FARMERS- SAVE YOUR COTTON!’ If there is any possible way by which the farmers can get some value from their cotton crop this fall, they ought to have the chance. Hitherto all the clear money has gone to the middle man. and the speculator. It ft so arranged now that you will not be forced to sell your surplus cot ton, because of being taxed on both the cotton as well as the land that raised it. It has been a crying shame that such a state of things have hindered for »O long. I know people who are taxed on their land to the limit. They got nothing from the land but the cotton rent. Out of that cotton, which repre sented all their revenue, they had to pay the taxes. If they did not dump that cotton on the market before Feb ruary Ist they had to pay tax on the • land—and also tax on the cotton. Be tween the speculator and the tax man— the cotton owner—was between the dev il and the dfcep sea! I know plenty of people who had to take S cents foi their cotton, tor which the speculators realised IL 12. and even 13 cents: a positive gain of tii and thirty dollars a bale. It was outrageous—it was cruel— it was unheard-of tyrany. to pinch the producer, to give bloated money to those who speculated on the price—be cause of this tax on cotton. Hold your cotton until you get enough out of it. to pay for the labor and guano and taxes. If there is a reliable organization anywhere that will guaran tee to you. a price for your cotton that will give you a profit—be sure to accept it. We have been the slaves of cotton speculators quite long enough. In country homes the breaking of . lamp chimneys often causes a great deal of bother. If one will put all new chim neys in a pail of cold water and put on the fire to boil for a couple of hours, the chimney will last twice as long as in ordinary one. ' The objectionable sputtering and frying jf hot fat when eggs, hominy, apples and like things are dropped into it to fry, may be prevented if a little flour Is sifted into the fat just before they ■re added.

Fish scales may easily be removed by pouring hot water on the fish slowly un til the scales curl, then scraping quickly. Wash in several waters, having the last cold and well salted, ahd no slime will be left. W»»en buttons are taken from an uW dress they should be loosely strung on a thread before being put into a button box.

DEMOPOLIS BLOCK DESTROYED BY FIRE (»y Associated Press.) DEMOPOLIS, Ala., Aug. 16.—The worst fire in many years visited Demo polis Thursday, practically destroying one of the handsomest blocks in the city. The loss will reach 375,000. The largest loser is John C. Webb, Sr., who owned the Cheshire-Webb building, containing a number of mercantile es tablishments. Other buildings burned, also the residence of E. T. Halstead and the Gem theatre. . • It looked for a time as though the entire business section was doomed and aid was sought from Salem. The flames were under control, however, before the firemen conld reach the city. PROGRESSIVES CALL? TAR HEEL CONVENTION (By Aueciated Pre**.) GREENSBORO. N. C„ August 17.

September 4. THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, JULY 20, 1912. “Liquefying the Constitution | The historian Grote speaks of the fact that a nation may acquire the habit of •-constitutional immorality”, and notes such a habit as a mark of national'decadence. Nothing more surely indicates de cay in the moral character of a na tion than a disposition to break away from the restraints of its con stitution. This must be apparent when we consider what is the nature and office of a constitution. Constitutional government is not, as some vainly talk, a government by the majority; but it is a govern ment by the majority under the re straints and limitations of the con stitution. There are things which a majority can not do under constitu tional government. A constitution is, therefore, the protection of the minority against the passion and op pression of the- majority. Under a republican form of government in which the people are sovereign, the constitutional restraints put over majorities are like those limitations of law put upon kings under con stitutional monarchies. The humblest and obscurist citizen of Great Brit ain is protected against the oppres sion of the king by constitutional principles which no British monarch has dared to infract since Charles I lost his head for such infractions. In like manner the poorest and weakest man in the United States is defended against the oppression of the majority by constitutional prin ciples which all the civil officers of the land, from president to consta ble, are sworn to support. In the absence of such restraints no man's liberty in our country would be se cure. It behooves every man, there fore, to insist upon absolute respect and submission to the fundamental law of the republic and the states. Constitutions are the embodiment of great fixed principles of right, not subject to sudden changes, as the fickle feelings or transient interests of the majority may dictate. Statutes