Nothing But Poison Sold By Bootleggers
According to Statement Of Analysis

systems attacks II eats up the
nerve tissues by overstimulating

"The distressing point is the APP

Their work may not be discernible
FOR some months-possibly not for
a few years. But the progress
against health has been going for

poison causes eventual organic

poison strikes from behind a vel,
unseen and unfelt possibly, until
too late for a remedy.

NOTICEABLE IMPROVEMENT
IN PRO ENFORCEMENT

II Is probable that the next few
months will show a still further de-
cline in the effects Of alcoholism,
because Of increased efficiency in
prohibition enforcement. This in
creased efficiency consists Of;
1. A great reduction in the
amount Of alcohol released for medi-
cinal purposes. This Is running
only about ten per cent OF what II
was year ago.
2. Increased efficiency in deal
ing with permit forgers.
3. The prospective concentration
Of alcoholic liquors in a few ware
houses.
4. The stopping Of importation
Of alcoholic liquors for any pur-
poses whatever.
s. The gradual wedding out of
inefficient or dishonest officers.
6. The noticeable tendencies Of
juries and courts 10 convict on sat
isfactory evidence and TO make pen
alties proportionate to the offense.
Juries are certainly not showing
much sympathy for Volstead law
violators recently.
7. The awakening Of a certain
section Of the public to the fact
that the effort to overthrow the
prohibition law strikes at the foun-
dations of society, weakening the
authority upon which all property
and human rights rest.
8. The deadly quality Of the
liquor illicitly sold The patron
Of, the, bootlegger today takes his
lie in his hands-and the public
is finding il out.

Hampton Citizen
Takes Own Life

Hampton, June County commits.
sioner, j. r. Taylor of Early Branch,
took his own life at his home at an
early hour this morning by shooting
himself through the head with a pis .
tol. Mr.. Taylor was at Hampton both
Monday and Tuesday and was appar.
emily in the best of health and in his
usual good spirits. Those not closely
connected with him did not suspect
that he had any kind of trouble prey
ing upon him but it is stated that his
actions were being investigated by the
grand jury now in session, it being
charged that he had been padding"
claims against the county for the
past several months and he had been
notified to appear before that body
this morning at 9:30 o'clock. Mr..
Taylor was very popular man and
his many friends are greatly shocked
at the news of his death. He leaves
a large family.

Exciting Election
In The Philippines

Manila, p. l., June 6.-Probably
the most exciting general election
held in the Philippine Islands since
the government was organized under
American sovereignty took place to-
day throughout the archipelago. The
principal contests centered in control
of the next legislature, although gov
ernors, treasurers and all other Off
cials of all but four of the forty-ninc
provinces were chosen. In four prov
inces, inhabited by non-C Christian
tribes, the officials are appointed by
the governor general of the Philip
pines.
Since the establishment of the
representatives in 1907, the Nacio,-
alista party has controlled that bod J
by large majority. That party has
also controlled the senate, with vir-
tually no opposition, since the upper
house came into being six years ago.
Early this year revolt in the par
ty ranks occurred over the question
of the method of leadership. One
faction under the leadership of Ser
gio Osmena, who has been speaker
of the house since it's organization
contended for unipersonal leadership
in the party. The other faction
headed by Manuel L. Quezon, presi.
dent of the senate, advocated collec.
tive leadership or leadership by a
committee of five or more persons.
After many weeks spent in futile
attempts to compromise their diff
ferences and after Speaker Osmena
and Senate President Quezon an
nounced their intention to retire from
public life the final split in the par
ty came, resulting in the formation
of the Nacionalista Collectivista par

with the representatives of foreign
royal families, cabinet members and
government officials as guests. In
the afternoon there will be amilitary
review. Another formal dinner will
be given in the evening by the King
and Queen of Rumania in honor of the
bride and groom.
The royal couple will lthen depart
for castle at Beed, Slovenia, six
hours from Belgrade, where the
honeymoon will be spent.
The Union daily times. [volume] (Union, S.C.) 1918-current, 1922-06-08

ty. Senator QueZon reconsidered his
determination to quit public life and
announced he would lead the new
Collectivista party and become a can
didate for the senate again in his
district, composed of the provinces
of Tayabas, Cavite, Batangas and
Mindcro.
Speaker Osmena also decided to
continue in public life, as head of the
Nacionalista party, but instead of
seeking reelection as member of the
house he became a candidate for the
senate in his home province, Cebu
Both Mr.. Quezon and Mr.. Osmena
visited many provinces during the
campaign and orators were on the
stump in virtually every municipality
and barrio (village) in the islands.
The Democratic party which had
four representatives in the last legis,
lature out of total of ia, nominal.

Every male person twenty-one
years of age or over who is not 2
citizen or subject of a foreign powe,
and who has been a resident of the

Cocktighting and horse racing are
also prohibited on election day.

