to make no noise, and in a minute
they are out of sight. If baby is
awake he may yell and give the
alarm but if he is asleep away he
goes.
Miss Rubys Drinks and Winks and
mods resulted in sleep. The man with
the paper saw that she slept and
smiled to himself. Then he saw that
the go-cart had disappeared, and he
uttered an exclamation of alarm, and
it was his footsteps that awoke the
girl. She could not have been made
to believe that she had slept
Didn't you have a go-cart here
with baby in it?" questioned the
man.
Mercy, yes!" was the reply.
"Where-where-?"
Il can't tell you. There's been no
body along. The cart must have roll
ed away by itself"
But baby-baby She's been kid
naped!"
81 think not. I think weTl find her
all safe around the turn in the path"
Miss Ruby ran ahead and the man
followed She was so excited that she
didn't notice what sort of a looking
man he was except that he was
young and a gentleman.
She isn't in sight" exclaimed the
girl as she reached the turn
Then we must go on. You see
there is a sharp grade here. We may
find the cart in the bushes
And baby thrown out and killed!
Oh, sir"
There, there! Nothing serious
can have happened. Well find the
cart in minute"
But they didn't. That sneak of a
go-cart had taken the middle of the
path and kept it. 1t had tip-toed
around the turn and then began to
race, 1t made two more turns as if
guided by human hands, and then shot
into broader path to face two hood
lums who were crossing the park
They grabbed for the runaway and
stopped it.
''Hully gee-a kid" chuckled one.
And OATS a thousand bones -e-

Must Be Repudiated at the Polls

asked nor wanted the vote of singi .
county whose people had voted for
somebody else at the ballot box.
Above all things l thought it dang
erous that the liberties and rights OF
the people should be thus jeopardized
by the absolute elimination of minor
ity representation, which is one Of
the basic principles upon which ouE
government is founded.
81 did not dream that any commit
tee would have the effrontery within
so short a time to go back to prin-
oiple which had been so overwhelm-
ingly repudiated yet that is just
what has been done
According tot he committees ord
er. every county in the state must
have its delegates to the state con
vention chosen solely from among
the supporters of the candidate for
president who receives a plurality
vote of the whole state. Thus four
fifths of the country may vote against
one man and the vote of the other
fifth could force those four-ffths to
send delegates supporting a candi
date against whom they had voted. l.
such a principle as this stands, ii
means the elimination of the country
counties of Georgia as a serious fac
tor in the politics of the state. And
it puts it within the power of ten or
dozen city counties of Georgia to
absolutely control the politics of the
state. Fortunately, this can be done
only by the consent of the country
counties themselves, and l am of the
opinion that they will rebuke this
Interference with their liberties and
their constitutional rights, just as
emphatically now as they did four
years ago
1T is a pity that Woodrow Wilson
has been made the instrument for this
attack on the constitutional rights of
the people of the state, and # he has
to pay the penalty by the loss of the
state, which now seems inevitable, he
will have nobody to blame but his
friends.
