The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1912-08-27

The state of Georgia has seen the
dawn of a new political day. The
old order has changed.
Yesterdays voting, which came
as a climax to the most decently con-
Quoted political campaign in recent
years. marked the end of the insane
partisan strife which has been for
nearly a decade a disgrace to the
state.
Both of the old political ma
chimes have gone to wreck and ruin,
and the two hundred thousand yot-
ers of the state OF Georgia should
join in a fervent prayer that never
again may either be pieced together.
The good that existed in both OF
them will live. The narrowness and
the bitterness engendered by the RI
valry between them has died, finally
and none too soon.
John NJ. Slaton was elected gov
ernor not because he was Joe
Brown man. He was elected gov
ernor because his political career
had been clean, intelligent, faithful;
because he made a decent, quiet, sem
sible and yet energetic canvass for
the office.

dates were elected not because they
belonged to one faction or another,
but because they convinced the elect
crate that they were able to serve
their state well.
That seems to have been the test
in Wednesdays primary. 1t is the
only test a free people should apply
to any candidate. 1t means the end
of bossism, the end of partisan strife,
the end of political insanity.
Georgia has had enough Of this
insanity. It's business and social in
terests, it's prestige and its promise
have suffered heavily from it.
But a better day has dawned, and
none should be more happy at the
end of the old and the beginning OF
the new than those distinguished
men who were the head and the
front of the two parties now dead.
1t is the duty Of the voters to pre-
serve this sensible order OF things.
A little independent thinking and
sincere balIoting will smash any
ring that ever was formed.
There is precious little chance for
a boss where the people know how
to think and have the backbone TO
register their thoughts at the polls.

NATIONAL POLITICS NOW.

Now that they are through with
state politics the people of Georgia
will turn their attention more to the
national campaign. Georgia, as a
matter of course, is in the Wilson
column, and no extraordinary cam
paigning here will be necessary. The
practical way in which Georgians
can help is to assist in the campaign
fund, and in presenting not only a
united but enthusiastic support OF
the democratic nominees. Those in
charge of Governor Wilson'S fort
unes are encouraging a campaign
fund popularity subscribed.
The News, along with other dem
ocratic newspapers, will receive pop
ular subscriptions to the national
democratic campaign fund, and for
ward them to the proper party OFF,
GERS. Subscriptions in any sums,
large or small, will be accepted. so
send them along. Don't let Dawson
and Terrell county lag behind in TINS
duty to the party and country.

Cheaper Money for Farmer

From the Atlanta Constitution.
Through cooperative methods ef-
fected By community organization
the farmers of most European coun-
tries now enjoy effective plans
through which they secure money
for making crops at a rate of inter-
est ranging from 2 to 4 per cent,
This is quite a contrast as compared
to the to 10 per cent and some
times more which the American
farmer has to pay, depending upon
his circumstances and the class OF
security he has to offer.
These European farmers establish
their vwn banking institutions for
the purpose Of lending money to
themselves: and they secure all the
money needed to finance their crops
at as low rates as any business man
can get it on the best of gilt-edged
security.
This is one of number of ad-
vanced agricultural movements in
which the European nations are
| leading America; they have scored

/ methods to agriculture, and they

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

A decision of general interest re-
Gently delivered by the supreme
court of the state, especially to that
large bod! Of citizens who employ
farm labor, Is that unfolding
the validity Of Georgia's con-
tract labor law, which makes
it a misdemeanor for a labor
er to secure advances of money or
supplies on promise to do certain
work and then fail or refuse to do it.
Under the Georgia law, however, the
intent to defraud must be clearly
proven.
The supreme court diferentiates
the Georgia law from the Alabama
law, which was recently declared IN
constitutional by the federal courts.
In that state the Alabama law made
it a prima facie evidence OF intent
to defraud if the laborer failed to
o the work after the advances had
been secured.
This decision OF the high court
will help in measure TO contro
labor that is yearly becoming NOR,
trifiing and worthless.
