THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIMES-RECORDER. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 10. 1910. HUDSON IS NAMED FOR GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA. Such is Rumor in Circles Political. Tom Hudson a Candi date Upon Whom Fac tions Could Unite. Hon. Thomas G. Hudson for Gover nor of Georgia, as one upon whom the friends of both Governor Joseph M. Brown and former Gov. Hoke Smith could unite harmoniously and, stand ing shoulder to shoulder, elect to the high office of chief executive in whirlwind campaign. Such is the rather startling, though none the less pleasing, news reaching Americas yesterday from that politi cal vortex—Atlanta. Governor Thomas G. Hudson; sure ly it sounds all right. And with such a candidate, back ed by the serried hosts of Brown and Smith, with no possibility of a Jones in the race. Democracy will win in a walk. Political circles in Americus—and we have such circles here—heard the report yesterday that friends of Gov. Brown and Mr. Smith had suggested Col. Hudson for governor as a man upon whom both factions and all their allied forces could very readily get together. Such action would obtiviate a pollt lea! campaign in Georgia, such as now threatens. It is not known h re how the report started, but prominent citizens were discussing it and with evident favor as might be expected. Col. Hudson Is popular throughout the state, where his ability is reoeg nized, and his thousands of warm friends would rally to his standard for the office of governor, or any other for which the genial and popular State Commissioner of Agriculture migh aspire. * Col. Hudson Is at his home here, slightly ill and confined to his room, and hits neither affirmed or denied the reports current. DIDN’T SIGN PLEDGE IN FIGHT ON THE TRUST farmer Wilson of Sumter is Care free. BOUGHT FARM OFF THE DeSOTO PLANTATION. Another South Carolinian to Move to Sumter. Mr. S. J. Wilson, a prominent bun! ness man of Greenville county, South Carolina, yesterday bought a block of 459 acres of the De Soto plantation through the Southern Hand Company or Americus. Mr. Wilson's son will remove from South Carolina at an early date, and engage In farming on the place Just bought for him. Other South Curolinians have thoir eyes on farms in Sumter county and It is quite probable that fieveral ad ditlotml families will remove from that •tate to the vicinity of Americus in the near future. These are all Intel ligent progressive farmers and will live on the places they contempate (buying. A Natural Strength Giver Ordinary tonics that merely supply food material and give ar tificial strength by stimulation are never lasting in their effects be cause they do not remove the ca uza cf the ill health.

Jama's Expectorant (a an Imrahtabla medicine for Coughs, Coldj, Bronchitis, Croup, Whooping Cough, Pleurisy, ate. . MJ. Jarrett J. Wilson is one of Sum ter's substantial farmers who do not worry over the battle royal between the people and the meat trust, though his sympathies are with the people in their righteous war. Personally the meat trust does not worry him a little hit. A day or two ago .Mr. Wilson was in a little city near Americus, and was invited by citizens there to sign an agreement to abstain from eating meat for thirty days. "Why should I do tills," Mr. Wil son asked, "when I have In my own smokehouse at home more meat of my own raising than my family can consume this year, while my farm hands are alike well supplied.” Then the pledge signers knew tie was a Stumer county farmer, and said no more about It. And what Mr. Wilson said was lit erally true, us ills friends and neigh hors will attests. Thousands of pounds of fine hams, shoulders, middlings, etc. are in his smoke house. He operates nine plows on his fine farm near Americus, and all of his negro tenants have plenty of meat for the year as they have ev ery year. For it is the rule on the Wilson plantation that everything consumed there must be produced on the farm; nothing must be bought. And even some of the farm hands have a sur plus of meat which they sell to oth ers less fortunate and provident. "Just now we are getting three to four dozen eggs daily from our poul try yard" continued Mr. Wilson,’ and these are more than we need for our table. Then, too, we have an abun dance of pure milk. Wo never have coffee o nthe table unless friends we are entertaining desire It.” With barns filled to the roof with corn oats and feedstuff; a smokehouse filled with pure home-raised meat; barrels of fine syrup, and plenty eLe toeat, Mr. Wilson has no need to wor ry over trust prices.

