time he obeyed the orders of bis su-
periors / will show you that for a
period of twenty-five years Benderna-

James Perry of Gwnnet County, Deprecates Stevens Mix
ing His Name With Stevens Bagwell CONTROVERSY

fore you quit the farming business; we
put you in, you know, in 1904 that you
were at that time working in the inter
est OF the guano trusts instead of the
farmers, in an effort to break the price
of cotton. Awful times then, you know
Cotton down, organizations going on try
ing to check the price; a system of ware
houses was being formed, but you
couldn't see why the guano trusts were
sending out thousands of guano tags in
unbroken packages in cars of guano,
never to be used, as many as seven tags
on one bag oftentimes, farmers paying
for this waste of tags, too, but you just
couldn't stand to hear a man charge the
guano trusts with doing this to break
the price Of cotton SO that they might
get cotton notes for their goods, then let
it be found that less fertilizer, compare
lively, was used and cotton goes up, you
see the point?
Pitiful weaklings they were, just had
of big State like Georgia to defend
them. Not one of them uttered word
of defense, but you were good enough to
do 50 for them.
And again, since you would have me
SAY something, tell Cnen also now you
came to be engaged in the guano bust
ness while Commissioner of Agriculture
at Cornelia, Ca, and how it was that
you could sell it for less than other deal
ers could buy it. You are the only
farmer" (?) in Georgia who has ever
been able to do this. Were you able to
buy (?) it this way before you became
Commissioner of Agriculture? Mr.. Bran
an gives an explanation of this. And by
the way, while it's on my mind, l would
like to inform you that Messrs. Bagwell
and Branan are two of our best citizens.
No two men are held in higher esteem
by the best people of their acquaintance.
No, Mr.. Stevens, [ could have been
asking embarrassing questions before
now, and wouldn't do so now but for

your giving me the dare So tell us why
it was that you discharged Hope Irwin,
one OF your oil inspectors, if it was for
telling his acquaintance to buy l5-cent
Oil when he found that the Is and 20
cent oil were of precisely the same quail
ity. He says you wouldn't give him any
explanation why you discharged him, and
that he presented you with petition
signed by every business man of Mari
eta, save one, asking that you retain
him, and you ignored that as well as to
refuse to return his petition, and that
you have it yet
There are many things you and I
don't agree about. | don't think it is
right for Georgia consumers to be dis
eliminated against in favor of Tennessee;
you do. L would have voted for railroads
to pay tax in each county through which
they run, just like farmers and other
people. but you didn't think it was right
and voted against such bill And if
your position in 1885, while a member
of the Legislature, has been successful
until today, the farmers would have had
hard time paying the millions and mil
lions of dollars of taxes the railroads be-
gan paying after you got out of the
Legislature
You know, "Uncle Obe," the more we
think of the fact that the only thing
your friends can think of, worth saying
about you, is, as they claim, you are
farmer" (?, the more laughable their
position becomes. Why don't they talk
about your record as Commissioner of
Agriculture and Railroad Commissioner
You have been there long enough to have
made one, and maybe you have

about it. You or. any one else can see

AS final test of the purity of pop,
which he suspected had caused 100
or more cases of a peculiar sickness
among children of the northwest side.
Dr.. George w. Thilo, Jr, of Chicago,
drank four bottles of the carbonated
beverage, and is suffering a severe at
tack of blood poisoning.
E. j. Heiss, a druggist, who tried
the same experiment, also was afflict-
ed in the same way. They notified the
health department and the manufac-
tuners of the pop were ordered to
close their plant.
Analysis Of the drink showed that
each bottle, containing about one.
glassful, held in solution enough lead
salts to endangerr the life of a child,
and DR.. Thilo expressed the belief
that it was this poison that has been
puzzling physicians along West Di-.

form of collie not subject to diagnosis.

No, the taxpayers of this State have
made you wealthy man and you would
be better off looking after your large.
property accommodations. Continue to-
spend the summer at your summer home
mid the ripping waters and gentle
breezes of North Georgia and when tired
OF this you can find pleasure viewing
your large estates in the mild climate
of South Georgia during the winter. The
splendid real estate men of Atlanta will
look after your large holdings there
while you are away during the summer
and winter J. A. PERRY.
