Ho i? a nomnrrat and Will Stlr.l to the Party's Principles. Washington, May 7: ? Sena to j Miiith showed some "emotion'" todai vhen he saw The State, containing lie extract from the Virginia papei tating the new South Carolina Sen.tor was going to vote for protection >11 the products of his State, He was ,t that time turning off a lumber obbyywhich wanted to convince him te ought to \ote for a duty on lumer. Some of the lumber lobbyists, eeing the piece iu the paper, supposed that Smith was open to a propsi tion, or at least ready to be coninced. This iu spite of the fact, the euator says, that he had told them iiat he was goiug to vote the straight )emocratic ticket, one plank of hose platform declared specifically >r free lumber. The Virginia paper iferred to Senator Smith of South arolina. "There are a good many Smiths t the country," said the Senator. Even the Senate here is loaded ith them. This particular Smith is Democrat and whenever he cannot it in accordance with the Demoatic party's principles he's goiug to sign bis job and get out." The lumber lobbyists have been tiling on both the South Carolina ;nators. Senator Tillman told them le same thing yesterday that Smith Id them today?that he was going > vote in accordance with the platrin which called for free lumber. The lumber lobby, by the way, hich called on Senators Smith and illrnan represented themselves as om South Carolina. Six men died at Senator Smith's oSice today, lling him that some of them were om South Carolina and some from her States, who had interests in )uth Carolina. As they came out I et them. "Do any of you gentleaieu live in outh Carolina?" I asked. "Well," answered one straightforard, honest-looking fellojy, "I ave interests there, but 1 cannot :actly say 1 live there. I live in ew York." "Are any of the others from South arolina?'' I asked. "No, sir,'' was his reply. Zach M< (thee. THE THRU E-A~WEEK WORLD, The Greatest Newspaper of its Type.

[ How the South Loses by Sticking to One Crop. r J We notice in a Southern uews-; r! paper an article concerning thet ' j wasteful methods in marketing the . I cotton crop, Mr George W Truitt L says, "Quit going in debt to laise . cotton," and Mr Leonidas F S?x>tt > i insists that the reason a 600 million ! dollar cotton crop does not make the South the richest country in the, world is that Southern farmers buy hay and corn at extortiouate prices, bay them regardless of price. ;' Continuing Mr Scott says that j Hanrnia Knra 1 millinnc snrili ftf : 1 , V*W*g?I? WW J o X | UillllVUB ?f V**U V* fertilizers aunually. He ad*^Arther that in the past ten yea1 .Ve have lost 300 millions in '. : in i * I carelessly packing cotton b a. '* j Ninety farmers out of every hut ,-ed j he says, think they get paid for the . wrappings from a bab of cotton. . As a matter of fact, thirty pounds, t 6 per cent tare, is taken off of the ' price of every bale. If each bale of . the 1909 crop wa& properly com- , pressed when ginned and wrapped in cotton it would mean a saving of 30 millions. We join Mr Scott and Mr Truitt in urging, as we have done for the past generation, the diversification of Southern Agriculture. Every farm is not equally adapted to every crop. Let each farmer find out what his soil is adapted to and raise something besides cotton, liaise corn and cattle, raise hogs, raise oats and alfalfa aud Southern cow peas. In this direction lies independence for the Southern farmer.? Home cf Farm. P.P.P.I P. P.
