B|LBO IS SECOND
IN MISSISSIPPI,
ENTERS RUNOVER

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. 9-Enough
returns from Tuesdays democratic
primary had been tabulated late
Thursday by the Jackson News to
enable that newspaper to predict the
winners of the more important con-
tests and to add that an upset vir-
! tually was impossible.
With the tabulation Of 239,967
votes, which represented complete
! figures from 70 counties, incomplete
! returns from eight others-only a
few smaller boxes were missing
and nothing from two counties that
together polled probably less than
| 5000 votes, the division for governor
was as follows: H. l.. Whitfield, 49,
500; Theodore G. Bnbo, 1894; M.
S. Conner 4S,517; L. c. Franklin,
1920, and Judge Percy Bell, 1876.
Whitfield had won his place on the
ticket for the second primary, and
Bilbo, with lead Of approximately
Is 900 over Conner, was regarded as
the runner-up and his opponent on
August %. for Conner could not
overtake BiIbo if all the outstanding
vote went to him.
In the contest for state revenue
agent, the tabulatiOn of 40 counties
complete and 33 incomplete gave w.
J. Miller 100,557 and Stokes V. Rob
ertson 1861.
Rush Knox continued to roll up a
majority over c. d. Potter, incum-
bent, and l.. NJ. Burch, for attorney
general and the News declared his
nomination in the first primary as
sured. The latest unofficial figures
give him lead of nearly 10000 over
the combined vote of Potter and
Burch.
The race between Dennis Muir
phree and Fl. D. Money for lieuten-
ant governor developed large gains
for Murphree as the later returns
were received. The News tabula-
ton on SO counties complete gave
Murphree 82,187 and Money 6S,896.
The News declared Secretary of
State Joseph Power renominated
over Walker Wood on the face of re-
turns from approximately the same
number of counties.
Inc count was ROVER, ol,lJO, anu
Wood, 65.501.
Assistant State Treasurer Ben s.
Lowry was running away from n.
y. Cudabac for nomination as treas
urer. having polled S1,259 votes to
Cudabac's 26,7S6 on returns from Al
counties complete.
Willard F. Bond, superintendent of
education, was far out in front of f.
B Woodley, having lead of $4,000
out of a total of 10000.
T. M. Henry, insurance commits
sioner, was out-stripping H. S. Bag
nell in all sections OF the state, and
the vote from Al counties complete
gave him 64,404 to BagnelPs 1920.
J. G. Holton and P. P. Garner will
enter the second primary to decide
the nomination for commissioner of
agriculture, and with Whitfield and
Bilbo will be the only state officials
on the tickets, according to the
News. j. S. HoWerton, the third can
didate for commissioner, was so far
in the rear there seemed to be no
possibility he could go into the run
off primary, the newspaper said.
Garner was leading the three, but
was far from possession of the ma

$l36 Per Acre
From Tobacco

ABBEVILLE, Ga, Aug. S.-Tom
Cook and w. G. Oliver, who farm a
few miles below town, sold their
tobacco crop for $93O5O. The had
only seven acres planted in tobac-
CO and raised $500 pounds. They
sold it to D. w. Ross, a local buyer,
for SIT per hundred. This is about
$136 per acre, and will turn out as
much money as any % acres they
have planted in cotton.
Wilcox farmers have always raised
tobacco before this year, but they
made nothing out Of it for three
years and quit. 1t is very likely
they will plant tobacco in 1924.

Knows Them Well

Do not think for minute that this
quiet, unobstrusive man does not
know them, but he is not the kind
of man who carries grudges. Life is
too short and Calvin Coolidge has
weightier problems to solve.
He is no crusader-just a plain
citizen who clings to the Fundamental
principles that make men and ma
tons great. If crisis should arise,
the American people may rest assur-
ed that he would meet it with the
same courage and determination that
he met the other police strike in
Boston.
Washington cabinet makers and
policy builders are busy now, re-
constructing Mr.. Coolidge's cabinet
and outlining the policies to guide
the new administration. But at best
the most of 1t is mere guesswork.
The correspondents, now swarming
the capital who tried to get him to
elaborate on his first statement re,
garding the course of the administra-
ton, found that he has a mind of
his own, and could refuse to- take
the bait of the accomplish ed and
seasoned journalistic, fishermen.
Program to Be Good One
The writer will hazard this pre-
diction: When Mr.. Coolidge an
nounces his administration program
it will meet with the Endorsement of
the great majority of his party, not
alone in the house and senate, but,
throughout the country. 1t may not
be all that he would wish and it
may fall short of the demands of
the extremists of his party, but it
will be a platform on which every
reasonable Republican can stand
without apology.
Coolidge is a builder-up, not tear
er-down Of party or principles. AS
he said: Good government cannot
be found at the bargain counter"
1t is thing that must be bought
and paid for by those who would
enjoy it, just as he believes that "the
weakness of representative govern
ment is the weakness of US imper.
feet beings who administer it."
