REGIMENT TO WORK OUT
BIG FIELD MOVEMENT
Guardsmen at Camp ordway to Par
ticipate in Attack and De-
fense Maneuvers.

While all of the troops were on the
parade ground, undergoing drills Tor
the charitable event Saturday. plans
were being made by the officers for a
big field problem in which all of the
troops with the exception or the neld
artillery will participate.
Col. Glendie B. Young. commanding
the Sd Infantry. together with capt.
Horace P. Hobbs. the United States
mastering officer, went out in the dl-
rection of Alexandria to select ground
upon which the whole regiment could
act in an attack and defense problem,
in which Troop A of cavalry will be the
enemy
1t will be the first problem in which
the entire regiment will participate on
one side as a whole since the troops
have been in camp, and 1t is 10 De gone
to see just hlw the District soidlers
could take care of them selves in real
combat without having the whole force
annihilated.
Capt. Hobbs to Serve as Umpire.
Capt Hobbs who will outline the
problem. will act as umpire and show
whether the troops made mistakes
which would have resulted in their an
initiation or whether they were de-
ployed SO as to come out victorious
With the hard training the men nave
undergone since they have been IN
camp, it is expected that they will give
an excellent account of themselves.
Camp Ordway was Jared into real
ization of what real war would sound
like" this morning when Battery A,
Field Artillery, began discharging its
guns. Two sections of the battery
were out for drill. They dashed here
and there about the drill field, dis
mounted and went into action, fir
ing heavy charges of blank ammuni-
tion. Incidentally they are getting
some fine practice which will make
them show up well Saturday.
There are yet no signs of an immedi-
ate movement of the District troops
toward the border and every days de-
lay is breeding discomfort. Many of
the men are wanting to get out The
reassurances from the War Department
that the troops will be sent seem to
have little effect. due to the fact that
the men have been disappointed so
many times.

with artificial lighting facilities which
enable its producers to stage plays
in all sorts of weather, while the days
of sunshine are devoted mostly to
exterior scenes. George X. spoor.

MAJORITY OF VOTERS
FAILED TO PAY POLL
TAXES; DISQUALIFIED
VOTE IN THE JUSTICE or PEACE
ELECTION WILL BE LESS
THAN 400.
Kiln Il 1ll!I ART lXtkPT
Some OF The Most Prominent Citizens
OF The City Neglected to Settle
With the State Until After the 18th
Day Of February.

AS the result of the poll tax act of
1915 and the failure of the voters of
the city to pay their poll taxes for
last year on or before Feb. 18th, there
are not more than 400 voters In the
city of Columbia who are now quail
fed to vote in the coming contest for
justice Of the peace between Gran P.
Pratt and George W. Hayes.
There are about forty voters who
are too young to pay any poll taxes
for last year who will be qualified to
cast ballot. There are probably ESQ
who are over age or who have been
released by the county court from the
payment Of poll taxes for some legal
reason. There are not many more
than 100 who have paid their poll
taxes within the time prescribed by
the new statute.
This makes total OF about 400 vot-
ers who can vote in the coming cleo
ton. There were 1000 cast in the
last city election, Since most Of those
who are qualified are old men the per
centage of the vote cast to the vote
qualified will doubtless be unusually
small This means probably that moi
more than 300 votes or at the outside
$50 will be cast in the coming cleo
ton.
/ Among those who will not be quail
fed to vote are some of the most prom
inent citizens of the city and county
!, They have been In the habit Of waitin,
| until just before the penalty accrue
to pay their taxes and they followe
that custom this year, they find then
selves for the first time In life dis
: qualified in an election. However
there is little complaint. They ADM
that it was all their own fault. tn
law is generally approved and the
. alone must suffer for their neglect.

ELECT DELEGATES
70 CONVENTION IS
PROBABLY THE PLAN
MASS MEETING IDEA NOT LIKELY
TO MEET FAVOR WITH THE
COMMITTEE.
NO CONTEST is FxP. CTED
Endorsement OF Gov. Rye And Presl-
dent Wilson by the Democrats Of
Maury County Seems to be Fore
gone Conclusion.

When the county democratic COM
mittee meets on next Monday at IL
o'clock to provide a method for the
selection of delegates to the state
democratic convention, 1t will probably
order a delegated concentration. A
primary or district mass meetings
will be ordered to select the dele
gates to the county convention.
There has been some discussion of
mass convention, but since the dem
ocratic party is once more united and
harmonious In the county, with only
one organization claiming to repre-
sent the. organized democracy of the
county, 1t is more than likely that the
old precedents that existed before the
party was torn by factional fights,
will be followed. 1t was always the
custom in the old days to elect dele
gates to county convention and it
is thought altogether likely that this
5, will be the sentiment of the commit.
tee.
1t is not anticipated that there will
be any contest IN the county conyen
ton here. Gov. Rye is the choice Of an
! overwhelming majority Of the demo
Gratis Of the county, regardless of for
inner factional differences and will re
celve the instructions of the conven
ton. If there are any anti-Wilsol
democrats in the county they have no
made that fact known and the presi
dent is sure to cordial endorsement
here.
There are number Of vacancies Of
the county committee, including tn
office Of secretary. These will all b
filled when the committee meets Mon
day The following is the vote of tn
committee by districts: Numbers one
two, three, four, FIVE, six have eac
two votes. Number nine has six votel
Number seven three votes and humble
eight and ten one vote each. Thi
makes twenty-three votes In the con
mittee.
