Here Shall the Press the People's Rights Maintain V JOHN M BROWN. BAINBRID BE. 6E0RCIA. THURSDAY MORRINC, JUNE IS, 1908, Vol. 39—No. 16—Sl.eo a Year r A.. —A.- ^ — - - -- EDITORIAL ,J- ,, .v rnor Hughes makes a mighty j , ,i :; .ce starter.—Savannah Press. \Vi. v? Is the governor an old baclp'ior? o A Hoston girl is said to have six ne-iarate and distinct personalities. Ti« ueedeless to add that she is a “nt'vr woman,” and has a number oi exemplars—in some respec’s — much nearer home than Boston. “The vermiform appendix is ab solutely useless,” sayB the Wash ington Herald. Not so, for what would the world now be siying of Georgia’s political condition, tor she* is evidently suffering with political apendicitis, and without the very vermiform attachment, so recently made manifest, diagnosis would be most difficult. lion. Joe Hill Hall goes back to the legislature from Bibb. What, say,* the Axgusta Chronicle, would th'' legislature be witbou Joe Hill Hall? One thing is true, it would be a more pc arable sar.e an ; savoury \tmther scientist ha? come ier* ward with the announcement that ti.i sun is gradually cooling off and that posterity will freeze to death, btr it is very difficult to be very much impressed with such prognos- ii^tVms as long as we are to have campaigns as hot as the one which closed on the 4th o* June. 'Notwithstanding his defeat, Gov. Smith received nearly ten thousand more votes in the primary than he did in ID06. This shows that the oppos tion to him was not the spon taneous affair that the Joe Brownies would make believe, but was born of a carefully planned and vigorous 1 ly executed scheme ot retaliation. Has anybody noticed that there have been few assaults in Georgia since prohibition was obtained? Turn sack to the records made in June a year ago, two vears rgo, three, four, five and six years ago ana say if we are not compensated a thousand times over, taking noth ing else into acsount. “The people paid a high tribute to themselves in passing through as warm a campaign as the one which has just closed without a single personal collision, so tar as we are aware.—Ex. They should i ay tribute to pro. lubition, or what is more to the point, to people who are^responsible lor prohibition. There were fome exceptions to the rule of sobriety and decency. In some instances liquor was used and vote buying practiced, but they were isolated instances. It was Georgia’s soberest election. The Joe Brown management should not fee? bad over the decli nation of Judge Callaway and Ed;* tor Pendleton. There are a whole lot of the faithful left, who are will* ii.ir to accept positions of honor, trust or emoluments, as the case may t»p.—Macon News. It is rather an evidence of moral ■in' m the gentlemen named we ' ike it. that they decline. At the end cf his first term Presi dent Cleveland was defeated about as Governor Smit' was defeated. Later he was re- elected bv an oven whelming majority over the same man who had defeated him at the end of his first term. Our predicts tion is that IIi ke Smith will be the strongest and most pooul r man in Georgia in less than' two years Nobody doubts his ability, every, body knows ol his great energy and indomitable will, and principles for which he stands will live far beyond m tin* effect ot the recent election. Already some prominent Geor- bome three or tour cars of Thomas . i .. l^o.i .i T„,.c gians are predicting that a Johnson county melons were loaded lties- | - n => •lav.

Want of Discipline. A lack of discipline is one great curse of this age of the world. In the family, tbe school and the colleg youngsters grow un to do as they please. There is a mawkish sentiment which is evidence of de generacy and which prevents the old .fashioned, wholesome enforce ment of authority among children and youtu. It is not good for so*, ciety and not good for the individ* uals. In every family a^d in every school it is desirable to have some stringent regulations, if for no other reason than having them complied with. The best foundation for characterh the habit of submission to authority, and the tun# to acquire that habit is in childhood and youth. None can ever become so comp lent to wisely direct as those who have first earned to obey. The looseness and instability of fami’y discipline and in the insistence of silly and inefficient parents that the same looseness of discipline shall be carried in the schools, from which it easily extends into the colleges. The fledgeling in college will turn out a much more useful member of society if be is made to behave hi mi self or clear out. cracy. But Governor Johnson is nea'er being a tariff reformer than Mr. Bryan. Mr. Roo.-evell now has but a few j days left lu which to make his third and final declaration that he will not accept a renomination. But he is not improving the opportunity, and if he runs he will be re-elected. Tom Watson’s interest in the Democratic party is limited by the extent to which he can make mis chief within his ranks. His nomina. tion for the 'vice-presidency on the Democratic ticket would be about as appropriate as the suggestion of a Methodist hishop for Pope of Rome. — Herald. Business Scholarships.

Henceforth The Democrat is in favor of the county and city jointly nyng voting machines, election day. It consumed part of Tnursday and all that night to count the results ot' au election in which only 2,200 votes were cast, divided up in 12 precints. Then to consolidate that number of votes it occupied the executive com* mittee from 12 o’clock to 2:30. In New York State, and other states where voting machines are used, it would requi e about five ruinates to get. the entire resuP, number of votes cast, how many each candidate received and the consolidated vote, no matter wheths er it is 2,000 or 200,000. There are no ballots to print and count, no keeping tally, or any of the cler cal work that is necessary for such elections as was held Thursday. And the voting is so easy. No getting a ballot from tbe managers and going off to figure on who to vote for and who to scratch, no keeping the clerks busy in dropping the tickets iu a box, and all that sort ot thing. There are managers, of course, but the voter goes into tbe preemet, pushes a button against the name ot' the candidate he wants to vote for and that’s all there is to it, no mat* t r how many names on the ma chine. Wich these machines, when the hour for closing conies all that is to be done is fo one oi the managers to give a turn or so oi a crank, hkc a cash register, and out drops a panted *lip with all tie votes on it, ready tor the record. Enough money was spent last election sn bal’ots and clerk hire to buy enough machines for the city and county to last a lifetime. kidney The Atlanta Constitution wants Bryan -:nd Watson for the Demo- j 95*. era?ic national ticket Does Clark) mTirmH PlilMrilin Howell intend to succeed Joe j BETTER THIR SPIRKIRSn Prown, and is this ins method of spanking does not core children of bed* n'acating the Populist Warwick ot wetting.

Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, iscourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerful ness soon disappear when tbe kidneys arc out cf order cr dis eased. Kidney tree" le has become so prevalent that it is not uncom mon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kidneys. If the old urinates too often, if the urine scalds q flesh, or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet ting, depend upon it, the cause of the diffi culty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment ot these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition oi the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miser able with kidney and bladder trouble and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect ot Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sob! by druggists, in fifty- cent and one-dollar Size bottles.
