is the calculated effort to make the farmer
forget how he was buncoed on the Rural

how he was mercilessly pressed by the Fertil-

Rural Credits was one of the measures
which he said was "pending", and which the
Democrats were sure to pass "next session."
All things can be done before election, and at
the neat session.
Only, that particular next session never
gets here
4 ter the election, the Senator is in for six
years; and he can then snap his fingers at
the people, and tell them to go to hi.
The Republicans in the Senate actually
passed the Rural Credits bill, and the Demo-
crats killed 1t en- the House.
That's the official record. The farmers now

The House are all Democratic, all elected be-

Without the farmer vote, they couldn't have

Without those pledges, they wouldn't have
got the farmer vote.
Another election IS approaching!
For three years, the people have waited for
the performance that was promised.
The people have seen this administration
cater to the silver mine owners, to the cotton
gamblers, to the national banks, to the rail-
roads, to the Trusts-to every interest except
that which most needed and most deserved
governmental consideration.
The last chance is now passing, and if the
people do not sternly demand that faith be
kept, politicians will never again hesitate to
make any kind of promise, knowing that it
can be safely broken after the election.

No CLUE TO Ma Ne
OF PRETTY BABY
CHILD ABANDONED IN FRONT OF
ATLANTA HOME-POLIcE
INVESTIGATE.

ATLANTA, May 16.-Mr and Mrs.
w. P Carlton of this city are still
without a clue as to the identity of
the parent or parents of the blue-eyed
baby girl that was abandoned in
front of their home on Lakewood ave-
nue. early yesterday morning. The
Fulton county police. after making
a thorough investigation, express the
opinion that the guilty parties will
never be found.
They planned the Abandonment very
shrewdly. Placing the baby in a
wooden box with plenty of clo;ht 5,
and with the top of the box fastened
on in such way as to give the child
air, they drove up in front of the
Carlton home in an automobile, placed
the box beside the road and drove
away. The baby is apparently sound
physically and the CARTONS have
about decided that they will not be
disappointed if the parents are never
found.
