If the farmers of Dillon county do

some inducement they stand a
mighty good chance of losing that

I'D Dillon takes the lead over

manifest a desire to secure

rmson will go out of its way
.'ust it upon them. Other
lies are making efforts to Sc
the station by offering lands
me State, but unless Dillon county
lands are ahigh and it will take
quite a neat sum of money to pur-
chase $50 acres for desirable site
but it will be money well spent
because an experiment station will
make still better farmers and it is
good farmers that make valuable
lands. Our citizens should be up
and doing. 1t will not be very long
before the committee that has been
appointed to select a site for the
station will be visiting the Pee De
country, and if Dillon county ha.
loo acres of fairly good land that
oan be offered as an inducement W.

she will land the station. 1t will
be worth more to US than an agri-

THE DEMOCRATS AND CAUCUS
PUBLICITY.


The decision of the democrats in
the house to have their caucus pro-
oeedings open to the press is a proper
step. There has been some advan-
tage taken of the secrecy of the eau
Gus, 1t being charged that the Leaders
rode over the minority as they would
not have dared do were the whole pro-
ceeding open. When Democratic Lead
er Underwood recently invited news
paper correspondents to attend a eau
Gus and use their judgment about
the features to be published. there
was good deal Of surprise. as for
years the policy has bean to thro v
veil of secrecy about such party
conferences. wherein programs are
outlined, revised and adopted.
The action of the democrats in
coming into the open with their ma
tional affairs is wholesome and their
stand for publicity of all matters in
which the people of the country are
interested should move the republic
cans to adopt kindred measures, per-
mitting ventilation of all sorts and
conditions of legislative purposes.
The democrats, since coming into
control Of the lower house of the

mirable things and in the category
OF achievements TO be commended is
the attitude of counting publicity. of

of what is. going forward behind the
