Husband Of Mayor (
Introduces a Bill to
. Abolish Town Charter

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March IA
What would you do if you were a
member of the legislature and were
asked to abolish the charter of your
home city of which your wife was
mayor?
That was the intricate problem
today facing Representative j. P.
Kivett, of Tazewell, member of the
lower house of the Tennessee legis-
lature from Claiborne county. He
was asked by mass meeting of the
citizens of the little town of 700 in
habitants to have the city charter
abolished.
Representative Kivett is a Re;
publican, while Mrs. Kivett is a
Democrat. The Democrats of Taze-
we'll figured, according to Kivett,
that they would stand a better
chance to get favorable legislation
from him if they elected his wife
mayor when the election came about
six months ago. Since then they
decided to do away with their city
government entirely. Representa-
tive kivett decided majority of
people wanted his wife's job abolish
ed, so he introduced the repeal bill,
which passed the house today.
The mayor of Tazewell and two
members of the board Of aldermen
which will be legislated out of Office
are women.
Mayor Kivett offered no objections
to the repeal of the charter, her
legislator husband said.

More than a million and a
quarter dollars is being paid out
to Virginia members of the To-
bacco Growers Cooperative as
sociation of the dark-fred area
this week, according to the an
nouncement of +. d. Williams,
manager of the dark leaf de-
pertinent.
According to Mr.. Williams
announcement, checks are be-
ing made out for all dark tobac-
co delivered up to February II,
by which date the association
had received about 2O,600,000
pounds of the dark weed. The
second payment, like the first,
will amount to approximately
40 per cent of the appraised
values of the tobacco, and the
sum of the first two payments
will run we'll beyond what the
farmer has generally averaged
for his crops in ordinary years
with a further payment assured
at later date.
The continued success of the
bright markets of the Tobacco
Growers Cooperative associa,-
ton is described as follows in a
letter just received at Raleigh
headquarters from r. N. Will
Iiams, manager of the co-opera-
tive floors at Danville, Va:

Very Sleepy,
But Sees Bryan as
Democrats Best Bet
Atlanta Journal Bureau,
Hotel Astor.
BY WARD MOREHOUSE

NEW YORK, March 14.-Repre.
sentative w. D. Upshaw, of Atlanta,
coatless and collarless, his shirt half
unbuttoned and his eyes drowsy, sat
on his bed in his room at the Hotel
Pennsylvania at 2:30 o'clock this
morning and expressed himself re-
garding politics in general and the
next presidential campaign in par
ticular; Bookkeeping and the neces-
sity of a fellows getting a good
nights sleep.
This country isn't going TO let
this wet bunch around New York
and New Jersey run things, and New
York City might as well become
aware of the fact" he said.
William J. Bryan" said the
Georgia congressman, is the man
who stands the best chance TO win
the Democratic nomination and
largely because of his dryness.
Farmers over the country have told
me that they can't see anybody
else's head save Bryan's, and a
prominent Republican told me that
if Bryan ran against Harding he
would sweep the country"
The congressman paid a visit to
The Journal bureau today and sign
ed the bureau register. He came to
New York to confer with the pub
Usher of a book of which he is the
author and which is soon to be
brought out.

No Law Against
Hunting This Way

WAYCROSS, Ca, March IA
Although the hunting season is
over, there is no way to prevent a
covey of partridges from attempting
self-destruction, according to Will
bur Sweat and James Cason, young
men of this city, who returned from
Folkston recently in a light truck.
They claim to have been riding
along at a moderate clip when a
covey of cartridges flew low along
the road in their direction and
plunged headlong into the radiator
of their car.
When they had stopped, they
found six dead cartridges lying in
a row between the ruts. And, as
there is no law on the statute books
against this method of hunting
game, the offering was gratefully
received and furnished a capital
bird supper.

Paul Kruger Fortune,
Long Lost in Africa,
Believed Discovered

LONDON. March 14-South Afri-
ca is excited over the reported dis.
covery in the Petersburg district
of vast sum of gold which Paul
Kruger, late president of the Trans
vaaI, is said to have buried in the
course of his flight to Delagoa bav
and Europe about twenty years ago
to escape capture by the British.
Recovery Of the tabled fortune Of
Kruger, who left an estate valued at
$S,750.0O0. has been the goal of ad-
venturers and commercial syndicates
for some time.
More than 100000 in gold, rep
resenting the bulk of Kruger's mon
ey, was cemented in the hold of the
bark Dorothea, which sank on Tene-
dos reef, off the Zululand coast about
twenty years ago. This money,
which has never been recovered so
far as is known, is said to have been
shipped by Kruger previous to 1904.

