Wilson And Smith.

Atlanta, July 29-Woodrow Viii
son was hailed as the hope of the
nation" and the splendid leader of
the democratic party by Represen-
tative Hooper Alexander in the
house of representatives yesterday,
nominating the former Princeton
head for president of the United
States, and Hooper's friends are
poking a little good natured fun at
him by recalling to his mind that it
hasn't been quite year since he
nominated Hoke Smith for presi-
dent of the United States, in the
state convention here, and that nom
mating two men in year for that
high office is going some" even for
Hooper.

Important Educational Laws

Atlanta, July 29.-The general
education bill, which the house is
now considering section by section,
is the most important educational
reform undertaken in recent years
in Georgia. If its main provisions
become laW-and it seems they will
this state will have a splendid
organization, centralized in the
state board of education, whereas
now she has practically no executive
state organization at all. The state
board will have on it not only the
Governor and school commissioner,
but professional educators of proven
executive ability, and its powers
will extend even to the right to
select the courses in all schools, city
and country, which receive support
from the state.
The bill is one prepared, or rather
compiled by the house educational
committee, and combines what were
deemed the best feat of the half
dozen educational measures pre-
sented by various representatives.

Loan Company in Trouble.

The friends of Richard Purvis who
went from Ocilla to Atlanta several
years ago and moved his loan com
pany from Ocilla to the capital, will
watch with interest the develop
ments in a criminal charge that has
been brought against Mr.. Purvis
and his associates.
The charge is that his company
is a lottery, and that he is using the
United States mails to defraud.
Mr. Purvis has from a small be-
einnind established a very large
company that is doing millions OF
dollars of business, and no doubt ne
has been an object of envy on the
part of some of his old-time friends
in this section.
We are not sufficiently informed
to dive an intellig> mt opinion as to
the merits of the case or to predict
the outcome.

Two Big Ones.

Atlanta, July 29.-The idea
that Senator LaFollette and Hoke
Smith will be powerfully al
lied working together for certain
measures and principals advocated
alike by the progressive democrats
and insurgent republicans is
strengthened here by the reported
interview in which Senator La
Toilette commends Governor Smith
for his course in not letting him be
forced to Washington at this mo-
ment when he was not needed.
The fact that there is no question
involved of Hoke Smith or any
other democrat going over to the
republican principles but rather OF
the republican insurgents lending
their aid to measures which are
founded on democratic principles,
causes Georgia democrats to view
as most fortunate that probability
that LaFollette and Smith will
begin their personal acquaintance
ship at Washington under such
friendly auspices.
The two men have known and
admired each other for years.

A Splendid Increase.

The American State Bank, the
Bank around the Corner" on Central
Avenue has been doing things" this
summer as their large increase in
deposits show the past month. On
June 9th, one month ago deposits
in the bank were $33,481.44 which
was considered very good for the
dull season, but on July 9th. just
ONE MONTH later, the bank shows
$47,42122 on deposit or gain in
one month of % per cent.
Considering the dull Midsummer
months" this bank is being con-
graduated on its splendid increase
in deposits. The popularity of the
bank is increasing daily and it is
constantly adding strong men to its
growing list of customers.
There is no secret to the growth
of this bank. 1t is a natural conse-
quence resulting from courtesy, ac-
commodation and appreciation OF
your business. Try us and see
what the reason for our rapid
growth is.
Very respectfully,

Will Investigate After
Legislature Adjourns.

Atlanta, July 29.-Although the
Ault investigating committee for
the department of agriculture has
been appointed by President Staten
and Speaker Holder, indications
are that some time will elapse
before investigation begins. 1t is
said that Commissioner Hudson
and his friends are now ready and
that the sooner it begins the better
they will be pleased, but the mem
bers of the committee feel that with
afternoon sessions coming on they
will have no chance at all to take
it I'D until after the close OF the
legislature, and that then a date
will have TO be fixed by mutual
agreement at whatever time suits
all the members of the committee
best. They can do as they please
about time, for the report is not
to be made until the next leglS'
lature meets. The committee Is
composed of Senators Harris, Gro
martie and Bush. The house com
mittee consists Of Ault, lixon

A Warning to Pecan In
VeStOrS.

