"Here's Ours,
Where's Yours ~

Passers-by stopped yesterday at the
plant of the Anderson Coca Cola com
pany and gazed with considerable
pleasure on what they saw in the
window of that popular plant. A
large bale of cotton was there and
across it was. a placard reading.
Here's Ours, Where's Yours?" Can't.
r. ]. Ramer. manager of the Ander-
son Ccca-Cola company, yesterday
morning purchased the bale of cotton
for 10 cents per pound and he says
that buying the bale gave him much
pleasure as it did the man from whom
1T was secured. It is a matter to be
regretted that there are not several
hundred more such men in Anderson.

Electric City Sparklets
North Believes
In SOuth's Crops.

Evidently some of the northern con-
Germs doing a big business appreciate
the fact that the South must have
some financial assistance in hadling
the cotton crop. A salesman for the
International Shoe Company was in
Anderson yesterday and while here
he received a letter from his house
saying that they were preparing to
buy 1000 bales Of cotton at 10 cents
per pound and might later increase
that number If 1t became possible.
This represents an outlay of about
$4,000 on the part of the shoe man
ufacturers but goes to show that the
people Of the north are willing to
help and also that IT, =. know full we'll
cotton will eventually go up in price.

Grain Elevator
Very Interesting.

Since the announcement was pub
lished few days ago that Anderson
may build a grain elevator here with
in the near future, the chamber OF
commerce has had hundreds OF ques-
tions to aLawer in regard to an cleva-
tor. Secretary Whaley yesterday re-
ceived number Of letters from peo-
pie manufacturing machinery for
these elevators and all of them offered
their services in helping the Anderson
undertaking to start up business. While
nothing definite has been accomplish

In Anderson taking such step.

Long Search
For Children,

The two little children of Mr.. and
Mrs. V. M. Barnes, after being sent
TO Sunday school at st. Johns Meth
odist church last Sunday morning, dis
appeared. When the hour arrived for
the children TO return and they could
not be located, a search was instituted
and at 4:30 O'Clock the Barnes chill
dren, together with two other young
sters. were located at the rear of ] i.
H. Hutchinson's home in North An
derson. 1t is presumed that the par
.ty proved so congcnial that the child
rem did not take note of fhe passage
of time but their parents were badly
worried before the "runaways" were
found.

Police Say
Work is Hard.

UIICP DtIy
Work is Hard.
The traffic policemen in Anderson,
or rather the officers stationed at
Earle and Whitner streets to carry out
the duties Of traffic cop, say that
they are having hard work in teach
ing the people of the city to drive and
ride to the right. The people in An
derson have been accustomed to driv-
ing on either side Of the street or in
the middle for that matter, for such
a length OF time that 1t is hard for
them to grow accustomed to the
change. However, the difference Is
quite noticeable. there being much
less congestion Of traffic along Main
street.

Costs Money
Now TO Walk.

Keeping astride with everything
else to eat and wear, shoe salesmen
spending yesterday in Anderson said
that shoe prices had jumped and
jumped again since the war started in
the foreign countries. The price is
now 10, Is and 20 cents per pair more
than few weeks ago and indications
are that they w:ll continue to advance.
The explanation of this lies in the fact
that 20 per cent Of the uppers on
shoes come from Russia and natur-
ally the supply has been appreciably
curiailed within the last few weeks

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Denial was
made at the White House that the
movement Of artillery and cavalry at
Naco, Ariz., Indicated amy change in

ton. 1t was stated that the movement
is in the nature Of precautionary step.
The White House issued the follow
ing statement:
1T has been thought wise to

the reckless carelessness OF the two con
tending factions across the border in
failing to control the direction Of their

contemplated

on tie scene say that Governor Maytor-
cna, the Villa commander, is preparing
to attack General Hill, Carranm's rep
rcsentativc in force almost Immediately
Such an attack, under present condi-
tions would mean that the American
town Of Naco would be badly riddled
and that probably many additional
Americans would be killed. Ii is believed
here that when General Bliss reaches
the scene he will warn both combatants
that they must not fire across the Dor.

be in a position 70 rigidly enforce this

and a wounded since the Maytorcna-
Hill forces clashed for the first time.
Of these, 20 are Americans and liz OF
them are members OF the American cav

il would not be the first time this
method has been resorted to by them in
Delaware with the marshalship as the
prize. During the second administration
Of President Cleveland the Democrats
tnmped up charges against Marshal
Henry G. Mahaiiy, Republican. now de-
ceased, and threw him from the Office
TO make way Tor Hewson Lannan, after
Mr.. Mahaify had served three years OF
his term. Marshal Lannan and Marshal
Charles Newlin have been the only Dem
ocrats to hold the office of United
States marshal in go years, which may
add to the zest with which they con
template gobbling up that office.
Not only are the Democratic Office
seeking phantoms tip-toeing toward the
office Of marshal, but they also have
fastened their gaze upon the two dep
uty marshalships, now held by Ralph l.
Finn and John w. Mitchell, Republi-
cans. These Offices were in civil service
until a few months ago, when they
were taken out Of the classified list by
the Democratic Congress. The salary OF
United States marshal is $1,000 year
and OF the deputies $1,000 year.

TO have his former private secretary
Major Holcomb, appointed to the mar
shalship viii not be pleasing to some OF
the other Democratic aspirants, par
ticularly Joseph Schunder and Martin +.
Fairy, both Of whom are making a
warm canvass for the place, notwith-
standing that Mr.. Townsend's term is
supposed to expire in April, 1916. Pos
sibly friends of the men who desire the
office may have had an intimation that
Marshal Townsend would be elected
from it, At any rate the contest be-
tween Schunder and Fairy has waxed
so keen that Senator Salisbury has
been quoted as saying that the "fight
between Fairy and Schmder is so hot
it has become embarrassing to me-"
This is taken by some to add color
to the suspicion that Senator Salisbury
may center on Major Holcomb for fhe

While it has been learned that Sena-
tor Salisbury has not taken up the
question directly with Marshal Town
send, he has communicated with per-
sons close to the United States mar
shal and influential with him to try
to get the marshal to surrender the
Office
II has been learned that the Sena-
tor had a conversation with man
close to Marshal Townsend. in which
he suggested that the marshal resign
the Office. The Senator also wrote a
letter to a relative Of Marshal Town
send in which he counseled that the
marshal resign, as the Democrats de-
sired the office Of marshal and we're
demanding it.
Senator Saulsbury's letter, it is
said, attempted to argue that the Of
fee really belonged to the Democrats,
counting back sixteen years or more.
and also setting forth that the ap-
pointment of Marshal Townsend real
ly was to fill out an uncxpired term
There was an intimation that unless
Marshal Townsend should give up the
Office voluntarily he might be ousted
from it,
It is said the general contents Of
this letter we're conveyed to Marshal
Townsend, who asserted that he would
not resign He was appointed April
IL, 1911. and his commission from
President Taft reads that the appoint
ment is for a term of four years,
commencing with the date hereof
(April II, 1922, subject to conditions

The conditions prescribed by law"
are now being looked up by friends
of Mr.. Townsend, to determine just
what they are and whether they inn
pair the four-year appointment. There
is a belief that if Marshal Townsend
declines to resign the Democrats will
trump up charges against him, and
the Democratic machinery at Wash
ington will be used to oust him from
office to make way for the office-hun-
cry Democrats.
Should Marshal Townsend be ousted
