That representatives for the
constitutional convention should
be selected without factionism is
being almost unanimously agreed
upon throughout Louisiana and so
far it is not believed that there
will be contests for the honor in
many of the parishes. Several
have practically agreed to dispense
with the formality of q primary
thus saving the parish q nice sum
and ut the same time conserving
the political interests satisfactorily
and economically.

This matter of corn raising as a
science is getting drawn to finer
point from season to season and a
slight idea of what strides the
cultivation of this mDortant grain
has made can be gained from the
knowledge compiled by staticians
who claim that in 1856. it took
274 minutes of labor to raise 9
bushel of corn and in 1841, thi:
had been reduced to Al minutes
and it takes much less time now

Dangers of a Cold.

Do you know that of all the minor
ailments colds are by far the most dam
gerous? 1t is not the colds themselves
that you need to fear, but the serious
diseases that they so often lead to.
For that reason every cold should be
gotten rid of with the least possible
delay. To accomplish this you will
find hamberlain's o1g1 Randy of
great help to you. 1t loosens a cold,
relieves the lungs, aids expectoration
and enables the system to throw off
the cold. For sale by all druggists.

Not only Georgia, but the whole
country will honor Governor
Slaton as an official whose courage
and high regard for his public
duty will make his name stand out
throughout the ages. as one who
saved his State from an everlast-
ing stain without regard 10 the
consequences to his own political
ambition.
The city and State of Georgia
stood against the whole country
that rose en- masse against the
sentence of death imposed upon
Leo Frank, who did not believe
had had fair opportunity to
prove his innocence under the
circumstances surrounding his
trial, and Gov. Station Just at the
hour fixed by his predecessor for
the execution, signed the order for
+, Communication and tho Frank is
sentenced to hard labor fer the
rest of his life, his friends will
now have the opportunity to
secure proof of his innocenca IL he
is innocent, and at least save
Georgia from the ignominv and
shame that would have stained her
fair name for ever and aye.
The whole outside world APP
plauds this act of Gov. Staten and
in time his people will rise to the
height of this man and realizing
what he has done, feel proud to
call him their own and there will
be no gift within their power,
good enough for him.
