With Party Leaders

Democratic Party Nominee Prepares
To Write Address bf Acceptance.
To Be Notified In Nome Town.
New York, July 14.—John W.
Davis, Democratic nominee for presi
dent, spent today' conferring with
party leaders from various states pre
paratory to wrDing his address of ac
ceptance, which will formally open
his campaign and reveal the tactics
he will follow.
While the nominee has not an
nounced any of his plans in detail, it
was learned that the nomination cere
mony would be held in Clarksburg,
W. Va., his birthplace, and probably
in the house where he spent his boy
hood. The date is likely to be about
July 28.
Mr. Davis wiii finish conferences
with advisers and Democratic chiefs
by Friday, then will escape ,to a small
and isolated island off the Maine
coast to frame his rallying call for
the campaign.

THE MODERN PRACTICE
IN “SUMMER COMPLAINT”
ay to urge upon
him the importance of emphasizing
the Republican party’s responsibility
for the recent currency deflation,
which, according to Senator Owen,
“broke the heart of the West.”
“Their responsibility,” he said,“ was
shown by the Medill-McCormick res
olution of May 20, 1920, by the Re
publican platform of that year, and
by Mr. Harding's speech of accept
ance. They declared themselves de
termined to deflate the currency, and
within two years loans and discounts
were contracted by five and one-half
billion dollars and the currency was
deflated to the extent of $1,517,000,-
000. This caused the bankruptcy of
over 2,000 banks and of many hun
dreds of thousands of Western peo
ple.”
The senator conceded that the de
lay in the economic reconstruction of
Europe was one cause of the trouble
of the American farmer, but he at
tributed Europe’s plight to the “be
trayal of America by the entente al
lies.” “America had the right to be
lieve,” he explained, “that all would
carry out in good faith the good
pledges made to the German peoples
by the allies when they accepted Mr.
Wilson’s 14 points.”
Senator Owen also discussed the
tariff question, emphasizing the Dem
ocratic doctrines of a tariff for rev
enue only, which he believes includes
sufficient protection to American pro
ducers. The difference between a
revenue tariff and the Republican
tariff, he said, was the difference be
tween legitimate protection and gov
ernment sponsored monoply.

the chairmanship of the national com
mittee had been offered to Clem

chiefly responsible for Mr. Davis’,

On Wednesday, July 28, “Farmers
Day” will be hefci Clawson Col

sre invited to coma to the collage, and
bring a picnic dinner with them. They
will be styown over the college grounds

in camp.
Stages of Boll Weevil Work At This
* Time.
Upon examination of the cotton in
Laurens county I find that infesta
tion is not increasing at th» present
time. On account of the old weevils
dying out and the new crop of wee
vils not hatching yet. They wiir be
gin hatching from about the 21st to
t£e 23rd of this month. .The.best
thing that can be done for the next
week or ten days will be to pick up
the squares and save the poison until
the new weevils begin to hatch out.

BaBoon Tire Leadership
Firsetons’s latest contribution to motoring is the
low dr pressure or Balloon Tire. This, the
original full-eix4 Balloon, was made practical by
the special Firestone-Gum-Dipping process, in
sulating every fibre of each cord, adding great
strength and stamina. Firestone has also simpli
fied uie application of full-size Balloon tires to

* “Looseness” is frequent in summer
because children will eat 0 unripe or
oyerripe fruit, raw vegetables and
other indigestible foods.
Fermentation follows quickly. Some
times, there is fever, pain or vomit
ing, and nearly always a diarrhoea,
which simply means that nature is
trying to clear out the poison aqd gas.
The old idea—a serious mistake—
was to check it with blackberry or
some other astringent. What is need
ed is a cathartic. Hurry up with the
deaning-out process. Then give a
lighter diet for a while.
Castor oil is good, but better still is
liv-o-lax, which does the work
fhly, and the children like to
it. You can get a good-sized
bottle at the drug store for 30c.

Polk is one, of Mr. Davis’ closest

Some observers believe that David
Ladd Rockwell, who managed Mr. Mc-
Adoo’s campaign, also is under con

Mr. Davis’ attention was called to
the statement recently published that
he had not voted since 1916. He said
that was true. He voted that year
in Clarksburg. He sailed as ambas
sador to Great Britain about the time
of the 1918 election and was in Lon
don when the 1920 balloting was done.
In 1922 he was a registered voter in
Locust Valley, but wps out of the
city on business on el£lfon day.
“Mr. Davis explained that although
circumstances had prevented his vot

getic party worker prior to that time.
