WHAT A GEORGIA LADY SAID TO
JOHN MI. SLATON.


Dear Sir: During the Inauguration
ceremony the other day a striking in
cident occurred which f3s not been
mentioned in the local papers, and
it goes without saying that it never
will be.
1t seemed to be the sense of the
people that it was the Inauguration
of Nat Harris. Consequently there
was no disorder, except that from
floor to dome every move or remark
made by Slaton produced a storm Of
Kisses that swept the place like a
gale. The contrast between the wild
enthusiasm with which Harris was
greeted, and the cold, deliberate con-
tempt poured out upon Slaton, was
carried out from start to the latter's
crushing finish. So soon as Harris
had been indicted into Office, and
seated himself after his speech, a
lady, who had been sitting near the
rostrum, suddenly mounted the steps,
took possession of the platform, and
facing Slaton directly, said:
'Now that you are private citi-
zen, in the name of the womanhood
of Georgia, I call you traitor and
bastard And if there is manhood
enough in Georgia they will attend
to your case, you Judas.
Slaton had first looked up with
that pathetic eagerness he showed
towards any stray individual who
gave him a nod of recognition, but
at her words he dropped and he
seemed fairly to cringe. The gentle
men on the rostrum had listened in
silence, but as the lady passed quietly
down, one of the guard of honor
shook hands most cordially with her,
and there seemed to be no disap-
prevail A member of the Senate,
sitting on the rostrum, said to the
lady: "While the Legislature is in
session, you had better retire.
what is that to me-" replied the
lady. ''Who pays the bill? | will
pass out at my leisure"
1 am personally acquainted with
this lady, who is well known through
out the State. In my opinion she
deserves the sincere thanks Of the
women throughout the State of Geor-
gia for her fearless voicing of their
sentiments.
Yours very truly,
Ga. B. 2. WOOTEN.

PEOPLE WHO ELECTED YOU,

Dear Sir: I quote you copy wire
message to Gov Nat E. Harris this
afternoon, which speaks for itself:
''This is to inform you that
your friends and supporters
here earnestly protest against
the maintenance of a guard
around the premises of Jack
Slaton at the expense of the tax
payers of the State"
Your friend and admirer,

"BATTLE CRY OF PEACE"

Proves Picture Play With a Mission
to the People.
The picture, "The Battle Cry of
Peace" is pictorial propaganda call
ing to arms defenseless America. 1t is
a plea against war, not for war, urging
as it's battle cry preparedness for
war in time of peace.
1.-The Battle Cry of Peace is photo
spectacle with mission. 1t was writ
ten and produced by J. Stuart Black
ton, president of the Vitagraph Com
pany, in an effort to wake in every
American a desire to protect his loved
ones. The story, based on Hudson
Maxim's book, "Defenseless America"
is educational in it's description of SUBJ
marines, earoplanes. torpedo boats and
other implements of warfare. 1t COM
pares America to other countries and
shows with a clearness the compare
tive size of our army and navy. Hud-
son Maxim appears, and by means Of
small models illustrates on the screen
the needs of our country.
A love theme accompanies Mr.. Max
inns instructive lecture.
Captain Jack Crawford assisted in
the making of the picture both by act
ing and by gathering the various gar
risons that are represented.
Commodore Blackton says those who
say they believe in a certain measure
of preparedness are about as serious
as those who say God bless you, to a
certain extent" He said, that Ford
had amassed a fortune and was now
preparing to deliver it into the hands
of any nation which might desire tC
invade America, by spending money
for peace instead of giving it for navy
appropriations. He also gave man.
prominent people thrust for theil
blindness in not seeing that Americt
needed just now better army and |
stronger navy, instead of declaration
of universal peace.
He said General Grant took witt
him 10000 tons of ammunition an
commissary supplies, but in this .da

also stated he had been informed b
the men in the highest army and nav
circles that one of the large Europea

The highway will be open to any
motor car, and automobile men
claim that any good driver will be
able to make the trip.

Austria, has never been opened to the
automobile.
While there were many difficulties
the construction of this highway was
not a hard task for the modern engi-

to drink Of the mineral waters there.
Amid a profusion of wild flowers,
through groves of pines and aspens,
the highway proceeds. Often, as the
motor climbs, it will be enveloped in
a fieecy cloud. Higher and higher the
