HE HATE

The democrats of Georgia last week nominated
Hugh Dorsey for governor by a rousing majority. Hugh
Dorsey is the man who so relentlessly prosecuted and per-
secuted Leo Frank, and in his campaign for nomination
he commercialized this record. He went up and down the
state asserting with vicious mendacity that certain Jew
ish societies and Yankees in the north" had raised a slush
fund to encompass his defeat and he appealed to all low
ers of the south to rally to his support. The result was
what might have been expected.
A campaign against Jews and northerners could not
be otherwise than a popular one in sodden and benighted
Georgia. and the tricky Dorsey won hands down in the
democratic primary. And victory at the democratic pi-
mary in that state, where republicans are not allowed to
vote, is equivalent to an election. Thus Georgia places
the seal of her sanction and endorsement on one OF the
blacklist and most shameful crimes in all American his
tory.
However. the action is not surprising. We all know
the "forward-1ooking' character of Georgia.

The first session of the Sixtv-fourth congress spent
over 100000 a dav for each of the 245 DAYS of its CON
tinuance, the grand total approximating two billions, its
record for profigacy, wastefulness and wanton extrava-
gance having no parallel in American history. Yet this
was a congress elected on a demand for "a return to
that simplicity and economy which befit a democratic
government

A few years ago, when the Bulgars were on their
backs and Greeks, Serbs and Turks stripped them OF the
spoils of war, Rumania slipped over the line and squatted
on a choice chunk of northern Bulgaria. The operation
developed a continuous sore spot, which lent peculiar zest
to the victorious raid of the Bulgars into Rumanlan ter
ritorv. Reciprocity in land-grabbing approaches a tine
art abroad.

We all distinctly remember that when Pres1dcn' Mi
son sent troops into Mexico he stated that his action was
with Carranza's consent. Vet we now have Carranza
flatly denying ever having granted rlght-ot-Way and de,
handing an enormous indemnity for the INVASION. And
an invasion it really was. When the United States
troops crossed the Mexican border that movement was
tantamOunt to a declaration Of war. And that is not all
A state of war still exists. a war that has already cost MS
more lives than were lost in our war with Spain. Recent
methods of keeping the peace are the most tearSome
this country has ever experienced. And the sad part OF 1t
all is that this peaceful war policy gets us nothing and
piles up a mammoth bill of costs.

CURE FOR IVY POISON
Recipe Which Will Relieve This Poison,
Says Citizen Of lmboden.

Editor cord:-Desiring to re-
lieve a sufferer, am sending you a
tried recipe, which will absolutely
cure poison caused by poison ivy
vine. Each time come in contact
with said vine it poisons me, and
| apply the medicine. 1t cures me
within from "a to 48 hours, owing
to how long | have been affected.
Please send this recipe to your cor
respondent at Corinth and request
him to hand it to Mr.. and Mrs.
w. R. Foreman, whom the cores
pondent says h a an 8-year-old
daughter suffering severely with
poison from ivy vine.
RECIPE
Take five cents worth of sugar of
le8d and put same in four ounces of
water and shake until the mixture
looks like milk. Apply to parts
affected two to four times each day
until cured. The sooner the medi-
cine is applied after one discovers
the blisters on the skin the sooner it
will cure. This mixture is poison,
so keep it out of reach of the child
rem and do not take it internally.
This remedy has been worth very
much to me, as | am so easily
poisoned with ivy vine.
My mother, Mrs. Fannie Brandon
of Poughkeepsie, mailed me a copy
of the Record and in the Corinth
paragraphs | read that the child
mentioned was in much pain, and |
am sending you a recipe which |
know by experience will cure poison
from ivy.
1t might help others if you would
publish this remedy.
Fred E. Brandon.

prosperous and contented.

When we study all these things
over, why not make the dead in
earnest start and get busy; see to
our old laid-out fields, 90 to work,
make them productive, better our
fencing, better our homes by beau
tifying them with walk-ways and
flowers, see to the orchard? There
should be a thousand fruit, berry
and grape orchards hourishing to-
day in this country, where the most
suitable kind of waste land in lay
ing out and doing the owner and
taxpayer no good.
Let US all wake up and get busy
on our roads and the development
of our country. Then we will not
have to wait a lifetime to see a
railroad built through Sharp coun-
ty. Then our merchants and
banks will do three times the
amount of business they do now,
and so it will be with all of us.
Before | close let me make a
suggestion to one and all. In my
honest opinion our editor of the
Sharp County Record is simply an
all-round, plain, flat-footed, straight
FRONT h e-shoulder, broad.gaueed,
bie-hearted man. He is ever ready
and willing to help for the better
ment of mankind and the country
in any honest way. He has been
giving all of us from year to year
twice our moneys worth of good
news, truth and information, and |
will warrant you that it will more
than please him to cheerfully give
space in his good paper to any
farmer or other citizen in which to
express his views on the best
modes of farming for best results
or on good roads.
Let us all tell something to help
each other along life's journey.
Why should not the mothers con.
tribute to the paper also, swapping
ideas, giving advice and expressing
opinions with each otherY This
would prove very helpful to the
mothers and to the boys and girls.
A lasting good could be done in
this way, Then we could all get
to read letters and hear from old
acquaintances, relatives and friends
who are reading the Record, many
OF whom are residing In other
states.
