the people of Stockholm in selling
farms to them at 50 an acre and al
lowing them II years in which to pay
for them and also giving them the lots
for the church and schoolhouse and
other public buildings. The humanity
and brotherly love which the Bur

that he has done more for the farm

VOGT DOZIER, DISOWNED,
JOINS WIFE IN MACON
Macon Telegraph

Vogt o. Dozier, of Dawson, whose
marriage to Essie Carter, a resident Of
the Macon restricted district, was an
nounced early this week, came to Ma
con yesterday and went to his wife,
who has continued to live at 318 Wall
street.
In statement last night, Dozier's
wife declared that her husband would
get work in Macon and might remain
here. She said she might go to Wal
terboro, S. c., but denied their inten-
ton of going to Charleston.
This was the first time husband and
wife had been together since their
MARI age. Dozier was released from
jail in Dawson yesterday upon pay
ment by his father of a $3.50 fine to
which the son pleaded guilty in the
city court on a misdemeanor charge.
Dozier came to Macon by automobile
so his wife said.
Mr.. Dozier who is clerk of Terrell
superior court, says he feels very keen
v the disgrace which is brought upon
m and his family by the marriage
of his son to Essie Carter, and
both Mr.. Dozier and his family, after
discharging the obligations which
rested upon him at the time of his sons
marriage, have publicly disowned the
son and will not hereafter be respon-
sible for any of his acts.
/ In order to prevent the marriage,
Mr. Dozier's son, J. c. Dozier, who was
on his brothers bond for a misde-
meanor charge, turned him over to the
officers and had him placed in Jail in
the hope of preventing the marriage.
But after it was learned that Vogt
and Essie had already married, Mr..
Dozler determined to 'scharge the OBJ
legation which rested upon him at the
time and has done so, and both he and
his family have announced publicly
that they are compelled to disown tbs

HAS PARTRIDGES READY
TO GRACE HIS TABLE
When Open Season Comes
Around

When, three weeks from today the
ban is removed from hunters and
partridge shooting is permitted, Mr..
Crawford Wheatley, vice pres dent of
the Commercial City bank and one of
Sumter's next lawmakers in the legis-
lature, can literally sit beneath his
own vine and figtree and kill all the
birds he wants.
Out at his home near the city large
numbers of cartridges, Mr.. Wheatley
said yesterday. come daily into his
front yard to drink at a founta n near
the residence. The birds are very
gentle as the result of their daily
visits to the Wheatley home.
1t is a fact that several coveys visit
ed Americas recently and can be heard
often whistling in the residential dis
tricts. A farmer here yesterday stat
ed that the birds went into his barn
every day to pick up shattered corn,
but he will not have them molested
yet. Seldom before have cartridges
been so plentiful as this season, a
fact attributed to the recently estab-
lished state game laws.

WISCONSIN WILL

Big MAJORITY
$4,000 IS THE CLAIM MADE
By Leaders Of Democracy
There

Milwaukee, Wis. Nov. There
seems to be no stopping Woodrow Will
son in Wisconsin if stray votes mean
anything BY both the face returns
and the percentage of change methods
of analysis the democratic presidential
nominee appears to have a large plu-
rality, with President Taft a poor sec
ond and Mr. Roosevelt a poorer third
There is no sign that LaFollette re-
publicans are going to support Mr..
Taft, and while there is no open in
dication that they will support MIR.
Wilson, the straws blow that way.
There may be back flow toward Mr..
Taft ON the eve of election. This is
possible in the Badger State. 1t hard
ly would be enough to offset such in
dictated pluralities as the straw poll
has disclosed. 1t may serve to bring
the president much nearer Mr.. Wilson
and thus cut down the New Jersey
statesman's plurality. If one were
making pred ctions just now and had
these matters in mind he probably
would guess that Wisconsin would be
carried for Mr.. Wilson by about $4,000
November 5, which is a conservative
estimate.
The attempted assassination of Mr..
Roosevelt in Milwaukee aroused all
the people without regard to politics
and probably stirred few republicans
to pledge themselves to him. Secret
pledges made on the spur of the mo-
ment do not hold long and leaders who
are not biased declare the vote each
candidate is to get will not differ very
greatly from what he would have re-
ceived if the bullet had not been fired
The total number of straw votes in
Wisconsin is 1850. President Taft
four years ago had 54.52 per cent. of
the total vote cast, and on basis or
percentage of change in the straw
test this year his percentage is only
1892. Mr.. w lsons percentage 46.76,
compared with 1886 for Mr.. Bryan in
1908; Mr. Rooseve't's is I'LL; Mr..
Debs is 9.54, and four years ago was

There is no more ardent Democrat
in Georgia than Hon. G. R. Hutchens
of Rome, who successfully led the
fight before the Georgia primary for
Congressman Underwood of Alabama.
Mr.. Hutchens is now foremost in the
ranks of those who are urging every
loyal Democrat in Georgia to turn
out and vote for Woodrow Wilson on
November 5. In an interview just
given out, Mr.. Hutchens says:
81 hope every Democrat in Georgia
will make it point to vote the Demo
cratic ticket in November, and roll
up the biggest majority in the history
of the state, and let it be in this man
ner known that we regard our party
as one who safeguards correct princi-
pies and preserves the sacred institu-
ton of human rights and human hap
piness, and guarantees to each and
every citizen the right to enjoy the
fruits of his labor, without unjust dis
elimination
"As the manager of Mr.. Under
woods campaign, I want to make an
appeal to every man who was vita
me in that preliminary contest to be
sure and vote in November, for first
of all we are Democratic from princi-
pie, and in this patriotic manner,
alike with all other Democrats of the
nation, keep up the fight until we
