GROWERS TO BRING SUIT
Against Members Guilty of Break
ing Contract.

Raleigh, Sept. 1.-The Tobacco
Growers Cooperative Association
viii Immediately bring suit against
contract breakers in Eastern North
Carolina and in South Carolina, &C
cording to annomceme t of associa-
ton officers following a conference
IN Richmond, Va, today with Aaron
Sapiro, attorney for the association.
Four suits will be instituted in East
.ern North Carolina and two in South
Carolina, according to Mr.. Sapiro
who said a few men cannot block
the $4,000 organized tobacco grow
ers of the Carolinas and Virginia,
who have behind them the national
laws, state laws and overwhelming
public opinion. Although but few
instances of contract breaking have
occurred in the two Carolinas where
the association has begun receiving
tobacco, the cooperative association
will go to the mat with growers who
break their contract, and with un-
scrupulous persons who endeavor to
induce them to do so.
The directors at today's meeting
in Richmond expressed themselves as
highly pleased with the working OF
the association, particularly the large
deliveries in the Eastern and South
Carolina belts, and the satisfactory
prices received from large sales made
to leading leaf dealers and manu-
facturers. A conference of the bic
tobacco cooperatives will be held in
Louisville early in October at the in
vitation of President James c. Stone
Of the Burley Growers Cooperative
Association, in which the tobacco
srowers cooperative of Virginia and
the Carolinas and the Wisconsin, Con-
necticut and Maryland organizations
win probably take part.
The directors of the tri-state or
I eapization made it clear at today:
meeting that there have been com
suaratively few breakers of contract:
Shut that contract breakers will be
promptly dealt with in order to pro
feet the interests of the thousands o1
ioyal members of the association II

]. H. Hope, Florence, continues
to lead J. E. Swearingen, of Colum-
bia, incumbent, for the nomination
for superintendent of education, his
majority being approximately $4,000.
There has been no change in the fig
ures as reported yesterday and Mr..
Hope is nominated.
In the race for congress from the
Sixth district Mr.. A. H. Gasque, Of
Florence, seems to be nominated over
the incumbent, Philip H. Stoll, of
Kingstree. The vote is decidedly close.
Seven boxes in Georgetown county
have not yet been reported. The vote
stands: Gasque, 1924; Stoll, 1878,
a lead of 1,061. 1t is not believed
that the boxes in Georgetown that
are missing can change the result.
In the race for governor Mr.. Blease
carried twelve counties, according to
the returns in hand, and Mr.. Nc
Leod thirty-four counties.
Counties carried by Mr.. Blease or
in which he has majority are Aiken,
Anderson, Charleston, Clarendon,
Cherokee, Dorchester, Florence, Lee,
Berkeley, Pickens, Saluda and York.
Pickens seems to have given Mr..
Blease the largest majority of any
county, s74 votes, with one small box
missing. Aiken comes next with 80
votes majority; AndersdA with 234,
Cherokee with 622, Dorchester with
40, Charleston 206, Clarendon 1872.
Florence 2ss, Lee 64, York 542, Salu-
da 80 and Berkeley 242. ,
On the other hand an anlysis shows
that Mcleod carried four counties by
majorities considerably more than l.
600. He carried Greenville by 1856;
Spartanburg by 1850, Orangeburg
by 1913, Sumter by 1,347 and a
number of others by majorities
slightly less than 1000, some Of
these being: Union GIT, Marion 637,
Laurens SIS, Lancaster 701, Edge
field S07, Darlington TIT, Chester
773, Barnwell $50 Bamberg GA, AL
lendale $40.
Chesterfield, the home county of
Senator George K. Laney, who was
eliminated in the first primary, gave
Mr.. Mcleod a majority of about 500,
with two boxes to be heard from.
Complete returns from all but ten
counties have been received. The
names of these ten counties, together
with the number of boxes missing
in each, follow: Chesterfield 2 Claren-
don /, Colleton 1, Fairfield 1, Hamp-
ton 4, Lexington 8, Newberry 1,
Oconee /, Pickens 1 and Sumter 2.

