A PaErTY SUMNER FROcK.


Childrens fashions always resemble
those of their elders and the pic
turesaue is a notible feature of the
present season. This dress is simple
I'm the extreme, yet the bretelles over
the shoulders and the high waist line
mean just that effect. In tho illus
tration, mercerized batiste is trimmed
with Valenciennes lace. The square
neck and short sleeves are charming
and especially we'll adapted to the
warm weather, but if for any reason,
they are not desired, the dress can
be made with high neck and long
sleeves, so that it. is adapted to cool
days as we'll as TO warm. Soft. pill
able materials are pretty made with
gathered skirt but either gathered or
tucked can be used. For dainty sum-
mer frOcks, nothing prettier than
lawn could be suggested. but little
girls will need many frocks through
ONT the season White china silk
would be very pretty made as shown
IN the back view. Dresden figured
diminity would be charming with the
bretellps and sleeves finished with
rriils of the material Bordered ma
terials are charming just now, and as
he skirt and bretelles are both made
With straight edges. bordered fabrics
IAN be used with great success, while
every mother knows that they greatly
.educe the labor of making. All white
is always pretty and charming, but
some Of the new embroideries are
worked in colors, and white with such
embroidery would make very charm
ing frock
For the six year size. the dress
will require IA yards of material

inches wide with ! yard of additional
material q or 36 or IL yard A in

MARRIED BEFORE INK
DRIED ON HER DECREE

Greenevlle, Tenn, March 2.-Circui'
court this week proved to be the short
est one to be held in Greene county fol
a number Of years. No important
suits were tried and in fact there are
but few either civil or criminal on the
docket. which is certainly credilable tC
the people of Greene county.
During the term of court a divorce
suit entitled Amanda Hckson VS..
John Hickson was heard and a divorce
granted 10 the petitioner, based on The
ground that her husband had beer
convicted on charge of horse stealing
Immediately after the divorce was
granted and before the decree was
actually entered Il license was procur
ed and the petitioner was married tC

Contest With Alex Blazer,
However, Was Close and
Excited Considerable Inter-
est. D. r. McMahan Re-
nominated for Tax Assessor
and Harrison Sexton for
Trustee. First Election
Held Under the Dortch
Ballot and a Very Light
Vote is Polled.

The Republican primary of Saturday
was the quietest in the history of the
county, although the race seemed so
close for Sheriff, Friday Aght and
Saturday morning that there was
much interest in the final result. AS
a result of this interest a large crowd
gathered at The Plain Talk office to
receive The returns and the crowd lin
gered until it was evident that there
would be no more information during
the night, but not until it had been
determined that Sheriff Dawson was
re-nominated by about 25O majority.
The congressional campaign which
had just preceded the county cam
pagn absorbed all of the interest and
there was very light vote as result
Apparently the candidates made no
effort to secure an organization OF any
sort and in Newport neither candidate
had active workers, something entire,
ly new in Cooke county races.
This was the first election held under
the Dortch ballot in all of the districts
and this partly accounted for the great
shrinkage in the vote.
All thefnterest wasin the race for
sheriff. Alex Blazer ran well in
the mountains, but his friends failed
to stand 20 him in Newport and Daw.
son secured one half of his majority in
the Sixth district. Dave McMa han
made runaway race for tax assessor,
getting more votes than both of his
opponents and they were good men,
too, but McMohan's mode of cam
paigning could not be beaten. The
race between Ottinger and Huff for
second place was close enough to eX-
cite some comment. Harrison Sexton
received good vote although he had
no opposition.

PORK GROWING
ON THE INCREASE

Washington, d. c., March 4.-The
growing importance of the Southeas-
tern section of the United States as a
pork-producing region is shown by an
analysis of the live stock statistics OF
the Unitned States made by the South
ern Railway Company. The estimate
of the Agricultural Department show
total of 65,4l0,000 hogs on farms and
ranges in the United States on } anuary
l, 1912, decrease of 100000 as COM
pared with January l, 1911. On Jan
uary l, 1912, the number of hogs in the
nine Southeastern States traversed by
the lines of the Southern Railway
Company, with the increases in each
state, were as follows: Virginia, $780,
600, an increase of 1000; North Caro-
lima. ,4O5, 900, an increase of 81, ,54, 900;
South Carolina, 796, 900, an increase of
$4,000: Georgia, 2,e9S, 900, and increase
of 225 900; Florida, 354 900, az increase
of $1,000: Alabama, 1883, 200, an in
crease of ll4,O0O; Mississippi, ,577 900,
an increase of 10000; Kentucky, L.
724,OOO,a increase of $500; and Tenn
essee, 1,574 900, an increase of $4,000.
The total number of hogs in the nine
states on January 1st, this year, was
12,542.000, an increase over January
LIST, last year, of SS7 900.
Large as these figures are they dc
not measure The full progress of the
Southeast as hog-raising section, for.
with the emore extended raising OF
pure-bred hogs, there is correspond.
ing advance in the average quality and
weight of Southeastern hogs.

