What Fitzgerald knows about the financial
troubles is what we read in the papers.

And now comes Alabama and surrenders to
the prohibition cranks. Don't they know over on
the west side of the ChattehoOchee that 'prohibi

The spectators are being hit hard by the re-
cent furry in the money market. The truth is
the trouble was started by the plungers or what
are known in Wall street, as upstairs.

The march of prohibition thro the south is
accelerated as it progresses. The victory in Biz
mingham, Monday, is another evidence of the in
vincibility of the movement and is another in
stance of the influence of womens songs and prayers
at the polls.

Candidate Griggs, past masterin fixing news
papers, seems to have stuck his foot i'll it by meas
uring RoddenbeTy corn with Griggs half bushel.
At Sylvester, Monday, Grggs was loaded for Rod
denberry, who has been worrying the willy cong
ressman no little about the manner in which he
spends his salary to get the next term, but got
hoisted on his own petard, which was letter
charging that Roddenberry had bought 10 shares
OF Thomasville Times Enterprise stock.
Griggs is still listening at the rumblings and
counting the stars.

We have seen some splendid trade editions of
Georgia papers in recent years, but the most ex-
traOrdinary publication of the kind we have ever
seen, is the Albany Herald of October Doth.
1t is in eight sections, either of which would be
splendid paper in itSelfand good advertisement.
Its great size 100 pages is not by any means, its
strongest feature Every page is well printed and
ably edited. The splendid illustrations include
every feature of the city from the public buildings
sustaining industries and street scenes to officials
and private citizens. The paper will be worth
great deal to Albany, the best advertisement it has
had in many years..

Liquor and trouble seem to go hand in hand
Mr. j. Dub of the Dub Liquor Company, of
Savannah has filed a suit against the Southern Ex-
press Company to recover $30S which he says was
the value of several consignments of liquor shipped
from Savannah to Charleston and there seized by
the state constabulary. The liquor has been con
fscated by the state Mr.. Dub's contention is
that the express company was liable for the liquor
until it was recepted for by the consignees. For
that reason he now brings his suit. 1t is said he
is depending for verdict upon the decision OF
courts and jurieS i'll other states in similar cases.

There is one peculiar feature about the Grand
Jury's recommendation that we are at a loss to
understand. In the paragraph calling the atten-
ton of the Tax Receiver to the law giving him au-
thorty to refuse returns made on less than actual
valuation they use this language: We would
suggest that the assessment of the city property
will be made by the city assessors under the new
Charter be Il basis by which the Tax Receiver
should be governed in receiving returns of City
property and that valuation of one fourth to one
half of the city assessment be assessed as county
valuation"
e is possible that the jury believes after ex-
g the tax books of the county assessor
eturns of the property generally will
out one half to one fourth of the vain
the city assessors.
