Lightning Hits Oil
In Abandoned Well
OLEAN, N. Y.—Lightning
which penetrated an oil well that
its backers had abandoned in de
spair tapped and ignited a gas
pocket, encouraging the drillers
to such an extent that they re
sumed work and have an oil well
in the center of the city that will
produce five barrels a day, It is
estimated.
It is the first well sunk inside
the city limits, and the “shot”
was watched by hundreds of per
sons. The well is in a yard be
hind Union street. It is the
property of the Nealo Oil com
pany, which invested $3,000 in it
and estimates that the returns
will be about $3 Oa day. More
drilling is expected.
CUTHBERT CROWD
BRAVES BIG RAIN
TO HEAR WALKER
CUTHBERT, Ga., Aug.' 19. —Not-
withstanding a constant downpour
of rain, practically all day and up
to the hour of speaking, Clifford
Walker, candidate for governor, spoke
in the courthouse filled with en
thusiastic and sympathetic voters
Wednesday afternoon. He was in ;
troduced by James W. Harris, of
the local bar.
The speaker, after stressing 100
per cent Americanism on the part
of Americans, urged a like efficiency
in educational matters, stability of
the home and home-owning and build
ing as the best remedy against un
rest and for stable government. He
also promised his best efforts, if
elected governor, for better highways
and for an economic and business
like administration.
He cited the records of his op
ponent, ex-Senator Hardwick, assert
ing that in all of his political record
in congress not one vote showed his
advocacy of constructive and helpful
legislation, but on the contrary his i
opposition. T , . , , |
He likewise scored Mr. Hardwick s ;
advocacy of Martens and Russian
Soviet and read from the records of
the senate investigating committee.
He also read previous utterances of
Mr. Hardwick in criticism of Thomas
E Watson and of his present incon
sistent position of attempting to ride
into office on Mr. Watson s coat tail.
Frequent applause was given Mr.
Walker, and his speech was favor
ably received throughout. He is
well-known and popular in Randolph
county and his friends believe the
county will be found in the Walker
column election day.

offices in the gift of the people of
Georgia.
“We condemn in the strongest
terms the attitude and record, writ
ten, spoken and acted, of these two
men in all pertaining to our recent
war and especially to the unwarrant

have made upon those brave boys—
privates and officers—who now com
pose the American Legion.
"’‘Our sincerest sympathy goes out
-o the members of the American Le

f the Confederate veterans within
he confines of our state to use their
almost efforts in defeating Watson
and Hardwick in the coming primary.
Let us show to the" outside that we

Senator Smith Given
Ovation by Citizens
■ Os Stephens County
TOCCOA, Ga., Aug. 19.—Senator
Hoke Smith concluded one of the
most strenuous and effective days
of his campaign for re-election here
yesterday afternoon with a strong
address at the baseball park. He was
late in reaching the city from Clarks
ville, owing to the condition of the’
mountain roads, but he found await
ing his arrival a representative crowd
of citizens, farmers predominating,
that gave him a warm w r elcome and
an attentive hearing.
Here, as at Clarksville, Senator
Smith paid his respects to Governor
Dorsey and Thomas E. Watson. He
reiterated his invitation to the gov
ernor to meet him in joint discus
sion in the Atlanta auditorium on
any date after next Thursday and
before the primary on September 8.
The politeness of his language in al
luding to Mr. Dorsey as contrasted
with the governor’s character
izations of him was the subject of
much favorable comment, and there
were present many who subsequent
ly expressed the belief that in view
of his personal attack on the sen
ator the governor, in common fair
ness, should accept the senator’s in
vitation for a face-to-face
of their records.
It appears that Stephens county
is one of the smaller counties that
escaped the attention of Governor
Dorsey’s tax investigators in their
illegal collection of a tobacco tax,
but this oversight—for such it ifi
counted —has not lessened the inter
est of the people in the disclosures
respecting the activity of this corps
of special officials, w:ho were so lib
erally rewarded for their efforts in
exacting for the state money that
actually was not due the state, with
holding 20 per cent of the money
as compensation for their labors.
No one in Toccoa yesterday vouch
safed a suggestion as to why the tax
collectors had played favorites
among the counties in the matter
of the tobacco tax. but there was in
the city a well known traveling sales
man who stated that one of the col
lectors had offered to divide com
missions with him for a tip that
would enable him to find a “tax de
faulter” from whom he could make
a collection.
Senator Smith only touched .upon
the tobacco tax matter as incidental
to his discussion of the deplorable
condition of the state’s finances un
der Governor Dorsey’s administrat
tion, and this, coupled with the re
lations of the governor, Thomas E - .
Watson and the Atlanta Constitu-
i>f many southern people, rich and
joor alike, after thousands had been
carried away by Pellagra.
Pellagra can be cured. If you
doubt, this book will convince you.
And it will show you the way to a
personal cure. If you are a Pellagra
sufferer, or if you know of a Pella
gra sufferer, then for humanity's
sake, let this book bring new courage
and valuable knowledge. It will be
sent Free for the asking.
THIS IS THE BABY who was
kidnaped from his home on June
2, and for whom a nation-wide
search has been made, without
result.
THIS IS THE MAIN who has
confessed that he wrote a “crank”
letter to the father of the baby
who was kidnaped from his home
on June 2, got $12,000 for a
promise to return the child, and
then bought a farm with the
money.
THIS IS THE FARM that the
man who -wrote a “crank” letter
to the father of the baby who was

