GALLANT OLD NAVARRO,

1t is very easy to admire the vic
tor, but to him who has lost the
fight it is more difficult to accord
the honor which is often his due.
Old General Juan Navarro. with his
big spectacles and his flowing white
side whiskers, must appeal to our
admiration though he was the loser
IN the bitter fight at Juarez, for he
seems to possess a soldierly honor
which would do credit to any nation
ality. He fought in defense of Jua-
rez until further defiance of the in
surrecto soldiers could mean nothing
but useless slaughter, Then he sur
rendered. The rebel soldiers clam
ored for the life of the old man, and
Navarro believed he must be sacri-
feed to their passion. To his cap
tor, General Madero, he said:
These men will kill me, and
probably will do it in some dis
graceful way. If l am to be kill
ed | wish to die like a soldier.
ask you to have me shot"
In Ell Paso General Navarro gave
Madero personally and secretly
escorted the old general to the river
and saw that he got safely into the
United States territory, merely exact
ing his promise that he would re-
turn when it was desired that he
do so.
further evidence of his gallantry and
high sense Of honor. With such
Mexican officers as had broken theii
parole and fed to the American city
he pleaded that they return to Jua
rez and give themselves up. Al
the same time he sent word to Ma
dero that if the latters clemency to-
ward him led to discord among tina
generals officers he would gladly re
turn and accept such fate as Nigh
be decided on for him.
Better things than execution, dis
graceful or otherwise, should avail
such a man and so gallant a foe a
Navarro.

CORN IN TERRELL.

From the Savannah Press.
The best results of the recent corn
contests in Georgia have been at
tanned in the plentiful supply for
home markets and the existence OF
condition seldom attained in the
state when little necessity has arisen
for the shipment Of western grain.
Around Dawson, for instance, not q
oushel of western corn has been
shipped to that section. This is dis
tinctly noticeable, and is quite diff
ferent from the situation which has
been in existence for many years.
Corn prizes created a rivalry and an
encouragement to grow the cereal,
and the benefit is that Georgians are
today selling their grain to Geor-
CLANS and filling the want most &C
ceptably. 1t seems that this stimula-
ton and incentive were all that were
needed. 1t has been an idle ex-
penditure of resources for years to
purchase from western states what
could be raised to great advantage
right here in Georgia. Georgia corn
should necessarily be cheaper to the
Georgian than western corn, and GER
tainly the grain can be made Just as
good. AS matter of fact, there are
few things which Georgia soil will
not cultivate to the highest standard.
All that is needed is an apparent in
centive or awakening to what is pos
sIble, and this has been provided by
the corn contests. 1t is clearly man
ifest that if such a change of condi-
lions applies to the raising of corn
and the satisfaction of the home
market in this commodity the same
conditions will apply to other pro-
auctions. The sooner the Georgia
farmer learns to rely upon his own
crop and the sooner the people Of the
state stand behind the farmer the
more quickly will prices be satisfac-
tory and conditions ideal.

NO EASY JOB.

Being a United States Senator
seems to be one of the most wearing
jobs a man could find and a good
thing for the doctors. If the truth
has been told about it the reason so
many senators have either died or
become invalids is that being a sena-
tor is a deadly occupation.
During the last weeks of the tariff
discussion census of the senate was
made by two of it's members, who re-
ported that over half of the members
were regularly under the care of ply
sicians. The average senator rises
to big responsibilities, important
committee places, ETC., at about
the age when other men are laying
down the most onerous demands on
their time. The burdens grow heav-
Ter as the men become less able cas-
lily to bear them.
But there will continue to be plen-
ty Of comfortably-f old gentle
men, and here in Georgia where the
fire OF patriotism always burns
brightly and at times fercely. some
younger ones, too, applying for the
toga Just the same.

A NEIGHBOR THAT INVESTS.

From the Industrial Index.
A week does not pass that the dis
patches do not tell of substantial in
vestments in South Georgia farm
lands by South Carolinians.
Sometimes it is $4,000, some
times 100000, sometimes $4,000
that is invested in single farm.
Whenever a thrifty citizen of the
Palmetto state really and badly
wants a piece Of fertile farm land
in Georgia he is always able to f.
nance the deal. The majority of
the sales are said to be on a cash
basis.
This is situation that is as in
teresting as it is gratifying, and also
contains food for much thought.
Now, there is nothing strange, in
the first place, in the fact that peo-
pie who know the value of good
land and it's possibilities make large
investments in South Georgia. The
wonder is that these large, fertile
tracts were permitted to remain prac-
tlcaIly idle for so many years and
that the demand that existed for
them was almost purely local.
1t is a splendid thing for South
Carolina people to invest hundreds
OF thousands of dollars in Georgia
lands. But it is rather remarkable
that OF our several neighbors South
Carolina has more appreciation of
our farming possibilities than any of
the rest. 1t has invested far more
in Georgia, in farming way, than
any other state of the union.
VI course there is a reason for
the situation. We are a great be-
lever in this phase of the philosophy
OF the Sage of Battle Creek. Things
don't happen by chance.
l Several years ago one or two
South Georgia land companies were
! enterprising enough to induce a
number of South Carolinians to visit
their section and showed them fine
farms which could then be bought
quite cheaply A number of sales
were made, and the companies, en-.
couraged, brought another party OF
sight-seers. This was the beginninp
OF the present remarkable "South
Carolina movement" Since then II
mas been carefully fostered BY sew.
eral railroad companies.
But even this explanation doesn,t
wholly explain. Why does South
Carolina, of all the states in the un-
ion, invest SO heavily in Georgia
farm lands? It's people have strong
appreciation Of a good thing; but
why is this appreciation not more
general?

