The .Action of the majority of the Democratic Senators, at a re cent caucus, in selecting Senator Clark,e of Missouri, as President Protem. of the Senate, subject to the ratifying vote of the whole when the Senate is formally opened, has caused a great amount of bit ter and uncompromising criticism, The action came as su-h a complete surprise that even the best inform ed politicians were amazed. In Georgia there is, of course, j sincere and genuine regret that the one entitled by all right of prece dent, experience and other qualifi- catione, was ousted from his legiti mate honor. With this criticism has come from many quarters bit ter and scathing denunciations of Hloke Smith, complaining and af firming that he ie really the cause of the defeat of his colleague.

While we are not informed suffi ciently to ascertain truthfully the every move which actuated the election of Senator Clarke, we do not believe that Senator Smith was responsible in any direct way Bacons defeat, nor would we care to offer such an indictment against any man unless there was positive and absolute proof of his perfidy. This was one of the movements whijeh emanated from Bryan, that we have no doubt, but as Senator Smith’s attitude, we are forced to believe that he was abeo lutely sincere in his statements. The latest sensation in this oon nection is the statement of Sena tor Tillman, of South Carolina, The operation of the Webb bill, to prevent the shipment of intoxicat ing liquors into dry states seems to have proven quite what the author of the bill and its many advocates have desired. The bill forbids the shipment of liquor to be used illegal purposes. Blind Tigerism is illegal and iu many instances the snipments have been detected and topped, the quantity being evidence that it was not shipped "for per sonal use.” J xi Georgia, tue question of locker clubs and places of tha: character will be looked into sharp ly and if there is any way to pre vent shipment of wholesale ’quan tities to them it will bo adopted. The near-beer Joints, licensed to sell “near-beer,” and prevented in some instances from selling any but pure stuff, may also have to adopt some twisting tactics to eventually evade the law. The liquor people are, of course, wide awake to the question and the latest circulars from one of the houses that ships thousands quarts into Georgia every day, has the following interesting bit of ad vice: "Mark the package this timo •for personal use,’ to comply with the wishes of Mr. Webb, of Wash ington,” to be followed by the one ordering.

Phil Campbell, State Agent, United States Department of Ag riculture, Cfo. State College of Agriculture, Athens, Ga. Dear Sir: Replying to your let ter of February 23th, ami referring to our conversation with refrence to prizes to be awarded to the members of the Boys’ Corn Club along our line. • It is with pleasure that I advise you that the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad will offer prizes for the best corn production by .members of the Boys’ Corn Clubs, open to boys located along the line of the Atlanta, Birmingham & At lantic Railroad, as follows: General Prizes. First Prize: One A. B. & A. Scholarship, State College of Agri culture, Boys’ Short Course; expenses for two weeks trip and $25.00 In cash. Three Second Prizes: One A. B A. scholarship, State College of Agriculture, Boys’ Short Course. County Prizes. First Prize: Value of $19.00 In agricultural Implements or live stock. Second Prize—Value of $5.00 in agricultural implements or live stock. The winners of General Prizes may also win County Prizes. Yield of one hundred bushels per acre will be necessary to qualify for any of the prizes $10.00 value and over. We have received acknowledge ment of the prizes awarded last year’s crops from a majority of the boys winning them and they seem to be very highly DleaBed. Our prizes, as you will remember, con sisted of a beautiful illustrated book entitled, "Tilling the Soil For Profit and Pleasure,’’ and twenty selected bulletins issued by the Department of Agriculture bound in one volume. These bulletins dealing with the useful phases of agricultural educa tion. We want to encourage the boys in pvery way possible. It Is my view that Georgia is destined to become a .great corn producing state. We are sending entirely too much money out of Georgia for grain and meats, and the education of our boys along the higher’lines of agriculture is abso lutely essential for the progress of Georgia. Increased corn production is, as you so well know, one of the groat necessities of the state. Assuring you that It pleases us to co-operate with you In this great f work, I am, ’ Very truly yours, W.

Arts and Crafts Exhibit. One of the pleasant after-Easter entertainments will be the Arts and Crafts exhibit to the given on the afternoon of the 25th, for the bene fit of the Public Library. This exhibit will be one of great interest to Thomasville people and all others who are Interested ln see ing articles that are unique and old- fashioned. These articles will be lent for the occasion by the people of Thomasville and any others who have old relics pertaining to the history of their families or the country. It will be a surprise to many to find how Interesting a col lection of them there will be on dis play. This exhibit will be held In the Library building, beginning at 3 o'clock and from four to five there will be a very enjoyable musical program, in which several of Thom- asville’s most chaming musicians will take part. There will be other interesting features to this enter tainment which will be announced later. No admission fee will be charged but all attending are expected to make a donation, in money of what ever denomination they wish. A full program of this entertain- mnet will be given later. The Thomasville Lodge of Masons lats night established a record which will not be broken for many days, perhaps years. Fourteen men were given the Fellowcraft degree on that occasion. It was necessary to secure a special dispensation from tho Grand Master, it being first thought that twelve would be given the degree. Two -more were ready and requested that they, too, be allowed the privilege and it was granted. There were at least neventy-flve members of the lodge present and the occasion was a most pleasant one. The officers putting on the work were: R. L. Wylly, W. M.; W. B. Cochran, S. W.; E. R. Jerger, J. W.; W. C. Morgan, S. D.; B. M. Zangwill, J. D.; E. C. Milligan and C. L. Folsom, Stewards. The Thomasville Lodge has estab lished a record for new members in the last state convention and this year will probably be even more prosperous.

The Kind of Woman Who Tempts People to Be Dishonest. In the course of an Interesting discussion of the duties and oppor tunities of married women, pub lished ln the February Woman's Home Companion, appears the fol lowing: “The married woman who sends out her orders over the telephone, lets fier maids receive the goods, and O. K.'s the bills without cheeking them up, may earn her living some other way; she doesn’t earn It as a house-keeper; for ehe tempts tp dishonesty everyone who - deals with her. The butcher finds that he can give her short weight with Impunity. And -when the trades- achtorea wealth, his wife turn is enabled to follow ln her neighbor’s footsteps. Whereupon, the honest butcher across the street may look on enviously and say, ‘Why shouldn't -I begin this short- business? My neighbor prospers.,’ So this moral disease spreads.’’ The Billy Clifford Troupe passed through the city today en route from Quitman to Fitzgerald. They were unable to go via the A.
