REPUBLICAN POLICY
IN REGARD TO MEXICO
IS TOT OF LEWIS
Attacks on President Wilson
Are Denounced as Treason
by Illinois Senator in Ring
ing Speech in Senate
{Bj Associated Brass.)
WASHINGTON. Aug 5. —Mexico as a
political issue in the national campaign
was discussed 1 nte senate today. Sen
ator Lewis, of llltonis. assailed tne
Republican party and Mr. Hughes, its
presidential candidate, for attacking tne
administration “without regard to facts,
equity or justice.” and Senator Fall, of
New Mexico, replied.
Senator Lewis bitterly denounced the
Republican leaders for their assaults
upon President Wilson's Mexican policy,
characterizing them as "treasonable.”
Responsibility for the death of Ameri
can soldiers at Carrizal he placed at
the door of the Republican party, charg
ing that “not till the captains of the
Republican party shot at t£e president
of the United States did the Mexican
outlaws shoot at the soldiers of the
American president-" He referred to op
ponents of the government's course In
Mexico as "bjood tarnished votaries
headed now by the newly-annointed chief
of this political hierarchy, the nominee
for president of the United States,
Charles Evans Hughes."
SUMMONS TO MEXICANS.
< The platform r decoration Senato
Lewis characterized as *'a summons to
Carranza and Villa to revenge the en
trance of American soldiers into Mexico
and the interference of America in her
internal affairs.”
“Revolt against the government at
Washington as to Mexico—that is the
issue,” he declared. "Denounce the
president as to Mexico—for that is the
issue. Make contemptible your own
country before the world whenever you
can for that is the issue. Humiliate
your own felllowman by holding his
country and his president up before the
world as unworthy the support of his
countrymen or the respect of foreigners
“At last the army is summoned —the
mercenary—the concessionaire, who pol
lutes the government in power to wrest
the rights from the defenseless and the
weak; the European bondholder demand
ing of the sovereign United States that
she shall send her sons to die that their
blood may give value to that whose
creation was born of robbery and whose
existence is being maintained by fraud;
the land ptrates-of the plains, pillagers
of the peons, oppressors of liberty, de
stroyers of homes, murderers of justice
—come all of you! At last there is found
for you a house in which you are wor
shipped as gods and at whose altars the
innocents are sacrificed for you to make
an election holiday. This procession of
blood-tarnished votaries, headed now by
the newly appointed chief of this politi
cal hierarchy, the nominee of a Repub
lican convention for president of the
United States. Charles Evans Hughes."
Senator Fall. Republican, said he
would like to spend every cent of the
Republican campaign fund to send the
Illinois senator's address over the coun
try.

