Georgia Peaches Begin
Their Annual Invasion
OF Northern Markets

The annual invasion of New York by
the Georgia peach crop began the past
week, and 25 cars of southern beauties
are now on the metropolitan market, or
en- route. They are of the Mayflower
variety. and are unusually large and
finely colored.
These shipments have been made by
the Georgia Fruit Exchange, and Cen
eral Manager B. J. Christman announces
that the exchange expects to move a
total of one hundred cars of the May
flower variety within three weeks.
Although the first cars moved on con-
signment, and prices have not yet been
announced, the prospect is for a new
high level for the Georgia fruit. The
forecast for the entire season is for ex-
cellent prices, also. and Georgia peach
growers are anticipating one of Their
most prosperous years.
Within a month, the flood-tide of
the crop will be under way, and will
continue until the first of August, when
a total of 1000 cars is expected to be
moved. These will be widely distribut-
ed by the Georgia Fruit Exchange, so
that there will be no congestion at any
point.
The weather conditions continue ex-
cellent. With an even break in condi-
tions during the next few days, the
main peach movement will be taken I'M
der the most favorable circumstances.

COTTON PRICE FIXING BILL
BY GEORGIANS
Delegation Satisfied That Pas
sage of Such a Measure
Is Not Expected
BY THEODORE FILLER

WASHINGTON, d. c., May IL
Convinced that no legislation is to be
attempted at this session of congress to
fix the price of cotton. delegation of
Georgians appointed by the recent farm
ers' convention at Atlanta to come to
Washington in opposition to the Emer-
son cotton price bilP' left for home
today.
AS previously pointed out in Journal
dispatches, there is practically no pros
pect of consideration of any cotton price
bill at this session of congress. In fact,
unless the president shall declare such
legislation absolutely necessary, there
will be no such legislation during the
war. Only strong administration sup
port could bring about a serious dis
cussion of the law to interfere with
the natural mandate of supply and de-
mand as related to the south's staple
product.
The Georgia delegation conferred
while here with Congressman Gordon
Lee, the Georgia member of the house
agricultural committee. and other Geor-
gia congressman regarding the Emerson
bill introduced by Representative EN-
erson, an Ohio Republican. The dele
cation was informed that no legisla-
ton would be framed without hearing
the side of the cotton growers nor was
it likely that the matter would come
up at all at this session.
The delegation named at the farmers
convention at Atlanta to come to Wash
ington to protest against the Emerson
bill included ]. H. Mills, state president
of the Farmers Union; A. w. Evans, of
Sandersville, and Former Senator A. H.
Boykin, of Sylvania.
The alarm of the farmers representa-
tiveS is substantially groundlesS and it
is a hundred to one shot that no legis-
lation is in prospect fixing the price
of cotton directly or indirectly.

CLARK FIRES OPENING
GUN FOR DEMOCRATS
Party Will Stand Firmly and
TriumphantIy on Record,
Not Promises

FORT WAYNE, Ind, May 11.-As-
esrting that het Democrats will lstand
firmly and triumphantly on their rec
ord-not upon promises, but upon monu-
mental things accomplished"-Cha
Clark. speaker of the house, here to-
night fired his party's opening gun in
the coming campaign to re-elect a De-
mocratic congress.
The recent speech Of Republican Floor
Leader Gillett IN New York indicates
that the Republicans are preparing to
assault our positions all along the line,
and that we must fight to win" he
warned his audience of Indiana Demo-
Gratis.
Clark said the real fight in the COM
ing election will be to gain control of
the house. Although 35 senators must
be elected, he believes there is no
chance for the Republicans to win
there
UNFOLDING loyalty the record Ct his
rival for the presidency, Clark appeal
ed for a Democratic house so as to pro-
vide the best possible teamwork in
this titanic war"
why should the American voters in
ject discord into the various parts of
the governmental machinery when the
utmost harmony should prevail in this
awful crisis of our affairs-indeed of
the whole worlds affairs-when repre-
sentative government is at stake?
do not believe they will be so unwise,
and confidently expect that the
next house will be democratic to back
I'D a Democratic administration in the
most stupendous task ever undertaken"
Clark then recited the achievements
of the Democratic congress, mentioning
the tariff bill, the income tax, which
he predicted is here to stay as 1.-The
fairest tax ever levied" The federal
reserve bank act which has done away
with panics, the farm loan banks, the
opening cd of Alaskan resources, the
federal trade commission bill, and the
shipping board, besides the necessary
war legislation.
I'm four brief years we placed upon
the statute book more constructive leg
islation than the Republicans enacted
in two decades" the speaker said. BE
fore we got in the Republicans cried
loudly we could do nothing. Now they
wildly vociferate we are doing too
much
ours is a magnificent record, which
anybody save a stark idiot can easily
and successfully defend Upon that
unCqualled record we confidently ap-
peal to the grand inquest of the nation
in the coming campaign"
