Jackson, Miss. June 19.-(Special) The straight-line democrats of Missis- sippi-those who have stood shoulder to shoulder with President Wilson during the world war period, and since; those whose red-blooded Amer icanism has never been questioned- had a great love feast here this week during their state convention to n>me delegates to the San Francisco con- Nention and ran the steam roller over Nardamanism and all that term stands for in the state.
 This convention was the biggest and most representative of the intelligence of Mississippi that has ever been held in Jackson. Many men who had been important factors in conventions of a quarter of century ago, before the days of the primary that put the bot tom rail on top politically, were here more to prove that they had not for gotten how to do a little log-rolling or nice job of wire-pulling as in days long gone when they were apt pupils of George, Lamar. Barksdale Featherston, Singleton, Lowry, Hooker Muldrow, Money and others of that great convention school.
 And these old-timers enjoyed the change. They had set the table the night before in the hotel lobbies ani knew exactly what was going to hap pen when they reached the convention ball. They knew that John Talley Of Hattiesburg was to be permanent chairman, that Senator Pat Harrison was to sound the keynote in a speech directed against tn. cohorts of the Kaiser. Debs, Emma Goldman and others who would like to see the gov ernment overthrown. and at the same time pay his respects to Vardaman and his few remaining followers in Missis- sippi who have never had pleasant or friendly word for President Will son and his glorious administration. No names were called, but the GOO stalwart delegates knew who MT. liar rison and other speakers were talking about, and expressed their approba- tion in numerous outbursts of ap- proval.
 John R. Talley. chairman, read the riot act to those who have been coml- blaming and "beefing" against the administration. He told the conven- tion that it was high time Mississippi democrats frightened their belts and kicked all half-way men out of the party. He was not at all mealy- nouthed about what he said, and the convention yelled itself hoarse.

CROPS ARE IMPROVED

Farmers generally who were in Jack son attending the state convention this week were agreed that there has been 2 wonderful come-out in crops during the past two or three weeks, and they are all cheerful and hopeful J. NJ. William son, superintendent of the convict farms. stated that his 7,000-acre corn field Is a thing of beauty and joy forever. A good rain would do his corn good, but whether it gets any more moisture or not, he declares he is good for 2009cO bushels and that his 12,000 acres of cot ton looks fine, promising abundant yield. The 800 acres of alfalfa has been cut twice, yielding about 2A tons per acre on the two trimmings, and is considered one of the best crops the state raises. Po- tatoes, cane sorghum, peas, etc., promise an abundant yield, not only on the con- vict farms, but elsewhere

WILDCAT DISTILLERS

Reports of stills destroyed are made nearly every day by w. Calvin Wells, prohibition director for the state, and scores of arrests of the makers of the "moonshine" have been made. Five wild cat stills have been destroyed this week
 and hundreds of gallons of mash and corn juice have been poured into the creeks and branches. It is generally un- derstood that there are wildcat stills in
 every county in the state, but in some
 counties there are known to be scores.
 Booze is scarce and hard to get, even in the event one has the price of $25 to $40

Because of the showing made to the

 substantiation of it's claim that it never got full count of noses last winter, an other census is to be taken. Jackson proved to the satisfaction of the census
 office that nearly 500 names had been omitted in very small area. These 800 are sufficient to make Jackson the larg- est city in the state, but it is expected that a great many more than this num- Der will be found the recount that has been ordered.

A man named Bridwell, postmaster at Beauregard, Copiah county, was tired and convicted by a jury in Justice Mat thews' court a few days since. His sen- tence was a fine of $25O and costs and thirty days in jail for failure to dip his cattle as ordered by the state live stock sanitary board. It seems that theer is a small area in Copiah county that is still tick-infested, and the authorities have been trying their best to force every man to dip through the spring and sum- mer. The postmaster refused to do so and got a good dose of the law. He re- mained in jail one night and made bond,

Dr. R. W. Harmed, entomologist at the A. 6 M.

So far no locust, or chicada, has been heard of in this Q1inds) county, and. in fact, Dr. Harmed did not look for them in Kinds. It has been thirteen years since there was visitation of locusts in this part of the country, and then they were not in sufficient numbers to do any ham.