turn the baby.
BUT the baby has not yet been
returned.
tion, was his only reference to Mr.
Dorsey.
Governor Not a Factor
Friends of the -senator in Toccoa
and from all parts of Stephens coun
ty advised him before the speech
that Governor Dorsey is not a seri
ous factor in Stephens county—a
condition seemingly common in this
section of the state. The senatorial
contest is between the senator and
Thomas E. Watson. Governor Dor
sey’s candidacy has created no ex
citement and only passing interest.
He has many admiring friends, un
questionably, but they realize that
he hasn’t even an outside chance, and
they are really disturbed because his
presence in the race is helping onij-
Mr. Watson by catching a vote here
and there which in other circum
stances would fall to Senator Smith.
In these circumstances. Senator
Smith devoted comparatively little
time to Governor Dorsey. His refer
ences to Mr. Watson were made in
the best of spirit.. He said nothing
that could have given offense to any
one in his allusions to Mr. Watson’s
temperamental unfitness for service
in the United States senate, and his
remarks otherwise concerned Mr
Watson’s opposition to the war, his
of the draft
and his willingness M debate Mr
Watsdn on the record and accom
plishments of the Democratic admin
istration.
The senator devoted himself to ex
tolling the accomplishments of the
administration by analyzing its great
legislative enactments ’and to pictur
ing impressively the necessity for
future alertness in Washington in
exacting for the people of Georgia
that to which they are entitled in
legislative and administrative bene
fits. He stressed the importance of
protecting, improving and enlarging
the activities of the federal govern
ment in matters of moment to the
state. He told of obstacles and sec
tional prejudices that had been met
and overcome in the enactment or
much important legislation, notably
the federal aid to roads act. He re
marked upon the effort that is now
being made to investigate and inter
fere with the suffrage laws of the
south, because of the disfranchise
ment of the negro. He recounted the
underlying motives of opposition to
the currency law, under the terms of
which the south secured three re
gional banks, one of which is lo
cated in Georgia.
Was Well Received
Senator Smith’s speech was well
received. There was no mistaking
the sympathy of his hearers. His ut
terances struck a responsive chord
and at the conclusion of the speech
in the short interval before the-sena
tor s departure, he was surrounded
by a crowd ot eager and enthusias
tic friends who congratulated him
u Pon the speech and showered him
with voluntary assurances of sup
port. v

