COX FLAYS FOES
OF 1920 CJMPfIiGN
IN FK SPEECHES
WHEELING, W. Va„ Aug. 14.
Governor Cox today threw his force
into the presidential campaign with
five speeches here and through Ohio,
all flaying what he termed the Re
publican “reactionary candidate and
leaders,” and supporting the League
of Nations as the premier Demo
cratic cause. 8
The Democratic candidate stormed
the Republican position, attacked the
“senatorial oligarchy" which he said,
was trying to add the presidency to
its domination, denounced proposals
for separate peace with Germany as
“perfidy,” and charged that “a few
men were banded together trying to
buy the presidency.” Millions upon
millions of dollars. Governor Cox
added, are being taken in the Re
publican campaign fund.
That Senator Harding, the Repub
lican nominee, is surrounded by a
senatorial “ring” was asserted by
Governor Cox. The Democratic nom
inee added, in a fling at the Harding
front porch campaign, that he could
not be “kept muzzled” on his front
porch by any “ring.”
It was the first big day of cam
paigning undertaken the Demo
cratic candidate. Motoring from Co
lumbus early this morning, he made
three brief addresses en route, at
Zanesville, Cambridge and St. Clairs
ville, Ohio; addressed the West Vir
ginia Democratic convention late to
day and a big public meeting tonight,
on the river front. All through Ohio
he was given informal receptions,
with waving groups gathered at al
most every village, many gay with
flags, and shaking hands with hun
dreds.
The league was foremost in all of
the governor’s addresses. The Re
publican leaders, he charged, are be
hind a “smoke screen of hypocrisy
. . . for one thing, pure and simple,
administration spoils.”
The governor also stressed what he
declared was the fight between “re
actionary Republicans” and progres
sive democracy," and predicted his
election.
All of the governor’s references to
the league won high place in ap
plause.
"The outstanding question of this
campaign,” he said to the state con
vention, is whether we are or are
not going to keep faith with the
boys boys who died in France.
EXPRESS RATES
INCREASED 12.5
PERCENTBYI.C.C.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—An in
crease of 12.5 per cent in express
rates was authorized by the inter
state commerce commission.
The request of the American Rail
way Express company for increases
averaging 25.16 were found not justi
fied by the commission with the ex
ception that rates on milk and cream
may be equallized with those con
temporaneously applied by the rail
road lines between the same points. .
The 12.5 per cent increase does not
take into consideration the increase
in wages of approximately $30,000,-
000 a year recently awarded by the
railroad labor board.
The commission held that no ade
quate basis had been found to sup
port the request of shippers for the
exception of certain commodities
from the application of increased
rates. The commission also held that
a prescription of “terminal to ter
minal” rates to apply in the absence
of pick up and delivery service of
deductions from the published rates
where either service is not rendered,
was warranted.
The increased rates may be made
effective upon not less than one day’s
notice by the filing of schedules with
the commission. The express com
pany also was authorized to file
blanket schedules making the in
creased commodity rates effective.
The complete tariffs, however, must
be submitted within 90 days.
The 12.5 per cent increase, it was
estimated unofficially, will add ap
proximately $35,500,000 to the annual
income of the American Railway Ex
press company.
U. S. ROADS IN CANADA
GRANTED RATE INCREASES
OTTAWA, Aug. 14. —The Dominion
board of railway commissioners today
granted Increases in through rates
to United States roads in Canada to
conform with those recently approved
by the interstate commerce commis
sion at Washington. These increases
apply to all commodities except coal
and coke.
Rat, Mistaken for a
Burglar, Causes Hurry
Call on the Police
A crash of broken dishes in the
dining room of Mr. and Mrs. L. C.
Culbert’s home at 2 o’clock Satur
day morning startled the occupants
of the house and caused a hurry call
for the police. The intruder evident
ly had no fear of capture, for pend
ing the arrival of the police, several
more crashes were heard, and when
Call Officers Hudson and McWilliams
arrived on the scene excitement was
running high. An investigation
showed that the intruder was a big
rat which had become penned in the
china closet. In its efforts to get
away it had destroyed a number of
fine pieces of china. The rodent was

