oNDoN. Aug. 1l.-If the provin-
cial tour Of THE Lion and the
Mouse" which Walter Maxwell Is
taking out this week, should
happen to prove hig success, II is
probable that Charles Frohman viii
be an excessively annoyed man. There
is more than chsuce that this will
come of. too, for Il was generally
agreed that It's foreign atmosphere
was all that prevented the Klein play
from scoring a hit when it was orig
inally presented in London and when
The piece is given IN the big provin-
cial cities, there will be no cause for
fault-hndng on this score, at any
rate.
For. prior 20 trying the famous
American play on audiences IN the
provinces, Walter Maxwell who Is an
old hand at the theatrical game In this
countiy-has had It's action entirely
transferred TO England, and made Eng
llsh men and women of its characters.
SO, II II should prove that this was
Just the one thing necessary TO make
The Lion aud the Mouse go with
British audiences, doubtless both Mr..
Frohman and Charles Klein Will be
very sick ~ think that this wasn't
done al the outset, or before the piece
was put on at the Duke Of Yorks.
And IN that case, too, the question
IS sure TO come up again as to whether
Il Is u isn't eXpedient to "Anglicizc"
American pieces before they are pro-
duccd IN this country. Most critics
ayerred, II may be remembered, that
"Shorc Acres" failed IN London for tho
very reason that its locale was trans
ferrcd from New England to Cornwall,

was not any excitement, as Col. Eschol
Graham had no opposition in his race for the un-

of the stock holders of the compress nearly
month ago and he wired today to Mr. E. K.
Farmer, who negotiated the purchased. accept
ing the proposition made by the stockholders.
The business men who put their money
into the Compress did so without the hope
of large profits from the investment and as the
price received for the press was satisfactory
promoters or original investors are 10 be con-
graduated on the fact that the press is in the
hands of company that can easily keep it
going at profit throughout the season.
With the territory already controlled by the
new owners to say nothing of the extension into
the cotton belt of Alabama will enable them to
to put thro the press at least rs, 100000 bales
per annum. All this means a larger pay
roll and better cotton market and that was the
object of the people who first bought the
press and set it up.

no! FOR THE new COUNTY.

Permit me to say to the people of Fitzger-
aid and Irwin County that if it is their wish
that new county be created as proposed last
summer it is time for action.
lam firmly convinced that IS per cent OF
the people of Wilcox end Irwin who will be at
fected by the creation of county with
Fitzgerald as the county-seat are strongly in
favor of the movement.
Almost as large percentage of the popua-
ton who will be left in Irwin County after the
proposed cut are now favorable to the PROPOSE
ton. Probably no other proposed legislation
affecting the county has ever met with such
universal favor; aud there is scarcely any doubt
that the legislature will give our people the re-
lief they so much desired during its next session.
The showing made before the New County
Committee one year ago challenged the atten-
ton of the entire state of Georgia. The friends
of the measure went into the contest without
expenses and though success did not then
crown their efforts the foundation was laid Tor
a success that is sure to come. One merit OF
our cause is our great need for new county
without question, and it only remains TOR the
people who live within the Territory of the pro-
posed NEW COUNTY OF BEN HILL to
make known to their friends throughout the
State that they still want it; and make them
take the mater up with their local Representa-
tves and Senators.
Many Representatives and Senator request
ed your local Representative, Mr.. Wilcox and
members of the Northen County delegation to
prepare special bill providing for the creation
of new county with Fitzgerald as the county
site on the eve of last ummer's session of the
Legislature Such bill was prepared, favor
ably reported ON, and is now pending in the
House; and no doubt Mr.. Wilcox will be able to
secure favorable action upon it early in the next
session which convenes June 9th.
The name of the proposed new county has
been changed from Northen to Ben Hill. This
was done on account of decided sentiment
which prevails against naming counties for v-
ing statesmen.
Many of Ex-Governor Northen's friends
greatly desired to honor him by connecting his
name with this thriving community which was
planted upon Georgia's soil largely through his-
instrumentality.
The honor would have been deserved one.
The name CT that peerless patriot and
statesman Ben Hill is one that all Georgians
delight to honor and it is fitting monument
to his memory that one of the most prosperous
and progressive counties in the state he served
so long and we'll should be named for him. So
BEN HILL COUNTY it will be, provided our
people are alive to the opportunity that is now
presented TO them. To the friends of the New
County movement, wish to say, stand by your
representative and your New County Committee
and give them your hearty cooperation. Your
past record of loyalty to the interests OF Fitz-
gerald and Irwin County constrains me TO be-
lieve that you will do your duty in this matter.
Yours to serve,
D. B. JAY.
