Fire That Has Burned 1900 Years.
The sacred fires of India have not
at all been extinguished. The most
ancient which still exists was conse-
Grated twelve centuries ago in COM
memcration of the voyage made by
the Parsees when they emigrated
from Persia to India. The fire is fed
five times every twentyfour hours
with sandal wood and other fragrant
material, combined with very dry fuel.

JUDGE GOULD
 WILL BE IN RACE
Friends Prevail on Him and Demand cd That He Consent to Run Again
 to Succeed Himself.

/ County Judge James Gould has yielded to the demands of his many friends throughout the county and to- day announced that he would be a candidate for reelection to the office of county and probate judge at the coming primaries For some weeks, since the political bees began to buzz in this section of the State, Judge Gould friends have been anXiously urging him to make the race fof~coun- ty judge again. He thought it a little too early to discuss politics, but when his friends made life almost intoler- able for him, he stated that he would get in the race and stay to the end
 Judge Gould's good roads platform is about all that he will have to make his race on,'' said a local ad- mirer of his today. His record along that line will alone bring about an endorsement term for him. He has done more for Jefferson county in building good roads and substantial bridges than any man who has ever filled that office

lifted until she can agai nclasp her SON
IN her arms.
On November Is, 1893. Jack ran

fourteen years old, and, although an
alarm was sent out Immediately, no
trace OF him was found. On August TO-,
1904. he was believed TO have been in
Boone. Iowa. but succeeded in disaP-
pearing before he could be apprehended-

Negroes Only Work
Enough to Get Bare
Necessities.

The race question is not a Southern
or even an American question. II is
worldwide question and includes The
yellow as well a. the black races.
have my own views ON this broad
question OF the relations of the races
/ am not prepared at this time 10 eN-
press them, but in time : hope TO be
able 20 present the race question to
the people OF the North and East IN a
new light
one phase OF the question which is
OF peculiar interest TO the South. and
incidentally TO all who depend upon the
South's great staples-cotton. naval
stores and lumbeT-is the labor situa-
ton here. For much Of the Souths
labor We depend upon the negro. Now.
the negro, taken as a whole. is so con-
stituted that he will not work beyond
the time required 20 earn enough to
supply him with the necessities OF life
and such Iuxurits as he demands. These
are few.
The wonderful material development
Of the South. despite the handicap of
unsatisfactory labor. has created an
enormous demand for the kind OF labor
which the negro Is depended upon 10
do. Because OF the demand for work
men on the railroads, at the saw mills,
on public works and in the various ur-
ban industries. the price OF labor has
gone up enormously In the last few
years. The negro laborer who was
able TO make 30 or IS cents a day on the
farm then Is in demand at more than
twice that figure in other lines now.
The result has naturally been a steady
desertiOn Of the farm and a scarcity
of farm labor.
