DENNY MAY BE MADE Dish oP

There is a strong probability
that the General Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, now in session in Birming-
ham will elect the Rev. Collins
Denny, of Vanderbilt University,
as one of the two Bishops to be
chosen at this time. DIR. Denny
is one of the most superbly
equipped men in ministry of the
denomination for the place. He is
ripe scholar, a man of exalted
character and a thorough Metho-
dist. He is regarded as one of the
most successful educators of the
South and was highly spoken of at
the time for the first Presidency OF
the University of Virginia. Rev,
Mr. Denny's election would be a
merited recognition of one of
Methodism's really big men. He
enjoys very wide acquaintance
throughout the South, and no
name that could be considered
would be more popular than his.

Going through the hospitals in our
large cities one is surprised to find such
a large proportion of the patients lying
on those snow-white beds women
and girls, who are either awaiting
or recovering from serions operations.
Why should this be the case? Sim
ply because they have neglected them
selves. Female troubles are certainly
on the increase among the women of
this country-they creep upon them
unawares, but every one of those
patients in the hospital beds had plenty
of warning in that bearing-down feel
ing, pain at left or right of the abdomen,
nervous-exhaustion, pain in the small
of the back, dizziness, flatulency, dis
placements of the organs or irregular
tiles. All of these symptoms are indi-
cations of an unhealthy condition of
the female organs, and if not needed
the penalty has to be paid by a danger
Gus operation. When these symptoms
manifest themselves, do not drag along
until you are obliged to go to the hos
pital and submit to an operation
but remember that Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has saved
thousands of women from surgical
operations.

The ORIGIN of Grocer.

Grocer appears In Holinshed's Chron-
tcle, 1880, as "grosser," and In other
medieval records it is sometimes
written "engrosser," and was applied
to the spicers and pepperers who were
wholesale dealers In various spices
that is, who dealt en- gros-in large
quantities, as distinguished from ''re-
Orators" who were retail dealers. The
Grocers' company first adopted the
word grocer in 1873, when the splcers
and pepperers allied themselves into a
single Observation-Disclosures Express.

SOMETHING THAI TERRELL DID

one could tell him of anything that
Gov. Terrell stood for in his first
race. j. Pope is referred to the

chise tax; it was his hobby, and
was embraced in his first message.

Matthews of Fort Valley was
chairman of the railroad commit
tee and recommended its passage.
And the state still reaps a large
tax from it. Yes, Gov. Terrell

San INSULT" Bah!

1t is a well known fact that in
impolite society the bully is always
looking for any "insult" upon
which to predicate a row. The
Atlanta Journal has discovered
that the official heads of the Dem
ocratic party in Georgia "have in
suited the white people of Geor-
gia."
This is a serious charge, which
the Journal must make good, or
else it will meet with that just
condemnation which such a reck-
less aud unjust charge deserves.
The offense is simply this: The
official heads of the party declared
that all voters in the primary
must vote ticket on which the
affirmation is made that the voter
is Democrat.
Which means that those who
have been affiliating with other
parties must vote, if they vote at
all, as Democrats.
1t takes terrible wrench Of the
Imagination to construe this into
an "insult.n
The requirement put upon the
voter cannot affect in the slightest
degree the man who has always
been voting the Democratic ticket;
it cannot affect in the slightest de-
gree the man who has been voting
the Democratic ticket during the
last one, two, or three campaigns
only, because he is now on the
same footing with those who have
always been democrats.
1t cannot affect in the slightest
degree the man who has been vot-
ing against the Democratic party
tickets in the past, but who now
desires in good faith to realign
with, or join, the Democratic
party, because the act of re-align-
ing puts him in the same party pO-
sition with the first two named.
There is no "insult," no slight,
no hardship on anybody that is
proposing to act in good faith to
the party, and conscientously with
himself.
The only check, the only re-
straint, the only setback is upon
those who set out deliberately upon
an unheardof scheme to admit for
partisan purpose in the Demo
cratic primary members of other
political parties without renounc-
ing their political affiliations, and
without becoming democrats.
These schemers, finding their
wicked plans checkmated, are aw-
fully chagrined, and the chagrin
so wounds their hopes that they
vainlY try to shift the burden by
calling it an insult"
Beautiful birds are these party
wreckers!
1t is high time we were knowing
who are Democrats and what is
Democracyin Georgia. The party
heads acted none too soon, nor
too decisively. Those who can
not inhale the newly clarified at
mosphere without feeling a soffo-
eating sense of "insult' in their
"innards" have their way Of es-
cape. There are other and more
congenial atmospheres to seek and
to be found.
This talk about "an insult"
would be childish, if it were not
wicked. Macon Telegraph.

PERSIAN Shah DEGREES
A NATIONAL ASSEMBLY

Washington, Aug. 11.-For the first
time in her history Persia is to have a
national assembly. This information
has been conveyed to the Persian min
lister here in q oablegram from the
grand vizier and minister of foreign
sffairs, who stated that in view of the
desire of his imperial majesty, the
shah. for the extension of national
tranquility and for the welfare Of Per-
STA and all its inhabitants, and in or
der to fortify the government, it had
been deemed necessary to give certain
reforms and constitution durable for
the country and for the administration.
The immediate organization Of q ma
tional assembly for the realization Of
these reforms accordingly was ordered.
The assembly will be composed Of
princes Of the blood, clergy, chiefs of
the reigning dynasty, high dignitaries
and personages, merchants and repre-
sentatives of corporations. and will
meet at Teheran.
It was pointed out by the Persian
minister that this action, following
within one week the appointment of
the new grand vizier, is indicative Of
that officials progressive ideas and
that much good is expected to result
from his leadership.

REALTY OF BANKS


State commission Promulsasss Ruls tot
Id Taxation.
Olympia, Aug. 16.-In the absence
Of any ruling by the courts on tn
subject, the state tax commission has
passed on the question Of tho proper
valuation to be placed on real etsate
owned by banks, In connection with
the assessment Of bank stock. The
tax commission says such property
should be assessed at it's market value.
The inquiry at hand comes from the
board of equalization Of Jefferson
county, but the question raised is en-
countered in various parts Of the state.
In Port Townsend the local banks had
been obliged to take property on fore
che ure proceedings which cost the
banks much more than the property
was worth in the market. In other
counties the same question is present
ed where property is worth much more
than what it cost the banks.
"a rule to be equitable " says
Commissioner J. 81. yesterday for the
tax board, SHOULD work both ways. !"
In conclusion Mr.. yesterday says:
"Bank stock should be assessed at
it's market value after deducting there
from the market value of the real
property owned by such bank"
