rifle and serve in the ranks be-
cause of such advocacy, in the

Dodge Brothers Dealer
Appointed.

Announcement 10 made OF the
selection OF DR.. j. Il. Olivier to
handle the forthcoming Dodge
Brother motor car in S.. Martin
vile.
The rivalry on the part of deal
srs to represent this now car has
been intense, not only in this sec
ton, but thruout the country-as
high a. 81 applications having
been received from dealers in some
of the larger cities. 1t lie there
fore q distinct compliment to DIR.
Olivier that hs has been success.
full in securing this most coveted
leadership.
Dodge Brothers arc widely
known in the automobile industry
ss the largest manufacturers OF
parts in the word. 1t 10 stated on
good authority that they have sup.
piled the vital parts to over 100000
of the l 10000 cars now in use in
this country.
Because of their tremendous
manufacturing facilities. their
high financial standing, and their
wide experience in tho msnufac-
tire Of parts, it 10 generally con-
dsd that the car they will market
this Fall will SGT . new standard
in automobile values. Their car
has been called the Gar OF Mys-
tory" because Of tho fact that no
word has boon gwen out as to
price, dimensions or equipment.
In spite of this fact, the reputa-
ton of Dodge Brothers is such
that the best dealers throuout the
country are taking on the line,
"bsoauss", 40 DIR. Olivier says,
lit is inconcsivable that a con.
oern Of the character of Dodge
Brothers should manufacture q
Car that would not only play q
very large part in establishing au-
tomobils values for the future"

Cotton Sacks For Flour Ship
mentS.
mentS.

In order to increase tho demand
for cotton, one of tho largest -four
milling firms in America has d.
rsctsd its managers and salssmen
oil over the country to urge its
customers to accept deliveries of
flour that are shipped in cotton
instead of juts sacks. Hitherto
jute imported from India has been
used extensively for shipments of
flour, both TO homo aud foreign
markets. The sacks employed
hold l40 pounds each. II tho
trade can be induced to accept
shipments in cotton sacks holding
% pounds each there will be a
marked increase in the demand
for homegrown cotton and the
action Of the four-milling firm is
regarded as long step in this d.
rsction. Anything that will i'm
prove the financial condition of
the cotton growers, it is pointed
out. will increase the volume of
their cash purchases and thus
benefit business conditions. For
this reason it 10 believed that the
trade will not insist on the lutte
sacks used hitherto. - u. 5. De-

Elk Mountain News

Considerable excitement was caus-

Caldwell, alias John Harwell, as he
called himself around here, was hav-
ing an argument about chopping ties,
when Harwell without warning sud-
denly jumped upon Logan and began
cutting him with his pocket-knife.
He first cut him across the throat,
nearly from ear to ear, also in the
breast and abdomen. Logan defend
ed himself as best he could and turn.
ed to run, for he had only his hare
hands to help him. Harwell caught
his coat tail and cut him across the
back several times before Logan
could break away. Fortunately none
Of the wounds we're deep enough to
reach a vital spot and Logan is fast
recovering, though very sore. Word
was phoned in by VIM. Larson and
Deputy Sheriff E. q. Tyler at once

located il a bunk house at the tie
camp, but saw the officer coming and
ran into the woods. He was fred at,
but would not stop, as in the running
fight in the timber ii was difficult to
shoot straight. A tie chopper, called
Red, who has known Harwell for sew
eral years, says his right name is
Charles Caldwell, and that he is
wanted for two murders in Arkansas,
and he was also implicated in the
shooting up of a court in Vir
