"Doctor” Lee, who, so far, has been the chief fugleman of the prohibition cause in Bibb county. We have remained silent while ‘ Doctor" Lee characterized The Neu* as being fifty per cent, respectable, b< < ause, forsooth, the other fifty per cent, happened to differ with min a* to the de.sirability of prohibition. We have not at tempted to correct "Doctor” Lee when he, recklessly if not purposely, misconstrued the altitude of The News in this fight. • Although working for a reform which we loiiMueutiously consider of more value to the community and to mankind than that which “Doctor” Lee advocate* (at so much per speech) we have refused to cor rect him when he attempted to make us appear a* a "liquor organ.” At i confcfes (if the public will allow us to indulge lu a little personalism) that private ami not public motives have in duced us to remain silent. To be very plain, personal friendship and business tiuai, rather tlrau any consideration for ' Doctor" Leo or faith in his cause, have some what deterred us in our customary policy of saying exactly what we think at ail limes and regardless of who is pleased or displeased tuoreby. These same ties, even now, cause us to say less of “Doctor” Lee than wo are prepared co say, and .to prove. AVe think we but voice the sentiments of more than itwo-thlrds of this community, however, when wo say “Doctor” Lee ha* not practiced temperance in speech, al though advocating temperance in other thing*, 'io be perfuoUy frank, we think our prohibition friends realize that they made a serious mistake when they in jected Doctor ’ Lee into this campaign. At least the most couiscrvative of ine.ni leel this way, though, no doubt, the “Doc tor" has been using the very sort of am mumiion that is best liked by some of them, in fact, it. is wry apparent that Nome of tue extremists have been nuiking the bullet* for "Doctor" Lee to lire; for everyone is aware of the luot 'that the "Doctor" iumself knows practically noth ing about the people and things he unuertaken to denounce. He has demou nt raud his utter unfainiiiarity with this community and its citizens by the numer ous mistakes he lias made. And he has also demon st rated his utter recklessness ■when handling facts. To say nothing of the very bad quality of refusing to make u correction or apology when he finds out he has done someone an injustice. But all that we 'have.to do with "Doctor” Lee is with reference to fils speech of last uight, in which he sought to make this paper appear as a liquor organ, and other wise attacked its position. So full of bigotry 1* this “Doctor” Lee that he never for a moment stopped to consider whether or not we are as much interested In temperance as he; whether we are as much of an abstainer as he; whether we are as conscientious as he. No, he simply jumped at the conclusion that we are an avowed advocate of whisky because we cannot see that his plan for promoting temperance is the best. We do not care to enter into a prohibi tion Tgument with this “Doctor” Lee. AV e do not even care to enter into a con troversy over that solution of the problem which we still think the best. It was our purpose to hold hands off as much as pos sible, without actually stultifying our •elve*, for the personal reasons already alluded to. But we cannot allow “Doctor” Lee or anyone else to wilfully put us in a false light because we happen not to agree with him in his peculiar views as to how best to control the sale of liquor. We* have a great deal of respect for a largo majority of the prohibitionists, and we believe that many of them are capable of doing us justice, whether "Doctor” LeS is or not, so that in correcting the impres sion which the "Doctor” has sought to create we .would not be understood as in tending to say aught against them or their cause, except that we cannot conscienti ously believe it is the correct solution of the liquor problem—a problem which we are quite as anxious to solve as they, but which we think finds its best solution in high license and strict regulations. To Prevent Fraud. Representative E. C. Speer, of Sumter county, has come forward with a very unique plan to prevent fraudulent convey ances of stocks of merchandise, by re quiring purchasers of same to give notice by publication. Representative Speer has embodied his ideas in a bill, which, he believes, will benefit the commercial in terests of the state. Under bis bill in all sales of stocks of merchandise made out of the usual course of business, or of sales of merchandise which have the effect of practically discontinuing the business of the seller or sellers, it shall be the duty of the purchaser or purchasers to cause a notice of such purchase to be published once in a newspaper of general circulation In the county where such property Is sit uated and to retain in hi* or their custody and control the purchase price or consid eration of such sale for a period of ten daysg after such publication. Said publication shall give notice that *aid purchaser or purchasers have pur chased such merchandise of the seller or i sellers, (whose names shall be stated in said notice) and notifying the creditors, if . any, of said seller or sellers; the residence of said purchaser or purchasers shall also ! be stated therein. * In the event of a failure to so advertise, such sale shall be void as against any • creditor or creditors of the seller or sellers, a penalty which will, no doubt, guarantee a strict observance of the law. Mr. Speer's bill has already been endorsed by many representative business men of the state, and it is quite probable that it will be en acted into law. After .d, ghere is more in being any SWI of no citizen at all. A Larger Standing Armv. There is harlly any doubt of the fact | that cur standing army will be .ncreaaed to at one hundred tho ÜBaa .i men and ; probably more; and this ia a sac . w should engage the aD.ent'm -u teer eoldxns who ? n j th ‘, . ‘ he Vo!un ‘ vms attractive to them.

