HUGHES UNLIKE HARVEY


Secretary Of State Charles E.
Hughes told a gathering Of his fell
low alumni of Brown University,
Providence, r. l., recently that it was
not desirable that Americas helpful
influence should be frittered away
"by relating ourselves unnecessarily
to political questions which involve
rivalries of interest abroad with
which we have no proper concern"
1T is equally true" he continued
that we can not escape our relation
to the economic problems Of the
world"
He said the prosperity of this coun-
try largely depended upon the eco
nomic settlements which might be
made in Europe and that the KEY to
the future was with those who make
and control these settlements.
America, the exanplar of free in
stitutions, aiding humanity in their
preservation, he said, called forth
the supreme endeaver in the world
war.
"0ur men did not go forth to
fight for this nation as one of the
imperialistic designs and cunning
purpose, or to protect land where
avarice might find it's surest reward
They offered their lives, and all the
energies Of the country were har-
messed in the supreme effort because
we hated tyranny and the brutality
and ruthlessness which found eX-
preston in the worship of force.
at would not be, fitting for me at
this time to discuss our foreign re-
lations But | am glad to say that
the message of America is one of cor
dial friendship to all nations. We
have no questions which mutual
good will and the processes of rea-
son can not solve.
owe have no subtleties, no du-
plicity of meaning, no soft words to
conceal a purpose Of self aggrandize-
ment at others expense, The only
method Of diplomacy we know is
that Of candid discussion Of the
merits of problems. This, we think,
is the way to prosper a cause be-
lieved to be Just and we shall adj
vance no other"

AFTER THREE YEARS
COvington Testimony Remains I'm
Shaken.

Time. is the best test Of truth.
Here is a Covington story that has
stood the test Of time. It is a story
with a point which will come straight
home to many of us.
Carl MassengilI, near Upton Cot
ton Mills, says: II had a dull nag
ging kind Of ache in my back. 1t
hurt me to stoop down. When | did
a catch would come across the small
Of my back and almost take my
breath away. Nv kidneys didn't act
properly and | felt nervous, irritable
and thought ! would never get bet
ter. As soon as began taking
Doan's Kidney Pills I cot relief and
when / had taken one box I was com
pletely cured. Doan's sure are a
fine remedy
Over three years later Mr.. Massen-
gill said: "The cure ] spoke of in
nv former statement still proves per
manent. | wish to confirm the state
ment I gave them and recommend
Doan's whenever an opportunity oc-

TAXPAYERs. TAKE NOTICR

Owing to the great shrinkage in
the values Of all lands and on all
houses and lots in the State Of Ten
nessee since the extremely high valq-
alton against all real estate in the
State for 1920, the legislature Of
1921 passed a law requiring a new
assessment of all property in the
State for 1921, SO that all valuation
Of property could be reduced from the
inflated values of 1920, to what the
actual cash values on property are in
1921. The County Equalization Board
is now in session at the courthouse in
Covington, and by a comparison of
the figures taken from the assessors
books of 1920 and those of 1921, in
stead of a decrease in values on
property, there is an increase in the
values Of 1921 in IL Of the Is dis
tricts. Now, If all taxpayers fail to
go before said Equalization Board
for the correction Of any errors their
remedy will be lost.
Respectfully,
JOHN Y. PEETE,
County Judge.
