The selection by President Wilson
of Hon. VIM. J. Harris, chairman OF

Georgian, who managed the presi-
dents campaign for the delegates
from this state The position is one
of national importance, and that Mr..
Harris will fiji it with credit to him
self and the administration is not
questioned. Congratulations.

The North Carolina hazers who
were tried at Hillsboro a few days
ago got off light. They were charg
Gil with manslaughter, as the hazlng
contributed to the death of their boy
victim. Four months in jail is the
penalty. 1t is purely nominal, put at
all events it carries condemnation,
and will have moral effect. The four
student defendants will hardly pose
as heroes or martyrs at the end o.
their terms. They were of good fam
lilies. and put up a vigorous legal
fight

THAT NEW SOB.

From the cambridge Searchlight,
The Dawson News thinks the talk
of making a new Office in Georgia
for a Jail inspector" is perfectly
useless and foolish. The News wants
to know what are the commissioners
elected for and where are the grand
iuries of the different counties. 1t
would seem a very foolish piece OF
business to appoint man to go over
the entire state to do the work that
a number of men are elected in each
county and paid to attend to.

The Fall of Julian Hawthorne

In the conviction of Julian Haw-
thorne society derives a comforting
assurance of the competency of the
courts and the value of public Opin-
ion in protecting people from the
wiles of swindlers. The dispatches
in the papers tell how the United
States court, up in New York state,
has convicted Hawthorne and three
other prominent men for swind-
ling innocent buyers of stock in bo-
gus Canadian mining scheme and
sentenced them to serve from one to
five years in the federal prison at
Atlanta. Hawthorne and his associ-
ates used the United States mails to
carry out their criminal project.
They appealed to the poverty of some
and the cupidity of others by present
ing a mining scheme that promised
rich benefits at little cost 1t was a
.get-rich-uuick scheme. in a way, for
it promised quick and big returns
on comparatively small investments,
and the United States took notice of
the enterprise.
Julian Hawthorne is a man of
marked literary ability. Most of us
have read his productions in the mag
azines and literary papers the past
decade or so. His repute as an au-
thor and writer was established and
enviable and enabled him to derive
liberal pecuniary rewards, not 10
sneak of distinction in literary cir
cles His conviction challenges the
virtue of the theory Of eugenlcs
which, in plain English is the
theory of good blood, breeding.
We apply it in raising live STOCK by
the selection of pedigreed slres ana
dams and scientists who study soci-
ology declare that by the union OF
strong and upright men and women
strong in mind and morals anc
bodv-sons and daughters OF like
quality should be born. Some writ
ers declaim eloquently and persua
sivelv upon the value OF the theory
Julian was the son of Nathaniel +
Hawthorne, the New England novel
ist-a man of upright life and un
challenged repute-who married
New England girl of an honorabl
and old family, a cultured christia
woman. Thus Julian Hawthorne ha
the advantage, in making his way
life that comes from honorable lii
cage. 1t seems that such a ma
should have been above the temptt
ton TO swindle his fellow men al
women by giving them nothing Il
their money.
1t is a rare, a passing episode
real life. But as stern as is t
example it has its wholesome aspe
in demonstrating that the law
vigilant and capable in punishil
wrong doing and protecting innoce
people from imposture. We all kn'
how easy it seems to convict trlen
less, a penniless and an obscure me-
white or negro, and it is ere
to the United States court that
appears to be competent to deal
81 impartial spirit with offenders
y high as well as low degree.

The Commerce News says: white
peas are selling in Commerce at
$3.50 per bushel. Worse still, they
are shipped from California. Think
of Georgians buying California peas,
and at that outrageous price," But
that is not the worst of it. The
Georgia farmers are not only losing
the big profits made on these peas
at $3.50 per bushel, but are actually
paying $500 to $3.50 a bushel for
peas to plant on their farms Perhaps

Another source of Nitrogen that
could not be washed out of the
soil was one of our adoptions.
We emplyed forms of Phosphor-
ic Acid that would feed the plant
throughout the growth.
There were certain crops that
required an abundance of Potash.
Supplied in one form it would
largely increase the yield. In an
other form it's effects were highly
injurious.
So in each element that fertilizer
makers use We sought to make an
improvement. We sought to cor
rect every fault.
Practical men have brought to
the mixing of A. A. G. Fertilizers
a wealth of experience.
They have studied the needs of
every Southern crop-the peculiar
tiles of every type of soil. Wher-
ever A. A. G. Fertilizers are used
bigger yields of cotton, corn and
tobacco have been the telling effect
of their work.
Men of lesser experience could
never know all of the things these
men have discovered.
DRY MIXED OR HOME MIXED
FERTILIZERS LACK THE PROP
ERTIES OF THESE CHEMICAL
LY MIXED BRANDS. Mere anal
ysis does not show the superior
value of A. A. G. Fertilizer.
For analysis only shows the
amount of plant foods contained.
1t cannot show the forms in which
the plant foods exist.
Fertilizer with Nitrogen in only
a single form would seem the same
from analysis.
The fertilizer business is our on
ly business. The farmers inter-
ests are our interests. Our sales
are dependent upon his crops.

EXPENSE CAUSED BRITISH
TO SHUN PANAMA FAIR
London Press Says Move Has
No Diplomatic Significance.

LONDON. Aug. Am apparently
inspired statement in regard to the
British government participation
in the Panama Pacific exposition in
San Francisco appears today in the
Westminster Gazette. drawn forth by
the caustic comment cabled from
America 1t earnestly ayers that
Great Britain's refusal to participate
has no diplomatic significance and is
based purely on commercial grounds.
The newspaper says:
1--WE do not mix our diplomatic ne
gotiations and our business in the
way suggested. Americans
may be easy in their minds that our
refusal on this occasion has no other
reasons behind it than those of ex-
pense, and the impossibility of get
ting together a worthy collection at a
place so distant as San Francisco.
We hope and expect that any diplo-
matte differences we have with the
American government about the Pa
mama canal will be settled long be-
fore 1915, when the exposition is to be
held"
The Pail Mall Gazette says there
was no occasion for an explosion of
temper" by Americans after the ex-
PLANTATION given by the British Board
of Trade yesterday and continues:
1--WE must confess we learned of the
reluctance of our traders with some
regret. At first sight it betokens lack
of imagination and enterprise"

FOREIGN SAILORS WILL
NOT LOSE EXTRA PAY

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2.-Conster-
nation among foreign-born sailors OF
the American navy who had been
called upon to surrender certain
extra pay" received during their en-
tire enlistment unless they could
prove they were naturali2ed citizens
was ended today by Comptroller of
the Treasury Downey.
The comptroller ordered the money
returned and ruled that the order
should apply only to future pay
mentS.
The trouble arose over a strict in
depreciation by the paymasters of a
treasury decision several months ago
that undoubted proof of naturaliza-
ton must be submitted by foreign
born sailors to entitle them to the
extra pay allowed American citizens.
The paymasters regarded the decision
as retroactive and went through the
enlistment rolls of the men now In
the service, and in all doubtful cases
ordered the men to refund the extra
pay. 1t amounted to several thou
sand dollars in some instances. Secre-
tary Daniels called the situation to
the attention of the comptroller.