There are other incidental iAcreasea of revenue that might ba mentioned. The present regular military establish ment of the country consist of 2,139 stall' and line officers and about 25,000 enlisted men. Ihis force is acknowledged to be in adequate to the demands that acquisition of territory and other conditions have im posed up on it, and it is certain that Con gretJ will provide for an increase to the btryngth of at ie&3t 100,OuO m g.u This is as it should be, and we urge upon our young men m advance to fit themselves to take advantage of the op portunity that is soon to be offered them, lhey cannot rely on political influences aS* they did some mouths ago; for the reason that the standing army will 'be re cruited on a very different basis. Effi ciency will be the standard which will measure the rank of new officers in the new standing army, and those woo nope to take a high stand there will begin to look to their laurels now. At the meeting of the Georgia Federa tion of Women’s Clubs in Columbus No vember Bth Mrs. E. J. Willingham, of Macon, will deliver an address on “The Condition of M age Earning Women and Children in Georgia.” Mrs. Wiillingiha.ni is one of the brightest women in Georgia! and she is greatly interested in the social problem. It goes without saying that her address will be one of the ablest that will be heard on that occasion. The sad death of brilliant .Tom Cobb will cause general sorrow throughout the state. No young man in Georgia possessed more natural ability, and there were few whose future seemed so bright. Young Cobb fell a victim to that dread disease, cousumtion, and thus the state has been robbed of a citizen who in the years to come would, undoubtedly, have added lustre to his state and to ’the lion ored name he bore. It is being demonstrated more and mofie every day that The News, suggestion of a compromise was wise and timely. But just wait a week or two longer. There are some things even worse than being an anti-prohibitionist—and bigotry is one of them. * Spreads Like Wildfire. You can’t keep a good thing down. News of it travels fast. When things are “the best” they become the “best selling.” Abraham Hi *A’, a leading drugigst, of Bellevue, 0., writes: “Electric Bitters are the best selling bitters I have ever handled in my 20 years experience.” You know why? Most diseases begin in disorders of stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, blood and nerves. Electric Bitters tones up the stom ach, regulates the liver, kidneys and bowels, purifies the blood, strengthens the nerves, hence cures multitudes of mala dies. It builds up the entire system. Puts new life and vigor into any weak, sickly run-down man or woman. Only 50 cents. Sold by 11. J. Lamar & Sons, druggists. Guarantees ROCKWOOD HEWITT, Well Known in Theatrical Circles, Died Today. By Associated Press. New York, Nov 3 —H. Rock wood-Hewitt, widely known in theatrical circles all over the country as H. Rockwood, Mr. Charles Frohman’s general business manager, died from appendicitis last night at the San Remo. ’ Mr. Rockwood’s start in the theatrical business was made more than twelve years ago as a manager of road compa nies. He was connected in this capacity with “Esmeralda;” “Young Mrs. Win throp,” and “Held by the Enemy.” When Mr. Frohman established * his stock company at what is now Proctor’s,* Twenty-third street theater, he made Mr. Rockwood his general business manager, a position which he had retained ever since and which has grown to be one of the greatest responsibility, as Mr. Froh man’s enterprises have increased, in num ber and extent.
