A number of enthusiastic support
ers of Senator Hoke Smith in his
race for reelection IN the primary Of
Sept. 8, met in the court house We'd
nesday night and organized Sumter
County Hoke Smith club to conduct
the campaign locally.
Mayor j. E. Sheppard was unan-
miously elected president of the club
with L. G. Council and R. L. Nc
'Math, as vice presidents; W. P. Wal
lis, secretary, and ?. B. Williford as
treasurer.
An executive committee was
named to act with the president and
vice presidents in an advisory ca
pacity. They were W. I. Lane, c. S.
Hogg, H. o. Jones, 7. C. Hudson, R..
C. Moran.
In accepting the presidency of the
club Mayor Sheppard expressed him.
self as satisfied that Sumter county
would be carried by Senator Smith.
He reviewed the record in Congress
of the Senator, declaring that he was
one of the strongest men Georgia
had ever sent to the United States
senate. He gave the senator a large
measure of credit for Sumter having
secured Souther Field and said that
but for the senator's banking knowl-
edge and foresight in having the Fed
eral Reserve banking act amended so
as to allow the issuance of six nun
dred million dollars in emergency
notes, the country would have ex-
perienced the greatest panic in its
history. He said the senator was re-
sponsible to large degree for the
Smith-Lever act.
3 To-day Georgia needs strong
man in the United States senate, !"
the speaker declared, "and needs him
as never before. Senator Smith has
proven his strength"
The speaker declared that Watson
is a destroyer, not builder; that
Governor Dorsey has made a reasona-
bly, good governor, but that he can
not point to a single large achieve
ment that he may claim as his own.

ALL OVER NOW, BUT WOMEN CANNOT
STOP, SAYS MRS. GAIT, OF VICTORY

NEW YORK, August 18-Leaders
of the women's suffrage movement
are rejoicing over the adoption of
the suffrage amendment. The senti-
'ments of many of them were ex
pressed by Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Gait, president of the National Am
erican Woman Suffrage Association,
who said in a prepared statement:
"0ur mothers began it. So it
came on to us as, in way, a sacred
trust, And a great part of our re-
joicing today in the hour Of victory
is compounded of our feeling of 10y
atty to the past and our satisfaction
that we have stood faithful to its
trust
at was fifty-one years ago that
the women of the National Suffrage
Association began what was to be g
fifty-year long campaign to get the
Congress of the United States to pass
a federal suffrage amendment. Con-
gress had been importuned for the
amendment by the women even be-
fore that, but 1869 marked the or
ganization of the National" with
the avowed purpose of securing suf-
frage by national legislation.
From that day until June A, 1919,
the maintenance of a congressional
lobby in Washington to work for fed
eral suffrage was part of the pro-
gram of the National Suffrage Asso-
citation. 1t meant keeping up an un-
broken chain of lobby work at Wash
oryo,. I,1f
1T was in 1878 that the amend
ment was presented to the 45th con-
gress by the National in the form in
which it was finally passed. Twenty
Congresses were to have chance at
it in that identical form. Before
twenty-five congresses the women
of the National were to stand and

Mayor Sheppard Heads Club
To Boost Senator Smith Here

Dan Chapel was nominated for the
secretaryship but declined, stating
that since he was commander of the
local post of the American Legion,
and since the post was opposing the
election of Watson and Hardwick, he
felt it best for the cause of Senator
Smith, and the Legion as well, that
he decline to take an official part in
the campaign After this statement
Mr.. Wallis agreed to undertake the
work of secretary.
Mr.. Sheppard stated that commit
tees would be appointed in each mi
litia district in the county and that
the club would hold meetings IN each
of these districts, making vigorous
campaign.
The club decided to hold a public
meet next Monday night at 8 o'clock
in the court house at which members
would be enrolled. into the
club. Last night the roll
was started with the names of
all those present and a number of
others had sent word to enroll their
names.

plead for justice. Of these twenty
two congresses the Republicans dom
mated both branches in eleven and
the Democrats in four, while in seven
the House was Democratic and the
Senate was Republican. In this reve-
lation of well-divided, long-continued
opposition lies, perhaps, the explain
alton of why women smile somewhat
cynically today at all party claims to
a monopoly of merit in forwarding
the suffrage program. Never was a
measure so systematically opposed,
never one whose progress was so We
hemently disputed inch by inch.
"As with its passage, so with the
ratification. Delay and obstacles
have been the constant portion of the
National Suffrage Association in Sc
curing the needed SO states. Be-
cause of the failure of the 65th Con-
gress to pass the amendment, the
measure had to go to the state legis-
latures in an "off" year. Only ten
states could ratify in regular session.
Twenty-six special sessions have had
to be called to secure the full COM
plement of ratification. To get these
special sessions called has been in it
self monumental work for the Ma
tional Suffrage Association, necessi-
tating an interminal chain of let
ters, kilograms and special personal
emissaries.
"Now that it is all over, the feel
ing of "ceaselessness" is probably
the sensation uppermost with US all.
And perhaps it is just as we'll that it
should be. For women cannot stop.
The National cannot stop. With
new purpose, the purpose of making
the vote register for an improved citi-
zenship, the women of the National
are already lined up under a new
name, the League of Women Vot-
ers."

secured the passage of the present
Georgia "Blue Sky" law, which pro-
tects the people of the state from the
many fraudulent schemes in oil and
other wild cat stock and leases.
During the 1919-1920 sessions he

Some Stores To Be Open,
Others Closed, Thursday

Owing to some misunderstanding
about town as to the date to which
the Thursday afternoon holidays
should extend, several of the larger
merchants conferred informally today
and, referring to the original agree
ment which they all signed, found
that the date was the middle of Au-
gust" instead of the "end of Au-
gust" as has been believed by some.
Consequently it was announced that
most of these stores would remain
open tomorrow afternoon, the middle
