Rldford's J^gislative Views
The platform given out by Mr.
Radford declares marketing and
helping the tenant farmers to be the
paramount issues in° the present
campaign. A strong appeal is made
for a system of co-operative laws
that will give the business of farm-
ing the same legal facilities that
pre now accorded commerce and in-
dustry; the anti-trust , laws are com-
mended and -amendments strength-
ening them are requested; the
improvement of railaoads and in-
crease of mileage is asked for;
Woman's suffrage is opposed. The

opinion of an investigating commit-:

Railroad Company that the'fire that
destroyed $1,200,000 worth of prop-
erty at Clinton Tuesday morning was
of incendiary origin.
Chairman L. B. McDonald of the
committee voiced the opinion tonight
and it is expected that this will be
the report of the committee, who for
twenty-four hours have been at
Clinton investigating the fire. .
The committee of investigation
found that no one, had been on the
adjacent barges for twenty-four
hours; that no oil was stored in the
sheds, snd that it is practically cer-
tain the fire did not originate from
passing tugboats. The night watch-
