Walker will prove ner. winning run- Hardwick is going to find Walker a hard Cliff to run against. In fact, his $6,pOO machine is likely to got smash ed. President Harding has been made an honorary member of the Flathead Tribe of Indians. Far be it from us to comment on this. The worst enemy the working man of America has today is the propa gandist who is trying to Russianize the industries of this country. The Press Convention and Outing. The Press meet in Quitman and the outing at Brunswick last week were noted for the enjoyable features in cident to both. No fair city ever cared more royally for their guests than Quitman did during the stay of the editors, and delightful entertain ment filled every hour. There was the formal speech of welcome by one of her most prominent citizens — Hon. Lee W. Branch, a former Cedar- town attorney, and now a leading lawyer of South Georgia. He deliv ered a thoughtful address, dealing largely with the question of law en forcement and our national and state crises anent disturbances and defiance of established government. He has one of the elegant homes in Quitman, and his family enjoys a wide circle of friends in that section of the state. There were basket dinners and fried chicken and Brooks county hums galore, and a banquet and dance at the Country Club. Quit- man's beauty und charm vied with her wealth and facilities for entertaining the Georgia editors, and well did her hospitable people do the job. An un usual number of ladies attended the session and a feature of this conven tion was the afternoon Tuesday when the program was turned over to the most prominent lady editor in Middle Georgia, Miss Emily Woodwurd, the brilliant editor of the Vienna Pro gress. She presided like a veteran, and the ladies gave a most creditable account of themselves in several fine papers and speeches. The conven tion mascot is a lovely little girl of fourteen years, Mary Singleton of Clarkesville, who operates the lino type machine for her father and sets every line in the paper weekly, be Hides heading her class in the high school through the eighth grade. She is a marvel of energy and talent, and Is the pet of tho press crowd. We attended the big barbecue and chicken dinner in Brooks county on Wednesday at Blue Sprngs, when all the politicians spoke and devoured fried chicken. It was a great feast, with fully six or seven thousand peo ple gathered around the tables, and it reminded me of the good old days in Polk, when our farmers and neigh bors welcome their friends at some patriotic meeting. Hundreds came from four counties adjoining Brooks, and the fat of the land was spread for the entertainment of the big throng. Quitman hus quite a Cedartown colony. There are the Herbert Stubbs, the J. M. Curtrights, Dr. W. W. Wilson, Mrs George Wood, Les ter Stevenson, the John W Cains who came from Chattooga county, and many other North Georgians. These enterprising people from upper Geor gia have made an impression on that section by their leadership in all pub lic matters affecting the city and county. They have prospered much and helped to make that wonderful section what it is. Editor Royal Dan iel and his talented wife, formerly Miss Edna Cain, have contributed much to the development und pro gress of South Georgia. They were tireless in looking after the editors, and did much to make the convention week a splendid success. The Standard's representatives were the favored guesta of Mr. and Mrs. C. T Tillman, who have one of the hospitable homes of this magic little city. Mr. Tillman is a leading citizen in many ways, being general manager of the South Georgia Rail road, president of the Chamber of Commerce and the Country Club, be sides a generous contributor to all civic activities of his hustling city. Mrs. Coleman enjoyed the hospitality and thoughtful courtesies of Mrs. Tillman, the two having been warm friends in the state and general con ventions of the U. D. C. and D. A R, The writer was president of the Georgia editors organization when last it met in Quitman twenty years ago, and the growth of this city was most noticeable since our former gathering there. The beautiful homes, the paved streets, the artistic marble fountain erected as memorial to the heroic dead of that county in the World War, give the highest ev idence of their municipal progress and patriotic pride. Quitman proved a royal host, and the editors never enjoyed a more delightful session. Brunswick greeted the editors with an auto ride over the city, going over to old Darien, one of the first white settlements in colonial days and now one of the historic spots in Georgia. An elegant banquet at the famous old Oglethorpe Hotel, a boat ride down the harbor to Jckyl Island where the millionaires spend their winters, and winding up at a great fish dinner on St. Simon’s Island, proved a unique entertainment in the lovely city by the sea. The entire corps of officers was re-elected by the Press Association, and next year we meet in Lavonia in the northern sec tion of the state. W. S. COLEMAN.

