president, was born and raised in the
south, his father having been a prom
inent citizen of Georgia and in sym
pathy with the south in the struggle
from 1861 to 1865. Champ Clark, the
speaker of the house of representa-
tives, is a southerner in his sym
pathies and for political purposes, al
though not living in the extreme
south. Oscar Underwood, the leader
of the majority in the house of rep
Iresentatives and perhaps the most eff
| fective member OF congress, is a resi-
| dent Of Alabama. Senator Clark, the
! pro tenn presiding officer of the SEN
ate, is a resident of the state of Ar
kansas. In the cabinet are found
James S. Reynolds, attorney general,
from Tennessee; David F. Houston,
secretary Of agriculture, from Mis-
souri,; Josephus Daniels, secretary of
the navy, from North Carolina, and
A. S. Burleson, postmaster general,
from Texas.
Regardless of the locality from
which the members of the cabinet
may come from, it is patent to every
one that the effective leadership in
the democratic party is under the con-
troll of southern statesmen who hold,
in the main, the same views that were
held by democracy in the olden time
1t is out of the question to expect in
the prospective revision of the tariff
the protective features which the re-
publicans contend have counted so
much in the prosperity of the coun-
try, will be retained. 1t is true that
Oscar Underwood is charged with
favoring protection so far as the steel
industry is concerned. Birmingham,
Ala, his home city, stands as mon
ument to the benefits coming from
protection, for it is one of the most |
cities in the country. It's
growth has not only been phenome-
nal, but substantial and nothing shor'
Of complete stagnation in business
will retard it's growth and develop
ment. But Mr.. Underwood in order
to maintain his prestige with his
party, is obliged to inveigh against
protection even with regard to the
which has built up his city.
We are of the opinion that the
special session of congress, called to
meet early in April, is all mistake
If the statesmen would but take va
cation until the regular meeting of
congress in December, We are in
clined to believe that business would
continue in the satisfactory condition
in which it is now found, but with the
special session of congress and the
persistent tinkering with the tariff
and possibly the money question, no
one is able to predict what may hap
pen.

Auto Accident.


On last Saturday Clarence Martin
had an accident to his auto that
came very near proving disastrous
He was driving from the farm north
of town and was coming down a
steep hill. His brother Will was
sitting beside him in the front seat
and his father, J. H. Martin, was in
the rear seat. AS they neared the
bottom of the hill Will became
frightened and thought Clarence
might not be able to steer the ma
chine across in safety and he tried to
take the wheel in his hands and in
doing SO turned the machine into the
ditch at the side Of the road. IT
turned turtle and was smashed up
considerably but all the occupants
escaped any serious njury.--Lamo-

Baby Gets Cork i'm Throat,

bottle fastened in it's throat and the
mother was unable to dislodge it.
1t was brought to town to tho
Goodrich drug store but on the way
the cork passed on down into it's

bottle which contained turpentine
which irritated the babes throat,

BANKS TO PAY INTEREST.
Only Seven Surrendered Federal Funds
at McAdOO's Order.

Washington. June 1.-Secretary Nc
Adoo tonight announced the distribu-
ton by States of the additional $10,-
100000 of federal funds which the
treasury department will deposit in
the national banks. His statement
also discussed the manner in which
the banks had received the recent
order that per cent interest yearly
be charged on all government de-
posts.
or the $50 active depository banks
on May /, when the secretary issued
his interest order, Mr.. McAdoo said
only seven have declined to pay the
interest charg and ceased to be gov
ernment depositaries, surrendering
their federal funds to the treasury
The $10,000,0O0 and this surrendered
amount, aggregating $11,5S1,5OO has
been apportioned in various amounts
among 6O7 national banks in ATS
cities and towns in the 4S States and
the District OF Columbia.
The seven banks unwilling to pay
interest, the secretary said, were:
The National City bank, the Ma
tional Bank Of Commerce and the
Chemical National bank of New York
city; the National Bank of Commerce
Of New London, Conn; the Merchants
National bank of Savannah, Ca; the
First National bank Of Buffalo, Wyo.;
and the Seaboard National bank of
San Francisco.
Various banks in different sections
of the country, in expressing their
Willingness to pay the interest
charge" said Mr.. McAdoo, strongly
commended the wisdom and fairness
of the administrators new policy IN
imposing the charge, although it nee
essarily reduced their profit. In
some applications for a share of the
additional $lO,OOO,OOO, banks. es-
pecially the largest ones in Boston
and Chicago, requested q million dol
lars or more of the deposits"

CIVID SERVICE SCORED.
Efficiency Experts Report That Dis.
tributing Appointments Among
States Has Improved Serr'0e,

Washington, May 30.-In a report
sent to the senate today by President
Wilson the Economy and Efficiency
Commission severely arraigned the
operation Of the United states Civil
Service laws, declaring that the effort
to distribute appointments propor-
uonately among the different States
had greatly reduced the efficiency Of
Federal employees and cost the Govern
ment a great amount in the quality
Of it's professional labor.
The report was sent in response to
Senator Overman's resolution passed
last Monday. After an exhaustive in
quiry into the rating of employees or
all departments of the Government
the efficiency experts was greatly
hampered by the fact that applicants
for positions who attained marks but
little over 70 in their examinations
have been appointed to the Federal
service when eligible persons were on
the rolls of other States, with marks
over 80.
The commission recommended that
the attempt to give each State it's
share of Federal jobs at Washington
be greatly modified; that a mark of
S5 be set as the standard by which
the first choice of applicants be made;

selected Notwithstanding the fact
that certain States may still lack their
share of Federal employees.
The commission also recommended
that the Government give a mileage
allowance to persons appointed from
outside of Washington, so as TO put
civil service applicants from all States
on an equality.
The effort to apportion employees
among the States, the commission re-
ported, does not take into consider
alton the fact that each State has also
a large number of Federal employees
within its own borders.