The National Nut Growers AS
sociation's committee on Ethics,
while assuring the general public
that the intelligent and industrious
cultivation of the pecan in suit
able territory is profitable and
permanent employment for capital,
feels cosraned to advice that finan-
cial success depends ON the fidelity
and skill of the orchard manage
ment
There are numerous companies
now planting-or proposing to
plant-orchards for investors. In
order to merit public patronage,
they should satisfy inquirers on
the following points:
/. Ability and willingness to
fully comply with the agreements
and contracts into which they are
willing to enter.
2. That the lands and locations
they offer are known to be suitable
to the business,
3. That they have that impor-
tant horticultural and business
ability and experience necessary
to successfully conduct commercial
orchards.
Profitable crops under proper
management cannot be expected
sooner than the eighth year; yields
Of 100 pounds or more per tree at
ten or twelve years are exceptions
rather than the rule; all estimates
based on exceptionally favorable
crops are misleading and can only
produce disappointment; the pecan
is not entirely free from insect
enemies and plant diseases, and
the largest profits can be expected
only under a combination of essen
tial requirements.

Knocks The Fee System.

Atlanta, July 29.-It is believed
that if the Sheppard bill is passed
forcing all officials who receive fees
in Georgia to make itemized ac-
counts of their receipts and expen-
ditures, it will mean the downfall of
the fee system and the substitution
of the salary system in its place.
When the people learn what heavy
fees 90 with some of these Offices
when they learn that officials are
making $4,000 and $4,000 out OF
fees who on a salary basis couldn't
expect to get more than $4,000 or
$4,000 it is believed that the fee
system will be doomed.

ly Massachusetts,, Ohio and Iowa.
have tackled" the evil of intemper-
ance ina way which cannot fail to
meet the appreciation of all fair
minded people. This is nothing
more nor less than to reform those
who have lost self-control in the
use of intoxicants, including the per-
nicious habit-forming drugs. This
mode of dealing directly with these
evils appears so practical and sensi-
bic on TIE face of it that | doubt
whether a dissenting voice will ever
be heard against it. 1t is bound to
meet even the approval of those for
whose special benefitit was devised.
Referring to this matter, the Nash
vile American says:
The State should take charge of
inebriates and drug-fiends just as it
assumes control over the criminal
and insane. 1t should give
the unfortunates treatment in which
work, fresh air, and wholesome food
take the place of jail-cells. The
drunkard should not be bounded by
officials, but the State should stand
ready to save the unfortunate man
before he has become a hopeless
wreck Either at his own request,
or at that of his relatives, officials
should take him before court and
have him sent to a colony where
every opportunity for recovery from
the drink-or-drug habit will be at
forded.
Massachusetts and Iowa are the
two States which now maintain
farm-colonies for alcoholics, but
Cleveland, Ohio, has such colony
(whether a State institution or an
Individual enterprise we are not IN
formeO and it will probably not be
long until many other States will
establish such colonies.
The Massachusetts colony is
about an hours travel from Boston,
and is given over to those who have
lost self-control, but are otherwise
of good character. This colony con-
sists of 100 acres where outdoor en-
pIoyment is given all the patients.
(Thus it can be made self-suStain-
ing. H. W.
ITO all appearances the colony is
a home. No guards watch the pa
tents either within or without the
buildings. All appearance of al penal
institution is Stunned, yet the super
vision is strict enough for all prac-
teal purposes. The Iowa farm is of
a similar character, and these two
States have taken progressive step
for the cure of the inebriate which
may we'll be initiated by other COM
monWealths.
Not only are these institutions
more than self-sustaining through
the labor of the patients, but from
the surplus the families of those
could be supported who depend up
on their work for a living.
