but il cannot be secured fast enough.
In one day 5000 worth of this ser
UNI arrived at the express office for
various farmers and veterinarians.
Scarcely a day passes but 5000 worth
of it is shipped in. On account of
the prevalence of the cholera many
hogs are being sold and shipped to
market, despite that prices have
been declining for a week. Among
the heavier losers are Ray Green
wood, who lost a herd of 800; Al
Ely, 275; Chris Stein, $50; l.. n.

M'NAUGHTON'S PARDON
TO BE ASKED In AUGUST
Petition to Be Sent to GG0r
Ola Prison Commission

Augusta, Ga, July 19.--The real
fight in the McNaughton case as it is
considered, will come at the meeting
of the Georgia prison commission,
which meets August II, when a petit
ton for full and complete pardon for
McNaughton will be asked by Attorney
A. L. Franklin, of Augusta, chief coun-
sci for the defendant, according to Z
statement given out by him last night.
Relative to the action of the state
not pressing the case against Mrs
Matte Flanders, jointly charged with
DR.. w. ]. McNaughton with producing
the death of her husband, Fred Flal-
ders, at Swainsboro, Wednesday, Mr.
Franklin gave out a strong interview
last night. He plans to argue the petit
ton for McNaughton's pardon in per-
son, he stated. The statement issued
by him, in part, follows:
at is patient on the face of the ord
er for mol pros that all that long pre-
amble is intended for nothing but 70
try to bolster up the conviction of Nc
Naughton, which they know was Sc
cured on the heated passions of a
worked-up public sentiment, and not
on sound evidence Not circumstan-
tiaI evidence even convicted McNaugh
ton, but a then highly inflamed public
mind.
"Those attorneys associated with
the states attorney in the prosecution
Of this case have been playing for time
and have at last played out. This IS
merely an effort to keep the fame fan
ned until the period of respite last
granted McNaughton has expired. 1t s
the weakest play they have made, but
they will lose; McNaughton will be
pardoned.
"This is a complete reversal of the
position on which McNaughton was
convicted. 1t was not the purpose Of
the state to try Mrs. Flanders at all

HAVE YOU SOMETHING
TO SELL? -. -. - -.

If so, do you tell the public
about it? If you do, how do
you do it?
And what sort of reputation
is back of the merchandise you
are offering?
The answers to these ques-
tons may spell success or fail
ure to many merchant.
From an intimate association
with a wide circle of concerns,
merchandising all the neces-
saries of life, we venture to say:
''The quickest and surest way
to reach the public is through
the columns of a dependable
daily newspaper like The Times
Recorder-one that has high
standing in the community it
serves, and has the confidence
of its readers.
"The most dependable articles
sold today are those to which
the manufacturer is not afraid
to attach his label--that is to
say, his reputation.
Retail merchants are now
joining hands with the manu-
facturer, and the public is thus
doubly guaranteed against in
feriority.
"The combination of manu-
facturer and retailer plus good,
clean newspaper advertising.
means success to them both,
with the maximum of satisfac
ton to the purchaser"

Suddenly Mr.. Suggs made his pro-
posal to which there was almost liz
slant assent. The wide breach had been
over the vital section of the Lipscomo
bill, providing for state board of

Mr.. Suggs proposed that a state
board of three be named, the chairman
to receive 81 per day, the two members
SIS per day and travelling expenses in
going to and from their deliberations
and that their sessions be limited TO
so days per year. Furthermore, the
powers of this state board is Unite |
