sure Next Monday.

temperance measure before congress
in a generation viz, the Kenyon-She-
pard bill. They are confident the bill

of the House committee and the Rep
resentatives have to face 1t by a vote
Rev. James III. Northrup pastor of

the state, T. A. Cairns. of Newark.
the most active worker of the Anti
Saloon League. He will address the

the bill will be set forth at that time
and the citizens will be directed into
the bes. way Of making their influ-
ence felt on the representatives In
congress.
Mr.. Cairns was here last year and
captivated and convinced a big au-
dience by the beauty and reasonable
ness that accompanied the dynamite
Oh MS WORDS.
The victory Of prohibition in West
Virginia. and the recent defeat Of
a pro-liquor bill in the state legisla-
ture are new evidences that at least \
betterment of the extreme and out
rageous liquor conditions that exist
In this part Of tho country may rea-
sonably be looked for.
The vote In Perth Amboy last fall
showed that the people want and are
beginning to demand a little tenn
perance In the policy dealing with
the big brewers and their bartenders.
Temperance speakers used to be ac-
cused of extreme and intemperance
language, but that time Is passed. for
wherever there has been an investi-
cation made, it showed that the SIM
ple-minded temperance people has
but meagerly described the condi-
tions.
Though Mr.. Cairns will need no In
PRODUCTION Sunday night for the pur-
pose of making the audience ac-
quainted with him. the minister will.
as a temperate preliminary to the ad-
dress introduce the speaker.

DAVIS SLATED To

Knowing Politicians Assert That
Warm Springs Man Will Be
Next Game Warden.

The impression among those 20
litical observers who put two and
two together with more than aver
age accuracy is that Charles Davis.
Of Warm Springs, will be named
state Game Warden in succession TO
Jesse Mercer, of Fitzgerald within
the next few days.
Mr.. Davis is one of the very best
posted men in Georgia on matters
pertaining to game and fish, and has
studied not only the laws of Georgia,
but Of every other State in the Union
as well. He has been heavily in
dorsed TO the Governor for the posi-
ton.
Mr.. Mercer, who has served in the
capacity of State Game Wadren since
the Office was created, has the back
ing of a large number of sincere par
tisans for reappointment but the
knowing ones predict that he will
lose, nevertheless.
This is one of the best offices with
in the gift of the administration Mr.
Mercer has taken great interest and
has been very active in the a6minis-
tration OF hte game laws, and for a
time II was thought that he might be
reappointed.
The term of Wadren Mercer ex-
PRED several weeks ago. and he now
is holding office until his successor
is named and qualified"
