CHANGE WROUGHT BY WEEVIL

According to Mr.. H. M. Cottrell'
Agricultural commissioner OF the
Rock Island railroad lines, the Doll
weevil has largely changed Louis
lana from cotton to corn growing
state. Now the money crop there is
corn. Before the weevil made its
appearance it was cotton. And II
has been found that corn pays bet
ter than cotton did.
What is worth noting, says the
Savannah News, lis that other crops
than cotton have come with corn
The farmers have suddenly touno
out that there are crops their rich
lands will produce that are much
more profitable than cotton ever was
1t took them a good while to nno
it out. but now that they have made
the discovery Louisiana is to be, III
fact is. a state in which diversified
farming fourishes. While the farm
ers in this state are moving IN the
direction of diversified farming slow
" they are making progress, Aho
they will be glad that they have Civ
en- il attention when the boil weeVlI
reaches the state They won't DE
panic stricken, because they under
stand that if they cannot grow cot
ton they can grow corn and hay and
raise stock. But because they are
finding out what they can do by dl'
yersified farming they ought not &c
cease to make preparations for the
coming of the weevil. 1t is pretty
certain that we shall never have SIX
cent cotton again"

As TO SECOND CHOICE.

Having fought and lost some OF
our esteemed Wilson contemporaries
are now undertaking to instruct the
Georgia delegation to Baltimore for
Governor Wilson as second choice.
It is a rare exhibition of cheek, even
for Georgia politicians. The voters
of Georgia have declared at the bal
lot box that Governor Wilson is not
their first choice for president, ana
there is no reason to believe that
were the question of making the New
Jersey man second choice submitted
to them their verdict would be diff
ferent. 1t may be obtuseness, but in
the light of the result on May LIST
we fail to see wherein Governor Viii
son has any sort of a claim upon
Georgias vote, and it 5 safe to say
that those who will be commissioned
by the people to cast it will take
similar view. The people have spo-
ken, and their will shall be supreme.

A LETTER FROM MIR. RIVEs.

Editor of The Dawson News:
The worst phase of law enforce
ment is the enmity of the faction
that is ostensibly for enforcement OF
law. but when a friend or a moneta-
ry consideration is involved will
wink at it's violation and do what
they can to render its enforcement
nil. 1t is not safe, even to save this
gang from the effect of it's own de-
cision, to obey when convenient and
violate under similar circumstances.
A case in point: Some years since a
man stood for the protection of a
criminal against mob law, his crime
being the violation of the seventh
commandment Of the Decalogue, in
which both participants were equally
guilty, and for which crime this law
abiding citizen would as a grand jul
ror have voted for bill against both
or as a traverse juror rendered ver-
dict of guilty. The citizen in ques-
ton believed in Furnishing crime by
due process of law. Later the friends
of this criminal winked at the gross
violation of the law by one of their
number and condemned this citizen
for insisting on a bill against this
other one of their pals. We hear a
great deal of the delay in the law
by the subtleties of criminal law
yers. This is a great evil, but a
greater evil is that spoken of above,
which permeates the laity and is
taught from our fireside both by pre-
cept and example. The pulpit is
great power for good, the daily and
weekly press as great but greater
than both are the truths or lies
taught by the fathers who vote for
men for public office without regard
to their moral fitness, from a trustee
for a rural school to the presidency
of the nation. And yet this is say
ing by your vote, moral character Is
worthless and opportunism is every
thing" I believe in parties and l
believe my party is better than yours
because it is mine, but should a
known contemner of the law be the
nominee self-respect and respect for
law should prevail against partisan
ship. Only by this may such refor-
nation take place as will save us
from anarchy. While I have related
this before it is good enough to re-
peat: Ambassador Bayard said that
the strength of England lay in fear
ing God and keeping His command
ments,'' and that wherever he went
in England-and he went from the
sovereign's palace to the peasants
cottage-at morn and at night God
was recognized and family prayers
were the rule and not the exception.
"a Goddess nation is a lawless ma
tion''-always has been and always
will be. Yours for doing your duty
at all times and leaving the issues
where they belong, with God.

Advantages (?) of Free Delivery.

Moultrie, that fourishing little
city down among the pines, is to
have mail delivery We congratu-
late the enterprising people there
upon this evidence of growth and
prosperity, which is about all there
is to it. There is very little con-
venience in city delivery in place
the size of Moultrie, and the post
age bill will be almost doubled.
Especially will that be true in the
case of our esteemed contemporary,
the Moultrie Observer.-Dawson
News.
Yes, it is a curious postal law thai
permits free delivery of other papers
printed in the country and charges
the local paper on even the portion
of it's m all the city carriers do no
touch. 1t is a queer ruling that per
mits the delivery by carriers of pa
pers and magazines published il
any town or city of the United State'
and does not allow the delivery o.
the local paper.
This is not the only case in whict
the government at Washington ];

per. In recent years there has beer
one step after another towards the
abridgement of the rights and priv
leges of the newspaper. 1t is time
that newspapers were making pro
test that was felt" in the postal de
partment.

QUILL QUESTIONS
(By Cobb Randy.)

The Same Old Story Continued :
While the saint was contemplating
Whittier should his journey BE-
Passed the parson meditating,
Walking lost in reyerie-
Quoth the saint-the parson started
At beholding a stranger there,
Took the hand he saw extended :,
Tell ME, brother, why this care!
And the saint learned from the par
son
That the congregation heard,
But expected preachers only
To BE- doors of the word.
And the saint, who'd been a layman,
Knew what duties had been his.
How could churches hope to prosper
On such One-man policies?

TITANIC IS AT THE BOTTOM.

says AANb AZ OAAJ
enable Conclusion to Reach.
Editor Dawson News: In discuss
ing the final resting place of the IL
tanic the scientists neglected one i'm
portant fact, the incOmpressibility OF
water. Man has not yet devised any
means of pressure sufficient to re-
duce the volume of water to any APP
preciable extent. The specific grav-
ity of any body depends upon the
number of molecules occupying a
given space. Therefore, if water
cannot be compressed the specific
gravity of water will remain practi-
cally the same at any depth.
Air and almost all the gases can
be compressed into a liquid form by
sufficient pressure and the air pOck-
cts in the Titanic would soon be re-
duced to liquid air and the space oc-
cupied almost nil.
Suppose the claims were true that
at some depth the specific gravity of
the water was equal to the specific
gravity of steel then the rocks at the
bottom of the sea, whose specific
gravity is far less than steel, would
rise and float at the level where
their specific gravity is equaled and
the water would go lower down and
more rocks would rise, ad infinitum,
and general chaos would result.
Further, if the steel of the Titanic
would not sink to the bottom how
could a plummet be made to find the
depth of the sea? The only conclu-
sion is that any body whose specific
gravity is much heavier than water
will eventually find it's way to the
bottom of the sea- L. A. DUGGAN
