WHERE THE BLAME LIES.

In Brooklyn, Mass, Miss Mary F.
Macomber is pastor of a Baptist
church. In a recent sermon the rev.
erend lady declared that women are
to blame for the large number of
divorces. We are far too gallant to
agree with Rev. Miss Macomber in
her severe arraignment Of her sex,
but we must coincide with her as to
the causes to which she attributes
many of such divorces as women are
responsible for, and we append her
list: Late, cold and hurried meals;
too much gossiping and talking; too
many teas, parties and socials; too
many club meetings; too little home
attention; too much domestic ex-
travagance; too many fads, fancies
and follies, and not enough care for
a tidy, comfortable, bright and home
like home
So far so good, Rev. Miss Ma
comber, but we still incline to the
opinion that the offenses of which
husbands are guilty and which lead
to large proportion of matrimonial
shipwrecks are almost if not quite as
numerous and just as destructive as
those with which she charges her sis
tiers. Lack of space prevents us pre-
senting list of these offenses.
However, while her charge is fal
TOO sweeping if Rev. Miss Macomb
er's arraignment of her sex results
in what are already pretty gooC
wives trying to be a little better i
is certain that some already prett,
good husbands will show a marked
improvement, and the total of human
happiness will be increased by s.
much.

Campaign Comments
Deserves Endorsement.

From the Macon Telegraph.
Governor Browns administration
was faultless They do not attack it
from any quarter. He was defeated
for a second term by a few thousand
votes. He had no money for his
campaign except that drawn from his
own purse, and he was not a rich
man. He was confronted by a large
campaign fund on the other hand
Georgia owes to this brave, clean
and able man an Endorsement of his
administration.
A Georgian, himself a man of in
tellectual parts, said to a small COM
pany of friends the other day: Il
regard Joe Brown as one of the five
brightest minds in Georgia." An
other added: HE is about the
cleanest man l have ever known in
politics.
These are the estimates of the
man after the scandalOus assaults
made upon him during his first race,
and after he served one term as gov
ernor.
The Telegraph has no word of per-
sonal criticism Of either of his oppo-
nents. Many good things can be said
of both. But we earnestly believe
that Georgia owes it to Governor
Brown to give him the Endorsement
of a second term, an endorsement
which he was denied last year by a
combination of circumstances which
were very unusual, to say the least

LAW ENFORCEMENT.

| There is a growing tendency on the
part of the public to disregard the
law, of which the unbeHever can be
convinced by a closer observation Of
the trend of events. On this subject
| the Commerce Observer has a timely
and forceful editorial. Some peo-
!ple," says our contemporary, have
an idea that it is only the vicious
class of the white people and negroes
who are guilty of violations; but
this is a mistake. While the crimi-
nal violations are principally among
this class there is a decided tendency
among the general public to violate,
in letter particularly, the common
civil laws. The evil of this practice is
that it influences others to commit
more serious violations and tends to
encourage all laws to be trampled
upon to a dangerous extent.
"One fact stands out plain, and
that is the public does not obey
the laws properly, and, further, the
court officials and others whose duty
it is to enforce the laws do not re
ceive the support and encouragement
of the general public.
why denounce judges and solic-
itors and mayor for not enforcing
the laws when they do not receive
the proper support? No law is 60
ing to be obeyed that is not backed
by public sentiment; but if it is a
law it should be enforced.
Men higher up and men in the
middle walks of life must be hailed
into court and made to feel their re-
if we are to have peace,
order and good government. Every
citizen must feel that he is individu-
ally responsible for good govern
ment, and when this healthy senti-
ment is cultivated the nation will
prosper more abundantly. There is
too much negligence in this import
ant matter and the people, the pub
lie, are Largely responsible for the
trend of events in the direction to-
ward common disregard for all our
a We -

HALL AND THE AMENDMENTS.
From the Savannah News.

From the Savannah News.
Representative Joe Hill Hall is
making good his threat in the legis-
latUre that he would do all in his
power to defeat the constitutional
amendments that are to be voted on
at the approaching gubernatorial
election. One of them gives the
governor power to borrow 100000
instead of 100000, as at present,
and the other requires railroad cor
porations to pay their taxes in Sep
TENDER instead of December. In Mr..
Halls opinion these amendments
would result in creating a big float
ing debt. They would encourage, he
thinks, the legislature to continue to
make appropriations larger than the
amount of revenue.
There is something in the position
taken by Mr.. Hall. 1t is a fact that
as the state has grown richer the
disposition to exceed the revenues in
making appropriations has become
more marked. A big floating debt
means financial trouble. And the
creating of such a debt is an expen-
siVe way Of getting money to meet
obligations created by a legislature
that seems determined to make big
drafts on the future. The interest
on the borrowed money is in itself
quite an item, and it pays no debt
and helps no state institution. 1t
simply pays the cost of unwise Iegis-
lation.
The only safe course to pursue is
to keep the appropriations within the
states income. When that policy is
abandoned financial trouble is sure to
follow If the borrowing limit is in
creased it will not be long before an
other increase in the limit is asked
for, and then it will, in all probable
Ity, be proposed that the constitution
be so amended that the debt can be
increased or the tax rate increased.

