interview with President Wilson to
talk about himself was given polite
instructions as 10 how 10 find the
nearest way to the door. But that
offceseeker is not to be blamed.
Perhaps he has.had experience with
other Presidents and found that they
did not always mean what they said.

President Wilson has shown
remarkable judgement in the
selection of his cabinet. Critics
are agreed that the cabinet as at
present constituted is prehaps the
best that this country has ever
had. Strong, brilliant men have
not been wanting in previous
cabinets, but none other has ever
known the splendid personel and
the coordination of the present
cabinet. Even the political en-
emies of the President have to
admit that his selection of a cab
met leaves little to be desired.

be regretted that sectional differ

50 great a part in this so vital a

The death struggle that IS sure
to be between the opposing FAC
tions now represented in the
House and Senate, can and will,
result in progress, wheather that
progress is along lines that are
sane, or whether radicalism is
allowed to prevail to the detri-
ment of the nation. The possible
accomplishments of this congress

are those that affect a population

Probably no stronger test of
the fiber of a people could be
made than that of a change of ad
ministration. This is the more
forcibly impressed upon us. in
view of the troubles of our sister
republic, Mexico. While COM
parisons are said to be always
odious, we cannot refrain from
congratulatiug ourselves upon the
possession of a blessed sense of
humor, for we believe that it is
that quality that in a large meas
ure makes of the American people
good losers: with us after the ex-
citement of a political campaign,
he country settles down into the
even tenor of its ways and all un-
ite in upholding the administra-
tion. with our Latin neighbors
it is entirely different. 1t seems
that a change of administration
with them is considered a matter
of life or death, and we can but
think that they lack the leaven of
sense Of humor that would cause
them to realize that the country
is safe as long as the hearts of
the people are right. No matter
who happens to be president.

That this country is upon a
sound financial basis has been
abundantly evidenced by the re-
cent shipment of gold to foreign
countries. No less than S178. 600
O00,0 in gold has been shipped
during the past few MOI tbs,
and it has had a scarcely appre-
ciable effect upon money rates
in our financial centcrs. While
stocks and low interest rate
bonds have declined in prices. it
does notlnecessarliy indicate a
scarcity of money, but in our op
inion a closer scrutiny on the part
of the public of securities offered.
Another factor making for low
prices in dividend bearing secur-
tiles is the high prices obtained
for commodities other than
money; the investing public right
ly feels entitled to a larger return
for its money than has recently
been offered.
We think move in the fright
direction has been made In the
appointment of a committee on
banking and cure cy in the
present congress. Heretofore,
the duties which will, devolve up
on this new committee, have been
performed or neglected by the
finance committee of the Senate.
Currency reform is confronting
the present administration, and
there should be a strong commit
tee to look after this matter and
see that we get legislation that
will relieve us from panics and
their attendant evils.

NEARLY TEN THOUSAND
BALES GINNED IN COBB
Five Thousand Bales More
Than Had Been Ginned
One Year ago

Mr. J, L. Stephens, cotton census
enumerator for Cobb county, reports
officially that the cotton ginned in
the county to October Is amounted
to 1898 bales, as compared with
1888 bales to the same date last
year,
This is an increase of 5,305 bales
and Mr.. Stephens thinks the $3.50
bales amounts to nearly half the crop
that will be ginned in the county. If
that is correct Cobb will not make as
much cotton as was expected. Some
of the estimates have gone as high as
$4,000 bales.
There are fory-seven gins in oper-
alton in Cobb Mr. Stephens has to
visit them all and it keeps him busy.

Cattle and Mr.. ]. 7. Anderson Seven Firsts on
Herefords Is Fine Showing

Cobb county failed to win the
first prize for the best aggregate ex-
hibit of any county in the state, but
through Mr.. R. H Northcutt and
home a bunch of first and second
prize ribbons, and then some, for the
best cattle.
Mr. Northcutt entered only dairy
cattle, and what he did to the prizes
is shown below. He believes in fine
cattle and won't have any other kind
on his model farm. Any man in the
country would be proud to be award
ed the number of prizes which he
captured, especially when it is fact
= that the fair which has Just closed
was the best ever held in Georgia.
Here is what he brought back
prizes for:
Aged bull--First.
Bull, one year and under two

a COW which the owner claimed has
never been beaten before in the ring
and had been all over the circuit.

c0Ws-First
Champion bull of the show-First.

