Debs there is no doubt that there has been de-
cded reversal of sentmentor perhaps it would be
true to say that reversal is taking place. Those who
have been for Taft all the time have taken courage
speak out their preference and who have been cr
ticisng him have apparently decided that they do
wish to leave the Republican party vote for change
of administrative policies. When all is said the most
potent argument in presidential campaign appears to be
the good times argument and it is this which bring
ing the Republican back to deciding to vote fol-
Taft OF course we have observed the change only To-

enough of change to give the Taft for there

GEORGIA FRUITS
 SUFFER BY RAINS

Atlanta. June 12-(special.l-Ma re- ports have reached the state department of agriculture of damaging effect of re- cent rains and cold weather on the fruit. as well as the cotton crop.
 General opinion around the department inclines to the effect that the June cold wave will set cotton back another week in addition to the delay caused by. the bad weather in the early spring. When tho June crop report was issued by the department. 12 per cent of the cotton crop remained to be replanted. There has been little opportunity to get it in the ground, and it is said the latter part of June will still see some cotton planting.
 Fruits. especially canteloupes. are said to have suffered materially from the re- cent severe rains and the cold spell, and some reduction of the crop is now pre- dicted. While the outlook is for a. plenti- full peach year. peaches are not going to be anything like as abundant it Is said at the department, as some have pre- dlcted. It is exceedingly doubtful, it is said. if the shipments will equal those of 1910, Georgia's big peach year. and the prospects are they will be considerably less
