L The
first gnn of the State campaign
of 1902 was fired last Friday, when
Chai-iman Wilie Jones, of the State
Democratic Executive Committee, iseued
a call for a meeting of that ?omBiitte.
to be held in the office of the
Secretary of State on the evening of
April it. This meeting is simply for
the purpose of issuing the formal
call for the State Convention to le
held on May 21.
Here is what Hicks says in April
umber of his great Word tvrd Works
to the farmers: "Plan to get your
oropg in at the earliest possible moment,
and resolve that you will not
let the ground bake b*rd, after n single
shower, but that yon will keep it
tirred, woodless and soft, even if
the dust should become knee deep in
IrAtl r U ! ") O fh 1 n e M /J At* t ?

r try friends, you''ean bet Hicks
k?ovee what be is talking ubout.
]f all the subscriptions that are,
being circulated for contributions to
ft fund for the purchase of a sword to
be presented to Major Jenkins meet
witli (he "uccess anticipated, the
combined fund will no doubt be sufficient
to purchase a sword with a
gold blade and a hilt studded with
diamonds. We suggest that a fittingly
hand?omo sword be purchased and
the s*i plus be given to some of tho
orphanages, where the little ones are
C-tr. i for. end where it is needed lo
feed and clothe the unfortunate children
perhaps of some brave and noble
oldiir- who gave up their iiws for
their country. Maj. Jeukins is a

W.* : re indebted to Hon, W. J-,sper
Talhect for a copy of his speech
is the House March K;h, on the
rural del very question. He took
the part nf the farmers and stood
for their rights right, nobly. Ho

!<> : f v'. .?. Caioliaa Senate.
Aucr a wrnri^!<? up'>!i a certain bill u
in the Senate, a motion t>b made *'<
to indefinitely postpone, one of the *
Senators befan apf?aking to this mo- ,r
tion, when Mr. Tillman called him g
down and ruled him out of rder, 1
stating that a motion to postpone
indefinitely was rot debatable. The j
Senator took issue with him. Till- r<
1 man citad Jefferson's Manual as au1
thoritr and later suggested that the *
r<
committee on rules to whom the f(
questiou wad referred, study the q|
Manual. Ho also stated that ho had o
telegraphed Hon. W. P. Frye, Preai- v
dent of the U. S. Senate, and Hon. ?
' y
1). B. Henderson( speaker of the
House of Representatives, in regard tl
to the matter ard both had sustained h
his ruling. It now developep that ^
this wus a deliberate mistatement of
the facts, as the telegrams of both w
thase gentlemen have beea giveu to y
the press, and both say the motion ?
is debatable. ?
This puts Mr. Jim Tillman' in a p
hole from which it will no doubt re-? b
uuire his best wits to make his ee- b
L
cape. Had he held that as Jefferson's
Manual was silent on this point.it
left it discretionery with the chair- e
inun <ir president to decide, he might p]
hav? had some ground upon which B
to stand. Hut ovou this would have ,
been dangerous ground, for "us u h
mutter of fact, these motions have b
been debated in the Senate for many f)
years.'' Quoting from Senator Barn- .
well, who also said that he thought ,.(
that nt the Inst session an amend- a
moat hud been adopted allowing such c
a motion to be debated. But Mr.
Tillman knocked even this tottering
? n
support from under hiui when he ae- n
liberately stated thut both of the e:
parliamentarians to whom he had ap- C
pealed sustained his ruling, when a'
exactly the reverse was the case. He 1*
took u desperate chance, when he
calculated that this thing would not
he investigated and the truth brought
to light, and he lost. Verily, the
wuv of the transgressor is hard.

We are terribly behind ou our farm
