SOUTH GEORGIA is FORGING
AHEAD

From the Triton Gazette: There is
much more for South Georgia in the
re-grouping of the counties of the
state to create new senatorial districts
than was generally supposed.
Under the bill there will be Is SEN
atorial districts in South Georgia and
70 in orth Georgia The creation of
new counties will give South Georgia
one more, making 20. This will give
this section of the state equal repres-
entation in the upper house.
What this will mean we may gather
from the fact that OF the three mil
lion dollars appropriated fo- state in
situations by the last sessio of the
Legislature only $4,000 comes to
South Georgia. That early all the
states institutions are i'll the northern
part is not entirely due to favoritism
While SO much of South Georgia was
undeveloped North Georgia had the
advantage in wealth and population
Therefore, when a state institution
was to be located very naturally she
took it. These conditions have
changed. South Georgia now pays
over half the taxes of the state and
within few years, with her rapid de.
velopment, will have the bulk Of the
