JOINT DEBATES.

The following from the Savannah
Press is of interest and is along line
long advocated by The News.
Those who have reported the point
debates in the 10th district at Lin
colnton, Jefferson and Warrenton
Georgia, declare that the average
listener cares little for serious dis
cussion of the tariff, the ship subsidy
bill, postal savings banks, or the par
GELS pest, but he is all enthusiasm and
attention when one candidate points
his finger at the other in ridicude, or
calls him demagogue or makes any
personal thrust or attack, or filings
detinance. So it was in Warrenton,
When the candidates seriously dis
cussed their position on public ques-
tons interest Jagged, but when Eve
jumped on Hardwick, or Evans jump
ed on Eve, or Hardwick ridiculed
either of the others, enthusiasm was
unbounded and laughter and APP
plause filled the court room. And it
didn't make much difference who was
being lambasted, or who was doing
the lambasting. The crowd enjoyed
the fireworks without caring much
which candidate was setting them off,
CT which was the target.

A stenographer Is theoretically IA

discretion and ability to guard the Sc

such a position. While it is true that

and applauded him to the echo.
The truth of the matter is the joint
debate is sort of prize fight. The
crowd turns out, not TO be educated,
but to be entertained. People read
the papers, and read the records for
themselves. They can't be fooled by
mere clap trap or demagogery. Still
there is something to see at a joint
debate. How man COMFORTS him
self under fire; how he conducts him
self at the debate; how quickly and
accurately he is able to think on his
feet. These matters may determine
the measure of mans equipment

THE ATLANTA SPIRIT.

There are certain cities in Georgia
whose press and people are prone to
cast arrows of derision at the famous
Atlanta spirit" Well, they need not
bother about it, and hey had best en-
gender some of that same sentiment
in their own affairs, for it is beyond
doubt the best asset that Atlanta pos
sesses today. We venture the bold
statement that, if the fact could be
established it could be shown that the
Atlanta spirit" translated into it's
true meaning of work for Atlanta, has
brought that city better results than
any other or all other agencies COM
bined. There is nothing in the world
that impresses one as much as does
the spirit of progress, of push, of ell
ergy and never ceasing, always in
creasing enterprise and activity and
Atlanta possesses these to a marked
degree.
Discussing the same subject few
days ago, the esteemed and always
conservative Augusta Herald says:
However much Atlanta spirit
may be used as a subject for joke,
everybody admires it, and it gets re-
suits. 1t is in evidence all the time,
and it is this which has made Allan
ia the largest city in the state, with
out being possessed of one single nat
ural advantage.
How the Atlanta spirit works is il
Illustrated by the census work. In At
lanta, as in all other Southern cities,
the census taking has been faulty. 1t
has been incomplete. Incompetent po-
litical appointees in many cases were
not equal to the tack, and as a conse-
quence numbers of names remained
That this is a fact is recognized in
almost every Southern city, and it is
admitted by the census officials in
delegating men to go over the ground
again in several cities. These men
have from three to five days in which
to canvass the city as best they can,
= hn f&cf
count.
Such urgent presentations were
made by Atlanta that the census bu-
reau officials authorized the employ
ment of twenty men in Atlanta to
hunt up names missed in the count.
But the Atlanta spirit was not salts
fed with that. Unaided these men
could do but little in the few days al
lowed them. But the people of the
city constituted themselves into
regular information bureau for these
experts, and put them on the tracks
VI ucItnYuCAlS' Anu tnChly
biles were placed at their disposal,
that without an instant's delay every
name presented to them, or which it
was suspected had been missed in the
count, could be investigated. Aid so
it will be that Atlanta will come very
near having justice done her i'll tie
census figures. in having all Ter peo-
pie included IL the court
This is her right, as it is the right
of other cities. If other cities are
less fortunate than Atlanta in having
justice done them in the census re
ports it is because they failed to make
as strenuous efforts to get the people
counted as did Atlanta"

INDEPENDENTS FAVOR
OUTPUT CURTAILMENT
Agency Looks to Future Welfare
of Oil Industry at Ex-
ecutive Session

