SULLIVAN, Ind. Oct. 21.-Losing
control of his automobile on a hill
leading to the banks of the Wabash
river, Mortimer Welch of Fairbanks,
eight miles west of this city, swerved
his car to prevent it from plunging
into the river and the machine over
turned twice. Welch's 10 year old
daughter was almost instantly killed.
Welch, his wife and two other children
were rendered unconscious and pain
fully bruised. Mrs. John Johnson sus-
tanned slight injuries. Mr.. Johnson
Was member of the party but left the
machine at the top of the hill because
he considered it dangerous to go down
in an automobile.

FIT. WAYNE. Ind. Oct aI.-The fol-
lowing bulletin was issued when Col.
Roosevelt's train arrived here today:
Col. Roosevelt is resting we'll and
is very comfortable"
Greatly fatigued but cheerful and
standing the journey better than the
physicians had expected Col. Roose-
Welt reached here on his way to oys-
ter Bay. Much OF the morning on the
train was spent in reading magazines
and books. The colonel read fitfully
for snatches of half an hour at a time
and then laid aside his book TO take
il up later. A part of the time the
strenuous former president openly and
frankly did nothing at all. The fatigue,
however, caused no alarm to the doc
tors who accompanied him. They as
serted that there was every reason TO
believe that the colonel would reach
Oyster Bay in excellent condition and
a weeks rest after he arrived there
would do wonders for him. The en-.
tire trip, so far, has been an ovation,
but the colonel was not allowed TO
exert himself. Even where no steps
were made great crowds gathered and
cheered him.
The colonel admitted for the first
time today that he had suffered pain
from his wound. In speaking of IL he
coined another characteristic phrase,
1T is almost worth WHILE" he said.
Ito be in pain for the pleasure that
comes with relief"

FIFTY BUSHELS TO ACRE
IN EARLY AVERAGE CROP
Joseph Freeman Puts i'm % Acres and
Gets 1850 Bushels.

Blakely Ga, June 17.-Joseph Free
man is one of Early county's most sue
cessful farmers. Last year he cult
waited twenty-five acres of corn in
the farmers cooperative demonstra-
ton work. From this field he gather
ed 1850 bushels of corn, an average
of 80 bushels per acre This would be
considered a fine yield in Iowa or
Kansas and proves that Georgia can
grow corn equal to any state in the
union. This year he hopes to get
equally as good a yield, though on
account of the excessive rainfall in the
past winter and spring he could not
prepare the seed bed as we'll as last
year. He expects to make up for
this by rapid tillage.
Mr.. Freeman is said to be perhaps
the best equipped farmer in the coun-
ty in the matter of stock and farm ma
chinery. He works twelve mules on a
six mule farm and has all the farm
ing implements. necessary for deep
breaking and rapid tillage of the soil.
Mr.. Freeman has not planted an cot
ton at all this year, but is devoting his
attention to corn, hay, peanuts and
syrup. He has twenty acres in pea
nuts which he planted for seed. He
Will buy peanut picker to harvest
this crop and hopes to supply part
of the seed peanuts that have hereto
fore been shipped here from North
Carolina.
Or course, it would be folly for all
the farmers of this section to cease
planting cotton entirely as Mr.. Free
man has done, but his success will
demonstrate the fact that raising cot
ton is not the only way nor the best
way to success on the farm. J
Joseph of old was a tip-top corn

4 STRONG MAN FOR VICE-PRESI.
DENT

The movement to nominate an ex-
Cepuonally strong man for vice-pres-
Gent is meeting with hearty en-
Gorsement throughout the country.
The feeling is rising against the plac-
ing in this important office OF men Of
the stripe of Sherman, the present in
cumbent, a machine politician with
little to his credit.
The office of vice-president is en-
tirely too important to be made the
foot ball of politics, to be thrown as
bone to the hungry dog, as it were.
FOO often in the past it has been Civ
en- to the disgruntled bosses of some
state to appease them, and they have
selected for the office the man salts
factory to them.
The office is one of dignity ana
there is always, of course, the likeli-
hood of the death of the president
placing the incumbent in that office
The people have a right to insist that
| the vice-president be a man of suffici-
lent ability and character to take W
| the work of the president and carry i;
along satisfactorily on the lines that
/ have been laid down by the admins
tration. Under no conditions is it pos
chile that the voters would have Sc.
| lected such a man as Sherman 70,
president, yet for four years there ha.
been the possibility of his succeeding
to the chair.
The Democratic party can strength
en- itself tremendously with the pub
lie by making both of its nominees
men of the highest qualifications. Tn
vice-president should be a man equal
ly as strong mentally, equally as ex
perienced, equally as honorable, ECU
ally as free from undue corporate in
j fiuences, as the head of the ticket. T
nominate such a man will strengthen
the entire ticket, appeal to the publ
as another evidence of the sanity .
the party, and assist materially in in
surfing an overwhelming victory I
the polls.

tiers at the Emerson hotel, which
will be kept open until the entire

Friends of Mr. Clark" said M.
Clifton, have made a tabulation of
the votes in the convention and we
safely figure that he will get at least
$50 votes on the first ballot and may
be 500. Gu the second he will be
nominated The speaker is not COM

ranged for a special wire from his

that he carried states in every sec

speaker. The Clark forces are alsF
claiming the delegates from South