Georgia Is Second
In New Forecast of
Bumper Peanut Crop
WASHINGTON.—The peanut
■.op this year will be almost
1,000,000 bushels larger than last
/ear, according to the forecast of
the department of agriculture
from July conditions. Alabama
will have almost 11,000,00 bush
els, Georgia 7,500,000 bushels, and
Virginia a little more than 5,000,-
000 bushels. »
VEGETABLES AND
FRUITS SHOW A
DROP IN PRICES
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—Fruit
and vegetable prices are generally
lower than at this time a year ago,
the department of agriculture an
nounced today in its weekly review
of market conditions.
According to the department’s fig
ures, potatoes are down to $1 a bush
el at some western shipping points.
This price, the department says,
hardly pays the cost of production
unless the yield per acre is above
the average. Eastern farmers are
getting $1.50 a bushel, while city
dealers are paying $5 to $6 a barrel
for potatoes. New York is the larg
est producer, with Michigan, Wiscon
sin and Minnesota producing nearly
as many, followed closely by Maine
and Pennsylvania.
Onions, the department said, are
selling at prices considered low In
pre-war days. Early apples are re
ported selling at $1.50 to $2 a bushel
in city markets. New York state's
apple crop is three times that of
last season, the department reports.
The peach crop is reported some
what smaller than last year. The
southern crop failed to reach antici
pations. In New York, New Jersey
and Michigan the crop is reported
larger than a year ago and the qual
ity good. The pear crop shows a 10
per cent increase over last year,
though California, the heaviest pro
ducer, shows a decrease. New York,
Michigan and Ohio show large gains.
The sweet potato crop will equal
last year’s. Cantaloupes are report
ed selling at unusually low prices:
watermelons, .because of a half crop,
are bringing good nrices.
GENERAL INCREASE SHOWN
IN THE PRICE OF CLOTHING
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—Clothing
prices increased more than 15 per
cent in principal cities between De
cember and June, a labor department
investigation just completed, showed
today. In some cities the increase
was more than 25 per cent despite
sensational price slashings indulged
in by merchants throughout the
United States this spring. Raw woo!
and cotton prices went down, while
finished clothing prices were going
up, according to reports to the agri
culture department.
Tennessee Speaker
. Wires Wilson He Is
Against Suffrage
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 15.—Re
plying to a message from Pres
ident Wilson expressing the hope
that the Tennessee house would rat
ify the suffrage amendment “in the
interest of national harmony and
vigor and of the establishment of
the leadership of America in all lib
eral policies,” Speaker Seth M. Wal
ker telegraphed the chief executive
that he did not believe the men of
Tennessee would “surrender honest
convictions for political expediency
or harmony.”
Mr. Walker told the president that
he did not attempt to express the
opinion of other members of the
house, but spoke for himself alone,
declaring that his views on the
amendment were contrary to those
of Mr. Wilson.
The speaker is the leader of the
opposition in the house and the suf
fragists have regarded his influence
?.s one of the most difficult obstacles
to overcome.
Until the legislature convened last
Monday he had been counted among
those favorable to ratification and
his announcement then that he would
not support it occasioned keen dis
appointment in the suffrage camp.
Although many members of the
assembly were spending the week
end at their homes, pro and anti
suffrage workers today continued
their campaign among those who re
mained in Nashville. Both the sen
ate, which ratified the amendment
yesterday, and the house, were in
adjournment until Monday afternoon.

Nine N. Y.-Frisco Roads
Could Be Made From New
Federal Aid Highways
Since Georgia ranked fourth
among states of the nation in in
creased highway building under fed
eral aid, it is particularly interest
ing to read the staggering statistics
recently issued at Washington, show
ing how tremendously the good
roads movement has progressed since
Uncle Sam took a hand.
For instance, according to Thomas
H. McDonald, chief of the bureau of
public roads, if all throughfares
started since federal aid began were
linked, end to end, they would make
a highway nine times the distance
between New York and San Fran
cisco. Uncle Sam’s share in the
huge undertaking is already greater
than the expense of building the
Panama canal.
“The participation of the national
government in highway improve
ment,” says a department of agri
culture statement, “marks a depar
ture from a policy, which had been
followed for nearly a century. Fed
eral co-operation of an approximate
ly fifty-fifty basis has counted more
than any other factor in initiating
highway construction that is being
carried on under adequate supervi
sion and in accordance with pro
gram co-ordinating local, state and
national needs.
“Second only in importance to the
size of the present road building
program is the excellence of the
roads being built. Sixty per cent of
the total allotment of federal funds
which has been approved to date
will be spent for roads of such
durable types as bituminous con
crete, Portland cement concrete, and
vitrified brick. These roads when
built will increase by 7,600 miles
the total of 14,400 miles of roads
of this class which existed in the
United States before the federal aid
road law was passed. But these
figures by no means represent the
total mileage affected.
“In 1915 the total expenditure for
roads and bridges by all the state
and local governments was $267,000,-
000, while this year the estimated
funds available for main road con
struction are nearly three times that
amount, or $633,000,000. In all, fed
eral funds to the amount of $266,750,-
000 have been apportioned among
forty-eight states without a sug
gestion of favoritism, so adequate
are the provisions for a just ap
portionment. „
“Up to June 30, 1920, 2,985 pro
pects, involving a total of 29,319
miles of road, had been approved
by the secretary of agriculture.
The preliminary estimates of the
cost of these projects is approxi
mately $384,900,000, of which approx
imately $163,841,000 will be approv
ed as federal aid. On the same date
2 116 projects, representing approx
imately 15,955 miles, had either been
completed or were under construc
tion. The estimated total cost of
these projects in various stages of
construction and completed is $200,-
000,00 0.”

