PAGE SIX
REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS
PUTTING FORTH ALL EFFORTS.
KEY HELD BY SIX STATES.
No matter who is elected president
of the United States in November,
the next senate will probably be in
political harmony with him, a care
ful survey of the situation with re
gard to this autumn’s senatorial
campaign appears to indicate. The
managers of the campaigns of Sena
tor Harding and Gov. Cox will not
only battle to elect their candidate
for president, but also to insure each
a senate in which the majority will
be of his own political faith.
Close Election Seems Possible.
Should either Cox or Harding win
by a large majority this same land
slide will very likely carry with it
an overwhelming control of both
houses of congress. If the election is
close the senatorial results in a few
doubtful states should be sufficiently
influenced by the national tide to
carry the successful candidate at'
least a clear working majority in the
senate. ’
The voters of the country are to
elect 32 senators in November. Of
the 64 members of the upper cham-l
ber who will retain their seats 39|
are democrats and 34 are republi-|
cans. The democrats, therefore, must |
elect 19 senators in order to have!
a working majority in the next sen-|
ate, and the .republicans, to retain
their present majority of one, must |
put 15 G. O. P. men across, 1
Senatorial Tie Is Possible, ]
Should the balloting result in the |
democrats electing 18 men and the |
republicans 14 the senate would be
a tie, and the vice president, wheth
er Mr. Roosevelt or Mr. Coolidge, |
would become the most important|
single factor in the legislative body. |
It is virtually safe to wager that|
democratic senators will be elected in |
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Geor-|
gia, Louisiana, Missouri, North Car-|
olina, Oklahoma and South Carolina, |
and it is just as safe to predict that|
republicans will be e]ecte‘d to the|
senate in lowa, Kansas, North Da-|
kota, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Wash-!‘
ington and Wisconsin. !
Four States Will Swing Control. |
Past records for political constan
cy makes it possible to venture the |
prediction that democratic senators|
will be elected from the states of
Arizona, Colorado, Kentucky, Mary
land, Nevada and Oregon, and it is?
just as reasonable to expect that Cal-|
ifornia, New Hampshire, South Da
kota and Utah will give republican |
candidates sufficient votes to send!
them to Washington. |
Connecticut, Idaho, Illinois, New!
York, Indiana and Ohio are the six|
states in which the battle for the con- |
trol of the next senate will be waxzod}
and decided. The party that wins four |
of these six doubtful states will, in’,
all political likelihood, have control |
of the senate, l

HARDWICK JUSTLY ENTITLED TO
THE GOVERNORSHIP
(Editorial From the Athenf Hen_lt!). s R
By every moral law Mr. Hardwick
has fairly won the right to the nom
ination for governor, and we feel
sure that the people will again ex
press their wishes in no uncertain
terms. He is a man thoroughly
scholed in governmental affairs and
if there ever was a moment which
challenged the greatest efficiency in
every department of our state gov
ernment it is today. With four years
of service in the Georgia legislature,
sixteen years in congress from the
Tenth district and six years in the
United States semate, Thomas W.
Hardwick is peculiarly fitted for the
high office of governor of the empire
state of the south, and will bring to
bear in this exalted position a com
bination of experience and mental
ity rarely given to this high station.
The Herald had hoped after the
recent primary that politics, for the
present, had been put aside and that

