The Senate can scarcely afford to

’ The tax Increase of South Georgia

FEVER INFECTION.
The dread scourge yellow fever has
nude Its apptaranre In this country
and every one reads with Interest all
reports from the Infected districts.
So far Georgia Is free from the plague
and from action of her cities Intends
to remain sq: Savannah, Brunswick,
Columbus and Bainbridgs bars Insti
tuted quarantines. The nature of
the disease has for yean been the
subject of careful study by the medi
cal fraternity. For a long time It wu
supposed that the fever wu com
municated by contact with articles
of clothing, food and the like that
bad been need by patients. Then
came the theory of U. C. Sanarellt of
Infection by "bacllus lcterolds.” The-
tatest theory and one supported by
much evidence i> that, yellow fever
can be transmitted by the mosquito
.nd always and only by mosquito. The
particular variety referred to Is the
'■tepomyla fasclate.”
The theory has strong support,
peclally through the experiments of
MaJ. Walter Reed of the United
8tates army In Havana. Here non-
Immune* were exposed to articles
used by patients,, slept on bedding
used by patients and In no cue* were
they Infected. Only by the bite of
the mosquito was the disease com
municated. As a reult of Major
Reed's experiments yellow fever was
driven from Havana.
It the theory Is corect It bears
great hope for the stamping out of
the disease, ultimately by unitary,
observances which will do away with
the breeding of mosqnltoei. It pre
rents the spreading of the plague
where the patient la screened and
Isolated.While It bears small hope for
the present In New Orleans, owing
to miserable sanitary conditions It
makes Interference with commerce
unneccaury- The merchants and
mannfacturers association of New Or
leans is carrying on acampatgn ol
education along these lines and hopes
to accomplish great god. Certainly
no harm can come from proceeding
on this theory.

PROSPERITY TRIUMPHANT.
It looks like we are going to hare
s prosperous fall and winter. To be
gin with there are more chances for
prosperity 10 South Georgia
other place In the known world.
Things looked bine awhile back. The
price of cotton tried to get to the
bottom of the well. The watermel
on crop didn't come up to expecta
tions. But say that and you have
told the tale of troubles They are
quarreling now as to whether Prov
idence or the Southern Coton As
sociation la to be erdlted with the
high price of the staple. In the mean
time the farmer* are taking the goods
the goda provide and questioning not
their source. Then the pear crop Is
profitable and canesyrup will doubt
less bring a lofty price. So our fall
anil winter prosperity seems to be all
wool and a yard wide.
Another thing that shows "where
we are at,” It the tax digest. The
increase In taxable values la some
thing absolutely unparalleled and
almost ■iA as to stagger belief,
moat too good to be true la the way
people feel about It. Of course
South Georgian leads the van. Our
owu sturdy county standi solid with
her regular half million Increase.
Our neighbors go forward with leaps
and bounds. The roll of honor reads
Brooks $600,000, Colquitt $750,-
000, Dougherty $700,000 and Mit-
chel, Decatur and Worth each with
more than a million. The Importance
of thii cannot be overestimated,
means more results from the same
taxed*or the same qeaulta from less
taxes. Truly all goes well In South
Georgia.
YOUR VERY BEST.
Did yon ever think what a world
this would be If things were done
right all the time? For Instance Just
now wo sll have a spasm of cleaning
up and fighting mosquitoes because
Jronxe John stalks around In tbe land
But we ought to be so clean all the
time that we need not take these ex
tra steps in periods of distress.
When we get sick the first thing
we do Is to call tho doctor. Tbe
medlcln i he gives us helps, bat the
main factor la our recovery la pure
food of tbe right kind eaten at tbe
rlgbt Bme, regular habits, sleep and
pure air. No sooner do we recover
han Mick we go to tbe old habit*,
of unseeable food, irregular hours.
»nd tho like. But we ought to act
tMe othsr wiy all the time.
When our business gets In a tight
place oi fierce competition arises
we give H our best attention and
hardest v.ork until we pull out of the
lole or our compei.'lor doses. Then
we slip back Into our old lax ways.
Tbe old nursery maxim adjured ua
"do our' best, our very best and
do It every day.” But It you count
up the peoplo who really do that
ou will find them In a lonesome
minority. This Is Just another In
stance of laxy old hamannature It
patho’.ic fact that It la so much
easier to do wrong then to do right
