twenty wears OF age he came to Terrell

son, and resided IN this place from that
time until the day of his death, March
| is 1904. He was admitted to the bar
in the year 1860, and continued In the
practice OF the law at Dawson until he

recorded by our secretary, a copy OF
the same be furnished to the family OF
Brother Simmons, and a copy sent to

SlLENCES HIS CRITICS.

When they could spare sufficient
time from attacking Mr.. Hearst along
other lines the papers opposed to him
have seen fit to express a conviction
that if he should not be nominated by
the St. Louis convention he will bolt.
Just what reason they had for harbor-
ing such a conviction is not easily
seen, as Mr.. Hearst has consistently
and Loyalty voted the democratic ticket
ever since he was old enough to cast
his first ballot.
But now comes Mr.. Hearst himself
and settles the question beyond dis
pute.

Thus is some more campaign thunder
snatched from the anti-Hearst men.
Now let those newspapers which have
been attacking Mr.. Hearst say wheth e
er they will bolt the party should he
be nominated for president.

A NEW INDUSTRY.

A new industry is offering itself to
the farmers and manufacturers Of the
limited States. The fact that $50, 00O,-
900 worth of goat skins are now annu-
ally imported into the United States,
and that her enterprising manufacture
ers are obliged to send half way
around the world for large share OF
them, suggests that the farmers'of the
country have a great opportunity to
mt a share of this sum into their own
pockets.
A statement just presented by the
department of commerce and labor,
through its bureau of statistics, shows
that importations of goat skins into the
limited States are now running at the
rate of S25, 900, 900 per an lum, and that
a large share of these are brought
from India, China, Arabia and south
eastern Russia. The increasing pop
ularity of certain classes of kid leather
for footwear, as we'll as gloves, has in.
creased very greatly the demand for
goat skins in the United States within
recent years.
His eoatship thrives nowhere better
than right here in Georgia, and some
of our farmers would find it profitable

Talk ovsr Situation.

A large number OK prominent peo-
pie met the Governor 10 tho old
throne room this morning TO discuss
the county situation. Among the
speakers was Federal Judge Dole
who gave it as his opinion that mas
much as the appro OPERATIONS provid-
cd for 10 the County, Act were
knocked out, tho appropriations OF
1901 were renewed. General A S
Hartwsll conceded with this view,
A g M Robertson called attention
to the law, which says that IL the
Legislature fails to appropriate,
then the former appropriations shall
obtain; and he pointed out that the
last Legislature had not failed TO
make appropriations. Ia bis opinion
the old appropriation bill could not
legally, hs followed.
l. A Thurston, the arch.enemy OF
County govern ment, made his usual
attack on the proposed system. The
question OF whether or not the old
appropriation bill is operative will
likely be submitted to the Supreme
Court.

since his arrival in Washington. has
keenly observed the workings Of

while not directly brosching his

the interests OF Hawaii to have
new delegate enter Congress at each
new session. Prince Kuhio's opinion,
like that OF majority OF congress

Who Pays The Duty.

In 1893 England imported into
the United States 253. 155, long
tons of tinplate. The DINGHY
bill was framed and passed, de-
spite the united opposition of
democrats, with duty on tin.
Americans, thus protected, en-
tered into the manufacture of the
product and in 1908 the importa-
tion was 47,360 tons, about one.
sixth as under e-trade condi-
tions. The other five sixths is
made by workmen in the United
States by over 1900 working
men who get over ten million
dollars annually. In 1891 only
552 tons of tin-plate was made in
the United States; in 1903 the
product was 366, 900 tons. In
1891 the price Of tin plate, whole
sale. at New York, was s.. 80 per
hundred pounds; in 1903 the av-
erage price was $4.07. When
the law was passed democrats
denounced the plan of putting a
duty of 2 2-10 cents per pound on
tin: said it simply put more mon
ey into the pocket of the foreign
manufacturers, as there was lit
tie tin ore in this country and
what there was would not supply
ole-nundredth of the demand.
The sequel, as shown by facts.
proves the republicans were
right and democrats we're wrong.
The product. under a protective
tariff, is largely made at home
and the price is lower than when
it was all made abroad. Does
this look like the consumer pays
the duty and that the mauufact-
urer adds the amount of the duty
to the customer?

