JUDGE CHARLES LEE cRUM.

/ The first entry into the Congress
sional race for this District, which
we have been authorized to announce
| in the Reporter, is that of Judge
Charles Lee Crum, of New Albany.
His name and card appeared in last
weeks issue, but we deferred edi-
torial reference to it till this week.
/ We have never known Judge
Crum personally, but his public ca
reer has been such as to attract the
attention and admiration of the citi-
zens. not only of Union County, bat
of the whole District, and even the
state.
Having prepared himself for the
practice of law, he started Non his
professional Journey about thirty
wears ago, locating at New Albany,
where he still holds his office. Born
and reared in the district. and being
one Of those who are spoken of as
good MIXER" it is no wonder that
Judge Crum had honors placed up
on him early in his career. In 1900
and 1902 he represented his county
in the Legislature, and later was ap-
pointed to serve as Special Court
(Circuit) Judge, and Special Chan
cellor. at different times, by the last
four Observation-Disclosures, Noel,
Brewer and Bilbo, and is now serv-
ing his district as Circuit Judge by
virtue of the suffrages of the peo-
pie. At the end of the present
round of his courts, Judge Crum
said, in his card published last week,
that he would resign the judgeship
and give his whole time to a canvass
of every county in the District when
he hopes to meet the people and ex-
plain his position upon national af-
fairs.
Notwithstanding his professional
life. Judge Crum has always been
interested in EARNINGS and in this
way, as well as by his personal asso-
Citations has been intimately connect
ed with the agricultural interests of
the State.
Judge Crum places his candidacy
in the hands of the Democratic par
ty, for such disposition as they may
accord it in the August primary
election.-Southen Reporter.

APRIL VOICES.

The lark with her breast to the blue
sang sweet,
AS the day in the east was dawnine.
Her song wind-swept, on sunbeams
danced,
Down the aisles of the beautiful
morning.
The brook ran swift in the warm
sunlight,
Her waves over pebbles low were
telling,
A song age-old, yet once more new.
With sweet words she was patiently
spelling.
The lily appraised from the soft
brown earth,
Her dew-laden petals were summing,
In glory arrayed, her faith displayed
Made rare music, of life's silent
cunning.
O bird, O brook, o lily bloom
What lessons of life you are teach
ing,
0 singing, laughing, smiling three,
What far-visioned heights you are
reaching.

KU KLUX RIDERS
DOWN IN PEE DEE,
NEGROES GET WARNING TO &C
TO WORK.
Farmers Cut Prices for Cotton
Picking at Suggestion OF
White Caps.

Florence, Oct. 15.-White caps,
200 strong, with horses and riders
clad in the Ku hlux garb, rode into
Lake City Thursday night and as a
result the cotton fields next day were
thick with cotton pickers and the
housewives of Lake City have all the
help in the way Of cooks and wash
erwomen they desire. Farmers now
see way out Of the ruin which faced
them by the deterioration OF cotton
turning blue in the fields for the lack
of pickcrs. The white caps appeared
in the town OF Lake City about l
o'clock Thursday night. First they
called on some farmers who had been
paying as much as sl.50 hundred
pounds for picking cotton and sug-
eested to them that this was too
much. The price fell to 81 IN a
twinliing. Then the cavalcade pro-
cceded to the negro section and threw
out severa! hints to the cffec5 that
more work and less loafing among
the negroes Of that section would
perhaps be good thing. Hence the
the new hordes Of pickers and the
multitude of cooks and washers to-
day. Mayor W. H. Whitehead was
also visited. 1t was then about 2
o'clock in the morning. The mayor
came 10 his door and was told that
he should enforce the vagrancy laws
more vigorously. Mayor Whitehead
responded by declaring that he had
attempted to enforce these laws but
his efforts had been met with severe
criticism from some quarters, and
that to make the laws more effective
he must have the undivided support
Of the community. From The looks
of things last nigh. the mayor is sure
Ct this support in future.
The white caps went about their
business calmly and quietly. There
was no evidence OF any intention to
offer violence to any Of the many
persons visited, but they meant busi-
ness just the same.

