nearly half million dollars by Boyce
G. Company, Memphis cotton buyers.
Gov. Brewer has publicly charged
that, through connivance with certain
officials, grades have been switched
and false weights shown on thousands
of bales of cotton grown on the state
convict farms, and purchased by
Boyce & Company from the prison
board of trustees.
1t remains to be seen whether GOV.
Brewer can produce sufficient evil
dence in support of his charge to
justify grand jury indictments, and he
has the Burns Detective Agency at
work, both in this country and at
Liverpool, seeking evidence to sup
port his contention
The Governor positively declines to
make any statement concerning the
testimony he has secured within the
past few weeks. He refused to show
his hand in this phase of the anti
graft crusade during the recent Kinds
county circuit court term because of
his belief that the grand jury of this
county had no legal authority to bring
| indictments against Boyce & Com
pany, all sales of cotton grown on the
convict farms having been consumated
either at Parchman or Clarksdale,
and the jurisdiction is therefore eth
er in Coahoma or Sunflower counties
Information has been received at
the executive office that Boyce &
Company have detectives employed tc
watch Gov Brewers detectives, and d
highly interesting little eat-and-mouse
game is being played prior to the
Clarksdale court term.
All efforts of the Governor to secure
possession of the books of Boyce
Company, or access to the papers
that will show seaboard weights oil
cotton grown on the convict farms
have resulted in failure. However
Gov. Brewer has the upper hand in the
fight having tied up nearly $200O0(
worth of cotton owned by Boyce 6
Company, on storage in New Orleans
and Clarksdale.
1t is quite evident that Gov. Brewer
was sure of his hand, or he would no
have boldly charged in the civil court!
that the Memphis cotton buyers ha(
obtained possession OF this cottor
through connivance and fraud
"If 1 could have found any more
cotton belonging to Boyce & Company
it would have been held up under
writs of attachment, to secure wha
that firm owes the state" declared
the Governor
1t is known furthermore, that the
evidence in the Governors possession
does not consist of mere suspicion. He
has had two of the shrewdest detec
tives of the Burns agency at work or
the penitentiary probing for more thar
six months. and his charges have more
substantial foundation than a mere
suspicion based on the fact thai
Boyce G. Company have bought prach
cally all of the cotton grown on the
delta convict farms during the past
four years.
OF the cotton now being held up or
attachments under Gov. Brewers or
ders, 1928 bales are on storage in New
Orleans, An agreement has been
made for the sale of this cotton, the
proceeds to be placed in New Or
leans bank to await the outcome oil
the litigation.

DECISION EXPECTED
 BEFORE END OF WEEK

Little Rock, July 6.-Both sid. es filed briefs in the election con- test in Supreme court today, af- ter which arguments were made before the court. A decision is expected before the end of the week. There was nothing new ln brief or argument, the pro- ceedings held before Chancel. or Martineau being reviewed, with his restraining order to prevent Secretary of State E. W. Hodges from certifying Judge Geo. w. Hays as the Democratic nominee.
 Headquarters were established today by the State Central Dem ocratic Committee, which will be in charge of A. J. Walls, chair man of the com mittee, and ". c. Hutton, secretary. The com mittee will back it's decision that Geo. w. Hays is the nominee and make a vigorous campaign for his election. Judge Hays return ed from Camden Sunday and spent a good portion of Sunday In confer ence with the commit. teemen, and arranging for cam paign.
 Stephen Brundidge will return to Little Rock today from Searcy and R. F. Millwee, his campaign manager. will come from Claren. oon. Col. Brundidge has never stated whether or not he would make canvass of the state and contest in the election, but friends insist that he will be for sced into such campaign, after making the contestin the courts. They declare that it was friendly judges and clerks over the state, selected by machine politicians, who made it possible for the re- turns to show in favor of Judge Hays, and the judges and clerks for the general election will be selected by the county election commissioners, thus giving Brundidge a show he did not have the first time.
 No matter what the decision of the Supreme court may be, 1t is probably too late 10 have Dem ocrat on the ticket, and this will leave it open for the voters to write in the name of Brundidge or Hays, according to their choice.

A tiny pimp1e spreads to the side or
the face and often covers the cheeks
and bridge of the nose. 1t is very de-
3tructive to the glands of the skin. NO
external treatments will overcome it,
as the cause of lupus is from impurities
in the blood supply. The only known
method of cure is to get the blood sup
ply under the control of S. S. s.. the
famous blood specific. Its action is
quite remarkable and has direct inf1u-
ence upon the network of small blood
vessels and glands in the skin.
From the fact that S. S. 5. is purely
a botanical preparation, it is accepted
by the weakest stomach and has great
tonic influence in all the digestive or
gans. 1t is certainly a wonderful blood
medicine, and is prepared direct from
native materials gathered by the ex-
perts of the famous Swift Laboratory
Not one drop of minerals or drugs is
used in its preparation. Ask for s. S s.
and insist upon having it And if you
desire skillful advice and counsel upon
any matter concerning the blood and