BUY AT HOME AND PAY CASH.

FROM the Progressive Farmer.
The latest and most extensive
means of fleeing the farmers, since
lightning rods, sewing machines.
etc, have been worked to the limit
IS the selling of ranges or kitchen
stoves not worth over $50 to $40 at
SIS each.
The good women in the farm
homes need these ranges, and we
would not say one word against their
purchase If they were bought on a
reasonable business basis. The
ranges must be paid for some time,
and since we have done without them
Ior all these years would it not he
the part of wisdom to put off buying
them until the time set for pawn q
LOT them IN these time purchases?
men, WI about half the money.
the same range can be bought and
the balance used for the purchase
OF other cOnVeniences needed as had
ly as the range.
we are simply appealing for com
mon business sense in dealing with
the proposition and protesting
against the payment of too much
for these ranges.
The agents who sell these ranges
are glib takers and slick statesmen.
but even if you really need a range
we advise that you invite Mr.. Agent
to go along to other fields and buv
your range for cash if possible, but
on credit if it is necessity, of your
local merchant and save money for
yourself, while giving your local
merchant and neighbor a reasonable
profit.

The Atlanta Constitution is edito-
rally advocating medical inspection
of the pupils of the public schools
of Georgia. The suggestion is good
one, but to read the editorial one
would suppose it was a new thing.
The Dawson public schools not only
have medical inspection of pupils,
but also have the pupils mouths ex-
amined by dentists. The Dawson
schools, if we are not mistaken, were
the first in the state to have pupils
inspected by physicians.

The good old barnyard chicken
is said to be the best antidote for
the cotton caterpillar. Turn a
drove of hungry chickens in a field
where the caterpillars have Just
begun operations, and all you
need is more chickens,-Tifton
Gazette.
The News saw a verifcation of
the above one day last week on the
farm of a good Terrell county farm
er. The foliage of several acres of
cotton around his house where the
chickens roamed was green and Wig
orous, while some distance away the
plants had been stripped by the
worms. More chickens mean more
cotton, and there can't be too much
of either.

Campaign Manager J. R. Smith
calls on candidate Pope Brown to
give the name of the man who at
tempted to Stephensonize him with
100000 and bring about his es-
pousal of the local option cause. The
Vienna News, which has shown a
leaning to the Pulaski man, also
thinks he owes it to himself to make
known the would-be briber, and
says: UNLESS Pope Brown tells the
name of the party that offered him
the 100000 campaign fund to come
out for local option he will cause a
doubt to arise in the minds of some
of his best friends. Let it come, Mr..
Brown"

Birthday Boquets
a Paper That Does Things.


Lincolnton Journal: Editor E. l..
Rainey is receiving the congratula-
tons of his fellow editors all over
Georgia upon the celebration Of the
thirtieth anniversary of The Daw-
son News. 1t is a great season Of
rejoicing in South Georgia, an extra
ordinary felicitous occasion. Editor
Rainey and The Dawson News do not
show their age. We have all heard
that wine grows better by reason Of
age, and the music of an old violin
surpasses all other harmony save the
song Of the stars. Thirty years have
passed since The Dawson News was
established, but in those thirty years
this newspaper has done things in
South Georgia it would take centuries
to undo. Long live Rainey and The
News! The anniversary issue was
one of the Invest weekly newspapers
we have ever seen.

The second annual fair which will
open in Dawson today will be a
magnificent exposition of the re-
sources and progress of Terrell coun-
ty. A noteworthy thing in connec-
ton with it, too, is that it is almost
solely the result of the enterprise,
energy and brains of a number of
good women of Dawson, who pro-
noted the fair and have looked
after the many details connected
with it. They deserve the thanks
and admiration of all our people, and
The News is glad of this opportunity
to say so.

A Good Custom.

From the COrdele Rambler.
If Joe Brown is elected this time
and we firmly believe that he will
be-the precedent of giving a gov
ernOr his second term will be re-es-
tablished, and this fact alone is
bringing thousands of supporters to
him. Governor Smith got his sec
ond term, although it was little be-
lated; still he got it, and now the
magnanimous voter is generally
ready to help Governor Brown to the
same treatment.
We do not know of any thinking
man who says that Governor Browns
administration was not an able one;
the fight against him was made on
tightly drawn lines, and he was de-
feated.
The custom of giving the governor
an endorsement by electing him to a
second term is a good one, allowing
MIN to retire gracefully, and also has
the advantage of keeping down fac
tlonal politics as a rule for four
years instead of two.
1t appeals to most fair-minded
men, and we hope to see this old
custom re-established.

Cotton the Football of Spectators

FTUM Jne IlTtOn Gazette.
One extreme is apt to follow anoth-
err Last year, when speculation
drove the price of cotton to nearly
20 cents, it was as far above it's act
ual value as it is now below when it
lis hanging around cents The pres
ent price is no doubt the result of
the bear movement, which had it's in

crop, which the spectators have

to the bottom. There will no doubt
be a reaction, but whether in time
to benefit the growers it would be