Mr. James T. Anderson is just as
particular about fine cattle as Mr..
Northcutt. The only difference is
that Mr.. Northcutt raises the kind
you drink and Mr.. Anderson the
kind you make porterhouse steak
and roast beef out of. He has a

MEETING HELD MONDAY NIGHT
FOR COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
EX-Mayor Clay, Col Cheney, Mr.. Cortelyou,
Mr. Potter And Others Spoke In Favor OF
Trying New System of City Government

A large and practically unanimous
meeting of citizens was held at the
Court House Monday night to con-
slider the proposed commission form
OF government, which will be voted
on next Tuesday The meeting
had not been very widely advertised,
only a few circulars having been
scattered around, but this was sup
plemented with music by the Gem
City brass band, which played in
front of the Court House and inside
the court room while the crowd was
gathering.
Colonel ]. H. Boston, Jr,, was
called to the chair and presided. He
stated the object of the meeting and
spoke of the necessity for united
action in the interest of Marietta.
Mr.. l.. B. Robson, one of the
members of the Water Board, was
called on as the first speaker, and
made very earnest talk. He re-
ferred to the increased expense of
the city and then said the situation
demanded more concentration OF
management than is possible with a
large Council. He asserted that he
could manage the affairs of the Wa
ter Board better by himself than
could be done as it is now consti-
tuted, and in this Mr.. Granting
agreed with him.
The city has gotten behind about
$4,000, Is unable to borrow money
and this floating Indebtedness haf
reacted on the Water Board and i'm
paired it's credit. He said he could
not be induced to serve again, even II
commission government should not
be adopted, and If 1t should be
adopted he would be legislated out Of
office, so that in any event he woult
be out after January.
The next administration would gt

treasury and with no power to Dor
row money and with a floating in
debtdness of $40, 600 He said he
would no more repudiate the debts
of Marietta than he would repudi-
ate his own debts and he would vote
for any good men to take hold of the
problem even if they were men who
would not speak TO him
Colonel d. w Blair spoke next
and said Marietta was confronted by
a serious problem in this floating
debt. There is no way to meet the
situation except by the adoption Of
the new charter and the placing of
affairs in the hands of three men,
who, being able to devote themselves
to the work, could manage more
closely than the Council could pos
sibly do. The city's income is $4e,-
900, to which the Water Boards in
come would be added, making re-
ceipts of $4,000 a year. Yet this
big business is handled by men
meeting for an hour or so only once
a month. The new charter provides
a levy of ten cents on the hundred
dollars for three years with which to
meet the floating Indebtedness, and
without that 1t will be impossible to
restore the city's credit.
Mr.. Joseph s, Calhoun, of Carters-
vile, spoke of the great benefits that
have come to Gainesville from the
| adoption of the commission form and
said he did not know of man in the
town who would vote to go back 10
the old system, which was so cumber-
some and unsatisfactory.
Colonel Moultrie M. Sessions spoke
very heartily in favor of the new
| charter He said we could not do
worse than we are doing now He
felt about 1t like the fellow who
was asked by a waiter whether he

FIRST MAN CONVICTED
BY INSPECTOR JOYNER

In Jefferson Superior Court last
week Judge Brand sentenced Emory
Montgomery. colored, to twelve and
one-half years in the penitentiary
for burning barn. This conviction
is the first under the new law that
allows the state to investigate fires
supposed to be of incendiary origin.
State Fire Marshal Cap" Joyner
thinks this conviction will have a
good effect in preventing incendiary
fires and feels encouraged in his
work, which is not very pleasant.

COBB TAKES SECOND
At THE STATE FAIR
Exhibit Gotten Up By Govern
ment Demonstration Agent
feats The Banner County

Although Uncle Gid" did not
bring back first prize from Macon
this year he brought second, which,
under the circumstances, is doing ex-
tremely we'll.
This was the best state fair ever
held in number and excellence of
the exhibits, and Houston county
won first prize largely because it's
exhibit was collected by a govern
ment agricultural demonstrator. Mr.
Morris has not been we'll for some
time, and began collecting his ex-
hibit only three weeks before the
fair opened He won $40 for the best
five hollis of cotton on the stalk over
eleven contestants. Mrs. Morris did
not enter anything except in the
county's exhibit Mr.. James T. An
derson won second premium on the
best twelve stalks of corn in the
Cobb county exhibit. Mr.. d. A. Sum-
merour won first premium on the
best ten ears of corn for the third
time and received 500 from the
Georgia Seed Store, in Macon.
Mr. Cliff Fowler has sold his Berk-
shires to the Central Railroad.
Mrs Morris says Cobb county will
try again for first place and restore
its claim as the banner county in
| agriculture.
The fine showing made by Cobb
county for many years has stimu-
lated other counties to greater ef-
forts and when a government demon
| strator is given opportunities to
prove what can be done on Cobb
! county farms then the rest of the
state can sit up and take notice OF
our exhibits at future fairs.
