The other man flicked the ash from

Government Records Available.

The cotton claimants, says the
Columbus Dispatch, have been
seriously embarrassed in the pre-
sentation of their claimes to Con-
gress for the payment of the

which were seized at Richmond
after the war, and which have
been in charge of the Federal
Government ever since. That.
these records may be available
for the claimants, the following
resolution was introduced in the
Senate by Senator Overman, OF
North Carolina, last week, and it
has passed that body. Congress-
man Gambler introduced a similar
resolutions early in the House.
The resolution was stubbornlv
fought by the Secretary of the
Treasury, but it passed and we
are indebted to Hon. Fred Beall.
of Washington, formerly a resi-
dent of this State. for a copy OF
the same. Here it is:
Resolved, That the Secretary
of the Treasury be, and he is
hereby, directed to prepare from
records in his possession, either
those of the United States Gov
eminent or those of the late Con-
federate States, and to transmit
to the President of the Senate as
soon as practicable, a list of per-
sons shown to have sold cotton to
the Confederate States Govern-
ment or to have entered into any
agreement to sell cotton to said
Government, such list to Indicate
whether there is shown to have
been completed sale or only an
agreement to sell and the date OF
the transaction; to show when
possible the residence of the per-
son making such sale or agree
ment to sell, by county or parish
and state, the amount Of cottsss
covered by such sale or agree
ment, the price to be paid, and
whether or not the payment of
agreed price is shown by such

HEAVY DEMAND FOR CORN.

Hon: J. F. Mckay, director of
the cooperative field and demon
stration work of the A. & NJ.
College, believes that the farm
ers of Mississippi ought to raise a
bumper corn crop this year, and
declares that the demand for this
crop will be unlimited. In an
interview this morning he said:
Farmers, large and small,
near shipping stations or in the
interior, have one of the best
chances ever offered to get into
the corn game this year and thus
become a factor in the corn marts
Of the world. It is costing the
jobber one dollar now and into
the nineties in Chicago and st.
Louis. It is November before
this great staple will be in in any
quantities from the great corn
belt. Planters situated within
the weevil infested territory can
we'll give attention to this crop as
a commercial proposition. The
same work, attention and fertili-
zation that it takes to make an
acre Of cotton under the boil vice.
vii conditions would handle two
acres of corn better than the
average corn grower has been do
ing, and it would be as easy to
make on these two acres from
sixty to eighty bushels of mer-
chantable grain, readily converti-
BILE into cash, as half or three
quarters of a bale of cotton on
the one acre fighting the bugs.
Remember that cotton has to
be ginned, pressed and hauled to
a buyer in a shape for them to
offer it to the trade. The same
rule must apply to the handling
of any crop which is offered for
market. This grain crop can be
handled with aFmaller cost than
cotton.
"Our state on account of its
location has thirty days advan-
tage in getting this crop into
market. What price it will bring
depends, of course, very largely
on t1e western crop which is not
yet planted, and the earlier the
product is offered this season, the
better should be the price. Well
cured Mississippi corn grades
above the northern grown aver
age. With modern culture,
modern implements it is being
shown in every county in Mis-
sissippi that as much can be pro-
duced per acre as in any state. So
let US get busy this opportune
season, especially where it is
dangerous to plant cotton, and
make this a market and a reven.
ue crop as we'll as look after
home consumption.

A DEMOCRAT FROM DIXIE.
From the Savannah Press.

