Argument Against Judges and Legis lators Accepting Them. Man in California Says Wa Ought to Advertiss- Below'is given the rates for different forms of participating pollcies'offthe several _ ■ companies doing business in this section. Mr. John T. Badger,a former resident of this county and a property owner hero, has recently written to Mr. E. M. Mallette from Santa. Ana Oais. Mr. Boyer is nowjonjthe road and 'is'meot- lug witli splendid saccess. He says his Urn wants him to go to Africa, but he thinks that a cracker had better stay at home. Mr. Boyer says “I tell you, von all tou’t advertise half enough. If I had some booklets of Thomasville I could turn lots of people to Georgia.” He writes interestingly of California. They do not observe dog days out there as he says it has not rained for 18 months and hundreds of cattle aredyiug from tliirst. Snow is alv ays in sight and the nights are cool, but the tern perature reaches to 102 degrees duringthe day. The fruit crop is i failure and many orange groves have been.abandon ed near San Diego. The population of she country is doubled in the Whiter time. Mr. Badger says there are 0000 fiats npw empty in Los Angeles which will be filled this winter. * He closes by saying "this is no place for poor people and Georgia folks had better stay at home.” SMALL FIRE Tenant House on Lower Jackson was Slightly Damaged The fire department was called ont at ten minutes after ten Thusday to re* spotid to an alarm from lower Jackson street. The flro was in the roof of a small tenement house occupied by a •olored woman named Mary Harvey and owned by Col. R E. Lester. The dam age done was slight, and the blaze was pat oat by the chemical extinguisher »nd the hose was uot called^nto service. The department made a good run. They have the regular fire wagon back again In good ropa»r, and are ready for any emergency. It is an old adage in Thomasville that (By J. S. Ward, Jr.) Editor Times-Enterprise: The free pass question is one that will not dowh and will be a bone of conten tion until it is settled right and the sooner our eolons recognize the fact the better it will be for ail concerned. 1 presume that my position on this ques tion has been understood for years, but we should at all times be able to give a reason for doctrine that wo advocate. In opposing the giving of free passes by the railroads to our public officials, I Wish it to be ^understood that 1 am no enemy to the railroad interests of our country. We need them and no ruling or legislation should be so antagonistic as to prevent them from earning e reasonable profit on^the actual invest ment, therefore, if the legislator #fc who enacts or the judge who enforces the laws should become so oxtromely an tagonistic as to rule them out of busi ness instead of being a blessing ^R ould be a calamity to the country, but in reason irg upon this object the first idea that naturally suggests itself is what motive promotes the railroads to give the public servants free passes. It can’t be because those geutlomou have such large busi ness interests that they contribute so ueh more in freights than the common herd for many of them are ‘as poor as church mice. It must be then that they expect it to affect the laws in their be half. Now* the legislature and judge is as much honor bound to do justice to the railroad corporations as he is to the people outside corporations, j. Why? Be cause the railroads are taxed to pay his salacy and run the government as well as the rest of the people. Being* em ployed by both I10 is^honor bound to bo just to both. Right here the corpora tions seek to pnt him under a two-fold obligation by hauling him^around free of charge, and the pnblio has no chance to know whether ho hasjbeou or is in fluenced by a pass or not. Therefore Mr. Editor I do not think the free pass Metcalfe Meotiocs. Miss Bishop of Oehlookonee is a guest of Mrs. J. G, Connell, near town this week.

Mr. fort a ed to simple reason that the people coaid see the anjastaess of the jadgojjtliat would be so foolish as to role against the man (contrary to law) who vigorously op posed aud vice versa for the one that supported him. Now Mr, Editor there may not be the evil iu this question that the people think there is, but we are forced co con clude there is ground for suspicion. A good citizen of this county recently said to me that if he *was a member of the egislature he would accept the pass if tendered him, but when it came to vot ing he would vote just as if he did not have it. Probably this is true with the majority of our officials This communication is certainly not intondod as a fling at any of our candi dates for tho legislature for I have no reason to believe that any of thorn has, or would bo affectedjby a free pass, oppose iu a general way the intent of the practice, and whether tho system has brought fruit for tho railroad or not-the evidence shows that thoy think so or they wohld have long|»ince [abandoned The proposition to force* the rail road to ImuLaround t.ie [official free of cost is injust and a travesty of liberty itself as a litigant in a case at law would not be allowed to give presents to the jury sworn to justly try the case. Neither should tile corporation bo ‘allowed to give presents to the official)llikewhe sworn to justice between [them] aud the common people. As I said iu the outset there may not'be as much iu it as the people think but they are tired of it and tho legislator who longer ignores their demand may wonder where he is at at uo very distant day.

When the Kidneys fail to perform their 1 functions properly by not straining out the poison ous waste matter from the blood as it passes through them, the 'poisons are carried by the circulation to every part of the body, deranging the different organs.
