WORK BEING RUSHED ON
CLINCHFIELD EXTENSION

Spartanburg, s. G., Oct. 5.--MarB
w, Potter, president of the Carolina,
| Clinchfield & Ohio railroad, is in the
city on tour of inspection of the
Clinchfield. Speaking of the affairs OF
the Clinchfield road he said it had
made record in August and Septem-
Der that has never been equaled by any
railroad sin the civilized world"
He was reminded that that was TAX
ing whole lot of territory, but with a
smile, he replied, that he still held his
ground.
The last two months were the best
in the history of the road and the out
look is most encouraging. lie SAID
there had been little complaint of
car shortage on the line within recent
weeks, but that they had recently pur-
chased large number of freight cars
that will relieve the situation and
meet the increasing demands for the
transportation of lime, brick and ce-
ment from the plants at Kingsport.
The capacity of the cement and brick
plants at Kingsport are being doubled
in order TO supply the demand,
The work on the ''north end'-.he
Elkhorn extension Of the G., G. d o.
railroad, Mr.. Potter said, was progress
ing very satisfactorily. The failure to
find stone as promptly as was expected |
in the entrance to the Sandy Ridge |
tunnel, he said, had caused some de-
lay and that they are probably a month |
behind their estimates. 1t is expected |
that this connection will be completed
early in 1914
Changing the subject from railroad
ing to politics, Mr.. Potter expressed
the belief that Woodrow Wilson will
be the next president and based his
prediction upon the great popularity
Of the New Jersey governor in the east.

JUDGE JOSEPH E, JONES

Judge Jones has withdrawn from the
race for the senate, leaving the contest
between Judge McAiister and Gov
Patterson. Judge Jones, in expiana
ton of his withdrawal, states that in
his opinion the 'liquor plankn was in.
serted in the platform to "make il
odiouso for those not dominated by OF
in league with the the liquor interests,
to participate in conventions and pri-
maries, and that the "party boss" (by
whom presumably he means Patter-
SOM has "cracked his whip and
driven men long enough. For these
reasons he withdraws from the race
and will not run in the primary.
Further reflection must convince
Judge Jones that the "liquor plank
was not inserted to make it "odiousn
for men of his views to participate in
primaries and conventions. How could
that be done even if it were desired?
Upon reflection he will be obliged to
admit that it was adopted for an al
together different purpose-for the
very purpose of preventing liquor men,
and particularly the lawless traffic
that is conducted in our cities, from
being used rs an intimidated and cor.
rupted political power by local bosses.
He will recall that even Hooper's or
glr, the Banner admitted ard con-
ceded that modification of statewide
laws would hc "wise, and that they
ought never TO have been enacted.
But as to political "boss" who
"cracks his whip Judge Jones, we
fesl sure upon reflection, will also
admit that such boss, il there is one,
is and ought to be offensive TO right
minded men, and he ought to have
faith enough in Tennesseans 10 believe
that if such a Hbossn be but combatted
there will be right minded men enough
to beat him
Votes are things that beat in poll
tics, and unless those who oppose
"boss," vote, those who believe in any
particular boss will elect him. The
people can be relied upon when proper
~ appealed TO, hut there must be an
70 take the concrete case
which Judge Jones considers: Since
his withdrawal the race is between
Judge McAlister and Gov. Patterson.
Surely those who regard Gov. Patter.
son as Judge Jones apparently now
does, can cheerfully support Judge
Those who do not take the
view of Judge Jones, yet still oppose
the candidacy of GOV. Patterson, will
Of course, vote against Gov. Patterson.
II this does not promise victorious OPP
position, if ii should be that, after all, |
n a fair election, Gov. Patterson |
should chance TO win, the case will be
one III which the people have spoken,
and the majority should rule.
Evidently Judge Jones did not re-
,eive the encouragement he expected, |
put that was inevitable, since he ran

Pr0lOn ging Life.

While no way has yet been found to make
life perpetual, it is fact that life can be
prolonged. Many people die before their
time because the organs become clogged and
can not do their work. To keep their body
open active and free from impurities there
must be no constipation, dyspepsia, hatu-
lency, liver troubles, etc If old or young
people suffer from these complaints they can
find ready cure with DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
