of the democratic party has become too
plain and too intolerable.
Hence there is revolt all along the
line, and HOke Smith leads it.
In such fight he has all my SYM
pathy.
If he can do for Georgia what La
Toilette has done in Wisconsin and
Folk has done in Missouri he will be-
come heroic figure in the eyes of re-
formers throughout the land. No
matter how faulty his record in the
past may have been, he is hitting the
bull's-eye this time.
For more than a generation "the
niger" has been the stock-in-trade of
the democratic party in the south. The
fear that negro domination might be
the result of a division among the
whites has compelled us to submit to
anything and everything that eastern
democrats chose to put upon us. The
manner in which the south has been
dragOoned through the democratic
party by such heartless gold-hunters
as Belmont, Morgan, Havemeyer, Ry-
an and Whitney is CROUCH to make
the cheek of every southern man burn
with shame.
Hoke Smith now proposes to strike
for southern independence by taking
away the club which eastern democrats
used to beat US down with. He pro-
poses to Danish the fear of negro
domination by DISTINGUISHING the
negro.
Whoever feels ashamed of the man
ner in which Tammany and the east
have made a foot-mat of the south;
whoever wants the south to become in
dependent; whoever wants to see
southern white men use their own
brains and vote according to the die
tates of their own convictions, must
realize that nothing can be done as
long as the south is forever frightened
into political paralysis by the cry of
negro domination.
Hoke Smith proposes. to put this old
bugabOo out of business.
If he can do it he will have done
splendid work for southern independ-

BoER FARMERS FOR GEORGIA

The Savannah Morning News notes
the arrival in that city by steamship
of fifteen Beers en- route to Helena, in
Telfair county, near which place
they Joined a colony of settlers which
is being esta blished and fostered by
the citizens of that community. The
immigration of the settlers is the re-
suit of a systematic effort begun some
time ago to get a good class of worthy
people to develop the agricultural re-
sources of the rich farm lands about
Helena. The colony is growing
staunchly, and the section is consid-
cred one of the best in south Georgia
The Beers are said to be successful
farmers. They are accustomed to ad
verse conditions and hard labor. They
possess the agricultural instinct, anG
practice the most rigid economy. Be
ing reared with the idea of producing
the necessities within the bounds O
their own farms it is thought by the
promoters of the colony that the Afri
canders will make the ideal pioneer
needed as developers. The experimen
will be watched with interest.

Point That Is Overlooked.
From the Dublin Courier.
Some of those who are always urg-

court have to work very hard are
pointing to the death of Chief Justice
Simmons as proof positive of their
charge. They neglect to state that
Judge Simmons was on the supreme
bench something like twenty years OF
so, and was nearly seventy years OF
age at the time of his death.

his prophecy perfectly true will be

TERRELEs LAND AND FARMERS

Terrell county lands have, in sever
al instances recently, sold for $50 per
acre. There can be no question that,
acre for acre, it brings more than any
other farming soil in the state. This
is true because Terrell produces more
cotton to the acreage planted than any
other county in Georgia.
The increase in values has been rap
i'd. Lands in the county have more
than doubled in price within the past
ten years. And they continue to be
enhanced
All of this is directly attributable to
the intelligent, scientific and liberal
farming methods employed by the
farmers of Terrell. 1t is this good
farming that has brought the lands
no to their high standard of quality.
Nowhere in the south can a better ed
ucated, more upright and progress
sive people be found than those who
live on and till the farms of Terrell
county.

MIR. GRAVES ANNOUNCES AGAIN

MIR. GRAVES ANNOUNCES AGAIN
In two column announcement in
Sundays papers Hon. John Temple
Graves again reminded the people Of
his ambition to be United States sena-
tor, and set forth his reasons for hop
ing to be thus honOred.
Mr.. Graves feels that he has won a
place in the affections of the people by
the battles he has fought in their
cause, the eloquence with which he has
portrayed their deeds and their vir-
tues, and the soul-stirring word pict-
ures he has painted of their heroes.
But, as the Savannah News says,
''he will make mistake if he fails to
recognize that he is up against hard
proposition in the incumbent in the Of
fee he wants. Besides being close to
the people Mr.. Bacon has a record for
faithful and valuable services that
will make him a hard man to defeat. "
Mr.. Graves is an able and eloquent
man, and Senator Bacon is a great
man. The result of the race will be
that Mr.. Graves will have a
lot of valuable experience when he
gets through, even if he doesn't sue
coed in getting anything else"

"SHOULD EXPLAIN"

Under the above caption the Eufaula
Times says:
The fact that Dawson has just
voted large bond issue for water
works is liable to create sus-
piciOn in the minds of some peo-
pie that all of that talk about the
dispensary paying all taxes OF
Terrell county is probably hoax.
Is it a fact that Terrell county
gets all the revenue from the dis
pensary, and if so what is Dawson
sitting up there Boosting about!
On the other hand, if Dawson gets
part of it why should she issue
bonds for waterwOrkS? Maybe
Brother Rainey might explain
this for tie benefit of the public.
That's easy. Dawson has never
boosted of anything except being a
live, hustling town, with as fine citi-
zenry as can be found in weeks
travel. She is every bit of that And
keeping step with the march of pro-
gress-owning her own electric light
plant and waterworks, having a
paid fire department, an excellent sys-

tirely by taxation, and handsome

expenses are necessarily considerable,
and much more than her half OF the
profits received from the dispensary.
There is a very exaggerated idea
abroad to the effect that the dispen-
sary, which was established by the
anti-saloOn element as the only way
in which a half dozen or more bar
rooms could be closed, pays all of the
taxes of the county and town. The
fact is, it never has; and it has never
been claimed that it has by anyone
who is we'll informed, or knows any
thing about the matter. Every year
since the dispensary has been in exist
ence the city of Dawson has levied
and collected taxes, in varying
amounts, as it had always done be-
fore.