LIEUT.. MAYNARD
KILLED BY PLANE
FLYING PARSON" AND TWO
COMPANIONS DIE WHEN PLANE
CRASHES TO EARTH.N

Rutland, vermont, sept. I.-ror
crowd of 10000 people assembled at
the Rutland Fair grounds this after
noon a "fying circus" staged with
aeroplanes and balloons was turned
into a tragedy, four participants
meeting death. An aeroplane crash
ed down from a height of 1000 feet,
carrying to their deaths, the pilot,
mechanic and passenger. A few
hours later an aeronaut leaping from
balloon 1,500 feet in the air, was
killed when his parachute failed to
open.
The dead:
Lieut.. Belvin w. Maynard, known
throughout the country as "the fly
ing parson," pilot of the airplane;
Lieut.. L. R. Wood, of Ticonderoga,
N. Y, passenger with Maynard;
Mechanic Charles Mionette, of Platts-
burgh, N. Y, and Henry A. (Dare
DeviD Smith, of Boston, aeronaut.
Lieut.. Maynard and his companions,
who had been making daily flights
at the fair grounds crashed about
o'clock in field near the grounds.
Hardly had the crowd recovered from
the shock and thrill of this tragedy,
when the second accident came, Smith,
professional aeronaut, had already
made two successful parachute leaps
at various attitudes this afternoon.
On the third attempt the parachute
was seen to open slightly and thA
close up tightly. Then the aeronaut
dropped like a plummett, falling just
outside of the fence of the grounds.
Smith, who was forty-three years
of age, had been giving parachute
exhibitions at fairs throughout the
East for the past ten years, and was
regarded as one of the best in his
line. Two years ago while attempt
ing a parachute drop from an air
plane, at Lyn, Mass, he fell 800
feet and was severely injured. The
pilot of the plane was killed. The
aeronaut claimed that his average
was thirty parachute drops a year.
Lieut.. Maynard and his two COM
panions crashed to almost instant
death this afternoon when their plane
went into nose dive at an altitude
of two thousand feet and fell to
the earth.
Lieut.. Wood and Charles Mionette,
who was with Lieut.. Maynard, COM
prised the personnel Of flying
circus" that had entertained large
crowds daily for a week with stunt
flying, went up today as passengers.
Both were instantly killed. Lieut..
Maynard, who piloted the plane, was
breathing when spectators rushed to
the wreck but died on the way to the
hospital.
The three aviators, using May
nard's machine, TOOK off the field
about 1 o'clock for an exhibition
flight. They had performed several
of the stunts on their progrom when,
at an altitude of 1000 feet Lieut..
Maynard tried tail spin, apparently
believing that he was at greater
altitude. The plane refused to re-
spond and fell into a nose dive, land
ing in corn field at the edge of
the fair grounds, mass Of wreck

Governor Hartness and staff We're

largest in the history Of the fair.

 "Oh Grandma ["

 "Dooner will say 1t again, will say It again Danzie bad Go way !! Neeu good spanking!"
 There followed quick rustic of garments. the swift impact of hand against soft flesh, piercing, sur prised wall from Junior and a grasp ing, mortified little cry. "Oh Grand ma .'' from Marion.
 l guessed only too we'll what had happened. Unnerved and angered, my mother-in-law had reverted for an instant to the sterner disciplinary methods of her own young mother hood, and had slapped her idolized grandson.
 It was the first real slap the child had ever received. I have lightly slapped his hands, and with equal midness spanked his sturdy little legs when such baby crimes as straying into the automobile roadway and pulling the kittens tail would yield to no other treatment. But this was stinging little blow--to many chill dren, alas common occurrence, but which I had meant my boy never to know.

If I had followed that first impulse I should have run to my baby boy, snatched him to me, com forted his grief--and set between his grandmother and me barrier which never could have been passed. I kney her temperament and my own too well to minimize the far-reaching results of such an action.
 The thought halted me just out side my door, and an instant later I was glad indeed, that I had kept in the background, for my mother-in- law burst into wild weeping, lifted her frightened. crying grandson into her old arms and held him tightly.
 I'm wicked woman, Margaret '" she cried hysterically. ITO think I should ever lift hand against this baby. You'd be perfectly justified in never letting me see him again.

 But at the Berlin office no one knew where Cousins was, and Jacks lance tilted at empty air. He did some tense thinking and decided on, visit to the Eureka office, the camp of his company's rivals.
 He called for the manager and got him, representing himself as an Am erican electrical engineer with big concessions in Russia.
 Jacks acting was excellent. He had many electrical supplies to contract for and had been referred to the Eureka company strangely enough by Mir. Cousins"
 Jack feigned great puzzlement.
 MT. Cousins, find, is connected with the American Electrical Supply corporation. I don't quite understand why he recommends me to rival concern?"
