Congressman Ben Humphreys.

We are glad to note that Hon.
Ben. G. Humphreys continues to
improve from his recent illness.
Under the care of scientific physi-
clans he has shown wonderful i'm
provement, and by the time arrives
for his return to the capital at
Washington, he will be prepared to
take up the work he has 50 ably
begun.
Last week tho Congressional
Democratic Executive Committee of
this district convened, and declared
Mr.. Humphreys reelected, without
opposition, as. Congressman from
the "Shoestring District
It is conceded by all who are
identified or acquainted with Con-
gressional matters that Ben Hum
phreys is the best qualified man for
the job in the district, and his rep
utation and high standing with his
peers at Washington, FORCES him to
the front as one of the ablest Con-
gressmen in the South.
Mr.. Humphreys exerts a great
influence over the Congressional
body in which he sits, and his con-
stituency a always feel assured
that so long as he has a string on
our affairs, they will be in the best
of hands. His toga is a cinch as
long as he wants it.

growth of business in his Office, Mr.,
Gillespie said that Harrison county
easily led all other counties in point Of

Eggs by the Million.

Ferty-iive million eggs have been
placed in cold storage by the ware
housemep Of Newark, to remain there
until the high prices Of last winter are
duplicated The eggs have been ship
ped into Newark since April and are
mostly from Indiana, Michigan and
Ohio. They were purchased at an aver
age price Of from % IA to "a cents a
dozen. Two cents dozen is added to
cover insurance, storage costs, etc,
which brings the fetal cost up to
about 28 cents a dozen.
If eggs retail at 45 cents dozen for
other than the "strictly fresh" as
they did last winter, there will be a
profit of19 cents a dozen between the
warehouse and the consumer. The
warehousemen are frank to say that
they believe their storage Of eggs will
help put the price next winter at the
high level of last winter. Thus the to-
tai profit of the stored eggs would be
something over 100000.
Dealers in Jersey say that there Is
little prospect that the output Of the
Jersey hen will decrease in price. A
prime Jersey favorite is tie white Leg
hern egg. For some reason the white
Leghorn seems to be either idle or per-
manently decreasing in numbers.
They say that thus far this season
there have been but comparatively
few Of the white Leghorn eggs on the
market.

Harmon the Man.

Gov. Judson Harmon, of Ohio, who
was renominated by the Buckeye
State and is being doomed for. the
Presidency, made great speech in
accepting denomination. Gov. Har-
mon said in part:
81 shall keep on trying to make the
phrase serving the people a true de-
scription, and not false pretense or a
figure Of speech. 1t expresses the vital
idea of democratic government.
ga Chief Magistrate does not serve
the people who uses the powers in
trusted to him to advance bis own or
any other than the public interest, or
fails to use it to safeguard the general
welfare whenever it is endangered by
neglect, competence, wrongdping,
or the passage OF unwise or unconsti-
tutional laws.
"fhe voters of the country have
often been i'm posed on by tariff taxes
levied astenslbly for public revenue,
bat really for private profit. But they
were never before fooled by promise
of substantial reductions ofthese taxes
broken in their faces as soon as their
votes were secured. A power so inso-
lent in its control of the law-making
powers must be overthrown without
delay, and will be If the American
people have not lost Their spirit.
"rhere can be no relief as long as
the interests which profit through tar
if laws are allowed to frame them, as
thus far they have always done. 1t
has just been shown, in the most
striking way, that these have COM
piete mmand of the Republican par
ty, as an organization. insurgency is
merely protest. They scott at it. The
only agency by which they can be dis
lodged is the Democratic party.
tBut good government means just
the same in Washington as it does ia
Columbus, and the discussion which
the state campaign involves shall help
the voters to elevate the public service
in both. capitals at once | shall be dou-
bly, glad to have had part in them"

Down in the State of Georgia they
have pea y orchards where you can
walk q sn.le Ia straight line aud not
ge. beyond a row Of peach trees.
Af.er the Civil War any one could
go through the same country and see
nothing but corn fields. Now more
peaches are produced on Georgia sell
than in any other portion Of the Unit
ed States, with the possible exception
Of California.
This revolution in horticulture, ac-
cording to the Bonkkeeper, was brought
about by Connecticut Yankee. J. II.
Hale AS boy began his start In life by
carrying fruit and truck in baskets to
Hartford, Conn, and yselling 1t from
house to house. He finally accumulated
enough money toplant little orchard
Of his own In the suburbs of Hartford
on ground that people said was unfit
for any crop.
Hale thought differently and when
his orchard grew from an acre to over
leo acres and his income from the
peaches to thousands OF dollars year
they realized that they had been
mistaken. One winter Mr.. Hale
thought he would take southern trip
aud going through Georgia he noticed
the red clay soil.
He made up his mind that here would
be good place to grow peaches al
though not tree was 10 sight Of the
LEGALITY he visited nor were there any
for fifty miles around. Then he took
two or three men from his New Eng
land orchard, put them on the place,
and planted the trees.
Today he can count 100000 trees IN
his Southern orchards, to say nothing
Of those in Connecticut. Not merely
carloads, but trainlosds are sent to the
Northern market as days SHIPMENT
In the season, while sometimes 800 ne
gro laborers are picking, boxing and
loading the fruit
Peach growers from all over tho
country followed Mr.. Hale to Georgia
and other Southern States, and or
chards In the vicinity Of his can be
seen ranging from 100000 TO 100000
trees, from which the harvest goes not
only to the North, butacross the ocean
to Europe.
This is why the Connecticut Yankee
is now called the peach king; he owns
more trees Of this variety than any
other America and has made over
81 100000 in the last twenty years
simply because he knows how to raise
the fruit.
