---OTO---- FAIRNESS, THAT'S ALL

At the request of State Senator Thomas c. Wh te, of Jefferson coun- ty, Senate Bill No. 19, an act to re- peal the Free Bridge enabling act, was yesterday referred to the jud1cl- ary committee when it was called up for consideration. Senator Whlte stated that he wanted al parl ln- terested to be heard.
 The ua'tion of Senator Wh te is de- serving of commendation for 1t is bet ter to be fair in all things and at all tines. In displaying his desire to be ia r to the Free Bridge advocates as well as the antis, Senator White, ,as doubtless redeemed hlmself in the eyes of his constituents, for moi even those who oppose the gree Bridge, as few as they may be o" any where else where the peoples in terests arc a. stake. Had senator White manifes ed a willingness to De fair from the start the Graph would not have criticised him, but now that he has given the matter due consid- eration and has probably finally de- cided hat he looked at the matter from the wrong angle and might be acting too hastily or unfa r, the Graphic is glad to flave the opportunl- ty to give him credit for his endeav- ors to do what sright and what seems to be the fair thing to do.
 Senator Wh te ough, to realize and he probably does that the office which he occupies-tha. of Senator from JefferstN county-is a trust i'm posed upon him by aM the people. He seems willing now to let all the people share equally an issue that presents itself in the upper branch of the General Assembly-an issue that vitally concerns them. It never the intention of the Graphic to criticise any public servant unless his act merit criticism and t seldom loses an opportunity to give cIedl, where credit is due.
 We are pleased to see senator Whi,e take the manly stand ill the Free Bridge controversy. It will re- dound to Il credi; and heal personal wounds that might have been lnfllct- ed had iae pursued the or ginal course he had outlined and declared he would carry out.

 ANOTHER

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 21.-A killing oc- cured in the Federal penitentiary here last Wednesday, apparently as he result of a joke. The first news of .he affair leaked out today. after completion of an nveGtigstion of :. special agent of the de3ar, ment c: justice.

It appeared from the investi gaion that Oudendyke, who Was 9 mute. threw some water on Kellas while passing through the butter roof which it was the negro's duty to keep clean. The negro asked the whit prisoner why he threw ',he water, and when the latter did not .reply, he turned h m around and pointed t. the water. Oudendyke threw up his arm, and Kellar is said to have miS taken the ac.ion for a hostile movr for he struck the old man in the fac. with his left. fist.
 No other blows were struck. Ou}en dyke falling heavily, his head strk~ ing hard on tae concrete floor. He died without re gaining consciousness. The autopsy disclosed taat death was caused by cerebral hemOrrhag,. caused by a bow struck by the ne- gro Or from the fall.

HOW TO RESIST
Chronic Coughs and Colds.

Strong, vigorous men and women
hardly ever catch cold; it's only when
the system is run down and vitality
low that colds and coughs get a foot
hold
Now isn't it reasonable that the
right way to cure a cough is to build
UP your strength again?
Mrs. Olivia Parham, of East Dur
ham, N. c., says: 81 took Vinol for a
chronic cough which had lasted two
years, and the cough not only disap-
peared, but it built up my strength
rs well"
The reason Vinol is so eflcacious in
such cases is because it contains in a
delicious concentrated form all the
medicinal curative elements Of cod
liver oil, with tonic, blood-bui,ding
iron added.
Chronic coughs and colds yield to
Vinol because it builds up the weak
ened. rundown system.
You can get your money back any
time If vinol does not do all we say.
