Newell and Garfield, at the outset.
favored the certificate plan, because
they had no money, and when the
plan was knocked out, denied the
shortage Of funds. The official rec
ordS told the story
As to his cancellation OF many
Withdrawals made by Secretary Gar
ned month before his retirement.
Secretary Ballinger testified that Gar
field had withdrawn lands under the
Reclamation act which lands could
not be irrigated or used for irrigation
purposes inside of l ) or 20 years.
i could not sec any power in the
Secretary Of the Interior to withdraw
lands arbitrarily, even under the rec
Iamation ACT and hold them for an
Indefinite period, and | do not now
think that the power exists under the
law" he said. Therefore the Secre-
tary cancelled these Withdrawals.
Newell and Davis had testified that
Secretary Ballinger ordered them to
recommend tho cancellation of many
such Withdrawals, but refused to re-
duco his orders to writing. This
statement, Secretary Ballinger said,
was deliberate misrepresentation of
the facts.

MANY WILL ATTEND.

Sardis, Miss, Feb. The APP
preaching Laymen's Missionary Com
vention, in the city of Memphis, on
February 9TH, 9Th and 9th, is arous-
ing considerable interest, which was
accelerated yesterday by an address
by Mr.. Alfred M. Mason, a prominent
Iayman of Memphis, and the Sunday
school superintendent of the Second
Presbyterian church. The address was
heard by large number assembled in the
Methodist church and was earnest, force
full and attractive, and the impression was
deep, and it is to be hoped lasting in its
effects. Mr.. Mason was one of a hum
dred laymen, from the different churches,
to 60 in person to the foreign mission
fields, and see for themselves the true
condition Of missions and to study on the
ground and at first hand all the sur
roundings; he went to Mexico, and sur.

People are beginning to pick up brush
and pile logs ard clear out fence corners
and bitches preparatory to blowing. If
there is anything in present indications
there will be more corn and oats raised
through this section than for long time.
Right here is one of the greatest works of
the farmers union. If its members will
agree to raise the feed stuff at home
the cotton crop will be adjusted. After
plenty has been raised at home to run the
farm, there won't be very much use to
fuss about decreasing the acreage of cotton.
The fact is that the high cost of living
doesn't bother the man who has his living
at home. The warehouse is a great
thing, but unless we raise everything we
can to eat at home, the warehouse can't
do US much good. We are not independent
enough to hold our cotton. 1t must go
to pay for meat and bread. We can put
off buying a new suit and if necessary
our wives can wear their last winters
hat a few times in order to hold our
cotton, but if there's nothing in the
smokehouse and pantry, the cotton must
CO. 1t is hoped that the present legis-
ature will repeal the agricultural lien
law. Of course it will work a hard
ship on some, perhaps great many, for a
year or two. Bankers can't put out their
money and merchants their goods without
security; and as the only thing many
people have to secure their merchant with
is crop which they expect to raise, just
that many people will be compelled to eco
nomize whether they desire to or not if
this permiscious law is repealed. 1t will
to a great extent revolutionize business
and put the country on cash basis. 1t
will stop men from pawning the sweat
of their brows and children for things
they should raise at home. There may
not be so much glitter of inery in the
spring. Costly hats and lawns will be
unknown to many on Easter, but they
will be replaced in the fall by comfortable
clothing for winter. There will be less
disappointment, fewer heart4aches, and
smaller doctors bills.

ALEXANDER SHOWS A GOOD GAIN.
Spurt of Jackson Man Was Feature of the
Session Of the Caucus Last
Night

A decided gain Of strength by Alex
ander was the principal feature Of the
balloting in the senatorial contest last
night.
A jump of five votes over the maxi
mum heretofore shown was made by
Alexander on the first ballot of the
night. His total number of votes was
s6, ard he lost but one of these on the
second round.
Practically all of the new strength
shown by Alexander and Percy was
drawn from Messrs. Byrd and Kyle,
who were cut down to 10 votes each on
the last ballot.
The rumored entral of Col. H. NJ
Street, chairman of the carcus, as an
active candidate, which had beer
freely talked around the state house
during the afternoon, failed to ma
terialize. Col Street stated during the
afternoon that he was in the hands of his
friends, the Interpretation of this remark
being that he is passive candidate and
willing to become active if the proper
opportunity is presented, but it evidently
failed to present itself last night for he
received but four votes on the first ballot,
and was cut down to three on the second.
1t is very evident from a study of
last nights ballots that an effort is
under way in the conservative camp
to commence the process of elimina-
ton, and today the talk is general that
it will be either Alexander or Percy who
is selected to make the final dash for the
senatorial goal against Vardaman. Messrs.
Kyle and Byrd, however, have shown no
inclination to retire and their supporters
declare they have no intention of quitting
the field.
With a total of III votes cast the
best that Vardaman could do was 60
votes on the first ballot and 6S on the
second. 1t is claimed that some of his
supporters are out of the city, being de-
taired at home by sickness or personal
business. This is doubtless true, for the
opposition has all along conceded him a
normal strength of IS votes. So tar as
can be ascertained, there have been but
two assertions from his column during the
present week.
The session of the carcus was as
tame and quiet as convention of deaf
mutes. The only enthusiasm outwardly
shown was when Alexander showed up
with sc votes on the first ballot Some
lusty cheers from the floor and galleries
gave evidence of the fact that the Jack
son candidate has a goodly number OF
strong-lunged supporters.
The result of the two ballots were as
follows:

SAW HIS CHANCE AND TOOK IT.

New Augusta, Miss, Feb a.-The
average country darkey is not credited
with quick wits. Charlie Williams, a
county convict, however, showed on Mon
day that he is an exception to the rule.
Williams was at work with other con-
victs near here. Steve Combs was the
lguard. In order to rest Combs, gun in
hand mounted stump. The stump was
too rotten to bear his weight and crashed
under him. In falling the gun ranmed
itself in the ground in such manner as
to pack the muzzle with dirt. Williams
saw the accident and condition in which
it put the guards gun. He broke and ran.
Before Combs could recover and clean
the weapon the fugitive was out of range
and made good his escape.
