as cowardly and says he feels i. his
bounden duty to resign from the
Outlook in order that he may be
free to fight the present Democratic
administration for the manner in
which it has handled our inter
national affairs.
Trust legislation, the Fedeia Re-
serve Act and the Underwood-Sim-
mons tariff law are dealt with from
every viewpoint in more than one
chapter, each of which should be
read by all who are seeking in
formation on these important sub
jects.
A powerful appeal to reason is the
chapter setting forth what the Dem
ocratic Congress has done toward
contributing to the success of the
Wilson administration. The Presi-
dent and Congress are described as
the big Team. /" Mr.. Wilson him.
self has said time again that with
out the support Of Congress he
could have accomplished little.
This chapter shows that not only
was the support given, but that
there was cooperation of a kind
practically unprecedented in the
history of this country.

SOME HAIL STORM

Some excitable or careless person
has sent TO the Tampa Tribune dis
patch containing the following high
~ exaggerated statements regard
ing Thursdays storm:
The terrific hail storm was ac-
companied by furious wind, which
uprooted oak, hickory and magnolia
trees with trunks as big around as
whisky barrels, and hurled them
through the air like chaff for a dis
lance of fifty yards or more.
The hail stones not only pelted thru
the roofs Of houses, but in some in
stances bored their way through the
sides like cannon balls in a lombard
ment. The hailstones, or at least
many Of them, were not spherical as
in ordinary cases, but were in all
sorts of shapes, ragged and jagged,
and seem to have frozen together, so
to speak, before hitting the ground,
and fell in blocks. In low places
the ground was covered to a depth
of three feet, and twenty-four hours
after the catastrophe the ground was
still covered over twelve inches
thick

its patrons will regret to no more

formed the habit OF going to the
store too strongly TO break it off.

Reports of Thursdays Storm in
Northern Marion are Reckless
and Ridiculous

Some o. the reports o. the storm
Of Thursday afternoon are ridiculous
N the extreme. and sent out into
other parts Of the state and the
country in general are likely TO do
this section harm.
The Star gave conservative and
accurate reports OF the damage in its
issues Of yesterday and the day be-
fore, most Of them by one OF its own
people. who passed thru the terri
tory swept by the storm a short time
after.
The hail and wind were fierce and
did a great deal of damage, but none
that cannot be soon repaired. The
greatest harm done was to growing
crops, which were beaten to pieces
by the hail 1t is too late 10 replant
some OF these crops; otherwise, all
the harm done can be repaired in a
few weeks.
The wind did not destroy any sub
stantial buildings nor blow down any
but the weaker trees. The hail
stones were OF ordinary size. They
didn't kill horses and cows, nor even
chickens, and except in drifts they
were not more than two inches deep.
And they were all gone an hour aft
er the storm.
With the storm came a good rain,
that spread all over the county, and
did probably enough good TO crops
in general to make up for the harm
in the track of the hurricane.

MR.. ADoLPH oCHs, most
useful servant Of the Wall

ooeeO tl1eIeStS, runs 1Ory
paper In New York, whose chief end in
life seems to be to uphold all the atrocities of
Special Privilege and all of the monstrous
demands of Big Money.
The name Of the paper is, The Times; and.
like its owner, it is an OK that knows its mas
ter's crib.
Some years ago, Mr.. Brisbane, the great
Hearst editor of all the great Hearst news
papers, and author of the great book known
as "The Hearst Editorials,'' took occasion to
jump upon the worthy Adolph Ochs, and to
say things about him and his paper that were
fierce enough to make the windows rattle.
In fact, the windows did rattle for the
indignant Ochs took his head out of his mas
ters crib long enough to file damage suit
against the great Hearst paper
The case had not been on file more than a
day or so, ere the redoubtable Brisbane came
right back at the worthy Ochs, in another
editorial, immensely more caustic. merciless.
scathing, faggellative and actionable than it's
predecessor.
Brisbane commenced this second attack bv
saying, In effect, "Ochs has brought damage
suit against us because we told the truth on
him we will now tell some more truth on him.
and thus give him the chance to file another
damage suit"
But no second suit was filed; and the first
one came to nothing.

Some years ago, Ulm soured on my stomach,

laughed and said, ''No, it's not that. What
Ulm very much regrets is, that I do under
stand him."
So, when I learned by private grapevine
from Atlanta that Ulm had gone before the
State Democratic Committee at it's session
last week, and had made strenuous effort to
abolish our County Unit pzaa IN the
approaching Senatorial election, was not
surprised.
