FARMERS WHO MISSED FIRST
HAVE CHANCE ON SECOND
Campaign for New Bond Issue Begins
When Crops Are Marketable and
Ready Money 10 at Hand.

In the first Liberty Loan campaign,
many Of the farmers of the country
were not reached. and subscriptions
from rural committees were few.
There were several reasons for this,
tn foremost Of which was that the
loan was put out in the spring, when
they were busy with their crops, and
1t was difficult for the to
Interview them. Then, too, they had
to borrow money for their planting.
Now their crops are in. and at the
present high price of foodstuffs they
should have a large sum of money In
their hands. For a loan Of a portion
OF tina money. the Liberty Bond cam.
palgners are now appealing all over
the country. The various farm bu.
reaus and societies are cooperating
and good results are expected.
Albert r. Mann, dean of the New
York College Of Agriculture, is one of
those who have been active In this
work. Speaking Of the loan and the
farmers share in 1t. he said:
Wnen liberty came to America the
farmer helped to bring 1t. He bore
the gun. he contributed u%nsparinely
Of bis substance. he fed the armies.
In the present struggle for universal
liberty, am sure that he will do no
less. He has already made splendid
response to the demand for greater
food production. | look with conf.
dence on his generous contribution to
the Liberty Loan.
The first loan largely overlooked
the farmer-the efforts were n ce
trated In the cities. The second cam.
paign should give every opportunity
for farmers as individuals and In their
organizations to support the govern.
ment In Its financial program. It ls
the highest expression OF American,
ism that all the people should help
carry the common load in this crit
ical hour"

THE CHAMPION
READY FOR DUTY
Managers May Come, and Managers
May Go, But John Goes on
Forever, or Near
Iy So.

McGraw has been master OF the
Giants for sixteen years. In that time
the local American league club has
seen no less than eight managers
take up the white mans burden,
and yield it after bitter struggle.
with the great task of building a
winner still unfinished. Naturally
says the man in the crowd, "a bum
lot Of managers very likely" We're
they? Some Of the shrewdest, most
successful men in baseball have been
among those managers. There was
Clark Griffith, who toiled for five
years to make remnants grow in the
barren American league soil. There
was George T. Stallings, the miracle
man of baseball. He could produce
winner out Of lean materials at
Boston but he couldn't do 1t in New
York. There was Frank Chance,
fresh from his Iaurels. as peerless
leader of the Cubs. He struggled
with adversely In New York and gave
1t up as bad Job. Here are three
men of secure reputation and assur
ed ability who tried and failed to
equal the task that McGraw has so
brilliantly accomplished. Nor were
they handicapped by lack of funds.
In short, it Is doubtful If any club
was ever more lavish in the expendi.

COFFEY IS CANDIDATE
FOR COUNTY ASSESSOR.

VIM. T. Coffey, of Hickman,
authorizes the Courier TO an
nOunce him as a candidate for the
Democratic nomination of Asses
sor of Fulton county, subject, of
course, TO the regular primary.
In placing the name of Mr..
Coffee before the voters of Full
ton county, we feel that too much
cannot be said in his favor. This
gentleman-and he Is of the old
schools about 90 years old, and
has voted the Democratic ticket
since he was old enough, but new
or before has he asked for am
office of any kind. His entrance
into the present Face is largely the
result Of solicitation of friends !;
people who know and appreciate
him as a man and citizen. He
has lived in Hickman for the
past II years, earning his Hveli-
hood as a carpenter. just here, we
want to say that few men, as
badly crippled as he is, would
have had the determination and
pluck he has shown. Instead of
going TO their daily task on
crutehes, they would have been
living at the expense of the
county. Mr.. Cotfty injury is
tire result Of an accident twenty
two years ago, when he had a
leg broken in four places; blood
poison developed and has beer a
source of pain and aggravation
ever since. But, withal, he has
continued to make an honest, hon
orable living. He has not asked
Us to play up to the public sym
pathy' for his benefit; ON the
contrary, we mention this of our
accord, in order to show the
of the man.
His qualifications, we are sure,
are ample; his honesty and char
acter above reproach, and in all
he is what we call a
plain, eery-day, gentleman; full
Of energy, honesty of purpose,
good habits, an honorable citizen
and a man who would make our
county "a good assessor. Don t for
get him ON Saturday, Aug 4th.

JANUARY TERM CIRCUIT
COURT IS POSTPONED.

Judge Bunk Gardner arrived
Ia Hickman Monday to open the
regular term of Fulton Circuit
Court, but, owing TO the fact that
three members of the bar Will
Webb, T. Il. Powell and III. j.
MOCrman-cOuld not be present
ca account OF illness, coupled
with the fact that a heavy snow
made the roads almost impassa-
bic, the judge decided it would
serve the best interests Of the
court and all parties concerned to
postpone term at Hickman. He
viii, however, hold the regular
one week term at Fulton next
week.
Judge Gardner tells US to make
up for the loss of the January
term that he will hold court here
the last week in April, merging
into the regular May term; this
giving sufficient time to practi-
cally clean up the docket. 1t is
to say that jurors and
others are glad of the court de
cision. Blazing the trail IN an
snow-banked highway
is not exactly a thing of beauty
and a JOY forever.
