BIG POLITICS ON TAP.

AT some time in the remote
past a political philosopher put
forth the principle that the prop
er procedure is for the office to
seek the man, not the man the Of
flee. A careful search of the po-
litical annals Of the country
would probably not reveal a
startling number Of instances in
which this principle has been rig
idly observed; in fact, it is "a rule
that has been more honored in
the breach than in the observance,
but at the same time, Office-seek-
ers in general have a habit of
making some sort of pretense Of
respecting it. They nearly al
ways yield to the solicitation of
friends. "
In the case of the highest office
in the land, it is rare that a man
openly places himself before the
public in the attitude Of an office
seeker it ism considered exactly
good form" but this year itr
seems to be different. The Hon
Miles Poindexter was the first
man to speak out in meetin
openly announcing that he is a
candidate for the G. O. p. nomi-
nation for the presidency. The
senator didn't pretend that he
was yielding to an Overwhelming
public demand and, nursing a
burning ambition in his breast, he
didn't see fit to sit around,
waiting for the lightning to
strike him. Formally announcing
his candidacy, he let it be plain
ly known that he is after the Job.
Senator Borah and johnson have
also refused to let their nodes
ty stand in the way Of letting the
people know their ambitions.
The progress Of the campaign
will soon show how the people
-aIe this sort of direct appeal on
ne part Of presidential candi-
iates. Senator Poindexter set
orth an excellent declaration of
principles i'll connection with his
announcement but thus far there

De SOTO COUNTY FAIR
Is NOW IN PROGRESS

FERNANDO, Miss, Sept. 10. (Spl.)-
The DeSoto county fair, which opened
Yesterday, has proven to be a great sue
cess. The airplane, which 1t was feared
would not arrive in time, finally showed
up and proved to be one of the main
attractions. While 1t has not yet taken
up any passengers, it has amused the
crowd greatly by the capers 1t cuts
tailspins, dives, etc. Thursday evening
the pacing and trotting races began.
The entries of two and three-year-olds
have exceeded the most sanguine eX-
pectations of the management, and II
is conceded on all sides that the home
raised colts, that is, raised In the
county, will compare favorably with any
of the same age usually seen at Tri-
State fairs.
While interest centers around the
live stock exhibits, the agricultural dis
play is very creditable, and the wom-
ans department Is fine, including, as 1t
does, any and everything the women
choose to place on exhibitlon-canned
and preserved fruits and vegetables,
dairy products, fine needlework and
samples of the culinary art.
Friday and Saturday will be given
over to displays by the negro farmers
of the county.
