HUNGRY DEMOCRATS
FILL CAPITAL
Boarding Houses Crowded By
Hunters Of Jobs

Washington, March 39.-Board-
ing houses and hotels are filling ur
with Democratic aspirants to jobs
which the House will have to dispense
after April A. There will be more than
five hundred Of these jobs, ranging
from clerk and sergeant-at-arms to
elevator conductor and furnace ten
der They are now held by Republi-
cans, some OF whom have been in for
sixteen years.
There are approximately 100 seekers
for each job, Only five or six Republi-
cans will be retained, that number OF
jobs always being conceded to the
minority.
The Democratic members of the
Ways and Means Committee, now sit
ting on the tariff and other matters,
are being beset with claimants, and
Champ Clark, who is studying how u
be Speaker, can hardly find time for
his lessons, while many of the hungry

peach CROP OkE-FOURTH
OF THE NORMAL
Provided Fruit Now Growing
Does Not Drop

Il now seems to be accepted as a
fact that the peach crop of Sumter
county this year will range some
where between % and 80 1-3 per cent.
1of a normal crop. That does not
mean, Of course, that proportion of the
crop OF last season, which was an alb
normal one. Indeed. compared with
the crop OF 1910, it is regarded as
doubtful whether the peach crop Of
1911 hereabout will pass fifteen per
cent. as a a whole, although on one
or TWO places it may go to twenty
per cent.
The effects of the cold spells are
now readily appreciated by a visitor
to any of the orchards. Strange to
say different trees have been affected
differently. One tree will be found en-
tirely void Of fruit, while close by
will be another that promises TO give
fair yield OF peaches. The latter,
though. are decidedly in the minority,
the greater number of trees bearia.
no signs Of peaches OF with but lit
tie scattered fruit.
One question yet to re settled is as
to wheher the fruit now developing
one the trees will reach maturity. 1t
it yet possible that some of it may
drop from after effects Of the several
freezing temperatures encountered. In
such an event the peach crop would
. be alTost nil
Even with extraordinarily high prices
the peach growers will not find the
present crop one that viii compen-
safe Them The uncertainty of the
/ crop is one Of the depressing features
of the industry and in some sections
there mas developed a strong tendency
to remove the trees and give the ground
up to cotton and other crops. How
ever, this section will probably not
resort to any such heroic eXpedients,
but is likely to 'ontinue one of the
great peach growing districts of the
South
