QUEER PLACE t0R LIGHTsHIP
Government Has Ordered It MooTed
in Peach Orchard 40 Miles
Inland.

A lightship in the heart OF Delaware
and in a peach orchard at that?
Sounds strange, but according to No
tice to Mariners No. 81" that is pre-
cisely what the lighthouse board con
templates.
Fenwick Island Shoal lightship, off
the Delaware coast, is to be moved.
and according to this official bulletin
It is to be placed in latitude north 3S
degrees q minutes 25 seconds. longi-
tude west rs degrees 46 minutes 40
seconds.
Mariners upon receiving copies Of
the notice sent out by the lighthouse
board concerning the change prompt
ly began to plot it out on their charts.
When they found that the ship would
be located 40 miles inland from the
coast they rubbed their eyes and be-
gan to calculate over again, but each
time the lightship brought up in
Delaware peach orchard.
How does it happen" Lieut. Com
Bispham, lighthouse engineer of thu
district, was asked. that Fenwick Is
land Shoal lightship is to be moved
inland?"
why, of course it isn't" Then he,
too, began to use instruments, and
brought up where the mariners had
IT'S a mistake" he said. and there
will have to be a correction. We don't
want them trying to navigate through
the state of Delaware. That longitude
should be IA degrees instead of 75."-

Postal Card DANCERS.

A postal card is great convenience,
but it may be used in a way that will
make considerable trouble, says the
Utica Press. Section 1898 of the fed
erai statutes makes it misdemeanor
to place in the mails postal card on
which is written statement of ac-
count or demand for money of any
description. A Rochester photographer
was arrested on charge of sending to
a woman customer on postal card
a bill for two dollars for photographs.
He wrote on the card that the bill
was year old and suggested that it
be paid in weekly installments of FIVE
cents. On being arraigned he pleaded
not guilty and put up $3.50 bail.

THE TAINT OF STANDARD OIL.

The tenacity with which Senator J.
W. Bailey, of Texas, maintains his
control of the political machinery of
that state has again been demonstrate
ed in the action of the Texas Demo-
Gratis in indorsing the name of the SEN
ator as presidential nominee for 1912.
Senator Bailey's connection with
the Waters-Pierce Oil Company (affil-
lated with the Standard Oil Corpora
tion), which was shown up so clearly
a few years ago when the attack OF
certain Northern magazines and news
papers fastened suspicion so strongly
on the name of the senator that all
thinking people felt constrained to
question his motives in connection
with the Standard Oil deals or abso-
lutely to doubt his integrity and hon.
esty, is sufficient to cause his name to
be passed by in a serious consideration
of a presidential candidate.
1t will be recalled that the Standard
Oil corporation was shut out from
doing business in Texas, so that the
trust adopted the method of circum-
venting TIE Texas laws by entering the
state under the name of the Waters
Pierce Oil Company. The question
able nature of Senator Bailey's connec-
ton with the entering Of the subsid-
larry company into the Texas field was
brought clearly to the attention of
the public by the publication in the
New York World of kilograms that
fastened suspicion very strongly on
Senator Bailey. The Cosmopolitan
Magazine also published a series OF
| scathing articles that showed up the
duplicity of the Texas senator. Other
publications also took part in TIE fight.
Those opposed to Senator Bailey at
once took up the matter in Texas, and
it was only by the bitterest kind of a
| fight that the senator secured a tech
meal yindication before the Texas
general assembly. 1t is safe to assume
u1dIDIlLE,
Of the people of Texas believed that
Senator Bailey was at fault in his
connection with the Standard Oil in
! teresSs. That is stating the question
very mildly. Undoubtedly a large
number OF the people of Texas as Wei
as of the entire country believed that
Senator Bailey had been in TIE employ
of Standard Oil to use his influence
unduly for that corporation, SO that
his political integrity was not only in
question but badly smirched.
The faint of Standard Oil is on him.
to put it mildly. The suggestion o.
Bailey's name for the presidency will
produce no enthusiasm. 1t is hard to
believe that the voice of the Democ-
racy of Texas finds clear expression
in this suggestion. 1t likely comes
from the very machine which was en-
ployed to patch up a vindication for
the Texas senator in his hour of sore
need. His obedient henchmen are
promulgating his name in order to
add little more color to the thin
and threadbare reputation which was
woven for him at the ssme when his
misdoings were mercilessly laid bare
by the press of the country and large
part of the citizens of his own state
branded him with the stigma of
public dishonesty. 1t will require 4
stronger and more honest man than
Bailey to lead Democracy out Of the
wilderness.

SIGNS BIZ PROSPERITY.

a prosperous fall and winter season
is before Americas and Sumter county.
Every indication points to a fall AMI
winter trade and general business that
will be far better than that of last
year. With regard to this there is No
better indication than the fact that the
business of the summer has been far
better than that of last summer.
Local conditions are most encourag-
ing. The merchants of the city have
their fingers on the pulse of trade AMI
are making preparations for a busy
season. With general conditions as
encouraging as they are there is no
doubt that the merchants of Americas
Will have need for large and well as
sorted stocks of goods and that they
will enjoy excellent trade during the
coming season.
Local building shows a Hyeliness
and persistence that argues strongly in
behalf of the progress of the city. In
the heart of the business district Their.
are now in progress numerous new
structures and repairs which will
greatly enlarge and improve <he bust
ness accommodations of the city. The
Improvements now in progress repre-
sent the outlay of thousands of dol
lars. AS such improvements cannot be
undertaken without funds that are
readily available, they represent in
themselves an element of progress ana
prosperity that is often overlooked.
Not in many years has more of this
work OF Improvement been undertaken
than during the past summer.
Though the farmers of the county
have been compelled to face serious
hdndrances to the growth of a normal
crops of cotton and other farm
products, it is nevertheless true that
the crops of this section are not only
good but unusually good. If the ger
eral average of the cotton crop of the
state could be obtained, it would U.s.

is no reason for the farmers of the
county to feel otherwise than well

spite the heavy rains of June and the
resultant grass.

many other counties in the matter o!
the excellent fruit crop grown here
this season. The crop was a record
breaker, and in contrast to other coun-
ties in the peach belt Sumter was

DOES H0KE SMITH
STILL FAVOR THESE
(From Open Letter from C. R. Pendlc-
ton to ex-Gov. Smith.)

ton to ex-Goy. Smith)
You take great pride Governor, in
the laws passed by the Legislature al
your suggestion. Two of your meas
ures were never enacted, howevec
One of them provided that the fertil-
izer tax be increased from Is to q
cents a ton in Georgia, thus taking
from the farmers more than $4,000 a
year. DO you still favor tits. Cover
nor? Another provided that all public
service corporations be taxed 1 per
cent ON their gross income, regardless
of whether they made money, in addl-
ton to their ad valorem. This was
advocated in face of the fact that many
such corporations were then operat-
ing on a deficit. Do you still favor
such measure, Governor?
Another matter, Governor. When
you first announced for Governor On
June 3, 1905, you said:
Il favor the organization of tbs
Railroad Commission with men from
different parts OF the State, selected
from business classes, merchants
farmers and manufacturers.
Governor, you appointed four rail
road commissioners. Three of then
are lawyers; one a business man. Twt
of your appointees are on the commits
sion now. Both are lawyers. Both
are from Atlanta. Governor, how dc
you harmonic these facts with The
above declaration? What South Geor-
gia man did you put on the commits
sion; what North Georgia man; whal
business men, excepting Fuller Gala
way, a big shipper?
