A goodly number of our editors have
landed, of course, but 1t is singular
that two Of them should be held in
such intolerable suspense, and from
the same cause. Two editors Of Dem
ocratic newspapers-Oliver at Reds
Vile, and Swami at Marshall-have
been blocked becuse it is said that
they have abused Democrats more
tina nthe party law allowed. Mr..
Swami is said to have welded a high
ly facile pen IN dealing with Messrs.
Simmon sand Craig, the sweeping al
legation being laid with elaboration
at the door of the former that he is
not a Democrat.
Senator Simmons, following the
tariff rush. is going to spend the re-
Taainder of the heated spell in perus-
ing the Swami and Oliver newspapers
III the effort to determine whether
these gentlemen have put themselves
outside the pale. We do not know
SO much about the Oliver efforts, but
we have an idea the Senator is going
to be we'll entertained when he starts
through the files of the Swami papers.
Daily News.
Mr.. Swami disposed of his newspa-
per property something like two
years ago and has since been engaged
in private business. II he ever made
unkind references to either Senator
Simmons, or Governor Craig in his
PAPER, they escaped the attention of
its readers in this section. But when
a fellow gets into politics. the oppo-
sition manages to rake-up" some
thing against him and MI. Swami is
no exception to the rule.

Editor Western Carolina Democrat.
Dear Sir:I saw in your last issue an
article signed "A Methodist in which
/ was very much interested. / hastily
agree with our friend, it is time that
each church and individual was lend
ing a helping hand to the Hospital.
If a few, a very few, have done so
much for it, what could we not do if
every one did his or her part. If
every tax payer in the county would
give the small amount of 25 cents to
the Hospital what a material help it
would be. Have you ever stopped to
think that this is Christ's work! Did
he not say. in as much as We do it
unto the least of these my brethren
you do it unto me?" Is not caring for
the ?sick and suffering His work
There is not a man, woman or child in
Henderson county who would think Is
cents much to spend for their pleas
ure. Why can not they make it a
real pleasure by giving it where it
would help some one worse off than
themselves? There is not a person in
the town or county who would not
deem it a great honor to do the least
service for an earthly king! How
Infinitely greater the honor and privi-
lege of doing it for the King of Kings?
Why can not each of the churches in
terest themselves in a ward? IF we
can not furnish the entire ward, we
can each furnish one or more beds in
the ward-and just think what a help
that would be. Hoping the time is not
far distant when each church and in
dividuaI will deem it a pleasure and a
great privilege to do-not as little as
they can-but as MUCH for so good
a cause.

The exceedingly hot weather recent
ly in this section has been unusual
and it is little wonder that the influx
of tourists has rapidly increased with
each passing day. The entire noun
tain country is 'talive with visitors"
President Wilson's lobby probe has
placed the Democratic Senators on
their mettle. Watch real Democrats
"Etand pat" on the tariff bill when a
vote is reached. There is little doubt
about the result, since the Mulhall
charges we're made public.

Governor Craig is back in his Office
after spending several weeks vacation

An ediot recently issued by Bishop
Dyrne, of the diocese of Nashville,
forever bars members Of the Catholic
Church from vulgar figures of the new
dances. The Bishop makes it plain
that his Church will not tolerate as
members those who engage in the
turkey trotn the tango" or the
bunny hug" In his estimate of-these
suggestive performances, Bishop
Byrne is by no means alone.

Sunday. He will speak under the
auspices of the Hendersonville Chau-

Those mountain folks are just be-
ginning to realize what assets theor
peaks and climate and soil are. Every
tourist is worth money from q COM

In securing the position of Assistant
District Attorney for Hon. Clyde r.
Hcey, of Shelby, Senator Overman
has rewarded one of his most loyal
and valuable friends. Mr.. Hoey, as
a member of the General Assembly
Of 1908, was active in his support of
II present junior senator during the
long fight which eliminated in the
election of Overman over Messrs.
Locke Craig and Cyrus B. Watson.
Mr.. Hoey will enter upon his duties
right away. He is a capable, ener-
getic lawyer Of acknowledged ability
and large experience, and win prove
himself worthy of the confidence re-
posed in him by the Wilson adminis-
tration.

a national law designed to prohibit

GEORGIA CITIES
ARE WAKING UP
TO IMPROVEMENT
BOARDS OF TRADE ORGANIZED
Several Live Towns Getting
Busy Now

Atlanta, March 3.-Many of the
smaller cities of Georgia are waking
up. They have seen what cooperation
has accomplished in the larger cities
of the state and in some few of the
smaller ones which have taken holl
of the building up problem. AS a re-
suit of this observation the business
men of Madison got together the other
day and organized board of trade
Several thousand dollars were suo-
scribed to be used as a maintenance
fund and for advertising purposes AMI
the Madison people determined to go
right after new residents wherever
they could get the right kind and build
up the town.
La Grange, in Troup county, as only
recently done the same thing. La
Grange is advertising in the newspa-
pers and is reaching out strongly for
new business. As a result of the ac.
tivity in La Grange the neighboring
towns of West Point and HogansviIe
"have got the bug" and there is nov
talk OF organizing all three of them
for their mutual good and that of the
county
Albany is another city which has
just recently manifested desire to
stretch out Albany has krown during
the last fey years anyway, but things
were not moving fast enough to satisfy
number of the leading business men
there, SO they got together short
time ago, reorganized their board Of
trade and appropriated $4,000 for I
campaign.
Other instances of orzanized and CO.
operative effort on the part of Georgia
cities are coming to the front ever"
few days and the indications are it
will not be long before every commun-
ity in the state is making long and
strong pull for its full share Of new
business and new residents.

