INSURGENCY IN NEXT WEEKS
ELECTION.

Partisan strife in the campaign now
drawing to a close has been so intense
that one of the minor elements in the
struggle has been given less considera-
ton thsn it deserves. This Is the ele-
ment of Republican insurgency.
Since the party primaries and con-
ventions we have been thinking of the
campaign as a fight between RepubIi-
cans and Democrats. In its broader
sense it is a contest of this character.
at the same time, the results of the
election will mean much to the cause
Of insurgency. When the votes. are
counted, insurgency, or the progress
give movement within the Republican
party, will have been advanced or vii.
have been checked, according to the
showing insurgent candidates for State
Offices and for Congress have made at
the polls.
The insurgent leaders in Congress
have come from communities where the
people have been trying, for several
years, to work out progressive reforms
through the agency of the Republican
party. These leaders, with their people
behind them, have either captured the
Republican organizations in their own
communities, or have forced reaction
airy Republican organizations to make
concessions as to candidates, policies,
and platforms, thereby affording an
opportunity to accomplish reforms
within the party.
These groups of progressives have
become so numerous, and have formed
an alliance so effective, that they are
today in position to bid for control
of the Republican party in the nation.
The treatment insurgent candidates
receive at the polls on Tuesday, there
fore, is bound to determine, in great
measure, the extent of the insurgent
influence in Republican affairs in the
future
Regular Republicans, insurgent Re-
publicans, and Democrats have express
ed the opinion that most of the Dem
ocratie gains in the Congressional cleo
tions will be made in communities
where there are no insurgent candi
dates. The belief is that where the
people have an opportunity to make
their demands felt through a progress
sive Republican, they viii vote for a
progressive Republican, and that where
they have no such opportunity, they
will vote for Democrat.
One cons Iteration that makes the in
surgent feature of the election particu-
larly important is the Presidency in
1912. There is no doubt that, regard
less of Tuesdays results, the progress
sives will make vigorous attempt to
control the next Republican national

LEPROsY AND FALSE HAIR.

The Savannah Press warns women
who wear false hair to make every
effort to learn where it comes from.
Advices from Detroit state that Sa-
rah Hamlin, clerk in a hair store,
is confined in Detroit hospital with
what prominent physicians say is
leprosT. contracted by making rats"
and other hair ornaments. The
young woman was engaged in MAX
ing and selling false hair Of all kinds.
Some time ago she noticed a Pc
culiar skin trouble on her scalp and
hands. The blotches grew in num-
Der and size, and at last, frightened,
she consulted physicians. Two doc
tors declared she had leprosy 9th
ers doubted its being the white mall
ady, BAT all agreed on its being of
mysterious origin and undoubtedly
caused by handling false hair. She
will be isolated until full diagnosis
has been made.

aope and Asia Minor, blonde hair from
northern Europe and the Caucasus,
brown hair from Germany and Aus
tria. and black hair from Italy, Tur-
key, Armenia and other countries.
The Press says former Savannah
lady who is now on a visit there
tells of a clerk in a store in Pitts
burg, the city where she now lives,
catching leprosy from hair brought
from China. The wearing of rats,
switches and braids when it is not
Rnowm from where they come is full
of danger.

MIR. RODDENBERY.

The result of the primary election
to choose a successor to the late Con
gresham Griggs was a signal vic
tory for Hon. s. A. Roddenbery of
Thomas county. While it is true
that a comparatively light vote was
polled throughout the district he has
a decisive majority over his oppo-
nents, both of whom are prominent
and popular gentlemen-a fact that
is complimentary to him and graft
flying to his friends.
The News joins in congratulations
to the congressman-elect. We be-
lieve he will be the congressman of
all of the people, and will devote
his ability and energy to their SER
vice. In the discharge of the duties
Of the high Office he is soon to oc-
cupy he will be entitled to and
should have the sympathy and aid
Of all the people regardless of how
they voted last Thursday.

Twenty Million Bales.

