vERHINE MUST SERVE

Under an order issued by the ad-
jutant general of the United States
army, John Vernon Verhine of Union
City, who enlisted in the reserve
corps, was assigned to depot brigade
work, and who is now employed by
the Emergency Fleet Corporation at
Philadelphia, is commanded to report
for active service in the army. The
order was directed to the commander
of the department of the east at
New York. and directs that Verhine
be sent to Camp Mead, Nd, for as
signment to infantry.
The order also directs that this
case be expedited and that report
of it be made to the office of the ad-
jutant general.
verhine, it will be recalled, regis
tered in Obion county, his home, and
was called to the colors with others
from his county. Gov. Rye charged
that John X. Shields interfered with
the Obion county board in admins
tering the draft law in the case of
verhine and provided off1cial records
to show that, while the board wanted
verhine in the fighting ranks, Shields
had him placed in the employ Of the
Emergency Fleet Corporation. far
away from the fighting zone in
France. 1t was the sensation Of the
campaign and it was stated by ad-
herents Of Senator Shields that Yer
hine was in army service and that he
was not Stacker. The order Of the
adjutamt general reveals the exact
condition of Verhine.
1t is said that the Developments in
the Verhine case has caused the gov
to make an investigation of
the status Of other registrants who
have been placed in civilian work
and that others who may be seeking
to avoid active service may at once
be ordered to join the fighting ranks
OF the country.-Tennessean.

SOME ELECTION FIGURES

Official returns from two counties,
Lawrence and Decatur, have not
been received and seem TO have been
lost or misplaced somehow some
where. Both counties were carried
by Gov. Rye for United States SEN
ator, and would have further reduced
the majority of Senator Shields,
which was officially announced as
10,444 from returns of the SO coun-
ties reporting. The other county,
Grundy, held no primary election.
Unofiicial reports from Lawrence and
Decatur counties indicate that Sen
ator Shields majority in the state
was less than 10000.
Judge A. H. Roberts was officially
declared the Democratic nominee for
governor. His plurality in the SO
counties was 12,20O, and his majority
over his two opponents Aas $3.50.
The vote of the four big counties,
Shelby, Davidson, Hamilton and
Knox, containing the four big cities,
Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga
and Knoxville, have for years been
viewed with interest in all elections.
Shields carried all four OF the coun
ties-Shelby by a majority OF 2,O31,
for which Mayor Crump's popularity
is due much Of the credit; Davidson
by majority OF 2,75s, for which
Mayor Howse and his friends deserve
due credit: Hamilton by a majority
Of 203, for which much Is due to the
influence among Democrats Of the
mayor of Chattanooga and some well
placed federal patronage; Knox by
majority OF 1887, a county which
Senator Shields claims as one Of his
home counties, along with Granger
and Hamblen. Shields. total majori-
ty IA these four big counties is $3.50,
of which 4.790 are from Shelby and
Davidson. Shields majority in the
remaining 81 of the SO counties re-
ported is 3,514. There was total
vote of 122,0S4 cast for senator in the
90 counties, and a total OF .121,433
votes for governor. Judge Roberts
carried Hamilton and Knox but lost
Davidson and Shelby.-Tennessean.

T. P.L. COURSE COMPLETED

The Tennessee Polytechnic Insti-
tute, located at Cookeville, Central
Tennessee, with Prof. T. A. Early as
president, assisted by a dihgent and
working, scholastic faculty, has made
splendid record thi summer in the
training of 200 men for army service,
100 from Tennessee and a like num-
Der from Kentucky.
Prof. Early has been one of the
busiest men in the whole south. He
| is so much interested in the winning
of the war-and the T. P. l. is cer-
tainly doing its bit in that way-that
he has spared neither time nor mon
ey in making the term a grand sue
cess. The excellent result is posi-
tive proof of his and the faculty's
qualification.
The institution is located in one OF
the incest little cities of Central
Tennessee, with citizens who are hos
pitable and generous. They have
done all in their power, or at least.
within the scope of reason, to make
us feel at home, and as a member of
the Kentucky contingent, I am sure l
speak not amiss when, on the behalf
of the Kentucky detachment, thank
the faculty, officers, and citizens of
Cookeville for their instruction, train
ing, entertainment, and the many
courtesies during our stay here.
The four classes were RADIO opera
tiou, telephone linemen, auto me-
chanics, and carpenters, every class
of which has shown noted progress
in its respective line Of duty with
the radio class gaining a reputation
as the best school of its kind in the
Southland, which is largely due to
the efforts of the excellent instruct
or, Prof. E. L. Mitchell of Cookeville.
The class is composed of nineteen
young men from Kentucky, who have
worked hard, and every one of whom
is grateful ii Mr.. Mitchell for his
splendid work in radio. The term
has reached the close and the mem
bers of the class have all made good
and go from here to an advanced
school in radio for further instru,-
tion.
The radio class roll is: c. H. Da-
Wis, Jackson; Logan Hickerson, Har-
dinsburg; Geo. F. Turner, Campbells-
vile; Samuel o. Starrett, Maysville;

JUDGE Smith
HERE LAST NIGHT
PRESENTS HIS CLAIMS TO

Alleges UnUdrrdnted Increase
In Running the State
Government.

