JUDGE ROSS PLEASEDCROWD
DISTINGUISHED MACON LAWYER
SPOKE IN DAWSON MONDAY.
Discussed the Issues of the Guberna-
tOFial Campaign and Urged the
Election OF Governor Brown.

UOF1aA campaign ana urged the
Election of Governor Brown.
Judge John P. Ross of Macon
spoke in Dawson Monday in the in
terest of the candidacy of Joseph NJ.
Brown for governor. The speaking
was advertised for 1870 o'clock at
the court house, but as the superior
court, which was in the midst of
murder trial at that hour, did
not adjourn until 1890 for the noon
recess, Judge Ross address necessa-
rily had to be postponed, which in
terfered considerably with the pro-
gramme and had it's effect upon the
size of the audience. When he was
introduced by Rev DR.. j. A. Ivey and
began his speech at l o'clock there
were upwards of a hundred voters
in the room, and enough came in af-
forwards to more than double that
number
Judge Ross took up the record of
Dick Russell first, showing his incon-
sistency on the whiskey question and
reminded the people of the several
different statements he has made in
reference to it. In other words Judge
Russell practiced local application
more than he advocated local option,
said the speaker He criticised Rus
sell further for holding on to his
present job and running for governor
at the same time
He then took up Pope Browns rec
ord as prohibitionist and showed
that he had never been one until now,
and
statement criticising Mr.. Brown as
further proof that he has no just
claim upon prohibitionists for their
support. He quoted statements from
Candidate Brown since his announce
ment for governor in which he said
prohibition is not an Issue in the
campaign.
He paid a high tribute to the
character and craftsmanship of Joe
Brown, AMI showed that practically
all of Joe Browns official acts had
received the endorsement OF Gov
ernor Smith. One of the mos. strik-
ing instances of this was when Smith
appointed Warner Hill to the SUI
preme court bench, Hill having voted
on the port rates question the same
as Joe Brown, whom Smith fired for
so doing.
He declared that Governor Brown
had proved himself worthy of the
votes of the people Of all classes and
factions, and that large numbers of
the men who opposed him in for
mer campaigns have turned to him
as the Worthiest and safest man to
receive their support on December
9TH. Some of them, he pointed out,
are actively on the stump for Gov
ernOr Brown and in this connection
he read extracts from a letter from
Jas. L. Anderson, the campaign man
ager of Governor Smith, in which he
pledged his support to Governor
Brown in this contest and hoped for
his election.
Judge Ross speech was able,
clean and dignified, and he held the
close attention of his hearers. It
was pronounced by many as the best
political speech that had been heard
in Dawson in a long while.

AFTER THE FOX HUNTERS
Prominent Citizens Who Have Been
Running Reynard May Be Prose-
cuted by Game Warden Hill.


Two or three of Dawson's promi-
nent citizens who are fond of the
chase feel more than casual interest
in Georgia's new game law lust at
this time.
Game Warden Eli Hill, who is
wide-awake in seeing that the said
law is properly respected and OBJ
served, learned that these gentlemen
had been fox hunting and is now in
Vestigating the matter of whether
they are subject to prosecution. The
gentlemen in question contend that
as they did not catch or kill the
fox they have not violated the law,
while Warden Hill takes the position
that it is not necessary to catch or
kill game to become a violator. but
the mere act Of hunting subjects a
person to the penalty of the law.
Mr.. Hill referred the matter to
State Warden Mercer, who has writ
ten that in his opinion the fox hunt
ers have violated the law, but advises
that no steps be taken until an opin-
ion can be secured from the attor-
ney-general of the state. If that of
fetal holds that the law has been vio-
lated Mr.. Hill will swear out war
rants against the hunters and prose-
cute them in court.
1t raises an interesting question,
and it is one the hunters and game
wardens throughout the state will
like to have settled.

viaw of interesting the farmers and

The headquarters and general Of

+he president, P. G. Wadsworth vice
nresident, John E. Wadley treasurer.
and G. w. Spratt secretary. The
hoard of directors is composed of
we'll known business men of Macon
and Birmingham.
In a general way the plan, which
was worked out for the corporation
nv its originator, P. G. Wadsworth,
who is an experienced life insurance
actuary, is as follows:
For $500 per bale the corporation
insures the grower who will list
his cotton with it fifteen cents
mound. middling basis. Eleven cents
ner pound, or $55 bale, will be
Maid in cash at the time of delivery,
and script issued for the remaining
four cents or $40. The cotton will
90 into the bonded warehouses of
the company, and the script will be
taken up as soon as the cotton upon
which it's issue is based is sold. The
cotton owner may at any time prior
+o January / 1913, name a date
when he wants to finally fix the price
he is to receive and on the date
that he so names settlement will
be made with him on the basis of
the prevailing quoted price for that
date. In other words, if the price
does not go up the syndicate gets
nothing except 81 for grading, stor-
age, insurance, ETC., and if the price
is adyan through this movement
then the syndicate gets one-quarter
of the advance and the cotton owenr
the other three-quarters. There will
be bonded warehouses in each coun-
ty in which the corporation has
board with a local secretary.
The feasibility and ultimate sue
cess of the project, it is said, are con-
tingent only upon the cooperation
of a sufficient number of the cotton
growers of the South to give the
corporation control of as much as
seven million bales of the next cot
ton crop.
The scheme naturally looks good
to the average farmer, and some of
the largest cotton growers in Terrell
county have signified their intention
to list their next years crop with
the corporation.
A local board has been organized
here, composed of w. J. Mathis, J.
S. LOwrey, w. D. Davidson, w. L.
Pace, w. A. Davidson and Gay
Raines. j. S. Lowrey is chairman of
the board, and Gay Raines secretary.
