farm management, it will not be dif-
ficult to see how Il corn crop will yield
more net profit than a cotton crop.
More net profit, mind you; we do not
care for the gross profit. 1t is the
money that Il farmer a lay away
that he should be interested in. A
cotton crop makes a zig income, but
the big outgo is right there beside the
big income. With corn under good
management. there is relatively more
profit left behind; so much profit
that, while corn will not replace cot
ton as the great southern crop, it
ought to be a close second and help to
make cotton raising more gainful. At
least, there will be none to dispute
that the raising Of more cotton bodies

more corn gives bright promise of a
more prosperous south and more
tlritty farmers. Home raised corn
will keep money at home. that now
goes to enrich other sections: it will

ENDORSES TILLMAN's SPEECH,
pertinent Comments of the Leading
Newspaper Of Kentuckey.
Louisville Courier Journal,

lttlls
Senator Tillman sometimes con-
ceals some sound ideas in a tempest
OF b~llingsgate. The result is that
MS audiences do not always take him
seriously. His speech in the senate
Monday was vigorous, but it was not
'b1lllngsgate, and it contained sound
Ideas which were not concealed. It is
a speech which even persons least
friendly toward the South Carolinian
may take seriously. From the reports
or the scene in the senate during it's
delivery the senate itself took the
drubblng very seriously. That is as it
should be. The words IF Mr.. Till
man Should be marked, learned and
~lnwardly digestcd by The members of
th"t most august deliberative body
III the world.' That is, the greater
part or them should be, since once or
twice the speaker lapsed into preju-
diced utterance. The advice given
was wholesome; the political ideals
expressed were for the most part
worth while: The stirring he gave the
senate for its scrviIity and its cow
aardicc was timely.
The substance Of the Tillmon
speech was a protest against exccll-
tive nsurpation and congressional
submission. From a strong arm Of
the national system the congress has
been reduced by Theodore Roosevelt
to a simple machine for recording his
own will. Senators and representa-
tlvcs are too deficient in courage to
resist MS encroachments which
amount to the conversion Of a great
republic into an autocracy. Inciicn-
tally, it was a protest against a spirit
in the legislators and in the people,
too, to yield weakly to meordorc
RooseTeH's lust for power and to
be taken in by his professions of un-
rivallcd purity. incompatible homes
ty and inspired ~infallibility.
If the Roosevelt regime has shown
one Thin" it has disclosed one weak
ness Of our system of government.
When our constitutional poliiy was
adopted some Of The Europeans saw
at oncc an experiment that would
fail. Nearly all the scepticS based
their doubts Of II government. how
ever. upon the chances of the capture
or The sovereignty by Il h~yStcrical
mob. %outvotin@ the conservatives. To

from possible than the TRANSFORMED
tor 1T Il system of so many cheeks
and balances into a onc.man system.
Thomas Darlington Macaulay. who
saw visions Of mob rule. would rub
his eyes to see the autocratic tendency
Of the Roosevelt method. Hc might
figure il out that Roosevelt derives
MS strength to accomplish what he
does simply by appealing to The mob
and that he is but an autocratic per-
sonification Of thc rabblc. Ills auto
cratic tendency. as distinct from re-
publicanism submerged by the mob,
is plain. nevertheless. II is Il remark
able. but not pleasing, p2rverSion Of
the American ideal.
The situation demands Just such IL
treatment as Mr.. TilLman rave it. The
members Of both houses need lust
such a repmmand as he gave them.
The cowardice of the representatives
and senators of the majority is a
public scandal.