may vary with varying conditions, but the principles established in a constitution are net subject to such mutations. In the main, constitution al limitations are the expression of essential and eternal rules of right and wrong: they are ethical in their character. When, therefore, men or nations grow impatient of constitu tional principles, they show thereby a disposition towards immorality and manifest a desire to dethrone righteousness and set up their own wilfulness in the place of moral law. Once they set out on such a course neither they nor any one else can say where they will stop; their destina tion becomes as uncertain as ca pricious desire and lawdess expe diency can make it. All political conduct under such conditions be comes a mere matter of power with out regard to principle. Dema gogues flourish at such times, flat tering the majority with high sounding eulogies of "the people” in order to accomplish their own ambi tious designs and selfish ends. AH the distinctions of right and wrong become dim and wavering in the minds of the . people, conscience grows feeble and virtue withers. Minorities arc oppressed, and the in dividual becomes the sport of popu lar waves of super-heated sentiment. Even demagogues cease to be se cure: for one follows another in quick succession as the fitful pur poses of a fickle populace change from one sensation to another, just as in the French Revolution men who were the idols of the people on one day were guillotined the next amid cries of popular execration. JUMPS FROM TRAIN TO CAPTURE NEGRO (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) LAGRANGE. Aug. 16.—Sheriff Oscar Florence, of Troup county, is laid up at his home in tne county jail, on account of injuries received in a jump off an Atlanta and West Point railroad train Sunday night, after an escaping negro convict, Tom Moore, whom Sheriff Flor ence had in the baggage car of the train, and was bringing him back to La grange. Moore, who is charged with murder, is a desperate character accord ing to the authorities and the sheriff when Moore, the negro, jumped from the train near Moreland, immediately jumped also. Sheriff Florence in Jumping from the moving train hit his head on a rock moving train hit his head on a rock and a large gash requiring 35 stitches, was cut in his skull. SILK MILL WILL BE ESTABLISHED AT MACON MACON, Ga., Aug. 16.—Macon has another industrial establishment in the form of a silk mill. A representative of a prominent northern silk mill has leased a site here for the mill for a term of five years. After the business has opened here it is probable thatthey will purchase their own site and erect a building of their own. Macon was decided as the place to locate their Georgia branch mill at he last meeting of the firm directors. The factory will furnish employment to about 500 workmen, the majority of which will be securea among the Ma con working classes. It is planned by the company to open the factory Just as soon as the machinery can be installed and the employes collected. PARKER AND WALKER SPEAK AT BLACKSHEAR (Special Dispatch to The Journal.' BLACKBHTAR, Ga., Aug. 17.—The joint debate held here today between Judge T. A. Parker and Hon. J. Randall Walker, opposing candidates for con gress from the Eleventh district, was one of the most Interesting ones of the campaign. Both speakers were in good voice and good humor. No personalities were engaged in. and the crowd which was a large one, numbering 3,000, gave most cordial attention. Both speakers claim for themselves a victory on next Wednesday. While Pierse is the county of Walker’s nativity, Judge Parker is well known here. Both speakers will hold a meeting tonight in Waycross, but it is understood that no joint de- MANY "REALT YDEALS MADE IN 8188 COUNTY (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) MACON, Ga., Aug. 16.—1 t has been ascertained from the tax digest of Bibb county that over one half of the real estate of the county has changed hands within the past year. The tax values of the county as has been recently shown by the recent tax digest is $21.- 000,000 although it is known that the county is worth considerable more than is valued in taj returns. Out of the one half of property that lias changed hands, the books show that one third of it was done for financial considerations. Mrs. Liman L. Demp sey is the largest real estate owner in the county as the present returns shows her property to be valued at >284,500. It is to be feared that our country is in a danger of this sort. The light and sportive manner in which some among us assume to deal with our constitutional limitations is pos itively alarming. In a public ad dress widely circulated some years ago, Theodore Roosevelt, while pres ident of the United States and sworn to support the constitution, said, “We need through executive action, through legislative action. and through judicial interpretation and construction of law to increase the power of the federal government." Such an utterance