HOOPER ENDORSED IN A
CONVENTION OF REPUBLICANS
Long List of Delegates Named to Represent Cooke County
At the State Convention. No Mention Made of Taft and
it Presumed that the Majority of the Republicans of this
County Are for Roosevelt But No Instructions Are Given
\ mass convention was held in New

A mass convention was held in New
port last Friday and delegates were
named to the state convention. An
unusually large list was named as
Cooke county expects TO pihy a big
part in the convention when Governor
Hooper is re-nominatod. The delegates
were instructed for Hooper for Cover
nor and Judge H. n. Cate for member
of the Court of Civil Appeals. No
mention was made as to President Taft
and it was apparent that had mention
of the county's preference been made
that Roosevelt would have received
that endorsement.
The resolutions were as follows:
We the republicans of Cooke county,
in mass convention assembled, recog-
nizing that the administration of our
fellow citizen, Governor Ben w. Hoop
er, has been wise and patriotic and in
all respects credit to himself and TO
the state of Tennessee, hereby heartily
endorse same, and pledge to him our
undivided support for his renomina-
tion, but especially do we approve
and endorse his stand ON the election
and temperance laws. He has stood
squarely and firmly upon the platform
on which he was elected and has in
every respect made good notwithstand-
ing the fact that all of the whiskey
powers of the state and nation have
been marshalled for the purpose of
rendering his administration failure.
The last Legislature, dominated by
these interests, fought to discredit his
administration even at the expense of
the states credit, but his keen percep-
ton of their motives enabled him to
successfully block their game and save
the credit of the state. He also clearly
demonstrated his ability to fill the office
of governor, as we'll as his courage to
stand up for the right. AS citizens of
Cooke county, we take great pride in
the fact that our county has been able
to furnish to the state such governor.
And further recognizing in Hon. H.
N. Cate, an able, honest and official
judge of the court of civil appeals:
Therefore, be it resolved:
First-That we heatily endorse the
administration of Governor Ben w.
Hooper, and appeal to all good citi-
zens irrespective of party or faction to
assist us in re-electing him.
Second-That we endorse the record
made by Hon. H. n. Cate, and appeal
TO all who value merit ana ability 10
give him their support for seat on
the bench of the court of civil appeals.
Third-That we hereby instruct the
delegates appointed by this conven-
ton, to cast the entire vote of Cooke
county for Hon. Ben w. Hooper for
governor and for Hon. II. n. Cate fol
the court of civil appeals, and that nc
proxies be allowed.
Respectfully submitted,

EV ERY COUNTY FANORS

HOOPER'S RE-NOMINATI0N
Nashville, Tenn, March 5.-Accord-
ing to reports received here, every
county in The state has instructed lis
delegates to the Republican state con-
vention to be held in Nashville on
March Il, for Governor Hooper. This
81 atement was authorized Monday by
prominent republican politician who
keeps in touch with the political 'situ-
alton.
"Although it has been reported that
only about eighty counties had in
structed for Hooper, the report is eF-
roneous,' said the above mentioned
authority.
"Every county in the state has iG-
structed its delegates to vote for the
present chief executive for re-nomi-
nation, an evidence OF party harmony
that is truly remarkable, when The
conditions that formerly prevailed in
Tennessee are considered"
In Shelby, Claiborne and one or Two
other counties, the republican cOnven-
tions split in twain, but in every in
stance both factions endorsed Hooper,
although both Taft and Roosevelt will
have delegation from these counties.

Unique Plan of Geo. Messef
Is Brought to Light.
8O-CALLON OUTFIT USED

Well Known Wilton Springs Citi-
zen Had Still! in Second Cellar
Under His House and 1t Was
Operated by Same Engine
Which Furnished Power for
His Saw Mill.
! The discovery O. a ira } door, leading
to the second liar, brought TO the
attention of Deputy Marshall Roe
Williams, Friday the most complete
distilIery outfit discovered in this sec
ton il long time. Not only was the
outfit complete, but it was unique aud
had batfied the officers for long time.
AS "A result of the discovery, G. V.
Messar, miller at Edwina and proprie-
tor Of saw mill above Wilton Springs,
a I'd also fSrner,g was arrested and
gave bond for his appearance at the
next term of the United States court.
The officers had susDicioned that "a
distlI'ery was l)cated in the vicinity of
the Messer place Tor long time. 1t
is stated that other blockaders in the
section above the Messer place were
aalous of the success Messer was meet
ing with, ana that the competition was
so strong that some one turned him
up. Otherwise the officers would ney-
er have succeeded in discovering the
still, so adroitly was it cone aled.
The officers visited the place Friday
morning and began search of the
premises. They had made one COM
plete search of the house without find
ing anything, but when they went 10
the cellar, Messer, WHO was along
endeavored to show to them that all
was well. He had stick and jamm-
ed down among the sacks of corn 10
show that all was solid underneath,
but the officers had outside information
that there was trap door and when
they started TO move away the sacks
of corn, Mr.. Messer started to make
himself scarce, but the officers followed
and he was placed under arrest.
The plan was as follows: Messer
operated the still from the steam fur
nished by his engine which operated
his saw mill, the steam being piped
into the cellar. In order to get rid of
this steam, it was sent up the chimney
and on days when the beer was COX
ing, some one in the house found it
convenient to be ironing and thus give
cause for the smoke protrudng from
the kitchen. The meal was ground
at Messer's own mill at Edwina which
he hauled to his home in a wag on,
telling the inquisitive that he was
hauling same home for purpose OF fat
tening up some fine hogs, and he had
them as proof Of his assertion. Instead
of feeding tbs hogs the meal, however,
he was carrying the beer slops from his
cellar and fattening them on these
slops.
just how long the still has been in
operation is not known. The officers
brought the worm to town and coniis-
Gated the engine which ran the saw
mill, as ii was part Of the still be-
cause of it's attachment.
