DEMOCRATS SHOULD VOTE
FOR DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES
Republicans Are Endeavoring to Pat
la Republican Session
Atlanta^ Ga.—Democrats all over
Georgia aro urged to be on guard
against opposition to then ominces of
their party ns an effort is going to
be made by- the Republicans to olbct
a United States Senator in the gener
al election to be held on November 6.
Every Democrat in Georgia will be
urged to go to the polls on that day
without fail and vote for the nomi
nees of his party, so as to make sure
that no Republican shall be elected
to any office thrpugh carelessness or
failure of the Democrats to uphold
their primary.
The recent movement in Washing
ton to fix a price on cotton'was in
spired by Republican leaders. In
most of the northern states, and es
pecially those where the textile in
terests are strong, Republican candi
dates are making a great issue out of
cotton price-fixing.
Thanks to the determined opposi
tion on the part Of southern members
of congress, the movement was de
feated. William J. Harris, nomiaeo
of the Georgia Democrats, went
Washington and held conferences
.With President Wilson, the War la
dnstrles Board and members of the
cotton committee. Mr. Harris work
ed night and day in opposition te
ixing the price. Southern Senators
from other states also entered strong
protests. The effort to fix a price es
eetton was abandoned.
Mow the Republicans have put out
a candidate for the United States
Senate and will probably have other
candidates in the running in this
state. 1 •
Georgia farmers need not expect
any friendly help from the Republi
can party. If the Republicans should
elect a majority of the members of
the national house and senate, they
would fix the prlco of cotton at not
exceeding twelve cents a pound. For
tunately for Georgia, it has now a
senator, William J. Harris, who may
he depended on to prevent any un
just discrimination against Georgia
and southern industries.
The Correct . Proportion
of Air to Fuel
N O matter whether it is a gasoline en
gine, an automobile, a farm tractor, or a
, kitchen range, the case is just the same. Unless
enough air is mixed with the (uel gas your enginp or range
will waste fuel and have less power.
On the farm or in the shop. Father's
tools are the most efficient obtainable. He wouldn’t
use an engine that wasted half its fuel.

COLE’S S RANGE
This range with its down draft (Hot
Blast) system. oi combustion, uses exactly 'the
proper amount of air. The fuel and fuel gases are burned.
The (uel gases arc not allowed to escape up the chimney as
in all bottom draft ranges. This means that you can bum
any available fuel, and also means no: only a guaranteed fuel
saving, but a cleaner, evener >.cat and a perfect baking oven.
This range is alsc built to last, with mal
leable iron in pr.rt? that are subject to breakage,
and copper alloy iron si: parts that are subject to rust. These
features are not found on any other range of this price.

with hia cold waxen features frozen
in hate; he wasn’t long dead, when
he found’to his cost, that hia map.of
the next world and passports were
lost.
.So leaving this earth to Heaven
went straight, jauntily strutting right
up to the golden gate; but the look
out angel in voice strong and clear,
said, "Begone Kaisjy^ William, we
don’t want you here.”
Well, thought William, “That’s
very uncivil.” Does he mean I must
go straight to the devil?” So he
turned on his heel and ol? he did go,
running frill speed to the regions be
low.
But when he got there, hew as fill
ed-with dismay. For while waiting
ontside he heard Satan say to his
imps: “Now look here boys, I give
you all warning, I’m expecting the
Kaiser down this morning.”
"But don't let him in, for to me it
is clear, we're far too good for the
mongrel down here; if he gets in,
there'll be the dickens to pay, for bad
as I am, he’s much ^rorse any day.”
“Oh, Satan, dear friend,” the Em
peror cried, “Excuse we for listening
while waiting outside, if you don’t
let me in, then where can I go?” “In
deed,” said the Devil, "I really don’t
know.”
* “Oh do let me in, I’m feeling .quite
cold. If money you want, I’ve plenty
of gold. Just give me a corner, no
matter how hot.” "No” said the Dev
il, most certainly not”
We don’t let apartments for riches
or pelj; there’s some sulphur and
matches, make a hell for yourself."
| Then he kicked William out and van
ished in smoke, and just at that mo
ment the Kaiser awoke.
I He jumped out of bed in a shiver
ing sweat, and cried, “Gosht that
| dream I shall never forget. That I
1 won’t go to Heaven, I know very well
i but it’s awfully bad to be kicked out
of hell.”

MORE RIGID BANK EXAMINA
TION
Atlanta, Ga.—Instead of making
the examination of state banks the
particular duty of a particular offi
cial, and giving him the time to do
his work thoroughly, Georgia loaded
this'duty on the state treasurer as a
sort of incidental side-line, with the
result that Georgia bank examiners
sre not famous for their thorough
ness, and Georgia bank failures are
a great deal more numerous than
they ought to be. In the general elec
tion to be held November 6, the peo
ple will vote on a proposed constitu
tional amendment authorizing the
legislature to remedy this situation by
providing a more thorough and syste
matic and business like examination
of the banks. This amendment is
entitled as it will appear on the bal
lot, “Amendment to Paragraph 2,
Section 2, Article 5 of the Constitu
tion, fixing Treasurer’s salary and
clerical expenses of the office.” Of
course a bank failure helps nobody,
except in some cases a fraudulent
bank official, and nearly always it
hurts the depositors. Thorough buk
examination by the state will redaat
the number of bank failures. Thor
ough and frequent examination by tke
federal government of national basks
is proof of this statement, aa they
rarely fail.
Building the Pyramids. .
In looking at pictures of the pyra
mids and the Sphinx everyone ha> won
dered how these great monuments
conld be built in an age wben there
was no such thing as a steam derrick.
Discussion upon the point has run
through the centuries.
An English engineer has hit u;gm
what appears to be the true explana
tion. His opinions are supported by
the evidence of. andent Inscriptions
on tombs end temples. This engineer
states that in building a pyramid the i
Egyptians constructed an lndlned
roadway to the level of which the wolk
had reached.
As the pyramid grew taller the an-'
gle of the road constantly grew steepefi
and Its length greater. Up this road
way passed all the material required
In building the pyramid, hauled by
slaves and. pack animals.
