He says: II have just received q
message from Mr.. Ed Grant Of Blanc

there, as great restitution prevails
l am afraid that it will be very seri-
GUS by winter. l sent him couple
Of hundred dollars to fit out some few
fishermen.
"At Twillingate only one-half of the
normal number of fishermen are being
fitted out. The savings are being
drawn steadily from most of the
banks, both in the outports and In st.
Johns. I have that on the evidence
Of the bankers. We are starting the
new hospital building at Twillingate
That is help"
Doctor Grenfell is planning to tOu;
through Newfoundland on his relief
mission.
Mr.. Howard, discussing the discour-
aging reports from Labrador, CON-
mented:
'Twillingate is the largest and most
prosperous place in Newfoundland out

fit out only half her fishermen for the

CITY BOARD OF EDUCATION TO

The meeting this afternoon Of the
city board of education will be an un-
usually important one as it will make
recommendation to the county board
of education with reference to the
eighth grade pupils of the ninth dis
trict.
For many years the eighth grade pu.
pills of the ninth district have been
admitted to the city school OF Column
bia as an act of courtesy to the eoun-
ty and without any charge of tuition.
But several months ago the city board
of education decided that 1t would not
continue to do this, that it could not in
Justice to the city schools do so. There
is no room at Mcdowell school for
the eighth grade and has been none
for many years.

is completed provision can be made

1t is expected that the county board
of education viii make mutual
agreeable settlement of the matter
with the city board so that these pu-
nils will continue in the city schools
for the present year anyway.
Agreements between city and coun-

REGULARS MAY
NOT HAVE EASY
Time IN COUNTY
ALREADY THERE is TALK OF AN
INDEPENDENT TICKET FOR
NEXT YEAR. ...
SPECULATION AS TO CANDIDATES
Last Effort to Defeat the Regular
Nominees for County OFFICES Made
in 1905, Resulted in Dismal Fail
ure.

Although the county democratic
primary is two months in the distance
and not even the "wisest acre" in the
ranks of local politicians would risk
his reputation as prophet in trying
to forecast the ticket that will be nom.
mated on November II, there is plen.
ty of talk going. the rounds about an
independent ticket.
Speculation is rife as to the proba-
Bile composition of an independent
ticket Some of the slate makers
lsaEe already picket out the ticket"
that is so far as the three contested
oiiiees are concerned, that is for coun-
sty court clerk, trustee and sheriff.
Some OF the other states are predicat.
ed on the results of the primary and
may be unset when the returns are
all in.
Independent tickets as q general
proposition have not Jared well in
Maury county. The last time that a
full Independent ticket went before
the people was in 1906 or fifteen years
ago. That ticket followed most
heated primary contest. 1t was made
mp OF strong combination, but it
failed of success.
The most remarkable example of
the victory of an independent was the
election last fall of Dr. James H.
Jones to the legislature. DR.. Jones
not only won his race over the regu-
lar depocratie nominee, whose title
to the nomination was undisputed but
he won it without platform or for
mai announcement or asking "a singles
man to vote for him. That fact has
unQuestionably given encouragement
to the independent talk
Those who are arguing for an indie
pendent ticket declare that of the
twenty who are now in the various
races for the nominations at least iif-
teen will be beaten and that they and
their friends will be more or less
sore" that it will be nine months
from the primary to the election and |
that it will be easy for voters to for |
get their primary obligation and to
organize the disafected.
On the other hand the advocates Of |
party organization point to the almost |
unbroken success of the ticket in this |
county as evidence of the difficulty |
that an Independent has to win. They |
declare that DR. Jones election proves |
nothing since the highway issue and !
not a party matter was responsible |
or the result.
Whatever may be the outcome of |
he primary it is pretty certain that |
politics will not die in Maury county

Charles p Hatcher returned last

been to continue the fight of the peo-

increase in telephone rates sought by
the Cumberland Telephone g. Tele-

Mr.. Hatcher declared that he did
not believe Judge Sanford would allow
the motion of the telephone company.
seeking to enjoin the public utilities
commission of the state fror restrain
ing the telephone company from put
ting into effect at once the new and
greatly increased rates.
Judge Sanford annouased that he
would render his decision ip/ this
most important case on September
9th at Nashville, if he did not give it
out sooner. f
The telephone company first applied
to the public utilities commission for
permission to increase rates through
out the state. This request met with
vigorous resistance from the people
of the state Nearly every incorpor-
ated town contributing to fund to be
used in fighting the proposed Increase.
The matter was kept before the pub
lie utilities commission for a period
of three or four months, the telephone
finally becoming impatient
sought to take a nearer route to in
creased rates and transferred the
fight to the federal court. They found
the attorneys of the people prepared
to resist there also, and the argu-
ments before Judge Sanford have
been spirited ones, and between aths
ablest in the state.
1t is quite a compliment TO Mr..
Hatcher that he ahould have been So
lected from the great number taking
part in the fight before the public
utilities commission to go before the
federal court with the peoples plea
for no increase.

vice. Mr.. May has been an indefatig

eX-service men and has rendered them
the most valuable service. He is here
directing things today like an old eX-

Yes, you have q pretty good mum.
Der here said Mr.. May, but it is
nothing to some of the crowds we
have handled since we have been out
on this clean up work At some plac-
es we have had three to four hundred
seeking our assistance. OF course not
all, nothing like all of the applicants,
have valid claims, but it requires just
as much time and experience and ef-
fort to sift out the claim that is not
valid as it does to approve one that
is.
Adjutant May is not yet able to give
any definite information as to the cost
of transportation to the national con
vention of the American egion to be
held at Kansas City this fall. He
thought, however, that the fare would
be about one and one-third of the reg
