TROUBLE IN THE
ninth DISTRICT
Governor Stuart Ignores
Independent Candidates .
u, Statement
NEW TAX LAWS FIGURE
Friends Of Executive Say Jordan Was
Understood to Favor Segregation
at one Time.

Richmond, July 27-More than or
! dinary interest attaches to the sens-
| torial race in the Ninth District. ronl-
posed of the counties of Augusta and
Highland and the city of Staunton,
where Professor C. T. Jordan has an
nounced himself an independent can-
didate against Senator William H.
Landes, who has been declared the
Democratic nominee for the seat he
now holds.
Jordan attacks the regularity of the
action of the committee in declaring
Landes, who had no opposition, tie
party nominee; indicates that he will
make an issue of the new segregation
system of taxation, supported By
Landes at the extraordinary sesalon
and scores Governor Stuart for mis-
support Of the tax legislation, adopted
"at the dictation of the Governor" at
the extraordinary session Of the Gen.
eral Assembly.
Governor Stuart will probably ig-
more the attack made upon him by
Jordan in signed statement printed
in the Staunton papers Sunday. At
the Capitol yesterday it was recalled
by friends of the Governor that Prof
essor Jordan was understood to favor
segregation when in Richmond Lass
winter. At that time he was an ac-
tive caudiciate for appointment as
State Hospital Commissioner, to sue
ceed Joseph NJ. Bauserman, of Wood
stock. Governor Stuart reappointed
Bauserman.
For several years the Republican
organization in Augusta and Staun-
ton has been seeking to split the De-
mocratic ranks by support Of inde-
pendent nominees, and former United
States Marshal r.. A. Fulwiler is
understood to be one of Jordan's ar
dent supporters in the present fight.
Jordan has been one Of the prohibi-
tion leaders in the Valley, while F'u:-
wiler has been aligned with the
"wets". 1t was during the local op-
ton election in Staunton in 1913 'tnat
Fulwiler and Colonel S. Brown Allen,
then postmaster, were on opposite
sides of the liquor question, Allen
taking the stump for the :drys". n
his signed statement, Jordan does
not mention the prohibition question.
The chairman of the Democratic
county committee Of Augusta and
His ghland and the city committee OF
Saunton have issued statements de-
claring that Senator Landes is the
regular party nominee, and that the
primary lists were not closed unit:
after the notice required by law had
been given.
Senator Landes was elected last
January to fill the uneXpircd term oil
the late Senator Edward Echols. He
is former Mayor of .Staunton ana a

Happy Jack Squirrel Receives
a Warning.

A fat Gray Squirrel is very tempting
to number of people in the Green
Forest, particularly in winter, when
getting living is hard work. Almost
every day Reddy and Granny Fox stole
softly through that part Of the Green
Forest where Happy Jack Squirrel
lives, hoping to surprise and catch
him on the ground. But they never
did. Roughleg the Hawk and Hooty
the Owl wasted great deal of time
sitting around near Happy Jacks home,
hoping to catch him when he was not
watching But they never did
Happy Jack knew all about these big.
hungry neighbors, and he was always
on the watch for them. He knew their
ways. and just where they would be
likely to hide. He took the greatest
care TO look into every such hiding
place near at hand before he ventured
down out of the trees, and because
these hungry neighbors are so big he
never had any trouble in seeing them
II they happened to be around So
Happy Jack didn't do much worrying
wasn't afraid of them at all, for the
simple reason that he knew they
couldn't follow him into his hollow
tree.
Having nuts stored away, he would
have been perfectly happy but for one
thing. Yes. sir; there was only one
thing to spoil Happy Jacks complete
happiness, and that was the fear that
Shadow the Weasel might take it into
his head to pay him a visit. Shadow
can go through a smaller hole than
Happy Jack can. and SO Happy Jack
knew that where he was wholly safe
from his other enemies. he wasn't safe
at all from Shadow the Weasel. And

this worried him. Yes. sir: it worried
Happy Jack. He hadn't seen or heard
of Shadow for a long time. but he had
a feeling that he was likely to turn up
almost any time, especially now that
everything was covered with snow and
ice, and food was scarce and hard to
get. He sometimes actually wished
that he wasn't as fat as he was. Then
he would be less tempting to hungry
neighbors.
But no good comes of worrying. No,
sir; not a bit of good comes of worry
ing, and Happy Jack knows it.

not be careless" said ne. and dropped