CAMP GORDON
. TO BE SALVAGED
IN JUNE, 1921
The salvaging of Camp Gordon
will not begin until June, 1921, ac
cording to advices received Saturday
by Congressman W. D. Upshaw. The
information came from Congressman
Upshaw’s offices In Washington, D.
C., where a statement was made by
Colonel Fred G. Kelland, of the gen
eral staff of the war department, to
the effect that no active salvaging
operations would begin at the camp
until next June.
Caretakers will be placed in charge
of the camp until that time, it is
stated, for the removal of troops to
Camp Jackson will be inaugurated
within the next few months. An
nouncement of the transfer was made
some days ago.
Several months ago congress pass
ed a resolution authorizing the sal
vaging of Camp Gordon and several
other similar establishments, but
through the unceasing efforts of
Senator Hoke Smith and Congress
man Upshaw, backed by the business
interests and citizens of Atlanta, the
resolution was so modified so as to
fix June, 1921, as the time when the
salvaging operations should begin.
A few days ago the war depart
ment issued orders to the effect that
the razing of the buildings at the
camp should begin In December as
soon as the troops now quartered
there had been transferred to Camp
Jackson or some otner permanent
camp. Strong representations were
made to the department by Senator
Smith and Congressman ' Upshaw,
who called attention to the provisions
of the congressional resolution al
lowing the camp to stand unmolest
ed until June, 1921.
The statement from Colonel Kel
land indicates that the department
has taken official cognizance of the
provisions of the resolution and will
modify its orders accordingly, thus
affording further opportunity for ef
forts to make a permanent military
establishment out of Camp Gordon.
Loan for Georgia Tech
Is Planned to Offset
Loss of Appropriation
As a means of meeting the finan
cial crisis which faced the Georgia
School of Technology as a result of
the legislature having failed to pass
its emergency appropriation of $125,-
000, the board of trustees of the
school in an executive session which
lasted for several hours Saturday,
decided to issue notes amounting to
SIOO,OOO, seek to have same indorsed
by persons of financial ability, cash
these notes at the banks and pay off
same out of an appropriation which
it is anticipated next year’s legisla
ture will make.
As a basis for this action it was
said that the trustees took into con
sideration the fact that the house of
representatives of the recent gen
eral assembly passed an emergency
appropriation of $125,000 for Tech,
that the senate cut $25,000 off of
this appropriation, and approved
$100,000; but that the house failed
to concur in the senate’s action when
it tabled all of the deficiency ap
propriations for the state’s educa
tional institutions.
Indorsements of notes aggregat
ing $8,400 as a starter toward the
fund of SIOO,OOO were pledged by
trustees present at the meeting, as
follows:
John W. Grant, $1,000; ExGovern
or Nat E. Harris, $1,000; W. E. Sim
mons, Lawrenceville, $1,000; Clark
Howell, $1,000; Hal G. Nowell, $1,000;
E. R. Hodgson, SI,OOO for himself
and SI,OOO for a member of his fam
ily; Governor Dorsey, $200; Dr. M. L.
Brittain, S2OO.

