LAUNCH FOURTH
LIBERTY LOAN
Sixth District Launches Campaign
This Week But Actual Selling
Begins September 2S.

Atlanta, August 4.-The campaign
for the fourth Liberty Loan in the
Sixth Federal Reserve District will be
launched this week. While the actual
selling campaign will not begin until
September %, closing October 10,
preparatory work will be carried on in
every county on much broader scale
than therefore, because the next bond
issue will be the largest of all.
Plans for the campaign were made
at two days conference of Zone
Chairmen and Field Representatives
here August 8 and 10, by officials
from Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Ten
nessee, Mississippi and Louisiana.
Honor flags for the community
oversubscribing its quota will be a.
warded, but will be required not only
to reach its allotment of subscriptions
but also have certain number OF
tax payers represented among the
subscribers.
This conference will be followed by
one in each zone, attended by the
county chairmen, to put into operat-
ion the plans decided upon.

JULY BREAKS RECORD IN SALE
OF WAR SAVINGS STAMPS.
Bureau of Printing Stops Making
Postage Stamps to Supply the
Demand Created.

July has broken previous monthly
sales of War Savings Stamps. Inc
cash receipts in the Treasury De-
partments from the sale OF Inrl1t
and War Savings Stamps for the
month of July totals S211 ,417,94z. ol.
This represents an investment ana d
loan to the Government at the aver
ace rate of $500 for every man, wo-
man and child in America.
So great has been the sales OF war
Savings Stamps since July |, that
the Bureau of Printing and EngraV-
mo at Washington has had to stop
making postage stamps all togetner
and direct its efforts to the making
of Thrift and War Saving Ttamps.
Another evidence that War savings
Stamps have become popular IS the
report made by the National head
Quarters of the Boy Scouts OF Am
erica to the effect that from July | te
| 10th. 193,85O Red Postcards were re
ceived. showing a daily average sale
| of $4,000 by the Scouts. While
large number of the cards repre-
sent sales for 500 or more, tn'
average was $40 or over card.
From the beginning of the War Saw
ings campaign and up to and 1nciud
;n9 Julv 81 the total receipts from
+he saIa of War Savings Securitie
are S518,51O,334.03, this represent

Of S624,711,245.

GOVERNOR B|LBO'S ELECTION CERTAIN. +.

al efforts of Governor BiIbo.
80. Enlargement and additional
support of the State Board of Health
which is doing so much for the
health of the people by giving them
free of charge treatment for Ra-
bies and furnishing them typhoid vac
cine, aside from saving hundred of
lives. ~
There are many other splendid
laws which have been passed during
Governor Bilbo's administration, but
those named are sufficient to com
| mand the respect and confidence of
all classes of people. AS a legisla-
tor, as Chief Executive, his constit-
uents have learned to rely implicitly
on his energy, ability, industry and
honesty in attending promptly to all
the business that belong to his po-
sition
One of Governor Bilbo's opponents
Mr.. Johnson, ridicules the idea
that Governor Bilbos should have any
credit for the great Mississippi Indus
trial and Training School at Colum-
bia, and argues that the people of
Marion county paid fifty-fve thous-
and dollars and three thousand acres
of land for it. True, but not until
the Legislature had approved the
Governors recommendation that
law be passed authorizing the es-
tablishment of such a school, and not
until the State had appropriated
twenty-five thousand dollars to pay
the initial cost. The passage of the
law through the Governors infu-
ence, made it possible for the good
old county of Marion to secure the
location by copetitive bidding. No
Bilbo, no law No law, no school!
The same argument holds good with
reference to the South Mississippi
Charity Hospital at Laurel. Gov.
Bilbo did not, of course, build the
hospital, but it was largely through
his influence that the law was passed
and the money appropriated to estab-
lish the institution. No Bilbo, no law.
No law, no hospital. No hospital
what?
He has served the State with fl
deity and ability and his splendid
oratory has been discordant music
to the ears of the envious foes, but 1t
has pierced with a ringing melody
the ears of his countrymen and struck
a responsive chord at the fireside of
every home He is possessed with
a large heart, and his sympathies are
with the people, and he serves them
with no half-hearted devotion. Their
cause is his own, and in his contest
for Congress he is pleading, the
cause of the people with all the
energy of mind and body, and no
man ever possessed a more earnest
and sincere desire to serve well and
faithfully his constituents and his
country. Under the guidance of Di-
vine Providence he awaits the verdict
Of the people and that verdict will
be: "Well done, good and faithful

in the district give him ma jority all in the
FIRST primary. Calls upon his friends in every county
to remain active and alert until votes counted.
Judge Johnson's campaign headquarters has
been in close touch with every county in the district
this week, and the unanimous opinion is that is his
friends will continue active and alert until August
2Oth just few days off, victory will be ours in the
first primary. This is not guess work. but this con-
clusion is arrived at by checking carefully returns
from every nook and corner Of the district
This has been hard fight, but Judge Johnson
has not spared himself, nor permitted his campaign
organization to get away from the high ground on
which he first pitched his campaign. He wants to
win this election, for it is the ambition OF his lie
and he believes that he accomplish certain Things
which will be of peranent benefit to the district
but in his zeal to he lost sight OF the
fact that victory through craft cunning or de-
cet is worse than defeat and that he had rather go
down in defeat on August the 10th, making clean,
honest and constructive campaign, than to WIN on
false issues, Misrepresentation and election prom
iseS.
One of the biggest assets of Judge Johnson has
been the clean campaign he has conducted This
does not mean that he has failed to properly char
acterize where necessary but he has not descended
to personalities discussion of those things IN
which the people Of the district have no interest
The fight in this campaign is against Judge
Johnson for. all know that he is in the lead. Help
win the election in the first primary. For this is
what is going to be done.
Judge johnson greatly appreciates the work
that has been done for him in this campaign by his
friends He has not had much time in which to talk
to them, or opportunity to thank them in person for
he has been going night and day. But there is not
more appreciative in the state than Judge Jonn-
son and he will never forget those who are helping
him in this fight.
Only few more days remain in which to work
So let us all keep busy, especially on the day OF the
election If you can work at the polls or among
YOUR friends on the day of election it will count for
much. IF there are those who live some distance
from the nolls and it is not convenient for them to
90. help get them there, if you do so.
In this and many other ways look and everyone
can help materially during the closing days. We
warn the people to beware of the campaign liars.

other things. as stated above. lower
ing the roof on a building OF that size,
and probably facing the whole struc-
ture with a new wall Because Of this
we felt that IL would be difncult to &c,
bids that would not err. either on the
side Of being too high for the county.
or too low TO warrant the builder In
properly carrying out the work we,
therefore. adopted the plan OF having
the work done on a commission basis,
on which plan the county would pay
the actual cost Of the work, plus a
reasonable commission TO the builder.
We, therefore. requested each bidder 10
furnish the architect with a list Of the
names Of his sub-bidders and Of the
amount Of the bid Of each, as well as
with his estimate Of the cost Of the
labor. We felt that, not only because
OF the character Of the work. but also
because OF the present abnormal con-
ditlons, this would be the safest way Of
insurng the best work at a reasonable
cost to the county. To avoid an eX-
/ cessive cost, however, we asked that
/ the bids include a maximum figure.
beyond which no expense could be
charged 10 the county. In response to
our request for bids we received the
following, which includes the cost OF
: Installing the heating plant.

After going over the details OF these
bids with the architects with the great

finally awarded the contract, pursuant
10 the authority granted us by a reso-
luton passed by this body on the third
day Of April. A. d. 1917. to r. c. Bal

The maximum figure OF these build.
