Scenes Mark Impeachment Vote " "? Baton Rouge, Lh., April 6.?Huey P. Iiong, governor of^the State of Louisiana, was impeached today by the l/ouitiiana House of Representative# amid a scene of great disorder. The Senate was notified formally and late today the upper body resolved itself into a court of impeachment to bring the governor to trial. The governor was indicted by the House on one of ID charge# in the impeachment resolution and the House planned to consider its consideration next wt'ek into the other charges. By a vote of 58 to 40, the House handed down an indictment charging the governor with attempting to sup* press the freedom of the press, specifically by threatening Charles P. I IManship, Baton Rouge publisher, with public exposure of the fact that the ! publisher's brother was an inmate in the insane asylum unless he stopped an editorial uttqck upon-the governor's proposed tax on oil. The vote was taken during a storm ! on the floor where the governor's supporters sought to push hack the inevitable impeachment. They yelled and pushed about the floor, resorted to all forms'of legislative maneuvers to cfiCtk the vote but advocates of impeachment had the situation in hand and forced over the roll call. During the riotous session of the House, Governor Long sat with a.few close friends in his office directly under the House chamber and to inquiry sent hack the message: "1 have nothing to say." After the vote, one of the floor leaders, Representative McClanahan, of Caldwell, sought ty do his fighting with his fists", and turned on Repre1 sentative Woods, of New Orleans. ! Members rushed in between them, showing the Caldwell representative hdck'as he shouted: "I am tired of being insulted by this little rat." , A few moments before the ? vote was ordered, Representative Delesxlexnier, of Plaquemines,,. ( a small, excitable man, rushed before'the loud speaker microphone in the front of the chamber, and in a voice trefhbling with passion began an address in which he sought to compare the drive against Governor Long with that on the crucifixion upon the cross. A member sought to stop him on the point of sacriligious utterances, and during the excitement, the Plaquemines representative screamed: I "Take my life but spare me my privilege." I He collapsed in a heap at the foot of the microphone, and "* members rushed to hi9 aid, throwing a glAgs of water in his face and lifting him to a chair, where hg was fanned. A member physician examined him and announced his pulse was normal. He quickly revived and recorded his vote, i At the afternoon session the Senate and House succeeded in appropriating $100,000 to defray the coat of the impeachment trial.

Given under my Hand, this 8th d*y of Anril Anno Domini 1929. ?f April, w L McDOWEHU ProbAto Judge for Kershaw County. Published on the 12th and -19th of April, 1929, in the "Camden Chronicle and !"***& at the Coi?? House door for the time prescribed Substitute For Cotton Found in Old World < vWashington, March 28. ? Cotton producers should give immediate and careful consideration to a situation that may mean the ri^in of this industry and the consequent abandonment of acres of land used now for cotton growing. This is the odd an* nt uncement from l>ondon that a practical cotton substitute has been found abroad. At least the . partial significance of this information may be' seen from the following editorials in the Washington Post yesterday.v' 'Considerable interest attaches to the announcement in London that American buyers have entered the market for artificial cotton manufactured from a South American plant, which is being developed by Dr. C. J. Hedley-Thornton. Until now. the American cotton interests have been skeptical of the economic value of the plant. The fuet that Americans may have entered the artificial cotton market may presage development of this new filrer root in the United States. "The London dispatch says that Doctor Hedley-Thornton's corporation has orders for 1,000,000,000 pounds of artificial cotton and that it ia completing arrangements to Host subsidiary companies to grow and market the product in Holland, Switzerland, Italy, Czecho-Slovakia and Romania. The plant grows prolificdlly in all of these countries in soil that is unsuitable to most crops. It is reported to be much hardier than the cotton plant, is not subject to the boll weevil, and costs less to grow and harvest than cotton. It can be handled by cotton-spinning machinery. "England is expected to have a commercial supply of the new fiber this summer and if the advantages of the substitute are as great as reported, the prediction in other countries which now import cotton will develop rapidly. - It appears that- a period of stiff competition against American cotton lies just ahead. "It may be found practical to grow the substitute on much of the land that is now devoted to cotton in the South. 0And since the plant will thrive in temperate climates, cotton fields may develop in the northern and Western states. Much land that is now unproductive might be put to work growing the substitute plant, and valuable cotton land could be used for more profitable crops."

