we found him explaining to all comers
the merits of choice pen of thorough
bred Berkshire hogs, good, fat, healthy
looking specimens, only seven months
old, and delightfully."- sizable le-about as
large as some hogs are at sweet seven
teen. There we're six of the 7-months
old, two 2-months old and some small
er ones two weeks old, all as fat as
butterballs. Doc kept inviting the
crowd to come and see the hogs that
it don't cost much to keep and can't
root-their noses are not the largest
portion of their anatomy as in some
hogs. The only thing wrong was the
price for the little fellows $40 to $t5
apiece, which places them out of our
reach, but they are worth it for fine
registered. pedigreed stock.

ment to the Office of circuit judge
made vacant by the resignation of
Judge Allison, which is announced for
the close of the year. The appoint
ment will be made by Gov. Hooper,
and strong effort is being made to
influence the governor in his behalf.
His only other opponent is Maj. G. R.
Evans. of Chattanooga, who made the
race for Congress last year against
Judge Moon. 1t is thought that
for political reasons Mr.. Thach
would be the best possible man.
Mr.. Thach is most worthy and
talented lawyer, and commands the
respect, high opinion and good will
of everybody He is at present as
sociated with T. L. Stewart in the
practice of the law, and is one of the
most prominent members of the Nal
ion bar That his friends would be
delighted at seeing him elevated to the
judgeship' goes without saying.

Forest fires are burning on the east

ed in consequence of those fires, thus
cutting off the timber growth for fu
ture generations. 1t is strange that
people cannot see this point, and stop
this foolish custom of setting the
woods on fire. The T G. I. Co., has
a standing reward of $100.0 90 for in
formation as to any party or parties
setting fire in woodland owned by
them, and other companies and own
ers in this section should promptly
follow suit. The wealth that is being
destroyed by these fires annually is
enormous The burning of the leaves
is also Of assistance in maintaining
douth as the leaves which should form
mulch on the ground were long
since consumed by fire leaving the
ground bare and unable to retain the
moisture. Remove the verdure from
the earth, both on the ground and
trees, and in short while there would
be a first class desert in Sequachee
Valley. Did you ever think of that
Therefore, do not burn the leaves, but
rather conserve them as retainers of
fertility and moisture.

Socialism, the Big Question
Editor News:

| EultOr news;
The Path Finder, Washington. d.
C.. has this to say of Socialism.
/ THE heavy gains made by the So
/ cialists in the recent elections seem tC
have suddenly wakened our statesmen
and publicists to a crisis that has
been long gathering. The Socialists
have been sneered at, shifted at, de-
nounced and ignored all these yearsbut
they have been steadily gaining re-
cruits, and now that thev are actually
beginning to win elections it is seen
that they must be reckone1 with,
Some of the old line leaders of
thought seem to be in a panic al
ready, and they predict dire things
for the country at the hands of the
Socialists unless such and such things
are done at once to stave off the dan
ger. F. B. Smith, we'll known Y.
M. 9. A. leader. and head of the Men
and Religion Forward movement in
recent address warned the Y. M. G. A.
that its religious work must be speed
lily revamped to meet the demands of
the day Elise he said, 1--WE are 60
ing to face grave peril If ever
there was a country on Gods earth
that needs religion, our country needs
it now He cited the revolutionary
changes that are taking place in popu-
lar thought, and pleaded for renais-
sance of morals.
Raymond Robins, the Chicago So
cial Service expert, at meeting in
Washington, declared that within
ten years Socialism will be all power
full in this country, unless church men
get together and combat its principles.
The Socialist leaders are arousing
their followers to a class struggle
which has no place in America. The
nation is being divided against itself
along new lines and the republic can't
be saved in that way. He cited the
wlongs which respectable society has
allowed to go on, such as working
60, 900 men in the steel mills for twelve
hours day and seven days week,
and declared that such things must be
righted by the churches and other
moral agencies, or you will get the
new order of affairs unless you act.
"Take your choice" said he.
''The Pathfinder foretells what will
happen if men are not treated better
in the future than they have been in
the past, We know that right here in
our own town and country Socialism
is growing until it will be factor
in the next elections. Evidently the
most able and thoughtful minds see
the laxity of the church and charges
it with perfidy and treachery toward
the poor and needy. They also realize
that plutocratiC powers are not in har-
mony with the divine and are alarmed
at the threatened invasion r.of Socia-
lism Undoubtedly Socialism is the
big question of the day Xxx.
