ing passed, and these petitions are
being readily signed by voters and
taxpayers gladly, and without per-
suasion, which shows that the mass
es, for this one time at least, are
conscious of the immense danger to
themselves by the adoption of such
a nefarious scheme to make servants
for the capitalistic family.
There are few, however, "who
have eyes and won't see' who scott
at the idea of such petitions doing
any good, and affirm that Con
gressmen won't pay any attention to
such petitious". If so, we would in
quire in Shakespearean language:
con what meat doth our Caesars
feed that they have grown so great"
that they can't afford to pay heed
to the peoples voice? Do they con-
slider themselves SO strongly en-
trenched they can treat their con-
stituents with indifference or seem
puffed up with the authority vested
in them as servants of the people;
grown so vain they imagine them
selves masters of the people? If so,
God knows it was a fearful error to
trust SuCn SuOTI-SlSuC Ou uIuCOu-
poops with any official position, and
a law of recall should be speedily
enacted.
In comparison with the "Ship Sub
sidy" bill in defrauding the people,
the destruction of governmental
monies compares with such about as
a mountain would in size compare
with mole-hill. If no protests are
made it will be used as an argument
in favor of the passage of the bill:
'The people are in favor of it,, and
the weak-backs and weak-heads in
our Congress may be tempted to vote
as the money-changers wish. Let
the cry go out from among the peo-
pie: Don't, don't, don't pass such
an Infamous bill! Remember the
crime of 1879, and cry loud and
long. Sincerely yours,

GOOD FARM SUGGESTIONS.

..
Y Be very careful about giving the
brood mares heavy loads at, this sea
son, but they must have enough gen
tie exercise to keep them in good
form
Now doth the little louise get in his
work on the chickens. Keep, going
the wlitewash brush, the powder can
and the kerosene sprayer.
The farm well often sends up from
its cool depths the rankest kind of ty-
phoid germs. See that no foul water
drains into it from the surface or
seeps through from outhouses.
Spread large sheet under the plum
tree and Jar Mr. Curculio off his perch.
He turns out over one brood a year
and any fruit that shows his sting
should be burned.
A good time to transfer the bees
from old-fashioned wooden hives into
new ones is when the blossoms are
plentiful.
The poultry water vessels should be
given more attention than ever.
Remember! Do not feed newly
Matched chicks too soon. They will die.
from Indigestion if you do.
Do you know young chicks often die
from regular chiIls? Well. they do.
Keep them dry and warm on damp,
chilly days.
Now the calves are coming along,
and to start them right means good
animal, while neglect means a poor
one. Blood counts, of course. but so
does the feed trough.
1t is a shame to keep a nervous,
high-blooded bull shut up in a dark
stall. Give him small but secure
lot for exercise.

Grewn Fruit Most Desirable.


I. The forcing of tomatoes under glass
has assumed considerable proportions
in: the middle and northern states,
aand the demand for the green
house grown crop is steadily in
,creasing. This is due to the fact that
tomatoes when grown under glass are
superior TO those. that are grown in
the. extreme southern states and
which must necessarily be picked
partially green and shipped long dis
tances before teaching our markets

Care of CuItivator Steels.

Take fine brick dust, mix with a lit.
tie water, and scrub the rust spots,
using a stiff brush. After the bad
spots are well moistened, mix one-half
pint of sulphuric acid in one quart
OF water; mix well, then apply with
brush. Moisten the rust spots. When
dry, polish with brick dust or fine
sand. One or at most two applica-
lions will remove most; if not all, the
rust. All steel implements and small
hand tools should be treated in the
same way. 1t is a pleasure to work
with a clean, polished implement.
More and much better quality of
work can be done with a clean tool.

