MONEY THAT TALKS.

From the New Orleans Picayune.
Bank notes that speak are the lat
est invention OF a bank note expert
as a precaution against forgery. The
invention has been patented in Eng
land and may be some day adopted
when bank officials find themselves
the victims of a desperate gang Of
rogues. The principle of the inven-
ton lies in the application to the
edge of the bank note of a pictorial
record of some specially arranged
phrase. A bank note so provided
when placed in a photograph repro
duces this phrase for the benefit Of
the bank or person disputing the gen
uineness of this note. The way of
the transgressor is being made more
difficult every day, and banking insti-
tutions the world over are working
industriously to protect the public
from fraud. In some Of the smaller
4 banks of Europe their patrons are
protected by the finger-print system,
and before a check is paid the print
on the check must correspond with
the print on file in the bank Bank
notes that speak may be a novelty in
England, but in many other places
/ money has been known to talk fol
e. long time.

THE DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.

The democrats won a notable vic
tory Tuesday, and Governor Wilson
Of New Jersey will be the next pres
ident Under his administration tho
country is expected to enter upon an
era of reform and economy that will
insure the democratic party long
tenure of power,
The campaign was long and bitter,
full Of epithets and charges, so far
as the republicans and progressives
we're concerned. Colonel Roosevelt
made a new record for abusive Ian
Euage in a presidential campaign, a
record he will regret if he has not
already done so.
The democratic campaign under
the leadership of Governor Wilson
vas conducted with dignity, tact and
ability. The paramount issues, the
tariff and the trusts, were presented
clearly and forcefully.
Able and patriotic men have been
chosen president and vice-president,
md The News believes the future is

OUR USEFUL BIRDS.
From the Macon Telegraph.

II OllI Inc IdCOu I6IGSCdpH
The committee on wild life protec
ton, appointed by the Fourth Ma
tional Conservation Congress, with
w. T. HOrnaday, the noted natural
list, as chairman, has issued an appea
to all bird-lovers of the country tc
take up the fight for the protection
of the insect-eating birds. There is
bill now before congress providing
for the protection of migratory in
sectiverOus birds, and an effort will
be made to have it passed the com
ing session.
After calling attention to the an
nual losses to the various crops,
showing that from 10 to 20 per cent
damage is done by the insect pests,
the appeal states that
The codling moth and curculio APP
pie pests costs us about $3.50, 900
year for spraying operations and
$12, 900 a year in shrinkage of
value in the apple crop.
The chinch bug wheat pest some
times costs us 500, 100000 a year.
The cotton boil weevil costs the
cotton planters $2O,O0O,0O0 a year.
The tree insect pests cost the ma
The grasshoppers, cut worms,
army worms, wire worms, leaf-hop-
pers and other insects cost the ma
tiOn annually more millions than can
be counted separately, but the total
for all insect pests is 1920, 900.
How many Americans out of ev-
cry thousand know the immense val
ue of our song birds, swallows, wood
peckers, blackbirds, quail, doves and
nighthawks in destroying countless
millions of noxious insects?
There are seven states in which
the robin is regularly and legally
being killed as game They are
Louisiana, Mississippi, Maryland,
North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia
and Florida.
There are FIVE states that expressly
permit the killing of blackbirds as
'game'-Louisiana, South Carolina,
Tennessee, District of Columbia and
Pennsylvania.
Cranes are killed and eaten in Col
orado, Nevada, Nebraska, North Da-
kota and Oklahoma.
In twenty-siX states doves are reg
ularly killed as game, much to the
loss of the farmers.
The bobwhite quail is a great de-
stroyer of the seeds of noxious
weeds. In our fauna he has no equal.
And yet this fact is ignored. Through
the North and most of the South that
species is mercilessly shot, and as a
result it is fast becoming extinct. In
New York state it will soon be as
extinct as the Mastodon, unless given
a ten-year close season at once. It's
value as a plentiful game bird is
gone.
Georgia has now game law,
which is icing enforced as strictly
as possible, and in a few years it is
probable that further protection VIII
be given such birds as are known
to be useful to the farmer and the
planter.