President Harding evidently would n’t object to see Henry C. “a Lodge in some vast wilderness.” In his effort to find more things to tax, it looks ns though Gov. Hard wick is trying to drive the drug stores out of business. There is too much of the spirit a- broad in the land of everyone want ing their own way. And it’s a cinch that everybody can’t have it. And now Senator Nix, of the 51st District, has put some pep into the mix-up over the tax question by de nouncing Gov. Hardwick as a “com mon liar.” Lots of people who heard his campaign promises say ho in a most uncommon one. The acting Imperial Wizard of tho Ku Klux Klan has ordered that none of its members wear robee and hoods outside their lodge room. This action is taken because so many cowardly cusses who are not members of the order have masked themselvea in similar garb and perpetrated all kinds of outrages. One of the new professional psychanalysists in Atlanta claims Du- Pre, the Peachtree bandit, has only the brains of a twelve-year-old child. Yes? But how many twelve-year- olds has she ever heard of robbing stores in broad daylight and shooting down a couple of men to make their getaway? Some rot! Encouraged by the fight being made on President Wilson at home, the Peace Conference refused heed his recommendation that a fixed sum be set as the amount Germany was to pay for reparations. The scale was left sliding and indefinite, and this has been the cause —next to America’s refusal to join the League of Nations—that has preven ted Europe’s return to normalcy and has brought about the resulting busi ness depression in our own country. Calcium Arsenate. We are in receipt of a long letter from the Sherwin-Williams Co. ex plaining the difficulties under which they are laboring in trying to carry out their contract to funish our State Board of Entomology with calcium arsenate. The demand has been so unexpectedly heavy that they are running day and night and are buy ing from other factories at fancy prices, in order to meet their con tract to supply Georgia all she needs at only 9 cents a pound. Those farmers who bought from the calcium arsenate train when it was here are certainly in luck. Hon. Joe Hill Hall, of Macon, who represented Bibb county in the Legis lature for twenty-two years, died Saturday. He well earned the title of “the Watchdog of the Treasury,” and was one of Georgia’s ablest and most useful citizens. Mr. Joe Gaston, a prominent far mer of Butts county, has been selec ted by Hon. Cliff Walker as his cam paign manager in his race for the nomination for Governor. Mr. Wal ker returned Saturday from a two weeks trip through South Georgia, where he found his prospects for suc cess very bright indeed. We’re pained, perturbed, perplexed —in fact,our feelings are badly hurt. Jack Patterson, of the Atlanta Jour nal, published a list of Georgia towns last week that had entertained the Georgia Weekly Presa Association. He left Cedartown out, in spite of the fact that they never had a better time anywhere than here. Dawgonit! Senator Norris and other big Re publicans on the Senate Agricultural Committee last week went out of their way to denounce Henry Ford as a pirate in turning down his Mus cle Shoals offer. They were getting ready to give the property away as “scrap” to the power trust, when Mr. Ford brought them to taw with his offer. And now how they hate him I There is no typhoid fever in Ce dartown, but there are a few cases in Polk county, and the Georgia Board of Health reports that the disease is increasing rapidly throughout the State. Better be warned in time,and have your physician inoculate you a- gainst it at once. You suffer little if any convenience from it, and it cer tainly beats a long spell of sickness with a possibility fatal ending.

And here’s something none denies: ■LaBses beats vinegar catching flies; Men won’t advance by rapid stages Cussing the folks who pay their wa ges. Seab Lewis and his singing class Foregathered Sunday here en masse. They histed tunes from basso G Way to the heights of treble C; And we’ll also state in this ’ere rhyme They had—and kept—the best of time. The Hague Conference has jnst followed its Genoa predecessor into history as an apparent failure. It is probable, however, that all the Euro pean nations understand one another better as a result of these gatherings. In both cases Russia, whose present rulers have declared against the prin- ciple of debt-paying, have broken up the conferences by insisting on get ting big loans. The Standard was represented al the Press Convention in Quitman Iasi week by Mr. W. S. Coleman,of whon Mr. J. A. Hollomon, of the Atlanti Constitution, says: "A press conven tion in Georgia could not get under way without him. He doesn’t edit i newspaper any longer, but his pres ence is necessary to lead the Virginii reel at the country club receptions and to deliver serious orations durinj an hour of levity. Walter is in al sincerity one of the most popular reg ulars on these delightful occasiona.”
