NEEDED REFORM PROMISED.

Representative Slater of Bryan
county says it is his intention to in
troduce into the legislature at TIE
session next summer a bill providing
for the Australian ballot system, with
the purpose of putting a stop to vote
buving in Georgia. If that is rem
edy for the vote-buying evil it should
have the support of every senator
and representative. 1t is evident
that the grand juries and courts have
failed to cope with it. AS the Sa-
vannah News says, it has been in ex-
istence so long that it is tolerated.
There isn't enough public sentiment
against it to put a stop to it. In
discussing that phase of the evil our
contemporary says:
1T is true of course that every
body condemns it. but only in mild
sort of way. They don't feel that
indignation against it that takes the
form of an organized movement
that says to grand juries that they
must seek earnestly and diligently
for evidence against vote buyers and
vote sellers and must indict those
against whom evidence is found. The
evil would soon be stopped if every
citizen should go after
the vote buyer and vote seller with
the same sort of determination that
he displays when he hunts the de-
frauder, the embezZler or che thief,
and yet it is of just as vital import
ance TO him that those who sell their
votes and who furnish the money
with which the voter is corrupted
shall be punished as it is that the
hief. the embezzler or the defaulter
hall be made to suffer for his crime.
f only the vote seller were involved
he evil would be soon stopped. 1t
s because those who furnish the
money with which voters without
ride or self-respect are bought are
prominent and influential that it is
If Mr.. Slater takes up the matter
e should prosecute it with that spir-
of reform which will not admit of
allure.

THE KILLING HAS BEGUN.

The whole North Georgia peach
crop for 1913 budded and was killed
the other morning! Gentle reader,
be not too sorely distressed, even
though you love peaches more than
any other fruit. The budding did
not occur on the peacn trees. Ncr
did the killing. Both sad events oc.
Cured in the minds of agricultural
experts Of timorOus nature; in the
ned .es of reporters and editors any,
in for hit of sensati Ipal and
readable news. So they budded and
killed off the peach crop.
OF course this ruthless slaughter
OF the fair alberta takes place ev-
cry season, yet she survives. Of
course there is some little element
Of truth in the reports In few
isolated instances the unseasonably
warm weather is making the trees
bud prenaturely. But that is all.
This same complete slaughter oc-
CURED last year in February. Pitiful
little peach blossoms, pink and froz-

photographs of them were SOL

Georgia has ever had.

Unquestionably ground fires are
very INJURIOUS. Compared to the hu-
man family, the injury to the SEED
lings and seeds of the forest by
ground fires, is equivalent to killing
the babies. No new generation or Tor

forest fires prevail.

Jury comes of seorching the larger

lowers the vitality of the tree and
hence retards it's general develop

attack an injured tree and the h~e

As protection against future pan
les Senator Smith, it is said, will
soon introduce a joint resolution in
congress providing for extension of
the emergency act. This law ex-
pires by limitation June 80, 1914. 1t
provides reservoir of 100000, 900
of emergency currency, which banks
may issue in time of stress. The
notes are taxed at the rate of D per
cent per annum for the first month
they are outstanding and l per cent
for each month thereafter
until the tax reaches 10 per cent. The
high tax is designed to force their
retirement when they are no longer
needed. The law was enacted at the
instance of those who thoroughly re-
allied the lessons of the crisis of
1907.
