o Goodwater.

The drouth was broken here by
a hard rain on September 7th.
Since then we have had several
ground-soaking rains, putting the
soil in prime condition for wheat
sowing. A far greater acreage of
that cereal was sown in this local
ity this year than there was sown
in either of the two preceding
years.
Sorghum making is nearly COM
pleted hereabouts. The yield is
far less per acre than it was last
year.
Fodder-saving is also done and
most of the fruit drying and pre-
serving.
The rains came too late to ma
terially benefit the corn crop, but
pastures r much improved and
late garden crops were revived and
yielding tolerably we'll.

night of revelry at nearby auto

way of determining whether he was
practically murdered by one or more

A BIG MISTAKE IN A SMALL WAY

In the judgment of the Chronicle
take in the matter of refusing to ap-
point r. l.. Pollard as the represen-
tative of the insurance companies
on the fire insurance rating board.
He had been selected in compliance
with the law, which declares that one
additional member shall be appoint
ed by the governor upon the joint
nomination and recommendation in
writing of all the companies trans
acting the business of fire insurance
in this state.
The Chronicle is assured that the
selection of Mr.. Pollard was wholly
unsolicited by him and was entirely
pliment. That he is by education and
experience eminently qualified for
the position, and that he is a gem
tleman of culture and the highest
personal character, is known of all
men, and the governor reason for
declining to comply with the plain
direction Of the statute Is wholly
unsatisfactory.
Whatever man may think Of Mr..
Williams and his fitness for the Of
flee of governor as compared with
Governor Campbell is matter In
but a small way relevant to the
question in hand.
The essence of the Issue is that
by his action Governor Campbell
makes loyalty to himself and his
political aspirations and approval
