One of the most important and press
ing duties of the Democratic organiza
lion in Florida is the selection of a mar
TO fill the important part of Chairman
of the State Executive Committee, !;
place made vacant by the elevation o.
Chairman w. II. Price to the CirCui
iudgeShip. Some months ago the News
suggested the name of Hon. F. J. Fearn
side, member of the committee from
Putnam county, for this place. The
suggestion then met with quite general
approval, both from the press and mem
bers of the committee. Mr.. FearnSidC
has served on the State committee four.
teen years, longer perhaps than any
other member, and is one of the best
posted men in the State politically.
From all parts of the State have come TO
him offers of support, and the News be-
lieyes that when the committee meets,
as il must very soon, Mr.. FearnSide will
have little opposition. There are few
men in the State better acquainted with
our men of affairs and in the opinion of
many of them Mfr. Fearnside has all the
qualifications for an ideal chairman.

Farmers in Louisiana are finding tina
the boil weevil has been a blessing in
disguise. Where they once raised cot
ton and placed their whole dependence
upon that staple, thus inviting disaster,
they are now giving their attention tC
corn and other crops and are reaping
bigger profits than they ever did with
cotton, even under the most favorable
conditions. The time will probably
come when the department of agricul
lure will have scientific men going
over the country TO warn farmers who
are giving too much attention to one
crop, and advise them as to the best
crop TO alternate with ii. When the
department is wise enough to see diSas'
fer approaching and take steps to avert
it, ii will be doing more valuable ser.
