simply has the goods OMEN when 1t
comes to taking care Of the principal
pride to us and ours. No business
man can measure the good it does
in bringing business to Cordele. No
resident of the county can we'll esti-
mate the aid it lends to development
of the county and the enhancement of
intercommunication among our peo-
pie
While others are complaining, we
are ION the job" II our commission
ers and our people could see all the
kicking that is going on through the
newspapers about the road in other
sections of the state, they could appre-
ciate their own good roads more than
ever. We really have something to
appreciate in our splendid system of
reads. The good work is making us
look all the more like a really pro-
eressive people. First thing anybody
krows all Georgia on the outside will
have us put down in the column of
vide awake hustlers,-exactly where
we belong.
Now there is one little help the peo-
rIe may render that will prove won
derfully encouraging to the commits
sioners. If they will be patient about
all those roads until they can be
opened up and worked properly, the
last one of them will be properly cared
for Our people should be careful
about requesting more new roads at
the present time. There is little to
be lost in the impatient effort to pull
the road force about from one place
to another before any one piece of
work has been finished Crisp can
we'll afford to back up the good work.
We are far ahead of other richer coun-
ties in Georgia in this respect.

COMB SAGE TEA
INTO GRAY HAIR
DARKENS BEAUTIFULLY AND RE-
SOTRES ITS NATURAL COLOR
AND LUSTRE AT ONCE.

Common garden sage brewed into
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautiful dark and luxuri-
ant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
rhur recipe at home, though, is trou-
hlesome. An easier way is to get the
ready-to-use preparation impovred by
the addition of other ingredients, cost
ing about so cents large bottle, at
drug stores, known as "Wyeths Sage
and Sulphur Compound" thus avoid
ing a lot of muss.
While gray, faded hair is not sinful,
we all desire to retain our youthful
appearance and aitractiveness. By
Gardening your hair with Wyeth'S
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
AN tell, because it does it no natural
ly, so evenly. You just dampen a
| seCnee or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at tune; by morning
all gre" hairs have disappeared. After
another application or two your hair
becomes beautiful dark, glossy, soft
anG luxuriant and you appear years
younger. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is delightful toilet re
ouisite. 1t is not intended for the
cure, mitigation of prevention of dis
ease.

CERTAIN PUNISHMENT.

Those of us who have been watching
in the sections and COM
munities where Tom Watson has been
worshipped now have fullest opportun-
ity to see the evil effects of his teach
ings. He is facing destruction him
self still flinging venom at the gov
eminent for enforcing the conscrip-
ticn act to secure the armies for re-
sisiting Germany And over the very
sections where his publications have
found root among the illiterate, the
trouble is being started.
This country is going to brook no
foolish conduct of the Watson
Stacker Whether this be pleasing
news or not, it is nevertheless true
When somebody pays the death pen,
atty for resisting, it is going to change
the coloring of all the atmosphere in
the homes where Tom Watson's litera
ture takes the place of all other read
ing
Congressman Adamson's advice to
his slackers was to volunteer and
save pride Those who would be slack
crs, if they were to get the very thing
they are asking for, would have no ar
my with which to- resist Germany's
assaults. Was ever a nation at wal
with any enemy and yet have no ar
my? That would be our plight.
And that is a plight in which Ger
many is not going to find your Uncle
| Samuel. The Stacker and the patriot
are both going to war when the ordel
is given,-and poor friend Watson
must stop urging resistance to the sc
lective draft or else there is certain
punishment awaiting him.

plant; IL you want to prevent the cor
porate interests that now control the
electric lighting properties here from
forever sealing your doom and pass
ing this fine public utility beyond
your reach, be up and doing. Tell your
representative you still want the op-
portunity some day to own your own
light plant. Tell him that you don't
want this property right to slip out
of your hands. Tell him to vote
against this law.
This bill restraining municipalities
from operating public utilities, is the
most vicious piece of legislation of re-
cent years. 1t is fathered by the cleo
trical power company trust, operating
throughout the state. 1t is directly
aimed at the municipal corporation
and it amounts to an effort to stifle
competition from municipality owned
utilities, the power companies well
knowing that they cannot compete
with any well regulated and properly
operated municipal plant.
The Bill covers by its terms all pub
lie utilities-like gas. electric light
and telephone companies. 1t in effect,
prohibits any municipality from enter
ing into the field-eyen to light it's
own streets-w where one Of the power
companies is in operation anywhere
in the district, no matter how badly
the public is being served nor how
much the citizens of the municipality
desire it, unless the approval of COM
mission far removed from the munich
paliIy and its local wants is obtained.
And this can only be secured after
satisfying the commission that the
public convenience or necessity re-
uures the construction, establish
ment or operation of such municipal
plant.
Such showing can be made in any
event only at great expense to the
municipality and only after overcom-
ing the bitter opposition Of the power
full trust
1t violates the great principle that
municipal corporations are created for
purposes of local self government and
deprives them of the right to exercise
a most important function of self gov
eminent.
A strong lobby, maintained by the
power copmanies, is now at work and
unless the public is made aware Of the
seriousness of this move and it's rep
resentatives instructed in the prem
Uses, the bill will be railroaded through
the General Assembly. """"""'" 7'""' 9