CUL TIvATING THE CORN CROP
Should Receive Attention as Soon as
1t Gets Just Above the
f,rnt,t,<f

Do not wait for the corn to get
much above the ground before begin
ming cultivation. A harrow put on
just before the plant appears above
the surface or Immediately afterward
kills millions Of weeds and prepares
the soil for the tender plant when it
comes through
Then the weeders and cultisators
should be kept going from this time
until the corn is too big to be cult
waited with safety. If the season is
dry more cultivation is necessary, be-
cause it has been demonstrated that
the average rainfall is not sufficient
to grow a full crop Of corn without
keeping the moisture under the sur
face, and the Importance of thorough
cultivation in dry seasons is therefore
apparent.
The first cultivation may be deep.
but after CIVILIZATIONS should be shall
low. The old-fashioned plow ripping
along between rows four or five inches
deep, tearing and cutting off the roots.
has destroyed millions Of bushels of
corn in times gone by Most farmers
know better now, but there may be
yet some unenlightened man, and to
him this warning applies.
When the corn plant is three or
four feet high the fibrous roots ex-
tend from one row to another and
form a mat from three to five inches
under the surface. When six to eight
feet high these roots have formed a
complete connection between the
rows, and it can easily be understood
that cultivator set five or six inches
deep will tear this mat apart and thus
greatly injure the growing plant.

L.ona Rows Save Labor.

An exchange well illustrates the i'm.
portance of long rows by telling of a
western farmer who had plowed land
100 rods wide and half mile long
He made three fields, each 33 rods
wide and 160 rods long. When plant
ed in corn he found that his man
could cultivate it the long way of the
row in three days, while, if going the
other way, there was four days work
Just one day extra was spent in turn

Harrison Has Safe Lead in Dis
trict.-Tally and Lewis Run
Neck and Neck.
A light Vote POLLED
in ALL The COUNTIES
Available Figures Indicate a Very
Close Race Between Tally and
Lewis for Second Place.

Incomplete returns from all the
counties in the Sixth Congressional
District indicate that Hon. B. Pat
Harrison, of Gulfport, made an almost
runaway race in yesterdays primary
election, leading the ticket by safe
plurality, with Hon. Frank H. Lewis,
of Scranton, and Hon. John R. Tally,
of Hattiesburg, close contenders for
second place.
While all the largest voting pre-
cincts from each of the counties have
been heard from, there are still quite
number of boxes in the interior
from which the returns have not yet
been received, and it is possible that
when these are heard from the result,
as concerns Messrs. Tally and Lewis
may be changed; and, considering
the slight difference in their vote,
little change here and there might
make a very material difference.
Figures received at the campaign
headquarters of the respective can
didates are conflicting, but all concede
that Harrison has a safe lead for the
second primary, while an official
count may be required to determine
who will be his running mate In the
final home stretch.
Returns indicate that the voting in
all the counties was very light, not
more than sixty-five per cent of the
entire qualified vote being polled in
the district. In Forrest county, the
vote was scarcely more than half of
what had been expected, and like
condition prevailed in several other
counties of the district.
Through the courtesy of newspa-
pers at the different county seats in
the District, The News has been en-
abled to secure what we believe to be
, approximately correct returns from
J ten counties, with few boxes to
be heard from in each. In nearly
every instance, however, the pre-
cincts which have not been heard
from polled a very light vote, being
| located in the interior, and it is a
matter of speculation as to what eff
/ feet they will have upon the final re-
suit.
Following is the vote by counties,
as received by The News.

delegates carry credentials that will
call official attention of the Chinese
government to the proposed Panama
Pacific International Exposition to be
held in San Francisco in 1915, and
they hope to do a great deal of mis-
sionary work among possible oriental
exhibitors at the big fair. The party
will visit the Chinese Exposition at
Shanghai next month, several mem
bers of the party having been appoint
ed official American delegates.
The Chambers of Commerce of San
Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, San
Diego, Portland, Seattle, Spokane and
Takoma are represented by members.
After the trip through China, some of
the members of the party will visit

NEW RAILROAD
IS AUTHORIZED
Governor Issues Proclamation
Authorizing Organization Of
Bonhomie Southwestern.

