Behold the IotiOnr Picture Hound,
Who never fail to rush around,
To see the latest feature.
But he is harmless, as we know,
Perhaps he really likes the show
And yet he's some queer creature.
He marvels at the highly scene
That's pictured there upon the
screen
And thinks it quite dramatic.
He thinks that Norma's simply fine
And others up and down the line;
He's very Democratic.
$50 far, so good" the prOverb goes
And we too, like the picture shows,
But we ache in our 'vitals'.
when this doggoned, disgusting fool,
Who thinks we never went to school
Will for US read sub-titles.

FREIGHT RATES
NOT IMPORTANT
COTTON FACTOR
Railways Officials Say That Rates
Are Not An Important Factor
in Cotton Rates

ATLANTA, Nov. 5. - Freight
rates are not an important factor in
establishing prcies paid cotton
growers, according to a statement
made public here today by railway
executives. Quality and grade of
cotton together with other general
elements of supply and demand and
not freight rates, govern prices, it
is claimed.
This is shown by study just COM
pleted by the bureau of railway eco
Monies, the executives state, as to
the production, distribution ash con-
sumption of cotton in the United
States, and the relationship between
prices paid to the cotton growers
and freight rates to representative
consuming centers.
Because less than half of the cot.
ton produced in the United States is
consumed in this country, the study
find, Atlanta executives assert, the
price paid cotton producers here is
greatly influenced by the demand in
foreign countries where the larger
part of the American crop is market
ed. The average yearly production
from 1920 to 1924 of cotton in the
United States, according to the fig
ures given out here, amounted to
100000 bales, of which approx
mately 5000, 900 bales were ex
ported.

BUILDING IN
ALBANY SHOWS
LARGE INCREASE
So Building Permits Granted for
Month of October Beats 1924
Record

ALBANY, Ca, Nov. with a
total of eighty eight building permits
granted through October 81 for to-
tai of $137,575, Albany's construc-
ton activities for 1925 are climbing
to an unprecedented total. The
amount for the first ten months OF
this year is $1,350,048, nearly $780,,
600 more than any year in the hi
tory of Albany.
Last year the city's building per-
mits went to $1,O55, 900. which was
record, but 1925 started off with
a bang and $448,000 worth of per-
mits during the first month the
amount has steadily grown until
now all records are smashed and
there are still two months of this
year to go,
1t is estimated that the permits
for the year will go well above a
million and a hat dollars. To reach
this total total of only $4,000 is
needed for each of the two remain
ing months in the year, and there has
been no month in 1925 when the to-
tai came under this amount. There
fore it is pointed out, it is reason
able to expect that the toal will go
that high.

CHARGED With
MURDER OF JOE
rooney DAVIS
Fox Admits Numbering Negro
But Claims He Advanced on
Him With Iron Bar

Facing a charge of murder, John
B. Fox, Kennels Phillips and Clyde
Scarborough, three Of the most
prominent young men of Lee county,
are being tried today in the Lee
County Superior court in session at
Leesburg.
The three young men were in
dicted by the grand jury yesterday
for the murder of Joe Romey Davis,
a negro, of Smithville.
The murder took place last summer
at Smithville where the three young
men make their home. At the time
of the murder, John Fox was given
a commitment hearing by Judge II.
L. Long, who exonerated Fox.
Fox admitted the murder but his
plea was that of self defense, stating
that the negro was advancing and
hitting at him with an iron bar.
The trial got under way this morn
ing, with Solicitor General julie Eel
ton, assisted by E. L. Forester rep
resenting the state. Hollis Fort, OF
Americas; C. r. Hale, of Smithville,
and Robert r. Forester, of Leesburg,
are representing the defendants.
The defense opened the trial with
statements from the three defend
ant followed by the appearing of
the widow and daughter of the de-
ceased on the stand for the state.
The state then introduced a negro,
hging in Smithville, and DR.. j. W.
Ragsdale, of Smithville, as witnesses.
DR.. Ragsdale, in appearing for the
state, furnished X-ray pictures, re-
ported to have been taken of the ne
gro's wound.
After this evidence had been sub
mitted, C. R. Hale, attorney for the
defense, made his argument, follow
ed by Colonel Robert Forester of
the defense.
The solicitor is scheduled to take
up his arguments for the state i'm
mediately after dinner. Following
him will be Colonel Hollis Fort, for
the defense. E. L. Forester will
then make the concluding arguments
for the state.
Last minute reports from Leesburg
were to the effect that the case
would go to the jury about 4 o'clock.
The young men on trial are promi-
nent young married men of Smith
vile and are known over the coun-
ty as being upright gentlemen.
There was some surprise expressed
over the findings of the grand jury,
the people of the county being of
the impression that the case had
been closed.

REAL ESTATE
IN BRUNSWICK
ENJOYS BOOM
C. w. Lane, Of Mt. Airy, N. c.,
Purchases in Georgia Coast
City Today

ATLANTA, Nov. 5.-Proof that
Florida doesn't have a monopoly on
the opportunities to make money
trading in real estate is evidenced in
report received here from Bruins
wick, Ga.
The transaction, which is said to
be the largest reported in sometime
in Brunswick, involved four brick
store buildings on Gloucester street
between Reynolds and Richmond
streets. 1t was owned by Abe Roth
child, Newcastle. jeweler, and was
sold to C. w. Lane, of Mt Airy, the
deal being handled by L. S. Robb, real
estate agent.
The purchase price of the property
was $35, 900 and in this connection it
is interesting to note that it was
bought by Mr.. Rotchchild a little
over year ago for $4,000. Since
that time he has expended $4,000 in
improvements, hence the transaction
Melted him $4,000 plus the rentals on
three stores, which have been at the
rate of 1925 a month.
Mr.. Lane is quoted as saying that
Brunswick today offers unusual ad-
yantages for real estate investments.
Within the past two weeks he has in
vested $4,000 in Glynn county acre
age, $4,000 in a building on New
castle street, $4,000 in a building on
Gloucester and Albany streets, g.
800 on an East Beach lot and with
his recent purchase has made total
investment of $4,000.

SOUTHERN RAILROADS
ARE PROSPEROUS

ATLANTA, Nov. 5. - Southern
railroads are more prosperous as a
whole just now than those OF any
other section, and far greater expan-

try, it was pointed out here today

Steamship lines between the North
Atlantic and the South Atlantic
