 Bright and Happy

Happy youngsters must be healthy. The digestive organs of children get out of order as readily as do those of their elders, and the result is equally distressing. When the bowels arc ctosged with an accumula- ton os refuse from the stomach the child naturally becomes cross and fretful from the discomfort, and is often punished for tenn per when medical attention is really what Is needed
 The next time your child is cross and unhappy, without ap- parent reason, try giving it Q mild laxative. Dr. CaldweIrs Syrup PepSin is a. mild, pleas ant tasting combination of sim- pie laxative herfcs with pepsin, and Is especially recommended for children because of it's free aon from all opiate or narcotic drugs and its gentle action. It is sold in drug stores every where. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. ". B. Caldwell, 453 Washington St., Monticello. Ills.

PRISON BODY HAS A
REPORT SHOOTING

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 27.-The state
prison commission has received a re-
port of the shooting and subsequent
death of Warden C. B. Gilmore, of Col
Cuitt county. Mr.. Gilmore died from a
wound inflicted by a guard named Ma

Naples made his escape and has not
yet been arrested. His father is well
known in state official circles, having
served in the legislature with Chair
man Dawson of the prison commission,
and with E. L. Rainey, member of the
commission.
The story of the shooting told by
Gilmore, as detailed in the report to
the commission, is that he learned
Guard Naples had permitted one Of
the convicts to go away, and Gilmore,
on his return in the afternoon, was
reprimanding Naples for the action.
Naples took exception to the repri-
mand and some sharp passages ensued
Gilmore said before his death that
when he turned to his buggy to take
the dogs out, Naples shot him in the
back, according to report made to the
commission.

Public sentiment is focusing with in

of delay is helping to bring about the
very result for which it has been nee
sary to wait.
at is, of course, one of the disad-
vantages of popular government that
its central agent can rarely act with
swiftness in foreign matters without
danger of creating internal divisions
and consequent collapse. This is
especially true of our republic, with
its divergent commercial interests in
different sections and its citizenship
largely composed of foreigners, who
are given a voice in their new coun-
try before they have thrown off the
allegiance to their old one.
Mr.. Wilson's opponents set forth
their criticisms without reckoning
with the conditions under which he
has labored. Before ascribing oul
failure to please European ideals, they
sl'ould ask themselves if any other
course could have made a better

''In our opinion Mr.. Wilson's for.

dicious. Any other course would as
srredly have split our American peo
pie into a state of confusion and di

ment in the unfortunate position O

THE W. & A. COMMISSION

Anent the cltlZeuS Composing IHe
new w. & A. commission the Valdos
ia Times has the following interest
ing editorial
1.-The Georgia legislature may have
fallen far short of what it should
have been in some things, but we do
not think that anybody can safely
criticise it for the commission which
it created to handle the Western &
Atlanta railroad lease. The legisla-
ture might have gotten other men
who would serve the state just as
well, but we doubt if it could have
named men who will give the state
ADLER or more honest service.
1.-THE creation of the commission
GENES after considerable discussion
10 both branches of the general as
sembly. The senate and house were
Unable to agree, even after these
two branches had reconciled the diff
f,rences between their own mem
bers. The danger which confronted
the state was that a political com
mission would be appointed that
men would be chosen because of
their pull" rather than on account
OF their fitness for the place. An
agreement was finally reached, how
ever, fixing the commissions mem
bership as follows:
1.-THE governor, n E. Harris.
Chairman of the railroad commits
sion, C. Murphy Gambler.
Three citizens, Messrs. G. Gunby,
Jordan, Of Columbus; Judson l..
Hand, of Pelham, and Fuller E.
galloway ,OL LdGTdnSe.
Counsel for the commission, Will
liam A. Wimbish.
There is not a man on the COM
mission who is not well qualified for
tie work which it will have to do.
Governor Harris is as we'll equipped
as any man in Georgia, both in the
knowledge of the law and the af-
fairs of the states property, to say
nothing of the fact that the govern
or is a successful business man.
Chairman Murphy Gambler, of the
railroad commission, understands
the work to be done from "a" to 81
Mr.. Gunby Jordan is an experienced
and successful business man who
will take pride in the service he may
render to the state. Mr.. Fuller Cal
laWay is also a successful business
man and former member of the rail-
read commission, who adds strength
to the commission just named. Mr..
j. L. Hand of Pelham, is another
strong man. He has served the state
il both houses and will be an eff
cient member of the W. & A. board.
Mr. W. A. Wimbish, who was
named as counsel for the commits
sion, is good man for that place.
He has been general counsel for the
Western & Atlantic railroad for 10
years or more and there is no man
more wamiliar with the roads af-
fairs. If The Times regarded if as a
political commission" it might not
warm up to it so readily, but the
legislature evidently looked above
politics in creating it.
The legislature did good service
t. the state in aiming the men who
are to have charge of the states
most valuable property and Georgia
IL to be congratulated on the re-
suit"
