A Georgian reporter went to the office of
A. NJ. Brand, chairman of this committee,
who has the power to issue the call. Mr..
Brand was out of his office, but was later
found at the campaign headquarters of Colo

When the reporter called for Mr.. Brand,
Colonel Livingston replied:

Colonel Livingston. "Nr. Brand a0iU not IS

II can assure you of one thing, however,
when the rules are issued they will not be as
ambiguous as the rules of Mr.. Hall. Yes,
sir, ours shall be so simple that wayfaring

ton. II know why Howard is raising such a
row about the rules not being given out early.

roads The territory southwark of Atlanta
will retain two Railroad Commissioners, in
the persons of Messrs. Hill and Gray. The
modesty of the City Of Atlanta is evidenced
by the fact that she has two Commissioners,
Messrs Gambler and Hillyer 1t would
seem, therefore, that the territory northward
of Atlanta IS entitled to representation. Mr..
j. a. Perry, of Lawrenceville, Georgia, is a
man of the highest character, in the full flush

to discharge the duties of the position now

that the people will choose Mr.. Perry instead

WORK a0hich an unfrierad1y Legislature pre-

You lynched McLendon on the pretense
that he voted against reductions in freight
rates from our seaports.
In truth, he had done no more than the
Commission had done twice, already-voted
against special favors, on coffee and iron,
asked by the Atlanta jobbers.
But aside from that, q0hy did your noble
enthusiasm for reduced freight rates stop
a0ith the lynching of McLemdon?
Why did you fail to go ahead AND GIVE
US THOSE REDUCED Rites, YOUR
SELVES? Other Legislatures have done it,
in other States.
To make rates, is one of your recognized
powers. 1t a0as so decided By the Supreme
Court of the United States IN the Aza6amoa

You are known to be-a maj ority
of you-partisans of the Hon. Hoke
Rd0a0d Smith You took it upon your
HS2SSa selves to drag him into the guber-
E21909d material race, (by the hair Of the
head, as it were) after he had positively and
repeatedly said that ''private and personal
reasons forbade him to run. The public I'M
derstands that it was the state of Mrs.
Smiths health which was referred to in the
words above quoted.
Yet you, who did nothing much but lynch
McLendon, during your session last year,
went to Ex-Governor Smith, and told him
that if he did not run he would be accused
of having "cold feet". His newspaper organ
announced that this argument decided it,.
To what did the 'cold feet" argument re-
fer? Necessarily, to his apparent loss of in
terest in the great reform principles OF 1906.
Judge Perry, good man, was already IN the
race, making fight for those principles
But you we're dissatisfied with the Judge
You demanded Hoke You wanted him to
prove to the people that the warm feet OF
1906 we're still warm. For the sake of sui
fering country, it needed to be demonstrated,
beyond shadow of doubt, that Hoke's feet
had not become chilled. It didn't make
blamed bit of difference who else had cold
toes and heels-iust so it could be proved that
they weren't Hoke's.
Now, Gentlemen, q0h0t's the matter a0ith
Your OWN FEET?
Last year, your Senate passed that infa-
NOUS Eminent Domain bill, with but four or
five dissenting voices-and Judge Perry's was
one of them.
You refused to levy an adequate tax on
nonresident corporations, which are pulling
the State of Georgia for millions of dollars,
annually.
You let the lobbyists of the Northern mil
lionaires halt YOU in the matter of the In
come Tax. That Democratic proposition,
which even Grover Cleveland favored and
qo4ich q Democratic Congress put into the
Wilson, German tariff -z0a0-YOU REFUSED
TO SUPPORT.
In fact, you did nothing hardly in 1909,
excepting to lynch McLendon-and you did
SO at the behest of Governor Smith.
And now you pretend to be SO ardentfy at
tached to reform principles, that you feel
it to be patriotic duty to publicly take the
temperature of Hoke Smiths feet. The coun-
try is lost, the great principles" are doomed,
unless Hoke will go before the people and
convincingly demonstrate that a per-fervld
glow animates his feet.
What qOaS 1t that qOe q0h0 supported H0be
Smith IN 1906 promised to do?
First of ALL we were going to have the
Legislature pass an Anti lobby law. But the
Legislature of 1907 was leftover body; and
it was not in sympathy with our reforms.
Therefore, we tried in vain to get an effective
law against lobbying.
So it was with Port Rates. We promised
reductions, but could not redeem the promise.

FARMERS ON T.ARI'T.

The demand for real and effective
tariff reduction is such that it cannot
much longer be delayed. The recent
election returns LETT no doubt that
the leading men in the cities would
not longer stand for the excessive
duties that Increase unduiy the price
Of everything they must buy. The
election returns show that the farm
ers were not as pronounced in voting
for a change as the people living in
the owns. The reason is that they are
now more prosperous than town peo-
pie, the drop in population to the
cities and greater demand for farm
products having helped the armer
and increased the cost of living to
own men. The National Grange in its
session last week declared for a ma
tiOna1 income tax, q parcels post, en-
largement@ Of railroad regulation,

Sidy, n the suggested Central Bank
trust, and explaining the Oranges po-
sition on the tariff, said:
I'm 1909, the Grange condemned
the tariff law as unjust to the farm
erS and in no sense in accord with
the promises of the tariff revision
made by the party responsible Tor its
enactment; the National Grange urges
that in any future revision Of the
| tariff laws the duties upon any article
should never exceed the difference be-
tween the labor cost of producing
| such articles in this country and in
foreign countries. we favor the IN
mediate amendment of the present
tariff act SO as to reduce the excessive
protection now given to many staple
manufactured articles the production
of which is controlled by trusts and
monopoly combinations, and we urge
a material reduction of duty upon al
articles which are sold by manufac.
turers in foreign markets at lower
prices than those charged to TIL
people Of this country

DO NOT BURN THE LEAVES.
They Are Natures Own Fertilizer and
Should Be Turned Over to the Soil.
(Outing.)

Fools burn leaves. leaving for them
selves 8 pinch OF poor ashes but send
ing back into air what was taken from
it by the process OF growth. These
thousands Of tons are not made out or
the earth, but out Of the air and are
intended to be turned over into soil.
IF YOU plant a tree in a tub of dirt and
leave il there until 1t weighs one hun
dred pounds, you will find by weighing
the dirt, that the tree was not made
up Of what was in the tub. but almost
altogether of what it could get from
the air-carbOn and nitrogen for the
most part. with hydrogen q
good share of the liquid part of sap.
The elements OF the soil that are not
in the air are deep down under the
surface OF the soil, or incorporated in
the rocks. The most important are
potash from ashes, weed waste, soap
suds, and there are a few soils that in
their natural state are entirely def
cient in this element. The timber soil
Of our corn belt contain 0 two
thousand pounds of phosphorus an
acre. Raising crops that use up
these elements steadily lessons the
possibility Of growing n crops at all.
We have got to find them in the soil;
II we use them up We have got to re-
place them.
Agriculture should be renamed aeri-
culture, because we are really taking
from the air the larger part Of our
annual crops. What we must know is
how to dc this most readily. Our
fathers knew tina they muse use ma