STUBBED IN FIGHT
Felder’s Friends Assert It Grew I
Out of His Opposition to
Savannah Recall Bill
The stabbing of Thomas B. Felder by
G. K. Vason in the Kimball house Thurs
day night, has brought forth two dis
tinct statements as to the cause of the
cutting and has led to the passage of a
resolution in the state senate unani-1
mously repudiateing the rbport that the
Savannah recall bill was at the bottom
of the affair.
Vason. held without bond at police sta
tion. has refused to give out a state
ment.
Felder, in a critical condition at St.!
Joseph's infirmary. Is not allowed to :
talk: but his friends quote him as de-|
daring that an altercation over the re- '
call bill caused the stabbing.
Charles S. Arnow, an eyewitness to
the fray, says he heard no words passed
about the recall bill, but did hear Vason
call Felder a liar for making remarks
about Speaker Burwell.
W. Woods White, chairman of the law j
enforcement committee of the Anti-Sa- j
loon league, for which Felder Is attor-’ '
ney. describes the stabbing as a dellb-1
erate attack on Felder to destroy him i
for his activities in fighting the recall 1
bill and working for the forces of prohi
bition- .
COULDN'T CUT HIMSELF.
Dr. Willis Westmoreland, who has
been attending Mr. Felder ever since
the cutting, stated to The Journal at
2 o'clock Friday afternoon that his con
dition is critical and will be for several
day.
“I do not think there is any ques
tion but that the knife entered fhei
lung cavity,” he said. “I am positive I
of It, although I cannot tell how deep
the blade went. In case there are no
unforeseen complications, however, he
will recover. Jt is impossible that Mr.
Felder could have cut himself. Expert
examination shows this, for It is simply j
a question of mechanics. He could not ;
have inflicted such a wound himself. ’
Even had he been able to reach the
place in his side with a knife, his arm
would not have contained enough force
to sever a rib."
Mr. Arnow gave the following state
ment to The Journal Friday morning:
"I was in one of the rooms of Gov
ernor Harris's campaign headquarters
with A. J. Liles, representative from.
Camden county. I heard loud talking in
the hall but at first did not pay any
attention to it. Then I heard Speaker
Burwell's name mentioned. I walked
into the hall and saw Vason and Felder
standing there
"Vason was abusing Felder in a ram
bling. muttering undertone His words
were not clear, but I heard him accuse
Felder of 'telling a lie on Bill Burwell'
He called Felder a liar. Then
the two men rushed into a clinch. There
was a dim light in the hallway, and I
could not tell which was the aggressor.
Nothing whatever was said about the
Savannah recall bill, so far as I could
hear.”
Speaker Burwell said he had no idea
what “lies” Vason was referring to, as
he has heard no mention of any state
ments Mr. Felder may have made about
him. Vason and the other doorkeepers
and pages of the house were appointed
by the speaker.
MR. WHITE'S STATEMENT.
W. Woods White reiterated Friday his
belief that the stabbing of Felder was
an attempt at assassination.
"I have not seen Mr. Felder,” he said,
"but several of his friends have and
they tell me he says the trouble was
over the recall bill. I have no direct
evidence that guch is the case, but it is
my firm convtcXJorf ttai the stabbing was
the result of aptOt\to destroy Mr. Fel
der. That’s all it looks like and that’s
all it is. They have been trying to get
him for a long time. They couldn't get
him any other way, so they decided to
kill him. That poor devil Vason didn’t
take it into his head to suddenly protect
all the liquor interests of the state. De
liberate purpose was behind him. Mr.
Felder has been threatened time and
again and I am sure there was a well
defined prograpa to take his life.
"It's the same old story. The liquor
interests worked the same game In Ten
nessee and Minneapolis and Omaha."
Mr. White would not say what steps,
if any, the law enforcement committee
will take toward Investigation or pros
cution. "That’s the state's business.”
he said, "but I can tell you this, it's not
going to slip by without notice.’
Mr. Felder was reported resting easily
Monday morning at St. Joseph’s Infirm-I
ary, where he was taken immediately I
after he was stabbed in the left side.
DANGER OF INFECTION.
Dr. Samuel Green states that the chief I
danger Is from infection and the posts!- [
bility that the knifeblade penetrated the
patient’s lung. The knife was thrust
through one rib and cutting upward,
severed another. The wound is two;
inches deep It is an inch and a half ■
from the heart.
Vason. who is held at the police sta-1
tion without bond, refused Friday to give
out a statement, saying he had been ad- j
vised not to talk. He is quoted as say-j
ing Thursday night that Felder was the
aggressor in the fight, drew his own j
knife and cut himself with it in the'
struggle. Vason had been drinking, say’
the. officers who arrested him.
Accounts of the fight between Felder:
and Vason agree in the main. Felder I
had been attending a meeting of the
i Savannah anti-recall interests in the
room of Rev. C. M- Ledbetter, a Guyton. |
Ga., minister, on the first floor of thej
Kimball house, room 106.
About 8:30 o’clock he left the room ;
to go to the campaign headquarters of
Povernor Nat E. Harris, which are on
the same floor of the Kimball house
on the other side in rooms 119-21-23.
As he was walking along the hallway
alone, he met Vason and another man
! near the governor's headquarters. The
! other man has not been identified. He is '
described by several people who saw j
him as a young man, tall, slender and of
dark complexion. Vason refuses to give
his name.
The account of what happened then,
as given by Mr. Felder to his friends
immediately after the stabbing, is that
Vason stopped Felder and said, “You’re
the damned that defeated the Sa-
vannah recall bill today,” or that he
said to the man with him, "Ttßs is Tom
Felder, the damned that killed our
recall bill."
According to Mr. Arnow, however, it
was Vason’s assertion that Felder was
a liar that brought on the fight.
Felder and Vason fought for a moment
in the hallway, then through the door
into pne of the headquarters rooms and
fell over a trunk, with Vason on top of
Felder, according to Mr. Arndw, w-ho
pulled Vason away. Liles grabbed Fel
der. but both of them broke away and
rushed at each other again. Arnow and
Liles once more pulled them apart.
With the two men facing each other.
Felder suddenly said, "I'm stabbed.”
Blood was streaming down his trousers.
Arnow let go pf Vason and he turned
and left the room. Arnow and Liles got
Felder ito another room and called Dr.
Green, the house physician. Felder was
then taken to St. Joseph's infirmary.
Dr. Willis Westmoreland was called
and with Dr. Green operated Immediate
ly on Mr. Felder, removing a clot of con
gealed blood from the wound. Dr. West
moreland refused to allow an Interview

