Only Plutocrats
 Can Eat Turkey

Washington, Nov. 27. The Thanksgiving turkey, higher in price and less plentiful than for many years, will be a rare bird on November 30, according to present indications. Reports to the depart ment of agriculture hint that with the festive gobbler bringing 35 cents a pound now the scarcity which is expected to he more pro nounced as Thanksgiving day ap- breaches closer may result in a jump to 40 or 45 cents a pound.
 Government statistical experts who have followed the upward trend of food prices say that the scale of prices for all table necessi- ties has mounted to such heights that only the plutocratic class may view the big day of feasting with financial complacency.
 Besides turkey, practically all delicacies on the Thanksgiving menu will cost 40 to 50 per cent more than was paid for them a year ago.

CT scope.
 Speculation here on the election of a preident pro tenn centers on Senator Ollie James, one of the youngest members of the senate. Although he has not indicated that he would seek the preferment his friends regard him as one whose name will be presented for consid- eration. The senior senator from Kentucky is known to possess the highest personal and official con fidence of President Wilson, whom he had the honor to notify of his nomination on two occasions, and for whose election he has twice campaigned.
 It is felt in official circles here that the democrats of the senate will select no man for president pro tenn whose elevation would be in the least embarrassing to the president in his official intercourse with that great body. Not that the president is credited with q desire to take a hand in this strictly pri- vate. and inside affairs of the dem ocratic majority of the senate, but because it is known that the eXecu- tive is committed to certain legis- lative policies whose success in the upper branch of the congress espe- cially depends upon a sympathetic leadership. In other words, a lead er who can lead.
 To make a man president pro tenn who is avowedly antagOnistic to tho president would be construed as a bid to executive suspicion as re- gards those policies peculiarly identified. with his administration.
 Probably the first obstacle that Senator James Will encounter should he become an aspirant for presi- dent pro tenn is that his election would take him from the floor, where he is so effective in debate It is this consideration that keeps his friends from urging the elec- tion of Senator John Sharp Will Hams, whose service to the country, the democratic party and the ad- ministration in debate, is uniform ly recognized and appreciated The senior senator from Mississippi has been mentioned in connection with the election of successor to the ate Senator Clarke. >s

This Mississippian
 Likes Paragould
(From Mondays Daily Pressl

o. F. Whitaker of near Tupelo, Miss, has arrived in Paragould to make this place his future home. He is today closing a deal for the purchase of a cottage on the East Side. Mir. Whitaker is a farmer and at later date lie may make other investments here. He was asked by q reporter for The Press this aft ernoOn what attracted him to Par agould. Replying he said:
 'I left Tupelo without having in mind any particular place in Arkan- sas where I wished to locate---meTe- ly on an inspection trip. I visited several towns and cities, including Jonesboro. I arrived in Paragould on the morning of November ', and was at once favorably impressed with the evidences of civic pride to be seen on every hand Tupelo has the reputation of being the cleanest city in Mississippi When I took a glance at Paragould it make me feel like I was at home because this city looks clean and sanitary. Your streets are well paved and are a big asset to Para gould The artistic display win dows of the stores, the pretty white way, the substantial business and residence structures, the well sod ded lawns, and finally the congen- iality and hospitality of the people met all contributed to make me fall in love with Paragould, and immediately decided it was of no use to look further for Q location ---I had found the place that eX- actly suited me"

Ollie James May Be
 Clarke'S Successor

Washington, Nov. 27.-Assured of a majority of 12 in the senate of the sixty-fifth congress, just four less than their present majority, the democrats of that body are now occupied with thoughts with refer ence to the election of a president pro tempore to succeed the late Sen ator James r. Clarke of Arkansas. Although the election does not come up until March, 1917, the fight is on and alignments, some what dim as yet, are being dis cussed among the democratic mem- bers.
 While the position is purely hon orary, it places it's occupant most advantageously for the exercise of power i'll the legislative affairs of the senate. If he be in absolute accord with the chief executive, it enables him to acquire an impor- tant and influential identification with the titular leader of the party who speaks from the White House,
 The probable starters in this fore shadowed exciting contest are Sen ator Bankhead of Alabama (already entered), Senator Oyerman of North Carolina, Senator Pomerene of Ohio, Senator Salisbury of Delaware, Sen ator Martin of Virginia, Senator Walsh of Montana and Senator James of Kentucky. This tentative list may be heightened before the contest actually begins.
 No democratic senator is barred, the only qualification to entrance being established sympathy with the legislative policies which are known to have the approval of President Wilson, By this is meant that the senate majority is not like ly to elect any man president pro- tempore who is not in sympathy with the aims and aspirations of the administration as have been voiced and may be advocated by the president. This qualification would exclude only a few senators on the democratic side, for an over- whelming majority are unquestion- ably in accord with the party lead ership of the executive in it's broad

man. However, members said it is probable the board will have in troduced in the |. next leg islature a bill to provide state aid.
 Tn the legislature, after efforts to repeal the existing bill proved fu- tile, Senator w. o. Edmondson of Stone county, the chief exponent of the repeal bill, had suit brought to test the constitutionality of the act. The supreme court held state aid unconstitutional because it pro- vided for taking money out of the common school fund for use for oth- CT purposes. The bill discussed by the state board of education will seek to correct this defect and prob ably will ask that the state aid be out of the general rev enne fund.
 Other measures discussed by the board were bill to provide a more scientific apportionment of the common school fund, a bill requir- ing all counties to have a county su- porintendent of schools, and a bill to provide for county boards o1 ed ucation.

Heavy Cotton Loss
 Caused By Flames
(From Mondays Daily Press)

At ten o'clock this morning the cotton storage house at the Joseph gin on South Second street was de- stroyed by fire and with it approx imately 175 loads of seed cotton, valued at $25,O00. The fire is sup posed to have been started by a match carelessly dropped in load of cotton that was being sent through the suction pipes into the storage room. It is probable a DOT tion of the cotton can be salvaged, but the major portion of it is ruin ed. The loss is covered by insur- ance. Two months ago fire did considerable damage to cotton stor- ed in this building.
