DID 100000 DAMAGE.
Green Pea Louise Is Marching On, and
Will Increase Its Havoc This Year.

The department of agriculture at
Washington has issued report on the
ravages of the green pea louise, giving
warning that this insect, one of the
most important of those which ravaged
the crops of the country during the
past two seasons, will widen it's ravage
geographically and increase the
amount of destruction.
Since its first appearance in May,
1899, at Bridges, Va, its devastation
has steadily increased, and it has now
become the cause Of great loss in the
principal pea-growing regions of the
United States. The estimated loss it
caused along the Atlantic coast states
in 1899 is S3,000,0 00 and in 1900 this
had reached $4,000, 900 by the middle
of June.
In some farms in Maryland eighty
per cent or more of the crop was de-
stroyed. Vigorous efforts are being
made to control its spread, and the Of
fetal bulletin gives detailed descrip-
tion and means of fighting it.

Within the past few days Daw-

Within the past few days Daw-
son has taken hold of the movement
to secure the Brunswick and Blr-
minghan railroad with renewed
zeal. and the efforts that are being
made and the interest that is be-
ing aroused presage success.
Some of the city's most enter
prlsing and influential citizens have
the matter in hand, and there is but
little doubt that Dawson and Ter
rell county will meet the require
ments of the projectors OF the road
There is hardly a doubt that the
road will pass through this immediate
section, and Dawson cannot afford
to let it come within few miles and
not get it. The reasons are too OBJ
yious for it to be necessary to state
them. Besides, it is to be a great
trans-continental line, and it would
be of incalculable benefit to both the
town and county.
The county commissioners fully
realize the importance of the road,
and at their recent regular meeting
unanimously adopted the following
resolution
"Feeling just pride in the de-
velopment and progress Of Terrell

very best in splendid agricultural
region, and being fully alive to

at 1904, $780, but, as stated at the time,
this figure was subject to changes, be-
cause full reports of the number OF

vice of the United States abroad had
not been made. These and certain al
terations caused by the discovery OF
frauds in MARYLAND and other places,
brings the total down to 76,303, 1897, as
above stated. This figure includes the
population of Alaska, Hawaii, Indian
Territory and the Indian reservations,

Agricultural Commissioner Carries Alarm
ing Report TO Atlanta from South
Georgia.

Agricultural Commissioner O. B.
Stevens, who has recently returned to
Atlanta from trip to south Georgia,
gives gloomy account of crop condi-
tions, according to the Daily News.
Rain, hail and wind storms have
played havoc with cotton and corn in
many sections of the state, and the
grass is holding high carnival.
Speaking of the situation Mr.. Stew
ems said
"The condition of the crops in Geor-
gia at present is poorer than | have
ever known before. | have never in
all my life seen such state of affairs.
Rain, hail and wind storms have done
great damage, and the cold weather of
last week has given cotton great set
back. The cotton is lousy and has be-
gun shedding before it is hardly out of
the ground. That which is up is very
irregular. The state of affairs will APP

it almost completely of its foliage. the
wind has blown it down, and the rain
has caused what was left TO take on an
unusual growth.
II am sorry for the farmers of the
state, as the heavy rain has given grass
big impetus and there is going to be
all sorts of trouble in getting it out.
Then labor is very scarce and the few
negroes left in the country do not care
much about working.
"Reports received from various coun-
ties tell of a deplorable condition of the
crops.
Regarding fruit, reports are to the
effect that the peaches are dropping
off more than ever before and that the
few left on the trees are wormy | at
tribute this to excessive rains and cold
spells of weather. 1t is going TO be
hard matter for the crops to recover
from their present state, and my opin-
ion now is that crops will be short this
year."
Mr.. Stevens is very much discour-
aged over the outlook.

