the doctrines of free raw materials, n tentatively naming as members of the Ways and Means Committee of the next Congress, rep resentatives in line with their views have antagonized those Democrats opposing such tariff rev sion to an extent that renders break between the two factions imminent.
 It is said that not only the dom nant Democratic members of the next House signif ed their intention of filling the Ways and Means Com mittee with opponents of free raw materials, but they have determined to punish two of the present mem bers who voted for duty on lumber in the Payne-Aldrich b'll That DOT tion of the party representing ths Democrats in favor of a duty on tho raw materials represents about one third of the party in the House and the action sf the other two-thirds in .gnoring so large a minority in their own ranks, has aroused inter-parti san strife to the highest pitch.
 Bailey to Speak.
 If the Washington report be true. Senator Bailey, of Texas will take as his text on the occas on of the harmony dinner, the action of the dominant element II the House ip ruthlessly ignoring the minority Sen ator Bailey, who is on the program for a speech, s among those Demo- crats who are opposed to she free al mission of raw materials and he E heinz pursued by the majority. Tie fact that the dinner takes place IL two days before the Democratic csu- GUS which will choose the majority of the Ways and Means Committee would make any protest on the part of Senator Bailey extremely timely
 Another persistent rumor is, that. despite the precautions taken by the Democratic leaders to forestall any boom, determined ef- fort will be made to place Governor Judson Harmon, of Ohio, before the assembled Democrats as the Presi- dential candidate for 1912.
 Champ Clark, when seen today is inclined to take an optimistic view of the threatened bolt.
 He says: This is going to be the biggest Jackson day celebrat cn ip the history of the Democratic party and it will be huge banquet, a joli- fication and ratification of the na- tion's acceptance of the Democrat c party to lead them forth from the depths in to which they have been dragged through the long years of Republican domination of legislation and administration. Further than this there will be absolutely no political significance attached to the meeting. rumors notwithstanding.

"heTe the 0ne-IiOrSe Farmer
loses Out.

Gays one of our correspondents.
81 rarely find that my two-horse
tenants more than double the crops
ol my one'horse tenants on double
tne lana and with double the stock"
therefore, he concludes that one.
morse farming is best. 1t seems
never to have occurred to him that
the labor of the man in the case is
worm anything. Does not any
man who will think for a minute,
know that if the man with two
horses does produce only twice as
much as the man with one horse,
he IS Tar ahead Of him in what he
receives for his own labor? Even
If a mans labor is worth no more
than that of a horse, there are two
WORKERS In the one-horse lay ont
and only three IN the two horse.
Hence an increase Of so per cent in
gross returns will even matters up.
Now there isn't a farmer in the
south who doesn't regard his labor
as OF more value than that of male
and, Of course, he is right about it.
There may be, as we have said,
timeslwhen man must do his work
with one.horse, but we cannot see
why any man should be willing, for
that reason, to consider himself
"one'hOrSe farmer and be content
to remain so. 1t isn't a matter of
pretty theories or ingenious argu.
ments, but, as we have said, a mere
matter of mathematics. The more
horses, the larger the farmers earn
ings in practically every state in
the union; and the fewer horses to
the man, the more expensive the
work done whenever other condi-
tions are equal. Against such in
controvertible facts as these, all
the theories of those who argue fol
one.hOre farming amount to very
little Starkville (Mlss.) Progress
