Illardwick, who A Is seeking re-nomi'ukion, and.C4iWord t, W. Walker, who'whs defeated in the ti primary two years ago. 'Mr. Hard wick, who was on the ticket with Uni- m ted States Oenator Thomas E. Watson in 1920, has been accused by the sena- u tor,.of hdving "broken faith" with his g constituonts, while Mr. Walker has t; the stupNort of Mr. Watson, who op- 11 )osed liml in the last race. Spokes- 1, men for Senator Watson have charged g that the'governor has entered into an t< alignment of forces with former Seha-. t tor Hoke (Smith, who was defeated by 1 fMr. Veitson in 1920, with the view of r capturing for themselves tile seats in v the United States senate now held by Ip Senator William J. flarris and Mr. N Watson. Air.

The Ku Klux Klan issue was thrust \into the campaign -by the governor 1 when he demanded that they go un- T masked except in lodge rooms, and iwhen in several lof his campaign I speeches he declared: "I am opnosed to invisible govern nent, either from the city of Washing- , ton or the imperial palace of the Ku i Klux Klan, or from anywhere else." -ie has declared that the country still I is in the midst of a "i)eriod of 'unrest, s eof crime waves and it is unfortunate V that another Ku Kulx Klan sh'ould be organized at this time." E Mr. Walker has refrained from dis cussing the klan rissue and has con- I lined his s)eeches l)ricipally to dis cussion of tax questions. Six of the twelve congressmen seek ing renomination have encounteredli opposition, the race of Mayor James L. Key, of Atlanta, and Ralph 0. Cochran, seeking the seat now held b by Rpresentative William D. Upshaw, who .s after the renomination from the fifth district, attracting most at tention. In the ilrst district, Repre sentative J.

Just one week after 47 miners were entombed in the main shaft of the fa mous Argonaut mine by fire which broke out in the midway levels, res cue work*ers continued their unabated efforts this morning to reach the %Ipot where the men are thought to'be trap ped. The question as to the likelihood of rescuing the miners alive, asked and answered on every hand today seemed to leave only a spark of hope in the minds of bereaved wives and children of the men held in the mother lode. By all previous experience in mine disasters, the men are thought to be dead. There was a growing belief here that the entombed men climbed from the lower'levels of the mine during the first hours of their incarcerations through the drifts leading to the ti ul doon air shaft and were caught in the poisonous fumes which are ever pres ent there. The rescue work continued and the present Irogress of tihe work indi cates the entombed men will be reach ed about Thursday morning. * * * * * * * * * * * * * 4 * *CRItSS 11-LL1 'NIEWVS* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Cross 41111, Sept. -.-The Junior'.\lis sionary society of the iPresbyterian church enjoyed an afternoon pienic at Harris Springs on last Wednesday af ternoon.
