GET READY FOR THE NEXT FAIR.
Americas Herald: Our county failed
to get either the first, second or third
prize at the State Fair, but along with
six other counties received a prize of
$500. Altogether Sumter made very
creditable showing considering the
short time in which to work it up, and
every citizen should and does feel
proud of the exhibit. Sumter county
should commence in the spring to work
on her exhibit for next year. Have
county fair just before the State Fair
and then ship the whole exhibit ana
walk off with the first prize. The Her
aid offers it's help at the start and will
be at the finish. Sumter is one of the
best counties In Georgia and we should
all bend our energies and let the out
side world know 1t.

David Nation Denies That He Wants
to Separate From His Wife.


Peoria. Feb 20 avid Nation. hus-
Dand of Carrie Nation, has written to
Iths editor of the Journal, which Mrs.
Nation is to edit next Tuesday. stating
that he will probably accompany his
wife to Peoria and that he is more fully
bin accord with this latest of his wife's
ventures than with anything else she
has done since coming so prominently
before the public Continuing he writes:
Will you kindly give the enclosed a
prominent place in your paper?
We are authorized TO say in the
most positive, emphatic terms that the
statement telegraphed from Wichita,
that David Nation. husband of Carrie
Nation is about to institute divorce
proceedings against his wife, unless she
returns TO Medicine Lodge at once. is as
false as sin, as he and his wife are in
perfect accord. This dispatch was con-.
tained in an Interview with him. where
llt is alleged that if she went smashing
saloons in Chicago he hoped she would
be put III Jail and suffer for 1t: that he,
took her part and spent several hundred
hard-earned dollars While she was fight
ing the saloons in Wichita. but when
she goes out of her sphere he will have
nothing more to do with her, should she
get into trouble.
There are more fakes, falsehoods, in
Iterviews. etc, emanating from that
worst of all whisky places, Wichita,
than any other American town. and the
whisky journals take that up and pub.
lish and circulate and magnify them to
accomplish their hellish purposes. Be-
lieve nothing on this subject that comes
from Wichita, where the officers of the
law protect open saloons which they are
sworn to suppress

10 address itself to any of the European
governments or Japan, thru their for
eign officers, respecting its dissent tothe
proposed military campaign in China.
The only influence brought to bear upon
the powers by the department. in that
direction has been sexerted thru Minister
Conger, who has already expressed him
eelf to the other foreign ministers at
Pekin. The state department. last night
sent a copy of the Instructions given to
Mr.. Conger to our diplomatic represen-
tatives, at each OF the capitals of the in
tcrested powers. But it is stated that
this was done with the sole purpose of
keeping our Representatives thoroughly
informed of the progress of the negoti-
atoms and in no case We're they in
structed to make this Conger dispatch
the basis for direct communication
with the governments to which they
are accredited.
Gen. Chatfee's course has been entire
ly approved and he has been notified to
that effect.

Berlin, Feb. 20.T The Associated Press
understands the object of the recent
conference which Ambassador White
had with the secretary of foreign affairs
was to prevent amy petty seizures OF
territories and obtaining of special priv
ileges in China by separate powers. The
United States is seeking Germany S
support for Joint action upon the part Of
the powers In order to obtain what was
needed for proper security of their di-
plomatic and commercial interests in
China. 1t is believed the United States
end Germany are in full accord on this
subject.
The German foreign Office says that
Waldersee's expedition is to be confined
10 the province of Pi-Chi-Li, unless the
obduracy of the Chinese government
makes the extensionto Sian Flu of the
military movement necessary. The cX-
pedition is intended to bring pressure to
bear on the I'hinese court in order To
bring full acceptance of the demands
made thru the ministers Of the powers
at Pekin. The Chinese peace comms-
sioners Immediately telegraphed the
news OF the projected military move
ment to Sian Flu and the latest reports
Indicate the step taken is having the de-
sired effect. ii is supposed at the for
egn office that the expedition Is not a
German movement. but ii Is In the COM
mon interests of the powers and unanl-
mously sanctioned by the foreign minis
ters. including Conger.
