YELLOW STREAK IN SHERIFFS
FEAR OF LOSING VOTES KEEPS
THEM FROM DOING DUTY.
Gov. Brown Tells Them They Should
Perform Their Sworn Duty Before
Calling on Him for Troops.

Gov. Brown Tells Them They Should
Perform Their Sworn Duty Before
Calling on Him for Troops.
ATLANTA.-The fear that If they
take a decided action in the enforce
ment of the law they will lose votes
when they run for reelection was de-
clared by Governor Brown Tuesday
morning to be responsible in the ma
iority of instances for request OF
troops to control local situations.
Appealed to by the citizens OF
Greene county TODAY for instructions
to the civil authorities which might
lead to a restoration of order and OF
service by the Georgia railroad Gov
ernor Brown sent the following re-
ply:
Under the constitution and laws
of Georgia officers in every county
in the state are not only empowered
hut are under oath to protect lie
and property and to maintain peace.
After they have exhausted the pro-
cesses of law which their oath re-
ouires of them, if they then notify
the executive that the situation is be-
vond their control he is then and not
until then authorized and empowered
tn send the military and other force
into a county to enforce the law ana
to protect life and property me
sheriff of Greene county is empower
ed under the law to deputize if need
he every citizen in Greene county
TO assist him in protecting the peace.
His oath really requires that ne 40
this if conditions so demand.
A Clarion Call to Duty.
The governor has shown that ne
nossesses a rare kind of courage ana
is not afraid to call out all the re-
serve forces of the state to preserve
peace and quiet, as he did at Augusta
and Cumming. But he resents the
fact that sheriffs are laying down on
their Jobs and are throwing part Oh
their burden on him and on the boys
of the state militia.
'sSheriffs who have backbones or
Jelly instead of hog bone make the
task of preserving the peace and or
der of the state most difficult one,
said Governor Brown. His interview
is clarion call to the men OF cour-
age who hold the Offices of sheriH TO
do their duty.
Although ordinarily peaceIuI
and uncommonly quiet man the gov
ernor has been reused to disgust and
resentment by such conduct. Men
holding the Office of sheriff have
duty to perform which is as binding
upon them as his is upon him, said
Governor Brown, and when such an
official shows he is trucking to the
vote of the lawless element OF the
community the law-abiding should
drive him from office.
II cannot express too strongly my
condemnation of this practice. Sher-
ifs are charged under the law with
maintaining peace and order in their
counties, and men of courage will do
it and not weakly claim the protec-
tion of the state militia on every
possible pretext.
where it is known in the eommu-
nity that the sheriff is man OF
courage the lawless are not. inclined
! to take such liberties. When sher-
if has the backbone of a jelly fsh,
however. they are more reckless and
do things they would otherwise not
dream of doing"

the Line of March, Bibles be"
ing a Distinctive Part.
PHILADELPHIA, Penn.-Sunday
was marked by another unique pa
rade in this city, that of the Sunday
school children of the Protestant
churches, when more than 10000
children, recruited from practically
all of the 700 Protestant churches
in the city paraded in fifteen
sections of professions and held as
nanv rallies. at which the principal
order of exercise was the impartlng
of instruction from Biblical texts by
specialists in religious study Many
features. distinctive in each case 10
the district in which the parade was
formed. marked the lines of march.
Notable among them were the group
ed bodies of negro children from Ell
manuel church in the demonstration
of the second and the fourth DIS
tricts, the trained nurses from the
Samaritan hospital in the parade OF
districts one and three, and the dis
NAV by the Bible Union students in
the parade of the twelfth district
representing Tioga and Nicetown'
The colored boys and girls, very
small percentage of the great process
sion. marched behind banners which
bade them Gear not, little flock,
and their dress was particularly
striking, composed of bright yellow
and red in most cases. The Bible
Union students had a unique float
representing their motto, Helping
the little ones" 1t consisted of
large band wagon, drawn by the
members of the union, while in 1t
were seated the children of the era
die roll and beginners departments
of the Sunday schools in line.
Bibles were distinctly a part of
every procession. Supported on car
riers draped with American flags
and carried by white-robed girls
with Boy Scout guards of honor they
were carried from the churches to
the rallying places, where they were
placed before the speakers stands.
In several instances whole sections
of the parades were furnished with
copies of the Holy Word.

MERRY MIDDLE IN ATLANTA
CANDIDATE CHAMBERS ATTACK
ED MEN AND RELIGION MOVE.
Internal Strife Among His Opponents
Sends Woodward Stock Up. Can't
Find Chambers Money.


