THE HOOK WORM HULLABALOO.

John d. Rockefeller has given mill
lion dollars to be used in curing South.
ern people OF the hook worm. 1t is
estimated that there are 10000 cases of
the disease in Georgia. So, one thous-
and dollars will cure them, at ten
cents apiece, which is the cost Of a
of dose of thymol, the remedy for the
disease.
If there are so, 900 cases in the South
they can be cured with S. 900 worth of
physic. We suppose the 1896, 900 left
will go to pay the expenses of getting
the medicine to those who are afflicted
with hook worms. 1t is like sending
money to the heathen-most of it is
required for the expense of getting it
to its destination.
Seriously, the trouble with the South
is not the hook worm, nor the clay
eaters, nor the snuff-dippers, nor the
niger question, but lot OF people
who insist on keeping these things
eternally and everlastingly before the
rest OF the country, so that the Splendid
South, the Garden Spot OF Gods Crea-
ton is misunderstood by the outside
world.
There is one very serious matter con-
fronting the Southern people and that
is pellagra, which they have contracted
either from immature Western corn, or
from Italians who have possibly
brought the disease to this country.
No matter where it comes from it is a
terrible malady and many times more
serious than hook worms. We earnest
ly hope some great movement will be
inaugurated to fight the disease. II
Mr.. Rockefeller would give a million
for the contest with this new and
strange affection, the act would en-
title him to the gratitude OF all the
people of the South and to the thous-
ands who are in the very agony Of
death.

WATSON ATTACKS DUtKWORTH,

Hon. Thomas f. Watson, in his
weekly paper, The Jeffersonian, attacks
three of the leading spirits of the
Farmers Union-Mr. Duckworth, Mr..
Bodenhamer and Mr.. G.. I. Ladson.
Mr.. Watson charges that MIR. Boden-
hamer, who is the business manager
OF Mr. Duckworth's paper, The Farm
ers' Union News, tried to make deal
with the Republicans; that Mr.. Duck
worth pretends in Georgia to be against
the ship subsidy, but in Texas advo-
Gates it; and that Mr.. Ladson, an At
lsnta lawyer, general counsel OF the
Farmers Union, inveigled the Neal
Bank officials into Cuban land deal
which broke the bank and that he is
not the man to represent the Union.
Mr.. Watson wants the local Unions
TO take up the fight. He says:
ST cannot bear to see the Farmers
Union made the dupe and cat's-paw Of
small coterie OF designing men.
Charley Barrett is pure gold, but he
has much to contend with; has to be
on the go most OF the time, and has
been naturally reluctant to believe that
he is being betrayed by men who
possess his confidence. 1t is for the
good OF the Farmers Union, and to
aid Barrett in keeping things going
right, that am exposing certain men.
"You don't want any official rela-
tions with bank-wreckers; nor with
men who almost ruin their candidates
by attempts to get Republican money;
nor with men who in Texas advocate
measure which in Georgia they classify
properly, as steal.
"Speak out in your locals, and don't
rest satisfied until your wishes have
been respected"
We are not concerned about this row
except as it may iniure the Farmers
Unicn. We call attention to Mr.. Wat
sons statement that Mr.. Bodenhamer
'almOst ruined his candidate by at
tempts to get Republican money!"
meaning that he almost ruined Mr..
Watson.
The Farmers Union has great
work to do in advancing the material
interests OF the farmers. That work
can be accomplished by following the
lines heretofore followed and staying
out of politics. II the Union goes into
politics it will die like the Alliance
died.
The men who have followed the
splendid leadership OF President Chas.
Barrett should not, in the hour OF their
have their power for good
blasted by politicians, either inside or
outside the order.

CROSSES FOR VHE DEAD HEROES.

The Daughters OF the COnfederacy
have, SO the dispatches say, declined to
provide crosses of honor for the de-
scendants of the soldiers who died on
the field Of battle.
We are not Familiar with the regula-
tions in regard to these crosses, but
they are most sacred mementoes, to be
treasured above money and above price.
The men who died in battle certainly
earned them, aud those who have died
since the war earned them as much az
they we're earned by those who are still
living.
These crosses are dearer to the South.
ern people than any thing else, except
the Gross that stood on Calvary. There
is every reason for giving the dead he.
ro's cross to his children or grandchild-
ren, or great grandchildren. Such a
course would not cheaper the crosses,
but would rather keep alive the tender
reverence. for the Lost Cause and its
brave men. Possibly the Associated
Press correspondent misunderstood the
action by the Daughters OF the Confed-
eracy, or possibly the funds with which
to provide crosses are insufficient.
As the son OF an officer treasures his
fathers sword. 90 will the son OF the
private soldier treasure the cross of the
humblest hero who gave his life for the
South.
Let us provide cross in memory Of
every man who fell, and we may be sure
that II will, in whatever jewel casket IL
finds Judgment. I've baptized In tears OF

LEO BLACKWELL.

