HOG RAISING IN Georgia.

The Atlanta Georgian truthfully
saws if the farmers of Georgia would
devote more time and attention to
raising hogs the cutlery against the
use Of boracic acid and doctored
meats would soon be a thing of the
past. And why should not the
farmers of the state provide these
necessities for the people? That
the people must be fed there is no
sort of question, and that they are
entitled to the best that grows, aye,
the best that can be grown, goes
without saying. Continuing, our
contemporary says:
THE Georgia farmer has opportu-
mites for making money of which
he seems not to have dreamed. The
raising of such meats as the people
of the south require is one of these
opportunities In Georgia the farm
er has every possible facility for rails
ing hogs that is afforded in any 9TH
er section of the country. In fact,
there are many advantages afforded
the Georgia farmer that no other
section has The climate is such as
90 make the production of food
stuffs an easy matter, and in this
respect he is far ahead of the west
ern hog and cattle raiser, where for
several months of the year the
weather is so severely cold as to re-
quire very close attention to hogs
and cattle. In Georgia it is differ
ent. Even during the coolest win
tiers it is rarely the case that the
Georgia farmer has to house his hogs
and cattle, and even if he does it
is only for few days at time

AROUT COTTON.

1t appears to be whole lot pig
ger cotton crop than many believed
would be made 1t bids fair to reach
1880. 900, or even 100000 bales,
But the world seems to need the cot
ton and to want it and to pay falr
price to get it. But suppose the cot
ton growers had not looked out as
as much as they have during late
years for their own interests, or were
as timid and as easy to take fright as
they were wont to be? Would not
the price now be somewhat lower
than il is? The workings of the law
of supply and demand have not alone
been responsible for the better con-
ditions. Cotton growers have learned
more of the value of organization,
they read and keep better posted,
and they stand pat and say you
nust nav more" when the price is
beat down. The Farmers Union
has been of great benefit, and SO
has the Southern Cotton Growers
Association. Both of these Organiza-
lions have caused cotton growers to
plant with more care, to hold when
necessary, and to stand firm for
Just price The cotton grower
waited long time to move in his
own behalf, but he has learned
some things in recent years, and the
world has somewhat better regard
for him There is reason to hope
that the satisfactory condition of
the times, as to the cotton grower,
will be maintained; and let us be
glad that it is so, for upon his ma
terial prosperity must depend large
2y the welfare of the south.

The Companion for December.

Every page in The Youths Com
panion's December numbers is bright
with the spirit which makes home
the best place in the world. We'll
come as it may be on the train, in
the office, the club, it is first and
foremost the paper for the freside,
the center of interest for the group
around the evening lamp. Hamlin
Garland's fine serial story of the
Klondike, THE Long Trail" begins
with the first December issue, and
the tales in the American History
series, dealing with pioneer life in
the Mississippi country a century ago,
are crowded with heroic incident and
adventure. Noteworthy among the
contributions by persons of distinc-
ton is the article on "The Settle
ment of Disputes, by Justice Brewer
of the United States supreme court;
that on The Fall of the Barbary
Pirates" by Capt. A T. Mahan, and
that on THE Perfect Education" by
Andrew S. Draper, New York Com
missioner of Education.

NEW YORK'S WEALTH.
From the New York World

From the New 7 OrK world.
By the computation of the census
bureau the wealth of the state of
New York comprised in farms and
other real property, factories, rail-
roads, telegraphs, canals, machinery,
gold and silver, ETC., is $14,769,-
O42,207.
This is approximately one-seventh
of the national total of $107, 0OO,-
100000. 1t exceeds Italy's wealth
by nearly $2,OOO,000,O00, and is
about equal to the combined national
resources of Spain, Portugal, Switz-
erland and the Netherlands. 1t ranks
New York among the financial great
powers, with a standing just below
that of Austria-Hungary
A per capita division of the states
wealth would give $4,000 to every
man, woman and child as compared
with the national average of 1920.
1t represents the aggregate posses
sions of $1,000 plain millionaires,
fifty Carnegies or twenty Rockefel-
lers. 1t would buy all the railroads
in the United States.

