Georgia has passed through lis
Legislature a drastic reform bill.
which landed with S thud .on the
heads OF manufactures and dealers
In intoxicants. The bill prohibits
the manufacture Of and sale Of any
intoKicant within the state, the
measuse taking effect on January
LIST next. Georgia is perhaps the
only state in the union which has
such a drastic reform measure, With
the single exception Of Maine.
Tennessee is practically prohibit
ton state, only the metropolitan
cities enjoying the privilege Of sell
ing intoxicants. Kentucky is also
fast falling into line, and it will be
but few years until we can boast
for old Kentucky az being a model
state.

Hickman and Fulton Counties, sub
ject to the endorsement OF the demo
cratic primary to be held in Hickman
September 4.
Mr.. Jackson, "Uncle Toe as he
is known. is the present incumbent,
and asks that the voters consider his
candidacy, and at the same time re-
fers to his official record in the legis-
lature. Following is an extract
from the Clinton Gazette, under date
of May 7. 1907
"As a member Of the House at the
last session OF the Legislature he
proved on every occasion when
brought 10 the test that he was In
the truest sense the representative
of the people. In exercising his
iudgmen, in voting on all measures
that came before that body he al
wavs studied the best interests OF his
constituency and no other influence
ever had any weight With him.
Where Il vas possible he consulted
his constituents before voting, show
ing that he looked upon himself as
the servant Of his people whose
chief desire was 10 carry out their
wishes. His reputation for honesty
aud high integrity was SO well
knovn at Frankfort that be vas
looked up N by every interest
and every lobby as a man Il would
not DO 20 approach. He stood for
economy in the administration Of the
State government and his vote stand
recorded in the House Journal
against every species OF graft and
extravagance that popped It's head up
during the session and heaven
knows the calendar vas rank with
bills aimed at the peoples money in
the State treasury.
Mr.. Jackson asks the Democrats
OF tiiis district 10 put the seal OF
their approval on his record. He
is a farmer and is in a position to
understand what the farmers need
and want m the way OF legislation.
With the experience he gained at
the last session he would be IN a posi- .
ton to WELD greater influence IN the
next Legislature. and We will surely
need the influence Of inoorruptible
patriots In Frankfort next winter"

A Big Success.

VALUATION MCREAsEp.

Recent official figures show a de-
cided increase in the taxable value
Of Tennessee. The major part OF
the counties show an increase, while
some few, sixteen perhaps. show a
decrease over the previous year.
Among the counties showing a de-
crease, is found Obion, cur neigh
bor,county. which decrease is 81 ~ b.
iO7. Withal the prosperity Of our
neighbor, this shows an agreeable
comparison 10 the condition Of our
own county, Fulton, which as will
be remembered by figures published
in the Courier several weeks since.
Increased in taxable value over last
year.

The report has been in current
circulation that Eisenbarih's show
was a fake this year. This is no
doubt untrue. as the Courier has
been advised by uninterested parties
that the show was a good one.
Everyone knows the reputation Of
this show, and this apparently
falsely circulated report should not
influence the public.

Mr.. J. M. Scott, former resident
Of Columbus. vas shot down IN Hell

Helena several months ago from
Columbus, and was acting as city

attack was made recently on the
city administration by the World,
resulting ia the dismissal OF several
Of the officers. Il is thought that
this had something 10 do with the
murder.

ROBBINS WITHDREW.

The Caleb Powers case came up
for trial in an extra session OF the
Scott Circuit Court, at Georgetown,
on the 2Mh inst, and almost i'm
mediately after the case was called.
Powers filed a lengthy affidavit,
bringing various charges against
Judge ]. <. Robbins. the trial Judge
who was appointed by the Governor,
10 try the case. and asking that he
vacate the bench.
Il is not thought however that he
is very well pleased with the result
OF his affidavit. The commonwealth
disproved the charges and Judge
Robbins refuted each one Of them
and branded them as false. In the
meantime in reading bis reply in
which he withdrew from the bench
be reprimanded Powers for bringing
false charges.
This vacation by Robbins dis
missed the case for a future trial.
which was contrary to the wishes OF
the defense. Il seems that Powers
had filed a similar affidavit in a
former trial.
The integrity and impartiality Of
Judge Robbins cannot be questioned f;
be having been our Circuit Judge
for many years. be is known 10 all
our people-and the tactics assumed
by Powers. will no doubt injure his
interests in a future trial.

REPUBLICAN SCHEME.

From the Fort Worth Record we clip the following
statement of why the State Capital and other Republican
papers and influence fighting G. N. HASKELL Read it:
Crank Greer editor of the Guthrie State Capital,
has arrived here on his way home from Washington,
where he has been with the Republican committee to in
tevew the president about the Oklahoma constitution
Mr. Greer in an interview gave out startling state
ments. He said:
Governor Frantz will call the election He will not
disobey an Injunction but the way will undoubtedly be
made clear by the supreme court Of Oklahoma before the
time limit expires for calling an election do not think
the Pancoast decision will stand The Republicans will
nominate strage state ticket This ticket they will not
try to elect They will not ask the people to vote for
them The state ticket will be the mouhpiece Of the
ganzaton and instead Of campaigning for their cleo
ton the nominees will campaign against the constitution
The constitution is certain Of defeat There will be no
statehood this year. The sentiment against it growing
rapidly month ago did not believe the constitution
could be defeated but believe it will now.
II know there several of the strong party papers
that have announced that they will support the constu
tion regardless Of the action Of the state organization but
believe that after the state convention has been held
and the party has declared against the constitution which
it viii do these papers will fall in line.
II believe Haskell will be defeated for the nomina-
ton for governor The for this is because the
stituton is going be defeated Ii Haskell nominated
by the Democrats June the constitution will be carried
at the August election If Haskell is defeated for the
nomination it will indicate that the constitution will also
be defeated Haskell and the constitution are insepara-
BILE and if one goes down to defeat will the other.
regard vote against Haskell vote against the consti
tuition in the Democratic primaries.
"This statement from Mr.. Greer coming right after
the Washington conference considered very significant
aud is the first declaration to the policy determined
upon by the Republicans of Oklahoma their confer
ence with Roosevelt and Bonaparte. Tribune
