pleasing and we are preparing to issue
an edition that will open the
eyes of the people not only in this

* Tillman Doing Much Work.
Union, S. C., June 17, 1918.
Senator James Hamilton Lewis,
Washington, D. C.
Sir: Senator B. R. Tillman's enemies
are circulating the report that
he is mentally and physically broken
down and therefore unfit to represent
South Carolina in the United States
senate.
I think every one feels that Sena'
tor Tillman should be returned to the
senate if he is able, mentally and
physically, to perform the duties required.
,
Will you not be kind enough to
' write me about the physical and mental
condition of the senator?
Thanking you, I am, sir,
Sincerely,
L. G. SOUTHARD.
Mr. L. G. Southard,
Union, S. C.
My Dear Mr. Southard:
I am in receipt of your letter of
June 17 and in reply will say:
Senator Tilman is now in his 72nd
year, and is not the vigorous debater
he once was, nor is his physical
strength so great that he should be
required to squander it, but he does
as much work as any man in the
Capitol. His mind is clear, his heart
is clean, his experience is ripe and his
patriotism above reproach. That he
has done great things you all know.
That he is continuing his splendid
work here we know, and bear cheerful
testimony to this fact.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS.
Two-Thirds of Subs Destroyed.
Paris, June 22.?Two-thirds of the
German submarines launched are already
at the bottom of the sea, according
to a statement made to the i
deputies by the under-secretary of the
navy.
"And," continued the under-secretary,
"we are destroying them twice
as fast as they are building them."

AMERICANS MAKE RAID.
Bring in Prisoners?Our Artillery
Very Busy.
With American Army in France.
June 19.?Two American patrols
crossed the Marne east of Chateau
Thierry early this morning. They
established contact with the hostile
forces, killed a considerable number
of the enemy and brought back prisoners.
These were from Landwehr
units, which is taKen a. an indication
that no hostile attacks are in-j
tended at this po V. in the immediate
future.
Late this afternoon American machine
gunners discovered a hostile
party in considerable numbers apparently
making ready to attempt to
crrss ihe river But ail cr these auns
were turned loose for a few minutes
the enemy abandoned whatever plans
he had.
The American artillery east and
west of Chateau Thierry for several
hours late last night and this morning
deluged the enemy with shells.
The enemy retaliated today with
numerous long-range batteries.

AMERICAN HOSPITAL SACKED.
Ottoman Troops Also Attack U. S.
Consulate in Persia.
Washington, June 19.?Attack by
Turkish troops on the American consulate
at Tabriz, Persia, and the looting
ofc an American missionary hosDital
in that city, reported to the
State Department today, was believ-!
ed in some quarters here to presage
the long anticipated declaration of
the existence of a state of war between
the United States and the Otto-1
f
man Empire.
Diplomatic relations between the
two governments have been suspend- j
ed since April 20, 1917, when Turkey
withdrew Abdul Hak Hasseinbey,
who had been acting as charge of the
Turkish embassy here since the compulsory
retirement of the ambassador
which followed his open criticism
of the United States government,
necessarily American Ambassador
Morgenthau was obliged to leave Constantinople.

MANY SHIPS LAUNCHED.
Independence Day This Year Will
Play Big Part in U. S. History.
Washington, June 22.?Celebration
of July 4th this year will be
made notable for all time by the
launching from American shipyards
of the largest number of ships of the
greatest aggregate tonnage ever put
into water in one day.
Independence day's contribution to i
the merchant fleet on which the j
world is depending for victory over
the Germans will be at least 89 vessels
with a capacity of 439,885 deadweight
tons. , In addition, enthusiastic
workmen are straining every
nerve to complete six other hulls in
time for them to join in the splash
that will be heard around the world
which would make the total tannage
470,886.
The conservative estimate of
launchings to take place on the day
Americans venerate more than any
other is one-third more than the entire
production of seagoing tonnage
in United States yards in the fiscal
year of 1915-1916, and exceeds by
42,050 tons the launcliings of 1901,
the record pre-war year in American
shipbuilding. The shipping board's
banner construction month of May
will be eclipsed in one day, both in
number of ships and tonnage.
Thirty-seven of the hulls expected
to be launched will be steel, with a
tonnage of 254,6S6. They will include
the 12,500 ton cargo carrier
William Penn, the 12,000 ton Challenger
of the same type, the three
sisters, Independence, Victorious and
Defiance, all of the 11,800 ton class;
each and eight of the 8,900 tons
each and eight o fthe 8,900 ton
freighters. The Lake Pearl, 2,300
ton vessel which is to take to the
water on Lake Michigan, will have
the baby honors of the day. The average
tonnage of the steel vessels is
6,883.
With the exception of the 4,700 ton
Beechland and two others of 4,000
tons, the 52 wooden hulls which are
to be launched are of the 3,000 ton
type. Their total tonnage is 185,200.
The Pacific coast yards will launch
26 wooden and 17 steel vessels totalling
250,700 deadweight tons. The
east will be a close second to the
west, making ready for 38 launchings,
irom yaras 011 tne Atlantic ana tiuit
coasts, 27 of which will be wooden
vessels totalling 95,700 deadweight
tons and 11 steel vessels totaling 7 0,486
deadweight tons, making a
grand total of 172,186 deadweight
tonnage.
Mobile, Ala., Moss Point. Mass.,
and Orange, Texas, will lead the
Southern yards with each city holding
a double launching.
Let's not wait for "history to punish
the Boche." Why not do it ourselves,
and permit history to tell
about it?
