Attention Democrats.

The State Executive Com
mittee held a meeting in Col
umbia last week and arranged

and state conventions. 1t w:s
decided by them that the State

The clubs will elect delegates TO
the County. Convention which

State Convention. All the
democrats are urged to respond
to these calls. and attend their
club meetings. This is one OF
the most important years in
POLITICAL affairs of many past
ones for the reason every officer
from president to coroner is to
be elected. And the prospects
for sDemocratieysuceess has not
been brighter since Cleveland
was elected.

Pickens County the Gem

A man who left Pickens coun-
ty twenty-five wears ago might
well wish he were again on his
native heath. 1t has made
greater progress in the last ten
years than any county in the
State. In selecting a good place
to live there are so many things
to consider besides the fertility
of the soil. Ten acres of land
in Pickens county are worth
more than one hundred acres in
some places in Texas and Okla
homa, though the. Western land
be ten times as rich in plant
food. More than the soil, more
than the quality of the water,
more than the climate, the char
acter Of the people who occupy
a scope of country adds TO its
charm and fixes its value as a
place to live. So the sage brush
philosopher of the Western des-
ert told the pious parson that all
his country lacked was good
water and. good society. The
parson replied that those were
the principal objections urged
against hell.
So far as the law is concerned
Pickens county was formed on
the 10TH day of April, 1868, when
the constitution of that date
was adopted. But it was not
discovered until about thirty
two wears later. Its people then
discovered themselves. One i'm
portant observation in that dis
coverv was the room they had
for Improvement. This was be-
fore them and became so in

seemed to forget those things
that were behind and to put
their reepers on the curves that
Law ahead. They soon found
that they lad played a losing
game by looking backward.
They took the initiative and be-
gan to experiment. AS they ex-
perimented they discovered the
capabilities and possibilities of
the red clay subsoil. AS the ploW
went deeper the price of land

acre was once a fair price for
farming lands. Now they sell
for from forty to fifty dollars an
acre. There are many farms
in the county for which an Of
fer of a hundred dollars an acre
would not be very tempting,
even if the owners son or favo-
rte son-in-law wished to yield
to the lure of a mercantile life.
The energy, industry and de-
termination which accomplish
ed this is not going to stop IN
sight of the goal. The farmer
is going to go farther and faster
in progress. He will soon close
the hay market to outsiders. A
majority of them now have corn
to sell. An unpretentious specl-

days ago that he had ten nicely
cured country hams he would
like to sell while the price of
meat is up. Another is adver-

item of saving and profits COM
ing to the farmers of Pickens
county when a few of them dis
cover what a good country this
is for stock raising. With corn,
hay, flour and meat to sell,
would they not strike a Bonan-
"a if they should stumble on
mule raising. I have seen some
as fine home raised mules as
ever brayed to the echo of a din
ner horn. Some of the most
highly valued land in the coun-
ty, and hill sides at that, bear
nothing but Bermuda grass
This is the only crop to insure
the hills from becoming bare,
and pays a better dividend than
any eth r crop if its owner is
stock-wise. 1t laughs with YER
dant JOY at the assaults of the
festive goat, and gives nourish
ing food to every beast of the
field not too proud to put his
nose to the earth. It holds its
grip on the soil and will not let
the floods carry it to the valley
below. So in a few years when
the scrub oak and the stately
pine scurry from the mountain
sides and in tt e blazing hearth
shall burn, Bermuda will wrap
their thrones in a carpet of
green. Every acre of mountain
so used will be worth from
$500 to $1,000 an acre. Then
another poet may come along
and make a new song about
the cattle upon a thousand
hills There are just about
that many hills in The county.
This land or rather soil discov-
cry has been the geatest boon
that ever came to this section.
Improved implements makes
improved farms and farmers.

A QUEER OLD STATE.

Did you know there is a state in
the union that loans her moneys to
farmers in sums of $3.50 to $1,000?
Yes, that freak state is Oregon, and
she has been a. it for long time,
ever since territorial days back in
1856. The small borrower is pre-
ferred. Interest is per cent. In
1910 the state was loaning her peo-
pie total of S6,351 ,349, and though
her rules are strict not a single loan
was in process of foreclosure. In
terest goes to school fund. Funny
old state, that Oregon.-Cleveland
Press.
# Let's see Wasn't it Oregon where
by vote of the people a republican
legislature was forced to elect a
democrat as United States Senator?
Queer old state, sure, where the peo-
pie can do as they please politically.

EXPENSES HEAVY.

AS All candidates for office in the re-
cent primary election were required
bv the law to file their expense ac-
counts within ten days after the pri-
mary. For Offices within the county
the expense and contribution state
aments had to be filed with the county
auditor, for the office larger than a
county with the secretary of state.
The minimum fine for not doing this
i'd $50 and not more tnan $500 or
imprisonment for thirty days.
II Among the state candidates Perry
e. Holden, the republican candidate
for governor, failed to file within the
required time Holden is motor
iously poor business man, and his
secretary fastened to Des Moines
and got respite for one day to allow
him to get the statement in without
a penalty.
The luxury of a primary law costs
a candidate like fury, and, win or
lose, every man up for office in the
state at large is able to spend all the
money he wants to, and sometimes
has to, if he desires nomination, as
evidenced by the following state
ments:
If LATE Young didn't lead the
ticket in number of votes polled, he
has the honor of spending more
money in quest of nomination than
any other candidate in Iowa. His
schedules totaled $9,625.01, and in
generous hand Mr.. Young has writ
ten that every cent of it was his own
money. Mr.. Young's biggest item
was for, postage, $4,051.76.
Senator w. S. Kenyon's sworn
statement totaled $S,749.51.
Senator Kenyon's postage bill was
$2,126, office rent, 81 ,577; job print
ing, S2,66S, and travelling expenses,
$1,000.
Senator A. V. Proudfoot, candi-
date for the republican nomination
for governor, spent $1,126,SS, ac-
cording to his sworn statement.
Senator w. S. Allen, of Fairfield,
who was the final winner of the
nomination for secretary of state,
spent $599.24.
E. G. Dunn, of Mason City, demo-
cratic nominee for governor, spent
$1,98649, while his unsuccessful
opponent, John T. Hamilton of Cedar
Rapids, spent $253.5O.
N. S. Ketchum, renominated for
state railroad commissioner, spent
$994.91, his account shows. His OPP
ponent, Chris Ottosen, of Humboldt,
spent $845.70.
