 Lexington is where Southern Good Roads is published, H. B. Warmer, the good roads boosters. editor.
 Spencer boasts of the largest of Southern railway shops, being also the freight distributing center for the entire system.
 Salisbury is the county site of Rowland county and a thriving little city of 15, 5,000.
 Albemarle is a growing coun- try town. approximately close to Whitney Falls. the great water power site of this section.
 High Point is the furniture center of the South, successfully Pcompeting with Grand Rapids. Yes, l like these towns and, indeed. all this section, little slow perhaps in some things, but safe, sound and sure.
 Yes, I know the people and like them. and I think they like me. I hope so anyway. don't you?

Meditation

The following is from the Hayti Herald:
 "A visitor, wondering why Missouri farmers were so poor, paused by the roadside one day. and telling the old mare to browse, fell to figuring it out.
 Missouri farmers get up early at the alarm of a Connecticut clock, button their Chicago suspenders to foreign overalls, put on a pair of boots made in Ohio, wash in a Pittsburgh basin. use Connecticut soap, wipes on a towel made in Massachusetts. sits down to eat Ihot biscuits made of Minnesota flour. Kansas City bacon, fried lin Omaha lard, Irish po atoes grow in Colorado, canned fruits but up on the Pacific coast, and seasoned with Rhode Island spices. Then he puts on an old hat made in Philadelphia, hitches a Tennessee mule, fed on Iowa corn, and blows a mortgage covered farmed with an Indiana blow. At night he crawls under a New Jersey blanket, and is kept awake by Missouri dogs

HON. PAT HARRISON ANNOUNCES FOR RE-
ELECTION TO CONGRESS.

The Echo announces in its columns
this week the candidacy of Hon. Pat
Harrison for recollection. primary elec-
ton to occur this summer.
Congressman Harrison has, by reason
of his capable and diligent administra-
ton of his duties, ''made good" and
there appears to be no doubt of his re-
turn to Washington as the public SER
want of the people of this district. A
young man, a thinker and doer as well;
a worthy successor of the brilliant Bow
ers, who has secured from the Govern
ment such recognition sufficient to
excite the envy of other sections, and
whose record of constructive steward
ship proves that he has accomplished
far more than merely to represent his
people in the empty sense of the term
which is generally too often the rule
rather than the exception, should by
all means be returned to Congress.
That his constituency will do this there
is every reason to believe. Neverthe-
less Mr.. Harrison is going to make an
active campaign inasmuch' that he will
endeavor to see every voter in the dis
trict that he might keep in personal
touch with hispeople, however. he is not
going to do so at sacrifice OF his du-
ties, but has announced that he is going
to stick to bis post as long as Congress
is in session and his presence might be
demanded at the Capitol.
The Echo feels that Congressman
Harrison needs no praise at its hands.
His work, his record, his ability, his
craftsmanship all speak for themselves;
and the people here at home are well
aware that he has made them worthy
and able representative and is deserv-
ing, at least, of such recognition as his
reelection would carry.

.tGrown In Mississippi Printed In Memphis.

Jackson Clarion-Ledger.
"The Bulletin" printed by the State
of Mississippi under the direction OF
Hon. Fl. E. Blakeslee, agricultural
commissioner and father of the
"Grown in Mississippi" idea, has made
its monthly appearance.
"Grown in Mississippi" "Made in
Mississippi" are the legends across
the paper which was printed by a
Memphis concern.
1t is very probable there are no
more printers in Mississippi, that the
presses have all run down and that in
this art this state is lacking.
Commissioner of Agricultural Blakes-
lee explains sending the paper to
Memphis for publication on the
ground that he got the best bid from
the Memphis concern.
Mississippi printers who have been
edited for some time with his highly
patriotic effusions boosting Mississippi
and Mississippi products are jocularly
asking if the State couldn't employ a
cheaper agricultural commissioner from
the Volunteer State as Com missioner
Blakeslee is being prominently ment-
ioned as candidate for governor.

 Most of the roads this year are showing no profit, due, according to their statements, to increased cost of labor and reduced rates. The Kan sas City Southern shows a slight in crease in earnings so far as it's line in Arkansas is concerned, and the Iron Mountain probably appears on the" right side of the ledger, but many of the smaller roads show an actual deficit.

Office Seeking the Man.
Beaumont Enterprise.D

A vast amount of more or less perti- nent comment has been aroused throughout the country by the elec- tion a few days ago in Bibb county, Georgia, to a public office of man who had been dead ten years. The general tenor of the comment is that this was an ideal case of the office seeking the man, for he could not have sought the office nor could he have been a receptive candidate. It was also plain that he was not "in the hands of his friends" in the sense that the expression is used politically.
 The case is not an ordinary one, but similar things have happened before. Even more, extraordinary political happenings have occurred nearer home than Georgia.
 ltihas not been so many years since, in a certain state not so far away as Georgia people who have been dead since Andrew Jackson's day continued regulrly to vote ill city and state cleo
