Buddhists Desire Peace.

Toxic, Oct. 7 -Buddhists assem-
bled in mass meeting today in the
form of message to President Will
son, bearing on the Japanese-Ameri-
can relations. The message, which
was forwarded to the president, was
az follows:
"For the sake of universal peace
and the progress of humanity, which
are the ideals of Buddhism, we, in
paying homage to the president,
earnestly wish for the development of
friendship between Japan and the
United States based on liberty and
justice, with the exclusion of reli@-
ious and racial prejudices."
Three thousand Buddhists were
present. M. Oisho, leader of the
Progressive party, declared only b'
war could Japan obtain fundamec-
tai solution Of the California land
question. The newspaper, iii Shin
po, says that negotiations shortly are
to be reopened with the United States
in the matter of California alien land
act.
Japan" says the paper, desiring
to reach fundamental solution Of
the California question and finding
the acquisition of naturalization
for Japanese in California most diff
cult, is about to propose new treaty
with the United States. Formal nego-
tiations, which have been delayed on
account of Washington's preoccupa-
ton with the Mexican troubles and
the tariff bill, will be begun at an
early date"

There are few places in California
where the honey industry is growing
at a more rapid rate or where the
field is more profitable. During the
past season eight cars of material
alone were required to supply hives
and supplies for the busy little honey

BLAZE OF CONVICTION
Sweeping Over the Whole Country

The more people know of the great
discovery that has made so many re-
markable cures throughout the state
during the past few months the more
convinced are they of the great merit
of Globe Tonic. Thousands of people
have been cured by it all over the
country. Many that used it for a short
while are so loud in their praise that
their neighbors crowd into 202 N.
Main street to get some of the health
promoting Tonic. Usually one bottle
will convince, and it is but seldom
that five or six bottles do not make a
complete cure of indigestion, consti-
patton, nervousness, rheumatism
and other troubles arising from a
diseased condition of the stomach,
liver, kidneys and bowels. 1t seems
to cure by removing the cause. 1t
heals, and tones the blood. People
are praising it all over the South.
If you cannot call We sell the regular
81 bottle for so cents 6 for $1.25),
and guarantee it. Also sold at same
by the druggists of Dawson, Parrot

OFFER 20 CENTS ON DOLLAR

OUT LETTER TO CREDITORS.

| Have Operated Under DISadVant-
ages Since Plant Was Destroyed
by Fire Five Years Ago.
The Variety Works Company, one
of the oldest and best known indus
trial enterprises of this section, has
mailed a letter to the company's
creditors offering to settle unsecured
claims at 20 cents on the dollar.
Prior to the destruction of their en-
tire plant, together with nearly mil
lion feet of lumber about five years
ago, the company did an extensive
and prosperous business throughout
Southwest Georgia and Southeast AL
ALBANIA. There was no insurance on
the property and the loss was COM
plete.
New houses were erected and new
machinery installed, but being heav-
lily handicapped by the loss from fire
and the expense of a new outfit, TO-
gether with other causes, the COM
pany has not prospered as it did be-
fore The letter making the offer Of
settlement fully sets forth the condi-
ton of the company's affairs. 1t
says:
THE Variety Works Company,
during the past five years, have been
subjected to many financial reverses,
principal of which was by fire in the
year 1908, entailing a loss of ap-
proximately $4,000 Since that
time its officers have expended their
best efforts to overcome these re-
verses and by every means known to
them, tried to meet all obligations
dollar for dollar, but find on account
of existing financial conditions that
to be impossible. There is now an
outstanding Indebtedness against the
said corporation, comprising notes,
accounts, judgments and mortgages,
to the amount of SAG, S40.91, towit;
Notes, 81, 061.75; accounts, ST.

GLIDING real estate, stock on hand,
machinery and Indebtedness due, un-
der normal conditions would be
worth $4,000, but under present con-
ditions, at a forced sale, would hard
Iy bring SIS, 900, and should it be
forced to a sale the proceeds would
go to liquidate the mortgages, which
are older than outstanding judg-
ments, and the unsecured creditors
would receive nothing; therefore, in
view of the above state of affairs,
the stockholders have agreed to make
the unsecured creditors an offer of
20 per cent of the principal of their
claims, with the proviso that all I'M
secured creditors accept said offer in
full settlement within the next twen-
ty days"
