A Washington Dispatch to the Savannah News savs: Representative v«riggs of Geor giu saved the Democratic caucus frommaking a serious mistake nt it« caucus Saturday night. The facts have just leaked out because in the announcement given to the jir-A.fi there was no reference made to this particular episode. Represent sit ivo .Stephens Texas intreduced a resolution pro¬ viding f r t!m n npoiiitnieut : f eniumiU'-j < r f.vi- nn u*i «*rs formulate the party’* p". Turn on the territorial question and mulgatu (hi sis the jiarty’s jiosi- tion.

Whilo llipre might lie noditl'er- once i n* t wee it the action of sucii a committee as was proposed and the platform committee of the national convention still such formal action bv a 1), caucus would ho premature, ami in other ways it would be bad polities. He pointed also that the Republicans art' having all sorts of trouble over the Bhilipine position a ml that it would bo pol¬ itically unwise for the Democrats to take any step which mipht di¬ vert the public attention from their t roubles. 'Lite good sense of .fudge Griggs’ contention was at once recognized ami the resolution of Mr. Steph¬ ens was promptly withdrawn. Tiie Democrats <1) not of course hesitate in lotting tho country know their position on this ques¬ tion, individually and collective¬ ly, but the unwisdom of a party action in advance of the national convention was recognized by all. There will bp a big “Southern Conference for tho Discussion of Race Problems,” in relation to the welfare of Hie south, to bo held in Montgomery, Ala., of which groat things are expected. In discussing tho race problem, the Shelby, N. C'., Star says “it is the sacred duty of every white man of whatever party to lend his aid, inlluem o and support to in incorporate tho organic law of land the principle that is incarnate in the breast of even true Anglo-Saxon, uamelv, that the white man lias the God-given right to rule and govern this and that he will exorcise tl.at high prerogatiye, lot tho quences be what they may. The duty , . of , every white , man is plain, , . and the man with a white skin, who so far forgets Li,melt and the duty he owes to Ins race, as to ally himself on the other side, deserves the contempt and invites the enmitv of even-decent man ' and , pure woman m the South. 0 ,, — Dalton Argus Mow They Work.

Under her nd- minifif ration the town was greatly improved, but men claimed that the moral influence killeil busi¬ ness, so llitt male members of the community introduced a sweep¬ ing reform of their own and placed a ticket in the field against the woman mayor.

She is the mother of two sons; one of them is sergeant in Com¬ pany B, Thirty-second United Staten vnluntccr infantry in the Bhilippines. The Velvet Bean. Experiments and have proven the velvet bean to be vine of the most remarkable plants ever introduced in the South for restoring wornout bringing up poor soils, and it is equally valuable for stock feeding purposes. lions The experiment stu- of I„jisi»tm, Ala............. gia and Florida have fully tested it, und give it ui qualiiied endorse¬ ment. It will yield three tous of eurt'il liny per acre or when turn¬ ed under, tho vines on each aero furnish tho soil with about 200 pounds of nitrogen, equal in fer¬ tilizing value to an application of 2,800 pounds of cotton seed meal. Where it is planted it is necessary to supply potash and phosphoric acid only in growing other crops, etui every farmer who plants it as n rotation can cut his fertilizer bill down one-lmlf. It is tho king <<f legumes, and thrives on the poorest soils in wet or dry weather, and no plant in- trodueed in recent years has aud is attracting so much attention, and it deserves all the attention for it is worth millions »<f dol- lars to the Southern farmer.
