negro DIPLOMAT
ON TO HIS JOB
CanROn's Man Eager to Drive
Champ CIark's Mules.

Washington d. c., November =
Neil, the suave and diplomatic negro
who has held the job of messenger TO
the speaker of the house under all POI
litieal regimes since John G. Car
isles time, does not mean to go out
the cold with the rest of the Cannon
crowd after March 4, if a little soft
soap and adaptability can save him.
When he read the election returns
Wednesday he Immediately jumped to
the conclusion that the next occupant
of the speakers room would be Champ
Clark, of Missouri. Neil had previous
ly read of Champ Clark's declaration
that if the democrats won the house he
would drive a team of Missouri mules
up Pennsylvania avenue. During the
day newspaper man encountered Neil
in the house corridor The dusky dip
lomat greeted him effusively and then
proceeded to inquire solicitiously
when Champ Clark was expected in
Washington.
Indeed, I'll be glad to see Mr. Clark
and I'm going to try to see him just
as soon as he gets in. / just want TO
tell you, colonel" he went on en-
thustically, that if there's any man
round this yer capitol who knows how
to handle a pair of mules, I'm that
identical man; deed l am, colonel"

PRICES OF MEAT
Says ChGapnGSS Of Other
StUpIeS Means Relief.

Kansas City, Mo-, November IA
That food prices are now on the down
grade is the belief of meat packers il
Kansas iCty and other packing cen
tres. Dealers in produce and other
food supplies say the same thing.
Charles w. Armour head of the
Armour interests in Kansas City
says:
General food prices are working
toward a lower basis. The cereals are
getting down. People are going tC
take advantage of these lower prices
and that viii have tendency to re
lieve the stringency is meat prices, es.
pecially pork"
Mr. Armour said many of the grow
ers of fruit and potatoes last yeal
stored their crops rather than sci
at good prices early in the season and
finally lost out in the spring.
This spring, he said, they are prof
iting by their experiences and putting
thelr products on the market at reaS-
enable prices.
'tAll of which has tendency &c
lower the prices of the things We
eat" The added.
just how soon the lower prices were
to come Mr.. Armour said he did moi
know.
But We wia welcome Them" he
said, 'for no dealer finds it a pleas
ure to sell stuff at such high prices
as pork has been bringing for several
weeks. But when the packer has to
pay 8, 8. 10 and II cents for live hogs
" fat has he got to say about prices
Mr.. Armour said that if the farmers
would put for their best efforts to
raise good hogs the pork problem IN
this country would soon be solved.

DEVELOPING PECANS

Croker is at the head of company

Forester plantations two years ago
and is sub-diyiding the hand and
planting most of it in pecans. ThOus-

the two plantations above named will
have been converted into one of the
most extensive pecan orchards in
Southwest Georgia.

CrOcker acqUiT1ed AN eyer-fiowing

utilized in a way that would greatly
enhance the value of the entire prop

WHEN A MAN
MAY BEAT HIS WIFE
Conditions That Seem to
Justify Act.

New York. November 1i.-Wife-
beating, according to a decision of the
New York Supreme court is at best
: relative term. In fact, tie dictum
of Justice Crane specifies conditions
nnder which man may strike his wife
without legal disapprobation.
Mrs. Edith Y. Robinson, wife o.
George L. Robinson, a we'll known law

into court a diarly of her husband 5
alleged cruel words and acts. The
opinion of the court follows:
Hard and fast rules of law cannot

nature has given such varying tenn
peraments and dispositions as one

must judge life as it is, not as it ough;

husband into a temper, the resulting
hasty words and violent deeds may not
amount to cruel and inhuman conducr
as the law uses these words, although
men might argue that insult and VIC
lence to a wife are inhuman. Other

seeking relief in court to profit 10y
| her own acts.
IF the defendant, through Jealous
and hasty temper struck the plaintiff
had she caused him no INJURY
by arousing and goading his
jealousy? is the question. Jealousy ana
suspicion have been the cause of the
trouble between tLfs couple If the
defendant quarreled with the wife, she
provoked it. If he used improper Ian
guage, it was in a temper which she
did little to pacify If he struck, she
also had struck him, and on these oc-
casions before he raised "A hand to her

The death of Senator Clay came
with a sense of personal loss to PROB
ably more Georgians than that of any
other prominent man of the state
would have brought. 1t was one OF
the delightful characteristics of the
late senator that he was able to impart
to those he became acquainted with
the feeling that he had direct per-
sonal interest in them and their al
fairs, that it was not merely the cold
calculating interest of the politician
but something deeper and warmer and
more abiding Senator Clay had a
heart, in other words, and was not
afraid or ashamed to let its natural
sentiments flow along natural chan
nels. He attached men to him, even
though they did not agree with him at
all times, by strong bonds of personal
liking that political differences could
not and did not sever. And because Of
this his death will be sincerely re-
GREETED,

There are many Georgians who be-
Heve that the time is now ripe for
Governor Brown to show his gratitude
to South Georgia by honoring one of
it's sons. The vacancy in the United
States Senate might we'll be filled with
a citizen of the lower half of the state.
The ad interim appointment, at least,
might we'll come this way. Governor
Brown owed his election more to
South Georgia than to any other sec
ton. In the last campaign South
Georgia came smilingly up with a
handsome showing for him. 1t is TO be
hoped that ne is not carried away with
the old idea of North Georgia perpet-
ual domination, that he will look with
friendly eyes upon the section that
has shown it's devotion to his inter-
ests, and that he will see his way clear
to appoint some one from this part Of
the state. Let ex4Goy. Terrell wait
and make his fight before the legisla-
ture, but give to South Georgia one
look in on prize of some magnitude.
If Governor Brown does this he will
be stronger than ever in the piney
woods and ON the fiat lands of Georgia.

Tom Dixon evidently has heard OF
the large salaries and the other rich
emoluments that Americus churches
carry with them. His desire to take
a few hundred Thousand dollars away
from the city's popular pastors
though, is an evidence of lack OF
5rotherly feeling among the cloth that
is regrettable. Exactly what the play
wright pastor is going to do with the
money does not appear. Perhaps he
intends to add a few thousand more
acres to the princely domains of
"DixGnvrle." in the Old Dominion.
However, a few wedding fees will
amply compensate for the raid on the
local ministerial bank balances. and if
Tom is made happy thereby surely no
one would begrudge him tie. accretion

The wild turkey of America is the pro-
