In CORdGmniRg Republican
Leaders

Washington, May 81. - Senator
Stone, of Missouri today carried out
his purpose of addressing the senate
on THE Modern Damon and Pythias,
and Correlated Subjects Pertaining to
Current Politics"
"Mr. President" he began, ANY
man having aven meager knowledge
of ancient lore will recall the story
of Damon and 'Pythias, and the story
of David and Jonothan.''
"A few years ago the American
people and the civilized world were
given to understand that here in our
own dear country we had reproduc-
ton of these glorious traditions. We
were led to believe that the combined
spirit of Damon and Jonathan had
come out of their haven of rest and
took refuge in the corpus of Theo-
dore Roosevelt and that the combined
spirits of David and Pythias had ir
like manner come to rest in the ample
bosom of William Howard Taft.
"Thus in happy conjunction, both o
these old stories of ancient lore an,
love were reproduced here in this neg
world of ours for the edification O
the human race"
Senator Stone said it had been
case of two souls with but singl
thought; two hearts that beat as one,
until "the Shiny and poisonous serper
of ambition crawled across the pat
they were walking and divided then
Both had tasted the bitter sweet {
power and liked it overmuch. Bot
were tempted, and both fell.

AMERICUS WILL INVITE THE
HARDWARE DEALERS TO COME
Delegation Left Last Night For Athens Where Present
Years Convention Is In Session forward Edition"
Given to the Dealers

An invitation will today be extend
ed to the hardware dealers of Geor.
gia, who are assembled in annual ses.
sion in Athens, to hold their next con.
vention in Americus. 1t is believed
that the Americus delegation will Sc.
cure the convention for this city.
Last night Mayor J. f. Mathis, ac-
companied by Manager George Gard
ner, of the Windsor Hotel, and Messrs
Joel w. Hightower and C. W. Collins
left for Athens to present the invita-
ton of the Board of Trade and the
City Council of Americus for the con-
vention to come to Americus and hold
its next convention in 1913.
The present session is of three days
duration, having convened yesterday,
SO that the local delegation will ar
rive in Athens in ample time to press
the invitation that is to be extended
by the City of Americus to act as
host for the convention in 1918. There
may be still others to Join the dele
cation before they reach Athens.
1t is estimated that the convention
in case it is secured, will bring l.,
600 visitors to Americus. This will be
an advertisement for the city that will
be well worth while, as the dealers
come from all sections of the state.
Further than this, the city is amply
able to accommodate, with its hotels
and private homes, the full number of
guests that may attend.
At every one of the conventions held
there is a variety of displays of agri-
cultural and other hardware implA-
ments, so that large warehouse and
display space will be needed for these
exhibits that promise to be of unusual
interest and value here, as this is one
of the richest agricultural sections in
the entire state Altogether the COM
ing of the convention will have more
than ordinary significance for the city
and the invitation committee will do

schools enjoying the occasion there to-

posed coming to Americus for its pic

church, including a number of ladies

afternoon to meet the committee from
the Ellaville church in perfecting ar
rangements for the union picnic Fri
