Famous Brooklyn Bridge.

Camp Totten, N. Y, June /, 1913
Dear Mr., Editor and Friends of Hay
wood County,
We arrived here o. K. about two
weeks ago. This is a fine place. At
present we are in an old hotel or inn
on the seward side of Long Island.
Ships of all sizes may be seen by mere
ly putting your head out Of the window
This morning l was up at headquar-
tiers and while there two submarine
chasers passed, going to, open sea.
There is large mine layer anchored
about 200 yards from the inn. Our
trip from jefferson barracks was won-
derful. There were 245 in our train
and of course we were given the right
of way. The telegraph poles flew past
too fast to count. At Cleveland and
Buffalo we marched around The city,
and took in all the sights. The scene
ry along the Hudson was wonderful.
The Catskill mountains, where old Rip
van Wrinkle took his long sleep are
wonderful. The peaks were covered
with mist, which added immensely to
their beauty. Arriving in New York
we marched aboard the Niagara, for
the trip there from the prov Of the
boat / had my first glimpse Of New
York proper. 1t certainly was an inn

across the bay to view the huge tow

Fritz then conceives this plot to place
Louise in his power:
He forces Matilde, her foster sister, TO
write note saying that there is i'll
ness in the family and that she needs
her. He encloses a pass through the
lines for Louise, to which he FORCES
Won Knorr's name. Louise suspects
nothing. Rudolph follows her. As
Louise enters the house, Won Meyring
hides behind a door. 0 moment af-
terward, Rudolph comes. Louise sees
Immediately that she is the victim of
a scheme but thinks Rudolph engineer
ed it. Won Knorr, drink and lust
crazed, seizes her. They struggle.
He strikes her down unconscious. Half
dazed, he staggers from the room.
Outside he looks up at the window.
The silhouette of Won Meyring on the
glass brings him to his senses. Ru-
aolph kills Fritz, then presents him
self before his general for courtmar-

the famous Brooklyn bridge. Boats
of all descriptions were constantly
lodging in and out about the larger
ones. A large ocean liner was being
towed to the pier as we went by. We
finally landed and put aboard an cleo.

POLITICAL CAMPAIGN
BEGINS TO WARM UP
Candidates for August Primary Are
Getting More Active.

The signs of the times indicate that
the political campaign in Tennessee
this summer is not to be a tame at
fair or devoid of interest, as has been
suggested. At least two of the can
didates for the office of governor have
declared that special attention should
be given to affairs Of state, and the
political situation is warming up in
a manner that bids fair to wax warm
before the date of the primary in Au-
gust /.
Clyde Shropshire formally opened
his campaign with speech and rally
at Camden Saturday, and Austin Peay
began his speaking campaign Tuesday
at Trenton, both these candidates for
governor having announced speaking
dates for several days in various parts
of the state within the next two weeks
A. H. Roberts has so far given no in
timation as to when he shall be found
on the busting, but that he will be
iiSaIu rum SOoH 10 OSltdlH.
Those who profess to be able to read
the handwriting on the political wall
predict that the waters will be consid-
erably troubled by the entry into the
contest for governor at the eleventh
hour Of George L. Berry, for whom his
friends filed a nomination petition late
Friday evening. Mr. Berry has been
in France and England with labor
committee for a number of weeks past
and arrived in New York Saturday.
The senatorial contest has become
a triangle by Gov. Tom C. Rye announ-
cling his design to sojourn a while in
the United States Senate. His an
nouncement was followed by rumors
Of the withdrawal of Colonel Gates,
which was denied and repudiated by
Gates, who publicly declared that there
were absolutely no grounds for such
statement, and that he preferred to
conduct his own campaign and make
MS own announcements without any
one intermeddIng.

THRIFT STAMP DRIVE
JUNE TWENTY-EIGHTH
War Savings Conference Held in Mem
phis, with Much Enthusiasm Mani
feet: Tennessee to raise 100000
as her Quota: Haywood County's
Part s55O,oOe.

The government at Washington has
reached the point where it no longer
says to the people of America, "Will
you do your part toward raising the
required quota of war savings
stamps. Now, instead of saying ''Will
your" Washington says "You must, >
and if you fail to respond, then WASH
ington intends to know the reason
why.
That is the way the situation APP
pears to the men in charge of the COM
ing war savings drive, which takes
place June %. And that is the way
in which speaker after speaker ex-
pressed himself at the conference held
in Memphis at Hotel Chisca Monday.
1t was a great conference. Practical
ly every county in West Tennessee was
represented, Hardly chairman was
absent.
7. R. Preston, state director of war
savings, said it was as we'll attended
and enthusiastic a meeting as has been
held in the state.
At first there may have been few
doubtful ones present, few who
couldn't quite see how it was possible
to induce the people in this section
to respond literally enough to get the
entire quota pledged in one day. But
before the conference closed one chair
man after another stated that he Yves
going home filled with fresh enthusi-
asm and fired with the determination
to send his county over the top in the
coming drive.
Dwight M. Armstrong, chairman of
war savings for Shelby county, pre-
sided at the meeting and introduced
the speakers.
Mr.. Preston outlined the plan adop-
ted by the government and commonly
known as the Nebraska plan. Mr..
Preston states that Tennessee heads
the list in the zone in which it is locat-
ed.
R. NJ. Green, assistant state director
of publicity, then outlined the best
plan to keep the news before the peo-
pie, giving suggestions in regard to
the advertising to be done, etc. Sam

SAYS CANDIDATES
MUST TAKE STAND
ON DRY LAW ISSUE

Nashville, June 4-"Until the prb-
lens of liquor law enforcement are
solved and the remedies evolved and
put into operation" declared DR.. J. D.
McAlister, president Of the Tennessee
Antisaaloon league, in an interview
here, "and until the state ratities the
constitutional amendment, the prohl-
bition question will not be a settled is
sue in Tennessee, and do not believe
any candidate can get by in the am
ing primary merely by waving this
as a settled question"
DR.. McAlister said he had been much
interested in the statements of all can
didates in the 1918 political contests
as to their positions on the liquor cues
ton. He wanted it strictly understood
that he is not indorsing any particu-
lar candidate at present
He said he has not yet decided whath
err to PROFOUND series Of pertinent
questions to each candidate respect
ing his views OH the liquor question, or
that their statements on the matter
would be published and distributed.
Prohibition is a settled policy of
the government, said Dir. McAliste,.
but it is nonsense to consider enforce
ment of the law settled issue. The
liquor forces are now actively engaged
in spreading their propaganda, he as.
serted, and are sending their litera-
ture to members of the general assem-
by, and candidates for election to that
body. He feels that, like the war IN
Europe, the fight must be carried to
an absolute victorious finish before
peace terms are considered.

SCENE LAND IN
LIBERTY THEATRE EsDAY JUNE H. MATINEE AND NIGHT

Louise de Ciron, of an impoverished
French family of noble blood, bids
farewell to her brother, Pail, leaving
for the front to join his regiment as a
captain.
In Germany, at the same time, Col.
Rudolph Won Knorr, an Alsatian, de-
parts for the Bavarian Guards.
Just as Marie, Louise's maid is ieal-
Gus of her mistress, so is Capt. Fritz
Won Meyring envious of his superior,
Col. Won Knorr.
Hard fighting weeks pass. The
troops of which Won Knorr is leader
break through a sector of the French
front. Rudolph billets himself, his
staff in the de Ciron chateau, where
Louise, disdaining to flee bssDre, has
remained. Marie and Fritz become
friendly at once. Rudolph protests
his love for Louise but she spurns his
pleas. Fritz eyes Louise avidly-and
thus stirs Marie's hatred for Louise.
