FIRST WOMAN
IN j. S. SENATE
WINS. VICTORY
No Dissenting Voice

Mrs. w. H. FELTON,, the grand
old lady of Georgia." won her
fight for a seat for a day as the
first woman senator.
Without objection from any
senator, but after a long delay
during which the status of her
appointment to the senate was
reviewed in the light of prece
dents, Mrs. FELTON, took the oath
of office at the vice presidents
desk and wrote her name in the
Senate membership book.
I. Senator For. a Day.
Mrs. FELTON,, upon inscribing
her name on the senate roll, be-
came a fullf1edged senator, but
only for a day, as Senator-elect
Walter F. George, chosen her
successor November Z, plans to
claim his seat tomorrow.
Senator FELTON, was assigned
the seat Of former Senator Wat
son, OF Georgia, whom she was
appointed to succeed. Senator
elect George, however, took pos
session of Senator Watson's Of
flee.
Without lunch Mrs. FELTON, re-
mained for some time attending
senate procedure.
And thus has Georgia the dis
.tinction of furnishing the first
woman United States Senator,
an honor which was we'll bestow-
ed and gracefully borne by
Grandma FELTON,, the Grand Old
Woman Of Georgia, : who,
though 81 years oIdis eyer alert
for that service for her fellow
man that has thus made her a
national figure for MANY years
past.

Peach County
Amendment Beaten
By 1000 Votes

Though the officials returns
have been rather slow in leaking
in and out Of the Secretary OF
States office, on Monday of this
week Mr.. Wright announced that
returns from the constitutional
amendment submitted to the
people in the general election,
November 7th, are now complete
with the exception of Montgom-
cry county.
These returns show conclusive
" that the proposed new county
of Peach was defeated. With
Montgomery county's vote miss
ing, the vote for Peach county
20, 796 and the vote against the
county was SO, 1872.
This vote, however, does not
seem to satisfy our neighbors
who declare that the fight is
still on and will continue until
they have a new county with
Fort Valley as the county site.

Can Build Road
Thru Smithville
Supreme Court Decides in
Favor of State Highway
Commission in Unique
Case.

That the State Highway De-
partment, in conjunction with
Lee county, 'can build a road
through the town of Smithville
without its consent and against
it's WILL" was the decision rend-
cred Thursday by the supreme
court in a case originating in a
dispute between these parties
regarding a location in the town.
Smithville wanted the highway
to follow the route of the old
Dixie Highway through the
town. TIE county authorities
and the state highway depart
ment wanted to leave that route
to avoid two grade crossings.
The marshal Of the town at the
direction of the mayor and coun-
Gil, undertook to stop the work.
The town then applied for an in
junction, which was granted.
The county and state highway
department appealed the case
and won it in the supreme court.

Cotton has reached the new
high mark of $3.44 a pound in
Atlanta.
One bale, weighing 500 pounds,
brought $1,70 1t was Georgia
grown cotton, sold out public out
cry, and Forrest Adair, national
" known Atlanta business man,
was the auctioneer.. The pro-
ceeds went to the Scottish Rite
Hospital for crippled children.
The scene was on the main
floor of the Atlanta Commercial
Exchange. One bale. of cotton,
the first raised in Georgia in
1922, grown in Tiff county, near
Moultrie, Ga, was shipped to
Atlanta by express to the Attain
ia Commercial Exchange by the
Georgia Cotton company for the
grower. 1t was received at the
exchange on July -, On July
.l9 it was sold at auction for fifty
cents a pound, being brought by
]. ]. Williamson, Of the well
known cotton firm of Williamson.