WHY THERE ARE LYNcHINGs. T

Every mail from the coast brings its
story of Iynchings. 1t is significant
that these tales no longer get the most
conspicuous columns in the newspapers
or the most impressive type. They
have become too common to be re-
markable. Only when accompanied by
the incidents of torture at the stake do
they dominate, with their peculiar hor-
ror, the ordinary news of the day
The reason for lynching is clear on
a brief consideration of any of the cases
in point. 1t is due to breakdown of
the criminal laws Of the country and
there is reason to wonder not that SO
many Iynchings occur but that so few
criminals are punished by mobs. Inc
laws against murder have come to be
wholly inefficient The annual slaugh-
ter in the United States has reached
fearful proportions. Over 10000 persons
are killed each year by their fellow
men, yet the legal hangings are rare.
Last year less than 200 murderers were
hanged according to law but 10000 per-
sons We're killed in defiance Of law
With such a record it may well be a
cause for surprise that the sum-total
OF lynchings was only 2S3 When the
law abandons its function of protecting
society from the criminal it is quite
to be expected that men will take up
the work which the courts refuse to
perform.
The enormous growth of murder In
| America is undoubtedly due to the in
efficiency of the law and the courts.
Where only one murderer in a hundred
! is to be hanged and acquittal or a brief
! IMPRISONMENT is the lot of nine out OF
| ten of. those who are tried, the law has
no terrors for those who wish to kill
! The policy that was adopted In mercy
to save the lives of possibly innocent
persons has turned to the most blood
| thirsty cruelty. Judging by England
and Germany and other countries II
which murderers are punished prompt
" and severely. some 10000 out of the
1O, 500 murders of last year would never
have been committed. had the same
procedure been followed in this country
as in other civilized nations
The main cause of the breakdown o
the criminal law of the United State!
lies in the privilege of appeals in Grim
inal trials. This privilege, which is al
innovation of American lawmakers
has resulted in loading down the orig
inaI simplicity of the criminal law will
a vast body of technical Interpretation
that prevents the trial court from
selecting a good jury. from presenting
the truth TO that jury and from prompt
lily carrying out the verdict should on
be found against the accused. Tn
remedy is to be found in returning t
the simple methods that made our Grim
inal law effective in the early days o
the republic and that now form s
efficient deterrent to the crimina
classes of Great Britain and rs
colonies.

The Koreans have no capacity TO
ciyilize their country or to defend it
and naturally it viii pass into stronger
and better hands, If the japanese ae-
auire it, as seems probable, now that
Russia has taken Manchuria, they will
be pretty certain to develop the great
natural resources of the Hermit King
dom and make Korea contribute enorfn-
Gus sums to the aggregate of human
wealth. The economic needs of the
growing populations of the world are
such that no country ought to be left
undeveloped in the hands of incom-
petent owners. Nobody is entitled to
use rich area of the common earth
merely as a camping ground when its
soil covers vast deposits OF potential
wealth needed to increase the comfort
and enlarge the opportunities of man
kind. The world belongs to those mt
ted to occupy it and to make it a bet

Mr.. LISHMAN's MILK.

The Advertiser has engaged in a
systematic effort to bring to Justice
the dealers in bad milk, believing that
the public health was seriously endan-
gered from this source. In the course
of this work statements were made to
this paper which led it to believe Gt
1t now convinced erroneously) that milk
sold by Mr.. Lishman was of inferior
quality, and under this belief and in
the public interests 1t so stated.
The writer of the article was not per-
sonaIly acquainted with Mr.. Lishman
and his high character for probity and
honesty. Upon subsequent investiga-
ton, the Advertiser is convinced that
the charge against Mr. Lishman was
unfounded, and expresses its regret al
the publication and for any injury that
may nave been done to Mr. Lishman's
feelings.

appears an article about German officers

water front reporter of that paper thinks
that his eagle eye discovered matter
of the greatest Importance, and even the
editor seems to think so, as he always
returns to the same subject. Or, is the
Advertiser, as l supposed at first, really
short of material TO fill up its sixteen
page paper? If not, the ignorance dls-
played is something wonderful. Does ne
really think that the German emperor Is

ditions personally? Does he really i'm
agine that army officers made soundings
of the bay here, while the United States
photographic office supplies everyone
with charts of latest date, giving all
