WILL ASK COUNTY
TO VOTE TAX LEVY
TO HELP ESTABLISH A PERMA
NENT COUNTY FAIR FOR CAR
TER COUNTY.

A petition will be circulated asking
that vote be taken at the August
election TO determine whether Carter
county wants a county fair and will
instruct the board of county COM
missiOners to make the levy pre-
scribed by law to help pay the eX-
penses of the organization each year
Under the law the county commits
sioners can appropriate $500 for
premiums, and the people can vote to
permit a levy of ne-half of one mill
for the purpose of maintaining d
county fair That levy in this county
under the present assessed valuation
would net about $4,000 and those in
terested figure with tnis coming an.
nually an organization would soon be
free from debt and Carter county
could have one of the best fairs in
the state. With this amount of money
annually grounds could be secured, a
track and suitable buildings erected,
and it is advocated by those most
deeply interested that 1t would b9
worth more to the county as an in
centiye to breed better stock and
raise better farm products than many
times the cost. In all probability the
citizens of the county will be called
upon to vote upon this question at the
August election.

New York, June 15.--There Is one
port in the world where only Amer

LiFE's CHANGES.

Declaring Here is a chance for my 1 hfe'' desperate young man con demned to death hurtled form tAe rear end of moving train and maae at least a temporary escape. The h. cident took place near Little Rock, and the man was being taken to the penitentiary for sale keeping until hs execution next March
 It looked like desperation, but i. was a chance, and he took it, and at least for the hour got away in the darkness
 The first impulse is sort of a hope indulged that the man SO des- perately crowded in life, will benefit by the chance he took
 Bu. there is another story-as there always Is. The young man had d sweetheart, quarrelled with her, killed her. and threw the body in well.
 She never had chance Prom the moment she fell into his murder ous hands. his strength and his mur. derous cunning so favored him that the girl was doomed % death even at the moment his mind was made up.
 Arthur Tillman elected himseu trial judge and executioner ill the case of his sweetheart--yet when the strong arm of the law was thrown about him to demand of him justice that Is necessary to civilization, he considered himself oppressed of the law, and looked for his only "chance" in defeating the ends of the law
 Murder is n terrible thing. And it's terror should carry to the end, for those who engage in it. Some people who commit murder, through mann pulation, despoiling friends, and evil influence, defeat the ends Of justice. but the day is fast passing when this can be done.
 In a community that loves and res poets law there is penalty that must apply and the defeat of justice can only be encountered through the almost cllanceiess chance taken by Tillman, rather than by the methods that have been used in many in- stances in the past

Why America Dug the Panama Canal

Why America Dug the Panama Canal.
Why has America succeeded in building
the Panama canal, wnere France failed? ?
Was 1t because we had more money, bet
ter men or better tools? No, 1t was be-
not make any progress. The French, with
an average force Of 10000 employees, lost
from death during their construction
period 1900 men. We, with an average
force of g. 600 men during about the same
length of time, LAY lost from death 1000.
The French. with an average of 1.6o0
white employees, lost during their con-
struction period from yellow fever 1000
men. We. with an average of 5000 white
employees during the same length of time,
have lost from yellow fever only IS. The
important question, however, is the health
of the American employees. During the
year 1911 we had 10,4S9 American whites
connected with the commission. Their
death-rate from disease was 4.48 rer /. 900.
OF these 10.4S9 Americans, 6.0& were men
and 4,464 women and children. The death
rate from disease among the men was 2. SO
per ZOO. That among the women and chill
dren from the same cause was 6.72 per
1000.
These facts are taken from q recent adj
dress at Johns Hopkins university by Col.
VIM. Gorgas, chief sanitary officer of the
1sthmian Canal commission. Speaking Of
the condition of the Americans now In
the canal zone, Colonel Gorgas says:
ing oneself with regard to health CON
ditions is direct observation of the
American employees. They as a class
are rugged and notwithstanding, Of
good color. and energetic and active
in movement. They look more like the
west than like people who nave lived
in the tropics for four or five wears.
