Mr.. Stewart Opposes Bill.

In opposition to the pending measure Mr.

cover any principle of legislation that war
ranted such bill as this"
He saw no more reason for taxing col
ored oleomargarine than for taxing co,ored
butter. He declared that the butter max
ers were palming off unclean and unwhoe-
some butter upon the consumers by color
ing IT,. and yet they claimed that oleomar-
garine makers had no right to color their
product. He insisted that the proposed leg
islation was unnecessary, as there was no
evil to- remedy. --- -s
Mr.. Doiiiver Uowa) spoke in support Of
the apepding measure. He said the oleo-

OF the law already upon the statute books
had put themselves in partnership with

In the Senate today, when routine BUSH

Mr.. Hansbrough IN. Do continued his

He charged that the oieomargarine man.
ulacturers employed methods which were
MOI at all creditable and said they were
opposing the pending bill because It's enact
,nens- no longer would render profitable
their traffic. which had been placed under
the-ban by the legislatures of many of the
states. He declared that the oleomargarine
manufacturers were pleading before Con-
gross for a business that had been out
lawed by many states.
In conclusion, Mr.. Hansbrough Insisted
that oleomargarine should be compelled to
faRe on It's mask and come upon the mar
ket for what it really was. and not as
fraudulent imitation OF a more valuable
product

SUWANEE SPRING.

At Camden, N. j., they were discuss
ing the death of Hon. William ].
Sewell, United States Senator from
New Jersey, when DR.. Taylor, the
family physician, in speaking of the
senator's death this afternoon, said:
He would have probably lived many
years with diabetes had he not gone
abroad, but Carlsbad had always
helped him before, and it was there
that he went FOR relief again. 1t was
there that he contracted the pneu-
monia trouble, and this, with the dia-
betes ne already had, resulted in a
complication that medical skill proved
unable to cope with"
Thereupon DR.. w. II. Morse, the
American director of the Bureau of
Materia Medica, said:
That meets my argument for Su-
vance Springs. l published a good
word for them five years ago, and 1
continue TO maintain that in every
way the water is the equal of Carlsbad
or any other. The Springs are easy of
access. and the psychic influences of
change of scenery and climate are
wonderful. There are no chill winds to
cause pneumonia, and no malaria. My
ADVICE Is TO send all patients with kid
ney troubles to Suwanee Springs, and
let Carlsbad take care OF itself. Springs
equal in every way 10 the most arlsto-
cratic IN Europe, need our apprecia-
tlon, and they are getting IT,"

OPPOSITION rO LEsTERY
A Report That Floyd Scales Has an
Eye Upon the seat.

Tennile Ca, Feb. 25.-From
Waynesboro comes the rumor that
Congressman Rufus f. Lester of the
First congressional district may have
opposition in his race for reelection
this fall. 1t is said that friends of
Capt. Floyd Scales, a prominent young
attorney of Waynesboro, are urging
Kim to make a contest for the nomi-
nation against Congressman Lester.
Mr.. Scales has made no announcement
SO far. and if he has designs upon Mr..
Testers seat, he is keeping the mat
ter very quiet. Waynesboro has al
ways been one of Mr.. Lester's strong
holds, and although the name of Col.
w II. Davis of Waynesboro has been
mentioned frequently of late in con-
nection with the congressional race, /.
is not expected that he will get into
the fight for several years yet. Mr..
Davis will probably go to the state
Senate this fall. it being Burke's time
to name a senator from the Seven
teenth district. After serving a term
in the Senate, 1t was the expectation
of Mr.. Davis friends that he would
enter the race for Congress
Mr.. Scales, the new candidate, ac-
cording to rumor, is one of the most
prominent and successful attorneys at
The Waynesboro bar. He is about 2S
years of age, and is associated with
Judge Lawson, one of the landmarks
of Waynesboro. Ex-Judge Enoch H.
Galloway of Augusta was formerly a
partner of Mr.. Scales.
Since the rise in the price of cotton,
nearly all the cotton which has been
stored in the various warehouses in
Tennille and In the neighboring towns
has been sold. Very little cotton is
now in the hands of the farmers. AT
this season last year. a great deal OF
cotton was still held by them.
DIR. c. V. Smith has been elected
general manager, secretary and treas
urer of the Tennille Cotton Mills in
place of Mr.. ]. F. Lord, who recently
resigned.
Tennille citizens are anxiously
awaiting the outcome of the effort be-
ing made by the Macon post of the T.

tween Millen and Macon, in addition
