Governor Cats Files Volun-
tary Petition of Bankruptcy

Pensacola, Fla, July 21.-Sidney
J. Cats, former governor of Florida,
who is under indictment charging
peonage, filed a petition of volun-
tary bankruptcy in the United States
courts here today. The total liabil-
tiles listed amounted to S43,O32.73
with assets of $1,91e.
The largest single claim listed in
the petition was in behalf of F. l..
Jeter for approximately $4,000 in
connection with the Consumers
Owned Stores and American Pur-
chasing Agency of Atlanta, Ca,
which was contracted this year.
Most of his debts, however, includ-
ing two bonds for small sums which
he had stood in Alabama in 1908 and
never paid, are OF long standing.
The only real estate listed as as
sets is an equity claim on ten acres
of land in Washington County under
contract for which he has never OBJ
tanned title; it is valued at $50.

Hymn SO

Come, Thou Fount Of ev'ry blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams Of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise;
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount, Pm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy redeeming love.
Here I'll raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by Thy help l come;
And I hope by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home;
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
oh, to grace, how great a debtor,
Daily Pm constrained to be;
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to Thee;
Prone to wander, Lord, l feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart, 0 take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above.

To get at the botto mand top facts

Is Your Chicken Business Run
at a Profit or at a Loss?

It is quite common to hear other
wise well-informed people say that
it costs the farmer nothing to raise
chickens. Such people simply don't
know what they are talking about. If
the average farm flock were subject
ed to the measure of commo sense
bookkeeping, it would be found that
a great proportion of our hens are
being kept at a loss-a loss that
might easily be changed to profit by
better understanding the poultry bus
mess. Poultry raising to be highly
successful must be a nice combina-
ton of science and art. 1t is a $685.

Fines Will Not Stop Them.

The report of the federal prohibit
ton director of South Carolina for
the past ten months shows that S169-
927 was collected from prohibition
cases. For the government this is a
lucrative exhibit but from the stand
point of enforcing the prohibition
act, even with the vigilance of off,
GERS, it is not encouraging. In spite
of the extraordinary financial show
ing, violations continue in as large
if not larger proportion than former
ly. It only goes to prove the assertion
often made that illicit distilling and
bootlegging cannot be stopped by
mere fnes-unalterable- Jail SEN
fences are the only remedy.
The government is not in the pro-
hibition enforcement business for the
sake of making money and its fnan-
cial report is significant only to the
extent that it evidences the activity
of it's officers. What the government
is interested in primarily is in en-
forcing the law; it can't succeed as it
should until it makes prisoners "serve
time" instead of paying fines. The re-
cord of the number of days served by
offenders would be more significant
as regards future observance of the
law than an audit of the fines col
lected.
Prohibition will not be winked at
when the distiller and the bootlegger
are denied the privilege of a fine
which they can redeem. in the next
days operation. Sixty days or six
months at hard work are not looked
upon lightly ever by the confirmed
violator. The officers are vigilant but
they must have sterner punishment
behind them before they can do their
work efectively.-Greenville News;

o Jesus, Thou art standing
Outside the fast closed door,
In lowly patience waiting
To pass the threshold Ger:
Shame on us, Christian brothers,
His name and sign who bear,
o shame, thrice shame upon US,
To keep Him standing there!
o Jesus, Thou art knocking;
And 10, that hand is Scared,
And thorns Thy brow e%ncircle,
And tears Thy face have marred
o love that passeth knowledge,
So patiently to wait!
0 sin that hath no equal,
So fast to bar the gate!
o Jesus, Thou art pleading,
In accents meek and low,
81 died for you, my children,
And will We treat me so?"
o Lord, with shame and sorrow
We open now the door;
Dear Saviour, enter, enter,
And leave us nevermore.

Breathing thy wave of balm.

Beautiful valley Of Eden,
Home of the pure and blest,
How often amid the wild pillows

Over the highlands of glory

Duncan Attacks Blease

John T. Duncan, the last speaker
for governor, opened his speech with
a vicious attack upon Cole L. Blease,
who he claimed ran when the spurs
were put to him; that he was always
in retreat as were his followers. Mr..
Duncan claimed that some good men
now running for state office r pin
ming their hopes on Blease but they
are doomed to defeat as Blease will
undoubtedly be retained in private
life by the decent people of the state.
Mr.. Duncan paid his respects to Mr..
Mcleod and Mr.. Laney, stating that
he would shoot their toy balloons
which they had misnamed platforms
full Of holes letting the gas and hot
air escape.
In his argument for s~tate-owned
hydro-electric power he again refer
red to Blease. He said that Blease's
assertion that he would enforce the
law, particularly the prohibition law,
was not even believed by his own fol-
lowers; they knew that he was utter
ing a lie.

fCr Farmers Nights.
Senator Laney, styling himself
both a farmer and a lawyer, said
that he was a member Of all the ag-
ricultural organizations of the state
and had been in the forefront of the
fight for farmers rights. He en-
phatically rejected the allegation
that the legislature is responsible for
the present condition Of the farmer,
claiming that the sudden, un-
announced deflation of the money
market put the farmer in his present
condition.
Concluding, Senator Laney stated
that he would endeavor to enforce
all the laws and extend the hand of
equal justice to all people if he is
elected governor.
Amid a Storm Of applause Thomas
