Bryan, standing smiling in the lime-ligbt, at the" edge of the speaker's platform and with tears of emotion coursing down his cheeks, re* viewed a procession of prohibition enthusiasts who tore up state standards and started a moving column of delegates about the hall. There was more than one fight over whether a ,. - state standard should go in the demonstration. A particularly spectacular battle raged around possession of the ^California standard where, when Mrs. Georgia* C. Ormsby, of Oakland, attempted to carry the standard into the demonstration a number of men attempted to prevent it.

Ayscue, who plants the Seaside Farm at Mount Pleasant, last week brought to town a bloom from the leafless cotton with which he has been experimenting for three years, in the belief that this .variety of the staple will be of great assistance in combating the boll weevil. Mr. Ayscue is progressing selecting . the seed from the leafless cotton. Three years ago he began on a very small scale, hand-picking the best j seed. This year he has five acres of ( this cotton and all the stands are sturdy and healthy looking. ( As it is an early cotton of ex- < | ceueni quality ana as 11 is almost j ; lacking foliage, Mr. Ayscue believes j (that this leafless variety will resist ] i the weevil. The scourge, as he sees ] [the problem, will want for shade on the very hot days. Mr. Ayscue said 1 that from what he has learned of the habits of the weevil, the weevil can not stay in the broiling sun,.but must seek the shade during the hottest part of the summer day. Mr. Ayscjie's cotton field is filled with blooms and the one he had was plucked some time ago. He brought this to town. ^t is a sound looking bloom, well colored and of good size. He said that this leafless cotton grows rapidly and matures swiftly. : % >le Does Tod -V v I ' t indicating disposition of rain, snow or dust and v c space between outer sections of shield dUrked * Will Hav ^indshiel ices?Ventilates interior weather demands?An the oAero-ElGHT a. snow may beat down; th i - _ le wind Diow in a gaie, a ed by glass?is maintained on a direct line with the di id yet, not a drop of rain, if snow nor a particle of ter the car! is another adjustment for ' r driving, still another for weather and a third for r.

Except for his faith in the success >f the leafless cotton, Mr. Ayscue aid recently that he would not have >othered with cotton tnis year, be:ause of the prevalence of the weevil.' le declared that his experimnts vere indicative of the worth of the rariety and that he purposed again his season to select his seed by hand. Mr. Ayscue said that his leafless :otton was attracting much attention rom planters who had observed it in lis field and that these planters are lisplaying a sharp interest in the progress of his experiments with the staple. To the Voters of Dillon County? I appreciate the action taken by ny friends in announcing me a caniidate for House of Representatives. And the encouragement I' have re:eivd from different parts of the :ounty, but to serve the people would force me to give up my present occupation, a sacrifice I don't feel that j [ can make at this time. For this reason I withdraw from the race. ^ Yours truly, f i a zi a., a. uarmicnaei.
