Vandiver, president of the Carolina National Bank, last night in recalling some notable politicians and their citfnpaigns. "Unlike Tillman and Blease, he did not thunder nnd gesticulate; his How of words was steady and harmonious, like the rip-j pling of a stream," Mr. Vandiver explained. Shortly after the World war it was Mr. Vandiver's privilege to hear Senator Watson speak at Bowman, Ga. At that time (v the senator was offering for re-election, and was opposed by Hugh Dorsey and a man named Smith. In Georgia, candidates do not speak at the same place at the same time, but canvass the state independently. Therefore Senator Watson was the only aspirant for Congress at the Bowman meeting. ,rWhen the speaking first started I noticed a man dressed in overalls seated high up in a tree," Mr. Va** div#f said, "After a while Senator Watson asked a question. Thfc tree-* sitter promptly fired back an ailstfrer. This continued all during the speaking. I was somewhat mystrfled until a friend whispered in my ear that the man 'Was planted there by Watsom It was just a showman stunt. "In his address, Senator Watson didn't mention his opponents other than to request the JtJowman people to give them a good audience when they came to that town. 'Don't do them like a gang of hoodlums did me at Barnwell and howl them down,' he warned. 'Both are mighty good men. Mr. Smith i& a gentleman and *o i* Mr.?ah?Mr.?' . "At this juncture Senator Watson rubbed his head, as if perplexed. 'Now what is that man's name,' he , muttered, pacing slowly up and down the platform. 'What is his name?' "'Dorsey!' shouted the man in the t^e. i " 'Right,* shot back Senator Watson. 'The man's name is -Dorsey.' "This bit of dramatics," Mr. Vandiver said, "just bowled the crowd over. -Shout after shout went up and, needless to say, Senator Watson was elected when voting day rolled around."?-Anderson Independent. A. W.-Holman still persists, he says in his intention to sue a number of prominent members of the last legislature to recover the extra money paid them, in ordeT to get a court decision which will compel all of them to refund the Monty. 1 ^ i V '''' Signs Show Upward - Trend Of Business a r " Chicago, Aug, 11.?Seven thousand retailers attending a merchants' council said today they believed business is pioking up ijy the dozen central states they represent.