COLOSSAL SCHEME
MUCGLEDK
TO 0. SAAID BABE
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Aug. 14.
A colossal scheme to smuggle nar
cotic drugs into the United States
i s believed to have been unearthed
here through the arrest by officers
of the Internal revenue department
of a man giving his name as M. C.
Johnson, and his home in Alabama,
morphine valued at more than
$4,000 being found in the suit case of
the prisoner.
Before making the arrest the of
ficers contracted with Johnson to
purchase ten ounces of the drug
for SBSO, they having approached
him at the terminal station and sig
nified their desire to secure a sup
ply of drugs.
After being locked up Johnson
sent for the officers and is said to
have made a confession and signed
an affidavit revealing the source of
the heretofore mysterious supply of
narcotics with which Atlanta, Mem
phis, Louisville, Knoxville, Chatta
nooa and other cities have been
flooded for several months. Promi
nent physicians, druggists and “men
higher up” in many southern cities
were named by Johnson as being
connected with the illegal drug traf
fic, along with details of the work
ings of the gang of smugglers, it is
said.
While the officers of the revenue
department decline to make any of
the revelations public, they admit
that following the arrest of John
son agents were dispatched to Mem
phis and a man reported to be an im
portant personage in the illegal
traffic, was taken into custody along
With a quantity of drugs.
The affidavit of Johnson, it is re
ported, traces the sources of the
drug supply reaching the south to
a border city and into an adjoining
country. It also names the leaders,
the men who procure the drug, those
who dispose of it in this country
anq the manner in which It is
brought across the border.
Names of all these men are with
held by the revenue officers and sev
eral more important arrests are ex
pected soon, it being stated that in
dividuals in Memphis, New Or
leans, Atlanta, Louisville and other
cities are now under surveillance.

City Farm Arrives
On Job in Taxicab
OKLAHOMA CITY. Some

wasn’t. It was a twentieth cen

bureau that Simpson would pay
$l5O a month and board for a
good farm hand. He worked
about long enough to earn the
money the taxi cost him and then
left, said Simpson, in relating the
incident.

Hoke Smith’s Speech
In Conyers Won
Him Many Votes
CONYERS TIMES: “That was
the plainest, most commonsense
political speech I ever heard,” was
the usual comment of those who
listened to Senator Hoke Smith
when he spoke here last Tuesday
morning; and usually, too, the
comment ended with a declara
tion of support for Georgia’s sen
ior senator.
Absolutely devoid of any per
sonalities or any flowery or high
sounding phrases, the senator’s
speech was in reality a common
sense talk to commonsense peo
ple on the issues in which com
monsense people are vitally inter
ested. He proved to his hearers
that he was vitally interested in
the things that concerned them,
that he had given deep study to
those things, and that he, more
than any other man possibly could
be, was better fitted to look after
Georgia’s interests in Washing
ton.
Senator Smith made hundreds of
new friends among our people and
it is altogether likely that Rock
dale will be found in the Smith
column on September 8.
HOLDER, HALTED
BY RAINS, SPOKE
AT ADAIRSVILLE
ADAIRSVILLE, Ga„ Aug. 14. —Pre-
vented by heavy rains from reach
ing either Dalton or Ringgold, where
he was to speak today, John N. Hol
der, candidate for governor, delivered
an address this morning to the peo
ple of Adairsville.
The storm kept Mr. Holder from
getting any farther than Adairsville,
following his speeches yestetday at
Calhoun and Cartersville, but, in
spite of the fact that his address
here was not announced and that it
was largely impromptu, a good-sized
crowd of about a hundred voters
heard him. Mr. Holder was intro
duced by J. A. Price, former repre
sentative in the state legislature
from Bartow county.
Discussing the issues of the guber
natorial campaign, Mr. Holder said
in part:
“It is impossible for me to dis
cuss all of the highly constructive
work of the Democratic forces who
have control of affairs in congress,
but there is one great reason why
the Democratic party should be re
tained in power. It was under the
leadership of the Democratic admin
istration that we helped to win the
greatest war ever fought in the an
nals of the world. Investigations
have been made in the past year in
an effort to find out something shady
or crooked in the conduct of this
war. but nothing has developed, and
nothing will develop out of these in
vestigations.
“No force has contributed more to
wards the accomplishment of this
everlasting result than did the boys
of our own land and country who
were on foreign soil fighting beneath
the blue skies of France, fighting
among strangers and in a strange
land. The soil of weeping France
has been crimsoned with the most
precious blood of these heroes. But
the Republican party has done noth
ing but fuss am. scold ever since
that was won.
Two Men Are Stabbed
In Dipping Vat Fight
ADRIAN, Ga„ Aug. 14.—A fight
took place early this morning at a
dipping vat, about four miles from
here, in which, it is said, Kinch Lum
»ley and Tom Lumley were stabbed
and beaten with hickory sticks by
Dennis Hooks and Boss Hooks. Tom
Lumley is not expected to live. Bad
feeling has existed for some time be
tween the men.
