The Real Cause.

The election is over aud we are all
taking a breathing spell. The strife has
been a very bitter one and no man has
a just excuse to say there was no cause
for il. Outwardly and no doubt over
shadowing all other questions was the
contention between uncompromising
prohibitionists on one side and the
whisky interests on the other. Each, Of
course, had its friends, and the battle
waged warm But underlying all this
and probably Of more importance is the
fact that Tennessee as well as other sec
tons Of the South is stepped in crime
and the conditions are growing worse.
Murderers cut.throats and thieves stalk
abroad on the public thoroughfares
among defenseless citizens. There is no
protection. The law is outraged, the
lawyer has sold his honor aud the court
is contaminated with the world.
No one Governor nor no dozen Gov
ernors are altogether res ponsible for
these things, but with the increase Of
crime and incompetency OF the courts
law abiding citizens became uneasy and
restless. Matters grew worse until the
rupture caused by the present admins
tion The battery turned upon the ma
chine, but the machine, though disrep-
utable enough, was white as snow COM
pared 10 the reign OF lawlessness. Streets
run with blood in Nashville, Memphis
and other cities and localities, aud no
avcnging hand to smite the guilty.
Tennessee had grown SO red with
crimson blood that the Governors par
don mill inhamed the people to the very
highest pitch and to the end that polti-
cal ties we're forgotten.
The cry was for relief and many
sought refuge in the Republican camp.
Whether they were justified Or not in
this remains to be proven, but the cause
for revolt can not be easily disposed Of.
This paper held to its own party nom
inee, but had no fight to make on the
man who believed that he was being
deceived.
1t is the fight against corruption and
lawlessness in the West that kindledin
surgency; it is this fight that is stirring
the people all over the United States; it
is the cause Of the present political up
heaval aud the end is not yet, and will
not be until the nation and States are
purged.
II is coming and the old political fos-
sill and discredited statesman might as
well move aside.

Farms. large and Small.

An Alabama farmer, who owns a
plantation Of several thousand acres, is
dividing his land into small farms and
is selling them to Northern farmers,
who are seeking homes in the South.
It is sensible plan. The little farm
well tiled is great deal better than
the big farm lying idle or poorly eul-
tivated.
The owner Of the large farm most
generally rents out the greater portion
Of his land to tenants. The man who is
cultivating rented land is not going to
concern himself as to the welfare Of the
land He considers that he is doing
pretty well il be devotes reasonable at
tention to the crop. 1t is not every ten
ant who will make that much Of con-
cesslon to his landlord,
The man who owns a small farm, if
he be an industrious man, is likely to
make more out Of it than the planta-
ton owner makes from his vast extent
OF acres 1t is the small farm cultivated
with judgment and energy that is the
hope Of the country.
The census returns from Iowa, recent
ly published, show that there was in the
past decade material decrease in the
number of farms. Iowa is a great ag-
rcultural State, but the decline is not a
good sign. The value of land, it APP
pears, has more than doubled in Iowa
in the last ten years, but there are not
as many farms as there used to be. This
is an indication that the farms are larger
than they formerly were; that the rural
population is diminishing; that the
smaller farms are being absorbed by
the larger ones--a situation which does
not look good for future rural prosperi-
ty. 1t would be much better showing
if the big farms were being divided and
the number Of farms was in conse-
quence increasing
The Alabama plantation owner who
is dividing his acres and selling them to
new corners is doing fine thing for
himself and a good service for his com
munity. Instead of one big plantation
indifferently cultivated there will be
dozens of small farms producing and
profiting from the personal attention Of
their owners. In that particular locali
ty there will be more crops and better
crops, because there will be more farm
ers and better farmers to raise them
hence more prosperity for everybody

The New York Herald in a recent is
sue makes a forecast of the prob
able complexion Of the United States
Senate after March 3, 1911, which gives
the control of that body to the combined
vote OF the Democrats and insurgent
Republicans. The Senate consists OF
ninety-two members, but there are three
vacancies caused by the deaths OF Nc
Emery, Of Louisiana, Daniel, OF Vir-
ginia, and Dolliver, of Iowa. Assum-
ing that these vacancies will be filled by
men of the same political sentiments,
the Herald bases its prognostications of
the results Of the coming elections upon
the Senate political division of fifty-nine
Republicans and thirty-three Democrats.
There is Republican majority OF TWEEN
ty-six in the Senate, including the in
surgents, who number at least eleven,
thus making the margin of conservative
Republican majority very small. The
Herald says:
On March 8, 1911, the terms OF thirty
Senators will expire. OF the six Demo-
Gratis, Senator James B. Frazier, OF Ten
nessee, appears to be the only one in
danger The other Democratic seats
then to be vacant are those OF Texas,
Virginia, Mississippi, Maryland and
Florida. But twenty-four Republicans
60 out, and of these the Democrats have
already gained one, in Maine, where
Democrat will succeed Senator Eugene
Hale Senator Aldrich, of Rhode Island
has decided to retire at the end of the
present term, on March 8, 1911. In
consequence there is great disturbance
in Rhode Island over his successor.
There are three candidates-Col. Henry
f. Lippett, Robert Ives CANNED and
Col. Samuel p. Holt The Republicans
can see no great detection threatening
the Legislature, but the Democrats as
sert that they will sweep everything in
Rhode Island What is the forecast?
OF the three insurgent Senators Bey-
eridge. Clapp and LaFollette-Mr Bev-
eridge' election is in doubt, while Mr. |
Clapp and Mr.. LaFollette will be re-
returned. There will also be Repub- |
ican successor to Senator Deliver. Of
The conservative Senators, the seats Of
Messrs. Bulkeley, Depew, Dick, Dupont
md Kean are in doubt. Messrs. Bur
-ows, McCumber and Piles will be sue
.eeded by insurgents. Messrs. Hale
Ind Warner, beyond question, will be
by Democrats. This is a net
oss TO the conservative Republicans OF
i've, with the possibility OF six more be-
ng succeeded either by insurgents or
Democrats. The forecast is that the
Democrats and insurgents will easily
'ontrol the United States Senate after
March 8, 1911. ]

say that the complexion Of Congress
has been changed, but veritable land
slide has gone to the Democratic party.
New York led the revolt Perhaps il
was not so much a reactionary spirit in
New York as il was rebuke to Roose-
welt, but in many sectionsof the United
States the insurgency was paramount.
As we have stated before Roosevelt does
not represent the spirit Of insurgency,
and for that matter a large number Of
Democrats are not IN sympathy with
them. But the masses are with them,
and any party which holds out against
this movement will find itself deserted
in the course of very short time The
people Of this country are demanding
purer men and politics and everything
before the movement will be swept
aside. There is no room for Taft-Ald-
