Bio WEEK WITH LADIES.
Spring Openings of Dawson Mer-
chants Attract Large Crowds.

The BUSINESS streets of Dawson
looked very much like another carni-
val was in progress several days last
week. The occasion was the annual
spring openings of Dawson's enter
prising merchants and milliners.
Some of the most attractive displays
of headgear, dress goods and notions
ever seen in southwest Georgia were
viewed by the gentler sex, and not
only aid the ladies come from their
homes IN Dawson and Terrell county
to gaze upon the array of beautiful
goods, but from other towns and some
of the surrounding counties as well.
PARROT, Sasser, Herod, Bronwood,
Shellmun and Graves were we'll repre-
sented by fair delegates, who joined
the ladies of Dawson on tn tour of in
spection. Those stores which held
openings were bee hives of industry,
for the ladies purchased as we'll as ex-
amined. Said one we'll known Daw-
sonian Saturday: "My opening-of the
pocket book-will occur when the
bills begin to come in"
In the matter of these openings
there is no town in Georgia of Daw-
sons population which excels and
very few which equal he. The Dawson
merchants and milliners buy with
tast and Discrimination, and the buy
ing public patronizes literally.

EELPS SALVATION ARMY.

The SALVATION ARMY doesn't
break into the news columns very
often. but when it does, it is usually
for something worth while. IN yester-
days Herald Captain W. P. Wood
pointed out a benefit ,.ccruing from
the Sunday closing OF saloons that no.
body had thought of before. Captain
Wood says the Sunday afternoon at
tendance at the Salvation Army meet
ings is larger since the saloons were
ordered closed than it has ever been
before.
II is very easy to believe the cap
tain's assertion. The class of men that
freQuents saloons on Sunday is the
homeless class, az d rule. Business
and laboring men, with comparatively
few exceptions. like to spend the Sab
bath with their families. They drive
Out if they are fortunate enough TO
own private conveyances; they take
street car rides; they visit their friends
The floating population, having no
homes, naturally drifts into the saloon.
This is the class in which Che Sal
walton Army has done and is doing a
great work. With the saloon doors shut
tightly, the nabitual drunkard and
1ounger looks up some other place
where he may find warmth and shell
ter. The Salvation Army headquar-
ters-more power TO the faithful sol
diers in charge-are always open.
There a welcome is extended to the
lowliest. No man is too ragged, none
too degraded to receive a cordial well
come. Many attend the meetings to
scott, but many remain to pray.
The key-word in the Salvation Army
creed is helpfulness, its foundation is
bTOtherly love. II the closing of the
saloons or Sunday has done nothing
else than drive motley mob Of ineb-
rates and other human wrecks into
the Salvation army harbor, the order
was not given in vain. The Herald
wishes for Captain Wood and his CO.
workers the largest possible measure
Of success. May they continue to
snatch brands from the burning" I'M
til the fire is utterly extiHguished.

SOME DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE

OUR REPUBLICAN FRIENDS who
- have come to the conclusion that
defeat has disrupted the Democratic
party beyond the hope % reorganiza-
ton; that Democracy no longer stands
for fixed, definite and settled princi-
pies would do we'll to study the mes
sage of David B. Hill to the Phila-
delpbia Democrats for their Jackson's
Day celebration. The sage Of VOL
fert's Roost" in about 100 words fur
nished the platform of principles on
which the Democratic party stood in
ric'ory and in defeat, on which it will
a am stand in victory.
He wrote: 4 give you this senti-
ment: A strict construction of the
federal constitution. No entangIing
alliances with foreign nations. Insist
euce upon the reserved rights Of the
states. Public taxation for public pur-
poses only. Opposition 10 monopolies
and dangerous combinations OF capital
The Preservation Of the personal lib
erty Of the citizen. No Capitalization
Home rule for states and muuicipali-
ties. These are Democratic principles
which survive all defeats and must Ill
tiraately triumph"
Mr.. Hills message is full OF hope.
He believes. as all Democrats of prin-
eiple believe. that the future for the
party is not without hope. He might
have added another plank to his brief
platform, p plank favOring govern
ment ownership of public utilities.

through the Democratic party. Mr..
Hill might also have spoken in favor
Of the election of United States sem
ators by direct vote, a reform sadly
needed in the government of this coGn-
try
He said a good deal howe er, in a
very few words. as he has the faculty
Of saying much in little. Democrats
need not be discouraged when they
stand for the highest ideals in admin
isteTing the affairs o. their nation. As
Mr.. Hill says, such principles will sur
vive all defeats. and the day is coming
when they must triumph.
