Samuel Paris Bell is announced
this week for Circuit Judge. No
detailed sketch of him or his life
is necessary in speaking of him
to the people of Calhoun county,
to whom primarily this announce
ment is made; his services, as a
school teacher, surveyor and law
yer, are known to all Of the citi-
zens of the county, for nearly
every one of whom he has la
bored in some one or all of the
above named capacities. To be
a good Judge is something more
than being a good party man,
something more than being a
good man, something more than
being a good lawyer; a Judge
must unite all these characteris-
tics in himself; many men can
lay claim to some one of the
above essentials, few possess
them all; of this few, one is
Paris Bell, who, by his own eff
forts and under adversities, has
reached the highest of planes as
regards all these characteristics.
a man who, as lawyer, is equip
ped for the Office, as a party man
lis entitled to the office, and az an
upright man of integrity is need
ed for the office. No better ar
gument against the Recall of
Judges can be put forward than
the use Of the names of such men
as Paris Bell in connection with
that office, men who, as Judges,
will not be swayed be the tide of
public sentiment and rumor, on
the one hand, nor, on the other
hand moved like puppets in the
power Of a privileged few; if the
Democrats in this Judicial Cir
cult exercise the same wisdom |
that has been the characteristic |
of the National Party during the |
past two years, they will nomi-
nate Paris Bell for Judge Of the
Fifth Judicial Circuit, and the
people Of the Circuit will see toit)
that he is elected in November.

tinuously. He comes of excel
lent Democratic parentage and is
a gentleman in every sense of
the word. Mr.. Jackson has a.,
ways been active in his efforts ia
secure victory + Democratic
principles, as is evidenced by re-
suits obtained at his precinct.
He is a comparatively young
man of vigor, earnestness and
industry, and if nominated he
will be elected and make a cap
able and courteous official. Mr..
Jackson up until this time has
never been candidate for office,
but he now asks his friends fol

Lonely SpeckS on the Sea.

Of all the paths which vessels
follow in crossing the busiest of
the oceans the one most occupied
least lonely, is that in which the
Titanic was hurled to destruction.
There the chances of seeing and
hearing other ships are best.
There the spaces between big
steamers are shortest.
Yet when the giant White
Star liner collided with the enor-
NOUS mass of ice which crushed
the greatest ship afoat, no other
steamship was within sixty
miles. 1t took four hours for
the nearest boat to reach the
scene of the tragedy which has
shocked the world, after the
wireless call for help was first
heard.
The fact conveys an idea of the
immensely of the ocean spaces
and the utter littleness by con-
trast of the ships that go to and
fro upon the waters. They are
lonely specks upon the sea.
If all the vessels in the world
that are fit for deep sea traffic
could be placed on the oceans at
regular intervals, as if on the
squares of an enormous checker
board, no ship would be in sight
from any other, though there
are at least "a, 900 such craft in
use.
AS for bulk and weight, the
biggest ships, by comparison
with the sea, are like chips on a
great river. The Titanic drew
about thirty-five feet of water.
Beneath the bottom of the giant
liner there was water for TO-
600 feet. The biggest steamer
in the world was like a peanut
shell denting quarter of an inch
the surface of a wide pond six
feet deep.
Peary calculated the weight of
one ice mass which he saw float
ing in Bafin's Bay at about two
billion tons. That means at
least twenty times the weight of
all the vessels, from scows and
canal boats up 20 ocean liners
and battleships, in all the coun-
tries of the earth, with ever
vessel fully loaded. There is
three cents worth of gold in a ton
of sea water, or in thirty three
tons of water enough metal for a
gold dollar, but so vast is the
bulk of the ocean that dissolved
in the water of a strip 200 miles
wide, from Europe to America,
there is sufficient gold to balance
the 66, 600 tons the Titanic
weighed, or more than four
times as much gold as the known
stock of the world.
Among mans achievements
there are few which compare
with the degree of success which
he has attained in mastering and
making a servant of a thing so
immense as the sea, so violent.
at times, and so uncertain in it's
moods and conditions. Hunting