News has been received in Hatties
burg that Governor Noel has issued
proclamation authorizing the organi-
zation of the Bonhomme Southwestern
Railroad company, which is being
promoted by Messrs. w. S. F. Tatum,
w. o. Tatum and S. E. Travis, of Hat
tiesburg
This railroad, which will run from
Columbia, a distance of about thirty
miles, will give Columbia a direct
eastern outlet, something that town
has needed for several years, but has
been unable to get. The road will
open a virgin territory and will form
connection at Columbia with the
Great Northern.
The Tatums have large timber in
ties, and it was for the purpose of
developing these that what is now
known as the Tatum line was con-
structed but the extension of the
road should develop good freight
and passenger business in addition to
the timber traffic. The converting OF
the Tatum line into a regular traffic
road has been under consideration for
some time, and it was generally un
derstood that it would be built sooner
or later.
When the Fernwood and Gulf is
built to Columbia, which will proba
bly, be some time within the next
twelve months, Columbia will ther
have an east and west line, and viii
open up considerable traffic which
will be diverted through Hattiesburg
The Bonhomme Southwestern will
touch several important points be
tween Hattiesburg and Columbia, ant
will traverse very fertile territory

Official Count Necessary to
Name the Second Candidate
give Mr.. TALLY
A SLIGHT LEAD

Totals of all figures received at
Tally campaign headquarters in Hat
tiesburg give Harrison a lead of 776
votes over Tally, with Lewis only 43
votes behind Tally. These figures are
taken from returns received from va
rious voting precincts in the district,
without regard to counties.
At the time of going to press Off
cial returns from counties were being
received, which did not make any ma
terial change in the result, as indi-
Gated by the early reports.
Numerous precincts in many of the
hill counties had not reported; some
of these are conceded to each of the
cadidates, but it is the opinion Of
Mr.. Tally's campaign managers that
he will receive larger number o.
votes at these places than either Har
rison or Lewis.
While it is conceded that the rae,
between Tally and Lewis is yer.
close, Mr.. Tally's campaign manager
are confident that he will be in th
run-off with Mr.. Harrison. This, how
ever, is purely speculative, and al
reports indicate that an official coun
of the vote will be necessary to dc
termine the result.

Want DAMAGES
FOR LEAKY ROOF
Capitol Commission Wants to Sue
Somebody, But Doesn't Know Ex-
actIy Who to Sue.
Special to The Net0S.

Special to The NetoS.
Jackson, Miss, Aug. 23.-The capi-
tol commission will endanvor to re-
cover for damages to the governors
mansion caused by the leaking roof,
and the department of justice will be
called upon to fix the responsibility.
whether Contractor j. F. Barnes or
Architect Hull was at fault.
This action was decided upon at a
meeting of the capitol commission at
which Contractor Ray Wright was
paid for putting the new roof on the
mansion, and at which the question
of responsibility was discussed at
some length. This question was re.
ferred to the department of justice
some time ago, but since the work
has been completed on the mansion,
it will come up again.
Mr.. Wright is the CD only
one of the contractors who
has been paid in full for
his work. He completed his con
tract Saturday, and the work was for.
mally accepted by the commission
with the contractors guarantee. The
roof that caused all the trouble was
put on by Philadelphia concern
though the contract was awarded to
Captain Barnes. The contractor
claims the work was done according
to specifications furnished by the ar
chitect, which relieves him of respon
sibility, and some members of the
commission take the same view oi
the matter.
The commission has held back part
of the contract money, but not suffi
cient to recompense the state for loss
and damage through the leaking roof
Several rooms that had been newly
decorated over again following the
heavy rains of June, entailing consid
cradle loss, while a new roof was
necessary for part of the building
notwithstanding the other roof was
guaranteed for period of twenty
years, and began to leak before il
had been on two years.
The repairs to the mansion have
been completed and the building turn
ed over to the commission, but is /.
probable either the contractor or ar
Ichitect, or both, will have to entel
suit to recover their money, unles,
the commission enters suit for dam
ages against one or both Of them
