5M|TH-BRONN FEUD BACK
Of ATTEMPT To REVIVE
OLD RATE CASE, IS CHARGE

Bankruptcy cases and the like
stood at one side Friday in the dis
trict Federal Court, while big guns
doomed and Numbered to right and
left Of Judge Newman, hammering
ton McLendon-to get into the Fed
oral Court the o-called delinquency
Of the Georgia Railroad Commission
toward enforcing the reduced rates
wears ago.
Mr.. McLendon was appearing for
the Valdosta Chamber of Commerce
as an intervenor, on the one hand,
and (as he said himself as a friend
of the court" on the other. He stated
at length and with many citations his
right to intervene, and also to inform
the court of what was going on.
Three -Cornered Fight.
Opposed to MIR McLendon, and to
each other-making the case a three
cornered affair-were Judge Hines,
representing the Railroad Commits
sion, and Sanders Mcdaniel P. H. AL
ston and other attorneys, for the va
r7ous railroad interests.
There was crisp debate % on the
legal status of the Valdosta Chamber
Of Commerce, CD on the propriety of
Intervention, CD on the need of the
court for friend" in an advisory ca
pacity, (4 on politics of the Smith
Brown era, and (5) finally on the
question of whether the Federal Court
could be invoked to compel a State
commission to do what Mr.. McLen =
don conceived to be its duty.
Political Feud Revived.
Point was tartly, if briefly, con-
tested. Judge Hines, speaking in re-

ply to Nc McLendon's opening adj
dress, said that the case showed "on
its face that it was a political move,
pure and simple, fostered by the
ancient political feud between Hoke
Smith and Joe Brown
All of which | emphatically deny"
Mr.. McLendon interrupted, sharply.
Judge Hines (continung) failed to
see that the court required any
friendly advice from Mr. McLendon,
and added that the Valdosta Cham
Der of Commerce was not legal en-
tlty, and hence could not figure as in
tervenor in these proceedings
Point Held ImmateriaI.
Nc McLendon said that point was
immaterial; that if the Chamber Of
Commerce wasn't an entity. he would
get five, or ten, or hundred ship
pers in Valdosta to be the entities,
and carry on the battle in the same
manner
It was also asserted by the opposi-
'ioil lIdl the lower rates ndu not
been put in force on account of panic
conditions in 1907 the short cotton
crop in 1912, and certain other causes,
all of which Git appeared to the rail-
road attorneys were good grounds
for delay, to which Mr.. McLendon OBJ
jected eloquently and with feeling
After three hours of argument, the
affair ended virtually in a dogfall
Judge Newman took the matter of
Mr.. McLendon's intervention under
adVisement, and ruled that the case
dealing with certain restraining or
ders, on behalf of the railroads, should
be heard by three judges. The hear
ing probably will be arranged to be
held in New Orleans.

The honeymoon is in the offing!
Atlanta, having held most every
sort of convention you can think of,
will now add another sprig to her
laurel wreath by holding an uncon-
ventional convention-one of the sort
you'd hardly ever think OF.
1t is to be a convention of honey
mooners. And Shriner honeymoon
ers at that. The convention is SEIZED
uled for May. when the national con-
vention OF the Imperial Council Of
the Shriners is to be held here.

Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. c. Maxwell have
been Shriner honeymooners and know
what It's like. Mr.. cIaXwell, who is
advertising manager for the Rhodes
Wood Furniture iOmpany, says It's
great. Mrs Maxwell holds to the
same opinion.
There's one thing you can say
about It," says she. IF you go to a
Shriners' convention as a bride and
live through the teasing and congrat-
ulations you get you are joke proof.
After that the most expert kidder'

Mr.. Maxwell, who at the time was
living in Charleston, S. c., was wed
in Forest City, Ark. and left imme-
diately for the convention city in the
Lone Star State.

HOW CHILDREN GROW

Children grow by nourishment-not
overloaded stomachs or rich foods but
qualities that are readily converted into
DEMONSTRATING blood; too often their
digestive powers cannot procure these
qualities from ordinary foods which results
in weakness, dullness and sickness.
If your children are under-size, under
weight, catch cold easily, are languid,
backward, pale or frail, give them Scott s
Emulsion whichis pure medicinal nourish-
ment. 1t sharpens the appetite, builds
healthy flesh, firm muscles and active
brains. SCOTS is growing food foI
children. Refuse alcoholic substitutes.

turn him loose, and he stays
