Dont's For The Cotton Growers.

Don't be mislead into selling your
cotton at five or six cents pounds,
rs yon were last fall, by political
and other pessimists.
Don't get frightened and rush
your cotton to market except to the
extent that you have to sell it to
meet your financial obligations, for
the undue crowding Of cotton on the
market plays into the hands of the
spectators who by the tactics now
being employed would break down
The price of your cotton and enable
them to buy it to their profit and
to your loss, as they did last year.
Don't expect either this Govern
ment or any other to buy your cot
ton. The Government has no more
right to buy cotton than than to buy
grain or hogs.
Don't look for any uneconomiC
and impossible legislation in behalf
Of cotton, for most Of the theories
advanced have bordered on assininl-
ty, and some of them have quit

A Tribute to Georgia

The following tribute to Georgia
was inspired by the reading Of the
Massachusetts, newspaper uttean-
ces in regard to Georgia, because Of
the hanging Of Leo Frank by a
party Of unknown men.
Come Massachusetts, Come down
here to our sunny Southland!
Come to Georgia, the grand old
Empire State Of the South. Come
and enhale her pure air. kissed by
the dews Of Heaven, and it will do
you good.
Your system is all out of order,
your constitution run down, and u
change wifi help you. Come while
your head is burning, and let the
southern breezes fan your brow.
Georgia is grand old state, Massa-
chusetts, a grand old statcl Her
gates are always open, and ali who
enter love her, If you cannot 10
cate her, look ON your map and
you will soon find her. But do not
pronounce her name with a hard G,
as some of you do, for it is just
sweet and easy flowing Georgia.
Come and stay till your fever has
dated, your strength returned, and
behold her grandeur. See and
learn more about her and you will
then know that the price Of virtue
is far above rubies. So come Mas
5achusetts, we invite you to come.

We present to you with this is

ton Of the Lee County Journal. 1t
vas after some hesitation that we
decided to get out this issue, hut
making up our minds to do 50, we
went Into it to make it a success.
If we lave failed it has been no
fault Of ours. We have spared no
expense that we were able to go,
time or pains, in trying to make it
a creditable edition. 1t is quite an
undertaking for newspaper pub
lished in city or county without
the aid OF Board of Trade or
Chamber Of Commerce to raise the
funds from donations or to secure
advertising patronage sufficient to
get out such IN issue, and while we
appreciate the contributions re-
ceived and the patronage extendt d /,
same was not sufficient to make the
issue financial success to the man
agement, but il the issue will ar
swer the purpose it i intended for
/ to boost the county in general
and bring future results for the
county's interest, we feel in amcas-
IRE repaid for the work we have
gone to in getting out the issue.
The issue of course is subject tn
your criticism, and we submit it to
you, asking you to kindly look over
the errors that may have occurred
as it is almost impossible to pre-
vent some occurring in getting ont
an issue OF this size. We trust,
however, that it will will answer
our purpose and be worth some
thing for the future for the entire

reached that stage.
Don't for a moment think that
you can barter your honor and your
soul and shape your convictions as
to right or wrong in world affairs
for the price of a bale Of cotton.
Don't seek to blackmail OF her
countries by threatening retaliation
because their work may interfere
with the temporary selling price Of
your cotton.
Don't permit politicians or other
to hold you up before the world as
willing to accept a bride, and to
shape your judgment of right and
wrong in human affairs by the
price thot this country or that might
be willing to pay for your cotton.
Don't forget that though you
have raised more cotton than the
South ought to lave produced /,
there is an intrinsic value i'll cotton
which cannot be permanently des-
troyed.
Don't forget that you can carry
J your cotton for years without its
detesioration, and that the time will
come, unless The South continues to
grow more cotton than the world
demands when every bale Of cotton
will be needed at good price.
Don't defraud your creditors by
refusing to sell cotton to meet YOU
obligations, but when you have sold
enough to pay your debts, don't
forget that the balance is yours tc
hold until doomsday if you please,
and await the time when the world
will pay your price for it.
Don't, above all else, permit
yourself to be misled into believing
that your cotton is worth more than
your honor; that your cotton must
set your standard Of morals in
studying world affairs.
Don't forget that he who poses
the cotton growers of the South be-
fore the world as beggars asking
aims, or as regarding q bale Of cot
ton of more value than human life,
or the price Of a pound Of cotton
more to be considered than indivI-
dual and national honor, is the
worst enemy which the South has