A JEALOUS SHERIFF.
rom The Albany Herald.

from Inc Albany Herald.
The sheriff of Lowndes country has
been boarding northbound G. S. & F.
passenger trains at Valdosta and
searching the baggage of suspected
negro bootleggers. 1t is stated in a
Valdosta dispatch that the officer has
bagged good deal of Jacksonville
whiskey, and is in fair way of break
ing up the liquor transportation bust
ness through his county. Conductors
on the trains have ben vigorously op-
posing the sheriff's methods, and one
Of them has had warrants issued
aaginst him, being charged with re-
sisting an officer and with having
liquor on his train. 1t is test case,
according to the sheriff, and will be
tried in a 7Lowndes county court next
| Friday.
1t is for the court to determine
whether the sheriff has exceeded his
authority, though we think that Of
| ficer is to be unqualifiedly com
mended for his zeal in attempting tc
deal with situation which is proving
exceedingly difficult to handle. If all
the sheriffs of Georgia counties Dor
dering on the Florida line were as yea
Gus as the sheriff of Lowndes, a good
Geal less Florida liquor would find its
way into this state from the centers
OF wetness in the Peninsular State.

DEFEAT THIS BILL.

interests operating public utilities

year the people of CCrdole entered a
fight TO own and operate their electric
light plant Handicaps nut the plant
beyond reach. but one day not for off
the people of'Cordele are going back
after that plant and get it, 1t is their
utility, a property right they cannot
barter or sell.
But here is a proposed law that
would prevent us from ever having al
opportunity again to say whether we
will own and operate our electriv ligh'
ing plant. If you are loyal either
and love your town; if you want still
to retain your property rights as

France Ready for Peace,
But Not on German Terms

Doubtless. the attitude OF the gov
ernment helps 70 account for the lack
of discussion in France of the probable
terms of peace or the possibility OF
peace. There is no doubt that the
French people would be very willing TO
write and rewrite the peace treaty
many times over. Who will win the
next battle is the only subject that is
more absorbing than the probable peace
conditions. Tho people are interested
and anxious. They want 70 know when
peace will come and under what condi-
tions. Most important. they want to
know how soon
But the government has resolutely
repressed all such discussions. Discus
sion of the terms of peace might easily
run into discussion of how to get those
terms before the other fellow, and that
might lead to an attempt TO do IL,
and that might lead 10 an armistice, or
something of that nature, with the Ger
man armies still in France. And IL
once the fighting stops IL will be n ter
rble job to get it started again. Peace
discussion now might lead to a German
peace-made with the German armies
holding Belgium and eight French prov
inces. All the peace in the world can
be talked in France after the German
armies are driven over the border. But
not now.
Peace talk Is muzzled. In some direc-
tions the French people are moro EFF
fectively" governed to-day than any
other people in the world. This Is one
of those directions. No subject can
come under public discussion without
the consent of the government. II once
1t got started it might easily go on and
gather a momentum that would over
whelm the government. SO the govern
ment sees that IL never gets started. IL
anything is printed in French news
paper about peace, IL is sure 10 be
something the government wants
printed or considers innocuous. In gem
eral, it is what the government wants
printed, for things that seem innocuous
are often not, and the best rule is to
print only what is positively desirable
and bar things that are only negatively
not undesirable.
For example, the German communicates
are not printed in the French papers,
for they generally contradict either
wholly or in part the French and Eng
lish communicates. It is not considered
desirable that the French people should
be given an opportunity TO suspect the
strict adherence TO facts Of their
authorities. Occasionally the French
papers are allowed 10 paraphrase parts
of the German communicates for pur-
poses Of comparison or ridicule, but that
is all.
