Cooperation and Brotherhood.

The Almighty has so planned it that
we cannot achieve real success in life
without fellowship and brotherhood
without a willingness to work with our
fellows and trust them and bear with
them and help them. Otherwise, we
not only cannot find the happiness and
satisfaction that should be ours, but
as a people we cannot even prosper
greatly in matters Of dollars and cents.
And II trial and financial loss should
now cause our farmers to develop in
fuller degree this spirit of comrade-
ship and brotherhood, then the present
light affection in cotton prices may be
worth a thousand times its cost.-The

THIRTY CENTS HOUR
ELECTION PAY NOW
Bill First Passed Provided for In,
crease of TWO Bits But This Was
Amended to Only Jitney Raise.

Clerks and judges Of election for
some time have been manifesting con-
siderable dissatisfaction with, the com.
Ipensation offered by the state for the
performance of duties attached to tn"
various Offices in connection with the
polling places. The law provided that
Judges ana clerks of election should
receive remuneration at the rate OF
25 cents an hour. This was not deem
ed sufficient and movement was
started in the .last general assembly
to increase the compensation to 50
cents an hour. hose persons who ha |
the proper influence and who had beer
accustomed to be appointed to the jobs
;about the polling places were jubilant
when the house and senate passed
bill in accordance with the desires OF
the party wol-ers. Unfortunately in
the closing hours of the last general
assembly some one proposed an
amendment to the bill making so cents
an hour read 80 cents an hour This
was passed but its pas
sage was not advertised so broadly as
was the original bill. Many of the val
liant party workers in the state will
suffer heart failure when the actual
state of affairs come to light, because
80 cents an hour is only an increase
I of five cents an hour over the old rate.
