SUFFICIENT FOR EMERGENCY

Mr.. w. w. Stanton Of Glover, No. 8
| vice chairman of the hail storm relief
committee, was in Yorkville on yester-
day.
Wren asked about the contributions
of clothing that were sent to Clover
last week, he said that he thought they
were amply sufficient for all needs.
There were many people in the
stricken district. especially among the
negroes" said Mr.. Stanton, who were
practically naked. The contributions
were sufficient for all Of these, of
course, and there were lots of much

ing Of the general assembly, was back
ed by a strong lobby Of corporation
lawyers and cotton mill interests as
the bill came up for discussion and
why the act was not repealed Is q
source of amazcment. Senator Nc
Laurin was bitterly fought from the
fioor Of the house on the ground Of
politics and the like, but the friends of
the new experiment stood firm and re-
fused to bulge. 1t is interesting to
note that Speaker Hoyt was among
those who voted against the repeal bill,
and there Is good reason to believe that
his powerful. influence counted very
materially in the ballot by which the
repeal bill was killed.

The breaking down Of court yes
terday without the trial Of a single
case, again emphasizes the useless ex-
pense to which York county has been
for several years past In
maintaining so many extra terms. AS
long as the law stands as it now is, the
court has to meet on schedule time,
whether there is any real business to
be transacted or not and the taxpay-
ers have to foot the bill. The legisla-
tive delegation should do something
to remedy this most awkward situa-
ton.

VOluSia Is For Good Roads

There can be no question as to
the attitude of the people of Volusia
county with regard to good roads.
That section of Volusia in the vicin-
ity of Daytona has for several years
been noted for its splendid high
ways. But these have been con-
structed of shell, and it has been
found that the up-keep due to ex-
cessive wear and tear is a consider
able item of expense. That is prob
ably the reason why the sections
around Ormond, Holly Hill, Day.
tona, Seabreeze, Daytona Beach and
Port Orange voted to establish a
special good roads district, and in
addition to approve bond issue of
100000 for the building of brick
highways. 1t is an astonishing fact
that the bond issue carried by a vote
of ten to one. For instance, in Day.
tona, there were 1919 votes for the
bonds, and only 10 against. Sea-
breeze and Daytona voted so to s.,
while Holly Hill gave a clean-cut
vote of "a, with none against. Port
Orange stood % to 3, and it was only
Ormond that offered any respectable
opposition, the vote in that village
being Al to 10. This makes total
of BAL to "a.
The proposition is to build a brick
highway from the st. Johns county
line right through to the vicinity Of
New Smyrna. Part of the DeLand-
Daytona road will be bricked, as will
Beach peninsula.
Right on top of all this favorable
road agitation comes the announce

capital, for all of which they will
have to pay usury. This will keep
back the wave of prosperity from
those nations for time.
But in time, and that not so Ion Q
either, all these matters will adjust
themselves, and then real and perma-
nent prosperity will begin. With
the enormous indemnity which
France had to pay after the Franco
Prussian war she was able very soon
to get her head above the waves of
adversely and go swimming along
nicely, and never in her history has
she been so care-free and prosperous
Something like that will occur in all
the nations now at war, and with
renewed energy, all war clouds be-
ing forever swept aside, the people
will go at the work before them of
recuperation, and soon the scars will
be healed and, like the graves of the
fallen soldiers, they will be covered
over and forgotten.
And with returning prosperity in
any and all those nations the Ameri-
can people are to have lions share,
not that they will attempt any I'M
due advantage, but only that kind
ly Providence has shielded them
from the fiery flames of war and at
the same time given them "plente-
Gus years." and now, with granaries
bursting, and with all commercial
land industrial interests at the food
tide, We shall be able to supply the
needs, the vast and limitless needs
of broken Europe, and in so doing
will fill our Golfers to overflowing
with the gold of foreign nations.
There will be work for all, and at
wages commensurate with the cost
of living and the roots of prosperity
will reach clear down to the founda-
tion of the body politic.-EXchange.

