CHAMP ENLIGHTENs THE HOUSE

Speaker Champ Clark startled the
house during the consideration of
the conference report on the Sher-
wood service pension bill, according
to the Washington correspondent of
the Boston Transcript; by saying
from the chair:
81 have it, ali unde, that President
Taft will sign this bill if we get it to
him today"
The bill was agreed to and hurried
to the white house. Then friends
crowded around Mr.. Clark.

demanded Representative Vicfor
Murdockq. 4 know some Latin, but
never heard of that before"
Yes, it's Latin" announced Mr.
Clark. at means outside of the rec

that President Taft is going to leave
the city this afternoon and that he
was waiting to sign this bill If he
does not 400 or 500 aged soldiers
might die before he is back
''It means grapevine in Ozark
language" some one suggested.
Exactly" said the speaker.
Then the gathering fell into a dis
cussion of Latin quotations, and the
speaker demonstrated that he knew
more about Horace, Cato and Virgil
than all the rest.

Commends Georgia Delegation For
Vote Against Bryan's Resolution.

Comments Georgia Delegation For
Vote Against Bryan's Resolution.
Editor Dawson News: You and
some of the balance differ when you
say the Georgia delegation erred
when they refused to vote for and
voted against Bryan's Morgan-Ryan-
Belmont resolution. 1t was pure pop
py-cock made to catch the unthink-
ing and anarchistic element, to whose
passions Bryan has ever played while
grabbing for all the spOils in sight
and capitalizing his political record
as no other American has ever done,
while doing his best in the same line.
Who lent money and furnished capt.
tai to rehabilitate the South in '65?
New York. In what state was the
war to cOerce the South unpopular to
the extent of resisting cOnscription
for the union army? New York.
What state since the Declaration of
independence in 1875 has in every
crisis stood the South's friend? New
York. Yet, forsooth, to curry favor
with an ignominious failure, a NAL
content and ''marplot" who is too
prejudiced against all things South
ern to vote for the matchless Crisp
or the incorruptible Underwood
Georgia must vote for this spawn
of hell and despised of all honorable
men on earth" Nay, verify, but all
honor to the Georgia delegation for
refusing to follow "Roosevelt's part
ner" against our hereditary friends.
Bryan has placed himself where he
must follow Roosevelt and bolt, or
falsify his word, for he said: Il
will not support any man who is in
debted to New York for his nomina-
tion," and but for New York's help
the convention would never have
nominated Wilson; for had New
York intimated or had used her ad-
mitted influence the convention
would have yet been deadlocked.
And if Roosevelt will just carry this
"old man of the mountain" who has
hung on demOcracy's shoulders and
foredoomed her to defeat since his
connection with her, to the ''shad-
ows,'' where he himself is going, the
South can well forgive him for all
the harm he has done or is cOntem-
plating doing to her. We need Ryan,
Belmont, Morgan and every other
man with money or influence to help
elect Wilson, but we don't need Bry-
an, who has never supported demOc-
racy, state or national, save when
he was the candidate.

1t is said the Baltimore convention
was influenced to nominate Governor
Marshall for vice-president because
he is recognized as conserVa-
tive, and was not entirely acceptable
to Mr.. Bryan, who virtually dictated
the nominee for president. 1t makes
very little difference who or what a
candidate for vice-president is unless
he has barrel and can help the
campaign fund. Otherwise, a candi-
date for vice-president cuts as little
ice as almost any individual that can
be found.

The News believes the decision of
Acknowledgement Thomas S. Fielder
not to enter the race for governor
at this time is a wise one. 1t is too
late, the campaign is too far advanc-
ed, for third candidate to hope to
make a successful campaign. Mr..
Fielder is one of Georgia's brightest
and most popular young men, and
it may be that higher honors are in
store for him at some time not far
distant. We will be glad to aid in
his political advancement whenever
he decides to seek a wider field of
service to the people

The ill-treatment of dumb brutes is

According to the report OF the
census bureau the cotton acreage this
year is smaller than that of the
year before by per cent. This close
Iy conforms to the figures of the
most reliable private authorities and

made by some that there was prac-
tically no decrease. The condition
for Georgia is the lowest of any of
the leading states. This is also in

Why a Third Party Is Needed.

From the Darien Gazette.
There is no question about it, we
do need third party in this country,
and we want to see one started. 1t
is cruel to leave out in the cold all
those ofice-seekers, sore-heads, kick
ers, grouchers, etc, who will not be
tolerated in the two old parties. Yes.
let them start a third party and fight
it out among themselves. We are
sure it will be a great relief to the
old parties.

A lot of young men just out OF
college swooped down on Fort Val
ley the other day in search of en-
ployment, and are now at work in
the peach orchards and the packing
houses. These young men are bound
to succeed, says the Hawkinsville
Dispatch, for they have started in the
right way by going to work at the
first job they could find. Some col
lege graduates, as we'll as many who
have never been to college, make
the mistake of sitting around and
waiting for some easy, big-paying
job, which they never find. It's the
Industrious boy with good habits
who makes the man worth while.

Governor Browns recent message
to the legislature has been generally
regarded as one of the ablest and
most statesmanslike papers ever sent
to that body. Even the Atlanta Jour
nal has spoken in high terms of it.,
and the following from the Laurens
County Herald, one of the most ar
dent anti-Brown papers in the state,
gives a fair idea of how it is viewed
by many of the other opposition pa
pers: Taken altogether the mes
sage is a powerful document, clearly,
simply and concisely written. We
certainly hope it will aid the legisla-
ture in passing laws of real benefit
to the commonwealth"

BY vote of 105 to l the legisla-

a bill allowing women to practice
law.
