What Does w. +,

in rivers, creeks and harbois
was 48,O00.000. when it should
have been $4,000. 100000, and the
statement should be so modified
In his speeches he stands Ia
cutting off waste like this, af
for spending the money on post
Roads under wise supervision
and skillfull construction. He
stands against taxing the people
as a whole for the benefit of the
few rich shipowners who use the
Panama Canal, and would not

from his opponent who voted
against President Wilson's policy
and tried to fasten the burden of
the maintenance of the canal on
all the people while the few rich
ship owners engaged in the
coastwise trade used it free.
His speeches are certainly ap-
proved by those who hear them.
The Chester Semi-Weekly
News says of his speech in
Chester July 25th:
This left the floor entirely to
the Cheraw candidate, w. F.
Stevenson. who was given a
tremendous ovation. The crowd
certainly looked like it was for
him as he was followed closely
throughout his speech was over
an hour, and was vociferously
applauded."
And the same paper said edi-
torlally on July 2Sth:
wv. F. Stevenson, candidate
for Congress from this District,
made an impressive speech in
the Court House last Saturday.
Mr.. Stevenson is a man of un-
usual ability and has had great
deal of legislative experience and
the voters of the fifth district
have the opportunity to elect a
man to represent them in Con
gress who is altogether feaGlaa
when it comes to doing aud
working for those things that
make for the best interests of tie
people generally. Mr.. Steven
son. if elected, will represent
his district impartially with
honor to himself and satisfaction
to his constituents. He is con-
sldered one of the strongest law
eyers in the State and his broad
legal training more thoroughly
equips him to confront the great
public questions that come up in
the National Congress.

FIRST LADY Of THE
LAND LITTLE REBEL

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 15.-Now that
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson has been laid
to rest a pretty little story of her re
gard for the South and it's heroes has
come to light, in a letter from William
]. Harris, of Georgia, director of the
federal census. In writing a friend
and commenting upon Mrs. Wilson S
Gcath, Mr. Harris said:
Il do not think 1t has ever been
published that on Memorial Day. this
year and last, Mrs. Wilson and the
President made special visits to lay a
wreath upon the grave of General
Joseph Wheeler, the famous COnfed'
crate leader"

Vote For Him

He stands for justice to he south: .,
He IS against Federal Judges holding office
for life -,. H.
He advocates better and cheaper credits for
farmers. =,
in building good roads.
He is opposed to the Northern Pension
Fraud and against negro holding any, office,
He advocates legislation clearly defining the
poonaoe statutes SO that the Southern Farmers
will not be subject to Federal prosecutions when
thew seek to enforce their rights against shiftless
negro farm labor.
Remember he led the fight to abolish Con-
vict leasing and fathered the bill to place Con.
victs on the public roads, dealing death blow
to convict competition with Free Labor. He has
left behind him on the statute books the record
of constructive statesman and an honest cour-
ageous man of great capacity, and as Attorney
General he established precedent by refusing
to accept special fees for work performed for the

ALFRED NEWELL NAILS
CAMPAIGN CANARD OF
NEWT MORRIS

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 15.-The last-mo-
ment canard framed up by Newt Nor
ris in the aid of Thomas w. Hardwick
has effectively been exploded by Alfred
&c. Newell, chairman of the John NJ.
Slaton campaign committee. 1t will be
remembered that Morris dragged the
name of Mrs. Slaton into a charge that
Slaton had not fully returned their
taxes and an effort was made by show
ing incomplete figures to establish this
Mr. Newell answers the latest Nor
ris attack thus:
Through his co-consirator, N. A.
Morris, Thomas w. Hardwick has
again violated all decencies in his
charge of perjury as to the personal
tax returns of Governor and Mrs. Sla-
ton.
Responsibility for this dastardly
eleventh-hour attack rests directly up
on Hardwick.
Before they were so desperately
driven he knew of it's insidious and
surreptitious dissemination. He stood
for it when this Morris formerly for
Fielder, now for Hardwick), introduced
him at Alpharetta. He countenanced
it's announcement from the same plat
form at Cummings. But now he is
making a laundering effort to disavow
it. He sees the storm coming and
wants to hide"
Mr.. Newell then publishes letters
from the tax receiver and tax collector
to show positively that the amount of
tax returned by Mrs. Slaton for 1914
on personal property was $4,000 The
amount of personal tax collected from
her for 1913 was $154.24 on an assess
ment of 81, 425.
Mr. Newell showed that the Stations
do pay personal taxes, that in spite of
his $4,000 aggregate salary as a con-
gresham Hardwick paid only his one
dollar poll tax and is therefore either
holding out something Or is not a
freeholder, is not entitled to qualify as
an elector in the very election in which
he is running for the United States
Senate.
Southern women must not be
brought in to prop the lettering cam
paign of any candidate" says Mr.. New
ell, in conclusion.

A definite relation between the
amount of humus, or vegetable mat
ter in the soil, and its erop-produc-
ing power as shown by yields of corn.
is given in figures just issued by the
department of agriculture. The de-
partment therefore advocates the
use of various methods to introduce
the required humus into the soil.
Experts of the forest service state
that the soils of the whole country
and particularly of the south. have
lost and are losing immense amounts
of this source of soil fertility through
forest fires which apparently do little
immediate damage but rob the soil
of accumulations of humus. In
many parts of the south, land is be-
ing cleared for farming, and where
such forest land has not been burned
there is a large percentage of veget-
able matter. which provides consid-
cradle fertility, and a good texture.
Moreover this soil has greater
capacity to absorb and retain mois-
ture, and thus is less likely to be
washed and quilted under heavy
rains. For these reasons, leaving out
of account the damage done to stand
ing timber, the departments author
tiles are agreed that fire should be
rigidly kept out of woodlands.

School Notes.
RN Cunt Nntnn,

The work of grading the eight
grade examination papers and re
cording the grades has been a very
tedious piece of work. A very much
larger number of applicants wrote
upon the examination than at any
previous examination. The exam
ination proved very difficult for a
large number. A large percentage
of the applicants failed. Some of
these are conditioned in only one or
two studies, but many will be re-
quired to write upon all the branches
in which they do not have exemp-
tions. The next examination will be
held June 4 and 5.
Teachers who have completed the
reading circle work for the year
should send in for blanks upon which
to make report of their work. Con-
tracts should not be sent in for regis
tration unless the teacher at the
same time sends in a report of the
reading circle work and also her GER
tificate for registration. Certificates
can not be registered until the read
ing circle work is completed, and
contracts are not valid until the GER
tificate is registered.
The National Educational Asso-
citation will meet at st. Paul, Mimi,
July Gil. 1t is not likely that
many of our teachers can attend, but
those residing in the middle West,
who go home for vacation, may be
able to attend.

as curious as its contents. For many
years it had been supposed that no