Judge l.. C.. Smith, candidate
for governor, spoke here Thurs
day night to a fair sized crowd,
and his speech was well re-
ceived. The Judge made a good
talk in a quiet way that carried
conviction to his hearers; he
made no attempt at flights of
oratory, but outlined his plat
form. In his attack on the ad-
ministration of Governor Chas.
H. Brough he gave facts and
figures to prove his assertions;
he especially attacked the ad-
ministration on the exercise of
the pardoning power and the
alleged increase of expense in
running the state government.
Judge Smith has many strong
supporters here and through
out the county.

FARMERS CALLED

All Farmers Asked to Attend
Meeting saturday.

A meeting of the Washington
Truck Growers Association has
been called by Mr.. Chas. Hill,
president, and o. E. Kolb, sec
retary, for Saturday afternoon
at 2 o'clock. Important busi-
ness is to be taken up and a full
attendance is desired.
One matter to be taken up at
the meeting of the truck grow
ers is proposition to plant a
considerable acreage to castor
beans, The government is re-
questing the farmers to grow
these beans, as the only lubri-
cant used on aeroplanes is ex-
tracted from them. The gov
ernment proposes TO pay $3.50
per bushel for them.
Another important matter to
be taken up will be to secure re-
ports from all farmers in the
Washington Special school dist.
on the acreage planted to the
various crops. The govern
ment is asking for this informa-
tion at once, and all who have
not given a census of their
crops should do so at this meet
ing.

HUNS FAIL IN DETECTIVES

The latest news from the bat
tie line is to the effect that the
Germans, having been defeated
in every phase of the battle
around Ypres, have attempted
no further attack in force.
What activity there was in
the region was carried out by
the British and French, both of
whom have materially improv-
ed their positions. On both sec
tors ground has been captured
and prisoners taken.
The pause is apparently not
the end of the German attempt
to crack the allied line; all "a
long the front the big guns are
roaring and shells of all cali
bers are plowing the ground in
the arreas far behind them and
fresh German reserves, to take
the place of the thousands that
have been killed and captured,
are being hurried to the front.
Advices from the British front
in Flanders are that another
furious drive by Won Arnin is
in immediate prospect. Kaiser
Bill has been to the front deliv-
ering flamboyant speeches to
his troops in an endeavor to
spur them on to victory.
British and French artillery
is sending a rain of shells on
KENNEL hill, the chief point of
vantage gained by the Germans
in the Ypres sector. Thus far
the allied guns have prevented
all attempts by the enemy to
reinforce his men at this point,
and there is a possibility of this
position proving a death trap to
! the German Sroops occupying
it. bN>

Governor Chas. H. Brough
addressed the people of Hemp
stead county at Washington on
/, the Third Liberty Loan last
Sunday afternoon at $3.50 o.
clock. The Governor came
down from Nashville on a rail-
road motor car Sunday after
noon, arriving just few min
utes before the speaking. The
attendance at the speaking was
estimated anywhere from 1000
: to 1,5OO people, but there would
have been many more if it had
not rained Saturday night,
leaving the roads in bad condi-
Z tion for automobile travel.
Dwight Blake's band of Hope
was here to help welcome the
Governor.
J The Governor spoke for
about an hour on subjects that
Swere close to hearts of the peo-
pie and all were eager to hear.
They were advised of the ne
eessity for the buying of Liber-
ty bonds and of each individual
doing his best to help win the
twar, which he was satisfied was
; not going to be an easy task,
though, according to the Gov
ernor, there was no manner of
doubt about its being done. The

Z ty of our soldiers, both while
they were going to France and
1while they were over there, and
She also told of some of the i'm

lalone by the administration to
in the war. He suggested
hings that should be done and
.hers being done that should
spntinue, for we know not how
bng, but the work must go on.
After finishing his speech
lhe Governor mingled with the
rcrowd and met a great many

, by auto for Hope, where he
made a talk Sunday night.
Tolbert Field of Hope, coun-
ty chairman of the Liberty
Loan Committee, was present
at the speaking here last Sun
day afternoon and succeeded in
effecting the sale of sufficient
! Liberty bonds to put Hemp
stead county "over the top"
which announcement was made
from the speakers stand as
soon as the figures reached the
quota for the county. The an
nouncement was received with
muC,>.r 'thusiasm by the large

number of people present. At
the meeting $1O,000.00 was sub
scribed, about $S,00O.O0 of
which was from Ozan township.
AT the time of going to press,
all townships of the county ex-
cept Ozan township had reach
ed their quota and the commit
tee says that this township will
go over his week. The quota
for the township is $40,000.00
and sales to date amount to
$50, 100000, leaving a deficit of
$6,OOO.OO.
A rally was held at Ozan last
Tuesday night in an effort to
put this township over. C. N.
Trimble, township chairman,
was present and Hon. Steve
Carrigan made a strong appeal
for the purchase of bonds. ST.
