HiLI.MAN WILL. run
-in"crsoni":.S Report Senator Will of.
fer for Reelection

Senator Tillman, says the Anderson
DALEY Mail, is going to offer for re-
election to the United States Senate
and he does not intend to make the
campaign throughout South Carolina
this summer. according to a party of
Andersonians who were in Washing
ton few days ago on business and
who dropped in the senator's office to
speak to him before they left the cap
ital
The first matter mentioned by the
senator to his Anderson visitors was
the exchange of letters between For
mer Senator John l.. McLaurin and
certain members of the Anderson
county Legislative delegation. Senator
McLauIinS last letter had Just ap-
pcared IL !he South Carolina ncwspa-
perS.
Asked ~ lie was going 10 make re-
ply 10 senator McLaurin'S reference
10 him in his first letter, Senator Till
man leaned back in his desk chair
and said that he was nul su;.g 10
make reply: that he was gong to
treat Senator McLaurin with silent
ContciLDt which he deserves.
Senator Tillman declared that he is
going to offer for reelection and add
ed that because of his long expert
cncc and especially under conditions
existing at present, he believes he is
! better fitted to serve the people OF
South Carolina in the Senate than
any other. He said that he intends
to address the voters of the State
through the newspapers. and that he
intends to stay on the job in Wash
ington. where he is needed all the
/ time.
, Senator Tillman is chairman of the
naval committee of the Senate and he
is one of the busiest men in Wash
ington today. When the Anderson
ians called on him he had a great
mass OF correspondence before him
on his desk, and a number of clerks
and stenographers were hard at work
keeping up with him.
I me senator appeared to be in good
health, so the Andersonians say, al
though it could be seen that the
stenuous session of Congress and
his heavy work in his Office had IA
ugued him to some extent.
In addition to keeping up with his
work in Washington Senator Tillman
Is keeping in close touch with politi-
cal conditions in South Carolina. He
is informed on all political moves
made recently, and seems to be en-
joying most Of them.

There is no reason, for instance
why unused land in Dillon county
should not be taxed sufficiently to
force it into use, either by the men
who hold it for speculation or by
somebody who will buy it from them.
1t is different with land in use
that's earning something through
what it produces. enabling it to pay
taxes; such land, blythe way, should
not be forced to pay more than its
just share of taxes because unused
land is paying less than it's just share.
When we consider the millions of
acres of unused land in the United
States. and then on the other hand
consider the great need for it's cul
tvation to produce foodstuffs that
we so sorely need. it is evident that
it would be an advantage to everyone
in the nation if this idle land were
forced into use.

sia, diVids Id or more
political factions, lh each faction
clamoring for power over the other.
Lenine and Trotzky put themselves
at the head of the strongest faction,
but the government they tried to
build up was founded on false prom
ises and double-dealing and it's col
lapse was inevitable. There is no
hope for the unfortunate republic
until it reaches the point of exhaus-
ton. When its people have dc.incd
the cup of bitterness to the dregs
and such arch conspirators as Len
inc and Trotzky are driven out the
time will be ripe for some real lead
er who purposes well to step in and
build up government that will en-
dure. Until this time comes there
is not much hope for Russia and in
terference by the allied governments
will only add to the troubles of this
nation.

AUTOS ADD TO LAND VALUES

Since the advent of automobiles
more than IS year has been added
TO the value of every parcel of land
n the county ever passed by ma
chine.
This land Is more valuable because
Il In more accessible by auto. This
cheap and easy transportation sys-
tenn for men and goods is making it's
influence felt on land throughout
the entire rural sections of the Unit
ed States.
We tar automobile owners and tax
about everything else-only land
values are not taxed adequately.
A man who puts up a house is
taxed that much more-which ap-
proximates q fine. He Is fined for
the business he does, the income he
makes.
That's all right-there is no kick
coming from any reasonable man ex-
cept that the small man pays most of
the taxes.
Justice, however, demands that
the unearned increment put on land
many times unused land-by the
\ corspunity be partly recovered by

Submarine Boat Plant
Is Rid OF Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes in the vicinity of the
Submarine Boat Corporation plant,
Newark, N. j., have been exterml-
mated, according to Speed-Up, which
publishes results of an examination
on June 10, when no mosquitoes
were found in tests conducted by the
plant experts, and none was seen or
felt by either of two men making the
tests. The work is in charge of DR..
H. H. Satchwell. Daily inspections
have been made and oil applied
wherever necessary.
On June 7,sfrom 7:3e until 10 p.
M, two men made tests of the plant
for number and variety of mosqui-
toe, using glass tubes containg cyan
ide of potash. Only seven mosquitoes
were found by both men IN the entire
period. On June 8 similar test was
made and no mosquitoes were found.
Tests on June 10, IL, IA and II also
failed to disclose any Of the pests,
and it is considered sufficient evil
dence that they have been entirely
eliminated.

Wherein The Benefit

We have often wondered
wherein was the benefit in per-
mitting cattle. particularly
COWS and horses, to roam the
public roads at large. If one
were to suggest the enactment
of a parish ordinance or state
law to prohibit the roaming at
large of COWS and horses there
would be no end of protest and
commendation heaped upon
him. Since we have been kids,
we can best identify some loca-
tions in this parish by referr-
ing to it as the place or places
you will always find cows idling
at night, or during the day.
When it is taken into consider
alton that most of the people
IN the country, owning cattle
have large pastures, it is pass
ed understanding how they pre-
fer not keeping them on their
own premises. With the con-
slant traffic Of automobiles and
trucks over our highways, and
the number of cattles on the
roads which get no benefit
whatever by roaming at large
# is incomprehensible how peo-
ple would not want to keep them
enclosed rather than permit
them to roam at large. Moth
