there promises to be little interest in
the voting, although a normal mum.
Der of voters have qualified to cast
their ballots.
There are no real issues involved
with the possible exception of the
senatorial race in which Senator w
A. Russell is opposed by A. R. Con-
way. Mr.. Conway has declared. un-
equivocally for allowing the present
live stock sanitary law remain as it
is, keeping up the wall of quarantine
around the state and barring all
Florida-raised cattle. from markets,
while Mr.. Russell, seeing the newt
able trend and necessity, favors tick
eradication, but with many of the
drastic features of the bill introduc-
ed in the last legislature eliminated.
Mr.. Russell is convinced that unless
something is done in Florida the very
men who are now opposing change
will be put entirelyo ut of business.
With this slight difference in plat
form Mr.. Russell and Mr.. Conway
both stand for the same things, edu-
cation, good roads, capital removal,
economy, for the farming interests,
and law enforcement. Mr.. Russell
offers as his right to the suffrage of
the electors his experience in the sem
ate, his close friendship with many
of the members and consequent
power to advance the causes which
he will espouse, while Mr.. Conway
bases his claims on his past services
to the county and his pledges to car
ry out the ideas expressed above.
Representative Henry S. McKen-
zie, in Group 2, has no opposition,
but W. M. Williams is opposed for
the house in Group 1 by C. H. Ken
nerly. The platforms, so far as ex-
pressed, of these two gentlemen, are
very similar, with the exception that
Mr.. Kennerly is laying especial
stress on more drastic collection

Senatorial Race.
No one seems to have any idea
how the race will go for United
States senate. Senator Trammell
has a great many friends here, and
he carried this county overwhelm-
ingly in his last race. He has not
been here nor has he had a repre-
sentative here.
Ex-Governor Gilchrist stopped
over here between trains, but has not
made a vigorous canvass, as he usu-
ally does, and those who advance an
opinion at all indicate that Trammell
Twill carry the county.
McWilliams Strong Here.
In the race for congress State Sem
ator W. A. McWilliams will make a
strong race in the county, it is be.
lieved, for he stands firmly for the
Smoot plan of compensation for the
American soldier, while Mr.. Sears
has bee nespecially caustic in crit.
icising the bill in his speeches at Mi.
ami and West Palm Beach. 1t is ex.
pected that the race between these
two will be close.

my As"orInted Pressl
Chicago, June 2.-Carried far from
their expected course by whimsical
winds, six of the thirteen giant gas
bags which started in the national
balloon race at Milwaukee Wednes,
day were unaccounted for at dawn
today.
Two of the drifting bags were man.
ned by army pilots, two by navy air
men and two by civilian balloonists
Cross currents shifted the bags pi-
loted by Major Oscar Westover, of
the army, and Lieutenant Comman-
der J. P. Norfleet, of the navy, from
the northeastern course which they
pursued at the start from Milwaukee,
and when last heard from they were
lowering over the edge of Lake Erie
and floating east by north.
The remaining four bags believed
to be still in the race were carried
down the Mississippi valley on sur
face winds. AS darkness closed
around them they were drifting acros
Missouri skies.
Several of the pilots quit the race
because they could expect no more
favors from the winds and wished to
hold the distance they had covered
These included Ralph Upson, of De-
troit, one of the seven civilians shot
high into the sky at the hopoff.
He descended near Painesville
Ohio, last night when shifting winds
threatened to start him back over the
crooked course his bag pursued.
Warren Rasor, of Brookville, Ohio
another Independent flyer, came
down near Fulton, Mo-, rather than
spend another night in the air. He
landed only a few miles from the
spot ]. S. McKibben, of st. Louis,
had descended shortly before.
Lieutenant James T. Neely, army
pilot from Ross field, California,
dropped to earth near Dover, Ohio
Captain John Berry, of st. Louis, an
independent entry, came down near
Monticello, ILL.,, and Bernard Vor
Hoffman, of st. Louis, came out OF
the clouds over Fort Wayne, Ind.

which would take them up in the Ca.

chard, planted by the famous Russian
author, and one of the first acts Of the
newcomers was to whitewash all the
treee. This operation was preceded by
an animated discussion as to whether
it should be done. The young men care
fully debated this problem. If the trees
are not whitewashed the orchard will
be ruined by insects, but IL the white
wash is applied the insects will die OF
starvation and it Is wrong to destroy
life. AS the members of the colony
are vegetarians and fruit Is therefore
the prime article of food to them, ne
cessity prevailed over ideals and the
whitewashing was done.
A second problem was solved much
after the same reasoning. For many
years the manager Of the Tolstoy es-
tate has been Prince Obolinski, who
occupied a building once used by the
author as peasants school. The
newcomers, declaring that the presence
of an Overseer might restrict their
liberty of action" have decreed that
the prince must go, and the Obolinski
family soon must seek food and shell
ter elsewhere.

SCOUT S
Conducted by National Council OF the BOY
Scouts of America.)
SERVE SONS OF VETERANS

During the five days of the Confed-
crate Veterans reunion, held at Chat
tanooga. boy scouts were on duty daily
from Is to 20 hours day, meeting
trains, acting as guides and messen-
gers, serving sandwiches and coffee,
helping manage traffic as well as other
small and big offices in behalf OF the
veterans, who were loud in their praise
of their young friends work.
The following resolution was passed
by the Sons Of Confederate Veterans
in assembly:
"Resolved, by the Sons Of Confeder-
ate Veterans that special vote OF
thanks be extended to the boy scouts
of the city of Chattanooga for the
magnificent manner in which they have
discharged their duties during the re-
union, and by their untiring efforts N
behalf of the veterans Of their city
have shown plainly to ell the people
attending this reunion that they are
worthy sons of worthy s!res, and that
they will keep up the spirit that has
made the South famous in song and
story"

reunion committee, remarked that II
he had to name any one factor that
deserved more mention than any 9TH

A DIFFERENT WAY

In commenting on the service rem
dered hy scouts at the American Le-
gion convention at Kansas City, Her
bert Corey, journalist, makes this
interesting comparison:
"Time was when kid was more or
less Of q nuisance around such gath
ering as this. He was either in the
hall, under everyone's feet, because
he wanted to see, or being barred
from the hall, he clustered in windows
and looked through doors and saw
anyhow. He had no more reverence
for authority than an Eskimo has for
the Grand Llama. He was engaged
in learning something of this world
he lives In, and he WAS learning in
the time-honored way in which boys
have learned--by being terrible trial
to his elders and by not being discOur-
aged.
"The boy scout way has been diff
ferent way. All that energy and
perseverance and courage that every
proper kid displays as n matter of
course in the current Of his daily life
has been turned to good account. In
stead of being nuisance, he has
been made into help. He has been
taught to see the dignity and honor
Of service. too. so that no honorable
task seems menial to him, and no
obstacle is ever permitted to hold
him back If tie Lagion-valuing
