tee before the Democratic pri-

Dear readers of the Herald:
| will write a few lines in re-
gard to the Hawaiian Islands.
This is my second letter to the
Herald and some of the people
did not understand whether
was from Tennessee or not. (
was born and raised In Tennes-
ste and have only been gone
from there nine monthsA had
been wanting to join the army
quite a while and last January
| bid my friends goodbye and
left home for Jefferson Bar
racks, and was only there one
month when they sent me here,
where / will be stationed for
quite while. | guess you are
getting worn out on this SUBJ
ject, so | will change it and tell
you something about these is
lands. | have just got back
from Hawaii island, that is the
volcano island. Eighty-two of
the First infantry went there
on a pleasure trip to see the
volcano. 1t was certainly
worth the money to see it. For
the benefit of those who never
saw a volcano ! uIil describe it.
1t was not in action when we
were there, but there was quite
a crowd of tourists there when
we got there. We went to the
Volcano Hotel, which is about
three miles fro mthe crater.
The lava bed runs up to about
a quarter of a mile of the hotel.
You could see the crater from
there. The smoke was some
thing terrible. 1t looked more
like a forest fire than anything
else. Then there was smoke
coming out of the ground in
different places inside of three
miles of the crater. We left the
hotel and walked to the crater,
across the lava bed, but did not
stay long there, you could not
stand it for the sulphur smell
would chase you away.

Resigns as Chairman

hCSiS HIS as OHdlT Hudu
To the Democratic Executive
Committee for Putnam Coun-
ty, assembled in executive
session at Cookev1lIe, Tenn,
on this date for the purpose
of transacting such business
as may properly come before
you:
Having served you in the ca
pacity of chairman of the DEM
ocratic party for more than two
whole years and having used
my best endeavors to guide the
Democratic party to success,
and as to how we'll | have sue
ceeded as such, the past and the
present will show.
1t has been my pleasure to
serve the Democratic party as
a citizen, as an officer,as a mem
ber of it's executive committee
and as it's chairman during my
past life, but now, gentlemen of
the committee, | have become a
candidate for the Office of cir
cult court clerk for your county
and deeming it unwise for me
to be at the helm of the party
as it's chairman, with thanks to
the party and my many friends
for past favors, IAthink l owe it
to myself and to the great party
that | represent that / tender
to you here and now my resig-
nation as your chairman, and
that l cease to be the recogniz-
ed organized head of my party.
| hope that the party through
this committee as it's represen-
tatives will receive this, my res
ignation, in the manner and
spirit in which it is intended,
that is to say, | fully appreciate
the hOnOrs heretofore bestowed
upon me at the hands of the
Democratic party, with full ap-
probation of the support that l
have always received at the
hands of the other parties.
1t has alwaws been under
stood, at least by myself, that
am a Democrat, and have never
sought favors as an official as
being other than a Democrat,
but have never lost sight of the
fact that / have received sup
port from friends who differ
from me politically, and / want
it understood that l fully appre-
ciate their support.
l fully realize that it is not
good taste for me to be the
chairman of the party at whose
hands ! am seeking a nomina-
tion to the Office to which / as
pire, and having full confidence
that / will receive all that is
just and due me at the hands Of
my party, am content to cast
my lot and leave my fate in the
hands of the Democratic party.
Gentlemen, it is generally
known that / am physically un-
able to make a close canvass of
this county, and ! trust that my
qualifications, my past record
and my entire life as citizen,
as an official and as Democrat
will be taken into considera-
ton by the Democratic voters
when they go to the polls on the
18th day of November, 1913, to
select their nominees for the
various county offices.

THREE CATCHERS HERE

Pitchers Dent, Drohan, Bickers, Aus
tin, Joe Engel, and Buck Barton will
report to Manager Griffith the middle OF
next month to get in two weeks on
light work at the Y. NJ. C. A. gymna-
sium, with Mike Martin looking on. Man.
ager Griffith announced last night that
he would order the youngsters to re-
port here not later than February il
and that AIva Williams would also be
on hand.
Williams has gained a little weight
since last fall and writes that the ex-
ira work will put him in shape to get
off to a flying start at Charlottesville.
The husky clouter is confident of hav-
ing another big season, and only asks
TO be allowed to catch a few more
games Alva's hitting toward the close
of the past campaign was a pleasing
feature of the Nationals play, and it is
a safe bet that the former Red SoX will
work in few more games this season.
Austin is the Wesleyan College wonder,
and from all reports should be able to
put up game fight for a regular berth.
Barton and Engel are the two local boys,
and Boehling was with the team last
season. Drohan and Bickers are un-
knowns and will be watched closely by
Manager Griffith during the preliminary
practice.
