General Botha is regarded as a man
highly qualified for the important po-
sition to which he has been chosen.
His career is one of the most remark
able examples in recent history. Ten
years ago he was an ordinary men,
Der of the Transvaal Volkstaad. A
few months later his courage and
energy brought him to the supreme
command of the Transvaal forces
For over two years he sustained
against the British a struggle whose
he realized from the be-
ginning. When the inevitable end
came near it was his influence with
his people that turned the scale in
favor of formal surrender which pre-
served the political cohesion and
moral self-respect of the Beers and in
cidentally insured his own supremacy
as their political leader.

ELEVEN DOLLAR HOG.

! Hogs have recently sold in the
markets at from $40 to $11 hun
bred pounds. OF course none of the
hogs for which these record-break-
ling prices have been paid were raised
by the farmers of Georgia or any 9TH
err southern state, but came from
the farms of the west. 1t was an
Iowa farmer who delivered the first
load, sixty-fve hogs, that brought
the highest market price in forty
years. B. L. Strohm was his name,
and as he pocketed his draft for
about $4,000 and started for home
we doubt if he gave thought con-
corning the tariff, currency reform,
or single one of the hundred themes
which the professional politicians and
Office hunters are agitating as matters
of such grave import to the imme-
date welfare of the people.
That money could blow an awful
hole in a farm mortgage 1t could
purchase as fine an automobile as
any farmer would care to own. 1t
could send boy to college and then
leave a surplus with which to enter
upon the practical affairs of life.
Farmer Strohm has come into pos
session of his own. If he wants any
thing he does not see he has the
courage to ask for it. If it can be
furnished he has the money to pay
for it.
There's lesson in it for the Geor-
gia farmer who is sticking to the
all-cotton folly.

A LESSON TO SPECTATORS.
Decision of the New York Court of
Appeals in Case of ID. w. James.


From the Augusta Chronicle.
The Court of Appeals of the state
of New York has just handed down
a decision which carries pretty
strong lesson to market spectators,
in which it decides in favor of cot
ton exchange in a suit against David
w. James, a wealthy cotton grower
and banker, who is said to have large
interests in this state and Alabama.
The suit is based on a claim of S48,-
600, said to be due to brokers on &C
count of speculative transactions
James alleged that the New York
Cotton Exchange, through which the
transactions were carried on, is moth
ing but a bucket shop" that his
dealings were gambling transactions,
pure and simple, and that he had
never intended to deliver or accept
delivery of the actual cotton. 1t de-
velOps, however, through a review of
the hearing, that James had been do
ing business through brokers on the
New York Cotton Exchange for fif-
teen or twenty years, and that on no
occasion has he hesitated to take his
profits on any transaction during that
time. The Court of Appeals holds
that even if he could show ne never
intended to accept or make delivery
of cotton supposed to have been
bought or sold" that would not
be ground for declaring the transac-
ton illegal.
Aside from settling the much moot
ed question of what speculation in
futures really is the decision of this
court serves as a lesson to show that
spectators are not so safe in play
ing the market on a large scale for
sure thing with the intention, in
the event of loss to themselves, of
taking shelter behind the plea that
their transactions were against pub
lie policy, that they should not pay
their debt because it is a gambling
debt, but never hesitating to pocket
the other mans money when they
win.

The Modern Motto Is: Easy Come,
Gone Before 1t Comes"

The fathers have eaten grapes and
the children are eating grape fruit.
We used to buy apples by the barrel;
now we buy them as we would jewels,
each in it's separate wrapper. We
used to eat pot roasts; now we must
have porterhouse steaks.
Our wives used to help the general
housework girl with the cooking;
now we need two maids, laundress,
and a man to wash windows. When
we were boys we did chores and wore
our fathers old clothes; nowadays
the American boy needs an allowance,
stockings that match his neckties,
and tuxedo jacket. We used to
think it an extravaganza to keep a
$3.50 horse and a 800 buggy; now
we buy an automobile and mortgage
our house to pay for it.
Easy come, easy go" was the old
motto. Easy come, gone before it
comes" is the modern.

MOSTLY A BIG NOISE.

The struggle of two days and a
night in congress between the demo-
Gratis and ''insurgent" republicans on
enc side and the regular republicans
on the other, with big newspaper
headlines in box car letters inform
ing the country of Speaker CannOn's
downfall" and that he had been
~ousted," seems to have been more
of a big noise than anything else,
the net result of it all being the pass
age of a resolution providing for a
reorganization of the rules commit
tee and increasing it's membership
from five to ten.
Amid scenes of widest disorder,
for the like of which one may go
back to the exciting days just prior
un the civil war-perhaps even those
ames might not duplicate 1.-THE
veteran Speaker, almost "a years old,
stood erect and defiant, his head
''blooded but unbowed." And at the
end, when a democrat accepted the
Speakers daring challenge and in
troduced a resolution to fling him out
of the speakership the republicans
regulars and insurgents" rallied
with almost unbroken party from
and gave him a vote which offset
the liquidation of Cannonism." II

truth and in behalf of the Hero of
the Cross.
Brother Mcneil was a man among
men; true citizen and devoted hus-
band, an indulgent and affectionate
father, loyal christian, and his
fidelity and faith were ever on exhi-
bition as a waving banner.
In his death Bronwood Baptist
church has sustained a great loss;
and his bereaved family have lost
an arm upon which they so tenderly,
yet firmly leaned.
Henry Freeman McNieI was born
in Franklin county on February 8,
1845, and moved to Webster county
before reaching his majority. Thence
he moved to Terrell county in 1861.
He was married to Miss Sarah A
Moore in 1871. AS a result of this
marriage eleven children were born,
nine of whom survive him. Mrs. Nc
Mel died in November 1889.
He married Miss Missouri Warren
in 1892. Of this union three chill
dren were born. Only one of these,
with the wife, remains to mourn his
death.
He joined Bronwood Baptist
church in 1875, with Rev. M. B. L.
Binion as pastor, and maintained this
sacred relation until his demise.
To his bereaved ones we extend
our deepest heartfelt sympathy in
this their dark hour, and would ad-
monish them to be comforted in the
promises of their fathers and hus-
bands God, and look unto the hills
from whence cometh strength.
