halting step through the flowers.

She had discovered me at last, as
stood there in the open space before
the cottage. The woman Hannah
came to the edge of the piazza, and
looked sharply at me.
who are you?" she cried, "and
what do you want?"
l could not answer-I was like one
paralyzed. She thought me some fe-
male tramp, I suppose, for the next
moment she shouted, angrily:
BE off. you baggage. or 1 will set
the dogs on YOU"
In deadly fright I turned and flew
across the open space. and plunged In
to the woods. Luckily I struck a path
which led me down to the gate. Dart

Beyond a doubt now knew that l had

Home to Cats Tavern I went along

No Money At Nine Cents.-Mr. w.
]. Moore, who Is somewhat Of a cotton
farmer, in that he has made twelve
bales of cotton on twelve acres of land
near town this year, says that when
everything has been paid, he will real
ize less than one hundred dollars for
the profit of his twelve acres.
If man cannot make money rails
ing cotton a bale to the acre, some
thing must be wrong, radically wrong.
Mr.. Moore says there is something
wrong and that 1t is the price.
He worked this patch on shares. He
had 800 pounds of fertilizer to the
acre under the cotton. The fertilizer
bill will amount to $3.50. 1t costs
around 81 the bale to pick, and add to
this another dollar for ginning. This
makes quite a hole in the bale before
taking up the fertilizer and cost of
cultivation. To this must be added the
interest on the land. Land at 800 the
acre costs around $40 the acre to own,
and should rent for 10 per cent of its
value.
The cost Of raising cotton is an in
teresting calculation and there should
be more attention devoted to it

ator Bankhead, land l challenge any
one to point to a single public act or
utterance Of Mr.. Underwood's that can
be justly criticised. His private life
and character are in perfect accord
with his public record.
He led the Democratic hosts
through three great parliamentary
battles i'm the recent extraordinary
session and won decisive victories in
each without the loss Of single vote,
and it must be remembered that the
field he chose for the conflict was the
tariff issue, upon which the Demo-

That Lawmakers Were Bril-
ed to Vote for Lorimer
an Undisputed

WASHINGTON. Jan. 9.-Senator
Beveridge laid before the Senate to-
day resolution declaring that SEN
stor Lorimer, of Illinois, was not
duly and legally" elected to seat
in the Senate.
The resolution was attached to a
minority report by Beveridge IRE
publicanj. OF Indiana, who was a
member of the committee that inves-
tigated the election of Lorimer.
In an elaborate analysis OF the re-
cord of the investigation. the Indiana
Senator expressed his dlsapproyal OF
the conclusions announced by the ma
jority of the committee in report
generating Lorimer from all charges
and set forth his decision in the reso-
luton that Lorimer was not legally
elected to the Senate.
Mr.. Beveridge led off the minority
report with the statements:
II cannot concur with the report
Of the majority OF the committee.
TO my mind the testimony Is con-
elusive that far more than enough
bribery was parcticed in this election
to invalidate the same, even under
the Senate presidents upon which the
majority rely
In statement Mr.. Beverage said
in part.
The majority report itself declar-
ed that -four members Of the General
Assembly testified to receiving money
as a consideration for their votes
Each of these men did so testify re-
peatedly.
Senator HolstIaw testified that ne
received his money from his fellow
senator. Broderick, at two different
times. the first installment being 81
500 and the second amoutn being
sT0o
Representatives Beckem eyer,
White and Link testified to have re-
ceived their money from their fellow
j representative and factional leader,
Browne. and from Leader Browne q
lieutenant, their fellow representative.
| Wilson.
Like Senator Holstlaw. these rep
resentatlves received their money also
in two installments. the first being
$1,000 and the second 5000
TT IS Of corroborative Importance
that the date when Senator Holstlaw
received his two instaliments from his
fellow senator. Broderick, are prac-
tfcaliy the same dates on which the
House members received their two
installments from their fellow-repre-
.sentatiyes. Brown and Wilson.
Now comes an undisputed fact ~
icftct hihiphsiI AiAS ahdJoi
ity report ignores II. These confessed
bribe-takers were shown to have had
in their possession. in bills of large
/ denominations. unusually large sums
Of money soon after the dates when
they sowre to having received the
same.
This fact IS proved by the uncon-
tradicted testimony of impartial and
disnterested witnesses.
y Ets.H.~
to the action of the majority of the In
vestigation committee in giving full
credencs to the testimony of Link that
he confessed to bribery only to secure
relief from rough treatment applied to
him by Assistant State Attorneys Ar
mold and Marshall. He cited the fact