From the SAVAnuAn FEesS'
The Augusta Chronicle is very
anxious to have "a democrat from
Dixieo nominated for president OF
the United States.
Certainly; Why mott We like
the sound. Fortunately, the
Chronicle wont have to 60 far to
illustrate its admirable suggestions
During the war between the states
we have a picture of a village pas
tor laboring with his people in a
little brick church, surrounded by
the Telfair square of elms and oaks.
There were suffering and privation
in that community, as there were
in all southern cities. Yet the
good preacher and his faithful wife
praying and working with the peo-
pie, burying their dead who were
brought home from the war, COM
forting the afflicted and binding
up as best they could the broken
hearts. And then came the era of
reconstruction, followingli like black
ness, the fierce blast of war, and
stthe time which tried mems souls"
We still have the picture of the
sturdy minister and his gentle wife
visiting and ministering and pc
titioning to Augusta just as the
good Bishop Elliott did the sanity,
DR.. Arson did in Savannah.
Then there was the only son,
thoughtful and studious sharing in
his young heart the sadness and
pity of it all, and wondering what
it was all a 'out; drudgiug to school
learning lessons of sympathy and
love for the south, which follow
him to this day and which have
made him part and parcel of this
people. Then we watched him 60
to school in Columbia, s. c., and
Wilmington, and finally apply for
7 . college degree at Davidson, in
= he 0id North State, the Presby-
terian school which turned out
] ministers and ministers sons for
generations, Then we saw him as
his career broadened ont, graduate
from the University of Virginia
and Johns Hopkins, all southern
colleges, until a big northern uni
] versity claimed him first as pre-
ceptor and then as president-a
most unheard of thing to reach
down in the heart of the south and
fselect for one of its Oldest and
proudest institutions this "demO.
crat from Dixie" But the lessons
learned in the old Telfair grove in
Augusta and the suffering witness
ed among the people there are
shadows which walk by him still.
His instincts are southern, this
Young democrat from Dixie: and,
in spite of the environment at
Princeton he went to work to dem
ocratize this institution, and then
he began a broader campaign of
education among the people of his
Ncountry.
Born in Staunton, at the head of
the Valley of Virginia, where
Stonewall Jackson rode and prayed
and fought, this young democrat
fromDixie walked sturdily through
life, not narrow and sectional ever,
but brood and democratic always.
AS the ideal democrat from Dixie
! we offer the Augusta Chronicle an
4 Augusta boy, Woodrow Wilson,
who probably spelled out his first
lesson of democracy from the pages
of that good old paper, as he used
to sit upon the steps of the Pres
byterian manse in the early '7O's,
6watching the sunlight and the
shadows in the old church yard
on Telfair street. A democrat

AS to the Cotton Outlook.

UOn I IOOl yourself dUouC Vic
cotton crop of 1928, and over
plant yourself in the belief that
you are "the only pebble on the
beach," The farmers are almost
all of them taking your view of
the subject. and the result will
be that each will try to supply an
imaginary shortage, expecting
famine price for his product. In
other words, each sees a hiatus
that to his hopeful heart is in
visible to others, and will strug-
gle to supply it, with result of a
bumper crop of the 1eecy staple.
There may be a shortage in
other crops. but the great money
staple commanding money on de-
livery always and everywhere,
will hold it's own, regardless of
flood and backward season.
Don't take comfort froom the
floods, so comfortless to your val
ley brothers. Remember that
the last overflow Of the river
lands was followed by a May
planting that gave one of the
greatest harvests ever known.
Those people follow the receding
waters and plant in the mud of
the ricn, vitalizing deposits, and
plant to WIN.
Look at your own prairies. all
the high places are already
planted and on many Of them the
cotton is up.
Depend upon it, there will be
plenty of cotton made-look to
your corn fields and grimly de-
termine that you will make full
supplies of essentials, for man
and beast. Aberdeen Examiner.

when he will pass away, he has

An unfortunate accident oc-
CURED about half way between
this place and baskerville on the
Fourth, which resulted in the
death of Jos. Blacinek, a young
man about 26 years of age. He,
with several companions, was on
his way to Scotland to spend the
holiday.
The train was crowded and he
was riding on the lower step of the
back coach. No one saw the ac-
cident but in some way he was
struck by a cattle guard at the
side of the track and was thrown
from the train. 1t was struck with
such force that the cattle guard
was broken into kindling wood,
and the young man was hurled
about fifty feet. The train was
stopped and he was picked up and
brought to Scotland where he was
taken to the office of DR.. Koobs,
the local railroad physician.
Strange to say nc bones were
broken and there were no sarinns
bruises on his body. bus the brain
was injured by the conclusion
He remained in a delerious condi.
ton until Saturday when Dir.
Californian If Sioux City and Dir.
Ball of Mitchell, two railroad ply.
sicians, arrived for consultation.
1t was decided that the only hope
was an operation to relieve the
pressure on the brain. He was
taken to the hospital at Mitchell
Saturday evening, accompanied
by the three physicians, and an
operation performed. 1t was
found that the brain had been bad
ly shattered, and as soon as the
skull was penetrated the fluid
spurted out in large quantities. He
withstood the operation but died
Sunday night, without regainlng

born in Bohemia and had been in
this country about four years. He
worked two years for Kolda Bros,

for Andrew Schemp. He had no
relatives in this country. One
brother formerly lived in Chicago,
but he returned to the old country
last Winter. At the request of the
Koltla brothers, DR.. Koobs went to
Mitchell Monday and had the
body shipped to baskerville for
burial.
