BOND ELECTIONS
WILL BE DIFFICULT
Until Legislature Fixes Reg
iStrdtiOn Rules.


No bond elections, city or county
of any kind will likely be held in
Georgia for the next seven months
at least The passage of the amend
ment to the voting qualifications is
responsible for this condition.
In any bond election the PROPOSE
ton must have a majority of the reg
istered voters to succeed. Owing to
the fact that the legislature will not
be able to make provision for the
working OF the registration law un-
der the recently y-adopted amendment
until it meets in June, the old regis
tration lists must be looked to il
determining the number of qualified
voters.
For instance, in Sumter county
the registration is about 1900, while
the largest vote cast has not been
over 1900. Unless the question were
unusually exciting, the vote would
doubtless be less than majority of
the registration, which would defeat
the proposed issue even if there
were not dissenting vote.
This will work hardship espec-
tally upon the counties which are
preparing to ask for convicts-so
fifty in number. Nearly every one
will need money to provide for the
care of the convicts and for neces-
sary machinery. But to be forced to
carry the old registration load would
defeat the issue before it was put to
a vote.
This tangle will likely prove an
embarrassing one for Sumter, as well
as other counties.

SHORT AND
HOT RACE
Call of Primary
is Delayed
Member Committee for
Short Campaign

A campaign of one week or ten
days, with the primary election dat
ed for the first week in December, is
about the complexion of things polit-
ically. That the campaign is going
to be short and sharp, seems well
assured just now from indications.
Brevity is a desirable element, in
the opinion of one of the executive
committeeman, and may not be a
bad idea, And the other members of
that directing body may hold to the
same views.
The committee will meet next Sat
urday to order the primary.
At least such was the suggestion
advanced yesterday by a member of
that body while informally discussing
the situation
The call would thus be made three
weeks prior to the date of the regu-
lar election, which will be held about
December 18th. Even while late,
three weeks would be sufficient time
wherein the candidates could press
their claims
Il think short campaign BETTER .
said the committeeman yesterday.
1--WE have had whole year of poll
tics already, and want but little
more now"
The mayoralty candidates, three
or four of them, are busy already
and have been for weeks past. The
formal fixing of the election date dis
turbs them not in the least, and when
the call to arms is sounded they
will all be ready.
A weeks notice, prior to the cleo
ton date, may suffice
While the field is full of mayoralty
aspirants, the aldermanic bandwagon
attracts little attention, although the
ride" of two years is eagerly sought
by host of patriots, as rule. But
the boys will get into the aldermanic
game in time.
If the committee withholds its
meeting until Saturday next the
"calP' will be published Sunday morn
ing and with it a bunch of an
nouncements, quite likely.

HUDSON TO STAND FOR
A SEAT IN CONGRESS-
Candidate In Third District
Next Time.

If Hon. Thomas G. Hudson of Am
ericus, state commissioner of agri-
culture, enters the race for Congress
next time, as now seems quite prob
able, the voters of the Third district
are assured anything but dull time
For Tom Hudson is able, strong and
very popular and who ever opposes
him. will necessarily spend many
narrowing hours.
For hundreds of voters already
have picked Col Hudson winner
and will support him cordially, as
will other hundreds when the issue
is squarely made
For some time past Col Hudson's
name in connection with Congress
sional honors has been heard and his
candidacy accepted as one of the
strong political probabilities of the
next campaign
Color is given this in the follow
ing press telegram, sent out from
Atlanta yesterday.
Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 16.-What prom
ises to be a lively political contest
two years hence, and which is prac-
tically on now, will be for the office
of commissioner of agriculture, an
office held by Col T. G. Hudson of
Americus. One candidate is practi-
cally in the race now, and others
are in training with the expectation
of entering the moment they get
a good excuse for doing SO.
The fight will probably hinge on
what Mr.. Hudson does. If he de-
cides to make the race for congress
in the third district, and he is said
to be of that mind now, the contest
for the place he now fills will be
on.
Should he conclude to postpone his
congressional aspirations for another
two years, it is not improbable that
the prospective candidates for COM
missioner viii keep out of the field,
as they all realize that with Hudson
in the running the race would be
beset with great difficulties.
In addition to L. H. G. Martin, and
Robert F. Wright, of Ebert and as
sistant commissioner, who will be
candidates in all probability in case
Col. Hudson does not run, J. J. Con-
ner, of Barlow may be in the race.

