Raise Some and Cut Some.

Conspicuous among the events of the
legislative session was the opening of the
way for salary legislation, which has
been under consideration as a leading
topic of discussion for some two years.
The special committee having filed a re-
port and under authority from the gov
ernor, a bill was introduced in the hous
by Stockett of Wilkinson county, pro-
viding for the specified changes in sal
aries, and referred to the committee on
fees and salaries. The bill increases the
salary of the governor from $500 to
$4,000; the secretary of state from p
5000 to $500; decreases the salaries
of the railroad commissioners from $2,-
OOO to 81 1900; decreases the salary of
the insurance commissioner from $4,000
to $4,000, and that of the pe~nitentiary
trustees from S 2 1000 to $500. The bill
is drafted along the lines of the special
committee's report, and it is likely will
develop much opposition, both in com
mittee and on the floor, since it is
claimed that 1t ~'equalizes left-handed."

CAUCUS PLAYS WAITING GAME.
Nomination Will Be Thrown Into Open
Session,

Another couple of ballots in the sena-
torial nominating caucus, without result
other than to indicate the hopeless
ness of the tangle in which the body is
involved in this famous political game,
was the program of Thursday after
moons session of the democratic caucus.
In fact, it begins to look very much
as if the members engaged in caucus
ing as party adherents will continue to
play the waiting game until the legls-
lature itself, in joint session, takes up
the work. 1t is now believed that this
is part of the game that is being played
by some of the managers, with a view
to throwing the contest into the Off
cial body, and so reach the coveted
open ballot" after ALL
1t is quite significant that, notwith-
standing all the dark horse ak and
speculation, the animal has not showed
his nose as yet, the several men who
have received scattering votes in caucus
having failed to develop any following
or support as actual c~ontenders.
Without incident or preliminaries of
any kind, after the double roll call,
Chairman Street gave the terse order.
"The tcllers will prepare for the bal
lot" and the game was on. There was
the same absence of enthusiasm noted
in the assembly, and, in fact, there was
a spirit of restlessness and nervous
languor prevalent, as though the major
ity were tired of their job and devoutly
wished that the thing was settled and
out of the way. Even the motion to ad,
iourn, which was fought with some de-
gree of force and spirit yesterday, was
adopted today with scarcely any opposi.

THE SENATORIAL CONTEST.
Practically No Change Since the Ballot.
ing Began.

When the legislative caucus adjourned
Monday night, after the ninth ballot in
the series to decide the choice of the
body for a senatorial candidate, out of
the iona fide field of seven regularly
entered the deadlock was as decided and
apparently indeterminate as at the be,
ginning. The proceedings closed with
tardaman in the lead.
The balloting showed a larger number
of men present and voting than on
either of the other occasions, the highest
number hitherto being 40, leaving II
not voting, while on one ballot Monday
night, there were IT'S, or within six Of
the total voting strength, which is 1s1.
The best that Gov. Vardaman has done
so far was on the ninth ballot, when he
came within twelve votes of a decision.
They are all still in, and though they
regret the ~prolongation of the deadlock,
the fight is going to be conducted to a
finish. Nothing is said of a dark horse,
and the determination is apparently to
fight it out, though something may yet
be run by way of a surprise.

WHEN DINNER COMES

A good appetite is the best sauce.
1t goes a long way toward helping in

Many persons have found that Grape
Nuts food is hot only n~ourishing but
is a great appetizer. Even children
like the taste of it and grow strong
and rosy from its use.
1t is especially the food to make a
weak stomach strong and create an
appetite for dinner.

While if I go without any breakfast l

Nuts for breakfast seem to make a
healthy appetite for dinner.
MY 13-months-old grandson had
been very sick with stomach trouble
during the past summer, and finally we
put him on Grape-Nuts. Now he is