HOW TO KEEP YOUNG

To keep young is to keep healthy,
and to keep healthy is to keep from
being poisoned. Our waste pro-
ducts poison us, and drink and drugs
and improper food add to it. Per-
haps never before was there SO much
conscious effort to counterfeit the
process, says the Medical Times.
An earlier generation did it by
, simpler food, and more constant
work in the open air, with less
thought to any of it, But we have
grown in invetion of everything, and
with greater wealth has come great
err indulgences, and with it greater
' danger from the poison that make
against health.
The defense against all the poi
sons that thus beset us is the liver,
and the purpose of right living is
to keep it in good condition. The
, other thing of prime Importance is
| the circulatory apparatus.
Our bodies must be fed with oxy-
gen and relieved of waste which is
cast into the blood and carried
d, through the circulation by central
pump and tubes to be cast out. So,
tanother needed thing is to keep spry

ment that on the 18th of next month
DeLand and Orange City districts
Will vote bonds in the sum of s440.-
600 for better highways. 1t is pre-
sumed that this means brick or con-
crete as a paving material. Should
this bond issue carry, the entire
Daytona-DeLand highway will be
hard-surfaced. and there will be
considerable area of permanent paw
ing done in and around Orange City.
There is also a possibility that this
issue will include the suggestion
made recently by commissioners of
st. Johns county to connect with
Volusia, running south from Brun-
nell, and on through to the vicinity
OF DeLand. There would be some
special value to the latter PROPOSE
ton in view of the fact that the Vol
usia county commissioners have
started move to issue bonds to the
amount of 100000 for the purpose
of draining the Haw Creek district.
This is the section in which the Du>
pont Railway and Land Company
have such large interests, a great
portion of the land being in Volusia
county, although some of it is in st.
Johns. The drainage of this section
and it's opening-up by a system of
hard-surfaced highways would be of
inestimable value both to Volusia
and st. Johns counties.
Work on road paving in the Or
mond-Daytona district will begin

sold and it is hoped to have much
of the paving done early in 1916

STAMPING OUT BRYAN"

The movement in Georgia to
stamp out Bryan" is coming on like
a cyclone.
The Atlanta Constitution, the
Grandma of Georgia journalism, is
going to suppress him by leaving his
name and doings out of it's columns.
Yes, sir! That great dispenser of
advertising and hot air-the big
gest paper in the world that carries
such small amount of news-is
going to snuff out the name and fame
of the eX-secretary of state by clos
ing it's columns to him, and devoting
it's space to medicine advertising and
beer announcements. If you read
about Bryan you will have to find it
in some other paper.
The Constitution propaganda for
getting rid of Bryan is slow as it is
sure. 1t will subject him to long
drawn out treatment of indifference
and contempt that will turn the
hearts of the people from the Ne
braskan, cause them to forget him
and Bryan will of course die with
broken heart-die slowly and
painfully and sorrowfully, but die
just the same in the end.
The Macon Telegraph has another
scheme for getting Bryan out of the
way. The necessity is so urgent it
is not willing to trust to time and
slow processes. Bryan must be Xiv
cred up and that without delay. His
treason must be dealt with promptly
before it poisons the air, pollutes the
very water We drink and causes the
good name of America to scar and
fade from the pages of history. The
Telegraph had to go back somewhat
into history to find a method of dis
patching Bryan, according to its
idea-to find punishment that
| would fit the crime-but it has dub
it up. Here is part of it:
'And for this time the greatest
mob-leader (Bryan) of the people
forsakes the standards of his coun-
try and hastens to the market
place to preach disloyalty, ISOLATION
and treason. What pillory too cruel,
what eibbet too high for the leader
of such lechery-is there no silencer
we can put on this man-is there
no action, no matter how summary
to be taken which will put in irons
and the tower this Benedict Arnold
who boldly, insolently, is striking al
the very bowels of his native land
who fosters possible internal strife
perhaps actual nsurrection among a
polyglot people, already torn by
conflicting convictions?
''Is there no rope, no axe, no court
of treason we may invoke in this
land before warfare actually breaks
out, so that treason may be scotched
e'er yet too late?"
Isn't it awful Mabel?
Bryan used to be fairly respect
able fellow. He was in times past
accorded places on the front pages
of newspapers, and he went to and
fro in the land as he was wont, ant
feared not the axeman or the execu
toner. Now he is shut out. Hi
words fall to the earth. He is {
hunted man, and must soon b.
brought low.