Recognizes Son She
Last Saw as Baby
NEW YORK.—Although she last
saw her child thirteen years ago
in Bohemia when he was a babv of
eleven months, Mrs. Anna Hanchek,
of New Salem, Pa., yesterday picked
him out among scores of others at
the detention headquarters at Ellis
island.
The boy, who has lived with
friends in Czecho-Slovakia, arrived
on the Rochambeau July 14, but the
name he gave was not recognized as
that of Hanchek. Mrs. Hanchek came
several times from Pensylvania, hop
ing he had arrived, but each time
was told he had not. Yesterday she
made a pitiful appeal to inspect the
detention headquarters herself. The
immigration officials were skeptical,
but permitted her to visit the great
hall. She instantly picked out a
fourteen-year-old boy as her own.
Questioning of the boy proved she
.is right.
Hunger Striker Dies
After 43 Days’ Fast
POTTSVILLE, Pa.—After hav
ing been on a hunger strike for
forty-three days, Charles Wilson,
a negro prisoner, died today in
the county jail.
Wilson, while serving sentence
of seven years for a series of
hold-ups, and attempted mur
ders, tried to escape some weeks
ago. He opened his cell door
with a key made from a spoon,
beat the night watchman into
insensibility and engaged in a
.pistol duel with another watch
man. He was severely injured
in the fight.
He was re-sentenced to a to
tal of twenty-eight years’ im
prisonment. Then he began his
hunger strike.
‘OUIJA KING’ HAS
NO FAITH IN BOARD
HE MANUFACTURES
CHICAGO. —A jolly little fat man
sits in a rickety chair in a dusty
factory office and laughs so heartily
he shakes like a quivering cone of
jelly.
Mirth overwhelms him when you
mention the ouija board.
For the jolly chap is J. M. Sim
mons, “Ouija King.”
He can afford to laugh. For the
people are buying the ouija boards
he makes so fast that he’s rolling in
money.
"The public are fools!” laughs the
"ouija king.”
“They’ll bite on anything,” he
continues. “The public belief in the
ouija board is a joke. We don’t fos
ter it. But the poor deluded fools
want the board and we’re giving it
to them by the thousands.”
The past year 500,000 ouija boards
were sold by J. M. Simmons & Co.,
made in a little second-floor factory
with ten employes on Chicago’s west
side. Simmons said as many more
were sold by the William Fuld com
pany, of Baltimore.
Does “Ouija King” Simmons use
the ouija board himself? He does
not!
If the man who makes the ouija
really thought the ouija had any
mystic power he would sit right
down and ask the ouija to tell him
whether the ouija craze is going to
last through the winter.
And—precisely quoting Mr. Sim
mons:
“I ain’t such a fool as to waste
my time asking the ouija questions
about the craze. Gosh, though! I’d
like to know whether the £O9l pub
lic’s going to yell for-the ouija next
winter. It’s hard to get the three
ply lumber stock the boards are
made out of unless you order it long
in advance. I don’t know whether
to order lumber or not.”
Simmons probably will take a
chance. For he’s moving into a fac
tory four times as big as the old
one. And if the ouija fails him he’ll
go back to making toys.
Simmons says he foster
mystic belief in the ouija. Yet the di
rections he puts out contain these
statements:
“Many scientists claim this board
does not answer questions from an
unki.uvvn power; that its ‘anima
tion’ flows from personal magnetism.
Spiritualists claim that invisible
spirits guide its movements, asupe
rlor intelligence ruling our future.
“If you tail to get results in play
ing the board, it >s at no time the
fault of the board. It is at merely
that the so-called psychic force is
undeveloped in the operators. In
that case, simply ask some one who
ha.i played board before to oper
ate it with you, and you will un
doubtedly secure immediate results.”
“Os course, that’s all bunk,” says
j Mr. Simmons.

Second Primaries
To Be Necessary in
Mississippi Districts
JACKSON, Miss., Aug. 19.—Com
plete unofficial returns, compiled by
the Jackson Daily News, from Tues
day’s primary, show that second pri
maries will be necessary in the First
and Second districts.
In the First district Congressman
E. S. Candler will be opposed by J.
E. Rankin, of Tupelo, who has a
small plurality.
In the second district, B. G.
Lowrey, administration Democrat,
will be opposed by A. C. Anderson,
of Ripley, who has sharply criticized
the western administration in his
campaign addresses.
Congressman T. U. Sisson, of the
Fourth district, an administration
supporter, defeated Jeff Busby, of
Chickasaw county, by about 400
votes.
Congressman Percy Quin was an
easy winner in the Seventh district
over Hugh V. Wall, of Brookhaven,
and W. A. Dickson, of Centreville.
In the fifth district Congressman
Webb Venable was defeated by Ross
Collins, former attorney general, by
a majority of 750 votes.
The vote polled in the state varied
from one-half to two-thirds of the
registration, being surprisingly light
in many of the counties.
Judge W. D. Anderson, of Tupelo,
defeated Judge Sam C. Cook, incum
bent, for supreme judge for the
northern district by about 7,000.

