UNIQUE SITUATION REGARDING BALLOTS FACES ORDINARIES Walker’s Failure to Supply Ballots In Time Makes Ordinaries Liable to Fine, Old Law Reveals ATLANTA, Ga.—Failure of Gov ernor Walker to have copies of the official form of the ballot for the general election on November 4th, in the hands of all ordinaries in Georgia, who, in turn are required by law to dispatch such blanks to tlie justices of the peace “at least ten days before election day," will place a fine not exceeding SIOO upon all ordinaries, aacording to the Georgia arts of 1895, It was revealed Saturday. .

Section 86. of the Act of 1895, follows: "The governor shall furnish the several ordinaries all blank forms necessary for said Elections, which they shall furnish the justices of the peace, or notaries public who art ex-officio Justices of the peace of their counties, at least ten days before election day and on failure to do so, shall be liable to a fine not exceeding $100."

Jones, director of finance of the Democratic National Committee, sent out the following statement Satur day night from New York City. "As Is well known to all readers of the newspapers, the Democratic National Committee is being seri ously restricted in waging its cam paign because democrats in Geor gia and elsewhere do not take enough real Interest In their par ty's welfare and in the success of our national ticket at the Novem ber election. “It Is a race, a real race, and we star.t off well in the lead with the solid south, but after that we must fight every inch of tho ground and it takes money. Not for slush fund purposes, but to pay the actual and legitimate expenses of the candi dates and the committee. "We have been able to collect to date in the entire United Rtates only about $600,000. The republican committee acknowledge thaht they have collected approximately four times this amouut, and I have no doubt but that they raised for use at strategic points a great deal of money In udditlon. The reason for this is not because republicans are so much richer than democrats, but because they get out and work and take more Interest in their elec tions. It is true that certain of them have much at stake because of the unfair protective tariff which enables them to enrich themselves at tho expense of the rest of us. But aside from that they rspond to the needs of their party very much more liberally and more generally than democrats, especial ly in national elections. “I would like to Impress upon every man and woman in the dem ocratic party the absolute neces sity of each taking onto himself or herself a full share of tho re sponsibility In this great fight, If we are to win. And If we lose It will be because we go to sleep at the switch and don't back our party in a really and truly Interest ed way. There is «o much more at stake than tho democrats through out the country indicate that they understand, and if we go down in defeat it will be because of the lack of Interest or the people of Geor gia ad other southern states In fur nishing ammunition to the front lino teachers, a* it were, to enable those at the front to put up a really winning fight. “Success Is so easily within our grasp and If It slips away, It will be the fault of those good men and women of our party who take for granted that some one else will furnish the money necessary to do everything thaht ought to be done.

S. S. SHENANDOAH, VIA RADIO TO FORT HAYES, COLUMBUS, Ohio.—A new era in the history of lighter than-air navigation was written Saturday when the big nvay air ship Shenandoah hovered gracefully over its home hangar at Lake hurst, N. J., completing its remarkable and record-breaking nine thousand miles cruise. Not only were the world’s rec ort *» of achievement broken but a greater thrill came to the country from the fact that the first Am erican-built rigid airehip had made the first ■ voyage across the United States and returned. Th 8 test of ship and of men, a test as severe as any ship aver faced, h*a been successfully met. The Shonsndoah east off fro m t* lß mooring at Lakehurst and started its long cruise at 10 a. m., October 7. At 11 o’clock Saturday night, 445 hours had passed sin' 8 . the «tart. In that time the Shenandoah had been flying wit* l 'ts engines running for 257 hours and 38 minutes .and moored to a mast for 187 hours and 22 minutes. The latter includes five days, or hours that the ship was being repaired. IXfJrtUBU. NONE OF HELIUM LOS T IN VOYAGE None of tho precious helium #vas lost by difficulties during the voyage. All that escaped was val ved to permit landing or set free hy automatic safety valves under the expansion of high altitudes. For every minute through tho entire cruise the ship was able to maintain constant radio communi cation with the land, frequently wdth stations several thousands miles distant. Weather reports, official messages, Instructions as to mooring hours and thousands of words of press messages were sent and received. New discoveries in the possibilities of radio communi cation from high altitudes were mode. All of the radio equipment carried on board was manufactured at the Bellevue experimental labor atory. Washington, maiy of the technicalities of which never had ben tried out before and their suc cess was evident. As remarkable as the effective ness of the radio apnartus was the promptness with which communi cation was established In almost every part of the United States. Thousands of radio amateurs nick ed up the ships messages and re layed them to their destinations. One of these amateurs was bed ridden and not a few were retired telegraph or radio operators keep ing their wrists limber and night ly talking through space with ac quaintances they had never soon and knew only by call In San Diego. ACTUAL FLYING TIME WAS 235 HOURS The actual flying time between cities deducting the time taken in locating the mooring masts through the fogs was 235 hours and 11 minutes. The fastest express trains between the same cities make the run In 272 hours and 30 minutes, also deducting the time for connections. Fuel consumption. Including a small amount for the radio gene rator and the cooking range, aver aged a gallon per mile. The twen ty Immense gas cells, each from 16,000 to 20,000 cubic feet capacity Inside of the long silvered tube of the ship stood up well. Yesterday’s voyage was humpy, the ship rising nnd falling In long glides. 1,000 feet between crest and trough. An average speed of 55 Imles an hour was maintained. Englnemen In th«*lr cramped cabin gave nn extra turn to their motors for home when the mooring was came In sight. The men ex perienced the same thrill a* the sight of the mooring mast at T.ake hurst as our soldiers did when passing the statute of liberty on their return from France.