The senate Friday morning passed the
bill of Senator Lawrence, of the First,
providing for three additional judges for
the court of appeals. If this bill passes

shipment into the state of alcohol for j
use in the manufacture of commerce and |
for preserving purposes, passed without

the bill in no manner whatever would
conflict with the present Georgia pro
hibition law.
The senate passed a 1&ill changing the
name of Warsaw, a resort nine miles

The three additional judges of the
court of appeals, under the terms of
the bill, would be elected at the coming

BDOGHT FROM AMERICA
H. G. Hester Gives Figures on
World's Takings for Year
Ending July 31
(Bv Associated Press.)
NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 6.—The world’s
takings of American cotton during th-3
year ended July 31 was placed at 11,-
171,000 bales by Secretary H. G.' Hester,
of the New Orleans cotton exchange, in
his annual report issued today. Tnese
figures compare with takings of 13,-
519,000 the previous season, and 11,512,-
GOC bales two seasons ago.
Southern mill takings placed at 4,-
047,000 bales, bfioke all former rec
ords, according to the report, as did tak
ings of 505,000 bales by Japanese, Chi
nese and East Indian mills.
Secretary Hester placed the total val
ue of the commercial crop for the year
at $765,700,560, compared to $593,432,-
978 the preceding year, and $977,844,114
the year before. “These values,” the
report explained, “are for cotton only,
and do not include the value of the cotton
seed, which this year more than any past
year, constitutes a specially important
item. The value of the 1915 crop with
seed added would total $958,200,000; the
previous year $749,384,978, and the j’ear
before $1,134,444,114.”
The country’s commercial crop for the
year was 12,938,256 bales, a decrease un
der the previous year of 2,169,755 bales
and 1,944,237 bales under two seasons
ago.
“Os the decrease in deliveries under
last year,” Mr. Hester reported, "fifty
six and nine-tenths per cent was in Tex
as 27.2 per cent in the other gulf states,
and 15.9 per cent in the Atlantic states.
In grade, the crop ranked wtih the best
during the last five years, averaging mid
dling to strict middling, and it was
marked by a scarcity of low grades and
irregular cotton. The average price for
middling for the year was 11.99 cents
per pound, compared to 7.94 last year and
13.49 the year before.
“A short crop and increased con
sumption demand, especially from Amer
ican mills, offset in a measure the influ
ence of the European war and the large
carry-over at the end of the previous sea
son, resulting in restoration of values to
a more normal basis. The records in li
cate that not only was every bale
brought into sight from the fields con
sumed. but that the visible and invisible
supply le«t over from last year was
trenched upon to the extent of almost
2,000,000 bales. In brief, the problem
of war and the enormous growth of
1914-15 have thus far been met to an,
extent more satisfactory than anticipat-1
ed by the most sanguine.”

gar Stripling, the famous prisoner re
cently pardoned by Governor Harris, is
spending several days-here, the guest of
his brothers, J. P. Stripling and Charles
Stripling, who live here. During his
visit here he is calling on the many
friends of his brothers, and thanking
them for the sympathy they have show

for his pardon during Governor Brown’s
administration, to know that he was
grateful to them, and that, with no feel
ing of resentment toward anybody, but
with a determination to make amends
for his own mistakes and do his best
fully to meet the duties and requirements
of a good citizen.
He says he his had several positions
offered him. including that of chief of
police of Danville, Va., which he held
at the time of his arrest, but he will not
decide what he will do until he has had
time to mend his impaired health and
get his bearings

SECOND PATENT GRANTED
TO ST. LOUISIAN ON DE
VICE TO DO AWAY
WITH TRUSSES
Francis J Stuart, president of the
Plapao Laboratories, Inc., St. Louis
Mo., has recently been granted a second
patent or. an ingenious device on which
a first patent was granted some seven
years ago. and which is known by the
trade-marked name of "PLAPAO
PADS,” through the medium of which
ruptured people can effectively treat
themselves, right in the privacy of the
Lome and without delay from work.
The PLAPAO-PAD is entirely differ
ent from the article commercially
known as a truss. It is made of a
strong flexible material which conforms
perfectly to every movement of the
bedy. and is therefore muefi more com
fortable to wear. The inner surface
is made self-adhesive purposely to pre
vent slipping and to hold the distended
muscles securely in . place while the
PLAPAO —an absorbent, astringent,
medication contained in the reservoir
of the pad—is kept continuously applied
to the weakened and atrophied muscles,
infusing them with new life and con
tractile strength. As Mr. Stuart lias
been making the PLAPAO-PADS for a
long time, he is, no doubt, in position to
send reading matter to anyone who will
write him. —(Advt.)
