THOMAS STRENGTH SHOWS
GAINS OVER TEXAS.

Cullen +. Thomas, Democratic
candidate for United States scua-
tor. is showing added strength a
tho campaign enters L, last week
Voters will go To- the polls Satur-
day July p. and il is expected that
Thomas will lead tic state be-
cause OF his vigorous campaign
and popularity as man standing
fonr square Tor the interests OF
the public.
Thomas has always been strong
in Dallas, his home city, and 1t is
believed by his friends that his
vote will be large. I'm interesting
thing about the campaign is the
fact that the Scrpps papers are all
Importing Thomas. and it is al
ways assured that no paper OF
that chain will back a candidate
who does not stand FOR the pub
lies interests. Thus, you will lind
the Houston Press. Dallas Dis
patch aud the new Fort Worth
Press urging the election vi Mr..
Thomas.
Marshall Hicks and other lead
crs IN San Antonio are pushing
the candidacy OF Mr.. Thomas in
central southwest Texas. while
the San Antonio Express and the
News are advocating his election
w, only is the Houston Press
supporting Thomas. but also the
Houston Chronicle, considered in
many ways the leading newspaper
in Texas.
Voters should go to the polls
with sober thoughts Saturday,
Tor they will nominate a oadi-
late for the highest honor that
texas can give son. Do you
realize that the present senator IS
nearly seventy years OF age and
that in his iniirmity there is doubt
whether he could live through an
other term. Plain business eco
aomy demands that he be de-
ioa,ed on that score alone SO rs TO
avoid the possibility OF calling a
special election o. name a sue
CcSsOr.
The Panhandle pres, has lined
up unusually well behind Thomas.
and it is believed that he will have
walk in the Panhandle. Pco-
pie are realizing that Thomas
stands right on the great ISSUES
facing the state and nation and
that he is the type OF senator that
Is needed.

senator came out in a scathing de-

MADISON COUNTY PROMPTS
MEETING TO DISCUSS RIGHTS
OF TAX COMMISSION
Meeting Called by Doak Of Fayette

At the instigation Of Madison
county, Judge Doak, County Judge
Of Fayette county. called q meeting
Of the County Judges Of the Blue.
Grass whose assessments had been
rejected by the State Tax Commits
sion, to consider the question CT the
State Tax Commissions right to ar
bitrarily force the County Boards of
Equalization TO raise the assessment
Of a county, and the Commissions
right to re-assess any county.
The meeting was called by County
Judge Doak, Of Fsyette county. in
his Office at Lexington, KY. on May
18th, at I o'clock p. m, with Fayette,
Madison, Boyle, Garrard, Clark, Shell.
by and Scott counties present, and
after a general discussion Of the sit.
uation, Judge Goodloe, Of Madison
county, suggested that the meeting
he organized and put in nomination
Judge Doak. Of Fayette county, as
chairman. which was promptly Sec
onded, assuming the chair temporari-
ly. Judge Goodloe put the vote and
Judge Doak was unanimously elected.
Judge Doak then taking the chair,
j. p. Chenault, County Attorney Of
Madison county, was elected secre.
tary. after being nominated by Judge
Ward. Of Scott county.
The sense Of the meeting was:
First: That the County Judge has
no right under the law to re-assemble
a County Board Of Equalization.
Second: That the County Boards
action is final. except on appeal to
the Courts.
Third: That the Law giving the
State Tax Commission the right to
re-assess q county violates two Sec
tions Of the Constitution.
Fourth: That the County Board
is Board Of Equalization and has
no right to raise or lower any as
sessment except where the evidence
shows beyond a reasonable doubt
that the assessment is too low.
Fifth: That the public interests
Of both the County and State demand
q speedy and final determination of
this question.
Sixth: That all the counties take
concerted action in this matter.
Wherefore Judge Doak was ap.
pointed a committee of one to EN-.
ploy Council and determine the prop
er mode Of procedure and to confer
with the State Tax Commission on
the matter of getting this question
before the Court Of Appeals as
promptly as possible.
A number of other counties were
unable to be present but signified
their desire to cooperate with us.

1t remains rather noticeable fact
that thus far the United States is
the only nation that has ratified the
Treaties and Resolutions drawn up
at Washington, as a whole. Some of
the other nations concerned have rat.
flied the agreement in part. It was
generally supposed that causes for
delay would not be so great in other
countries as in the United States.
One explanation which is being given
Is the hesitation of the nations to act
until the Conference at Genoa had
met. Delay is Objectionable, a. in
ternational affairs change quickly ct
times and the proper conditions for
action disappear.