Mr. Holder spoke before a very
appreciative audience. His hearers
were partciularly interested in that
feature of his address touching up
on Mr. Hardwick’s record. Con
cerning Mr. Hardwick and his race,
Mr. Holder said in part:
“Mr. Hardwick is certainly pay
ing a dear price for the privilege of
running for governor—the filling of
his heart and very soul with intense
animosity and consuming antipathy
of his fellowman. In such a cam
paign as he is conducting he is dem
onstrating to the people of Georgia
that he could not make a just gov
ernor, for no man should be govern
or of Georgia who could not be fair
to friend and foe alike, and no man
can be fair and just, who has the
sentiments in his heart that Mr.
Hardwick evidences by his public
utterances.
“I still say that in his public rec
ord he has not been a builder, but a
critic and a destroyer. He has not
been' for things which would bene
fit and upbuild the state and nation,
and keep step with progress and de
velopment, but rather has been an
opponent to all these things with
out offering anything in substitu
tion therefor.
“It is in the .senate where he had
an opportunity to do a great work
that he developed into a critic and
an obstructiontist. He favored dis
franchising the negro in Georgia,
but favored giving him the ballot in
Washington so that the negro then
could defeat all efforts to abolish
saloons in that city. He opposed the
ship purchase bill, parcels post, and
the federal reserve act, the best
laws in behalf of the masses that
have been placed on the statute
books in half a century.”
Following his address here. Mr.
Holder went with friends to Hazle
hurst, where he sppke to an au
dience of Jeff Davis county voters
this afternoon.
Says Husband Is
Serving Term for
Having Eight Wives
Claiming that husband is serv
ing a sentence of from four to five
years in the state penitentiary at
Alabama for bigamy, Mrs. Annie
Ramsey has filed suit for annulment
of her marriage to J. H. Ramsey.
The petitioner claims she was mar
ried December 11, 1908 and ’in Feb
ruary, 1915, she says her husband
deserted her. The first Intimation
she had that he had committed big
amy, she says, wa searly in the pres
ent year when she received a sub
poena to appear in the criminal divi
sion of the circuit court at Birming
ham, Ala., to testify against her hus
band. She says he was charged by
the court with having eight wives.
He pleaded guilty to four charges,
she says, and was sent to the peni
tentiary. Mrs. Ramsey is represented
by Attorney James L. Moore. •
Wilson Put One Over
On England on League,
Roosevelt Declares
BUTTE, Mont. Aug. 19.—President
Wilson “put one over” on Premier
Lloyd George of Great Britain, in
the distribution of voting strength
in the League of Nations, Franklin
D. Roosevelt, Democratic vice presi
dential nominee, declared in an ad
dress here.
“The Republicans are playing a
shell game on the American people,”
the nominee declared, because “they
are still busy circulating the story
that England has six votes to Amer
ica’s one.”
“It is just the other way,” he went
on. “As a matter of fact, the United
States has abcut twelve votes in the
assembly. Until last week I had
two of them myself and now Secre
tary Daniels has them. You know
I had something to do with the run
ning of a couple of little republics.
Facts are that I wrote Haiti’s consti
tution myself, and if I do say it, I
think it a pretty good constitution.”
Mr. Roosevelt said that Haiti, ans
San .Domingo, Panama. Cuba and
Central American countries who had
at least twelve votes in the league’s
assembly, all regarded Uncle Sam as
a guardian and big brother, and that
this country virtually would have
their votes in the league.

Heavy Rains Played
Havoc With Cotton,
Says Commissioner
Rains all over Georgia in the past
several weeks have literally played
havoc with the cotton crop, accord
ing to J. J. Brown, commissioner of
agriculture, who has just returned
from an extensive investigation of
crop conditions in south Georgia.
“Two weeks ago there was a pros
pect of almost a normal crop in mid
dle and south Georgia,” said Com
missioner Brown. “But now it is
certain that there will hardly be gath
ered any cotton crop at all. The
boll weevil has eaten all the large
bolls and is working back on the
small bolls.”
Commissioner Brown regards as
absurd the statement that the south
will raise 14,000,000 bales of cotton.
He does not look for morfe than 12,-
500,000 bales.
There will be a meeting next week
in Montgomery of the officials of
the American Cotton association for
the purpose of recommending a mini
mum price for the 1920 cotton crop.
Commissioner Brown will attend the
meeting and insist upon a figure
which takes into consideration the
shortness of the crop.