|STRANGE SECT CLAIM THAT|
| GOD HAS SENT THEM. SAY |
i “JEHOVAH PROVIDES.” ‘
| oot
{ BANGOR, Me.—A strange litt]el
| caravan of six men and eighteen
| young women are gathered here!
from distant parts of the world to
' begin a wandering which they be
' lieve will eventually lead them to
iPa]estine in time to witness the sec
iond coming of the Lord. They ex
pext to augment their forces by hun
‘dreds and thousands before the Holy
Land is reached.
Meanwhile they remain nameless
pilgrims, who have severed all
home ties, and profess to have left|
behind them all worldly desires and
pleasures, They are living in tents|
here until they set out or journey
point to point in three large automo-|
biles to their first stopping place,
being in the neighborhood of Bos-l
ton,
Claim “Jehovah Provided.”
Their leader, a tall, gaunt, gray
whiskered individual, had already
created considerable interest in
northern Maine by the practice of
faith healing. Hundreds visit his tent
seeking cures from various ailments.
Perhaps the most astounding fact
about this sect is their ability to pro
vide for themselves on the proposed
journey to Jerusalem. |
~ “We neither beg, borrow nor
steal,” said the chieftain of the lit
’tle band. “We don’t lack for any
thing. Jehovah provides. We know
‘that God has sent us on this mission,
'and he works on the hearts of peo
ple. The expressman drove up to our
camp yesterday and left two bags of
| potatoes. I have no idea who sent
them.”
Eat Only One Meal a Day.
A kettle of boiling water, in which
were poured two cans of cocoagand
a few loaves of bread cons?tute
breakfast for the pilgrims. Only one
other meal was served each day, us
ually consisting of potatoes baked
in the open, bread, and whatever is
brought by neighboring residents,
occasionally a few strips of meat, but
usually vegetables. :
“Most of us started from Philadel
phia,” said the leader. “Our first
stop was Washburn, Maine, where
we were scheduled to hold a number
of meetings at a certain date. Now,
we are actually on our way to Pales
tine.”
The elder plays mechanic as well
as preacher. He repaired the motor
of an automobile which had been
functioning poorly. The cars were
bought second-hand and- have seen
considerable wear. He said that the
automobiles would be sold when the
necessity arrived and his following
would travel on foot, by boat, train,
camels, and in the end .possibly by
I airnlane.

l Thomas W. Hardwick, by the voice
‘of the people, had come within four
votes of the goal of the nomination
’for governor of Georgia, leading his
’next opponent by twenty unit votes
‘and approximately ten thousand
‘popular votes. The decision was soO
conclusive it was hoped that his
nomination would be ratified with
out protest. However, under the
technicality of the Neill primary law
—_Mr. Hardwick falling short of the
paltry few county unit votes—the
glorious old state of Georgia is forc
ed to go to the expense of leaving
her factories, her commercial estab

ARLINGTON GIRL l
KILLED HERSELF
DISAPPOINTED IN A LOVE AF
FAIR _MISS JEMIMA LAW.
RENCE COMMITTED SUICIDE.
The current issue of the Arling
ton Courier prints the particulars of
the recent suicide in that town of
Miss Jemima Eddie Lawrence, who
shot herself through th_e head with
a revolver, dying almost instantly, at
the residence of Mr. and Mrs, A. H.
Singleton, where she boarded. She
was employed as saleslady at the
Bee Hive store, and at the end of
the day’s work and following a con
versation with Mr. Dean H. Baxter,
with whom she had been sweethearts
for some time, she tried to borrow
a pistol from several different par
ties before succeeding in getting
one. She then went to her boarding
house and while at the supper table
fainted and was carried to her room.
When she was revived and while
Mr. Singleton and family were fin~
ishing their supper she secured a pen
cil and paper and in view of Mr. Sin
gleton wrote the following note to
her two sisters and their husbands:
“Dear Irene, Roy, Louise and El
bert: I am leaving here tomorrow.
You will hear why. God guide and
bless you all. Dean is the full cause;
make him pay for it, if I do love
‘the ground he walks on, Your sister,
'Eddie.”
} Laying the note on the dresser she
'shut the door, locked it and went to
'her trunk for the pistol. Mr. Single
'ton suspecting her purpose tried to
get the door open, but before he
!succeeded in effecting entrance she
fired twice, missing the first
time but the second bullet entered
her head and she was dead within a
few minutes.
Miss Lawrence and Mr. Baxter
had been going together for quite
awhile and it is said they had plann
ed to marry, but the latter married
another the day before the tragedy,
in which she took her life.
The deceased was 21 years of age,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. R. Law
rence, who have been dead several
years, and grand-daughter of the
late Mrs. M. H. Thigpen, She is sur
vived by two sisters, Mrs. Roy Beck
ham, of Arlington, and Mrs. W. E.
Johnson, of Leary, and by a num
ber of other relatives.
Funeral services were held at Mr.
Singleton’s residence, conducted by
Rev. H. M. Melton. Many sorrowing
friends were present at the last sad
rites,

_To look one’s best and feel one’s best
is to enjoy an imside bath each morn]

and poisonous toxins before it is abs

when it burns, leaves behind 'a cer

in the form of ashes, so the food and
drink taken each day leave in the all

indigestible - material, which if hot
eliminated, form toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in
tended to suck in only nourishment

are told to drink every morning upon

teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in
