Since Governor Slaton Is under
stood to be determined not to be
hurried into taking position in the
forthcoming Senatorial fights until he
gets good and ready-that being in
terpreted generally to mean not ear
lier than the meeting Of the state
Democratic Executive Committee
the greatest interest in State politics
has been Centpred in the committee.
SO far Chairman Harris has not
stated when he VIII call the commit
tee together, but already there is be-
ing manifested some anxiety to hear
from him in this matter.
Senator Bacon's lamented death has
made it necessary for the committee
to get together and arrange for the
primaries earlier. perhaps, than would
have been the case had he not passed
away at the time he did.
1t is practically impossible for the
lines to be drawn rigidly and to stay
put until after the committee has as
sembled and made known its pur-
poses as to the kind of primary to be
ordered county unit or plurality
and the time and detailed rules of the
same.
1t is assumed generally. however.
that Chairman Harris will call the
committee together within the next
two or three weells-Certainly not
later than April !.
Up to the time of Senator Bacon's
death, Chairman Harris had given
himself scant concern in this matter,
II having been the general impress
sion then that 1914 was to be much
tanner" year politically than now
seems likely.
Mr.. Harris is understood to have
the matter of calling the committee
together under earnest consideration
and is trying to arrive at an intelli-
gent conclusion with respect to the
same.
He is said to be very DESTROYS Of
meeting the views of a majority of
the committee in this matter, and 10
that end is looking into the situa-
ton carefully
At the same time the desire to
hear from the committee apparently
| is growing daily in Georgia.
A well known Georgian threw a
rather significant sidelight on Geor-
| gia politics to-day. saying;
"The friends Of Ex-senator ]. II.
| Felker, of Monroe. are urging him to
announce for Governor in the event
| that Governor Slaton should enter the
/ race for United States Senator
against senator Smith.
"Mr. Felker is the author of the
blind tiger nuisance act; the United
States license presumptive act; the
| change OF the venue bill regarding
| lynch law; the venue bill regarding
electric light companies; the bill 70
| increase the borrowing power of the
! Governor so that the school teachers
could be paid. and many other laws of
| Importance to the country
1T has been stated that j. Randolph
| Anderson, President of the Senate,
will be in the race for Governor in
| the event that Governor Slaton is not
a candidate again, and friends of Mr.
Felker, in different parts of the State
will urge him to make the race for
Governor on opposite lines to those
represented by Mr. Anderson.
However, there also are a great
many friends of Mr.. Anderson who
are friendly to Mr. F'elkeT, and they
are insisting that the latter should
make the race for Attorney General
OF Georgia, and not for Governor, the

BARLOW JUSTICE

HURLED HIGH BY C4TAPULT
Sumter Man SuStaiDS Serious
Injuries

Barlow Justice, a we'll known resi-
dent of Sumter county, living upon his
farm north of Americas, was badly in
jured yesterday while cutting a tree
that had been blown across the road
way near his home. Mr.. Justice, It
seems, stood upon the postrate tree
while cutting it in two, and as the
heavy top was thus released the part
next the imbedded root, and upon
which he was standing, shot upward
almost to perpendicular. AS though
fired from a catapault, Mr. Justice
scared upward to a height of twenty
feet, and in falling to earth again both
arms were broken. In this condition
he made his way three miles to his
home. DR.. w. S. Prather responded
to Mr. Justices summons, reset the
broken bones and attended to the other
painful injuries sustained.

AMERICUS SHIPS
JAPANESE LARGE
COTTON CARGOES
GOES DIRECT TO The Orient
Shipments During Three
Weeks Worth $4,000

Americas warehousemen have long
considered Japan one of their best
customers in the purchase of the finer
grades of cotton, and this opinion IS
accentuated in the fact that during the
past three weeks nineteen hundred
bales Sumter county cotton have been
shipped direct from the Americas com
press to the tight little isle in the
orient, the greater portion of it going
to Yokohama and Kobe, two large
manufacturing cities.
This cotton is worth, at current
prices, nearly $125,000; a neat sum for
Japan to pay Americas warehousemen
for a portion of the crop grown in
Sumter county.
Sumter county has an established
reputation in the manufacturing mart
of the world, and large shipments are
made from Americas to mills in Ger
many, where preference is given ii be-
cause Of it's fine texture. Only a day
or two ago several hundred bales were
shipped from Americas direct to SAX
ony All of this was cotton of high
grade, to be used in the manufacture
of the finer fabrics, principally for eX-
port trade:
shipment of several hundred bales
of linters was made from Americas
this week to the mills in the north,
this being the cheapest grade of cotton
handled and used for the manufacture
of ordinary goods.
The cotton purchased for export to
Japan wos sold to the Japanese Trad
ing Co., with headquarters at Fort
Worth. The 1900 bales were sent by
rail to Savannah and there loaded up
or a British tramp steamer for the
long trip of nearly $4,000 miles to ports
il the orient.

COMMISSION TO
DISPENSE The PIE
URGED BY SENATOR WORKS
WOULD RELIEVE PRESIDENT
AND CONGRESSMAN FROM THE
TASK

Washington, d. c., Jan. Ex-senator
Works, of California, today urged up
on the senate his bill to provide for
a commission appointed by the presi-
dent to receive and pass upon all ap-
plications and recommendations for
appointment to federal Offices The
measure would forbid members of
to recommend OF aid in OBJ
tanning positions.
Senator Works explained that his
bill was intended to relieve the presi-
dent and members of congress from
the burdens of recommending and
the thousands of officers
throughout the country; to bring
about the appointment of more com
petent men and women, and to re-
lieve the public service, as far as
possible from the "odium of the pres
ent pernicious system of patronage"
President Wilson, at the beginning
of his administration, he said, had
felt the necessity for some help such
as this bill would afford, but his effort
to transfer to his heads of depar =
ments the duty of making appoint
ments had proved failure.
