TERRELL COUNTY FAIR
PROVED GREAT SUCCESS
But Sumter County Can Elk.
Gel it Next Year.
Dawson News.)


The Terrell County Fair, under tn
management OF the Library AssocL-
ton. went 50 far beyond anything
dreamed Of or hoped for by the ladies
who inaugurated the movement that
they lave not yet recovered from their
surprise.
At the beginning the committees
were inst little afraid that with our
large handsome court house, 50 cour-
teously p12ced at their disposal By the
county officials. as the place for the
fair bare walls might be staring them
in TIE face on opening day, AMI every
one had secretly determined 10 bring
down every article they could find at
home 70 fill up space and give a fair
/ appearance 10 tie building But after
the last day for entries the: problem
/ that confronted them was what TO do
with the avalanche OF things that
poured in from every part OF the coun-
/ ". The magnitude OF the response 20
the efforts Of the few who had been
quietly working for some months for
the enterprise was simply over
wleIming in some of the departments
and it IS a matter Of the greatest re-
gret that several valuable and inter-
esting collections had to be turned
away for lack of room.
The weather throughout was ideal
there being Just enough crispness IN
in the air to put every one at his best
and it was a good-natured, happy lot
of people WHO thronged the streets
AMI crowded the court house during
the three days Of the fair. Terrell
/ county folks have for these years been
SO busy making money they have
hardly taken time to ger acquainted
with their neighbors, and this coming
together for a season of Misunderstanding
and good cheer and 10 see what had
been gathered together Of the coun-
! tvs pro5lcts was an eye-opener. and
the county pride of every citizen has
I been greatly increased.

THE SOUTH REALLY PROGRESS
SIVE.

You will get an entirely different
idea Of the South from reading Judson
C. Welliyers inspiring survey Of the
situation here in his article o n~"The
lettering Political Machines" in TIE
November Hampton's. He tells the
people of the North things about the
South that will come to them as com
plete news Far from being a lag,
gard, the South has beena leader in
reform" says Welliver. ut has given
more attention to home and less TO
national affairs than the North and
West. Its part in national affairs has
so long been negligible that it has in
evitably taken less interest in them.
Look over the splendid states OF
the South, rict, prosperous, growing
and clamoring for labor to assure more
rapid development; consider how in
little more than generation these
have developed from chaos and pow
cray. and you must concede that the
South las done marvelously well
'1n social perceptions the South has
fallen no whit behind the North. Ev-
cry state that was in the Southern
ConfedeItacy has established long
since tie system of primary elections
for all Offices including in most cases
United States senators.
The South has wrought out it's race
problem to solution which the whole
nation now accepts, so far as concerns
politics. Constitutional or not, the ex-
clusion of the uneducated black from
political rights is fixed fact, acqui-
esce1 in by the country To have ac-
complisted that much and secured the
Norths acceptance of 1t is a tremen-
dous thing If the North has reached
an equally conclusive determination of
many comparable problem | do not
know it.

TAFT PLANS TO WIPE
PATRONAGE OUT
Wants Many Offices Under
Civil Service.

Washington, d. S.,November s.
President Taft will make a change
this winter in the business manage
ment Of the executive end of the ma
tons affairs which promises TO be
radical and at the same time
strengthen his chances of re-nomina-
ton and reelection in 1912
At the coming session of congress
the president viii recommend Post
master1General Hitchcock's pet plan,
the placing of second and third class
postmasters nnder civil service. TIE
recommendation will go forward in one
Of the several messages Mr.. Taft will
send to congress, after which he will
use all influence at his command 10
get the measure passed.
Great Political Coup.
This will be but the forerunner of a
greater change in the management Of
the executive departments OF the gov
eminent and what friends OF TIE presi-
dent believe will be a political coup.
If President Taft is successful N
having congress place the 10000 or
more second and third class postmas-
tiers under civil service he viii at
once take steps to have all collec-
tors Of customs and internal revenue
placed on the permanent rolls of the
government
This would mean the taking away OF
all patronage senators and represen-
tatiyes now possess Mr. Taft realizes
that it is almost revolutionary, and
that before the members of congress
let go any Of it they will put up a
hard fight
Thinks He Can Force it Through.
Mr.. Taft wants to accomplish this
change, an economic change, as he
calls it, before the time for selecting
delegates to the next national republi-
can convention comes. The president
figures that he has the members of the
house and senate on the run so far
as getting legislation through this ses-
sion is concerned and he will take adj
vantage of his opportunity.
1t is figured that with a presidential
election but two years off and the peo-
pei of the country talking and de-
manding conservation of everything,
even in federal executive expenditures
the house will certainly pass meas
ure such as he will recommend, even IL
it be a democratic house.
Friends of the president point out
that if he does get this plan through
his denomination and reelection are
almost assured.
