In novel and typically American way,
the Studebaker corporation OF South Bend

The first order is for the purchase OF
500 bales. This cotton will be bought at
10 cents pound.
President T.. S Fish outlined the Studc-
baker plan in a brief interview.
I'VE are buying this cotton" he said,
because OF our belief that, in the condi-
tons which now prevail, we owe a defl-
mite duty to the southern planters who
are suffering so distressingly as the re-
suit Of the European war. We are maxi
ing this expenditure i'm a way which will
enable us to place every cent OF it with
the southern farmers-the producers. Not
one bale will be bought through specu-

Far more influential in determining our
present course was, however our own
feeling of obligation TO the southern
planters. virtually all of whom are our
customers, and many OF whom have
bought studebaker goods for two genera
tons.
Our investment In cotton will be vir-
tually a loan in which we assume the en-

dispose of our cotton at an advanced

took, to task the Republican campaign
speakers and newspapers for their
criticism Of the Hodges' administration
and the work Of the last legislature.
He asked them TO point out what bills
passed by the last legislature they
would have repealed? What appro-
priations made by that legislature
would they reduce? What useless
boards that they claim were created
would they abolish?
Has there been a single charge Of
graft or have they pointed out where
the Democrats have made improve
ments that they would not have made
in the state Institutions? II they can
not point out these things then their
charges are made merely to deceive
the people and get their votes SO they
may go back into office.

praised the fearless work of Senator
Joseph L. Bristow. But it remained
for Major Harvey to mention Curtis.
Capper apparently forgot him. He did
not indicate that Curtis might be ex-
pected to take up the work where Sem
ator Bristow will lay 1t down.
Speaking in the district that IL the
possible stronghold Of the Progressives,
Capper did not mention his Independ-
ence speech. Nor did he hasten to as
sure the voters that he had never left
the Republican party. Nor was 1t urged
that Ezra Branine would make the
same progressive record in congress as
that made by Murdoch when he was
elected as a Republican. That was an
other job that fell to the 10. Of Major
Harvey.
Harvey was Not Backward.
There was no uncertainty in Major
Harvey's talk. He made 1t possible
Tor Eighth district voters to hear the
gospel Of both progressive and conserv-
alive Republicanism from the same
platform under the same banner within
the hour.
II am probably one of those old fogy
fellows who have been classified as a
standpatter." said Harvey. Then Har-
vey told why he was proud of the title.
Harvey turned his guns on Govern

form Of state legislature. He battered
the Democratic governors pet theory
until 1t was tattered and torn to
shreds. He said the idea was con-
trary to the traditions and principles

the idea meant placing the reins of
government in the hands of the few
and the taking OF the law making
bodies out of the hands of the people.
After he had paid his compliments
to the Democratic governors recent
hobby. Harvey turned his attention to
the Progressive party. The new
party. he said, was organized not to
relieve and better conditions, but to
beat a few Republican candidates.
The Progressive party is a snare and
a delusion, a false and forlorn hope,
said the Topeka lawyer.

Hal Griffin, Bill Kuhlman and Wait
Brouthers, all Muckalee cast-offs, will

the Americas team. But there will be
nine as determined men playing
against them, and it will be a pattle-

use his brag duo, Wilder and Fillen-
gem, in two of the games, and ANNA
ger Dave is planning to run them off
the mound with his heavy artillery.
It's cinch the games will all be bat
ties. The Muckalees stack up even
stronger than the Ramblers, so the
fans can be sure of at least two out
of three.

and a double by Erl Biting. In the
ninth they started things off with two
singles, one by Dick Manchester and
the other poked out by Red Dacey.
But two pop-outs and a strike-out
were pulled off, and the game was
lost.
In spite of the seven errors that
Americas made, the Muckalees look
good in the field. Charlie Leonard at
second was a regular Johnnie Evers.
The boy covered worlds of ground and
was right there several times with the
quick recovery on hits that he slapped

fast double plays; Dick Manchester
figured in all three of them and Bit
ting, Leonard, Ellis and Geary helped
him pull them off.

was released Friday and then signed
again Saturday, made the Muckalee
fans applaud him by his fast. work
The stumpy kid was as fast as COM
ct and made several stops and run
ming throws that were spectacular.
Leonard, Geary, Ellis and Dacey
were the Muckalees that got busy with
more than their share of bingles. Two
safeties apiece came their way. Mitch
Davenport ripped off homer for the
visitors that helped to swell their run
columns. Luckily for the Muckalees
the bags were empty when the clout
came.

STANDING OF CLUBS
Georgia State League.

Yesterday was an off-day for the
Muckalees. They just couldn't win
from the Hornets, even though they
hammered Professor Day hard and
took advantage of several bones the
Thomasville bunch pulled. The Hor-
nets had a big horseshoe in their hip
pockets and this couple with several
errors made at critical stages of the
game gave them the last of the series
:sAto 5.
Red Dacey started for the Mucka-
lees and was not right. Three runs
were made off him, and then Geary
was sent in. But the Hornets had their
batting lamps going full tilt and they
scored some several more off the Gin
rcinnati kid before the game was over.
In the third with five-run lead
staring them in the face, Dacey start
ed a rally with a single that came
near tieing the score. With two
down Leonard and Riley singled, and
after Geary and Ellis had doubled the
boys had scored four and looked good
to continue. Grady Bowen lifted one
that Davenport smothered and the rail-
sJy was off.
