It also is greater than the ginning to November 14 of any year, being about 100000 bales more than the crop ginned to that date in 1904, the record year. This would indicate that the crop was at least two weeks earlier in maturing and reaching the gins than in previous years. Calculations of the years total crop based on the ginning reports, would, therefore, probably be more accurate if figured on the Novem- Der 14 reports of other years.

 Sentiment in Birmingham
 In the city of Birmingham there are many firm friends of MT. Underwood who are actually supporting the candi- dacy of pr. Wilson. We believe they are sincere in their belief that he is the most available man for the party. But challenge any or all of these to dis prove the facts that l will now give, and which think show conclusively that pr. Wilson is not the man the people need as a leader.
 The facts are that former United States Senator James Smith, Jr., of Newark, N J., brought Doctor Wilson out as candidate for governor. The Hon. James Smith had long been the acknowledged leader in the democratic party Of New Jersey. Some of Senator Smiths per sonal friends remonstrated with him as to Doctor Wilson being the candidate o1 the party Mayor Katzenbrugh Of Trenton was the candidate favored by the so called ring" He seemed the logical candidate of his party. Senator Smith claimed that a large number or
 influential republicans would vote for Doctor Wilson, and that estranged demo- crats that left the party when the pres ent Senator Maritime was stumping the state for the populist party for free coinage, etc. would return to the demo- cratic fold under the leadership of man like Doctor Wilson. It was Senator Smith who brought Doctor Wilson from the classic shades of old Nassaw hall; 1t was his personal following that gave Doctor Wilson the nominations; 1t was
 Senator Smith who paid the freight"
 and New Jersey, along with many other states that the tidal wave of public opin- ion swept over, was landed in the dem ocratic column
 As soon as it was known that Dr. Will son was elected governor, and before he took cath of office. he yielded the big stick as actively as Roosevelt ever did He had patronage in his hands. and with it as a coercive force he rounded up'' the members of the legislature of New Jersey as cow boy rounds up his herd. And his promoters sound this a strong point
 in his favor Could he, if made President swa.' the Hon. oscar Underwood by threats or promises? Echo answers nay Harmon and Fractional Fights Just as Judge Harmon was elevated to 1 tine gubernatorial chair in Ohio by reason of factional fights within the party, so | Governor Wilson has created factions in New Jersey, factions that will war and 1 fight jusl as the republicans of Ohio have done So Governor Wilson's faction al fight will lessen democratic majorities in New Jersey.
 Governor Wilson has said that the gov ernment of the United States is on wheels. because the President is explaining His l Policies" to the people, And yet today Governor Wilson is doing the same thing going from town to hamlet explaining lis policies and begging, like a ward poli- ticiar, for the people to vote for his poli- cies and party.

The issue is joined It is whether the laws relating to taxation shall tax the people heavily or moderately, whether the people shall be taxed so as to make more Carnegies, or only enough to meet the current expenses of the government; whether the tariff shall be fixed by Presi- dent Taft's ''board' or whether, as the Hon. Oscar Underwood has presented it. revision by the people (that are taxed) through their chosen representatives In Congress President Taft threw down tfe gage of battle and the peoples tribune promptly accepted the issue and it was on account of his masterly handling of ttese issues, of welding his party to- gether, of his clear and forceful refuta- ton of republican claims, of his present;l- ton of plain facts for the plain people, that made the men behind the guns rise up and demand that he as a safe and sane representative should be made their leader.
