LAW AGAINST TIPPING
CANNOT Be ENFORCED
One May Give Money Just as
He PIeaSeS

Atlanta, February 9.-No law can
prevent a man from giving away his
own money to whomsoever he chooses
that is, not in these free United
States.
Therefore, no law that the legisla-
ture of Georgia might pass could
possibly prevent you from giving a
dime or a quarter to a waiter or
porter, if you chose to do it. And
therefore no law against tipping can
ever be forced into effectiveness
1t is possible that the Georgia les
islature could pass a law prohibiting
the soliciting of tips, on the theory
that asking for tips is begging, but
if such law was passed, what good
would it do? Walters and porters
rarely ever solicit tips. They simply
don't give you as good service imme-
diately they find out that you DOM
Could the law put you in Jail and
fine you fro stopping newsboy on
the street and giving him a nickel on
a cold morning, when the paper re
sold was priced at only two cents?
And it's you that the proposed leg
islation legislates against, if Georgia
lawmakers, as has been announced Ut
the capitol, are going to Introduce a
bill following the lines of that which
was recently passed in Mississippi.
The Mississippi law is trying to make
it a misdemeanor either to receive )r
to give a tip.
Atlantians think it would be a fine
thing to abolish the tipping evil, 30
do away with 1t by some sensible
means, but as for passing a law that
when strictly interpreted would mean
you could be sent to the chaingang

tion if it is ever introduced at all
In the meantime it is prediced tha!
if any effort is made to put the la Y
into effect in Mississippi it will soon

in that event no effort will be made
to pass a similar law in Georgia

GEORGIA LANDS
WONDERFUL FOR
APPLE GROWING
STATEMENT OF Or. POWELL
Who is Expert of Wide KnOWI-
edge and Reputation

Cornelia, Ga, February 9.-That til;
most favorable conditions for grow
ing apples to be found anywhere OBJ
tain in the highlands of the South
east is shown in a statement recently
made by DR.. George T. Powell, of tht
agricultural experts station of New
York, one of the worlds most emf
nent horticultural authorities, who
has just made an examination of q
number of large tracts of land in
N0r;n Georgia, notably in Habersha Il
and Rabun counties, of which he
said
"The conditions necessary for the
culture of the apple must naturally
be found in hilly or somewhat noun
famous sections, and hence the terri
tory over which the finest apples
these possessing the finest quality
may be grown, is somewhat limited.
Northeast Georgia has these condi-
tinns in a most unusual degree. /
found a soil that is a wonderful com
bination of sandy loan, red loan and
Gay, that is fully supplied with hui
mus. 1t is practically virgin soil.
With an elevation of from fifteen
hundred to two thousand feet, climal-
ic conditions of the most desirable
character are assured; such as warn
sunny days, and cool night tempera-
lures, which give to the apple its
highest flavor and it's most beautiful
color. The rolling character of the
land assures perfect natural drainage
while its high elevationrenders l.
eminently free from those fungus dis
eases that in many sections are disas-
trous to the foliage and also to the
fruit of the trees.
With an average annual rainfall
cf 60 inches in the mountainous re-
gions of the Southeast, irrigation need
not be considered With tillage and
cover crops the soil will continue to
improve foracentury to come. Only
capital. intelligence andgoo d busi-
ness methods are required to make
this section wonderful in it's natural
resources, not only in the culture OF
apples, but in general agriculture.
The soil and natural conditions that
make for agricultural wealth are here
on every hand, and all that is needed
to develop them is an influx of desira-
BILE settlers and the use OF the above
qualifications"

TAFT BEGAN
HIS CAMP PAIGN
ON YESTERDAY
TO WIN ON FIRST BALLOT
Political Advisers PrediL1
Easy Time in Convention