Australia's Forest
Wealth Being Demolished

Sydney, N. S. w., May 1s (By
MaiD The rapid demolition of Aus
tralia's forest wealth occupied the
attention Of the Australian Forestry
conference sitting in Brisbane and
plans were discussed to launch cam
paign ito curb what was styled "the
wanton destruction of timber by mill
and fire."
"There is popular delusion that
Australia has untold riches in her
forests, but the contrary is the case"
one speaker said. "a long course of
improvident conduct has reduced our
forests to 1-25 of GUS total area and
our permanent reserves to one hum
dredth of the total area. India, with
and area 1-3 that of Australia and
population 125 times as large has
one-tenth of its total area reserved
for forests and one-fuorth of the
area under forests
"a deplorable instance of the dis
regard for forest wealth and forest
beauty in Australia is to be found in
the Acheron valley in Victoria, once
one of the most beautiful tourist at
fractions, but now a scene of desola-
tion because of the operations of saw
millers, whose one object was to
clear the country of it's timber quick
ly and thoroughly"
The conference adopted a resolu-
tion urging that frequent inspec-
tions by skilled foresters, protected
from the interference of politicians"
are necessary to preserve the forests.

Wants Better Relations
Between u. S. and Colombia

Washington, June S.-The Minister
of Colombia to the United States, DIR,
Enrique Olaya, in his address to
President Harding on the occasion of
his formal reception, dwelt upon the
increasing business cooperation be-
tween Americans and Colombians
and expressed his hope that even bet
ter relations in this regard in the
future.
Developing this idea later to rep
resentative of The Associated Press
DIR. Olaya referred specifically to ne.
gotiations now under way with Am
orleans for important public works
in Colombia, as for instance, the con-
struction of the Antioquia Railroad;
the loan for the city Of Medillin; i'm
provements at Barranquilla, Colon
bias most important seaport on the
Atlantic, and for the opening up OF
the deltas at the mouth of the Mag
dalena River.
American engineers have been
studying prospects of development in
Colombia, the Minister, continued, and
have reported favorably on more thar
one attracted possibility. Also Am
erican bankers are showing real in
terest in Colombia.
"The notable increase of recent
years in the foreign trade of the re-
public of Colombia" DR.. Olaya con-
tinued, reached the sum of $171 ,O0O,'
900 for the year 1920. This places
Colombia fifth among the South Am
erican countries, position attained
only by the herculean and unceasinS
efforts of the hard-working and in
dustrious people laboring under dis
heartening handicaps and difficulties
of transportation.
"The government of Colombia rec
ognizes the need of better means OF
communication, and to this end it is
studying with careful attention va,
riety of proposals submitted to it by
competent engineers"
The promotion of public works in
Colombia will claim the serious at
tention of the new president of that
republic, General Pedro Mel Ospina
now in this country who returns soor
to Colombia where he will assume
office August 7.

Smith and Dial
Will Not Oppose

Washington, June while Sena-

committee, designated yesterday by
the president to be marshal for thc

If charges are preferred they will

they declare today their intention O.
refrairing from participation in Re
publican politics unless forma
charges are preferred. 1t is not be
lieved, however, that they are enamor
cd of the idea of Tolbert serving :

1t is safe to predict that Tolber
will be confirmed. He will succee,

Some weeks ago the attorney genera
asked for the resignation of Lyon
who has still ten months to serve BE-
fore the completion of his term A
that time Lyon refused to resign an

threat of the department to prcfeI
charges against him. 1t is understood
now, however, that Lyon has been no

is qualifitd and that he will do SO
The movement against Lyon was re

Value of the 1921
Vegetable Crop

Washington, June 8.-Vegetables
grown in the United States in 1921
had an estimated value of 81 ,104 ,000,-
600, according to the Department of
Agriculture. This was 1871 percent
of the total value of all crops. The
products of market gardens, which
may or may not have been produc-
tive enough to be farms within the
census definition, are not included in
these estimates.
The total value of truck vegetables
produced for sale, often called the
commercial crop, was estimated by
the department at 1927, 100000.
The potato crop had farm value
of $385,OO0,OO0, and the sweet po-
tato, $87,0OO,OOO Together these
two crops comprised 43 percent of
the value of all vegetables in 1921.
The tomato crop of 1921 had farm
value of $60,000,000; the cantaloupe
crop was worth $17,0O0,00O; the Gu
cumber, watermelon and cabbage
'iopo SdSl Ndlut VI apouI PloJ-
100000.
Farm gardens are new item in
the vegetable list and had an esti-
mated value of $405, 100000 in 1921.
The value of the vegetable crop in
relation to prominent single crops
and to groups of crops has some
striking ratios for 1921, a year when
the values of the large crops were low
the department pointed out. The to-
tai value of the vegetable crop for
1921 was 85 percent of the value of
the great corn crop; it was almost
as large as the value of the hay and
forage crops; it was nearly one-half
as large as the value Of the dairy
products; it was considerably larger
than the value of all poultry pro-
ducts; 46 percent larger than the
value of the cotton crop; and 30 per-
cent larger than the value of the
winter and spring wheat crops.