God, in His Providence, has called
from the scenes of this life the spirit
of Leo Blackwell. The summons came
near midnight OF October 10Th, 1909.
His life of 80 years was spent in Cobb
county, near the old and historic Mari
eta campground. near the base OF
stately Kennesaw.
His was a genial spirit. Enhaling
the mountain breezes from Kennesaw's
brow, drinking in the melodies of Ma
ture's sweet songsters as he moved
among the pines and oaks of the wood
lands of North Georgia, no wonder he
was possessed with a pure and noble
manhood. No wonder that, as he
mingled unpretentiously with the SIM
pie, pure-minded country folk of his
home retceat in the mountains, he in
spired his associates to high ideals of
lite. What ether inspirations could
eminate from such spirit as his?
This true "son of the soil' traced a
pathway through life whose luster will
beam for time to come. Rays OF true
friendship, unspotted character, and
fidelity to every honorable duty can
but continue to glow athwart the path
way left by one who possessed such
lovable qualities. Such were the in
gradients OF life with which our de-
parted friend polished the footprints
he has left on the sands of time.
A good, faithful husband, a parent
honoring son, loving brother, q
neighbor-loving neighbor, an unfail-
ing friend whose meditative speech in
dictated unwillingness to speak any
hurt was Leo Blackwell. Surely God
cannot but reward such with blessings
that this world cannot supply.
His life was beautiful. Perhaps it
was enough for one life to accomplish
to polish such pathway and the
''brittle thread" severed. Whatever
the cause we can but say: Soul, take
thy rest II possible may thy rest be
sweeter by the knowledge you may
have OF halo OF sweet memories you
left behind to enrich the lives OF friends
and loved ones.
May God be protector and helper
in time OF need to the wife who mourns
your departing May she be guided
by the glittering pearls that bestud
your pathway, that some day she may
be reunited with you when there will
be no more separations.

7 MAGNOLIA TREES (
Z AND A COTTAGE {
NJ @cl

| Even when you go speeding along
Powder Springs street in red automo-
bile, you must notice two magnolia
trees in front OF cottage built like a
nest on the ground. but with most
inviting area OF verandah that extends
to a conservatory of exotics on the
eastern side and out into forest OF
giant chrysanthemums on the south
western side.
The lovely little mistress OF this cot
tage went into it as bride, and has
lived there years enough to have FAM
lily of grown-up children if the stork
had flown that way, but the only pets
she has are canaries and pigeons, and
all Kinds of tropical plants and flowers
in greenhouse and conservatory.
Things growing by main strength in
the yard and mocking- birds in the tree
tops could not be called pets, however
much one loves them. But the plants
in the greenhouse and the flowers
within the glass conservatory remind
one OF darling children tucked into snug
little beds, and when you see how fresh
and green and comfy, although crowded,
they are. you cannot doubt their CRATE
ful love for their doting mother.
The magnolias in front of the house
have been allowed to grow without
touch of pruning knife, and while their
tops overlook the cottage, the glossy
leaves also sweep the ground. One OF
those trees spreads its leaves and thrills
one with its symmetry and vivid color as
do the green feathers of peacock when
he makes fan of his plumes.
And the thick leaves have made a
screen of delicious shade, IAN emerald
twilight" for one side of the verandah.
So thick, indeed, are those magnolia
leaves they darken a window complete
ly, but rather than wound the beauti-
tiful tree, the mistress of the cottage
has removed chimney and placed 6
window there. So where at first there
was only one window, now there are
three in row, and heating stove will
take the place of a CRATE.
Time has been when trees were not
allowed to stand in the way of houses
but now we know better. A house car
be built quickly by human hands, but ,
beautiful tree is a mystery of sunshine
and rain, wintry winds and sprinl
times zephyrs, that cherish and traiI
it through long years. A. L. G.

ADVERTISING COBB COUNTY.

The Street Car Company has de-
cided to advertise the beauties and
advantages OF Marietta and Cobb
County. Mr.. Milton H. Saul was in
the city few days ago collecting in
formation for that purpose, and TAX
ing photographs.
The company has issued a neat
folder with excellent pictures and de-
scriptive matter and has hadmade and
framed fifty large and handsome
photographs which will be hung in
public places in Atlanta, showing the
beauties of Marietta.
The idea is a splendid one and the
road could not do better work. 1t
will hasten the day when the car line
from Marietta b the river will be
lined with hoSncs, The Marietta
street cars fly along the most beauti-
full section reached by any of the
suburban lines running out from the
Capital.
Atlanta and Marietta are the Twin
Cities, connected by bands of steel,
and the history of all places similar
ly situated is that the country lying
between becomes thickly settled and
the two cities beaeme almost as one.
Now is the time to put money in
real estate in Marietta and Cobb

NURSING TRE ROBO VOTE.

Editor Pendleton of the Macon Tel
egraph has coined another phrase:
IA white face and tax receipt
ought to be sufficient evidence at the
polls for any man to vote"
A white face aud tax receipt could
come direct from the penitentiary, or
from an adjoining county, or from an
adjoining state, or from Kalamazoo.
Also white face could get tax receipts
at dollar apiece az long as his
money held out. A white face and
tax receipt means the hobo vote as
opposed to the responsible, home
owning and the rent paying vote.
The right TO vote ought to be re-
stricted to the real citizens and the
only way to ascertain who are really
citizens is by proper registration.
Ever since the days of reconstruction
the people OF Georgia have been try
ing to get to a basis where every hon
est man will cast one vote and have it
honestly counted, and where the re-
suit OF an election will not depend on
political thievery and ballot box
stuffing.
"A white face and a tax receipt"
means chaos and fraud-the votes of
honest men killed by the votes OF paid
political thugs, buns and crooks.
II the people prefer fraud, or are
willing to submit to it, they may be
sure there are professional politicians
who will give it to them.