May See President,
But Not to Confer
Hardwick Declares

please make it clear that am
not going to Florida to confer with
President Harding" Governor Hard
wick said Wednesday to the news
paper men on the eve Of his de-
parture on Thursday.
THE president Is in Florida to rest
and recuperate." the governor con-
tlrued, Mrs. Hardwick and my
self are going by automobile to rest
and recuperate We expect to see
the president socially as we did last
winter on similar trip.
But my meeting with the presi-
dent will not be in the nature of a
conference as a good many news
.papers have mistakenly used that
word. The president is a Repub-
lican. I am a Democrat. 1 do not
proffer my advice where it Is not
asked, and it is not customary for a
Republican president to seek politi-
cal advice from a Democrat"
The governor expects to return
the latter part of March and to go
at once to Washington and New
York and return to his office in the
state capitol about the first OF
April.
He said he might see Attorney
General Daugherty on the Florida
trip, if the attorney generals health
will permit, regarding the appoint
ment as assistant attorney general
IN charge of war fraud prosecutions,
which has been rendered the gov
ernor ami which he has accepted. to

COOPERATIVE MARKETING
Department Devoted the Pool Selling of All Farm Products

H. B. Mccall, of Effingham, S.
c., probably the largest planter
in Florence county, says that
none of his share troopers who
divided and sold at auction have
received as much as his half in
the association. Mr.. Mccall
stated last week that one of his
share troopers carried his half
of four acres to the auction sale
and got $3.50. while the half put
in the association has already
paid Mr.. Mccall $3.50, and he is
assured of still more in the
fourth and final payment. Mr..
L. E. Ward, another Florence
county planter, sold four acres
of a better quality crop in 1921
than that which he delivered
this year and received 1852 for
it. His 1922 crop of only three
and q half acres has already
paid him $905.06 in the associa-
ton.
A remarkable record in sign
ing up members has just been
reported to Raleigh headquar-
ters by John c. Roach, of Whit
ties Depot, Va, who asked for
more contract blanks to bring
his total record to 100 signers.
Mr.. Roach writes: Having
signed up personally and
through meetings at different
places 1,074 tobacco growers, I
would like to complete the record
of an even LOO. and then I
can leave or discontinue active
service with the co-ops feeling
that have somewhat fulfilled
the duty to our down-trodden
tobacco growers"

Today Mr.. Massey offered for
sale on the auction floors of
Danville 2,400 pounds of tobacco.
Not being pleased with the sale.
he took this tobacco in, came to
the associations warehouse and
asked for contract, which he
signed, requested that l send n
truck to the auction house for
his tobacco, which 1 did. Our
grader put these tobaccos in the
association S standard grades.
Mr.. Massey stated that his first
and second payments on these
tobaCcos would give him 81 per
hundred more than he would
have received in full had he let
his tobacco go at the prices Of
fered on the auction floor. He
was very much pleased with our
method of handling his tobacco
and has gone home a strong CO.
operative, stating that he was
going to work in his community
in an endeavor to promote the
interests of the association in
every way possible.
With best wishes, I am,
Yours very truly,

Alabama Man Charged
With Arson; Two Lost
Lives in Eufaula Fire

MONTGOMERY, Ala, March ID.
Emmet Brown. of Barbour county,
was lodged in Jail at Dothan Tues
day night following his arrest by
J. H, Lynch, state law enforcement
officer, on a charge Of arson in con-
nection with the burning in Janu-
airy of a combined rooming house
and garage at Eufaula in which
fire James BArfield and his daugh-
ter lost their lives. Brown owned
a vulcanizing plant on the first floor
Of the structure.
Brown was arrested at Falco,
Ala, where he is said to have been
living since the Eufaula fire. Au-.
thorities considered it unsafe to
place Brown in Jail at Eufaula on
account of reported high feeling
against him there, and orders were
received to take him to Dothan.
The arrest of Brown was at the
instance of G. r. Shaffer, deputy
state fire marshal, working under
direction of the state fire marshal,
Chester f. Johnson. According to
Mr.. Shaffer, a statement made by
Ira Kimsey. employee of Brown, led
to the arrest. According to state
authorities, Brown carried $500 in
SuranCe on his plant.

TICK INSPECTOR IS
BOUND OVER; THEFT
Of cow IS CHARGED

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, March Is.
j. H. Jeffries, county tick inspector
of Georgia, was bound over in bond
of $500 to await the action of the
grand jury, following preliminary
hearing before County Judge Willis
on a: charge of larceny Of a COW.
The case grew out of the diver
gent views on cattle dipping of
Grady county, Georgia, and Leon
county, Florida. The Georgia coun.
ty, it was developed, has compulsory
cattle dipping laws, while the Flor
ida county has no such measure.
Jeffries rides the line between the
two counties to prevent tick-infested
Florida cattle coming into the tick
free domain of Grady county. G.. B.
Strickland, a Leon county farmer.
living near the line, and who swore
out the warrant for Jtffries' arrest,
declared that the inspector had come
into this state and taken one of his
cows into Georgia, impounded it and
subjected it to the dipping vat and
then called upon Strickland for a
50 fee before he could recover it.
Several other witnesses substantiated
Strickland's testimony in that JEFF
fries was seen in Florida driving
Strickland's COW and two others to-
ward the Georgia line.
The defense, including two Grady
county attorneys. did not put any
witnesses on the stand, but argued
that the state had not proven case
of larceny, even if it was admitted
that Jeffries took the cattle from
Florida. Felonious intent had to be
proven. they argued, as it was quite
possible for the inspector to have
mistaken the state line and by error,
to have taken the cattle, which did