There is no such a thing as
harmony in the democratic camp.
When the Honorable George
Clark of Texas publicly announ-
ces his belief that Colonel Bryan
ought to be taken by the nape
OF the neck and thrown out of the
party he merely voices the re-
sentiment of the reorganizers' at
Mr.. Bryan's assertion that Judge
Parker's nomination was obtain
ed by crooked and corrupt
means Gentlemen who visit
Esopus may cry Peace, peacep
but there is no peace, and there
will be none, because the two
wings of the democratic party do
not flop together and cannot do
so, The metaphor may be mix
ed, but the idea is clear.
''In point of fact, there is no
democratic harmony, because
there is no democratic party.
What masquerades under that
title is mere temporary alliance
or rather a truce-of the Popu-
listic Bryanites, who remain in
the party in the hope of stealing
it again in 1908 and the fossilif-
erous 'reorganizers, who yearn
for office so nightly that they
are willing to make terms with
the Populist devil in order to ac-
complish their desires. The
Bryanites do not want to see
Judge Parker elected, because
they fear that Parker might call
Grover Cleveland into the cabi-
net. and they hate Cleveland
more bitterly than they hate
Roosevelt. The 'reorganizers'
are not sufficiently numerous to
make even a, showing without
the Bryanites. The result is
that, aside from the solid south
Judge Parker has no debatable
land-no fighting ground where
he can make a stand with the
hope of winning. Many of his
nominal supporters will not vote
for him, They will either vote
for Watson or Debs or even
Roosevelt or they will not vote
at all. 1fthe pilgrims to the Es-
opus shrine are telling Judge
Parker a different story they are
simply doing him an unkindness,
since the higher his hopes the
deeper will be his detection when
the result is known. There nev-
er was a time during the present
generation when the democratic
party entered national cam
paign with so complete a cer-
tainty of defeat. The reason is
that the so-called democratic
party of today is not the demo
cratic party at all. Chicago

Japan's Small Farms.

It is reported that Japan has
been importing large quantities
of food stuffs during the war for
her armies in the field which is
an unusual thing for the island
kindom. AS a rule, she grows
nearly all her own supplies on
the little farms that look like
playthings when compared with
our great wheat tracts in the
West where reaper runs all day
in a straight line. Only little
over Is per cent OF Japan is ara
BILE and, exclusive of Formosa,
only Il, 995, 272 acres are nnder
cultivation, yet from this nearly
1000, O0U people get their cloth
ing and food. The japanese
farms average less than an acre
in extent and but few are oyer
four acres. The land is divided
among so many that a farmer Of
ten has to<have some trade to
fall back on to get money enough
to support his large family, and
many raise silkworms and put in
their spare moments spinning or
reeling silk. But few Japanese
farmers employ horses to aid
them in their labors, for there is
hardly room for such a large an
imal on q farm and human labor
is more economical. The farm
utensils employed are of the
most primitive character as yet,
in spite of the attempt of the gov
ernment to introduce modern
farming machinery into rural ia.
pan. Life on the farm in Japan
is so hard that a few years ago
the government took steps to
tighten the toll and the burden
of responsibility of the agricul-
turiSt.

Impudent Mendacity.

William Dudley Foulke. of Ind.
lana, civil service commissioner
under president Roosevelt, who
has just returned from Europe,
says the plank in the democratic
platform denouncing the repub.
lican party for its continued and
sinister encroachments upon the
spirit and operation of the civil
service rules, is ga most glaring
example of impudent mendasiiy. .
The fact is, " said Mr.. Fcalke
that at no time since the adop-
ion of the law have the spirit
and operations of the rules been
SO consistently and uniformly
observed as under the admins
tration of President Roosevelt.
Not only has the system been
greatly extended and strengthen
ed, but it has been enforced as
it was never enforced before.

Soldiers Monument Dedicated.

There was dedicated Wednes.
day with appropriate ceremonies
at Monroe, Mich. a monument
commemorative of the Kentuck-
ians and their fellow-soldiers
who fell at the battle of the Riv-
er Raisin January 20, 1912.
More than half a century ago the
state of Kentucky erected at
Frankfort one of the handsom-
est battle monuments in the conn
try, near which were entombed
the ashes of the dead pioneer
soldiers, after they had lain long
neglected, and enrolled upon It
a record of their deeds. One of
the Kentuckians who fell in the
battle was Colonel John Allen
after whomAllen county Indiana,
