did not expect favorable action, and.
be it said to the credit of this House,
neither received a favorable report
from any committee. No member oil
the British Parliament introduced any
such bill or resolution reflecting upon
Mr.. Lloyd George No Frenchman
sought in this way or any similar way
to weaken the influence of Mr.. Gle
menceau. No Italian sought in this
wav to lessen the influence of the
Italian premier. But here in this
body such measures were introduced.
and whether prepared for such pur
Dose or not, the effect was to make
the task of Mr.. Wilson more difficult
Mr. Speaker, the course of Ameri
ca during this war under the guiding
hand Of President Wilson, had won
the admiration of the entire world
BY his wise, prudent course, by his
great appeals. which will live forever
it is positively true he brought the
war to an end sooner than the most
hopeful American thought possible.
His messages to Congress were really
messages to the whole world. The in
fluenca for good OF those messages
was felt and acknowledged by men OF
all nations They filled the American
sOldier-whO in truth won the var
with enthusiasm. but they did more
than this: The words of this great
man so influenced the German soldier
that he refused to fight. Mr.. Speaker.

Against this man, who had led
America to heights never attained be

read were directed. While he was
still striving for a just, righteous
treaty one Republican leader would
by resolution declare the presidential
office vacated, and another Republi-
can leader would by act of Congress
declare unlawful even the necessary
absence of the President from the
United States. The bill meant moth
ing if it did not mean to rebuke the
President for going to France.
Can you think of anything more u"
fair? Do you think the people OF
America approve such treatment of
the President? Do you think the
great body Of Independent American
voters, who love fair play even in
politics. will tolerate such treatment
of the President?
But this is not all. After the Presi
dent returned to America another Re
publican leader actually introduced a
resolution to investigate the tokens OF
appreciation given to the President
while in Europe.

and in other places to discredit the

MISS JONES RESIGNS
AS CHIEF OPERATOR
Leaves Dawson Telephone Company
After Years of Efficient Service.
Succeeded by Mrs. Durham.

Miss Anna Jones, who for several
years has been the efficient and pop
ular chief operator at the telephone
exchange, resigned the position some
weeks ago to become effective Octo-
Der first, and was succeeded by Mrs.
T. L. Durham, who is already well
known in the business world, having
filled different positions of trust.
Mrs. Durham is well euipped for the
responsible duties of chief operator,
having been thoroughly trained in
the work. She also had months of
practical experience in some of the
large cities of Texas before coming
to Georgia three years ago. The
management is fortunate to secure
the services of one so we'll fitted for
the place.
Mrs. Jones has gone to her home
at Winder for a much needed rest.
Since her illness several months ago
she has never fully regained her
strength, and it is on the advice of
her physician that she has given up
all work for the present.

JENNINGS ASKS TO
Be RELIEVED OF DUTY
ROAD SUPERINTENDENT SAYS
PRIVATE AFFAIRS DEMAND
ATTENTION. HAS DONE WELL

For a year or two Road Superin-
tendent Riley w. Jennings has been
thinking of giving up his position
with the county, and he has now ask
ed the board of commissioners to re-
lieve him of duty at as early date
as possible if agreeable with them.
While regretting to give up his work
for the county, Mr.. Jennings says he
is forced to do so by the demands of
| his mercantile and farming interests
at Pleasant Hill, which will require
his full time and attention.
AS the present board of commits
sioners will retire from Office on jan
uary 1st, they will leave the selec-
ton. of Superintendent Jennings sue
cessor to their own successors, and
will employ for the remainder of the
year whoever the new commission
ers may desire. It is understood they
are negotiating with Mr.. VIII. Sim
mons, the superintendent of roads in
Webster county, and that in all prob
ability he will come to Terrell
Mr.. Jennings has been superin-
tendent of roads and warden of con-
victs ten years, and during that time
has made a splendid record. e'has
built many good roads and kept the
highways of the county generally in
excellent condition. He has also been
kind to the prisoners, and looked af-
ter their welfare and comfort. Many
citizens and the men in his charge
will regret his retirement.
In Mr. Simmons, if he takes the
position here, the county will have
one of the best road builders and
most successful workers of convict
labor in the state. He has been en-
gagged in highway construction since
the present system was inaugurated
and has made an enviable reputation
by building some of the best roads
in Georgia.

which clogs the kidney pores so they

the waste and poisons from the blood,
then you get sick. Nearly all rheuma-
tism, headaches, liver trouble, nervous
ness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness,
bladder disorders come from sluggish kid
neys.
The moment you feel dull ache in the
kidneys or your back hurts, or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi'
ment, irregular of passage or attended
by sensation of scalding, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable
pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast for
few days and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia and has been used for
generations to flush clogged kidneys and
stimulate them to activity, also 70 neu-

blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kid

BUCKET BRIGADE
QUENCHED BLAZE
PROMPT ACTION PREVENTED
WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
A DISASTROUS FIRE.

A small blaze on the roof of ne
gro house near the ball ground
brought the fire fighters out about
4 $50 o'clock Thursday afternoon, but
before they reached the scene the
bucket brigade put in some good
work and al danger was over.
A strong wind was blowing at the
time, and the fire alarm caused much
apprehension, as the warehouses and
streets are filled with bales of cot
ton. The prompt action of those near
by probably saved the firemen a diff
ficult job and averted property loss.
The fire company made run Sun
Day night about $50 o'clock to the
warehouse of Lowrey & Davidson.
Smoke from a smouldering bale of
cotton was discovered by a passerby
who turned in the alarm.
