Cotton Duck for Motor Tires.

One million yards of high grade
duck, to be made from sea island
and Egyptian cotton, has recently
been sold by a Georgia cotton mill to
a manufacturer of automobile tires.
The quality Of this material Is of

One million yards Of cotton duck, one

The Election and Sugar.


To defend the sugar duty this city
and state have relied on senatorial
wire-pulling at Washington. That
day has pretty well passed. II the
sugar tariff survives it must survive
because the country believes in the
merit of a ven tariff on sugar.
The fight must be made for sugar in
the open. The same newspaper, mag.
axine and other public forces that
have made Democratic victory posi-
Bile must be put to work to make q gu
car victory possible at Washington.
The man who advises the sugar
growers that they are safe. or tries to
quiet our home people into the view
that our senators can fix up a deal for
them, or that larger interests can
take care of us on sugar in a quiet
,way-this adviser Is simply foolish.
The penalty of real democracy is that
you must make the broader appeal to
IL intelligent convictions.

ELECTION.

The election Tuesday proved a land
slide for Governor Wilson with 425
electoral votes, Roosevelt "a, Taft
IL. This emphatic expression of the
people is not to be ascribed to the
great popularity of Wilson nor to ex-
eeeding admiration of the doctrines
Of the Democratic party; but should
be recognized as a protest of the
great mass of the people against pres
ant conditions. the high cost Of living,
the oppression Of the trusts, etc.
Under Republican rule, Taft, Roose-
VOLT and before them, these condi-
lions have been growing more and
more aggravated until now a great
wave Of protest has arisen which has
swept Wilson and the Democratic
party into power and from them re-
lief IL both expected and demanded.
The following which Roosevelt has
received is not, as many suppose, be-
cause he is Roosevelt. On the con-
trary, advocating the radical things
he does, unless conditions were as
they are, his great popularity could
not uphold him. But the high cost of
living and hard conditions today have
put the public mind into a revolution
ary state and measures that would
have been disapproved in past years
today are endorsed.
The Democratic party will 60 into

ROOSEVELTS CAMPAIGN,

LaFollette's Manager Satisfied With Outlook Makes Serious Charge
 Against the Colonel.

Chicago, June 1.-The many and va ried complications that have been in- jected into the situation have greatly encouraged the LaF'ol1ette men, To- day, at headquarters, Walter L. Haus- CT, campaign manager for the Wiscon- sin Senator, declared that he and his followers were well satisfied with the outlook. Hauser insisted that during the next week some of the effective work would be done for LaFollette
 Hauser bitterly criticised the atti- paign, he declared was financed by the United States Steel Trust. He de- clared that, despite the fact that the tariff is the real issue, there is not a single person in the United States not even his managers, who has the slightest idea where the Colonel stands on the question.
 Clifford Pinchot, former chief for ester, and James R. Garfield of Ohio, were delegated, today, to do some "handshaking' for the Roosevelt peo- pie. They escorted many of the Roosevelt delegates to Senator Dixon's headquarters where Senator Dixon and William Finn, chairman of the Roosevelt steering committee, met all of the Roosevelt. delegates now on the ground, at noon. The meeting was chiefly for the purpose of "get- ting together and to get line on the strength of the Colonel indicated by the men already here.
