“Shut the door, It’s cold.”
Fred Shuler, white, was given S2O
or 40 days for beating a woman nearly
to death. The victim was present and
there was evidence enough in the
many bruises and a black eye that
she had been severely beaten. The
fight occurred a week ago, but it was
n n until Tuesday night the officers
arrested Shuler.
Frank Todd and W. S. Kendricks,
both white, were each given $4 or 8
days for fighting.
Jim Williams, colored, charged with
larceny from the person, was bound

BAILEY IS TO SURELY
RETIRE TO PRIVATE LIFE
Washington.—Emphatically denying
reports that he had changed his mind
about retiring to private life. Senator
Jos. W. Bailey, of Texas, in an in
terview here, stated that his decision,
of leaving the senate at the expirtp
tion of present term in 1913 was ir- j
revocable.
GEORGIA!! FOUND
WITH THROAT CUT
With Razor and Bible In Hand
Corpse of Ohas. W. Morris
Discovered at Tampa.
Tampa, Fla—With his throat cut
in three places, the body of a man
known as Charles W. Morris, of La
Grange, Ga., was found in an isolated
cabin eight miles from Tampa Tues
day morning. The body was in a
blood-soaked bed, in the right hand
w»as an open razor, and under the
dead man’s head was a Bible.
The circumstances surrounding the
death are mysterious, officers ex
pressing the opinion that it is a case
of murder. This belief is based on
the presence of the razor in the dead
man’s hand and the number of
wounds, any of which w’ould have
caused death. One of the cuts al
most severed the head from the body.
Morris, who came to Tampa several
months, ago at first stated that he
was from Oklahoma City. Later in
w’as stated he had been living in At- j
lanta. Search among his effects to-1
day disclosed a letter apparently
written by his wife, in which she in
timated that he bad better go to j
South America, where she would Join j
him later. Another letter signed D. 1
V. Stevens, La Grange, Ga. was found !
and a telegram was immediately sent j
to this address informing him of!
j Morris’ death. He answered to have
' the body turned over to an undertaker
and stated that he would leave im
mediately for Tampa.
Morris had been employed recently
at the Tampa stock farm. He did
n't show up to work Monday or to
day and a friend went to the small
cabin where he bad been living to
look for him. There he discovered
the body. Offieers here advance the
theory that Morris was killed by some j
one lie had wronged, a stranger hav- !
ing been noticed in the vicinity re- !
rently.
This theory Is also based on some I
letters which the officers decline to j
make public. Pat Williams, the man
who discovered the body, is in jail,
held as a witness. The remains pf
Morris were interred this afternoon,
being in a state of decompositon.

