TRIBUTE TO DANIEL BOONE
PAID AT ELIZABETHTON

Elizabethton, Tenn, Aug. Is. -
From historic point of view Friday
was an important day in Elizabethton
for on that day the Bronze Tablet
marking the Boone Trail from North
Carolina to Kentucky was dedicated
by the Daughters of the Ann ricaa
Revolution.
A rain storm came on just at the
time to dedicate this tablet and the
people were unable to assemble at
the point where the tablet is placed,
and the services were held on the
porch of the Lynnwood Hotel. The
Tablet bears the inscription.

MORE FEDERAL OFFICES
OVER THE PIE COUNTER.

Washington, Aug. 14.-Now that the
house has passed the Moon postofice
measure as to railway pay, which car
ries with it the provision to take as
sistant postmasters from the civil
service, it goes to the senate, where
| it may become a law. The provision
as assistant postmasters, Of which
Representative Moon, of Tennessee, is
the author, reads:
"And it shall be the duty of the
postmaster general to require all ap-
plicants for assistant postmaster in
first and second class postoffices, in
cluding those now in Office who were
carried into the civil service by exc
cutive order, heretofore made, to take
competitive civil service examina-
ton within ninety days, or as soon
thereafter as practicable after the pas
sage of this act, under the civil SER
vice law, rules and regulations, and
the postmaster general shall appoint
all assistant postmasters, and all laws,
rules and regulations in conflict with
this act are hereby repealed"
Already there is wall from the
civil service league, but the house is
determined to stand by the measure,
and demand upon senator's for Offices,
now that they are elected by the peo-
pie instead of by legislators, may bring
about the passage of the bill in the
senate. 1t is stated that of the 2,400
assistant postmasters in the country
to whom this amendment would ap-
ply, nearly all are republicans, placed
under civil service order of former
President Taft without an examina-
ton.

JUDGE WILLIAMS
SHOWN TO HAVE
A MAJORITY OF 1857
The Rreturning Board Gets After
the Election Commissioners
Who Have Not Reported.

Nashville, Tenn, Aug, IA ma
jority of the state returning board,
consisting of Governor Hooper, Secre-
tary Of State Sneed and Attorney-G Gen.
eral Thompson, met this morning at
the state capitol to canvass the re-
turns from each county in the recent
supreme judgeship election. General
Thompson was absent. Ninety-two
counties were gone over, official re-
turns from Cheatham, Crockett, Polk
and Unicoi still being out.
The majority being accorded Judge
Williams in the lection in the ninety
two counties completed is 1905. The
unofficial returns received by them
from the other four counties gives
Williams 452 votes more than Burrow,
and brings Judge Williams total ma
jority up to 1857. 1t is thought that
the figures received from the four
counties are nearly correct, and thus
Judge Williams official majority will
doubtless be found to be about 1857.
The county election officers in
Cheatham, Crockett, Polk and Unicoi
have been telegraphed by the return
ing board to send in the returns at
once, and it is expected that they will
be available when the board reassem-
bles tomorrow morning.
The following is the official count
for supreme Judge:

THE MODERN MAUD.

Charles H. Cheslay in Boston Globe }
Maud Muller on summer day
In hammock whiled away the day.
Beneath her hair, peroxide hue,
Much paint and powder smote the view
She seemed content, with studied pose
One neither limb showed silken hose
The cares of life her mind forsook,
The while she read Chambers book
A cloud of dust whirled down the lane
Young Mortimer duPeyster Wayne.
He stopped his shrieking motor car
With grind Of brake and groan and jar
"Howdy!" with boyish voice he cried,
What say there, Maud, come take a
ride?"
Away they sped, past field and void,
By meadows where Maud raked of old.
And here the truth I must lay bare
That trip Maud hooked a millionaire.
The ancient Maud was much too meek ;
She should have rushed him, so to
speak.
The modern Maud knew loves last
She learned it at boarding school,
Sweet simple maids are out of date
Paint, pose and powder stand for fate.

CHAUNCEY DEPEW BLAMEs
KAISER FOR THE WAR

London, Aug. 13.-Chauncey M. De-
pew, former United States senator,
who has long been an ardent admirer
and personal friend of the kaiser, Sc
verely censured the German. ruler in
an interview:
This war is the crime of all cen
turies," said Mr.. Depew with impress
sive earnestness. "It is a crime of
ambition-the dream of a man who
thinks himself another Napoleon. Ten
million men will die as a result, di-
rectly, of this crime, and for genera
tions Europe will suffer intellectually.
'Tt is almost incrediable to think" !"
continued Mr.. Depew, that one man
could throw the whole world back in
to the sixteenth century. Something
is wrong with the kaiser. Either his
environment is at fault, or there has
been a complete reversal of his men
tai processes.
This war will mean the greatest
impulse for socialism that history re-
cords. 1t will mean an end to all
kings with real power and an end to
all bullying bureaucracies.
1t is recalled that on the 25th ami
versary Of the kaiser's reign, Mr.. De-
pew's speech in honor of the German
monarch attracted worldwide atten-
ton as a model of expression.

INTERVIEW BY
SECRETARY LANE
POINTS ITS UsEF ILLNESS
In Making the People Realize to
a Greater Extent the Value
of its Mineral Resources.

"a direct benefit to the United
States from the European war will be
its effect in making the people of this
country realize to greater extent the
value of its mineral resources" said
Franklin X. Lane, Secretary of the In
terror, in an interview today. 'It is
entirely possible to so utilize these re-
sources and expend our industries that
the label Made in America" will be-
come familiar in our own and foreign
markets"
'Of an Importance second only to
that of the food supply" said Mr.. Lane
is the supply of mineral products
necessary to meet the requirements
OF Twentieth century civilization. One
of the first effects of the war has been
to make us realize the interdepend-
ence of nations in the matter of food
supply. Most of the countries now at
war are dependent upon importation
of foodstuffs, and we have cause for
self-congratulation in the United
States that we are able to feed our
selves. What we possibly have not so
fully realized is that we are nearly as
independent in the possession of es-
sential mineral resources, and that the
interference with manufacturing eaus-
ed by interruption of the flow of inn
portations of many necessary raw ma
terials, may be overcome almost who'll
ly by development of neglected re-
sources in our own country"
s'Do you mean," Mr. Lane was ask
ed, that the United States can make
itself independent of the rest of the
world in its manufactures?
Very largely" asserted the Secre-
tary. "The main difficulties to be
overcome are in the Encouragement of
the distribution system necessary to
establishing this independence. Busi-
ness is established along certain we'll
marked channels, and usually follows
the line of least resistance. 1t has
been easier, and perhaps cheaper, to
import mineral products and materials
from other countries than to go to the
trouble and expense of developing our
own resources of the same nature.

pension of commerce with other coun-

ECHOES FROM ERWIN.
Erwin Happenings Always Interest
Our Readers.

After reading of so many people in
our town who have been cured by
Doan's Kidney Pills, the question
naturally arises: "Is this medicine
equally successful in our neighboring
towns?" The generous statement OF
this Erwin resident leaves no room
for doubt on this point.
B. v. Sublett, Erwin, Tenn, says
For nearly ten years l suffered from
weakness and a constant, dull ache
across the small of my back. The
misery was so great that could hard
ly rest. My limbs became stiff and
sore and the kidney secretions were
too frequent in passage. One day a
neighbor told me how he had been
cured of kidney complaint by Doan's
Kidney Pills and on his advice, l used
them. They gave me more benefit
than all the other remedies l had pre-
viously taken. My former endorse
ment of Doan's Kidney Pills still holds
good"
