ON THE WING.

According to Hugh NJ. Dorsey, the
third candidate to enter the race for
governor of Georgia, he will soon
have some positive views on differ
cnt matters to give to the people of
Georgia. The people have some posi-
tive views which we hardly think will
coincide with the prosecuting at
torney.
1t was hard to realize that Dorsey
would run and much harder that he
would not run. On September 18th
the citizens of this state will speak
their wishes, and according to their
actions and judgement in the past we
hardly think they will vary from their
old time form, which means that
Dorsey's defeat is foregone.
But speaking of his candidacy he
has more vulnerable spots than any
other public man which has seen fit to
raise his head above the water level.
A sitter would hold more water.
Dorsey's' two claims to prominence
III Georgia can be laid at the Frank
case and his L. & N. connection. Both
are honorable in their way, but only
demagogue would seek to use them
i'll the way which Dorsey seems to be
bent
1t is said that Atlanta politicians
can't understand why Frank Hooper
does not endurance, and for the ben
eft Of those people who are not fam
liar with Dorsey and Hooper, we
might say that the latter was the
brains of the Frank prosecution. Mr..
Hooper is a former Americas attorney
and it is not contradicted that he was
the law in the case. Still, Mr.. Hooper
has not seen fit to place his candidacy
for governor before the people of the
state.
Dorsey will undoubtedly give
trouble in some 0uarters. Int whom
the grand finale comes he will be
rolled under an avalanche of Georgia
expressions.

WHOLESALE SLAUGHTER OF
FLIES IS NEW MET H0D

ATLANTA, Ga, May 1O.-The old
method Of killing flies with fly swat
tiers, which was highly efficient so far
as it went, has given way in Atlanta
TO wholesale slaughtering of flies by
means of large fly traps.

To the danger of the fly as a conveyor

authorities have succeeding in in

old alike wholesome hatred of the

The department has now abandoned
the festive fly swatter and installed in
moth the business and residential

DEVELOPING THE SOUTH.

The resources of the South have
been brought out into the light of pub
lie notice and consideration more in
the past few years than in several de-
cades before. That this statement is
true no one will deny who has given
thought to the matter, or who has
watched the rapid development made
in recent years. Progress spelled with
big ?, it seems has inspired our
people to an awakening over the nat
ufal resources and possibilities of our
Southland that is nothing short of
marvellous.
For years we had gone along in that
Rip Van Wrinkle sleep sort of fashion.
realizing little of what we had in
hand and at our very doors. In a short
period of time, however, our eyes have
been made to open and at last we are
coming to grasp the situation, are
alive to our wonderful possibilities and
pushing along to the point where the
South will be recognized for what she
Is, the most wonderful and resource
ful section of the new world.
People from all parts of the world
are coming into our confines. And
from the other sections of our own
country they are drifting southwark
drawn hither by the glowing reports
lof the wonderful possibilities and
splendid opportunities to be had here.
Everything seems to be conspirring in
cur favor. Those attending big
gatherings and conventions in the
South go away singing her praises,
and especially those of Georgia. Her
many natural advantages and resourc-
es, agricultural. mineral and otherwise
are Landed in the highest terms by all
who come and see.
Recently big agricultural meeting
and sociological council was held in
New Orleans. A writer in the Chris
tian Science Monitor who attended
these meetings says:
When it is considered that the
South of the United States has taken
longer and surer steps in the last two
years than ever before toward insur-
lug to itself industrial independence,
BY oyerthrowing the domination of the
single crop and taking widely to d.
versification in production, it will, we
believe. be more generally realized
that the recent meeting in New Orleans
of the Southern Agricultural Associa-
ton and the Southern Industrial
Council should constitute an epoch
making event in that section of the
republic. These meetings have

the gray hair disappears; but what
