Mr.. Francis Marion Garrette,
of this city, age Is, sat for the
first time in a barber chair last
Saturday, while Mr.. R. H. Whit
combe Of the Union Barber Shop
proceeded to shave him.
The reader must not infer that
this was the first shave the ell
DERBY gentlemen had ever had.
on the other hand he has had
many shaves and hair-cuts in
his day, but this was the first
time the ceremony was perform
ed for him by full fledged bar
Der. Mr.. Whitcomt e states that
Mr.. Garrette seemed to enjoy
the shave, Notwithstanding Il Q
fact that it required considera.
able arguing on the part of the
old gentlemen's son-in-law to
persuade him to submit to the
act.
Mr.. Garrette is not conscienti-
ously or otherwise opposed to the
tonsorial art as performed at
the usual barber shop but states
that his wife has always shaved
him and cut his hair in a most
satisfactory manner, making it
totally unnecessary for him to
patronize the barber shop.

Ben Hill County
Farmer Victimized
Slick Negro Imposes
On w. A. Mobley


John Dees offered to hire out t Q
Mr.. W. A. Mobley. il
Dees told Mr.. Mobley a stir
ring tale of the four able farm
hands in his family. He said he
owed a turpentine operator at
Fender $50 and if Mobley would
pay the debt for him he would
move with his family TO Mobley's
farm and work several years for
him. Mobley agreed and taking
his team and the money drove
with the negro to Fender, which
is seven miles south of Triton
and over forty miles from Mob
ley's farm.
It was night when the two
reached Triton and the negro de-
layed the farmer an hour under
various pretexts. 1t was getting
late when they reached Fender
and there Dees induced Mobley
to give him the money to pay
his debt, stopping the wagon a
short distance from the COM
missary, where he said the man
to whom the money was due did
business. Dees asked Mobley
to keep dark, as he did not want
his former employee to know he
was moving away. as he might
make trouble over the loss of
such q valuable hand. Dees
promptly disappeared.
Mobley waited several hours
for he negro's return. Finally
still not suspecting the trick
which had been played on him
he drove to the home Of ]. M
| Middleton, a farmer living about
mile distant, where he bought
feed for his mules. Mr.. Middle
ton took him in for the night, as
it was then after midnight, and
it was while he was relating his
troubles that itldawned on him
that he had been swindled.
Deese or Baker first worked
this trick on farmer from
Worth county leaving him in the
Iurch near Lennox four years
ago. He also swindled a farmer
at Mystic, in Irwin county, and
Mr. Whidden, in Tiff county
and later one in Lowndes coun-
He also feeced a Brooks Co. far
mer. : In the last county he was
caught and served a term on the
chaingang.. His methods were
the same i n each case and it is
remarkable that his victims con-
tinued to bite after so much
publicity had been given to the
swindle.
The officers of this section
have Dees. decription and are on
the lookout for him.

INCOME TAX

1NCOME L AA
just what Congress will do
with respect to the income tax is
something everyone is now try NC
to ascertain. 1t has been suggested
that a fiat tax of percent or
possibly 2 percent be levied on all
! incomes in excess of a certain
amount. It has been suggested
that the income tax be graduated
from l percent to 5 or 10 or even
so per cent. 1t has been suggest
ed shat the incomes under $4,000
a year be exempt. Others would
make the limit $4,000 or SIS. 900.
Some of the members of the Ways
and Means Committee want the fat
tax and others want a graduated
tax. Many have favored taxing
incomes over $4,000 on the basis
of l per cent for all in excess of
this sum. A Congressman or other
citizen therefore, with a salary of
81, 800 would pay per cent on
So. 500 or $35 year; at 2 per cent
he would pay $40 a year.
The Ways and Means Committee
has been figuring on this problem
with the aid of experts who have
been computing the amount of in
come the national treasury will re-
ceive from the tariff as proposed
in the new schedules. When the
probable amount of income has
been determined, the committee
will decide on what form the in
come tax feature will be modelled.
1t is understood that the income
tax will be made to bring in what
ever sum the tariff, the corpora
ton tax, and the internal revenue
tax fail to provide.
GENERAL LEGISLATION
President Wilson has been cred
tied with a desire to limit legisla-
ton at the coming session to the
tariff. This is not a correct state
ment of his attitude. He wants
to see the tariff rushed through at
all hazards, and to see it complet-
ed first. Then he would like to
have Congress take up various
other important matters and dis
pose of them rapidly. Among
these necessary matters are the
currency. Congress has been
studying the currency question for
some years with the aid of regular
and special committees and it hf S
accumulated a large amount of
data which will assist the lawmak.
ers in coming to some conclusion
as to the exact form of legislation
that is desirable. Then there is
the woman suffrage question. Re