Middletown, N. Y„ Feg. 7.—Garbed In Japanese costume, Miss Frances Marie Clemson. daughter o( Mr. and Mrs. George N. Clemson, of this city, was married to William Edward Cross of Chester, Pa., ot the Clemson home. There were 390 guests, including many from New York and Brooklyn. The bride's assistants also wore Japaneso costumes she recently brought from Japan. The wedding dinner was served in Japanese tearoom built for the oc casion, in which every metal fixture, Including steam radiators, eloctrlc lights and and Irons in the fireplace, were gold plated. The room and fur niture were of teakwood, covered with cherry blossoms. The ceiling was hand-painted by Japanese artists Im ported for the purpose. Thirty Japanese waiters served the wedding dinner. Examination is Held of Oi Those Desiring Po sitions in Work. One hundred and twenty applicants for places as census enumerators for the work here in Sumter county were examined yesterday by Clerk A. B. Howard, of the Americas postoffice and report thereon will be made to Inspector Rickey o ftlte Third dis trict, at Fitzgerald. Of the applicants examined Satur day, it is said that 35 were white men and S3 negroes. Of course such a large number of applicants will not be required, and the big bttticli will lie thinned to a stand ere the counting begins early In April. Americus and the county as well will show a decided gain in population an Increase that will reflect most cred Itably, when the census Is taken in April; provided, of course, that the count is accurately made and both city and county get full credit at the hands of enumerators. It Is not known, even yet, who will do the counting here, although other towns, probably more alive to their Interest, are seeing to It that capable men are appointed. Americus will probably “just trust to luck” as she does In the way of getting railroads and factories. There is considerable speculation as to what the population of the Third district will be this time. The census ot 1900, ten years ago, gave the Third district a population of 172,253, where as It should he 250,000 now. A few minutes delay in treating some cases of croup, even the length of time it takes to go for a doctor of ten proves dangerous. The safest way Is to keep Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in tho house, and at first in dication of croup give the child a dose. Pleasing to tako and always cures. Sold by all dealers.

One who has not seen the progress made there recenty can scarcely im aglne the work accomplished by Supt Christian and the large force of con victs employed there during the past several weeks. A streak of ruts has been transform ed into a magnificient boulevard al most the entire length. This road is among the most Impor tant in the county, penetrating a fine agricultural section and reaches four flourishing towns, the people of which make Americus their market The Improvement of this road to the highest point was a necessity, as one can readily see. Beginning at the Willet place two miles out of the city, the Improve ment Is at once apparent. Supt.

Captain George Rochfuss was held up at a pistol’s point by two men In the early hours. One of them scampered off with a pear] and diamond pin from the captain's cravat. The army man was knocked into unconsciousness, i but tlie scuffle attracted a policeman, who chased the thieves. He caught one fugitive, hut.said tlie saw his pris oner tear the stones from 'heir setting and cram them into his mouth. Tho stomach pump was brought into play to roeove rthe gems. It failed to have the desired effect either on this occa sion or wiien the operation was re peated after the man was taken in court with an attack of cramps. a straight shoot of two miles Is made The great hil beyond the Willett vnn r coil branch has bee ncut down and the MJ11 dirt used for a “fil" in the swamp this side. On tothe Council place, five miles away, is a splendid stretch of highway of uniform width of thirty feet, level as a floor and as hard as can be made At this point the road gracefully curves to the right and will be con tlnued on to Leslie, where It connects with tlie De Soto road Much of the work required beyond tho Council place has been done al ready, and the new ‘ Leslie Road" of fourteen miles will very soon be fin ished. And no road In the state of Georgia will surpass It. Like others of Sum ter's splendid roads it is being built for durability, and when once com l'loted it can be maintained at trifling cost by the use of the split-log drag which will keep it In perfect condi tion.
