Solicitor E. D. Graham, who is at Ocilla this
week attending Irwin Superior court, is candi-
date for re- election and finds it pretty much his
way in this neck o. the woods. He is one of the
ablest solicitors general in the state, thoro and
business like in the conduct Of his Office and it is
hardly probable that the voters of the district will
trade him off this year.

Augusta is the only city in the state

EtNot as long as the Anti Saloon League is
as active as it is at the present time. Dublin
Courier Dispatch.
1t seems quite necessary for the Anti Saloon
League and all friends of prohibition clean govern
ment and clean officials, to be active in some
parts of Georgia. We know of candidates who
have announced on platforms that appear on the
surface to be wholly free from the "tainted ring"
but who really are running under cover" How
ever we reiterate, Eby their past records shall
We know them,' and the "uncovering" of such is
daily coming to pass and their masks will be COM
pletely torn off at the ballot box; we are much
mistaken in the great majority Of Georgas voters.
You can fool the people for little while but it
don't last long now a'days.

Fitzgeralds banks have been her pride and
the very best evidence of her prosperity. The
record is most remarkable one indeed, and the
man who guesses that we have reached the limit
in growth is doomed to disappointment
The Third National, just sixty days old, passed
the fifty thousand dollar mark yesterday.
When we consider that the bank opened it's
doors in the midst of the greatest money strngency
of recent years, and that it has no large firm

it is the season of the year when money is scarce
and in hot competition with three older and well
managed banks we consider the showing very

The banks management is in the hands Of
President E. n Davis, Vice President A. B. Cook
and Cashier G. E. Baker who give it their perso

It's success was assured from the start and its
growth is a matter of local pride with every man
interested in the cty's welfare.

Fitzgerald is not the only place that is blest
with hot politics. There is something doing over
in old Irwin. Hon. J. A. j. Henderson, the pres
ent SENATOR is the only candidate for the legisla
ture, but there is talk of OPPOSITION to him. We
have not discussed the matter with him but VIC
have heard enough to know that the opposition to
him is based largely on the fact that he is not an
ADMINISTRATION man. Irwin one of the strongest
