Atlanta had a real alee time with
.Vice-President Fairbanks, Saturday,
add contrary to expectation the tern-
: peraturo round about tho capital didn’t
• take a tumble. The vice-president had
lieen over in Birmingham rubbing ol-
v bows with a body of Southern Meth-
' odists quite genial enough to melt an
Uieberg, .and had not had time to re*
BH stime his normal Arctic status when
he Reached the Georgia capital.
& ,;;lf Senator Bailey is not timber of
fee presidential dimensions, then we are
'' iio judge of men, and if the South
, vpould not like to vote, in 190S, tickets
bearing his name, then we don’t know
Southern sentiment. How much bet-
. ter it would be for the South to vote,
even though she voted alone, for a big
man like Bailey, who stands for Dem-
. ybcracy, than to waste her voteB and
\ |ter enthusiasm on some Northern
Democrat who would probably not be
elec?ted, and who, even should the par
ty be victorious, might prove bitterly
disappointing. ' ,
- BOTH COMMITTEE!) MEET.
Inquiries received by THs Herald
during the past few days Indicate un
certainty or a misunderstanding In tho
mlnda of some of the members of the
Democratic Executive Committee of
the Second Congressional District with
reference to the meeting or meetings
of the committee tn this city on next
Thursday, the 24th Inst.
An Intelligent reading of the resolu
tions passed by the district committee
when It met to order the primary
which was held,on the 10th Inst., will
make It perfectly plain that the pres
ent or old committee will meet at Al
bany next Thursday to consolidate the
i
returns from the primary and to de
clare the result, and that the new
committee that was elected In the pri
mary on the 16th Inst, will also meet
at 1 o’clock p. m. of the same day, at
Albany, to qualify and effect Its organ
ization. Both the retiring committee
and tho committee elected for the next
two years will, therefore, meet in Al
bany on next Thursday. The term of
the present committee does not expire
until the returns from tho primary
held on the 10th inst. have been con
solidated and the reault declared. As
soon ns this business has been dis
posed of, however, the term of the
present committee expires and the
term of the new committee begins.
TO TOP THEM ALL.
The American-navy is to have that
big battleship—the biggest fighting
machine afloat.
In spite of the earnest protests of
loading Republican members against
the extravagance of naval expenditure,
the house has resolved to delight the
heart of Jingoism with the present of
the $10,000,000 •battleship. It Is said
that when launched It will be the
greatest monBter of destruction that
floats upon the waters.
Is not that a sufficient ground of na
tional pride and exultation? Estimat
ing the number of taxpayers at 20,-
OOO.OOO^by the time the great big toy Is
finished this will he only 50 cents a
head.
Parental fondness is daily expend
ing much larger sums In toys to amuse
ehtldren-of snlnllor growth. President
Ronsovelt, too, Is crying for tills play
thing, and In view of tho action of the
house tho senato will hardly bo so
eruol ns to refuse him this gratifica
tion nftor so many rebuffs. ,
Persons sensitive to low tempera-
t\iros' who lmvo been alarmed at the
predictions of certain geologists that
In the course of a few thousand years
tho earth would become too cold to
admit of nnlmnl life will ho relieved by
the asRurnnces of Professor Chamber-
lain. of the University of Chtcngo, that
tiro globe was not once red hot, has
not cooled down to Its present highly
variable hut generally tolerable tern-
lierature, and will not In the course of
time reach the condition of perpetual
winter. The professor says the world
Is not steadily contracting and cooling,
hut has actually annexed unconsidered
trifles floating about In apace, with the
effect, of adding something to Us size
end heat; and he ventures the predic
tion that It will he a pleasant place of
residence for millions of years.
Real Democrats—and that’s the sort
the State Democratic Committee Is
supposed to represent —can't quite
bring themselves to the point of ac
cepting tho contention of the Atlanta
Journal and Us crowd of "Democrats
Pro Tom.,” ns the Macon Telegraph
has aptly dubbed them, that the term
“Democrat." as applied by the State
Committee tn Us rules and regulations
for the Democratic primary, can he
aa insult to any man desiring or otter
ing to participate In a Democratic
party primary.
Cutting oats Is now the order of
the day on the average farm in South
west Georgia. Speaking of oats, we
are reminded that at about this time
last year, or perhaps a little earlier in
the month of May, there came a storm
which played havoc with the oats in
this region. Without any such dis
aster this season, the'yield of the oat
crop promises to he good.
The population of Albany cannot
Increase to any considerable extent
until more houses are built. The de
mand for houses, both for business
purposes and dwelling places, Is un
precedented. The city Is losing sub-
Btantlll accessions to Its population
and business Interests daily, on ac
count of having no houses available to
those wanting to locate here.
If former Senator Chandler' toere
still entrenched In the congressional
position which ho held for so many
years, he would probably not be so
particular about selecting respectful
language in referring to the President
It Is one of the prerogatives of an act
ive senator to pay his respects to the
chief executive with the gloves off.
la Term “Democrat” an Insult?
Prom the Macon Telegraph.
The Atlanta Journal, which la no
longer a Democratic newspaper, tells
the Populists that it Is an “Insult” to
them to ask them to take the Demo
cratic pledge!
There Is party disloyalty for you!
An “Insult" to ask a man to become a
Democrat!
What do you think of that, you old
battle-scarred Democrats?
What do you think of that, you old
fellows who have kept the faith from
the dark days of reconstruction until
this good hour?
What do you think of that, you
young Democrats who have heard your
fathers tell of the struggles they had
to get over negro soldier bayonets to
the polls to vote a Democratic ticket?
An "Insult" to Invite a man to take
the Democratic pledge, Indeed!
But that Is the program that the
Telfair Enterprise is helping along.
We freely grant it the right to go with
that company If It wants to, but as for
the Telegraph, if It cannot get a pure
ly Southern Democracy it will take the
best Democracy It can get, and fight
loyally for It.
No Ice famine In Albany now. Bar
ron sends It when you want It.

BEC&msm
A MOTHER
Is an ordeal which all
women approach with
indescribable fear, for
nothing compares with
thd pain and horror of
child-birth. The thought
of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother
of all pleasarit anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a
shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women
have found that the use of Mother’s Friend during pregnancy robs
confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother
and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the
time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother’s Friend
carry women safely through tho pcrjls of child-birth, but its use
gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents “morning
sickness,” and other dis
comforts of this period.
