While the above record is consd'

cases treated by us, at the same time
we will promise these results to any
man who will call us when his herd
is in the same condition as Mr.. Haw
kins', that is, IL the farmer will turn
us loose on his herd when he has
only a small percentage Of his herd
sick, we will save the entire balance
all the we'll ones and very consid
cradle proportion of the sick ones
while If his hogs are all or nearly
all sick when he calls us the only
thing for us to do Is to turn around
and go back to town, and this ID
self defense.
Call early and often, we will cont
and do what we can for you.

HOPKINS viii Be Endorsed For Dele

BeasIey and Hickman for Members
OF the state Committee.

Republicans of Maury county Will
meet in mass convention at the Court
House in Columbia on Monday, Feb
ruary 2S, for the purpose of naming
delegates to the state republican con
vention, to name delegates to the con-
gressional convention of the Seventh
district and for the election of new
county republican committee.
The call for the convention was is
sued this morning by Chairman John
B. Brooks, of the county republican
committee, and it is as follows:
Republican County Convention, for
Maury county, is hereby called to meet
at the Court House in Columbia,
Tenn, on February 2Sth, 1916 at noon,
for the purpose of sending delegates
to the state convention, which meets
at Nashville, Tern, on May 9rd, 1916;
to send delegates to congressional
convention for the Seventh congress.
sional district, the time and place is
vet to be determined and to attend to
such other matters as may properly
come before the convention
JOHN B. BROOKS. Chairman,
IS. A. VEST, Secretary"
In the interest of harmony, it is al
together likely that no instructions
will be given at the Maury county
convention for delegates from the
state at large or for governor or Uni
ted States senator There are some
Sanders supporters in the county and
there are a number of anti-Sanders
men, therefore, in order that this
question may not be raised, it is quite
likely that all expressions of prefer
ences except for district places, will
be pretermitted.
It is certain that the convention
will instruct for R. S. Hopkins of this
county, for one of the delegates from
the Seventh district to the national
republican convention. 1t is also
quite certain that the delegates to the
state convention will be instructed to
vote for John Beasley, Of Hickman
county and Emmett Hickman, of Giles
county for the members Of the state
committee from the Seventh district.
A new county committee will be
elected and plans made for vigorous
campaign in the county. One thing
is certain, T. Roosevelt will not get
any endorsement from the republicans
Of Maury county and probably the
same will be true Of the entire dis
trict. Hughes is really the choice Of
the republicans of this section.

REPRESENTATIVE PADGETT.

IT should be a source of gratifica-
ton to the democrats of the Seventh
district, as it will no doubt be to'tne
democrats in congress, to know that
the prospects are good for the return
.of the Hon. Lemuel p Padgett for
another term of usefulness in the ma
tional house without any opposition
II would be unfortunate in this great
presidential year, when the democrat
ic party should present united 'front.'
10 have any division or discord 1t is
also a time for keeping the expert
enced and tried servant. This is
critical period in the history OF this
country. The war has brought PROD
lems for solution never dreamed OF.
No matter what the result or that
titanic conflict may be there will be
grave questions for the government OF
this country to decide. They will be
questions that should be decided by
the ablest, the most experienced and
the most capable Of our statesmen.
Mr.. Padgett has served this dis
trict with credit, with distinction and
with exceptional ability for the past
sixteen years. He has measured up
to the highest standard of public SER
vice. He has represented the inter
ests of all the people. He has never
been a demagogue or q f1atterer OF
the people, but has won his way to-
their favor by sheer force OF charac
ter and ability. The people have con
aidence in Padgett's judgment, in his
clear thinking and in his integrity
As the years have passed he has in
creased in usefulness to the district
and the nation. He is now one OF
fhe foremost leaders Of the national
congl ess, factor in shaping the az
fairs of this great republic. There Is
not a member of the states delega-
ton who excels Mr. Padgett in ability
or influence in the halls of congress.
Padgett has devoted his entire time
20 the public service ever since his
first election to congress. He has
entirely abandoned a once lucrative
law practice. Everything that he has
ds invested in farm in this county
die has given himself, his time, his
energy, his whole resources Of mind
and body to the service of all the
people. He has not meddled with or
interferred with the affairs of the
state or the county. He has never
sought to be political boss or to die
tate the. distribution of patronage.
He has been content to dedicate him
self to the service of the people in
the position to which they had called
him.
AS a lawyer, Mr.. Padgett ranks
with the best AS a speaker none is
more convincing. AS debater, he
can hold his own with the ablest in
the congress. In private life his
walk IS clean and conventional. Ex-
perienced, able, patriotic, sound upon
all public issues, he makes an ideal
representative and 1t is fortunate that
the district is assured of his splen-
did services for another two years at
least.

MINERS WAGE
TRACTS END
New Agreement in Some
Fields Add Millions
to Earnings.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. April 1.
Wage contracts affecting several
hundred thousand mine workers in
the anthracite regions Of Pennsyl-
vania ana in eight of the bituminous
coal producing states of the country
expired Friday. and in some OF these
fields new agreements will go into
effect that will add many millions
of dollars to the earnings OF the coal
diggers. Virtually all union mine
workers will. as usual, observe April
l as a holiday in commemoration OF
the soft coal workers winning the
eight hour day in organized fields
years ago.
Officers Of the United Mine Work.
ers of America expect that the or
ganized workers will generally OBJ
serve the policy adopted by the
union that all men continue at work
after contracts expire so long as ne
gotiations are under way for new
agreements. a general notice to the
men to abide by the non-suspension
policy has been sent out by the
international organization OF the
miners.
Reports from the anthracite fields
say there is movement among an
element of the hard coal workers
TO refuse 10 work next week and
many have removed their tools from
the colleries. Negotiations for a new
wage agreement affecting the 49,
600 mine workers in the anthracite
fields are still being worked out.
Appeals by officers OF the union in
the lower coal fields of the anthra-
cite regions have resulted i'm the men
deciding to continue work. Some
OF the men declare, however. that
they will work one week longer and
| then quit until a new wage scale is
arranged.
Where Contracts Expire.
The states IN which bituminous
contracts expired Friday night were
central ano western districts; Ohio.
Indiana. Illinois. West Virginia.
Michigan. Iowa and Kentucky. In
! western Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois a new agreement was
made at New York a few weeks
ago subject TO a referendum vote of
all the coal miners. In those four
states the men were given increases
in wages that are expected to net
them about if cen million dollars in
the next two years.
Negotiations are in progress in
Philadelphia for a new agreement
in the central Pennsylvania fields
and in the other states where wage
| scales expired Friday new contracts
have or will be arranged if possible.