Washington, Feb. 9.-The campaign
for the denomination of President TAFT
! began in earnest today when Repre-
sentative Mckinley, of Illinois, who
has assumed charge of the Taft head
quarters in Washington; Senator Mur-
ray Crane, of Massachusetts, and c.
D. Hilles, the presidents secretary,
held a conference. The three spent
several hours together and discuss I'd
the national political situation. The
statement was given out that the Taft
managers were convinced the presi-
dent would have 7S0 votes on the first
ballot in the Chicago convention out
of total of 1876, or 241 more than
the majority necessary for nominal
ton
MIR. Mckinley began work early and
planned to see many of the party
leaders now in Washington. Quar-
ters for the Taft boomers have not
! been secured, but within few days
Mr. Mckinley expects to open Offices.
Although republican leaders said to-
day that it was too early to talk about
the plans of the campaign, many
friends of Mr.. Mckinley were of the
opinion that if President Tatt is re-
nominated, Mr. Mckinley would be his
choice TO chairman of the republican
national committee. Mr. Mckinley
would probably be acceptable to all
the old line party leaders. Some of
these leaders have objected to Post
master General Hitchcock and Secre-
tary to the President Hilles, both
prominently mentioned heretofore for
national chairman

COUNTY POLITICS RESEMBLE
VERY MUCH A CHINESE PUZZLE
Failure Of Those Who We're Slated to Announce For er
tain Positions Has Puzzled the Political DOpGsGrs

Very much like Chinese puzzle is
the local political situation to the
political dopesters who have been pre-
dieting what would turn up in the way
of announcements for positions to be
tlled at the coming primary.
The anomalous situation of only one
candidate in the race for the position
of judge of the City court is one that
is very unusual, to say the least. 1t
has been persistently rumored that
there would be others to announce for
this pisition, but so far no other can
didates have materialized.
In the matter of candidates for
county commissioner there has also
been considerable lethargy. In today's
issue of The Times-Recorder will be
found the announcement of Mr.. H. J.
Webb for county commissioner, which
makes the second announcement for
the positions to be filled
1t was learned last night that MFR.
A. F. Hodges, one of the three county
commissioners whose term expires.
would not likely be candidate for
reelection. While it was not definite
ly stated that Mr.. Hodges would not
be in the race, the inference was that
the probability of his entering the
race was very slight,
From this it would seem that there
is actually to be dearth of candidates
to offer for this particular position. 1t
would seem, in fact, from present con-
ditions that the place is actually to
go begging and that the first man
who offers is to be elected from the
sheer lack of opposition This is
rather strange commentary on the
strange commentary on the sem
timent that prevails in the county
with reference to the position of coun-
ty commissioner and tends to show
that the place is getting to be II
thankless job on account of the strong
divergence CT sentiment that prevails
with reference TO the eligibility OF
men who offer for the place
Further announcements with re-
gard to candidates for county com
missioner will be awaited with inter
est, as there seems now to be such q
lull as regards announcements for
this position that it may be some time
before another announcement is made.
1t is believed that the lineup in the
race for solicitor of the City court is
practically complete now 1t was RI
mored that there might be third can
didate in the race, but it seems now
that the contest will be fought out
sharply and with determination by
Messrs. Childers and Nisbet, the two
candidates who have already announc-
ed for that place

WORK
MOST HELPFUL
PrGSbytGrianS Active in the
Movement

Among the clergymen from this sec
ton of the state in attendance upon
the General Convention of the Lay
mems Missionary Movement of the
Southern Presbyterian church whicn
IS in session at this time in Chatta-
nooga is Rev j. w Stokes, OF
Americus, who left recently to at
tend that important meeting.
The attendance at this session OF
the convention is unusually large and
the work accomplished up to date as
well as that held in reserve for fu-
ture consideration, is varied and i'm
portant. The object of the Laymen's
movement, to spread the influence of
missions abroad among the regular
members of the church, is too well
known now since its inauguration sew
eral years ago to need more than
passing comment
Each of the larger and more infiu-
entail denominations have taken up
the work to make the Laymen's move-
ment a success, and the work that has
been accomplished by the Presbyte-
rian church, according to the reports
received from that quarter are, in
deed, gratifying. The Chattanooga
convention is by far the largest and
me st helpful of these conventions thai
have ever been held
Mr.. Stokes will return to Americu,
today from the Chattanooga meeting
and will occupy the pulpit at tn
I1esbyterian church tomorrow as us
ual. Mrs. Stokes and little daughts
are also out of town, having gon,
with Mr.. Stokes to Atlanta to pay
visit to relatives at Lithonia.
