LAND OF KOSSUTH
Mixed Races Make Up Population
Of Hungary.
Country Long Under German and
Austrian Domination Until Magyars
Secured Political Emancipation
Has Immense Mineral Riches.

Hungary has population of 10000.
600 The area of Hungary is about
equal to that of the state of New
Mexico.
Hungary is unusually rich in It's
mineral deposits. It's mines contain
almost inexhaustible quantities OF
gold, silver lead, copper, iron. coal
and rock salt.
Hungary. like Austria, is Inhabited
by several distinct races, but since
the ninth century. when the Magyars
invaded the region from Asia and
conquered It, they have controlled the
government.
Self-government through parliament
in Hungary is of ancient origin, being
founded upon chatter called the
Golden Bull, which dates back to 1000,
md IS thus almost contemporary with
the Magma Charta of England.
Budapest, the capital city Of Hun
gary, consists OF the sister towns If
Buda and Pest. Lying on either side
of the Danube, Just at that point

spreads itself out over the nat sandy

trian thralldom and secured their po-
litical emancipation. Then German
went to the wall, and today there are
millions in Hungary wholly ignorant
of the German language.
The great national hero of Hungary
was Louis Kossuth, whose memory IA
revered by Hungarians as that OF
Washington is revered by the people
of the United States. Kossu,h visited
America in 1871, and it is matter OF
history that no foreigner save Lafay-
cite ever received at the hands Of the
American people Sucn marks OF cS-
teen as were bestowed on the Hun
garian exile. After the failure of the
Hungarian revolution, of which he was
the leader, in 1910, Kossuth sought
refuge in Turkey Austria and Russia
demanded his eXtradition, but the
Porte, resisting all threats. declined
to give him up, in which attitude
Turkey was supported by England and
France. At length the intervention of
England and the United States secured
mis- liberation, and at the beginning
of September, 1851, he was permitted
TO avail himself of the invitation Of
the United States to come TO America
as the guest of the nation. In New
York; where he landed, he was en-.
received. He attended
and received deputations in
Baltimore, Washington,
Boston and numerous other places. At
the national capital a great banquet
was given in his honor by the members
Of congress.

counties and to get the benefit OF the
Government aid that will come to US,
amounting to $12,500.00, which
would otherwise have been lost en-
tirely. 1t is necessary to finish this
road by June 1st. In the meantime, it
is my purpose to have different
squads at work from time to time on
the various other roads. Every per-
manently constructed road will re-
quire very little more work by the
County to keep them in good condi-
tion-thus enabling me to give my
attention to the other roads entirely.
The people of this County are pa
triotic, as was shown by the liberal
response to the various war loans,
and now, Peace is restored to us, we
have great opportunity and can af-
ford to develop the County. There
is no better way to do this than by
building good roads. In other words,
good roads benefit all people ire
spective of their walk in life.
Don't say that l have done as much
as my neighbor on roads, but say
that l will try to do more than my
neighbor.
Remember, that this suggestion is
not compulsory on anybody, but
watch my prediction, that those who
have done and will do, the least on
the roads, will have the most to say
against this system. 1t will possibly
be necessary to increase take on
property if the plans I suggest are
not successful, but the more your aid

About six months ago, at time

branch of the naval or military SER
vice, four splendid young men, Hamp

Drunson and Willie Bush, were in
Quoted as volunteers under call for
men to go to Vancouver, Washington
TO perform a special service for the
government. The journey of 5000
miles required nearly week. After
undergoing many and varied expert
ences in the military service on the
Pacific coast, all of these young men
have secured honorable discharges
and reached their homes safely Sun
day. They were sent from Vancouver
TO the camp near Atlanta to be mus
tered out OF service, having reached
Atlanta about 4 week ago. The eli
mate OF the northwest and the treat
mcnt which "Uncle Sam" gave them
has transformed them into strong, ro-
bust men of athletic build. No young
men have been more warmly wei
coined upon their Homecoming than
this quartette Of soldier boys from
the far-oi' northwest.

The less the increase will have to be.
| have heard it rumored, no doubt
for the purpose Of injuring me, that
the cost Of maintaining the chain
Gang and building the roads has in
crea2ad during my administration,
and that the County will be in debt,
without even trying to explain why
the increase Of cost, which l will not
for one moment try to deny. If you
will stop for moment, and think
what the prices of everything in con-
vict line, as machinery, food for man
and beast and labor, in fact every
thing used in this County has increas-
ed during my administration three
fold, in fact dollar will only buy as
much as 33 1-3 cents would in 1914,
so it will take three dollars where it
used to take one to meet the same re-
quirement. Still, the appropriations
for the County have not been increas
ed. So you can readily see that a
debt of three dollars to-day is no
more than one dollar in 1914. l ask
this question-"What man amongst
you, it matters not what your occu-
patton may be, can say that it has
not cost you three times as much to
DO business as it did prior to 1914?"
Under these circumstances, Edge
field County has received full value
for every dollar expended, unless,
there has been some imposition by
those people filling up holes in the
road, and I have given notice that
this kind of work will not be paid for
unless especially authorized by the
Supervisor.

His Canidacy for the Senate.
To My Friends and Fellow Citizens
of Edgefeld County:
1t is well known that ! had retired
from politics, and did not contem-
plate that conditions would arise
which would incline me to review my
conclusion. But since the death of
our loyal and faithful State Senator,
Hon. B. E. Nicholson, have been
urged by many citizens to consent to
take up his work in the Senate just
where he left it.
1 feel that it is my duty to Sena-
tor Nicholson, and to the people Of
Edgefield county to undertake to per-
form the service and discharge the
obligations which he had assumed; !;
and if the people Of our county de-
sire that l shall perform this service
and discharge the duties that were
incumbent upon him, I will do so to
the best of my ability.
Therefore, I hereby announce that
l am a canidate for the State Senate
for the unexpired term of the late
Senator B. E. Nicholson, and shall be
deeply grateful if the people of the
county shall approve of this conclu-
sion.
Very Respectfully,