Victor Emanuel. the king of Italy,
has just made a visit to Trieste. the
seaport at the head of the Adriatic
which was secured from Austria in
the late war. The desire to secure
this port as we'll as the little piece
OF territory called the Trentino, up
in the mountain section of Italy,
near the Alps, was the leading cause
for attaching Italy to the group Of
nations opposing Germany and Aus
tria. Both places are largely inhab.
ited by Italians but were placed un-
der the rule of Austria by the Euro
pean powers early in the Nineteenth
Century. Italy always considered
them as italia irredenta" or Italy

The return Of Lloyd George to
England reveals the fact that he has
not lost his prestige or his popularity
by the defeat Of his plans at the &c.
noa Conference. With the exception
Of some Of the newspapers which
regularly oppose him. the premier Is
given credit for a plucky fight to
bring about a better condition of
things in Europe and to put thru a
program of peace. In spite of the
failure Of his efforts Lloyd George
gives credit to all the nations for an
honest and genuine desire for peace.
He does not even deny to Russia,
Germany or France such a desire,
tho it does not seem to be apparent
at times. The ability Of an English
statesman to look on the better and
more hopeful side Of affairs is a sign
Of fitness for leadership at a time
when things look confused and tan.

Considerable pressure is likely to
be brought to bear TO secure the et-
tendance Of the U. s. in the Confer
ence at the Hague. In spite of Sec.
retary Hughes prompt avowal of our
purpose not to be. there a possible
way was left open in the assertion
that the U. s. was not averse to sit
ting with body of specialists. even
though they we're dealing with Eu-
ropean affairs. More recently Vice
President Coolidge, in an address be-
fore the Presbyterian General Assem-
bly, at Des Moines, Ia, set forth the
necessity of the U. s. taking a more
active part in world affairs, since we
have already broken away from iso-

in sentiment is a plan by Senator

centering around an international

Of the Philippine Islands is again
brought forcisly to public attention
by the coming Of a Commission for
the Islands. representing the legisIa-

independence. The Harding admin.
istration is opposed to such indepen-
dence, as is General Leonard Wood,
who made a report to that effect and
is now acting as Governor of the Is

large one and they base their hopes
on the belief that the Filipinos are
now able to govern themselves, and
have practically been doing so for
several years. The Wilson admins.

Tragic Death of MIR. w. M.
Ransom.

Z Monday morning about eleven
o'clock Mr.. w. M. Ransom was fatal
ly injured by a tree falling on him
while he was in the woods superin-
tending the cutting of logs for his
saw mill. A tree that had been cut
struck dead tree, causing the latter
to fall in the direction where Mr..
Ransom was standing. He saw the
danger but in the effort to escape
his foot became entangled in vine,
making it impossible for him to get
out of reach of the tree. Besides the
breaking of his left arm and right
leg, several ribs were crushed in. He
lived about four hours after being
struck.
Mr.. Ransom's death is heavy loss
not only to his family but to his COM
munity and church. His tragic and un-
timely death is mourned by great
host of friends. Although retiring
and unobtrusive, this county had
few better citizens than Will Ran
som. He was generous, public spirit
ed and always ready to put his
shoulder to the wheel in promoting
any and every enterprise that was
undertaken for the uplift and better
ment of his community. He was an
active member of Stevens Greek
church, being a member of the board
of deacons. He will be greatly missed
in his church and community life.
The funeral was held at Stevens
Creek church Tuesday afternoon at
three o'clock.
Mr.. Ransom is survived by his de-
voted wife and seven children, the
eldest of whom, a daughter, is mar
ried.

at the usual season, "a proclamation

( > u = :
at the usual season, proclamation
calling upon the people to refrain
from all work for one day and give
thanks to the Great Giver of every
good and perfect gift, there would
go up from all over the country a
loud and vigorous protest. And very
properly so. While not all the people
a small minority, perhaps
will observe tomorrow in the proper
spirit, yet the effect upon the people
of the executive head of great ma
ton placing the seal of state upon
this recognition Of Ged will be whole
some and altogether helpful.
Every individual should give thanks
tomorrow. God has been especially
good to the people of Edgefeld coun-
ty and of all South Carlina. If, as
someone has said, we will begin to re
count our blessings, we will have no
time to mourn over our misfortunes,
most of which are more fancied than
real. Some people are disposed to
magnify the 'leanness" of the years
through which we are passing, losing
sight of the fact that America is the
most favored nation today on the top
side of the globe. One can read with
profit the Thanksgiving Psalm which
is published in this issue.
