Twenty years ago. continued Representative Lively, the state was excited from One end to the other over a proposed amendment to our constitution, the adoption of Whict. would haze made Texas prohibition from north to south and from east to west, but the prohibtionisis did not win. It was believed that the defeat of prohibition would end tll , issue, but in this we were mistaken for the advocates of the strict temp erance never let their cause die out. Now we have the same issue to meet again. The feeling is very strong; in some sections our prohibition friends are declaring for north and south Texas, should the vote show that the state is divided on the question. However, believe that state pride would prevent a division. of our territorial empire into two states.
 T believe the liquor question could be solved by a change in the law which directs the collectors of inter- nal revenue to issue special ret9il liquor license. Under the present law a license will be issued to any appli cant for a retail liquor dealers license, no matter if the applicant S place of business is located in prohi- bition territory. The effect Of this is to give the governments moral support to liquor dealers who refuse to obey local or state law governing the sale of liquor. If the government would reject all applications for li quor licenses where the local law forbids it, there would be fewer vio- lations of Prohibition law, and local option would be made effective be- cause no liquor dealer would want to get in the clutchus of Uncle Sam by selling liquor without license. There is a growing sentiment in fa- vor of the proposed change in the law to prohibit the issuance of a federal liquor license to liquor deal CTS living ill counties where the sale of liquor is forbidden. Retail dealers are not afraid to violate local law but they are not willing to try the issue with the government, and hence they never fail to get Uncle Sam's license

"Leaye to Print. Rule.

l Representative Heflin, of Alabama While lounglng in the Democratic cloak room, handed out a little talk on the beauties of the leave 10 print rule as a cloak for criticis5s of fellow memberH and illustratat his point with story.
 The member who reads the Reeofa every morning, and by reading l mean the proceedings of the Senate as we'll as the House. said MT. lief lin, will catch up with the fellow who now and then slips one over by the rule that governs leave to print and also discover some sharp criticism of colleague, that, if uttered on the floor would perhaps bring a reioind- CT.
 I am reminded of this by little thing 1 discovered in the Record of last Tuesday. On it's first page was a speech delivered by Representative Payne, of New York The subject of the speech was pensions, and it was delivered on the day on which the House passed the Subway b;l granting pensions to soldiers and of ficers, who served in the Civil war and the war with Mexico. This is the bill that adds $45,000 900 to the pen sion fund. It was passed under the suspension of rules after Speaker Cannon had made strong plea for it's passage. Mr. Payne made brief speech in opposition to the bill, but there was no criticism in what he said on the floor against Speaker Cannon, who, in his enthusiasm, quot ed a paragraph from President Taft's message on pensions. Mir. Payne ob tained leave to extend his remarks in the Record. This he did with in- 'terest for in that journal column and a half is taken up in support or his position in opposition to the bill; and in this leave to print he criticizes
 
 the Speaker. without mentioning his name, by stating that part of what President Taft said in his message on pensions was quoted i1 the debate us an argument fn" the passage Of the bill, but sentence which was not favorable to the toending legislation was omitted, and in his printed re- marks Mr. Payne said no one would seriously contend that wh9t the Pres ident really said on the subject was an argument in favor of the passage of the bill.''

THE PRIMARY SYSTEM
NEEDS IMPROVING
Jasper News

It is the intention Of our editor to
devote some attention to the primary
system and suggest some reforms
which he deems wise and, necessary.
The Pensacola Journal, which is usual
ly one Of the leaders of the march in
political progress. recently suggested
certain improvements, which we had
In mind aud heartily approve.
The Journal suggests that a limit
should be placed upon the amount of
money a candidate could spend in
primary election; also that the state
should exercise supervision over the
circulation Of campaign literature.
These suggestions the Tampa Tribune
classes as absurd.
In our judgment The Journal Is en-
phatically and positively right espec-
tally on the first proposition. One of
the principal defects Of the primary
system as 1t is now conducted in this
state Is the enormous sum of money
which 1t requires to make a race for
any important office. One of the OBJ
jections most frequently heard in this
state to the primary system as we
have 1t is the amount of money
candidate must have before he can
hope to stand any chance Of success.
II Is one Of the chief arguments urged
BY those who oppose the primary sys-
tenn as a reason for its adjustment.
Under our present system the man of
much wealth has a practically insur-
nlountable advantage over the man of
small means. In mentality the man of
small means may tower head and
shoulders above his wealthy opponent;
in character he may be above COM
parIson with him; In debate he may
totally outclass him. Yet all these
considerations which bear directly up
on a candidates fitness for office, I'M
der our present system Of making
nominations are to a great extent dis
regarded and the election determined
by the size of the campaign funds
Such a condition of affairs pollutes
the stream OF civic purity at its source
Any measure which will do away with
this condition of affairs is not absurd,
but sensible; Is not a curse, but a
blessing; is not impertinent, but neces-
sary.
Is there a remedy for this defect?
Fortunately for us who live In Florida
we are not obliged to experiment. The
experiment has already been made and
success has crowned the effort. The
state Of Oregon has evolved the best
system Of popular government that
exists In the world today. In their
primary law provisions are found at
least similar to what we need in Flor
ida.
In Oregon the law provides for the
publication during a primary cam
paign of pamphlet for the informa-
ton of voters, in which pamphlet a
candidate may have published a state