RETRIBUTIvE JUSTICE.

From the Griffin News and Sun.
The News and Sun is not given to
interpreting the acts of Providence,
as a rule, but if ever there was a
case of retributive justice, and one
that must be recognized as such by
the most skeptical from one end of
the land to the other, it was in the
death of the president of the great
Southern railway system through
the very same careIessness of him
self and his employees that had de-
prived so many others of existence
occurring, too, on the day when
everybody else was giving thanks for
the blessings of life.
All of the details were such as
to fit the tragedy and show the hand
of Nemesis. The fatal accident was
caused in part by the two trains be-
ing behind their schedules; in part
by an overworked, underslept and
underpaid operator being asleep at
his post; it took place in one of
those private cars which so often
are the causes of delays; and, with
the exception of the engineer of the
rear train which dashed into this
car, no one seems to have been killed
except the president and his compan-
ions in the car. The rear train
seems to have been providentially
slowed up to avoid as far as posi-
BILE the needless killing of the hun
dreds of passengers on the other
cars in front of it.
We pass no judgment upon the
dead president. Like all men who
rico 70 bic DrOpoinonon bo bod h;c
merits and his faults as a citizen
and a railroad man; his record may
be read in the news columns of all
the papers today, and he takes a
copy of it with him where he has
gone. We merely point out a case
of poetic if not providential justice
that is as admirable in detail as it is
awe-inspiring in whole

HIGH LICENSE AND DIspENsARIEs
From the Savannah Morning News

closed at seasonable hours, and no
liquor is drank upon the premises.
In appearance a dispensary looks
like a well arranged drug store, with
neat and gentlemanly clerks behind
the counters.
In Norway and Sweden the liquor
traffic is controlled by temperance
people, and those who have charge
of it are held responsible in dam
ages for all violations of the law
They can call upon the officers Of
the law to help them in administer
ing their trust The result is that
better liquor is sold, and drinking
and drunkenness have decreased to
a notable extent.
1t is not proposed to suggest that
Savannah should undertake to run
dispensaries. 1t is on the line of
practical solution of the question
of reducing the evils incident to
drinking to discuss the municipal con-
troll of the liquor traffic and the use
of the profits of the liquor business
for the benefit of the people.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1906-12-05

The world moves. Methodist min
listers favor high license in Savan-
nah, and a prominent Baptist preach
er favors local dispensaries, as
against local option or prohibition.
DR.. Wharton advocates dispensaries
as a temperance measure. He says
they place the liquor traffic in the
hands of good men, give consumers
better liquor and, therefore, reduce
the bad effects of drinking. AT the
same time they place the profits OF
the liquor trade where they benefit
the public at large, by reducing tax
alton. Ten or twenty dispensaries
in Savannah, under the control of
temperance men, would furnish
enough money to light the city and
furnish free water.
There are a number Of towns in
Georgia where the local dispensary
pays for light and water, and there
is one where not only both Of these
utilities are free, but the dispensary
pays all other town expenses
These dispensaries are opened and

THIS SESSION OF CONGRESS.

When congress met Monday it
found on its calendar many untin-
ished measures. AS the session will
end at noon on March 4, and as the
three months remaining will allow
little time for other business than
the appropriation bills, there will be
sharp competition among the advo-
Gates of those other measures.
The recent trouble with the Jap
aMese in California is almost certain
30 strengthen the demand for the
passage of the exclusion bills. The
friends of ship subsidy have not CIV
.en Hp hope of getting their bill
passed, by some future congress II
not by the present one. The labor
people will urge that a vote be
taken on the eight-hour bill, and on
the bill against injunctions in labor
disputes. The tariff reformers and
many protectionists are working for
the removal of the duties on prod
ucts Of the Philippine Islands ad-
Imitted to this country, and those who
take broad view of the obligations
e1f the United States toward its de-
Tendencies are using what influence
they have to induce congress to de
fine the status of the Porto Ricans
Other matters to be considered
are the restriction of immigration
the right of Senator Smoot to his
seat. and the prohibition of political
contributions by corporations.
