PROGRAM GOES
THROUGH; NOT
PROTEST RAISED
Great Ovation Given
Watson and Hardwick
Bv Delegates

MACON, Oct. 25.-(Special. -
With the wheels we'll creased and not
voice raised in opposition to any
procedure, the state convention met
today, transacted its business and ad-
journed at single session. The con-
vention opened at 10 o'clock central
time and was over by 2. Thea fea-
lures were the tremendous ovations
given Thomas E. Watson and Thomas
w. Hardwick, when formally nomi-
mated and accepted, and the resolu-
tions, which followed closely the
trend of those adopted at the May
convention, condemning the League
of Nations.
The resolutions however, declared
for the election of every Democrat
nominated, regardless of differences
on some matters, denounced the pol
icy of the secretary of the treasury
and the federal reserve board for al
legged curtailment of credit to agri
cultural interests, and instructed the
state representative in congress to
oppose any political alliances with
other nations.
The convention made by j. j.
Flynt, who was temporary chairman,
permanent; and w. J. Vereen, of
Moultrie, chairman of the new state
committee The new state commit
tee is composed of two members at
large from each district, named by
the new chairman, and four from
each district named by the conven-
tion. An advisory committee of IA
women, two at large and one from
each district, with equal voting pow
er on the committee will be named by
the chairman, was created. The
third district membership on the
committee follows:
At large-Judge J. H. Horton, of
Ben Hill; w. H. Gurr, of Terrell
county For the district-B. K.
Brooks, Macon; Alton Cogdell, Sum-
ter; A. G. King Clay county; Myer
Goldberg, Ben Hill.
In his speech Of acceptance Mr..
Hardwick made an excellent impress
sion. Pointing to a newly cut
broom lying on the stage, he Said he
intended to sweep the state house as
clean He closed with a touching
expression of thanks to those who
had fought, suffered, lost and won
with him.
Mr.. Watson was in good voice and
high spirits, and he talked only Is
minutes. He pledged himself at the
conclusion like the ancient mariner
as long as he kept In this office to
hold the rudder true.
In the Sumter seats in the Third
district session were G. W. Riley, n.
A. Ray, Frank P. Harold, W. A.
Dodson, Walker delegates; also occu-
pying seats with them by courtesy
were Tom Hudson, Alton Cpgdell
and DR.. Peter Bahnsen. About the
convention elsewhere were w. t
McMath, Frank Payne, Stephen Pace
and ]. E. Hightower.
Mr.. Harold who had been drawn
for federal grand jury duty here
this morning, luckily missed the days
panel and did not have to ask to be
excused.

FEVERISH INTEREST IN
DEVELOPMENTS AT CORK.

CORK, Oct. 25.-(By Associated
Press ss.)-Feverish interest in possible
developments caused by the death of
Lord Mayo MacSwiney of this city
this morning mingled with the grief
into which the news of his death has
plunged south Ireland. Although peO-
pie here appear stressed to the high
est degree of bitterness it is regard
ed as extremely improbable that
there will be any outbreaks or disor-
derly demonstration in this city. 1t
is expected, however, that there will
be a considerable extension of guer-
lila warfare against the police and
military forces. Cork jail, where a
number of hunger strikers are in a
grave condition, is guarded inside
and out by soldiers equipped with
machine guns.

Hurts Children.

too much is the ease with which the
child OF today acquires money from its
parents,

THE child wants 1t, doesn't II? And
I'm able to give it, am | not? Well,
where does the kick come in?'

father, who does not seem to realize
that in giving such ridiculous sums to
his children, he Is sowing seeds OF fu-

money and when that time comes the

pie, according to bankers. They say