FRAZIER NOW
IN LOCAL JAIL

Found Guilty on the First
Attachment

Convicted on the charge of contempt
of the Sumter county superior court,
H. D. Frazier is now in Jail here 20

adjudged guilty on the first attachment
and fine of twenty days in prison,
5000 and costs was imposed upon him

sideration the second attachment, and
his Judgment in this matter will be
announced later.
The first attachment for contempt
was issued February "a, while the Sec
ond bears the date of March 2, last
Sunday. In each instance the essence
of contempt as charged was in the op-
Grafton of his store just west of the
city by Frazier, after an injunction had
been granted by the court for the clos
ing up of the place as a public nuis-
ance.
Immediately after the hearing yes
terday afternoon, which was lengthy
and exhaustive, Frazier was placed il
the county Jail where he is now held.
His place of business west of the
city has been locked up and is held
under the surveillance of the county
authorities. There was no alternative
fine for Frazier, so he was compelled
to go to Jail yesterday.

SCHEDULE OF
The LEAGUE
NOW COMPLETE
SUBJECT TO RATIFICATION
Copy Of Schedule Was Re-
CGiVGd Here Yesterday

schedule of the ninety games 10
be played in the Empire State league
was received here yesterday by Secre-
tary H. E. Allen, of the local baseball
club. The schedule has been made
out, and is now subject to ratification
by the various clubs that compose the
league.
AS it is now arranged the schedule
calls for the opening of the season by
the local club in Cordele on May l, 2, =
In return for the teams being away
at the opening of the league season,
Americus will close the season ON its
home grounds. The schedule begins
May l and extends through a ninety :
day season.
Mr. Allen said yesterday that so far
as the management of the local club Is
concerned the schedule is satisfactory.
The schedule must be ratified by all
the clubs that are members of the
league before it may be adopted. other
clubs may object to the schedule as
arranged, though it is believed that
there will be very little change made
in order to make it acceptable to all
the clubs.
AS regards the local ball park the
management of the local club feels
sure now that satisfactory arrange
ments can be made. Such arrange
ments are tentative so far, but it is
believed that for this year at any rate
the ball park may be secured on favor

FRIEDMAN CURE HAS
AROUSED INTEREST here

Considerable interest has been
aroused here by the various announce.
ments that have been made relative to
the arrival in this country of Dr.
Frederick Friedman, the noted Ger
man bacteriologist, who has come to
the United States to demonstrate his
cure for tuberculosis.
Yesterday several inquiries were re,
ceived at The Times Recorder office
from those interested in knowing the
New York address of DR.. friedman.
This was given yesterday to inquirers
by telephone, and it is printed herewith
for the information of others who may
wish to know. DR.. Friedman is STAY
ing temporarily at the Waldorf-Atto-
ria hotel in New York. Letters ad-
dressed to him there should reach him
With the large number of persons
who have already made application to
the clinics to be conducted by Dr..
Friedman in New York, in number
5000 according to press dispatches, it
is doubtful if correspondence on the
part of applicants outside of New York
will receive attention. No harm TO
try, however, as some are doing.

SPECIAL ELECTIONS ARE
TO Be HELD HERE TODAY
Elections Will Decide Wh0 is to Be the Next Sheriff Of
Sumter County and Whether the County Will Issue
100000 Of Bonds for Roads and CulVCrtS

Indications last night pointed to-
ward most favorable weather condi-
tions for the conduct of the two spec
ial elections that are to be held IN
Sumter county today, one for the selec-
ton of a sheriff and the other for de-
termining whether Sumter county VIII
issue bonds for road and culvert i'm
provement
AS the registration is unusually
large, it is believed that the interest
that has been aroused in the two cleo
tions to be held together with the fav-
,orable conditions of weather that will!
in all probability prevail will serve to
bring out a large percentage of the
voters who have registered. Though
the two elections are separate in that
a separate ballot is to be voted for
each, the interest in both elections is
strong and widespread throughout the
county
The polls at the local voting precinct
at the county courthouse will be open
ed at 7 o'clock this morning, as will
the precincts throughout the county.
The polls here will remain open until
6 o'clock this evening, however, While
the out of town precincts will close at
3 o'clock. This will allow sufficient
time for the polling of the large vote
that is expected.
So great has been the interest mani
tested in the bond issue throughout the
county that it is believed it will be
carried by a good margin of votes
Two-thirds of the registered voters are
required to ratify the bond issue. The
interest in the issuance of bonds how.
ever, has been general, and it is believ
ed that this favorable sentiment will
be registered today in the casting o.
good majority of votes for that great
