of the statute Is proven.
 Tn the case of the Georgia Co-opera- tive Fire Insurance Company, the de- partment denies having ever licensed the company to operate in this state Nor do the records of the office show that any licenses have ever been taken out by any of its alleged agents. Be- fore doing business in Alabama, the company should have not only taken out a license for itself and representa- lives, but should have done business with the State Treasurer. such as de- posting with him something like 3i0,- 900 of improved securities, a requre- ment that Georgia makes of all for eign companies of this character doing business In that State. The company in question is an assessment concern.
