a???????i??? ???1 ABBEVILLE HAS U COTTON GRADER I c ??? k> Farmers of Anderson County Have I Not Accepted the Plan Offered ' By Byers. J ? 2 At a meeting of the Abbeville coun 1 ty farmers last week it was decided that the services of a cotton grader is needed at that place and a move- < anent was begun which ended :n the expenses of a grader for the period of a year being secured. The grader has already been obtained and the' farmers of Abbeville county are as- . sure<? -ihat their cotton will be pro-) perly graded and that will receive: strict middling prices for that grade; f cotton and not have any buyer or; set of buyers cheating htm by say-1 ing that the cotton is not good mid ! dling when it is. The securing of a cotton grader at Abbeville is one of the results of An-, derson county having had a grader in the past. Letters that Bespoke the good work that was done here by the market association and the cotton grader have been publishes In the daily papers of this city and that in-( formation has penertated the darkness that has been over any person ir. Abbeville who might have been prejudiced against a grader and the work of securing a grader was be guu and accomplished. The question that is before the farmers of Anderson county today is , "whether or not they are going to secure the services of a cotton grader for the fall marketing. The business , men of this city have signed a con ., tract, agreeing to pay half the expenses of the grader provided the farmers will pay the other half. It has been decided that the grader would be allowed to charge a small fee for grading cotton, which would aid in defraying the grader's expenses. It has been placed squarely before the farmers and they can decide :iou* or wait until they have suffered heavy loss on another crop, by which* time it is safe to say they v/ill need no encouragement in going: "fifty-fifty" with the business men in securing the grader.?Daily Mail. , body of eugenie rests in England; Farnsborough, Eng., July 21.? j The body of Former Empress Eu-! genie of France was laid to rest here today between the tombs of ; her husband, Napoleon LII, and her son, the Prince Imperial, in a crypt in St. Michaels Abbey. j1 Those present at the entombment]] were King George, and Queen11 ' ?'e&~yw Yy Ftf&f a KOI Your speedometer you went?a Kod; you went and wh pleasure ol the trip < clean-cut Kodak pi laggard memory.

Will Soon Cost More to Travel Says Thom in Statement Washington, July 22.?Milk and ] passenger transportation are to bear | substantial portions of the rate in- : crease to be asked by the railroads of i the interstate commerce commission to offset the $600,000,000 additional j. expense caused by the labor board's n award, it was announced today by A. n P. Thom, general counsel for the as- t sociation of railway executives. * 1 After two days of continuous con- v ferences the executives, :vir. mom p said, have practically completed recommendation to be submitted to the commission for spreading the in-?. creased expense to the l'oads over passenger and freight traffic. i The recommendations probably will v be presented to the commission tomorrow. < (i Passenger fares and rates, are not included in the pending application . of tiie roads for a freight rate in- ^ trioase of approximately 23 per cent. ^ M;-. Them declared, however, that it v:;p planned to ask that the nassen V I cer traffic absorb as much as possible oi' the new $G00,000,00U cnarge aoeration. Increases will be :..?ke.l on communication nrjtf mult!- ; I)!'.* tickets and on Pullman charges, t he said as well as on ordinary travel. Transportation of milk or. which no .. increase has heretofore been asked is r Loi..-.iuered as a combination of n freight and passenger traffic, Mr. g Thorn added. Express rates also ^ will be expected to bear part of the N increased burden, he stated. The portion of the increased ex- j pense to be absorbed by passengers is expected to be about 1-2 in the East and from 3-4 to 1 cent a mile c in the West. The portion to be applied to freight would amount to 8 per cent, a total of about 36 per cent in increased freight rates to be c, sought by the >roads. ^ id Rub-My-Tism is a powerfu antiseptic; it kills the poison caused from infected cuts, cures old sores, s better, etc. I S; il Ii ^ !v ..' it, j if t Wi?rO'?

Formidable . II The supporters of Senator Hardily will be most foolish if they do iot frankly realize the fcrmidableless of the Cox a vi Roosevelt icket. If they envelop themselves n a mood of cocksuj'eness it may rell prove a shroud to their hopes, 'our years ago in July Mr. Hughes >aa certain of success. Governor Cox is a seasoned poliician, skilled in all arts of the raft. He knows when it pays to be old and when it pays to evade. He rill do all ore man can to rub the urse of Wilsonism from his candiacy, and yet at the same time not fiend the Administration, which as still some strength with Repubiean idealisU. In Franklin D. ioosevelt he has a ticket colleague ,ho adds great strength, especially n Now Yurk, where he is held in list esteem as an independent Demi-rat of the best type. The twelve states of the Solid scutl, excluding, Maryland, West '"irginia, Kentucky and Missouri, fluster 106 electoral votes. These o'es are Democratic on any platorm or none. Thus Governor Cox | iceds but 100 from the border tales and from the North and the j Vest. The legislature of New York, I Cew Jersey, Massachusetts and j Pchode Island have all passed 2.75, iquoV bills. Ohio went wet on a eferendum. It is easy to see how it s hoped to get the needed 130 I t lectoral votes. Opportunity calls to Senator Har- , [ing to come out of his intrench-1 ncnts and to take the aggressive. A i lefensive campaign is dangerous.!, legation is not enough?the misecds of the Administration are not! nough basis for the campaign. What does he propose to do to i atisfy the progressive and inde- i endents, who are not now wholly i atisfied? The worst friends of the J Republican candidates are those i ;ho seek to surround him with an j tmosphere of "stand-patism." What does he propose with peo* to the treaty and the League f Nations? His platform properly ifc voids making particular attitude j award the treaty a test of party ; / ealty. But the way is open for him i o emphasize his jwn opinions. Will 1 e actively seek to achieve ratificaion with reservations of the Lodge ( ind? As a Senator Mr. Harding 1 oted for ratification with the ( lodge reservations. Will he throw,' he legitimate influence of the j AJViifo Hnneo in their direction if he ^ > elected? ^ Would he give the Volstead act ' n adequate trial, or would he nul-|^ ify the Eighteenth Amendment, as;1 he Fourteenth has bfeen nullified j y action and non action of Con-,' ress? Will he maneuver not to of- i end the wet vote, as four years;1 go Mr. Hughes was fatally peruaded to be polite to the pro-Ger j( ians? l( No political organization fights , rell except when it is affirmative. s 'his is particularly true of the Re- ^ * ublican organization. It is well to idvertise a purpose to turn the ii j* ompetents out. But after they ai*e | urned out, what then? Is it th \ !an to carry on or is it merely to ^ tand still? The Republican rank and file c urn to Senator Harding with a ( mfs'mtx for him to reveal cne siun f f definite leadership.
