OF the great William Mckinley. the
Martyr President of the United States

tomb is on high hill overlooking
the city on one side and the beautiful
farm lands on the other. A soldier at
the door invited us in and I stood

his sacred dust sleeps besides that of
his lovely wife and children and felt
that as we'll as every one in South

all night ride, reached our nations
capital for early breakfast. After a
pleasant day spent in this fine city. at

Gen. Seminole Willie Jones was re-
elected chairman of the State EXecu-
tive Committee Tuesday There was
some opposition, but he had a major
ity Of the committee at his back and
Cole L. Blease lead the fight in his
behalf. We cannot say We are sur
prised at the outcome. but we had
INDUCED hope that the State Dem
ocracy would rid itself of the Semi
mole incubus. We are pleased to note
that Mr. l.. 1. Parrott, Sumter's rep
resentah,e on the committee, repu-
dated the Jones regime and nominat-
ed C>L ID. J. Griffith for the position
that Gen. Jones clings to with as per-
sistent a grip as ne does to the thou

OF his name by the Seminole promo.
ters. Sumter county, at least, has
repudiated Seminolism. and with this
we must be content for two years.
Mr. Lewis w. Parker advises the
cotton mill men to make common
cause With the farmers to maintain
the price OF cotton at its legitimate
level. This is good advice and If the
mills had adopted this policy years
ago. instead OF aiding and abetting
the cotton exchange gamblers of New
York and Liverpool. the South-cot-
ton farmers. cotton mills and all 9TH
better off. The coalition of cotton
mills and cotton spectators to manip-
ulate the price of cotton has been
ruinous to those who depended upon
actual cotton for a living. and was un-
natural as damaging. The man who
grows cottCh and they who spin and
weaves II into cloth are engaged in
an honest and legitimate busines and
are dependent upon a marketable COM
modify for n livelihood, but the cot
ton exchange spectators are gamb-
iers pure and simple and every dollar
that they ge! Is an unrighteous tribute
levied upon the toll of honest pro-
ducers. II the mills and the farmers,
OF SOM business-like organization Of
farmers. can get together then specu-
lators can he cut out entirely; the
mills can contract at a fixed price for
all the cotton they need from year to
year and only the surplus cotton. II
any. will be thrown upon the open
market. The size of the surplus will
determine the price the mills will be
willing to pay for the next years crop.
and IL will behoove the farmers to
keep the surplus within bounds.
These would be ideal conditions and
doubtless impossible of entire realiza-
tion. but they can be approximated
II farmers and mill men will but work
together with an honest purpose to do
what is mutually beneficially on a
live and let live policy.

In regard to the Farmers Institutes S
proposal by Prof Burrows: The
Farmers Union will do it's share to
have one, but previous experiences at
Sumter and Mayesville with the small
number of farmers that attended
makes one shy of trying to have an
Institute at either place. Does some
Country neighborhood want the In
stitute this summer? The President
of the Union will engage with Prof.
Burrow for an institute but the time
and place will require more thought.

Some Random Thoughts.

All of our space today is taken up
what Prof. Massey says on the sub
ject Is we'll worth reading. Notice
how he advises sticking to one or
two legumes, rather than trying
everything that some enthusiast rec
ommends.. This reminds me of what
the late Col. Newman said some years
ago at an institute in the Court
House: That with COW peas, oats
and sorghum, the South could beat
the world on forage.

Winds Make Forest Fires.

Forest fires have been keeping the Forest Service busy. One large fire started in the thick ce- dar and pinon country north of Cosnino and completely killed of trees where it ran. Wm. Beeson lost about 100 cords of wood that was cut and stacked on the ground. The fire was so fierce that it was impossible to do much with it until it ran out into the open.
 A fire started at the railroad near Bell Springs and ran over several sections during the heavy winds last week. The damage done was mainly to seedlings.

WANT SCENIC ROAD RIGHT
Corporation Would Build Line Along Rim of Grand Canyon from
 Hotel to Grand View.

A Washington dispatch says: The Grand Canyon Scenic Rail- way, backed by retired brewer of Cleveland named Oppman, had a hearing before the Public Lands Committee of the House today on its application for permit to build a gasoline motor line about sixteen miles along the brink of the Grand Canyon from Fl Tovar Hotel at the head of Bright Angel trail to Grand View Point; also to construct an inclined tunnel from the top of the bank to Granite Lodge, about 5000 feet below the rim of the canyon, and by means of a traction railway to reach the Indian Gardens 1000 feet above the bed of the Colorado River,
 Plans are said to call for the expenditure of about million dol lars. The committee is in doubt whether it would be better to al tow private corporation to make these improvements, or whether they ought to be made by the gov  ernment, which has been planning to build roadway along the can yon rim. The committee has taken the proposition under advisement.

CITIZEN DIR. WILEY.
Wants to Be Heard on the Bread
Question Before Commissioners.

DIR. Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the bu-
reau Of chemistry, has written to the
Commissioners that he will be pleased to
attend the public board meeting Wednes-
day, February 2, at 10 am, to say his
say in regard to the proposed bread law.
DR.. Wiley's presence before the new
board of Commissioners will not partake
OF his official capacity as government
chemist or pure food advocate, although
his knowledge on this latter subject will
undoubtedly be called into play. He has
expressed the desire to attend the meet
ing as a plain citizen of Washington.
In the first letter he wrote to the Com
missioners he limited that he would have
something to say about the amount of
moisture that should be in loaf OF bread.
There has been one hearing on the pro-
posed bread law. The old board of Com
missioners heard several antagonists to
the proposition to regulate the weight OF
q loaf of bread, and to regulate also the
amount Of moisture that a loaf should
contain. The law was drafted by Col.
Haskell, sealer of weights and measures.
Shortly after that hearing several house
keepers wrote to the Commissioners, and
asked that the women of Washington be
allowed to appear before them and say
something about bread. This meeting Will
give them the opportunity.