From the Farmers Union News.
We trust that the farmers will not
lose their heads and plant all their
available lands in cotton. If they
should go wild over planting cotton
as they did few years ago the south
would produce in 1910 from one to
two million bales of cotton more than
the demand. We do not believe, how
ever, that this will be the case. We
believe that each individual farmer
will feel that he will be benefited
by growing his own supplies regard.
less OF the amount of cotton grown
by others. If this is done by each
individual farmer then there will not
be more cotton produced than will
demand a good price.

COTTON IN THE OLD WORLD.

COTTON IN THE OLD WORLD.
The rise in the price of cotton (it
has almost doubled in the past two
years. calls attention to the efforts
which have been and are being made
to grow it in greater quantities
abroad. Since the high price that
effort has been redoubled by the gov
ernments of Great Britain, Germany
and France, and by the corporations
and capitalists of these countries in
Africa and Asia. One of the proofs
of this is that the government of
Great Britain will pass a law grant
ing a subsidy of $4,000 a year for
three years to the Egyptian growers.
Perhaps SIS, 100000 has already
been spent to stimulate the growing
of the plant in the old world with lit
tle to show for such expenditure.
The manufacturers on the other side
of the Atlantic have long been desir-
Gus of getting along without buying
the staple at lower price so that
the supplying of cloth for the market
will enable them to sell in China
and Japan and other eastern coun-
tries where the wage scale is the low
est among civilized people. One of
the reasons for the building of the
Assouan dam in Egypt was that it
would bring about a development in
cotton growing unexampled in his
tory. This irrigation of the Sahara
has brought the opportunity, but the
laziness of the natives has failed to
improve it. Last years cotton crop
was the smallest in years, and one
reason was the Incidence of those
who were expected to work it out.
The growing of cotton abroad was
done in belt which, in latitude and
longitude, correspond closely to the
area of cultivation of the plant in
the Southern states. More than this,
cotton growers, white as well as
black, of our country were hired to
teach the natives OF Africa and Asia
now to plant, care for, pick and gin
The staple. Experts came to us from
Germany and England to familiarize
themselves with American methods.
And to make it sure in some cases
our negro laborers were taken over
to Africa and Asia by the hundreds
to teach the natives the American
way of growing the plant. But
these came to nought. Our blacks
readily took up with native Incidence,
and were no longer the Industrious
creatures they were while on the
southern plantations working under
direction of the white man. Life is so
easy the air so enervating, the succu-
lent fruit and vegetable so handy and
so cheap that the toiler cares only to
exist and do as little work as posi-
Bile. Laziness is king in those semi
tropical belts, and the stimulation of
ambition a task beset with almost
insurmountable difficulties.
Nevertheless the resolute men who
are trying to make the old world pro-
duce the raw material as well as the
finished product in quantities to re-
lieve them from buying from our
growers believe they will eventually
succeed.

What Is Before MIR. Roddenbery.

From the Albany Herald.
Under the circumstances The Her.
aids feeling is one of sympathy for
Mr. Roddenbery. He goes to Wash
ington to fill the shoes of a man
whose prestige and peculiar fitness
for the public duties he discharged
will prove embarrassing to his sue
cessor. This is said in no narrow
spirit, for we do not hesitate to say
that any other man in the district
would be no less embarrassed and
handicapped were he in Mr.. Rodden-
bery's position. Judge Griggs' pop
ularity in Washington was something
to marvel at. In the councils of his
own party and in the respect and es-
TEEN of his colleagues of contrary
political faith he occupied a position
unique His influence was the re-
suit of a rare blending of ability and
personal magnetism-so rare that
only those who have had occasion to
watch the progress of public bust
ness entrusted to his care in the ma
tional capital were ever able to ap-
preciate it fully.
Mr.. Roddenbery will realize all
this before many days, if, indeed, he
does not already understand. But
while the position which his imme-
diate predecessor occupied must be
somewhat of an embarrassment it
will be at the same time a spur and
an inspiration. The whole people of
the district-those who voted for the
successful candidate, those who voted
against him and those whose lack of
interest may have been responsible
for their failure to vote at all-will
accord him full credit for whatever
may be the measure of his success.
