MOTION PICTURE CAMPAIGNING.
Pictures VIII be Extensively Used
This Fall.

1t was announced some weeks ago
that motion pictures would be used
extensively this fall by the Republi-
can national campaign committee.
Probably the Democrats will not be
slow to pick up the same method of
argument.
1t is not sure how effective the
politicians will make this novel
method of propaganda. One can i'm
agine how they will present pictures
OF the candidates in all conceivable
attitudes, in all kinds of costumes.
They will be shown making speeches,
their favorite gestures perfectly re-
produced. They will be pictured
shaking hands with the hard hand
ed laboring man, to show their demo-
cratic spirit. There will be films Of
their children and grand children.
There is of course no political ar
gument in this kind of thing. Yet
many voters are influenced by the
personal appearance and forceful
manner of candidate. And they are
not all in the Equal Suffrage states
either. Autographed pictures of
candidates have long been an approx
ed method. Movies will accomplish
the same result more effectively.
Some day however, moving pic
lures will be used in far more effec-
tive manner than the ways suggested
above. The most skillful makers will
be secured, and commissioned to
produce films having dramatic pow
er, putting political arguments into
story form.
When one thinks what a profound
impression is produced by many
picture plays, the possibilities of pic
ture campaigning become apparent.
"The Birth of Nation" for instance,
dealt with history so years old. Yet
1t incites heated discussion, person
al encounters, and even riots. A
really skillful moving picture maker
dealing with the facts and forces
and passions of every day life will
some day make campaign film that
will be just as powerful. 1t will
mark a new era in campaigning.

TIED TO LIMB; is ATTACKED BY
BEES.
Big Swarm Puts Centerville Man I'm.
der Physicians Care.

Centerville, Aug. 2S.-Suspended
by rope while engaged in cutting
a bee tree on Shoal Creek, Morley
Hughes was attacked by the enrag-
ed bees, and before he could let him
self down, was severely stung all
ever the body, so that he had to have
medical attention. He is quite a
little better now and will doubtless
soon recover.
Mr.. Hughes, together with his
brother, Dwight, Ike Crowder and
several others, had been baling hay
in the morning and about noon a
slight rain made the hay too wet to
work with for some time. So they
conceived the idea of cutting bee
tree in the nearby woods to pass the
time away until they could return to
their work. A cross-cut saw was
procured and the party went over to
where the tree had been located and
which was believed to contain a
quantity of delicious honey
The limb containing the bees was
some distance from the ground and
it was found necessary for one of
the men to climb the tree.
Mr.. Hughes volunteered to do this,
and, in order to leave his hands free
tied rope about his body and then
to the tree to hold him in place.
The limb broke, libearting the
swarm and leaving Mr.. Hughes tied
UP in the tree at their mercy.
The bees naturally attacked him
and before he could unite the rope
and let himself down he had been
badly stung all over the body. His
face was especially full of stings and
it was quite task to remove all of
them. He was taken home by his
companions and physician called
who gave him relief and he is now
recovering from his dangerous exper-
fence. NJ
The episode might easily have
proved fatal as bees have been
known in several instances to sting
their victim so badly that he died,
and this could easily have resulted in
this case had Mr.. Hughes not t~en
able to get away as quickly as he
did.

Taney County, true to her unwavering
belief in the principles of Republcanism,
went to the polls on election day and put
up good, substantial majority for every
man on the ticket, from presidential elector
down to constable. She did the same
thing in the election of 1912, and prob
ably will continue to do so as long as the
principles of the Republican party are to
be voted for. Below we give the totals
of the vote in the county for the candi-

How 1t Happened,

We are cleaned, the Captain shouted, as
he staggered to the bar; give ne a Wilson
cocktail, cause he kept us out of war.
We fit them all right vaIiantly, and gave
them all we had; but its an awful story
for me to tell to dad, A couple good
big reasons why we couldn't get their
goat, was Henry Flivvers bankrolI and
the suffragette vote. New York stood
up right nobly, and so did Illinois; but
Kansas, she went crazy, and California
made some noise. @..@
