In the election of Mr. W. R. Bowen as delegate to the National
Convention, the Third Congressional Distret paid Ren Hill and Mr. Bowen
a high compliment. Being in the extreme end of the “shoe-string dis
trict,” Ben Hill county is placed at a great disadvantage for political in
fluence in the district, but Mr. Bowen’s personal acquaintance and popu
larity gave our county an advantage that its location deniedus. Weare
proud of the distinction and the opportunity of having Ben Hill county
and Fitzgerald represented at the Baltimore Convention by this popular
citizen. : , , ‘
eLT T A Ai AU e
Mr. Watson’s effort to have the County Unit plan officially recog
nized by the State Convention has the support of a majority of the
people. ilis position was entirely right and in the interest of true
Democracy. The political machine 1s doomed. The Country Coun
ties will take charge of the next State Convention and make the de
feated efforts of Mr, Watson Party-Law for future conventions, Mr.
Watson has the opportunity to make the will of the People paramount
in State Conventions and neutralize the debasing influences of suach
men as Tom Felder. :
e i b
Delegates from Country Counties were loyal to the man who
fought their battles, Despite the efforts of the City garg to control
the convention at any cost and at any price, .T. E. W. was an easy
winner as delegate at large to the Baltimore Convention. It 1§ very
apparent that in the interest of the State of Georgia and as a protec
tion against throttling the popular will, delegates to the National Con
vention must be voted for at the Primaries. No matter where held,
Atlanta, Macon, or elsewhere the local element will always furnish the
majority in the Convention Hall, and it will become absolutely impos
sible to get a fair expression of the accredited delegates,
District Primaries are the remedy and with them alone will Demo
cracy have its real opportunity in the conservatism and “square deal”
inherent in the country voter.

Another Protest Against The Backwoods Trus
tees of the 3d District Agricultural School
Much interest is felt here in the action of the trustees of the Third
District Agricultural School in ruling that no more female students shall
be admitted to that institution, basing their reason therefor on the state
ment that the district agricultural schools of the state were intended as
feeders for the state College of Agriculture and as females were not
eligible for that institution, they should not be admitted to the district
schools. Doubtless other reasons than those given influenced the trus
-lees of the Americus institution, for that given reads at this distance
like a clumsily framed excuse. Not one graduate in ten from the dis
trict schools attends the state institution, yet these schools are doing a
great and noble work for the sons and daughters of the farmers of Geor
gia, a work that grows in volume and capacity for good as the years roll
around and it is more fully appreciated by those for whom it was orig
inally planned. And to say that the state shall educate its farmers and
shut its doors on the education and training of the wives of its farmers
is rank class legislation. The female students of the Second district
school were among those who received most benefit from the past term,
aad the gazette trusts they will never be denied admission to its doors.
Tre district aoriculiural schools have a higher mission than mere feeders
to the state College of Agdriculture, and these who framed the law creat
ing them doubtless never intended them so 10 be.—Tifton Gazetie.

SUFFERER FROM SKIN TROUBLE
TELLS HOW HE FOUND RELIEF
IN SAXO SALVE.
“1 guffered from a severe skin af-\
fection so I could not sleep nights, I
was almost crazy with itching. I
would scratch and almost tear myself
to pieces. I tried a great many reme
dies without relief. When I saw Saxo
Salve advertised I decided to try it
and one tube entirely cured me. I
recommend it wherever I go.” A, L.
Morgan, Endicott, N. Y.
Many persons around here suffer
so much from eczema that they can
not sleep at night. Saxo Salve stops
the terrible itching and goothes and
heals the eruptions.
In all kinds of eczema, salt rheum,
tetter, barber’s itch, etc., Saxo Salve
has wonderful healing power because
it penetrates the skin pores and de
stroys the germs at the very seat of
the disease.
We give batk your money if Saxo
Salve does not help you.