Few people Realise the grave perils to which migratory birds expose themselves during their (lights from summer to" winter quarters or vice versa. At no other period of their existence do they run greater risks. If caught by wind or thunder storm, while crossing the sea, whole (lights m^y be driven off their course, beaten down and drownwi. It is one of the wonders of nuture, how tiny birds are able to stand the strain of .migration. Small birds, like the tiny gold-crest, weighing barely half an ounce, manage to cross at one flight the whole breadth of the North Sea, which is 350 miles across. It is evident, therefore, if the weather conditions are not perfect, that such tiny wing-power takes grave risk. Mother nature is no respecter of persons, and is not one scrap more lenient toward bird flyers than human flyers. Both cast a main with fate. Bird land has its. murderers like all other lands. Migratory birds have to contend with enemies in their own household. Birds of prey" destroy imm numbers of them, when they are tired by long Mights. (.lulls are savage enemies to migrant birds. That tact is not generally known though natural; Th gull is a maritime bird and instinctively protects its domain. When migrants are hindered by winds, they are pursued and attacked by seagulls who stnk?* them down, then devoui tiiem at leisure. Migratory birds have their pre. cautionary measures. Those whh a cfcnnot out My t heir enemies by day outwit them by (lying at. night. --Blackbirds,?larks and other*?^rird? migrate at night. And, if condition* are favorable, usually complete theii whole llight before dawn. The greatest perils of the migrant birds come from civilized man, whe often takes unfair advantage of them In many countries a remunerative business is made of trapping 01 shooting them, when they arrive worr out by their long journey. In addition to this, aviation with its airplane beacons has added anothei source of peril. The installation oJ 41 r beacons like that of the Hote Beacoh, Broadway, New York City, with its twelve hundred millions! candle-power, and that of Mont, Africque in Central France, with its one thousand millions candle-power, is welcomed gladly by airmen, yet| Is looked upon with horror by bird lovers. These fieac-ons and others which will he installed*- will make aviation safer but are bound to work; havoc among the great. Mights ofi migrant birds. The Mont Africque Ix'Heon stands in the very path of the Mights that cross France in tho autumn. It is a proved fact that the deathroll from this cause is very serious. In a hook on the migration of birds in Ireland, by Mr. K. M. Burlington,' , there is a note inserted by the keepers of the Cp pel and lighthouse, relating to the spring migration of birds. "The air," states the report, "was tilled with birds. The balcony i outside and light was completely covered with dead birds. They were five and syc deep all round, so that one walked upon a eathery carpet of , dead bodies." With the increased protection for airmen Lhere_ comes to migratory , birds increased danger. The birds, . are attructed to the air beacon as the j moth to the flame to perish. As one t type of Myer increases ^another decreases. Must it be so; is there no way of protecting both? 5, ' ^ Twenty-seven baseball players of i Cornell university, were more or less I injured last Thursday night when the ' bus they were riding in plunged over an embankment between Richmond, ljVa., and Wasnington. Owning u Home Ownership of a home is u highly desirable thing. Countless thousands of Americans have felt that they could not begin to feel really contented until theg were living in a place of their ownT In planning on a home of your own, however, it. might be well to pay a little heed to a bit of advice issued by the National. Lumber Manufacturer's association. Emphasizing the importance of using good materials in building a house, the association points out that contentment is hard to attain in a house where the roof leaks, Hours -creak, plaster crumbles j and cracks on walls and ceiling, windows stick and refuse to open and doors lit so poorly that there are always draughts of cold air in the living quarters Those are the things one gets in a shoddily constructed house. When you plan a home, make sure that the materials used are the best. Trying to save money in that matter is false economy. Cl DcKALH COUNCIL No 88 JrtJunior Order U. A. M.