fairly construed was nothing less than an exhortation to the officials in every branch of the government to violate furtively the constitution which they were sworn to obser.ve faithfully. It was an in citement to commit a crime akin to treason. Since, then he has not ceased to take appeals against the constitution. He is fond of re-enact ing the ten commandments in season and out of season, emphasizing al ways, "Thou shalt not steal”; but in the words quoted he deliberately counseled that the rights of the states should be systematically stol en and given to the federal govern ment. this energetic talker does not conceive that the command ment against stealing is of universal application: when it serves his ends he invokes it, and when it is in his way he sets it aside without so much as making reference to it. Now, the worse form of secession is the nullification of the constitu tion; for the Union without the con stitution is not the Federal Union, under which the nation has prosper ed and grown great; but it is an or ganized tyrannj' of an unscrupulous majority trampling under foot the sacred rights of minorities. This proposal to filch the powers of the states to centralize the federal gov ernment is a revolutionary proposi tion as truly as if it were a call to arms to overthrow the government. Orosco and Zapata in Mexico make a more open show of revolution, but they are not engaged in a more real or dangerous uprising against con stitutional government. If the Federal Government needs more power to fulfill its proper func tions. there is a regular and legiti mate way for amending the consti tution; but it does not appertain to the executive, legislative or judicial departments, or to all of them com bined, to steal slyly the reserved rights of the state or the people, to confer such power on the govern ment at Washington. But does the Federal Government need more power it now has un der the constitution? Scarcely. It is said that there has been accomplish ed a perilous concentration of wealth in the hands of a few people in our country during the last twenty-five years. Suppose we should centralize the government and that eventually concentrated wealth should get hold of the centralized federal power. What then would become of the rights of the people? What powerful men would do then would be simply what might be desired by them while wielding this stupendous combination of financial and political power. The limit of their evil deeds would be the boundary of their eager desires. Os pourse they would prate about "the dear people” while destroying our political institu tions and enslaving the nation. Did and tyrant or set of tyrants ever fail to profess vehemently their devotion to popular rights and Interests? The worst of the Caesars did that. Men wielding concentrated wealth and centralized political power would use millions to corrupt the electorate; Jmany improvements MADE AT THOMASTON New Water and Sewer System and Fire Apparatus Installed (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) THOMASTON, Ga., Aug. 16.—With the installation of the $50,000 water and sewer system by the city of Thomaston, cou pled together with their purchase of ample fire figflting apparatus, business and building hate taken on new life, and are on a bcom. J ones-Adams-John ston, who are a new firm, have practical ly completed their new SIO,OOO store, with steel glass front, which has a floor space of 50,00 u feet, and will be the handsomest business structure in town. J. F. Lewis has torn down his old store and is erect ing a modem fireproof, pressed brick store on Center street, which will be occupied by the new firm of Lewis Broth ers. Four new stores have been erected in East Thomaston. The Pasley hotel is making a $5,000 adddition, which will add ten rooms to this magnificent hotel. The A. A. White Shoe and Leather com pany have remodeled their large ginnery, and the Farmers’ union have just finished a two-story fireproof ginnery with a 100- bale a day capacity. Kelly & Neal, plum bers, have built an addition to their brick building, while the Thomaston Ice com pany, by running day and night, have a capacity of 12 tons a day. J. B. Murray has but a few months ago completed two modern brick stores on Main street, now occupied by the Thomaston Times and the City baffber shop, and nurfibers of l new residences are in course of construc tion. On South Center F. M. Gardner is building a ten-room homo two stories; O. S. Perdue will build a two-story res idence with ten rooms, each costing $5,000. Brooks Barron is erecting a bungalow at a cost of $3,000. L. A. Crawford will build a magnificent home on the same street; J. B. Barron and Britt High tower have just completed two modern j bungalows. Business activity and increase is plainly visible. CATHOLiFPRESS AGAIN HEADED BY COONEY I'Bv Associated Press.) LOUISVILLE. Ky„ Aug. 17.—E. J. Cooney, of Providence. K. 1., was re elected president of the Catholic Press Association at its concluding sessions here today.

