We'll have to hustle to boat the band
To make It a credit to the folk
Who live right here in good old Polk.

J. D. Wheeler, farmer, Route No.

got down with my back and at times
it was hard for mo to get about my
work on the farm. Every time I
atooped I had a knife-like pain
through the small of my back that al
most knocked me to my knees. My
back became weak and I could hardly
lift a hammer. A little work took all
my energy and strength. My kidneys
acted irregularly and at times the se

box of Doan's Kidney Pills for this
trouble and was free from all kidney
complaint Doan’s cured me entire
ly.”

Should Show Sense.
Judge Sibley, of the Federal Court,
handed do^n a sensible decision n
few days ago to the effect that an al
leged lawbreaker cannot be convicted
on evidence obtained by fraudulent
and illegal methods of entry, search
and seizure to procure evidence.
In other "words, an officer must
himself respect the law in seeking to
execute it, and that sounds like good
sense as well as law.
Officers often bring the law into
disrepute by their methods. We
heard the other day, for instance, of
a Georgia Judge who put a fine of
several hundred dollars on a man
passing through his town who was
taking home a little whiskey in his
ear. The tourist, as the story conies
to us, refused to sell any of it to a
man there with whom he formed a
chance acquaintance, and the fellow
turned him up. The Judge imposed
such a heavy fine that the man had to
send his family home on the train to
raise the money, the car being held
for security. This, of course, fatten
ed the “insolvent cost” treasury
at the expense of a stranger, and the
Judge probably thought this was
“good business,” but if these are ac
tual facts that come to us, no sane
prohibitionist could have any respect
for that type of a Judge.
The Daugherty injunction against
the striking Shopmen wns intended
to stop violence —something that is
not favored by such high class Shop
men as we have in Cedartown,— but
its first actual use is reported to have
been to stop a striker from ridiculing
a strike-breaker.
Polk county is fortunate in hnving
in Judge Irwin of our Superior Court,
and Judge Tison of our City Court,
men who not only know the law but
who have good common sense along
with it.
The surest way to kill a good law is
to show neither reason nor heart in
enforcing it, and if you add to this
law-breaking methods used by men
sworn to enforce the law it cannot
fail to bring disrespect for the law
itself.

Judge Sibley has done the cause of
justice good service by his pronounce
ment.
Can’t Beat Harris.
The overwhelming defeat of Gover
nor Hnrdwick vitally affects the fu
ture of Senatorial contests and as
pirations in the state.
It was clearly understood before
the returns from tho primnry were in
that the Governor would oppose Sen
ator William J. Hands when the lat
ter comes before the people for re-
election in 1924. The Governor ex
pected to servo two more years in his
present office, meet our Senior Sen
ator in the enmpnign of 1924, and if
successful take his seat in the Sen
ate in 1925.
It wns not n foregone conclusion,
of course, that Governor Hnrdwick
would succeed in his nttempt to dis
lodge Senator Harris, but he had
high hopes nnd would have received
strong support.
But beating Senator Harris is not
going to be an easy job. The reason
is simple enough: He is making one
of the best United States Senators
Georgia ever had.
Senator Harris contrasts striking
ly with most of the men who have
gone to the Senate from Georgia in
the last quarter of a century. Now
and then he makes a speech (nnd ho
has made some good ones,) but he is
not in that rather large category of
members of Congress who like to
hear themselves talk.
Our senior Senator is a worker.
They say in Washington that no Sen
ator works harder —in committees,
in his office, in the departments, and
wherever else there is business to be
looked after. The people of Geor
gia have discovered that Senator
Harris is a most effective "go-get
ter.” When Georgia needs some
thing and asks Senator Harris to get
it, the chances are he will ‘bring home
the bacon.’ Nor does he wait to be
asked to attend to such matters, but
keeps his eyes open for opportunities
to serve his state. He is able, cons
cientious and thorough.
And Willinm J. Harris stands as
high in Washington as any man on
the Democratic side of the upper
chamber. He is appreciated by his
Democratic colleagues, and enjoys
the respect and confidence of Repub
licans. All recognize him as one of
the most earnest, diligent and capa
ble members of the Senate, and the
fact is strikingly revealed many times
during a session of the Senate.
Why remove such a man from an
office so important in order to make
an experiment with another? That
Senator Harris will have opposition
two years hence is probable, but that
he will be dcfeated.no matter what
political line-up may be at that time,
is nothing like so certain. He is mak
ing a record he can well afford to
stand on.—Albany Herald.

Keep Your Eye On
Mundy.
Over in Polk county there is a gen
tleman in public life who is destined
to play an important part in the af
fairs of the state, if alt tha signs
don’t fail. In fact, he has already
taken an outstanding position and has
hnd more than ordinary influence in
shnping legislation in Georgia during
the past eight or ten yonrs. This
gentleman is the Hon. W. W. Mundy,
Democratic nominee for the State
Senate from the Thirty-eighth Dis
trict, and a likely candidate for the
presidency of the upper house of the
state general assembly, The News
has upon more than one occasion
made reference to the admirable
qualities of Mr. Mundy and it is
with pleasure that we quote from hiB
home town paper, the Cedartown
Standard, an intimate sketch of his
public career.
Mr. Mundy possesses those quali
fications that nre needed in public
life. We know of no other man who
has been so prominently in the public
eye of his community for so long a
time without engendering sevare op
position. That alone is a testimonial
to the confidence that tho people have
in him as well as proof of his ability
as a public servant. If the State Sen
ate elects him president of that body,
he will adorn the position in a man
ner that will reflect credit upon the
commonwealths—Romo News.
In this country wo sometimes
speak of things as being “below the
mark.” They can’t do that in Ger
many.
The G. O. P. Congress adjourned
Friday after spending many months
in a monumental display of incom
petency.
The Presbyterian Synod of Geor
gia convenes in Augusta Oct 10th
for a session of three or four days.
Every Presbyterian Minister and an
Elder from every Presbyterian church
in the state is expected to be there.
We are expecting some people in
this country to criticize England for
not going to war single-handed n-
gainst the Turks, when France and
Italy deserted her. Don’t look to us,
though, as if anyone in this country
is in a position to throw rock3. If ev
er capital punishment fitted a crime,
it is in this terrible instance.

PHILOSOPHY
There was a man out In Look
Island a week or so ago who took
a horse around to a chap that runs
ru-.i-aj academy and he offered to
sell the animal at a bargain.
“What’s wTong with it?” asked
ihe riding master. “Why, nothing,”
said the man with the horse. “It'*
really a fine animal for riding or
driving. It’s gentle, lias lots of
spirit and good staying power.”
Fh» riding master asked the man
v .v; lie wanted to sell it. “Well,”
ho said, “my wife now has a baby
r.nd fin^e she has the baby she has
! o time to take care of the horse. ’
There were folk who criticized that
man forgetting that it’s a nice thing
to ! •• kind to animals and see they
fall into £Ood hands. '
