LEGlSLATURE MEETS SOON

In few weeks the Georgia Legis-
lature will be with us again BY that
time the state primary will be mat
ter of ancient history and the citi-
zens can settle down to a full enjoy
ment of the doings of their represen-
tatives.
In discussing the coming session, the
Atlanta Georgian says:
That it will be a lively session
seems assured. Several of the reform
measures advocated by the present ad-
ministration will come up for final
action in some form.
Among important matters for con-
sideratiOn will be the redistricting OF
the state. bill for which was intro
duced in the last session. The Wright
anti-lobbying bill will also come up
for action The bill to increase the
fertilizer tag tax from 10 to p cents
per ton is also uncompleted bust
ness.
One of the hottest fights, however,
will come over the convict lease sys-
tenn, the present lease expiring next
spring. This matter is likely to oc-
cupy considerable time during the
session. At this time it seems as if
there would be at least a modification
of the existing system.
In the senate a president is to be
named for the session to take the
place of the late John w Akin. Sew
eral candidates are in the field, all OF
whom are good strong men. Altoge-
Their this promises to be one OF the
liveliest session of years.

The Business Prospect.
Washington POst.)

June begins the real summer sea-
son with many signs of returning
prosperity May was not a very good
month. 1t would have been better for
business if the weather had been
warmer But there were abundant
rains, which aided the growing crops,
and the tendency in manufacturing
circles was to start idle wheels, pre-
paratory to meeting a substantial de-
mand this summer and fall. Merch-
andise stocks held by jObbers and
retailers are getting low, on account
of the cautious buying of the last six
months, and this means the placing
of large orders. Several of the larg-
est cotton mills will resume opera
lions this week In the West a con-
certed movement to employ idle men
has been effected, and the number OF
the unemployed in the large Eastern
cities is steadily diminishing.
In such basic industries as leather
and wool manufactures, the prospects
are encouraging. There is an in
creasing demand for footwear and
heavy leather goods. Oregon is be-
ginning the sale of wool, and the
number of wooden factories in opera
ton is increasing The price of build
ing materials has declined to point
where construction is encouraged, and
while the springs record of building
operations is poor, there has been a
turn for the better. One of the good
features of the situation is the en-
larged demand for finished steel not
ably in the form of pipe. Pig iron
sales have been large, which is solid
proof Of renewed activity in many
directions The plentifulness of mon
ey and its cheapness have encourage
ed promoters of industrial enterprises
and railroad builders to renew their
plans of expansion Some of the best
informed railroad men foresee a bus
mess that will tax the capacity of
| their equipment.
The crops have advanced to a point
| where they are the basis of business
calculations. The winter wheat crop
is above the average Spring wheat
gives great promise, judging by it's
condition on June /. Corn planting
which was delayed by wet weather
last month, is now being prosecuted
vigorously. There is nothing to indi-
cate that nature will not be more
( bountiful than ever. On the strength
| of the outlook, merchants are begin
ming to order for a busy fall trade.

small Is his influence is seen in the
miserable maneuver of his party in
Congress with the Crumpacker bill to
defeat the hope of honest elections.
There was lying before the House the
Mccall bill, which if passed, would
have restrained if it would not have
ended the corrupting power OF money
in national contests. For this reason,
and none other, it was decreed in the
high council of the party that the Nc
Call bill should not be passed, and
the Crumpacker bill was dragged out
of the lumber room as the agency for
accomplishing the nefarlous pur-
pose
With this ends the hope that the
next Presidential election will be
more free from corruption than its
recent predecessors. Well meaning
as Secretary Taft is conceded to be-
when nominated he will be lin the
hands of his friends" and will be
drawn in the current of his party
without power of resistance.

BULLETIN SERVICE
WATCHED BY MANY
TimeS-ReCOrder' S Bulletins
Up to Top Notch.

Interested crowds stood around the
bulletin boards of the Times-Recor-
der office yesterday AS each success
siVe dispatch was posted everybody
turned his peppers toward it. Gen
orally it was read aloud for the bene-
fit of those who could not get close
enough to see.
Early returns were more favorable
to Mr.. Brown, and considerable en-
thusiasm was aroused by the reading
of the kilograms Every now and
then a message favorable to Gov.
Smith came in, and this was appre-
ciated by the supporters of that can
didate, who were disappointed in the
other messages. These the Brown
supporters were inclined to explain
away in various fashions.
Along about 4 o'clock there was
lull in the messages, due in part to
the fact that the afternoon papers
were going to press and the service
for the morning papers was not in
full blast. Then too the country
districts had closed their polls and
the count was in progress.
The Times-ReCorder's messages
were many, keeping the people in
formed of the views from many sec
tiOns of the state. The earlier bulIe-
tins were largely shrewd surmises.
but they made entertaining reading.
The service was a complete one, be-
ing furnished from the reports of the
two large city dailies, supplemented
by the Western Union service, the
Postal and the Bell Telephone Be
sides all this, specials were received
from different sections of the state.
At night the news was flashed by a
stereOpticOn on canvas, the returns
being watched by a large crowd.

LF-HYPNOTIZED MAN

She says he has recently devoted

Ready for the Frying of the Fat.
philadelphia Record.)

From the standpoint of political
mortality there certainly should be
nothing surprising in the fact that the
two presumable candidates for Presi-
dent of the United States have made
open and earnest declaration in favor
of an honest campaign. Nor is it
surprising that neither of them
makes the least attempt to blink the
fact of widespread political corrup-
ton. If there were people who be-
lieved in 1904 that the dominant party
had broken with this practice they
are not to be found anymore Every
one knows now from the evidence
that the debauchery of the election in
New York and other states four years
ago was without former example. 1t
is not improbable that the scandal has
had its share in the repugnance to
President ROosevelt's nomination for
a third term.
The potential cause of corruption
of the national elections lies in the
strong interest of the privileged
Trusts and mOnopolies in maintaining
the rule of the Republican party.

tary Taft may not be questioned, how
