THE POLITICAL HOROSCOPE.

Since the adjournment OF the
Legislature last May, there has
been much speculation as to who
will aspire for governor in 1912.
There are other> who are won
dering what Yates will do or
what the fighting ex governor
wants. Yates came forth from
Morgan county as a mighty
rushing wind,'' and swept over
the entire state, carrying "every,
thing with him. "He rose,
reigned and fell" even though
he be like truth crushed to earth,
riseth again. Yates proved to
be very popular and is popular
yet.
Governor Deneen was re elect.
ed last fall amidst the fiercest
campaigns ever before waged in
the state; what the govern or
wants for the future is not known
but it is evident that the govern
or is an astute politician-the
governor has had manv unjust
battles to fight and much severe
criticism, but won out every time
he will probably get what he
wants.
Senator Cullom will probably
not live to see his term out, and
if he does he will hardly be
candidate for rec t on.
There is some talk of Speaker
Shurtleff being strong candi-
date for governor in 1912.
Andrew Russell will make a
strong Candida for anything he
aspires for. His term expires as
state treasurer No ember 1910.
For Sc rotary of state. it is net
thought that James A. Rose will
again aspire Mr.. Rose has had
the place so long he is hard to be
defeated.
Superln tendent Blair will be a
candidate for re. detection on his
merits-he has made a good rec
ord and will win, That Office
will come up next year.
A state senator is to be elected
and Sangamon county will return
Senator Hay who has made a
good record.
In the county of Sangamon we
are to elect several persons to
important positions next year.
which POSITIONS are: Sheriff
County Treasurer, County Clerk,
County Superintendent of Edu
cation and County Judge.
There is also a Congressman
for the 21st Congressional dis
trict TO be elected.
Judge Murray will hey ond all
doubt, aspire to succeed himself,
so also vii Charles Opel. The
Judge is almost considered an in
vincible candidate. 1t is not
known who will hoist their flags
for sheriff and county treasurer.
We have no choices just now to
present, but DR.. j. A. Wheeler
has been spoken of several times
as the logical candidate for sher
if. Dr. Wheeler, of course,
would make an acceptable man
for the place. The contest will
be spirited one regardless as to
whom are candidates, and the
only advice we venture to offer is
this: that good competent men
be put up and let the primaries

TARIFF AND COTTON GROWER
Senator Smith Wishes Not to Fix
Price of Cotton by Statute But to
Abolish Unfair Methods.

Washington, March 19.-In reply
to articles in various newspapers Of
the North and South Criticiziug his
position with respect to the price of
cotton, Senator E. D. Smith, Of South
Carolina. today issued the following
statement:
"It seems strange that newspapers
which are supposed to have an intel
ligent idea of men and affairs Of ma
tional interest should be so absurdly
ignorant of the real issue involved in
my campaign in South Carolina last
year.
"At no time or place have I said
that I would work for the passing of
national law fixing arbitrarily the
price Of cotton at 15 cents, but | did
say, and do now reiterate, that the
producers Of this great wealthproduc-
ing article were and are entitled to a
square deal. That the national gov
ernment should see to it that the ex-
changes should be so regulated that
the prices made by them should be
the price Of the purchase or sale of
the commodity, and that no exchange

Mr.. Rutherford, who recently NOV

The peach crop is badly injured but

how it could escape amidst the kind

If any Of you have a good gentle
horse of a kind disposition and also
a stylish appearance that you would
like to trade or swap which ever
You choose to call it, just notify one
Of our neighbor boys who is in that
business now and he will be glad to
consult with you.
Mr.. Foy, the stove doctor, was
through this section last Saturday.
If our stove is out Of fix just let
NJ. Foy prescribe and treat it and it
vii ::cover at once. He has had a
great deal Of experience in that busi-
res.
The grain crop is looking very we'll
now. An application Of nitrate of
sode in two or three weeks from now
will give good results. We made an
experiment on oats with it last year
and where We put the nitrate of soda
doubled those that didn't have any.
There has been a quantity of grain
sown and We hope to see an excellent
crop raised.
The farmers have almost quit SOW
ing wheat but the present price Of
flour will cause more Of it to be sown
next fall I think.

Of plowing to do yet before We will

good idea to prepare land well by
thoroughly plowing it before p1antli =

There seems to be about as much

the appearance Of the wagons loaded
with it as they leave out Of town. 1t
pays to fertilize what we plant we'll

der Of any such cotton on contract.
Secondly, that as we are compeli-
ed, by the nature Of the case, to sell
our cotton in the open markets Of the
world, that We be allowed to buy
such things as we need wherever we
could purchase them cheapest. If, in
the open markets our cotton is worth
but and 10 cents and less, it is an
iniquity to force US to buy the manu-
factured necessities on a basis artif-
cially and arbitrarily fixed by law
that would require 15-cent cotton to
meet.
1.-THE South would be perfectly
willing to sell her cotton under the
operation Of the great law Of supply
and demand if she were allowed to
purchase what she needs under the
same law. And any fair-minded cit
izen. whether he lives in Jacksonville,
Fla, or Boston, Mass, ought to have
sense and patriotism enough to see
the infamy Of forcing the producers
Of the real wealth Of the country to
sacrifice their profits to the great
trusts and combines by the operation
Of an iniquitous protective tariff law.
