GUY WEBB KILLED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT

ARLINGTON. Sept. 16.-Guy
Webb and Morris Haddock, of Da-
mascus, are both dead as a result
of an auto accident on the Edison
Cuthbert road, about four miles
north of Edison.
According to reports received
here the men were racing their caar
with the G. S. and A. passenger
train Number the track being
alnog side the road, when they ran
into car driven by negro going
in the anne direction, which they
evidently did not see, because of
the fact that they were giving then
attention to the train.
Mr.. Webb was killed instantly
and Mr.. Haddock received injuries
which as feared proved fatal. The
latter was rushed to the Patterson
hospital at Cuthbert.
The engineer saw the accident and
reported it at Carnegie, a station a
few miles away. Parties arriving
upon the scene of the accident could
not locate the negro anywhere. His
car was damabed little and it is be-
heved he escaped unhurt, but was
enlightened into running away. The
other car was completely wrecked

IA FOLLETTE'S VOTE
IS DEMOCRATIC HOPE
Attention Attracted by Shaver's
Plea for Fair Play for In
dependents in West

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-No
more significant move has been
made in the presidential campaign
than the defense of the La Foll4tte-
Wheeler Independent following. de-
livered by Chairman Shaver of the
Democratic management on his re-
turn to Washington from Chicago
Sept. A.
At Chicago Shaver received de-
tailed reports on the political line
up through the west and north
west. His championship Of the La
Toilette insurgents was the result.
1t might be described as a diplo-
matte retreat by the Democrats
from any fight to split the anti
Coolidge vote in those states.
Although not so stated, at least
as yet, it is hoped that a gracious
acknowledgement by the indie
pendents of this courtesy may be
that they will permit the anti
Coolidge vote in a number of con-
tested eastern states toconsolidate
on Davis, instead of bcirg split,
to Coolidge's advantage, between
Davis and La Toilette.
The fact is that except in a few
states bordering the "Solid SOUTH"
such as Arkansas, Oklahoma and
Missouri-the fight in the states
west of the Mississippi River is a
fight between Coolidge and La Fol
lette.
Even the strongly partisan
Democratic Baltimore Sun con-
cedes that this year the Democrats
have no chance in California,
Washington, Oregon, Michigan,
Montana, Idaho, North and Sou h
Dakota, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Utah.
This will be an unpleasant dose
for the Democrats back east" SAYS
the Sun in presenting its decision
as to the party's chances in those
states.
ut sounds almost like one CT Mr..
Buffers periodic claims, but IN
spite of that it is true and no poll
tically posted person in position
to get the facts has any other idea,

year and formed a number of ac-
quaintances here then.
Mr.. Baker is pastor Of the First
Baptist Church at Leitchheld, ard
has been doing evangelistic work
for some time. He was born and
raised in Ala, studied at Mercer
University here, saw service in the
World War as a chaplin and later
studied at the Baptist Seminary at
Louisville, KY.
When Nh. Baker was here in
April, Rev. Grady D. Feagan was
pastor of the Tabernacle. Since
that time Mr.. Feagan has resigned
to resume studies in Boston, Mass.

no matter how he may talk pub
licly."
This being the case, what is to
be done about it? Does that neces-
sarily mean Democratic defeat?
Not at all, says the Democratic
strategists. At least II of these
states are normally as rock-ribbed
Republican as Texas is Democratic.
Actually, the La Toilette strength
in these states is the Democratic
hope.
Normally they would go Republi-
can. This year they will not go
Democratic but they may go TO:
La Toilette.
And every state carried by La
Toilette cuts that many votes from
the Coolidge column and is thus,
indirectly, very real help TO the
Democrats.
Democratic dope" on the com
parative Coolidge-La Toilette
strength in these 13 normally Ec-
publican states is that La Toilette
is certain to carry five and may car
ry eight. La Follette's conviction
is that he will carry eight and has an
even chance at the other five.
Republicans, naturally, derido
both these claims.
By Democratic leaders who ac-
cept this analysis of the western
situation, the logical lay of the
campaign is declared to be an m
tenslve and concentrated campaign
IN debatable eastern states, par
ticularly Ohio, Indiana, New York,
New Jersey and Maryland.
All of these states, with the solid
south, would insure them a ma
jority of the electoral college. Even
two Or three of them, provided La
Toilette is able to run no a total of
from so to 70 electoral votes in the
west, would prevent Coolidge get
ting the necessary 266, they figure.
That would throw the election
into Congress, where, Democrats
say, Davis might not win but Cool
idge could not.
This is the situation, then, that
lay behind Chairman Shaver's So
fcitude for fair play for La Fol
lette in the west. The bigger vote
La Toilette can get in regular Re-
publican states, the better chance of
a Democratic victory. Every state
lost to La Toilette in the west will
be as good as state won by The
Democrats.

VETS OF WORLD WAR
Continued From Page one)

"The same thing applied to the
Spanish-American War period.
They call it little war but they
forget the days of 1898, when The
people of the Eastern coast ard
the Gulf coast were terrified and
unnerved with fear of a lombard
ment by the Spanish fleet that had
disappeared from the Azores and
which was thought to be somewhere
in the vicinity of our shore prepar-
ed to strike our most vulnerable
spot.
"They forget that the bankers Of
the coast cities were so frightened
and panic-stricken that they wer4
shipping their money to interior
points for safety.
"They forget that there were
many anxious moments in homes
from which the $4,000 volunteers
came at that time.
''They forget that the terrible
ravages of fever in camps in our
own country caused a greater per
centage of fatalities than in any
other war period.
They forget that when we came
home they were proud of us be-
cause the war was short; that we
never lost a battle, never lost Il
flag, and never retreated from a
single foot Of ground.
"They forget that the display Of
fighting qualities of the men of
that period first opened the eyes
of the world that this nation was
amply able to back, with force if
necessary, its ideas of freedom and
Justice and humanity.
I'VE can see no reason therefore
for discrimination against us in
favor of the veterans of any other
war in which this nation has been
engaged. The same debt of graf
tude and the same duty of service
is due us.

Numerically, we are only a