TEN REASONS FOR
BUYIWG 1T HOME

(The following, which is going the
rounds of the press, is just as appli-
cable here in Dawson and Terrell
county as anywhere else.)
| First-Your home merchants can
duplicate the prices made by any re-
sponsible concern anywhere on goods
of equal quality, and in the same
quantities and on the same basis of
delivery and payment.
Second-You can examine your
purchases in the home stores and be
assured of satisfaction before in
| vesting your money.
| Third-Your home merchants are
always ready and willing to make
right any error or any defective ar
| ticle purchased.
FOurth-Your home merchants
help support, through direct and in
direct taxation, your schools, your
churches, libraries, and other public
institutions.
Fifth-Your home merchants help
make good local market for every
thing you have to sell, and that mar
ket-more than any other one fac
tor-giveS your land it's present val
ue.
Sixth-Your home merchants are
your good friends, ever ready to ex-
tend helping hand in time of need.
Seventh-If this community is
good enough for you to live in and
make your money in tbs good
enough to spend it in
Eighth-The best citizens in this
community are those who believe in
and practice home patronage. Be
one of the best.
Ninth-The merchants in the dis
tant city give you nothing valuable
that the home merchants cannot give
yOu-and the former cannot and will
not do for you many things the lat
ter do gladly.
Tenth-Every dollar kept in cir
culation in this community helps in
crease property values. Every dol
lar sent out of this community that
could as well be spent here hinders
the wheels of progress and helps to
build up some other community at
your expense

GEoRGIA's JURY SYSTEM.
Mr.. Rives Points Out Some Weak
Places in 1t.

!
Editor Dawson News: On the ju-
rors selected for their intelligence
and probity lies the whole fabric of
our republican system of govern
ment; therefore, the judges of the
superior courts in selecting jury
commissioners should have a care
to put only such men as will not be
swayed by hurting the feelings of
any one, be he kinsman, friend or foe.
have in mind certain grand jury
whose foreman was one of the best
men IN the county, and therefore the
majority OF the jury must have been
good men; yet on that grand jury
were two men, from the same militia
district, one of whom it is pretty
generally understood leads an i'm
moral life and the other one not -
months before the sitting of this
body attempted to raise a mob for
the purpose of lynching a white man
for misdemeanor What wonder
is 1t that two open and fragrant cases
tone adultery and the other bigamy
and incest by people with white
sklns) were passed over, and a ne
gro, whom the traverse jury acquit-
ted, was indicted for rape upon one
of his own color? 1t is such mis-
carriage of justice that brings the
courts into contempt. Now. both of
these unfit jurors are men of prop
erty, and can see just how hard it
was for their neighbor and kinsman
to take them off the jury list. New
ertheless, it ought to be done, and
should any district be left without
representation on the jury Though
there is no danger of this) it had
best be not represented than by such
men.
The above is not a parable, but
the names will be furnished to any,
one with the right to know them.
The remedy lies with the appointing
power, and if the judges of the SUI
perior courts will exercise due dill
gence in selecting jury commission
ers and where terms of men expire
appoint only fit and proper ones in
their stead such things as are enum-
Grated above will not happen. Yours
for upbuilding Georgia by enforce
ment OF law. A. P. RIVES.

WHEAT IN TERRELL.

The announcement by Mr.. J. R.
Mercer through the last issue of The
News that he will erect frst-class
-four mill in Dawson and offer prizes
for the best yields of wheat grown
in Terrell county if the farmers show
sufficient interest has been the sub
ject of much favorable comment. He
has bought 800 bushels of wheat of
the blue stem variety for the pur-
pose of supplying seed.
A few of the farmers of the cOun-
ty have been growing wheat success
fully the past several years, and
there is reason to believe that more
of them would find it profitable to
do so. In Crisp county wheat has
been grown extensively and success
fully this year. A dispatch says the
work of harvesting has been in pro-
gress there for week, and the yields
have far exceeded expectations. One
farmer has gathered SO bushels per
acre, another has a yield OF 40 bush
els per acre, and many others are
gathering from rs to 40 bushels an
acre.
Mr.. Mercer was the first man in
Georgia to offer corn prizes, and in
so doing proved himself a public
benefactor. The result has been a
revolution in the cultivation of corn,
a vast increase in the yields, and
the distinction for Terrell
county Of having the champion corn
grower Of Southwest Georgia.
Let the farmers now turn their
attention more to the cultivation of
wheat and make Terrell, already the
banner cotton and corn county, the
banner wheat county also.

BIRD SLAUGHTER.

billion dollars have been added
to the cost of the higher cost of liv-
ing by the unnecessary slaughter of
birds is the statement made by the
National Association of Audubon So
cietieS, and the statistics of the gov
eminent bear out the assertion. The
| inroads of rodents and insects that
would have been exterminated had
their natural bird foes been protect
ed from feather men, market butch
ers and pot hunters is the cause Of
this great additional burden on the
already oYerburdened plain people
of this country. Losses to cloth and
food products in the last year
amounting to $40 for every person
in the United States are due only to
the uncalled-for destruction of the
feathered insect eaters. To show for
this great loss we have nothing but
the plumage of Easter hats.
Every year that commercial inter-,
ests and sport are allowed to thin
the ranks of the insect-eating species
of birds higher prices must be paid
by the ultimate consumer for neces-
sary staples. This is the conserva-
tive prediction of those who have
studied the situation carefully.
The Georgia legislature is soon to
meet, and that body cannot do the
state better service than to enact
more stringent laws for the protec-
ton of birds.
