W0ULD.BE LEADERS
PRIME Their GUNS
All But Sheppard, Of Sumter,
Have KimbalI Headquarters

Atlanta, Ga, June 13-The several
candidates for the presidency of the
senate and the speakership of the
touse have engaged headquarters in
the Kimball, with the exception of Re-
preventative j. f. Sheppard, of Sum-
ter county.
j. Randolph Anderson, of Chatham,
candidate for president of the senate,
has engaged rooms 1O5 and 10Y.
Judge John T. Allen, of Baldwin,
candidate for president of the senate,
has engaged rooms 2OS and 21O.
William H. Burwell, of Hancock,
candidate for speaker of the house,
has engaged rooms 108 and 10.
Robert N. Hardeman, of Jefferson
candidate for speaker of the house.
has engaged room 201.
All of them will be on hand early
next week to open headquarters and
unlimber their siege guns. Mr.. An
derson was in the city today, coming
in from ten days jaunt about the
state in search of votes. He stated
that he would move his family to the
summer home in Cobb county next
week and that he would be on hand
at his headquarters here right along
thereafter until the session opened.
Judge Allen has been here for two
or three days also, and he plans 70
get on the job here next week. 1t is
probable that both Burwell and Harda-
man will not let grass grow around
tEeir premises but will be heard from
next week Nothing has been heard
from Mr. Sheppard but he is also ex-
pected to be around and about look
ing over the situation.
Believe BurWell a Winner.
Whether or not it so turns out in
the show down very large percentage
of tbOca N Ill 81 ~ of
tics believe and openly assert tht
Burwell will be an easy winner for
the speakership, and a great many
look upon that issue as settled right
now Surface indications, at least,
indicate it.
But this senatorial mix-up has guess
ers "buffaloed" to a "fare-ye-well' 20
date Of course both Mr.. Anderson
and Judge Allen tell you with conf
dence that they have it cinched and
will prove it to you, if you happen to
be in their confidence sufficiently, by
checked lists of the next senate.
But the astute observers on the out
! side can't see yet that either man has
q copper-riveted claim on the senate

holding aloof until he gets up here to

HAVE YOU SOMETHING
TO SELF -. -. -. -.

If so, do you tell the public
about it? If you do, how do
you do it?
And what sort of reputation
is back of the merchandise you
are offering?
The answers to these ques-
tons may SPELL success or fail
ure to many a merchant.
From an intimate association
with a wide circle of concerns,
merchandising all the neces-
saries of life, we venture to say:
THE quickest and surest way
to reach the public is through
the columns of a dependable
daily newspaper like The Times
Recorder-one that has high
standing in the community it
serves, and has the confidence
of It's readers.
The most dependable articles
sold today are those to which
the manufacturer is not afraid
to attach his label-that is to
say, his reputation.
Retail merchants are now
joining hands with the manu-
facturer, and the public is thus
doubly guaranteed against in
feriority.
The combination of manu-
facturer and retailer plus good,
clean newspaper advertising,
means success to them both,
with the maximum of satisfac
ton to the purchaser"

Had Document Changed

Palmer said when Senator Lodge
made speech on sugar in July, 1912,
the charts subsequently used in sugar
at a glance" were on the walls of the
senate chamber. Senator Lodge Sc
cured the permission of the senate to
have them printed as a public docu-
ment. Questioned by the members of
the committee, the witness said that
after the charts had been sent to the
government printing offices and proofs
in black and white had been made o.
them he discovered thery were not
suitable for publication. He had sent
them to private printing concern
and had them prepared in fashion he
thought suitable. This, he maintained,
was done with the knowledge of Sen
ator Lodge, and he considered that he
was acting for the senator in the mat
ter.
Members of the committee expressed
surprise that any one in any way
should change something authorized
to be printed by the senate. They de-
veloped that the permission was secur-
ed by Senator Lodge for printing on
July q, and that one of several issues
of Sugar at glance" referred to an
order OF the senate on August 1, in the
same matter. The second order refer
red to data prepared by Truman =.
Palmer, and purported to be signed by
Charles G. Bennett, then secretary of
the senate. Mr. Palmer said he sup
posed that the order had been made
and that he got it in the proofs OF the

UNCLE SAM HELPED
SUGAR MEMS Fight
He Saved Them $4,000 in
Their Postage

Washington, D. c., June 13.-How
the government office and the postof-
fee department helped in the fight
against free sugar through the use of
congressional franks for sending anti
free sugar literature" circulating
throughout the land was brought out
today by the senate lobby investigat-
ors. Truman G. Palmer, Washington
representative of the United States
beet sugar industry, on the stand the
entire day and the object of a sweep
ing cross examination, testified that
more than 100000 copies or argu-
ments in behalf of beet sugar had beea
turned out by the government printing
office, made public documents by order
of congress and had ridden on the
franks of senators and representa-
tives to the ends of the country, post
age free.
Sugar at a glance prepared by
him, he said, had attained circulation
of 100000 copies under the frank OF
Senator Lodge Report of the finance
committee" by the same senator had
beaten the pamphlet 10000 copies.
Franks of Senator Smoot, former SEN
ators Curtis and Dick and the late
Representative Malby, former Repre-
sentative Pickett and Representative
Martin had swelled the total to more
than a million and half.
Saved $4,000 Postage
The printing of some of this number
had been paid for by the beet sugar
people, the witness said, but the free
postage had saved them about $4,000.
Mr.. Palmer developed that sugar at
glance" which he intimated was L
spired by the Federal Sugar Refining
company, and which was an argument
in behalf of free sugar, had also been
printed as a public document and cir
culated under the franking privilege
He did not say nor did the committee
ask why the frank was so used. Mr.
Palmer said that the best men had
spent about 100000 in their campaign
against free sugar since 1902.
About $4,000 had been used since
last November and about $4,000 of
that amount since the beginning Of
the present session of congress. Much
of it had been spent in publicity
work" in printing, salaries, and a
good-sized sum in motion pictures He
said that the beet producers in his as
cociation were assessed about cents
per ton, he thought. The last assess
ment was made in April bringing iii
about $4,000 and the previous one in
| February about $4,000
