about twenty-five years the railroads

courts sit day after day and try cases
brought against this railroad, but
not one cent of tax does our county

support and fight for a measure
looking to the collection of taxes as
above indicated If this view should
become law, Cobb County would
receive more than $12,OO0.00 per
year railroad taxes from this pro-
perty, and in this way, the enormous
expense of the legitation would he
paid, whereas, under the present re-
gime, not one cent of taxes go into
the Treasurer of Cobb County to de-
fray any portion of the expenses of
this delegation. If this tax was COL
lected, and it should be, think of the
miles Of public roads that could be
built each year from this fund.
l am in favor of retaining the
County Commissioners for our Coun-
ty and working the convicts ON the
roads. I believe the interest of our
people can be best served by five
commissioners coming from differ
ent portions of the county than by
any one man at the county site.
There are other topics of interest
which may come up from discussion
later. 1t is my purpose, in the event
there is opposition to my candidacy,
to publicly discuss these issues in
the several precincts of the county,
so that you may know fully what

Now in sending a man to the United States Senate,
the responsibility is upon YOU.
1t is sacred duty to your State to vote for the

Does the office need experience?
JOHN nj. SLATON has it. Twenty years of tried
fitness.
Does the Office require breadth and magnanmity?
There is nothing narrow in JOHN M. SLATON. He
is always kindly disposed.
Does the office require God-fearng man?
In Christian virtues JOHN nj. SLATON rings true
He is loyal to his Church and Sunday School. 1t is not
generally known that he is at the head of large Bible
Class
Does the Office require a sef-made man?
JOHN Nj. SLATON earned and saved the money
which gave him his education He had the hard knocks
of bitter experience. He through hard
work. He farmers boy with only the prospects
before him of thousands of other Georgia boys

Does the office require of poised attain
ments and well balanced judgment?
JOHN NJ. SLATON as a United States Senator will
be the peer of most noted for service to their
States, to the Nation, and to the Democratic Party
Does the office require successful man?
Character first considered success should be count
ed in JOHN NJ SLATON'S slogan has always been
WORK, HARD WORK.. His success as young man
was Ine result or applied TOLL His advancement at
the bar because he had the capacity stick hard

Behold the Man

Villa the bandit begins to look like Villa the pat

1t takes mighty big to step aside and yield
the melght to another in the interest of harmony.
Especially when that other is obscure kicker
who has to be placatea. Yet Villa. to whose sheer
genius for leadership the Mexican rebels much
of their gains not only does this but does it without
whining.
BY lifting his finger he could turn his army
against his successor in command. Instead, he puts
the first and counsels all his friends to do
likewise.
AS demonstration of character this is about the
most hopeful thing which has happened in Mexico
since this trouble began.
In judging men like Villa it is necessary to take
into account their circumstances. Villa, two years
ago, could not read write Always true to his
word and loyal to his friends, he knew nothing of
history of the sciences of the great currents of civil
lization. He knew merely that the great majority
of his countrymen had been plundered for centur-
les, that they had been denied chance, and he
sought way to aid them.
His way was the fighting mans way. He used
force against force, craft against craft cruelty
against cruelty.
But Villa is quick to learn. All who have been

himself to read and write Since fate and native
ability made him conspicuous and powerful he has
studied intensely. Few men in any age have grown
more rapidly.
And now we have this new and browning proof of

Undignified?
Nay, just human.
There more than symbolism in the Indian
custom of ending grave councils with the pipe of
peace. Smoking with brother is much like break
ing bread with him; it is a token of fellowship.
We've often thought there lot of flubdub In
the stiff "dignty" cultivated in most court rooms
Gowns and wigs and owlish faces don't make real
dignity; they're just imitation.
Justice, sympathy, insfght-these are the ingre-
dients of true dignity.
Lincoln was never "dignified" but he had true
dignity-the dignity of great human soul in init
mate understanding of humankind.
Simplicity is dignity. The wisest, the truest of
men and women don't have to put on airs to secure
recognition of their worth.

men is apt to aid in the administration of real

Wet" and Dry" Editor:
Whisky is the cause of
two-thirds of the deaths of
men on the railroads. It is
the cause of lots of the
worse deeds committed.
Men drink to give them
nerve. to make them bold,
to fight. to kill, to insult.
Whisky is the cause of many
broken-hearted wives and
and mothers, and half
starved, half-naked children.
Some men are kind until
they drink, then they are
worse than brutes, as they
have no control over them
selves. IL they could not
get whisky so easily they
would spend their money
for food, which is a bless
ing to man. Come now,
you women suffragettes,
now is your time to vote for
a dry town. There would
be more happy homes and
larger bank accounts il men
could not get whisky.
Less men would be with
out work, for so many can
not hold a job because they
drink.

a wet town is the best for
business men. A man
doesn't take a drink IL he
doesn't want 1t. Neither

you close a town they get 10

to where IL can place hu-