his constituents do not believe in him.
and at this time it would. be unwise in
the extreme to make him leader OF
the senate when Harmony and unison
is SO necessary and desirable. The
senate win need to be solid among
the Democrats and the help of the in
surgent Republicans must needs be
added to It to make the extra session
OF congress one Of beneft to the ma
tion. As a leader could Mr.. Bailey
produce this effect? The Journal is
under the impression that he could
not.
Mr.. Bailey's ability more than likely
has been his undoing. Realizing It he
has gone farther in some of his posi-
tons than q man Of lesser ability
would have gone. However. with all
of these things against him, If he had
refrained from resigning he might
have become the leader of the Demo-
Gratis in the senate.
selecting Mr.. Bailey as the senate
leader would be unwise. too. in that it
would be a halt in the progressive
movement, for he is one Of the most
conservative of the party leaders.
Radical and progressive policies have
won the house to the Democrats and
with a continuance OF progressive
ideas and legislation It is reasonable to
suppose that the senate and the entire
federal government viii be entrusted
to the hands of the Democrats.
To follow the advice Of Senator TIL
man would be most unwise move on
the part Of the Democrats. Mr.. Bailey
is an able senator and will be given a
chance to show his ability and infiu-
ence in the next congress, but not as
the leader.

Showing Up
The Insurgents.

- After cavorting around over the
Rcountry ana spreading their views on
questions of reform. the hands Of the
linsurgent Republicans viii be called.
Always they have renigged when the
real question was at stake-they were
Republicans and nothing more But
khis taking win have to be discon-
4inued now, in the extra session, for
the proposition win be put squarely
before them ana It win be either to
prove that they believe in reform or
else they must admit to the American
voters that they are bunch of fakirs.
Speculation is rife as to which posi-
zion they viii take. but judging from
a Washington report they win prefer
being denounced as falkirs and return
TO the Republican fold to helping the
Democrats do what the people are de-
manding. The report says:
"All indications are that the insur-
gents and regulars In the senate VIII
be found working together at the ex
ira session for the first time in sew
eraI years" says the dispatch telling
the story Of this kiss and makeup at
fair. Truce has been arranged by the
leaders of the two factions. Senator
stone, Of Missouri. with a number OF
other Democrats, tried to make a COM
pact with Senators Cummins. La Fol-
lette, Bristow and other insurgents,
with view OF wrestling the choice
committee appointments from the old
guard. The effort failed absolutely.
None of the insurgent Republicans will
enter into any working compact with
the Democrats They say they ara
Republicans. first. last and all the
time"
Regardless of these reports It is hard
to believe that some of the insurgent
leaders VIII go contrary to what they
have been advocating for many
months. At least it is hoped that they
viii work with the Democratic sena-
tors, for It WIN require their combined
strength to make the extra session
what It should be. The insurgents adj
vocate almost exactly what the Demo
Gratis do. and the people expect them
to work together this time and IL they
fail to do this the extra session will
accomplish nothing.
II is well that the extra session
comes now for it win locate the insur-
gents. They have been accused Of
taking and this win be the test For
them. They will have an opportunity
to prove whether they consider pa
triotism above party. If they fan tia

Some Fine Chickens.

While pleasantly strolling around
Sunday afternoon, our attention was
drawn to Mrs. r. ]. Hart who was out
looking after and attending to her fine
flock of chickens. The more we looked
on and were shown the fine pens of
fowls, incubators, and little chicks, the
more anxious we become in wanting to
get on a farm and try the stunt of
poultry raising our self. We can't help
but think it would be matter of great
pleasure as compared with the trials
and tribulations of getting out a coun-
try newspaper. Besides, we believe
there are dollars to be made at the
poultry business, where there is not
cents to be made in the newspaper
business-Eaurel Hill News.

Why Not in FIorida7


Thousand acre farms may do in the
west, but they are out of place in
Florida Ten and twenty acres are thu
splendid advantages. Tallahassee
True Democrat.
If ten and twenty-acre farms will
pay in Florida, why will not the thou
sandacre farms pay just as well in
proportion? If the same methods
coupled with energy and business
ability are used, we fail to see why ths
big farm will not pay just as well here
in Florida as anywhere else. In fact
there are numbers of large farms In
the state that have been successfully
operated for many years, and very few
failures have been noted.
The most signal failures have been
in counties like Leon, where large
farms have been abandoned by the
owners, Who have moved to town to
engage in other business, and the farm
cut up into smaller farms and rented
to shiftless negroes and irresponsible
white people who conducted their
farms in the fashioned, slipshod
way, which always invites failure IN
any line of business.
We do not want to discourage the
small farmers, as we feel sure that
nothing in the south offers larger re-
turns for the capital invested than the
small, well-managed farm, but the
Democrat must furnish the evidence
before we will admit that the large
farm is failure in Florida any more
than in any other section of the coun-
tryy.-Taylor County Herald.
