 should Raise Wheat. Eufaula Times. v Considering the high price of wheat more of the grain and be independent of the Western speculators who have run the price of flour up so high tnat many poor families can hardly afford
 Peoples Prayer. Gadsden Journal.
 The prayer of the people when the new offices may be created. The job less politician should not be regarded as ward of the people. Let him hus- tie for himself
 Hot After once. Cullinan Democrat.
 Having canvassed the State for local option: having stood for local option of the Legislathre, Conner now comes out and tries to go Brooks Lawrence one better as a prohibftionist. An honest change Is always proper. but Conner has been so hot after further office that the public may be excused for locking on all his grandstand plays with suspicion.
 Get Land.
 HartselIe Enterprise.
 Farm lands are getting high in Nor gan County. some being held Tor s5o per acre several miles away from the railroad. It is only a question of little time until the lands of this coun try will double and thribble In value. Get some land and stick to it. is good maxim for the young men of this coun- try.
 One Mans whim. Rockford chronicle.
 An extra session of the Alabama July 27. Calling this extraordinary session was business belonging exclu- sively to Governor Conner, and It is to be presumed that he knows of some Changing laws to suit the whim of evesy man who by accident or other wise gets into power is not to the in- terest of those who have to bear the burdens of government.
 Want Good Roads. Centerville Press.
 There is no trouble in securing can didates to run on the prohibition plat good roads question taken up. We don't mean by scattering hand bills with one team pulling so many bales Sf % ye ens bs peOee s.ter pubc fss roads. As much as the country people abuse the automobiles, the owners of the machines are doing more than any one else to bring about a system of good roads in the country.
 Sorry, But Can't Keep It. Troy Herald.
 Some of the Governors suggestions may be good. but the very fact that his hired attorneys. is sufficient to. at least. breed suspicion. We are sorry that 1t Is impossible for us to have that confidence in Governor Conner that we should have in the Chief Executive of the State, but somehow or for some reason we look upon every move of our Governor as tending to promote his selfish interest or his political aspira- himself and he never loses an oppor- tunity to get before the people. e.
 Creating New once. Birmingham Ledger.
 The Ledger has tried to call public attention to the many appointments to newly created offices and to the fact that a movement is to be made to have q lot of offices created even at the extra session to reward men for po- litical work next year. The Eegisla- ture has the power to create new off, ffces but, it shall not be done quietly. yI. .1, I l. n. k-1 and 1t may be that the reasons for each. may be explained. Next year is to be busy year in politics and man on State salary will feel a good deal of enthusiasm, particularly if the office has travelling expenses paid.

 Comer'n Record. Athens Courier. Legislatures are expensive play things, expensive when they legislate for the people. when they act on their own motion, but when they are called to legislate for the purpose of allow ing one man to get "satisfaction," then they are indeed expensive luxuries. There has already been three sessions since his majesty, B. B. Conner, has been in power, and now he finds it nec- essary to further increase the burden by calling another session. Verify. the fellow who almost broke his neck to his mistake. Four sessions of the Leg islature in one term and 1t but little over half gone, Is a record to make by Governor.
