DAWSON ENTRANT IN
CONGRESSIONAL RACE
Mr.. John R. Mercer Candidate
For Congress
Dawson News

Hon. John r Mercer, of Terrell
county is squarely in the race for con-
gress from the Third district, and mas
issued a short address to the voters
formally making known that fact.
Nj. Mercer was born and reared on
. farm in Webster county, but for
more than thirty years has been a
resident of Dawson and has contrib
uted to the progress and prosperity
OF this city and section to a grea or
degree perhaps than any other o1a
man. Besides his large and varied
business interests long ago he won
recognition as a planter Of progress
i've ideas and modern principles. To
the knowledge Of practical farming
he added the benefits Of scientific
theory and persistent study. 1t is safe
ID say that no man in Georgia has
kept abreast Of agricultural progress
along its various lines to a greater eX-
tent than Mr.. Mercer, and at the same
time demonstrated in his own work
that he is not merely theOrist, but
farmer of practical knowledge and
gratifying results.
Mr.. MERGERS Address.
Following is Mr.. MERGERS an
nouncement to the people of the dis
trict:
ITO the voters Of the Third Con-
gressional District: | have the ambi-
ton to represent the Third District N
congress. AS to my fitness and wortn-
mess, l propose to submit that to the
voters of the district, along with 9th
err gentlemen who may aspire to the
honor, in a democratic primary.
4 am a farmer, was born and
reared on a farm in this district, and
have contributed all that l possibly
could to the advancement of the farm
ing interests OF my section of the
country.
AS a member of congress I would
be controlled largely by the same de-
sires and purposes that have actual
ed me as private citizen in advanc-
ing the farming interests of the state
and country, which ultimately is the
interest of every person, whether
merchant, lawyer, doctor, banker
mechanic or citizens following other
callings.
Il shall be glad to meet the vot-
ers face to face in every county of the
district before the day Of election.
Sincerely,
JOHN R. MERCER"

E|GHT-FOOT CASKET
FOR CAPITAL GIANT
Coffin for John Turner One
of Largest Made BY Bal
timore Concern.

The casket which is to contain the
body Of John Turner, the Washington
giant, who died at the Washington Asy-
lum Hospital, yesterday afternoon, will
be received today from a Baltimore
casket concern, and will be one of the
largest ever made by them.
1t will be eight feet long, two and a
half feet wide, and one and half feet
deep. Owing to it's unusual size no
hearse in the city will be large enough
to carry it.
Turner was feet inches tall, and
weighed more than 300 pounds. Except
for his hands and feet, which were ex-
traordinarily large, he was well proper
toned. AS Is the case with all recorded
giants, he had little vitality, and much
of his time was spent in the hospitals.
Turner was a native of Prince George
county, Md, where his parents still live.
His remarkable growth began at the
age of twelve, and, while his body at
tained gigantic proportions. his brain
never grew larger than that of q child.
When not in the hospital Turner was
employed as a teamster. Never having
learned to read or write and being un-
able to keep his mind on any subject
that required thought for more than q
few minutes, his main amusement was
doing in front of a fire or out in the
sun. His hobby was clothes and 1t is
said he spent most of his earnings for
wearing apparel.

RECTOR PLEADS FOR
CHILD AND ANIMAL
DR.. Pierce Attacks Inhuman
Parents and Practice of
ViViSection.

While the sermons in the churches
throughout the city yesterday were
couched in widely different terms
and treated of entirely different sub
jects, that delivered by the Rev. DIR.
U. G. B. Pierce, chaplain Of the Sem
ate and pastor of the All Souls
Church, the place of worship attended
by President Taft, on The Sins of
Half the World" probably created
more discussion and caused more
talk than any other address in the
city.
In the course of his sermon the
Rev. DR.. Pierce referred in scathing
terms to the evils of Yivisection; to
the modern system of bringing up
children; to the average mans com
placent attitude toward what he
knows and feels to be his duty; and
to the worlds attitude to the poor
and their need Of charity
But 1t was with regard to the wan
ton butchery of animals for the pur-
pose of experiment that the pastor
dwelt most forcibIy. In the course
of his remarks on this subject he
said:
I'VE need go into no Mysteries about
vtytsection. We need not let senti-
ment run away with us, but what
could be more devilish than to cut up
a live animal, unless you are abso-
lutely sure that this sacrifice is
worth while to the world?"

that congress intended that the pow