ATLANTA.-Th Atlanta pulpit
and the Men and Religion Forward
Movement have had their cordial re-
lationship split asunder on the rock
of local politics.
The Men and Religion Forward
Movement was launched from the
Atlanta pulpits. It's stand in the
present mayoralty race is today re-
pudiated by most of the ministers,
The Men and Religion bulletins,
published as advertisements nave
been demanding that the two candl-
dates. Chambers and Woodward, eK-
press themselves on the question OF
Chief Beavers action in closing up
the tenderloin The bulletins have
particularly tried to force Aidlne
Chambers to make definite promise
to back up Chief Beavers, carrying
the tacit promise that if he does he
will get the church peoples sup
port.
AIdine Chambers issued card
Sunday morning in which he declar-
ed the Men and Religion Movement
was behind Woodward, who was de-
feated in 'decency" campaign sew
eral years ago by Robert Maddox.
Chambers also declared his indie
pendence and caustically informed
the Men and Religion leaders they
were not Atlanta's political bosses.
The preachers had stormy meet
ing at which they condemned as ill
advised the bulletins which have
been written by Marion Jackson and
John J. Eagan OF the Men and Relig-
ion Movement. Some of the minis
tiers defended the movement, but the
most of them thought it bad policy
The majority of the ministers are OF
the opinion that the church people
ought to support Chambers against
Woodward regardless of what pledg-
es either may or may not make. The
ministers are not agreed on this,
however, and they had some heated
debate on the subject. Marion jack
son mad a speech defending the bull
letins.
Woodward stock is said to be
mounting day by day, and even his
opponents are quietly admitting that
it will be practically impossible to
defeat him
As a matter of fact, very nearly
every move made by the opposition
to him has resulted in adding
strength to the foxy old veteran. Bet
ting men are usually the wisest
bunch in such affairs, and they are
backing Woodward far 2 winner next
Tuesday for all they can get up, but
find it difficult to place money.
fntimations have been dropped by
an element opposed to Woodward of
a third candidate, but there is hardly
any probability of that happening.
And it is a pretty safe bet that
unless there is a change in senti-
ment by next Tuesday James G..
Woodward will be the next mayor of
Atlanta.

TAFT WILL OUT RUN TEDDY
Refs Are Offered That President Will
Get More Votes in Georgia
Than the Bull Moose.

ATLANTA.-Bets are being offer
ed here even money that Mr.. Roose-
velt will not get as many votes in
Georgia as President Taft.
A few weeks ago the opinion was
strong that Colonel Roosevelt would
poll very strong minority vote IN
the November election in Georgia.
but if betting is any indication ms
chances are not regarded as favora-
bly, now as they were before he came
South.
OF course the Bull Moosers never
claimed that they would carry the
state, but now it begins to appear
unlikely that they will get even as
many votes as the regular old line
The regulars are pretty well or
ganiged, and the republican machln-
cry. of which Henry C.. Jackson is
the head, is working to turn out as
good a vote for the president as pos
sible.

DIRTY EGGS.

The follOwin press notice has Just been
issued by the Department of Agriculture
about dirty eggs
while there are few egg producers
who take tie best of care OF their product,
the average farmer considers the eggs pro-
duced on the farm q by-product and
makes very little provision for their care,
aside from gathering them. A laTg. loss
Is caused by dirty eggs, the number being
enormous, and according to the estimate
OF Secretary Wilson OF the Department of
Agriculture this money loss TO the farm
ers in the United States am uniting 10
about s.. 900, 600 annually.
This loss is very largely brought about
by not gathering the eggs often euough.
Ia wet weather more dirty eggs are found
than at any other time. This is caused
ty the fact that the hen 3 feet sre often
covered with mud OF other filth and in
going on the nest 10 lay she soils the eggs
already in the nest.

many Of the others become smeared with

brought about by allowing the broody
hens to use the same nests with the LAYERS.
On farm where one Rest TO every four
hens is provided and the nests are kept
clean and well bedded, it is found that
very few dirty eggs are produced.
AFTER gathering the eggs, care should
be taken not to put them where they will

Texas, and especially Dallas, is
delighted that Mother National is
to be our guest next March. Our
beloved southlPnd will not be quite
50 attractive in its verdant growth at
this time as it will be little later in
! the season, but our welcome and our

Just as sincere.
You will be greeted at this time

Of 100, 900 inhabitants. 1t has beau
tiful churches, splendid schools, and
magnificent homes. The ground for
our great Methodist University, the

broken. Many railroads enter our
city and give US quick and comfort
able service into all sections of our
immense state. We are connected /
with our sister city, Fort Worth, by
both steam and electric cars. A
delightful ride Of one hour will land /
the delegate to the National Congress !

are to be entertained by the mothers /
clubs OF that city for one day and /
one evening session.
Our Texas branch of the National [
Congress of Mothers is a big. over

ing a well-orsanized body, and are
taking up many lines Of work for
the child. We are planning and
hoping for great things in the future.
You can help Us to realize those
hopes and mature those plans. We
have organized a Child Welfare Con
ference We have held a Child We
fare Exhibit. As a result Of our ei-
forts our entire state is enthusiastic
and awake to the needs OF childhood.
The work of crystalizing this interest
and enthusiasm into practical and /
concrete action toward the better
ment Of existing conditions is the
labor now before Us.
The mothers Of the state ar al
ready busy putting their house in
order, looking to the entertainment
Of the National Congress of Mothers. /
We are looking for YOU, and our
hearts are warm with that strong
bond Of mother-loye which makes
us all akin.
We want the Texas meeting to be
the greatest meeting ever held by
he National Congress of Mothers,
md we shall not be satisfied with

wo states, and tue larger the dele
yation the happier we will be.
