UNDERCURRENT FOR JUSTICE AS
CANDIDATE TO UNITE ALL
ELEMENTS SHOWN TO BE
STRONG EVERYWHERE.
MACHINERY OF SELECTING
is LATE IN STARTING
Republican Sentiment Not Yet Crys.
taIlized Noticeably Anywhere Out
side Of "Favorite Son States
Conventions and Primaries
Coming Fast In Spring.

Omaha, Neb, Feb. ia political
survey Of the United States from a
Republican viewpoint has been COM
pleted by Victor Rosewater, editor of
the Omaha Bee and former chairman
of the Republican national committee.
The survey is made through sources
of information in close personal touch
with Mr.. Rosewater and Republican
leaders in the different states.
The questions answered are:
How far the campaign for the Re
publican nomination for president de-
veIoped?
What is the present situation in the
different states with reference to pres
idential preference?
To what extent have delegates al
ready been selected and what is the
prospect for factional fights or harm
ony agreements?
What steps have been taken for call
ing conventions or for holding direct
primaries by which delegates are to
be chosen?
Survey Covers Thirty States.
This survey, which covers more than
80 states, including all but four or five
of the more important ones, confirms
the general impression that the under
current for Hughes as the candidate
to unite all elements is strong every
where, and that aside from this Re-
publican sentiment is not yet crystal
lized noticeably anywhere outside Of
the "favorite son states"
Owing to new legislation, the ma
chinery of selecting delegates is late
in starting, only two districts-one in
Missouri and one in Oklahoma-hav-
ing acted. Conventions and primaries,
however, will come fast in the months
of March and April, but the last dele
gates, those from West Virginia, will
not be chosen until the day before the
convention.

WHEN KIDNEYS ACT BAD
TAKE GLASS OF SALTS
Cat Less Meat If Kidneys Hurt or You
Have Backache or Bladder Misery
Meat Forms Uric Acid.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which clogs the kidney pores
SO they sluggishly filter or strain only
part of the waste and poisons from
the blood, then you get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou-
BILE, nervousness, constipation, diZzi-
ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache In
the kidneys or your back hurts, or II
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full OF
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
tablespoonful in glass Of water be-.
fore breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This IA
nous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia and has been used for genera
tons to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to activity, also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it no
longer causes irritation, thus ending
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
tnjure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent lithia-water drink which all reg
ular meat eaters should take now and
then to keep the kidneys clean and
the blood pure, thereby avoiding Sc
rious kidney omplications.-Adv.

fourth smallest county in the state,
ranks first in having the largest num-

is rapidly reaching the $50 mark, and
will no doubt reach the 500 mark soon.
The variety of farm names is wide,
and many names are appropriate.
Many are securing stationery, with
the names of their farms on it. Dairy

THE JEFFERSON DAVIS HIGHWAY.

The Business League of this city are to give a
Banquet Thursday, February 10th, at 8 pm, the
object of which is to boost the Delta route from
Memphis to Greenwood thence via Lexington, Can
ton, etc, to Jackson, Gulfport and Beauvoir, for the
location of the proposed Jefferson Davis highway.
There is to be a convention in Memphis Feb
ruary 1913, composed of delegates appointed by
others interested. There is a strong effort going to
be made to have this highway located through the
hill country all the way and if the people of
the Delta want the location of this highway
through the Delta, at least a part of the way,
they must send to Memphis a big, strong delegation.
In the interest of Greenwood every member Of the
Business League and invited guests should attend
this banquet and arouse active and energetic
enthusiasm in the movement.
There are many reasons why the location Of
this highway should be part Of the way through the
Delta, some of them are as follows: It will enable
the tourist to get a view Of a part Of the garden
spot of our State; a very considerable part of the
Improved highway is already constructed in Goa
homa and Leflore counties and in a short while
Leflore county will construct additional roads and
no doubt other Delta counties will do likewise;
with improved highways the tourist can make far
better time over the level Delta than through the
hills; a branch line can be easily constructed via
Yazoo City from some point south of Greenwood
to the National Park at Vicksburg and with the inn
proved road between Vicksburg and Jackson tour
lists desiring to visit the National Park can have the
option Of doing so over an improved highway.
A number Of prominent people in Mississippi
and several Of national renoWn from outside of the
State have been invited and some Of them will be
present. Mr.. Cliff Williams Of Meridian has &C.
copied and will make a short address.
A strong pull and a pull altogether will accom-
plsh the desired result.

the receipt of an invitation from Hon.
". H. Hays, secretary of the Green
wood Business League, to attend a
banquet to be given in that city, next
Thursday night, to be known as the

This will be the opening gun of the
campaign for the State Highway, to
be run from Memphis, Tenn, to
Beauvoir, Miss. Plans will be per-
fected at Greenwood for the sending
Of representatives from the Missis-
sippi Delta to the meeting at Mem
phis on February II and IS. The
Memphis Business Mems Club, which
by the way is one of the most pro-
gressive commercial organizations in
the South, has called a meeting to
be held in that city on the 18th and
18th of February t odiscuss and if
possible map out the route this great
highway should follow. Various
routes will doubtless be proposed, but
it Gems to US that the best route
would be from Memphis to Tunica,
then to Clarksdale, Tutwiler, Sum-
ner, Webb, G%lendora, Minter City,
Greenwood, and on to Durant, Can
ton, jackson and Gulfport. Branch
highways could be built to connect
with the main highway; as, for ex-
ample, from Tutwiler to Vance, from
Sumner to Brazil, and from Minter
City to Phillip, etc.

CHURCH COSTUME PROPOSED.

Some one is out with a new idea. He finds
snobbery in religious worship. To offset it he pro-
poses a church costume. Everyone must don in
worship a uniform made of canvas or other cheap
material. 1t will cover the wearer from neck to
heels. All people will look alike in holy places. It
is Quakerism up to date. Not a very bad idea, if
it will kill s%nobbery.
But this is a hard thing to kill. If snobbery
were confined to clothes this innovation might work
reform. 1t is deeper than this. One might as we'll
aim to cure pneumonia with a cough lozenge.
Just as soon as you clothe some people in long
canvas garments, they will put tucks in them.
Others will shir them. Not a few will run pink rib
bons over the shoulders. Others will gather them
as a modiste knows the style.
When one is a snob he is a snob all over. His
talk, his gait, his food, his tastes, the way he carries
his cane, his eyeglass, all reflect it.
You know a snob when you see him. He
labels himself. When you undertake to remind him
he is one, he is too obtuse to take it into his crani-
UNI. Let him alone.
So you cannot get snobbery out of churches.
Someone is bound to carry it there, as a flea is said
to be in a church cushion.
