The next migration was that of
the Assyrians, who settled on the
banks of the Tigris and Euphrates.
And there they built two great
cities-Babylon and Ninevah.
And rich as were the plains OF
Assyria, food failed there at times.
In the Bible we read an account
of how certain of these Assyrains
were compelled to go down ilto
Egypt and beg for food. And we
learn, later how Joseph, with the
help of Egyptians, cornered the corn
market, and violated the Sherman
act.
From Assyria the tide of migra-

When your liver becomes torpid
and sluggish you can take calomel
and whip 1t into action, but the
calomel will leave your body weak

is a very powerful drug, a form Of
mercury, and need never be used be-
cause there is a perfect remedy TO
take the place OF calomel. that has

uncertain follow-ups. It's name is
Dodson's Liver Tone.
The Standard Drug Company sell
Dodcon's Liver Tone with the guar

treats you much better than calomel,
they will give you your money back
With d smile. Dodson's Liver Gone
is true tonic for the liver, purely
vegetable, and with such a pleasant
taste that it is no trouble to get
children to take 1t. 1t Is absolutely
Impossible for it to do anyone any

eliminate the cotton crop of 1915.

speakers to carry the doctrine OF
elimination to the Lone Star state,
Senator McLaurin said: If we
plant no cotton in 1915, the mo-
ment that is understood She crop of
1914 assumes an enormous value,
II OF only in lint cotton but in the
seed. The surplus will command an
, increasingly large price, N anti

He went on the police force as w.
c. Duke more than 30 years ago. In
his long career he had many hair
raising adventures once he arrested
a desperate negro who showed fight.
The negro cut nine bad gashes in his
body, one of the wounds over his
heart being the ultimate cause of his
death.
He carried a bullet in his leg to the
last as the mark of another raid and
three times he had his right ankle
broker, which finally forced him to
wear clutches during mis- last years.
Several years ago officer Duke was
pensioned by Council, Immediately

Legislation has almost been ex-
hausted, but TO no avail.
My observation has been that
IL you don't allow men to drink
alcoholic liquor they will find a
substitute which is a great deal
worse.
Beer is the greatest temper
ance agent there is. Go into
saloon and you will find 80 per
cent of the people in there drink
ing beer. and the other 10 per
cent whisky. Let people have
what they want to drink and they
will choose beer, which is not
harmful in any sense of the
word.
People are bound to have
stimulants, and If they are not
permitted to have liquor, a great
many of them will resort to drugs.
This is one of the serious results
of attempting to enforce prohi-
bition laws"

would care to say Of the matter, per-

The election of Thomas Converse
Jr., to the Mayoralty of Valdosta, and
by a handsome and conclusive ma
jority, while not particularly surpris-
ing. will be a matter of pleasing in
terest not only to South Georgia, but
to the State generally.
Mr.. Converse is a most successful
and popular young man, and is very
strong politically Ia his section of the
State. IT Is said by his friends that
higher honors still are in store for
him.
The Mayor elect, by the way, is a
nephew of State Senator w. l.. Con-
verse, who is a candidate for Con-
gress against Representative Ran
dali Walker and a good deal of the
credit for the younger mans victory
Is being given the Senator, on ac-
count of the quiet, but highly effect
i've support he gave his nephew.
Senator Converse is making an ear
nest and so the OOPS" runs. a most
formidable campaign FOR Congress,
and it looks now as If the race has
about narrowed down to Converse
and Walker. with plenty of root
ing" going on both ways.
Bob Adamson, formerly of Geor-
Ria and Atlanta, has a high opinion
of the efficiency of women in poiti-
cal work, no less than along other
lines, and in a recent interview said:
! have found that women, in
any work involving the welfare
and safety of the public are most
jealous and energetic, and | have
also found that women display
very high grade of ability for the
salaries paid. | think the pre1u
dice against the employment Of
women in these and other posi-
tons which they can fill as well
as men can fill them is dying out.
Since he left Georgia a good many
years ago, Mr. Adamson has been
most successful in the field OF New
York City politics, and what he says
of women workers in public affairs
will be accepted by many as true
and just statement Of fact.

GAMBLING IN
STOCKS HIT
Untermyer Leads in Fight for the
Owen Bill, Aimed at Abuses
in Wall Street.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4-With
Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the
Pujo Money Trust Investigating
Committee, leading the fight for its
enaction, the Senate Committee on
Banking and Currency to-day began
hearings on the owen bill to prohibit
the use of mails, telephone or tele-
graph for furtherance of unlawful
stock exchange transactions. The
bill, which calls for a sweeping reor-
ganization OF Wall street methods,
was opposed by a number of repre-
sentatives of brokers.
Mr. Untermyer, the chief witness
in the advocacy of the bill, cited nu-
merous court opinions and recon
mendations of the House committee
which favorably reported a similar
bill in the Sixty second Congress.