Are Microbes In Your Scalp
Many Explanations of Badness Have
Been Advanced. The Most Correct
Is That of Microbes.

The term "microbe" refers to q
parasitic plant or fungi also called
bacteria A microbe is so small that
it can only be detected by the aid of
a microscope Some microbes are
harmless, while others produce var
ious diseases. and derive their titles
through the form of their growth
or because of the diseases they
create, which diseases and infections
are contagious.
Prof. Unna of Hamburg, Germany,
and DR.. Sabourand, the leading der
matologist of France, discovered that
a microbe caused badness, and their
theory has time and again been am
ply verified through research experi-
ments carried on through the obser-
walton of eminent scientists This
microbe lodges in the Sebum, which
is the natural hair oil, and if per-
mitted to flourish, it destroys the
hair follicles, and in time the pores
entirely close and the scalp gradual
ly takes on shiny appearance. When
this happens there is no hope of the
hair growth being revived.
Dandruff is contagious disease
which microbe causes, and later
produces itching scalp, falling hair
and badness. Dandruff is caused by
the microbe diseasing the secaceous
matter, which dries up and scales
off. Sometimes the cuticle surround
ing the hair allows the natural oil
of the hair to force its way between
the flakes of scarf skin direct to
the hair, and the microbe being be-
tween the flakes force them apart
and they scale off as dandruff.
We have remedy which positive
ly will remove dandruff, exterminate
the microbe. promote and revitalize
the hair roots, grow hair and cure
badness. We back up this state
ment on our own personal guaran-
tee that this remedy, which is called
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic, will be sup
piled free of all cost to the user If it
fails to do as we promise 1t will
also restore gray and faded hair to
its original rich, glossy color, if loss
of color has been caused by dis
ease, yet it is in no sense a dye. Rex
all "93' Hair Tonic accomplishes
these results by making every hair
root, follicle and pigment gland
strong and active, and by stimulat-
ing natural flow of coloring pig
ment into the hair cells.
Rexall '93" Hair Tonic is entirely
free from grease or sediment, is ex-
ceedingly pleasant to use, and will
not gum the hair or soil the cloth
ing or pillows

The Inter Island Telephone Com
peny has a new cable enroute from
Halifax, Nova Scotia, which is to be
laid across Upright channel between
Canoe and Lopez islands. restoring
to Lopez the great advantage of long
distance telephone service. of which
the people there have been deprived
since the first cable was broken a few
months after it was laid. At that time
the Inter-Island company's patron
age on Lopez island did not justify
the expense of repairing or renewing
the cable. Most of the farmers who
had phones were members of local
cooperative company and declined to
make contracts for the Inter-I Island
company's service. Recognizing now.
however. the Importance of long dis
lance connections many of them have
ordered Inter Island phones and al
ready thirty five have been installed.
When the new cable. which is 1900
feet in length. is laid, the old one
will be taken up and it may be used
to establish connections with Decatur
island, from the south end of Lopez.

Big Apple Shipments

A press dispatch from Wenatchee
says that all but about seventy five
carloads of apples raised in the We
natchee Valley have been marketed,
yet the demand for apples is growing
every day and there are demands in
now for over 200 carloads that can
not be filled. This is good indica-
ton that the market of the big red
apple is continually increasing. dis
polling the idea that a great many
people have of an over production
of apples.
The Wenatchee Valley apple crop
for 1908 is estimated at between
200 and 1900 carloads shipped by
express or freight.
At Cashmere there have been about
1877 carloads shipped up to date. rep
resenting about 10000 boxes of
apples. About eighty carloads have
been handled by the Cashmere Union.
seventy five by the Wenatchee Valley
Fruit Growers Association. and the
balance by the different produce buy
ers. It is estimated that there are about
one hundred carloads being held in
storage by the growers.
Throughout the county the output
is about fifty percent larger this year
than last year and the marketing of
it has ben very successful. Prices
nearly as high as those paid last year
are being paid at the present time and
apples will be at premium by spring.