THE AGENT AND PEDDLER.

The Thomas county grand jury
finds that county year after year
infested with Deddlers of almost ev-
ery description, selling what is claim
ed as medicines, pictures, sewing ma
chimes. furniture, clothing, etc, to
negroes and some white people
charging enormous prices for their
wares and taking mortgages and
notes in payment therefor We find
further that in the fall of the year
these peddlers or their concerns send
around collectors and that the latter
greatly disturb the farm labor by
their proceedings TO the disorganiza-
ton OF business and financial injury
and loss to our citizens. We hold
that this is not a legitimate business,
and recommend that our county COM
missioners increase the license for
such peddlers so as to make it if
possible prohibitive."
, Thomas county is not alone in this
particular Every spring and sum-
mer various smooth-tongued agents
and peddlers Systematically canvass
Terrell county, sell their stuff at ex-
horbitant prices and return in the fall
and make their collections Every
year these people take out of Terrell
county many thousands Of dollars for
which they give no adequate return,
and if those who patronize them
will not for their own welfare re-
fuse to be victimized some plan
should be devised to stop the opera
lions of these leeches in order that
the money they take away may be
kept at home in Legitimate channels
of trade.
They not only do not benefit any
one but themselves, but in many in
stances they Cypress people who are
not able to pay the excessive prices
that are charged for what they sell.

4 GOOD SUGGESTION.

Mr.. ]. M. Scott of cambridge, in
a letter to the Atlanta Journal, sug-
gests Editor Pleasant A. Stovall OF
the Savannah Press for place in
President Wilson's cabinet. Mr..
Scott says that Editor Stovall is "a
big man and a statesman, a man who
has wonderful knowledge of political
economy, a scholar of the old school,
and being a schoolmate and personal
friend of Governor Wilson gives him
eminent prestige, as Governor Will
son knows his ability and supreme
qualifications" All of which The
News cordially endorses. Governor
Wilson had no more loyal and infu-
entail supporter than Mr.. Stovall
and his recognition would be de-
served compliment both to Mr.. Sto-
vail and Georgia.

SPOILED BY NORTHERN WHITES

Jack Johnson, the negro prize
fighter, has announced that he will
90 to Europe and never return to
this coury That suits us exactly,
and it is to be hoped that he will
stick to it.
In this connection it is interesting
that the more decent people of both
races up North are condemning John
son for his degrading and disgusting
conduct.
But Johnson is not entirely to
blame, and that class of white peo-
pie who have helped to make the
negro pug the disgrace that he is

President Taft did not forget his phi

story of how the president looked at
the situation just about that time,
told by friend today:

have said, 'I'll be very glad to ride
down Pennsylvania avenue with. Pres

been so easy if things had been diff

VICTORY is Overwhelming
The Democrats Made Almost Clean
Sweep in Tuesdays Election.

Wilson and Marshall will have al
overwhelming majority in the cleo
toral college, the democrats will have
an increased majority in congress,
and the senate will probably be dem
ocratic are the results of the national
election Tuesday.
For president the democrats car
ried SO states with 442 electoral
votes. Roosevelt carried the states
of Michigan, Minnesota, Pennsylva-
MIA and Washington with 70 votes,
while Taft got only four states, Ida
no, Utah and Vermont with twelve
votes
The democratic majority in con-
gross was increased by approximately
so and the indications are that the
democrats will have half of the SEN
ate if they do not actually control it.
Among the republican celebrities
who were defeated are Uncle Joe"
Cannon, who had been in congress
SO years, and Congressman Nick
Longworth of Ohio, the son-in-law

In Georgia the democratic majori-
ty was largely increased. Wilson re-
ceived 92,SO4 votes, Roosevelt 21,-
LAT and Taft 5,5O5. Roosevelt car
ried four counties and Taft none.
Four years ago Taft carried 81 coun-
ties in Georgia, and had a popular
vote of $4,000. The counties car
ried by Roosevelt are Cherokee,
