United States Court
Respites Rawlings Again

Valdosta, Ga, July 31.-United
States Marshal George White, of
Macon, accompanied by Assist
ant District Attorney Alderman,
was here today and served pa
pers upon Sheriff Passmore to
prevent the execution of J. G.
Rawlings next Friday.
Solicitor General Thomas was
summoned TO attend tonight by
telegram from Governor Terrill,
stating that he wanted the Sol
icitor to consult with him and At.
torney General Hart tomorrow.
There is some sentiment in
favor of ignoring the order from
the Federal Court and especially
so since many regard the OBJ
iect of the whole proceeding as
merely TO delay the execution of
the law.
Sheriff Passmore said this
afternoon that he is under
Governor Terrell and will do
what the Governor says do.

Mr.. Fielder arose for a ques-
ton.
docs the gentlemen know
that it has been whispered
around the house that the
gentleman himself suggested
the shape in which this bill comes
here?"
II did suggest to the editor OF
the Fitzgerald Enterprise that

amendment" replied Mr.. Hall,

esy.
1T is unfair for any one to en-.

The first estimate for the
Georgia cotton crop of 1906 was
| set at the above number today,
Commissioner of Agriculture L.
G. Hudson.
This is $4,000 bales less than
the crop for 1905.
The condition of the crop is re-
ported at II 1-3 per cent as
against IS per cent for the cor
responding period of 1905.
These estimates were made
today and announced by the de-
partment of agriculture, based
on a thousand reports from the

On July 81, Commissioner
Hudson sent out inquiries to
1000 correspondents IN the
state asking for crop conditions
and estimates.
These reports were com piled
and the estimates deducted as

Amid much enthusiasm among
members and visitors, many
ladies' appearing among the lat.
ter in the lower gallery, the low.
err branch of the general Assem-.
bly, Tuesday morning, by vote
Of 147 to 9, passed the house sub
stitute for a senate bill, creating
the proposed new county of Ben
Hill from portions of Irwin and
Wilcox counties, with Fitzgerald
as the county seat.
The senate at once concurred
in the substitute and the consti-
tutiona1 amendment involved
will be submitted to the voters
for ratification at the next gener-
al election. There appears to
be no doubt that the act will be
approved at the pollS.
EDITOR MERGERS WORK.
Few measures considered at
the present session of the gener-
al Assem- bly, have caused more in
tense interest and during its
consideration the gallery of the
house was we'll filled with visitors,
who listened intently to the debate
upon the floor.
Among those who have worked
in favor of the creation of the
county Of Ben Hill none is more
conspicuous than Editor Jesse
Mercer, of the Fitzgerald Enter
prise. For over two years he
has urged the enactment of leg
islation with that object in view
and the final passage of the bill
is due ID no small degree to his
-
jealous efforts.
The special order of business
was a bill by Senator Wilcox, OF
the 18th, and substitute, to create
the county of Ben Hill from
portions of Irwin and Wilcox
with Fitzgerald as the county
seat.
Mr.. Hall. of Bib, submitted a
minority report, in which he de-
clared that the proposed leglsla'
ton was i1l-advised and radical.
Mr.. Hall called the attention OF
the members to the fact that a
measure was pending to create
the county of Phil Cook, each
proposing to amend the same
sec ion of the constitution. lie
insisted that action should be de-
ferred in order that the two
measures might be consolidated
in case both passed, thus saving
the cost of advertising two sep
arate proposed amendments.
Mr.. Graham, of Telfair, inter
rupted the speaker.
rs it not true that in the even
the bills are consolidated that I
person will be compelled to vot'
for or against both?"
Mr.. Hall admitted as much
concluding:
THAT just shows what a mes
you are in"
Messrs. Fielder. of Bibb. ant
Flynt, of Spalding. spoke agains
the consolidation OF the NV
measures on the grounds tina
the passage of each might tber
by be placed in jeopardy.
Mr.. Wilcox, of Irwin, argue
in favor of this bill.
A call for the previous ques
ton by Mr.. Kelly, of Glascocl
was sustained.

The Secret Of Good Farming.

c. w. Burkett, in Progressive Farmer.
We readily recognize quality anc
its value in men. We call 1t character
Why not acknowledge the same wher
we have to do with the various phase
of farming?
Quality-what is 1t?
The first attribute of success in al
things. 1t is the best seed cottor
obtainable. 1t is seed corn selected
from the best and most prolific stalks
1t is soil-well titled, improved by cul
ture, legumes and cover crops.
1t Is the cow-Nith milk or bee
form, which earns living and pays
her owner we'll tor her care and
trouble.
1t Is the hog--broad over back and
shoulders deep in the sides and fine in
bone, legs and head. Quality is every
phase of soil or crop or animal. 1t is
tae best obtainabie for our enviro.
ments and conditions.
Finally, quality is the good farmer
the man who reads, who studies, ex-
periments the man who believes IL
his work and feels honored by it.
Quality is the good farmer.