The present condition of the oil busi-
ness and what can be done to improve
it was the large general subject dis
cussed by the directors of the Inde-
pendent Oil Producers agency at an
executive session at Bakersfield on
Wednesday. Briefly stated, the oil
market is suffering from q continued
overproduction, with many strings of
tools running in the state and ten
dency OF some of the agency's COM
petitors to slash prices and generally
to disturb the orderly development of
the market.
Plans for remedying this, proposed
and favorably discussed at the meet
ing, were as follows:
The making of an arrangement
whereby the agency will rent the stor-
age it may need for a period of ten
years and on the basis of a certain
fixed amount actually used; the build
ing of storage by the agency members
on their own leases sufficient to hold
their production for three months; the
building of a pipe line from Kern
county fields to Los Angeles in order to
facilitate delivery to the consumers at
that point; a prorata curtailment of
production by the agency members; a
resolution was passed favoring ac-
tion by the federal government that
will permit operators on public oil
lands to stop work of all kind for
period of one year without losing or
impairing their rights as "locators in
good faith" The president of the
agency was authorized to appoint a
committee to conduct a campaign for
bringing into the agency independent
companies not now affiliated with it.
Another meeting will be held at Coal
inga on the second Wednesday in jan
uary.

NEWS OF THE MINES AND OIL FIELDS
COPPER BASIN STRIKES
GLANCE AT SIXTY FEET

PARKER, Ariz.. Dec. 9.-What is
claimed to be the richest copper strike
ever made In this region was made u
few days ago on the property of the
Copper Basin Mining company eigh-
teen miles north of Parker, in the
Copper Basin mining district. During
the progress of sinking the shaft Con-
tractor Harvey Hon broke into a four
foot body of copper glance ore at a
depth of so feet. From its appearance
1t will easily run so per cent in the red
metal besides containing some gold
values.
About two weeks ago the ore be-
gan to gradually increase in value
and before the latest strike of copper
glance, 1t was averaging around $40
to the ton. Contractor Hon was in
town the fore part of the week and
brought a number of large specimens
of the latest discovery. He said the
strike was the richest he had ever seen
in his many years experience in the
mining business.
Ore for shipment will be, extract
ed as quickly as possible and sent TO
the smelter. The new strike will place
Copper Basin in the limelight as never

NEW SONORA RAILROAD
WILL OPEN RICH LAND
Grading Is Now in Progress Near
Minas Prietas by British
SmeIter Syndicate

Reports from the southern portion Of
the state are to the effect that 15O men
are at present busily engaged in grad
ing a roadbed for a new railroad which
will traverse the Sonora river from a
point near Ures some distance In a
northerly direction. These reports are
confirmed by Senor Rodolfo Vazquez,
general manager of the Mexican Indus
trial company, 1921 West Jefferson
street.
The work was begun at a town by
the name of Represo, about nine miles
northeast of NIinas Prietas, the ter
mifal of the present narrow gauge
road, Represo being the supply point
for wood which it used as fuel. From
Represo the route will be due north to
a point twelve miles above Ures, where
the valley of the Sonora river is en-
tered. From this point the road will
run north for an indefinite distance,
and it is possible that 1t may enter
Cananea, or reach Arizpe only.
The narrow gauge road which has
been in operation for some years be-
tween Prietas and Torres is being
converted into a standard gauge. This
road was recently obtained by English
capital.
Just who are back of the new road
is rather problemat1cal, although IL Is
reasonable to believe that the same
English syndicate which recently ac-
quired the smelters at Fundicion and
Guaymas and the company which is
financing the road are the same.
A road through that portion of the
state which will be traversed by the
nav railway will reach many mining
camps which contain some rich prop
critics, but on account of the long hauls
necessary to reach a railroad only the
high grade ores can be shipped. With
the new road completed the mining
men will be enabled to sell their ores
in Guaymas or F'undicion and have the
benefit of railroad haulage.

WINERY MEN LOSE SUIT
AGAINST LOCAL DRY LAW
Test Case of Vineyardists to

Will Be Appealed

SAN BERNARDINo. Dec. 9.--The first step
in the fight of the winery interests Of South
ern California, which back OF the suit,
to secure Il decision making it legal for the
sale of winery products in spite OF town pro-
hibtion ordinance ended disastrously to
the wine men today when Judge Oster and
Judge Dchy Of lnyo county, sitting en- banc,
denied the petition for habeas corpus OF
Peter Tisnerat of Chino, arrested for viola
tion of the anti-saloon ordinance of that

test by the wine men OF the county,
who are backed by interests all over Southern

Although the decision was against them In

the petition means, technically, that Tis-
nerat must pay his fine or serve time in Jail.
However, he will enjoy his liberty pending
the appeal as he has enjoyed it since the test
case was first inaugurated.