the treasury on May 10.
Mr.. Meyers statement was made
in reply to telegram from George
R. James of Memphis. Tenn, asking
advice as to what help the corpora
ton could be at this time and how
the money could be raised.
Mr.. James declared the situation
relative to the cotton producer and
the people dependent upon cotton as
a basis for financing is most deplor-
able and that lack of banking fa-
cilities at this time will sacrifice the
cotton producer and his dependents
and greatly benefit the speculator.
Mr.. Meyer reviewed the work OF
the corporation in aiding exports and
said that when it was compelled to
suspend it had applications involving
many millions of dollars worth of
various commodities for export. The
secretaries decision to suspend the
corporations activities was strongly
opposed by substantial part of the
board of directors, Mr.. Meyer said.
"Money for the war finance cor
poration, in my opinion" he stated,
could now be raised to the extent
of $250,000,O00 to s500,000,000 by
the issue of one year war finance cor
poration bonds bearing 6 per cent.
interest with a small discount or sell
::g commission.
"The war finance corporation issue
s200,000,O00 of one year 5 per cent.
notes in April, 1919, to provide funds
to take care Of eventual emergency
requirements made necessary by the
failure of congress to pass the rail-
road appropriation. These notes
were paid off or or before maturity.
In my opinion, it would be possible
to raise large amounts IN, the same
investment market at this time with
out calling upon the treasury for
funds and with the result Of moving
our crops and relieving the farmers
and the breaks"

LUTHERANS WIN
FROM METHODISTS
Newberry Defeats Woford in Close
Game.
The State.

The State.
Newberry, Oct. 15.--The New
! berry Indians defeated Woford here
this afternoon in an exciting game of
football by the score of 9 to Z. The
Lutherans outplayed the Wofford
eleven throughout most Of the game
and in the last half the Newberrians
kept the pigskin in the visitors ter
ritory the entire time. During the
game Newberry made numerous long
gains by means Of forward passes
and a few runs. Wofford made most
of it's gains through the line and this
failed in the last half when the Lu-
therans defense stiffened. Newberry
made a count in the first quarter
when Blystone went through the line
for touchdown. Wofford made its
touchdown in the second quarter.
Newberry won in the fourth quarter
by means of a safety when Turnip-
seed was downed behind his own goal
line after fumbling the bail in an
effort to punt. The Wofford quarter
was injured on this play and had to
retire from the game. Blystone,
Thomas, Ballentine and Bender play
ed the best game for Newberry while
Turnipseed and Berry did the best
work for Wofford. Blystone's rare
judgment at quarter has been the
feature of all of Newberry's games

Chairman OF Democratic National
Committee Says Stampede
Has Begun.

New York, Oct. 15.-George
White, chairman OF The Democratic
nationa! committee, last night issued
statement in which he said that
eleventh hour plans Of the Republi-
cans would fail to check the Rapub-
lican and independent stamped, to
Governor Cox, when has already be-
gun
"The Republican campaign. is in
disorder" Mr.. White declared.
"Party ranks have been broken.

with the party because they have be-
licved that it s:eod fo" high p::ac:-
pies a.. deserving it.

o,.t eleventh hour p!ars to regain

Ore of these "plans," Mr.. White
said, he understood was to announce
in advance the personnel of the cab
met Senator Harding would consti-
tute if elected.
sIt is to contain names Of G;stin-
guised men who are seemingly diz-
charging their party obligation at the
expense Of their convictions and
their consciecces.
''If the plan is carried out its pur-
pose will be to impress a disguised
nation with the fact that weak
president would surround himself
with strong ner 1t would be con-
fession of ireMciency unpara -loled
! in the history Of American cam
paigns.''
Mr.. White stated that the Rcpub-
lican party was being deserted for
three reasons, IS follows:
"First, true Americans are deter
mined that the league Of nations can
! be saved only tirougi, the election q
Governor Cox.
Second, the country has corle to
know Senator Harding as ct best, a
wabbler on the great issues, ard, at
worst, by his own statement, sworn
enemy of any league.
Third, Americans will not coante-
nance the Republican plan for sep
arate peace with Germany. ~
In concluding his statement Mr..
White referred to Senator Harding S
declaration on league of nations CO.
legations, 81 do not want to clarity
these obligations. l want to turn
my back on them"
'These words" Mr. White said,
"smashed the deceitful strategy OF
campaign which proposed to fool
everybody until after election and
began a movement which has become
stampede"
