feat Mississippi Senator.

Jackson, Miss, Aug 12.--President
wilson thru a letter to Myron Mcneil,
an attorney Of Hazelhurst, Miss, has
declared that should the voters Of Mis-
sissippi re-elect Senator James K Var
daman to the United States senate he
would regard their action as a con-
demnation of my administration" as
Senator Vardaman, has been conspi-
cuous among the democrats in the
senate for his opposition to the admin

The presidents letter, made public
here in reply to letter written by
Mcneil follows:
Replying to your letter OF 23rd July

hesitation that venture to express an
opinion about candidates for election,

view my privilege to suggest to voters
OF state what their senator shall be
But on questions Of fact, am at IL
berty to speak. You call my attention
to certain statements made on behalf
OF Senator Vardaman. in which an ef-
fort Is made to create the impression
that I would not regard the return OF
Senator Vardaman to the senate as a
verdict against the present administra-
ton. Such statements are calculated
to put very false face on Senator
Vardaman's candidacy. Senator Var
daman has been conspicuous among
democratic senator's for his opposition

again choose him to represent them.

GEORGIA FAR BEHIND

lhusy Immediately, tell our pdople

The reports to Director Richard
son show that Georgians have pledg-
ed themselves to buy $50, 100000
worth of War Saving Stamps, but
have only bought, SO far, $o,500000
worth. This is an average of about

House, who resides there, urging him
to stop all fairs, circuses and carni-
walls, and to take every other step
within his power to check the spread
OF the death-dealing epidemic. With
these signers were also a number of
ministers and bankers.
The Atlanta ministers are beginning
to complain bitterly that while their
churches have been closed by order
of the local health authorities, the
midway shows at the fair in this city
are allowed to run full blast. They
assert that the solace Of religion and
divine worship are about as much
needed in time of death and dis
tress as rolicking carnival with peo-
pie throwing confetti.
Atlanta theater managers, while
they are not asking to be allowed to
reopen until all danger of the cpl
demic is past, do make complaint
against the amusements which are al
lowed to run at the<fair grounds. The
rule requiring people on the grounds
to wear FLU masks" does not satisfy
them that the spread of the disease
is thereby stopped, and in this they
are supported by many DOCTORS
1t appears to be quite probable that
the Atlanta fair may be stopped be-
fore the end of the week, and that no
other fairs will be allowed by the
state health authorities to open, TN
less their dates come at time when
the epidemic is entirely gone.

NEW LAW WILL MAKE
STATE BANKS SAFER

Atlanta. Ga Oct 18.-The publi.
cation OF the fifteen proposed con-
stltutional amendments on separate
ballot for the general election to be
held November E will make it much
simpler and easier for the voters OF
the state to keep these matters entire
ly distince from the list of candidates
to be voted on. 1t has been decided
to print the constitutional amend
ments separately, at the expense OF
the state, in order to facilitate the
voting in this way
One of the most important of all
the amendments to be voted on is
the one entitled amendment to Par
agraph 2, section 2, Article 5 of the
Constitution, fixing Treasurers' salary
and clerical expenses of the office"
The ratification of this amendment
will enable the legislature to provide
Tor a more thorough and frequent
inspection Of state banks, which bank
erS and business men generally re-
gard as an urgent necessity. The
examination of state banks was load
ed on the state treasurer as an extra
duty or sort of side line incidentl to
the regular work of the office. The
result is that Georgia bank examina-
tons are not famous for their thor
oughness and there have been more
bank failures in Georgia than there
ought to be. National banks are fire,
quently and thoroughly examined by
agents OF the treasury department.
Depositors in Georgia safe banks are
entitled to as much protection as the
federal government gives to national
bank depositors. They will get it if
the above amendment is ratified.

NEW. ATLANTA JUDGE
IS POPULAR LAWYER

ATLANTA.-The action of the
Democratic State executive commit
tee in declaring John D. Humphries
the nominee of the primary for judge
of the criminal division of Fulton
superior court has been received with
general satisfaction in Atlanta.
Although the friends of Judge Ben
H. Hill, who was defeated by Mr.
HUMPHREYS by majority of twentf-
one votes, gave him their active and
vigorous support, quite number OF
his leading supporters were not in ia
vor of his demand for recount OF
the ballots, followed by his formal
contest of the primary election.
1t was generally believed here that
second primary, as proposed by
Judge Hills supporters in the state
executive committee, would have re-
suited III the nomination of Mr.
HUMPHREYS by very large majority
as the general feeling here was that
Judge Hill ought to abide by the
count of the Democratic managers
and election clerks.
Mr.. HUMPHREYS is a prominent and
popular Atlanta lawyer who resides in
the suburb of Hapeville, of which he
has been mayor. He is man of high
character and standing whom none of
Judge Hills friends criticised in any
way even in the heat of the campaign.
