RRAZlL'S PRESIDENTIAL ELEC-
TION.

A remarkable fact about the recent
Brazilian presidential election, from
out point of view, is the slight total of
the vote cast. There are twenty states
and federal district in Brazil with
an aggregate population of twenty NIL
lions, and yet the number of electors
who went to the polls on the quadren-
NAL voting day, the first of March, and
cast their ballots was 615,S05. Brazil
has manhood suffrage, barring only
beggars, illiterates, soldiers actually
serving and members of monastic or
ders, etc, under vows of obedience;
and yet less than one in every so of the
population voted-or had his vote
counted.
The difference between conditions in
the great South American republic and
our own is strikingly shown when it is
remembered that at the last presiden-
tial election in this country the aggre-
gate number of voters for presidential
electors was 14.SSS,442, while our pop
ulation at the time was abou. Sc, 600, 600
or 100000. In other words the vo-
tiers on election day. 1908, in the United

there is no doubt that the government
will resign and go to the country
again on the questions of the budget
and the reform of the house of lords.
The debate inaugurated in the
speech is likely to proceed at intervals
until the general elections come on. It
will enable the lords to stave off the
consideration of the veto resolutions
beyond the period for which ministers
are providing supplies
The younger peers do not want to
be legislated out of existence by their
own class 1t was common gossip in
the galleries that the reform scheme
when completed would enable the. in
experienced peers to stand for the
commons at their own discretion and
claim membership in the upper house
subsequently by order of merit, with
out the necessity for an election as
representative peers.
There is now a strong probability
that the general elections will be de-
ferred from May to July after supplies
have been renewed, resolutions substi-
tuted for last years budget, the land

Mrs. Clare's home is at the Fair

Mrs. Clare says:
Il have suffered for years from mus
cular rheumatism, not enough to cause
me any great pain, but I was stiffen-
ed and it was difficult for me to move
about, but seemed to get very little

assured me they could cure me, and

Hog, Corn and Cotton.
(LaurcnS Advcrtiscr.)

One hundred pounds OF hog alive
are worth ten dollars. and three hun
drcd pounds Of hog are worth half n
bale OF cotton, when cotton Is worth
twelve cents the pound. Two 300
pound hogs are therefore equal to
bale OF twelve cents the pound cot
ton. The likelihood, meanwhile. IS
considerably greater that cotton will
drop to ten cents the pound than that
hog will drop below ten cents the
pound.
Thc boys corn clubs that are being
Organized In this State are bringing
1t to pass that two pounds Of corn
may be produced for the same cost
that one pound OF corn has hereto
fore been Produced Ualving the
price Of raising corn will halvc the
price OF raising hog approximately.
by the education OF the boys in
correct methods OF farming il will bc
easy to raise six hundred pounds of
hogs, which Is to say bale OF cotton,
nj the cost Of raising a 300-pound
hog or n half bale OF cotton now,
The boys OF to-day will be men TO-
morrow. The education OF the farm

the Wishes OF the citizens Of counties

Ing to furnish Il county approprio
