TIFTON, Ga, Feb. 20.-Fire de-
stroyed four Triton business concerns
this afternoon, causing loss of $3.50
900. For a time it looked as if the
whole town would be wiped out. ani
fire companies were brought here from
Cordele, Fitzgerald and Sylvester.
The fire, of undetermined origin,
started on the third floor OF the Oar
nell Dry Goods company. When the
roof of this building fell. flames famed
by a stiff breeze leaped across Second
street and threatened the entire north
ern half of the business section.
Besides cutting the Darnell building,
flames caused heavy damage to the
Ivey Furniture company the Kent
Music and Furniture company and the
Parker Grocery company.
HAZELHURST, Ga, Feb. 20.-A
terrific explosion of undetermined orr

completely destroyed the large mills,
large amount OF cottonseed and
manufactured products of the Carter
Cottonoil company here, causing an
estimated damage of approximately
100000.
The mill had opened all day Satur-
day, but had shut down for Sunday.
The origin of the fire is believed by
the owners of the mill to be incen-
diary. The fire was discovered by a
watchman after the explosion, which
was heard for miles around, took
place. The loss was partially COW
cred by insurance.

FILIBUsTER THREATENED
(Ry Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-COngreSS
has reached its customary near-ad-
journment stage of piled up legislation
of steering" by steering committees,
of lobbying, log-rolling, trading and
threats of flibustering
Only 10 more working days remain
before the final gavels fall and the
capitol is seething with concentrated
effort from within and without, to
pass or defeat the mass of bills be-
fore congress. Murmurs of filbuster-
ing, which have marked the end of
every short" session in March for
years, are heard on both the senate
and house sides, on the former against
the WIinslow bill for partial payment
of government accounts to railroads
and on the house side in the effort to
force action on the packers control
bill.
Emergency Tariff i'm Doubt.
The emergency tariff bill also re-
mains a high point of controversy.
Senate and house conferees are to
meet tomorrow to discuss the score
of amendments added by the senate.
Although Senator Penrose of Pennsyl-
vania once predicted that the bill
would be in conference but a half
hour. any conference agreement still
must be run the gauntlet of both
branches of the congress in the clos
ing days with prompt veto by Pres
ident Wilson predicted generally and
with no prospect of a veto being over
ridden.
A dozen other important bills also
are in conference, including the immi-
grafton restriction legislation passed
yesterday by the senate.
Adoption by the house of the senate
plan is expected. The conference re-
ports will have right of way in the
house this week while the senate is
pressing to rush through the annual
appropriation bills, all of which, ex-
cept a general deficiency bill, have
passed the house. The new house
rules, however. are impeding it's ac-
tion on conference reports.
Soldier Bonus in Grist.
In addition to the grist of legislat tion,
the house Judiciary committee tomor-
row will take UP the impeachment
charges against Federal Judge Lam
dis. The committee will hear Repre-
sentative Welty, democrat, Ohio, who
impeached the jurist. A report on the
case is planned before the end of con-
gress.
Another important committee hear
ing tomorrow is the resumption Of in
quiry into the status of allied loans.
Secretary Houston of the treasury
department will appear again before
the senate judiciary committee in
connection with pending resolutions to
stop further payments without special
authority from congress.
The soldiers bonus bill is to be re-
ported to the senate early this week
by the finance committee, minus the
provision for raising revenues to pay
the bonus, a question TO be left to
the next congress. Republican lead
ers plan to place the modified bill, a
simple authorization of the extra, COM
pensations to service men, but strong
opposition leaves its ultimate fate in
doubt

It is very nat ural to feel a little sore after we are hattened by a steam .roller, but the supporters of the Progress i've ticket ought to be chivalrous enough to laugh with the ladies over their first victory, when they have won so many in the past :; and the defea ed candidates should blame a few wet supporters for giving them an Odious name. and exercise discretion instead of valor when they see a lot of determined ladies stearing a tank their way.

Commemorate Birth of
 Late Senator Jas. H. Berry

At a meeting last evening, at tended by members of the Chap ter, Confederate Veterans and their wives, and Sons of the Confectionery. the local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy in a most fitting manner commemorated the birth of the late. Senator James H. Berry. Southern soldier, jurist and statesman, whose name the Chap ter bears.
 The meeting was held at the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, which was appropriately decorated with flowers and Con- federate flags. Mrs. George M. Crowder, historian of the James H. Berry Chapter, who was in charge of the meeting, led in the impressive ritual of the U. D. C. :, and introduced Mrs. Lora Goolsby, of Ft. Smith, former U. D. C, state historian. who, after paying a most fitting tribute to the life of Senator Berry gave an interest ing short talk on the heroism of Confederate men and women of the sixties, and the accomplish ments and aims of the Daughters of the Confederacy.
 Appropriate and always beautl- ful old songs were sung during the evening by quartette composed of Mrs. J. II. Morgan, Miss kittie Galbreath, Dr. R 0. Pickens and Mir. F. C. Pickcns accom- panied by Miss Elizabeth DeShong.
 Following the meeting at the church a social hour hour was spent at the hospital home of Dr. and Mrs. Chas. H. Cargile.

Pride goeth before destruction. A naughty spirit shall fall. Great men of worldly attraction, All shall hear the judgment call, God s word shall go to all nations, That every creature may hear. Then throughout the whole creation lt must be preached plam and clear Then look for the King oi Glory, Al the right hand of power; Are you waiting for hia glory, Or an unexpected hour The heavens shall just roll away And reveal the great white throne. The wicked shall be turned away, Hut the Lord will own his own.

We are very sorry that so much hard feeling was engendered by the city election Tuesday. We dc not believe that any permanent progress can be made by creating strife among neighbors. But we think much of the trouble was caused more from misunderstood ing of the issue involved, and the political packers, than any real in- tent to do harm. It was gener- ally circulated and believed that certain liquor advocates put one over on the men whose names ap- peared on the Progressive ticket. No one who knows these men be- lieve they are liquor men"o that they would have failed to do their full duty. This was proven by the fact that two candidates on the Progressive ticket was elected. These men misunderstood the iS- sue involved and allowed their names to be put on the ticket op- posed to the first ticket put out, and the ticket endorsed by the ladies who had taken up the fight
 for law enforcement. It was a
 liquor ease that first aroused the ladies. It was the most natural thing in the world to call the op- position ticket the wet ticket.
 The men on that ticket were like the lrishman's bull that tried to butt the locomotive off the track -
 they showed wonderful courage,
 but poor judgment From long experience We have learned 10 side step when a Womans s will is about to clash with ours. and when We see a whole bunch of women on a
