We. the Republican party, being ut

up to you:
For nearly four years now a Demo
cratic Administration has been in
power. Contrary to every law of
reason. every principle of progress.
the country Is ut peace and alive,
nay, humming with prosperity. Bust
ness is rushing. Wages are high. The
only discomfort is the discomfort of
those who are reaching for bigger
chunks of plenty.
We are tl&nhrrgaStrd. All this has
happened during II period when the
rest of the world has been ngog when
international crises were impending
on all sides, when We would have
sworn only Republican craftsmanship
could pull the nation through.
No war has rngulfcd MS. No panic
hns parnlyzcd us. No nation has
with impunity continued to infringe
upon our rights.
We can't deny what has been done.
All we can do Is take our oath we
could have done II better. How, we
do not know. If only we said ii loud
and long enough we hoped the coun-
try would believe us.
But the country is busy and our
voices grow hoursc. W" are having II
hard time.

PISTOL DUEL IN PICKENS co.
About Eighteen Shots Were Fired,
But Nobody Was Hurt

Easley, July 26.-Quite little ex-
cltement was created yesterday
morning about II o'clock at rail
road camp near Calhoun, when Con-
tractor Myers and two negroes en-
gagged In pistol duel. In spite Of
the fact that some IS shots were
fired, none Of the three parties was
injured. One negro, Frank Jackson,
has been arrested and is lodged now
in the county jail at Pickens.
The two negroes came to the camp
Of MIR. Myers, who ordered them
away since they were noisy and were
creating a disturbance One obeyed
the order and retreated to the rail-
road track, but the other refused.
Thereupon Mr.. Myers struck him
over the head and kicked him out of
the tent. He then joined his COM
panion on the railroad and both pull
ed revolvers and emptied them at Mr..
Myers, who returned the fire. The
officers soon hit the trail and traced
the two negroes to vacant house,
where they ran upon a crowd Of gam
blers. One OF the pair sought was
captured, but the other made good
his escape.

MINING UNDER CORNFIELDS.
Fine Agricultural Area in Hllinoi.
Used for Extensive Mining,

In the popular mind most metal
mining is associated with mountain
Gus regions. We know that coal is
mined near cornficlds, but how many,
oH-hand, would locate lead and zine
deposits in grain fields? A recent
publication by the United States Geo
logical Survey describes thickly
settled agricultural district in North
western Illinois where corn, oats and
hay are raised on the surface and
lead and zinc are extracted from the
rocks beneath the fields.
The publication referred to is one
of the units of the great geologic at
las OF the United States and de-
scribes the Galena and Elizabeth
quadrangles, in Illinois. The field
surveys for this report were made
under cooperative agreement be-
tween the United States Geological
Survey and the State Of Illinois. The
area described lies in the extreme
northwest corner Of the State and is
in the "driftless area" which was
not covered by the continental gla-
cier and therefore contains no gla-
cial drift. The exposed rocks are
wholly Of sedimentary origin and
consist of hard rock Of Ordovician
anu ollut lttu aSc ana unCOnSOlluatCu
surficial deposits. The report de-
scribes these rocks, shows the geo
logic structure or lay Of the rocks,
and gives the sequence Of events in
the geologic history of the area and
an account OF the mineral resources.
Although agriculture is the princi-
pal industry, several hundred men
are engaged in zinc and lead mining.
The most productive mines are
grouped in certain rather small dis
tricts known as the Galena, the Sand
Prairie, and the Elizabeth districts.
The productive ore bodies are con-
fined to the Galena dOlOmite and the
Decorah shale. Most OF the mines are
100 to 200 feet deep. The produc-
ton Of lead concentrates in 1914 was
valued at $2S,7SS. aud that Of zinc
concentrates at $320,012. The lead
sold from this region since mining
began has brought about $50.000,-
600. and the zinc produced since
about 1860 has been sold for about
100000. Prospecting for new
deposits still continues.

HAD HER FORTUNE TOLD.
is Now IL Mental and Physical Wreck.
Will Mover Recover

Burlington. N. c., July 2S.-A
case unparalleled In the annals of
this town was tried yesterday in
Mayor M0Ore's court when Mrs. Clem
Evans and Mrs. Rosa Smith, wives Of
Iarcling horse traders, were held in
court to answer to the charge OF "ad-
mlniStcring dope or exercising hyp-
notic or other occult power" over
Mrs. l.ottie Ward, of this place. Mrs.
Ward lies at her home in il state of
inertia similar to paralysis and has
hecn SO confined since Tuesday of
last week, when the defendants came
10 finish telling her fortune. which
had begun at the camp OF the women
the Sunday before. Her continued
illncsS alarmed her daughter and a
doctor was called and administered
n stimulant. Next morning she was
in the same condition.
consultation was later held.
The doctors stuck pins in her flesh
to see If the scnsory nerves were
dead, and she did not finch until
they reached her forehead and a
place on her neck.
At one time when she rallied a
statement Of what occurred was OBJ
tanned. She said she with three 9TH
crs went 10 the camp on sunday af-
tornoon, July 16. to have her for
tune told. When she went into the
room the women caught hold Of her
hand and she felt as if charge of
electricity was running up her arm.
Ehe women told her many things and
then asked her for lock of her hair.
This the fortunctellcr wrapped in ii
piece OF paper and struck match to
1t, and as It burned three snakes ran
out OF the fire. She has been seeing
these snakes ever since. and the wo-
man told hcr. she said, they were
enemies and would be destroyed. She
was given 4 glass Of something re-
SemblinG frost and told to smell it.
She did this and left. the woman
promising to 80 to her house tho fol.
lowing Sunday and finish the fortune
Dr. Montgomery gave as his opin.
ion that Mrs. Ward will never re.
cover, either physically or mentally
though he was unable to testify as &c
the cause Of her condition. He Is
inclined to attribute it to form OF
hystcria which could have been pro
huccd by several different causes.
The defendants were bound over
tD Superior Court under S2OC
bond, which they gave by dcpositin.
Ghe cash. The case will be heard a

Germans Realize War Is Near End

Paris, July 2S.-Sir Edward Nor
ris, premier Of Newfoundland, de-
clared to-day that the Germans we're
beginning TO realize that the war is
practically over. Premier Morris has
Just returned from the section OF the
Somme front where the Newfound-
land detachment Is stationed. Be-
fore leaving he was asked by Presi-
dent Poincare and Premier BRAND to
express to his countrymen in the
trenches Frances admiration and
appreciation Of their splendid SER
vices
Tho war is virtually finished and
the Germans are beginning to realize
it, said the premier. '"The battle Of
Ecrdun, the greatest battle in his
tory. is victory for France. 1t is
the finest Of all her glorious exploits
and gives new impulse to the whole
nation.
German prisoners with whom |
talked. officers wearing the iron
cross. told me that the Emperor and
his STAFF seem to fear that Germany
has lost the game. The collapse of
Germany is only a question OF time.
When that day arrives we must see
that the victory won by our armies
Is not lost by diplomatic negotia-
tons"
