MUCH CONSTRUCTION
AT STATE HOSPITAL
New Spur Railroad Track is Being
Laid and Well is Being Drilled.

Chattahoochee, July 28.-There is
much activity about the hospital here.
Most of the work being done at this
particular time is in connection with
the new power and ice plants for
which 100000 was appropriated by
the 1919 legislature. The following
improvements are being made:
IA spur railroad track leading
from the Atlantic Coast Line railway
to the location of the new plant. This
track is about three quarters OF a
mile and will, when completed, great
~ reduce the cost of delivering fuel
to the plant. At this time the fuel is
unloaded about a half mile from the
power plant and has to be hauled up
grade for this distance. The steel for
this track is being unloaded. The ties
are being laid and other ties are be-
ing cut and it is only matter of a
short time until you can see the rail-
road crossing the Spanish Trail near
the hospital.
1.-The Durham heating system is
being installed. There has been a
crew of men at work on the piping for
this system for two or three months
and the buildings are being piped so
as all unused heat will be returned to
to the boilers. This work is being
done in addition to the present heat
ing system.
3-There is a twelve-inch artesian
well being drilled near this plant,
which is to furnish water for the sup
ply at the hospital. This well is be-
ing drilled by Mr.. Davis with the Ohio
Well Drilling Company. They have
reached the depths of about two hun
dred feet.
The work on the building proper is
going rpaidly along. The engine beds
have been built. The steel for the re-
workmen will begin at an early date
to pour concrete for these walls.
Much of the machinery is arriving
and will be placed as the work pro-
crosses.
Excavation work for the new En-
ployes' Home has been completed and
the construction work is soon to be-
gin on this building. Material is be-
ing cut at this time for this work.
Much other work is going on in
the way of improvements and paint
ing. Many of the old buildings have
been painted and others remodeled
and repaired.
other appropriations were made at
the 1919 session of the legislature for
work which has not yet begun. These
are for an Industrial building and for
remodeling and repairing the dining
room and kitchen.

BACK so PAINFUL
COULDN'T STAND TO
WEAR HER CORSET
Jacksonville Lady had to be
helped up and down in bed
because her back was so weak
and full of pain.
Felt tired and draggy every
morning, but Dreco has over
come all this and she now at
tend 80 her duties.

IT had such terrible backaches that
I couldn't bear to wear a corset, for
the pressure was more than could
bear, even though 1 felt the need OF
the support It gave me-" said Mrs.
Sarah Hanes, Monroe, ST., Jacksonville,
Fla.
"My kidneys were in bad shape and
frequently had to get up several
times during the night. My stomach
was deranged for indigestion troubled
me daily. My bowels were bound up
and I had headaches every day, es-
pecially in the morning, when Fl get
up feeling t.red and had those drag
ging pains. I had spell and they had
to help me up and down in bed on &C
count of the pains in my back. I lost
weight and got so weak I could not
attend to my housekeeping.
"a friend told my husband to get
some Dreco for me, which he did and 1
began taking liberal doses, which got
my bowels to moving and got them
cleaned out. My kidneys got better so
that I did not have to get up during
the night, and all the pain in my back
disappeared. My food digested better
with no gas no pains in my stomach;
I began to gain my weight back; my
appetite increased; I slept sound every
night and on waking I'd feel fresh
with no headaches 1 take long walks
now and don't get tired; am keeping
my house again, and even washed and
ironed last week. Dreco has been a
blessing to me, and I gladly praise it. y
All good druggists now sell Dreco

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

We endorse the proposed 10Th amend
ment of the constitution of the United
States granting equal suffrage to women.
We congratulate the legislatures of 80
states which have already ratified said
amendment and we urge the Democratic
governors and legislatures of Tennessee,
North Carolina and Florida and such
states as have not yet ratified the Fed
eraI suffrage amendment to unite in an
effort to complete the process of ratifica-
ton and secure the Both state in time for
all the women Of the United States to
participate in the fall election. We COM
mend the effective advocacy of the mea-
sure by President Wilson.-Democrati
platform, 1920.
After reading the above a person who
did not know the facts would naturally
conclude that the Democrats of the United
States were strongly in favor Of equal
suffrage The facts are that the resou-
ton submitting the equal suffrage amend
ment to the states for ratification was
put through Congress by Republican
members. At this writing IS states have
ratified it, and of these 26 are Republican
states, of them are Democratic states,
and the other are Republican in one
branch and Democratic in the other. Six
Democratic states have voted against
ratification and not one Republican state
has done so.

