IT'S DUE SAVANNAH.

Savannah wants that shipbuilding
plan that Henry Ford is going to
operate for the government.
No one can present any reason why
Savannah shouldn't have the estab,
lishment, and Savannah can offer a
thousand why it should-every one a
good, convincing reason. too.
Practically the entire state is eager
for Savannah to win this grand prize
OF course, if it doesn't Savannah will
set along all right, prosper as usual
and look the world cheerfully in the
face.
The governemnt has been rather
nice to Atlanta and Macon in the
matter of distributing war benefits
and, looked at in purely selfish light,
Savannah is entitled to something.
But an even more impelling reason
is that Savannah, with its harbor and
terminal facilities and other advant-
ages, can meet every requirement of
the government, and still not exert it.
self
The Times-RecOrder, along with the
great majority of other newspapers Of
the state, wants Savannah to be desig-
mated by Mr. Ford, and if telling that
gentleman what to do in the premises
would settle it, we'd express ourselves
right promptly and freely.

VIM. ]. Harris For Senator.

We are in no degree surprised at
the result of the inquiries sent out
by the Americas Times-Recorder as
to the senatorial situation. 1t goes
to show very plainly that VIM. J. Har-
ris is in the lead in popular favor
for this place Mr. Harris is a man
who will make a safe and valuable
man in that position. The president
has recognized in Mr. Harris a man
os ability and loyalty and has given
him some responsible appointments.
He has been long in public life and
is entirely familiar with the duties
that be would have devolve upon him
as senator
1t seems to US that there is not the
least doubt that VIM. j. Harris can
best unite the support of the state
against Hardwick, who in spite Of his
apprehension will still be able to
muster small amount of strength
and who against badly divided OPP
position might be able TO rally suf-
ficient strength to allow him to return
and disgrace his state for another
term in the Senate. MIR. Murphy
Gambler. the strongest other name
that has been mentioned as a eandi-
date is a splendid and able man, and
there are multitudes of Georgia folks
who would like to vote for him under
other conditions, that are not willing
for him to embarrass the situation by
getting in the race at this time.
We expect to see the race narrow
down to Harris and Hardwick and ex-
pect to see Hardwick beaten to a
frazzle.-Grady County Progress.

has been designated by the governor,

occasion for a patriotic manifesto

THE LOSS OF A T0DDY.

The New York World received a
deathblow when Congress submitted
the national prohibition amendment
to the states, and nothing looks nor
NAL to it any more.
When the South capitulated to
nationwide prohibition it gave up its
control of presidencies and of lsgisla-
ton at Washington" it says, "proba-
bly, forever. Incidentally 1t smashed
the Democratic party"
Goodness gracious, we had no idea
it was as bad as that!
We realized that the passage OF the
amendment not by the South, but by
Congress, with more northern mem
bers, in proportion, voting for it than
southerners-had smashed the liquor

HE'LL BE SHOWN.

Over in the Fourth district they're
electing a congressman today, merely
ratifying in general election the
choice of the recent Democratic pri-
mary.
There is no doubt that W. C. Wright
will be elected. He has some opposi-
ton, but not enough to hurt. Ills 90
ponent is a gentleman whose chief
claim to distinction-or IS it notoriety?
is that he is opposed to the war
plans and purposes of the United
States.
Of course, the intelligent, self-re-
specting citizenry of the district are
not going to elect any such man as
that to congress. They are not going
to reward him with even a decent
vote.
Firm in that belief, The Times-Re-
corder has not been alarmed over the
possibilities of the election, as some
of the newspapers have been. We have
known all the time that W. c. Wright
would be chosen, and that the indie
pendent candidate would be shown, in
the classic language of a former con
gresham, just where he is at"

She manages to scribble a note on a dance program, advising that she is being taken to her Southern home and that it would be extremely dangerous for her uncle to follow. While the mystery of the kidnapping is at its height, a young lawyer of the neighborhood who assisted in the attempted rescue, receives word of the death of the heroine's uncle, and advice that he is the sole heir, pro- viding certain conditions are fulfilled, which require that he journey to the Southern home

FLAME OF YUKON
 COLUMBIA'S BILL

Perhaps no greater picture has ever been produced than the Flame of the Yukon" featuring Dorothy Dalton, Thomas w. Ince's beautiful star. Miss Dalton takes the part of a dance hall harpy. a girl who knows no law, and is called the Flame" It is a story of how mans influence for good brings about the regeneration of a beautiful dance hall girl known throughout the Yukon country as the wickedest woman in Alaska. There are fights galore with excitement and thrills. This picture played one of the leading theaters of Los Ange- les for eight solid weeks and re- turned for eight weeks more to ca pacity houses every night. This speaks the same for every other large city in which the picture had played. The Flame of the Yukon" stands in a class by itself being entirely diff ferent from all other western or Alaskan pictures. It will be shown at the Columbia theater for three days beginning today.

PETROVA PICTURE
 IS HIPS FEATURE

Daughter of Destiny, Madame Petrova's first real picture is at the Hip today. Madame Petrova, long recognized as one of the most gifted women on the stage and screen, re- gently shook the foundations of pie ture making by refusing to submit to a director selected by the con- mercial heads of a corporation by whom she was employed.
 She rebelled because the director as she said, was not capable of telling her how to make picture She said: Why should I, who have spent my whole life on the stage and screen permit man, who perhaps ten months ago was tearing muslin in a dry goods store, tell me how to play a big dramatic scene. I have let them dictate to me until I have seen pictures that I made, going on the screen a disgrace, to not only my self but the whole picture world. so am determined to make pictures myself, pictures that I need not blush to own as my work"
 Today at the Hip this wonderful woman, appears in the first of that resolve. It is called Daughter ot Destiny and some idea of it's mag nificence can be gleaned from the fact that the average feature pie lures costs to make in the neigh. borhood of s3o,e00 Frederick Col. lins, manager of McClures magazine one of the biggest bushes men ir New York, over his own signature states that he spent nearly s137. .oot on Daughter of Destiny" for Pet rova.

 That's why Petrova rebelled and why the First National Circuit of Metropolitan exhibitors took up her first picture, because it is the first real attempt to break the trust that has the picture business by the throat.
 It is said that Daughter of Des- tiny is so unusual. so excellent so marked by its splendor. its wealth of costumes and it's wonderful de- tail. its splendid sets and photography that it will be talked of long after other pictures have been forgotten.