SIMCIST UNITY
Wife of Irish Leader Address
es the National Woman’s
Convention. Urges Sisters to
Stand Shoulder to Shoulder.
Louisville, Ky.—Man and his polit
ical ways were weighed and found
wanting this afternoon by Mrs. T. P.
O’Connor, wife of the Irish leader,
who addressed the National Woman
Suffrage convention on the text, “Let
Our Watchword be Unity.” Mrs.
O’Connor replied to what she termed
the “old threadbare arguments”
against woman suffrage, outlined
what she deciared were typical abuses
of man’s powers, and urged her sis
ter to “stand ehoulder to shoulder
and march forward together.”
“If the majority of men could be
convinced that it would be to their
personal advantage and to the advan
tage of the state to accede the vote
to women our fight would he at an
end,” she declared. “When you ask
them why we don't vote they- advance
old threadbare arguments, the first
being that all women would vote ac
cording to the politics of their hus
bands. If this be true, why
shouldn’t a man want two votes in
stead of one?
Another Argument.
“Another argument is that if wo
men had votes men would no longer
pick up their handkerchiefs. I have
lived in England twenty-six years,
and during that time I have always
picked up my own handkerchief and
not had the advantage of a vote,
either.
“A man left alone in Baltimore this
summer with a negro cook called her
Into the dining room and said: ‘Con
found you, Maria, I want my meals
cooked better hereafter or out the
door you go; I don’t propose to pay
you S3O a month to send in every
thing I eat burned to a crisp.’ ‘Look
a here,’ retorted Maria, 'don’t you
talk that way to me, you just 'mem
ber who I is; I don’t like your tone
of voice, and I ain’t ho trash for you
to holler at; you mustn't take me for
yo’ wife.’
“And finally, the great and over
whelming argument is that to give
women votes would destroy man’s
home. It doesn’t matter about wo- j
men’s, man’s home is the thing to be
considered. Then there is the last j
weak-kneed argument, the refuge of i
the pessimist, that already the fran
chfse Is too large, and as women are
clamoriDg for a vote the only remedy
is to take it away from a certain num
ber of me n who have not gone through
a collegiate course and cannot stand
well in a spelling competition.
The Very Foundation.
"Men are not to be trusted with un
limited power. But the very founda
tion of the relations of men and wo
men are wholly wrong. Thp theory iff
that men toward women are wlsej 1
noble, generous, chivalrous and just;
that we can trust them to make laws
for us which will protect cur inter
ests; and for the rest we must by
tact and diplomacy manage them.
Men’s great shibboleth, the thing be 1
cries out for, is management. If he
is unfaithful to his wife, she hasn’t
managed him properly. And what ,
woman I ask you, no matter how ;
good or clever she is, can make a
man go her way if he has begun to
go the wav of another woman?

THE “WAR ON BUSINESS" SCARE
Loose talk about a “war on busi
ness” does more harm than any war
that is waged. If great combinations
like the Standard Oil Company and
the American Tobacco Company are
punished for violations of the anti
trust law, what harm has that done to
your business? Ask yourself if any
body is making war on you; and,
when you hear any man talking loose
ly, ask him precisely what daroagi
to his trade has been done by an
body ?
Buch direct, and wholly honest <
sideration by every man of his <,, ~
position would very quickly dispel
such fear as exists.—World’s Work.
OLD SORES
The proper way—the only success
ful way—to treat an old sore is to
destroy its source. Not by dangerous
surgical operations or irritating
“drawing ” plasters, but by Nature’s
true method of purifying the blood
and filling the circulation with rich,
nourishing properties; then the
cure will be natural and lasting. We
can easily understand how impurities
in the blood will infect some weak
point on our bodies, and by contin
ually discharging impurities into it
keep the place open and inflamed
until a chronic ulcer is formed.
Nothing then is so sure to produce a
cure of these old sores as S. S. S.
This medicine is Nature’s perfect
blood remedy, composed of the most
healing and at the same time the
most penetrating and blood-purifying
properties. It removes every particle
of impurity or morbid matter from the
circulation, and assists nature in the
increasing of healthful, nutritious
corpuscles in the blood. S. S. S.
makes pure Wood and pure blood is
Nature’s unfailing cure for old sores.
We want every sufferer with an old
sore to commence the use of S. S. S.,
because we know it is the remedy
they most need. Book on Sores and
TJlcers and medical advice free to all.
S. S, S. is sold at drag stores.

The Only Way In Which The Farmer
Can Have Voice In Fixing Cotton Prices
Th© only way for the farmer to have
some voice in fixing the pnee of hia
own product is to remain master of it
after he grows it, say.s the Italian
Ncwh.
The problem of assuring ;i fair pric e
for cotton—and it is the moat urgent
problem that confronts the Houth is
the problem of enfranchising the farm
ers from the Horvitude of debt. What
ever the solution, and the solution will
b* ft long time In getting discovered
and formulated, the first step Is the
practice of diversification. The farmer
who practices diversification In a thor
ough-going and persistent way will be
able at least to feed himself. He may
fall Into debt, but, at worst, not hope
lessly. He will remain the owner of
at least a part of hia cotton after he
shall have grown It. His road from
tin gin nc<d not be. as now, inexor
ably toward town. He may then c-x

should not rise to a tempting level, he
will he able to count the bales in hi?