After Germany had surrendered her
war vessels to the Allies it was clearly
seen that the war was over, at least as
far as our navy was concerned. A Board
of Award was appointed, composed of
naval officers of high rank, whose duty
was to make up list of naval officers
VINO had performed services such as
would entitle them to receive a decora-
ton for Naval Distinguished Service.
Mr.. Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, pro-
ceeded to change the awards by additions
and subtractions, some of which were
entirely without reason or warrant. The
absurdity of this was SO great that an
emphatic protest was m de by expert
enced naval officers of high repute and as
a result there was Senate investigation
which lasted nearly six months. The
report of the Senate committee does not
sustain the action of Mr.. Daniels. In
fact it is equivalent to rebuke.

there. She was in such distress Mr..

neighbors, hence he was all alone with
her when she died. Mrs. Hamlin was
born in Buxton, Maine and would have

continued to reside until they moved to

MORE BAKERISM

Many of US, perhaps the most of Us,
have believed that government control of
certain public utilities was solely and en-
tirely war measure made necessary by
the conflict with the Central Powers.
Probably not one man or woman in a
thousand knows that the War Depart
ment proposed bill to the Senate which,
if enacted, would create a Federal Cor
poration. The proposed bill authorized
the taking of lands, materials, minerals,
patented processes and any other thing
necessary for the conduct of any business
connected with the operation and devel-
opment of the property taken. After
being acquired the President or the Sec
rotary of War was authorize to transfer
these acquisitions to the Federal Cor
poration, which thereupon had authority
to operate and develop the properties, to
lease other properties and to sell the
products of its operations to consumers
in domestic and export markets in COM
petition with established merchants,
manufacturers or producers. The initial
capital stock of the corporation was fixed
at sl25, 900, 900 in real property. This and
the enormous additional funds which
would be needed to pay for the properties
taken was to be taken from the treasury
of the United States or, to be exact in
statement, from the pockets of the people
either by taxation or by bond secured
loans. There were to be S12, 500, 600 of
5 per cent preferred stock. The remain
der of the capitalization was to be COM
mon stock on which the corporation
would be required to pay no dividends
The assets and income were to be eX-
empt from all federal, state or local taxa
ton. The proposed bill gave the President
and the Secretary of War free hand in
taking property and turning it over to the
Federal Corporation.
Under the provisions of this proposed
bill private property of any and all kinds,
would be liable to seizure at any time and
an untaxed corporation, financed by the
people of the United States, would be able
to monopolize any or all businesses For
tunately there is no probability of its
enactment. We mention the bill merely
for the purpose of calling attention to
Bakerism on the road TO Bolshevism.

Washington, Sept. 90.
My Dear Mr.. Brownlow:
Washington has lost much in losing
ened and sympathetic. But l expect
you to render even greater service
TO our country as city manager OF
Petersburg.
Municipal administration is one of
the most conspicuous failures-a fail
ure becoming even moro serious in
its results because OF the rapid
growth Of our urban population and
the constant additions to the NUM-
cipal functions. The need of remedy
ing conditions is urgent, but the diff
hculty OF doing SO is great. Few
communities are sufficiently enlight-
ened and self-restrained to want to
apply an adequate remedy, and few
administrators have been developed
who are capable Of transfusing bust
ness efficiency with the systematic
democratic spirit. You are: and as
city manager you will DO able TO
advance the profession by defining
and disclosing the essential condi-
tons OF success and by developing
the technique.
Petersburg has done itself credit
by the selection and will receive It's
reward
With best wishes,
Cordially,
LOUIS D. BRANDEIs.