I Other officers also were re-elected. MRS. LEOL/UONES IS OUT ON SIO,OOO BOND (By Associated Proaa.) NASHVILLE, Tenn, August 17.—Mrs. Leola Jones, accused of the murder of Mrs. Alva Cave several days ago, was released from jail on SIO,OOO bail late this afternoon. Mrs. Jones refuses to discuss the charge against her. It is supposed jealousy was the cause of the killing. Mrs. Cave was the daughter-in-law of Rev. Dr. R. Lin Cave, chaplain general of the United Confederate veterans. Her husband has been dead several years. such expenditures they would regard as productive investments. They would lay hands on the processes of both the production and distribution of wealth, so as to win the votes of the ever-numerous classes of the indo lent and thriftless, and they would claim benevolence as the motive of the schemes by which they skillfully purchased the favour of the proleta riat. Such cant phrases as "social justice”, "a square deal for every man”, “civic righteousness - ’, and the like, would become the shibboleths of the political Pharisees while they fat tened by devouring the nation and flourished by persistent pretences of righteousness affected for the uses of the market-place only. Men who lead revolutions, whether openly or furtively, always promise material good to the. multitude. Socialistic schemes are the baits by which na tions have always been lured to the subversion of their institutions and beguiled to their own enslavement. Equally with proposals to violate the constitution surreptitiously by executive, legislative, and judicial usurpation of power, is the proposi tion to make its amendment easy. A constitution being the embodiment of fixed principles, little subject to change in any particular and in most particulars as unchangeable as etern al right, ought not to be susceptible of too easy amendment. A process of easy amendment reduces a consti tution to the level of an ordinary statute. ' Such ought not to be the case. When a people frame a consti tution it is agreed by them that there are some things so settled that they may not be readily changed, and they thus covenant, all with each and each with all, that these fixed prin ciples shall be held inviolable. It amounts to 4nfldelity to sacred pledges when such an instrument is set aside hastily x and carelessly. At what point is our national con stitution hindering any real or wor thy progress? Why should it be come the object of attack? Is social ism so desirable and settled govern ment so evil that we should be asked to overthrow the structure of our federal system in order to make way for the visionary schemes of pas sionate reformers or to gratify the aspirations of inordinate ambition? Let us be sure that when we break settled principles of government and fundamental morals, we are not pro gressives advancing toward a blessed industrial millenium, but prodigals squandering a great inheritance, and that we will soon find ourselves in dire destitution amid a famine In a region of life far from any real good. A conspicuous man, professing to be an authoritative exponent of a certain picturesque movement, issued from Chicago a few days ago a state ment in which he said that our gov ernment was too solid, and that It was proposed to "liquify” the con stitution. That word is exact, even though it express a shameless pur pose. It is fortunate that the secret is out and that we know what Is proposed. "Liquify the constitution"! make that fluid and fickle which in its very nature ought to be fixed and stable! "Liquify the constitution", or make a flood by cutting the dykes which protect good government against perilous waves, and then let us go to sea! And that is called progress! It is revolution. While publicists debate matters of mere policy the rest of us may sit quietly down to hear without serious alarm the discussion; but when it is openly proposed to revolutionize our system of government patriotic men who fear God and love men can not view the proposal with indifference. TRI-COUNTY FAIR WILL MEET AT WASHINGTON (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) WASHINGTON, Ga., Aug. IG.—The orig inal plans of the Wilkes-Lincoln fair, which is to be held in this city, beginning October 22, have assumed such propor tions that larger and better quarters for the exhibits had to be secured. The gentlemen who were first interested In the project contemplated an exhibit that would be accommodated in the coun ty court house, but after the enterprise had been taken in hand by the local chamber of commerce, which body work ed up an elaborate list of prizes and en listed the sympathy of other well known farmers and merchants, it was found that other quarters would have to be' secured. Negotiations were at once opened to get a large plot of ground on the east side of the city, where a building is to be erected. WOMAN BATHES IN OIL, THEN APPLIES MATCH TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 16.—Crazed by ex cessive and constant smoking, Victoria Ruiz, a Cuban woman, poured a gallon of kerosene over her clothing, Thurs day, and lighted a match to it.

WASHINGTON, August 16.—1 tis said to be reasonably certain that r.o further protest will be made by Great Britain on behalf of English mercantile interests against the Panama canal bll if it finally takes the form reported yesterday from the conference commit tee. The British objection was lait; against discrimination against Brltisl shipping. As such shipping is not now prvileged to enter into the Americar coastwise trade which alone is to re ceive favored treatment in the canal that objection is overcome. It is regarded as possible, however that in deference to Canada the British government may be led to object to th< prohibition against the passage of rail road-owned ships, but state departmen officials are confident that objectloi would not hold under the treaty as th prohibition is to apply to Americar i vessels as well as others.
