GEORGIA'S TWO SENATORS
ARE RECOGNIZED AS AMONG
LEADING FORCES OF NATION.
Bacon and Smith on Cordial Terms,
and Work Together in Harmony.
Washington Stars Tribute.

| WASHINGTON. - Both Geor-
gia senators are of state department
size said the Washington Star in an
editorial last Saturday discussing
available material in the democratic
party for secretary of state in the
Wilson cabinet. Senators Bacon and
Smith were mentioned as among
number of other good men who
would adorn the office and render
good service in it. William ]. Bryan
was the subject of the editorial.
1t is comment like that of the Star
that makes a Georgian in Washing
ton doubly proud of his state. Sena-
Gors Bacon and Smith reflect credit
not only upon Georgia. but on the
South and on the nation as well.
They are recognized as among the
leading forces of the senate. This
recognition is not confined to the
Georgians in the national capital, nor
to the personal friends of the two
men, but it extends to most persons
familiar with the deliberations of the
senate.
The Stars editorial on Bryan is
even moro complimentary to the
Georgia senators by what it does not
say than by what it says. Besides
Mr.. Bacon and Mr.. Smith the Star
mentions three or four other men
well known in national affairs, but
out of the entire democratic mem
bership of the United States it picked
only the Georgians, who would
adorn the Office Senator Bacon is
the Oldest democrat in the senate in
point of service, and Senator Smith
is one of the youngest,
Work in Perfect Harmony.
While it would be impossible to
detract from the ability of either
Senator Bacon or Senator Smith as
individuals their value to the state
of Georgia is enhanced and made
more evident by the perfect har-
mony in which they work. They are
warm personal friends. Each has
the highest regard for the ability
and integrity of the other. They con-
fer almost daily about large govern
mental matters and questions of par
ty policy. They are in agreement
usually. AS to matters relating
strictly TO Georgia they get along
like two old shoes. They may diff
fer-I have never heard of any differ
ences, however-but each comedies
to the other honesty of purpose, and
the motive of either is never ques-
toned nor misunderstood.
The spirit of harmony that moves
the Georgia senators is magnitied by
contrast with that of senators from
other states. Senator LaFollett and
Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin do
not speak as they pass by The rela-
tons between Senator Luke Lea of
Tennessee and Judge Shield, who has
been recently elected by the Tennes-
see legislature, are not friendly. SEN
ator John Sharp Williams and Sena-
tor-elect Vardaman of Mississippi
are not on good terms.

WANTS TO KNOW WHAT'S BEER
Government Claims Amber Fluid Is
Not What 1t Is Labeled.

Not What 1t Is Labeled.
What is beer?" is the question
put directly to the supreme court of
the District of Columbia by the gov
eminent in fixing libel against the
product of local brewer. 1t was de-
clared that government victory in
the case would affect brewers the
country over and would bring about
the confiscation of products with
value running into the millions.
The suit, which was instituted at
the request of the pure food and drug
board of the department of agricuit-
ure, alleged that the product was
misbranded in that it was labeled
malt and hop brew" with represent
alton of medals of award for its pur-
ity and excellence.
The government charges that the
beverage is not an exclusive malt and
hop brew.

ceeding. Makes Farming Pay.
The Cuthbert Leader reports that
one of Randolph county's most sue
cessful planters, DR.. w. R. Terry, of
Shellman, recently sold in a lump
$4,000 worth of cattle. The most
of these he bought a few months ago
and fattened on the forage he had
raised.
In addition to the profits he made
in the transaction he estimates that
the fertilizers thus gained will be of
considerable benefit to his lands.
DR.. Terry can raise cotton success
fully, but he finds other crops as
profitable. He gets large yields of
oats and hay and corn, and last year
harvested several hundred bushels of
peanuts, buying a machine to handle
them.

son SAYS FATHER ENRICHED
HER BY DEEDS TO LANDS.
SOME LOVE LETTERS.

NEW YORK.-In pursuance of his
campaign or reprisal against his dis
tinguished father Stanton Sickles
went to Babylon, L. l., yesterday to
delve into suburban realty records.
81 have received information that
leads me to believe that Eleanor Earl
Wilmerding, who has been my faith
ers housekeeper for many years,
holds many valuable parcels of Long
Island real estate" said young Sick
les Il intend to find out just what
lands she possesses and what their
value is. Then | shall know how to
proceed to regain my inheritance,
which General Sickles has squander-
ed on her and another woman. l
will not go further at this time than
to state that Miss Wilmerding was in
penurious circumstances when she
entered my fathers service"
While Stanton Sickles was taking
this step contributions toward the
relief of General Sickles-who is
charged with the larceny of $23, 476
of state funds-were pouring in up
on Sheriff Hamburger.
The sheriff was afforded. a great
deal of pleasure by the receipt of
letter from Captain Jos. B. Green
hut, president of the Greenhut-Siegel
Cooper Company, offering to contrib
ute 1000. Captain Greenhut fought
with Sickles at the battle of Gettys-
burg.
Bars Wife and Son Forever.
General Sickles, although main
tanning strictly his attitude of per-
sonal silence, said through mem
Der of his household that Stanton
Sickles was AN ungrateful son whose
words count for nothing in the
minds of thinking people, Neither
he nor his mother will ever be per-
mitted to cross my threshold again.
Stanton's answer to this was to
give out for publication four more
letters written by his father in 1896
and 1897 to the woman leader of the
Four Hundred, to whom, according
to the son, the aged warrior was de-
voted for eighteen years. In one,
written while the woman was con-
templa ing marriage with her pres
ent husband a we'll known New
York club MANI, occurs the follow
ing:
Although you have put the ocean
between us you are mine, my wife.
You have told me so thousand
times. l have sworn you will not
marry another until l die. You will
not have long to wait. If you do not
wait three graves will be filed the
same day. 1 have sworn it, and will
make my oath good here or else
where"
On the back of a blank check of
the Bank of the Metropolis is writ
ten:
Love on Back of Check.
"You are my life-you take it
from me-you leave me to die with
