convicts, capable of road work
are given out to the various coun.
ties that request them. The coun.

ma, that provides for the manu-
facture of gun powder and for
the manufacture of nitrates for
use in fertilizers. In arguing
the bill Senator Smith said: IF
[ am to be dubbed a socialist or
populist because [ stand here
and attempt to help the farmers
this Country I have no apology
to make"
Senator Underwood, of Ala
bama, strongly endorsed the
measure of the South Carolina
Senator.
Advocating the use of the nj.
trio acid plant, Mr.. Underwood
said if plant costing millions of
dollars is to be built and used for
making gun powder it should
also be used for making nitric
acid for fertilizer. He contended
that it was absurd to send to
Chile and pay enormously for nj.
trate that we can manufacture
cheaply in our plant. Using the
factory when idle and not making
gun powder, for the purpose of
making nitric acid for fertilizer
for the farmers was a matter of
economy that ought to commend
Senator Smiths plan to every
Senator.

The experience was, 10 say the
least, delightful. The perfect
harmony, the singleness of pur.
pose and unity of action were
calculated to inspire one with
the hope of a great accomplish
ment in the fall.
1t is said that Chesterfield
County is united as she has not
been in thirty years before. This
unity means much for the peace
of the county during the coming
campaign and it may mean much
more. 1t may mean that Ches-
terfield County will furnish The
next representative from the
Fifth Congressional District to
the United States Congress.
If the enthusiasm fer the Hon
| w. r. Stevenson manifested at
this convention represents the
sentiment of the people of the
county, Mr.. Stevenson is sure
of every vote TO be cast in this
county next fall-and that will
help some.

Bv Walter Malone

They do me wrong who say come no more,
When once l knock and fail to find you in
For every day stand utside your door,
And bid you wake and rise to fight and win,
Vail not for precious chances passed away;
Weep not for golden ages on the wane!
Each night burn the records OF the day;
At sunrise every soul is, born again.
Laugh like boy at splendors that have sped,
TO vanished joys be blind and deaf and dumb;
My judgments seal the dead past with the dead,
But never bind moment yet come
Though deep in mire, wiring not your hands
and weep;
lend my arm to all who say II can.''
No shamefaced outcast sank so deep
But yet might rise again and be man.
Dost thou behold thy lost youth all aghast?
Dost reel from righteous retributon's blow?
Then turn from blotted archives OF the past
And find the futures pages white as snow
Art thou a mourner? Rouse thee from thv smell.
Art thou sinner? Sins may be forgiven;
Each morning gives thee wings to flee from hell
Each night star to guide thy feet to heaven
