that case three men will be named
for the honor, and we want the best

be fixed so that the voter can vote
against or for the new court, and at

Judges. If the people ratify the

cording to news reports Is over forty-

appeals I bad not the slightest Idea
that the amendment would be defeat
ed but I believe now It will. I
think the people will set the seal of
thelV condemnation on the whole ot-
flce-mmklng scheme.
I hope every
body will read a clear cut and logi
cal article by attorney Emory Cason,
showing the need of reform In our
court system. " "
He enters hls protest
against going back towards the old
English system that took us away
trom our kith and kin for trial In a
slenflMA lnnrl Ahw fn'thrtpn KIaA
strange land. Our fathers bled
against this In colonial times and I
feel sure that Thomas county will
sit down heavy on the appelate court
for as 1 said before It Is time to dall
a halt In the whole office making
scheme.
If It had not been for so many ap
propriations the state rate could have
been lowered to f 4.75. As U-hk It
was feared that the rate might have
to be raised on account of the In
creased appropriations. r
It Is a notable tact that the-politi
cal regime that has dominated the
state, tor almost a generation were
not stand patters In the grab game
of office making. They may have
raised the danger slgnnl when ballot
reform or free pass legislation win
suggested but when It came to office
making the cry of “I.et well enough
alone," was changed to "go forward,
we are a growing people and need
more kernels, more capn's, and more
coporals to command and govern
the people.”
In the past partisan rancor and
sectional hate have so obscured the
istio and so prejudiced the mind of
the dverase voter that they have been
sleeving over their rights, while the
grafter and the spoilsman held high
Carnival over their Ignorance and
lethargy. But methlnks there la a

The news from Waycross «ay»
that the state of Georgia is to have

Sam Jones says In a recent article
In the Atlanta Journal:
"The pastors In Atlanta as a whole
will not agree on but one proposition,
and that Is that the devil Is In town.
On the next proposition, as to how
to run him put of town, no tw 0 will
agree. The Methodist preacher will
rise In the meeting and say: ‘Breth
ren, let’s ride the devil out of town
on a rail.’ The Preibyterlan preach
er will rise on the scene and say:
Gentlemen, I believe everything
ought to be done In decency and In
order. ■ Let’s ship him out in a Pull
man car.” The Barptlst preacher
(maybe, Dr. Norcross.) will stand up
and aay: ’Gentlemen, that ain’t the
way tg do It, Let’s take him down
to the river and drown him.’ The
Episcopal rector will then rise upon
the icene and any: ’Gentlemen, If
you run the devil out of town my
members will be so lonesome that I
can’t do anything with them,” or
wordi to that effect"

They call Bryan the peerless. In
Atlanta he was the peered-at.
Hon. 8. A. Roddenbery has re
turned from Atlanta, where he was
one of the speakers at the. Bryan
dollar dinner Thursday night He
made a distinct hit with a humorous
speech.
The seating capacity of the dining
room of the Piedmont is 400 and
that many tickets for the dinner were
told. But abPut 600 more people
crowded into the room and lntery
fared with the progress of affairs.
The crowd was anxious to bear Bryan
add Interrupted a good many of the
speakers who wanted to relieve
themselves ot long-contained elo
quence. Judge Roddenbery did not
attempt any trite platitudes but Jol
lied the crowd along In a way that
made them happy.
The Atlanta Journal haa this to
say of hls speech:
“One of the hits of the evening
was the speech of Hon. 8. A.^ Rod
denbery of Tohmasvllle. Mr. Rod
denbery It not a tall man, but, like
Congressman Hardwick, who Is about
the same flzf, Jie Is full of lire and
eloquence. He Is also a noted
humorist. Mr. Roddenbery was re
ceived with great applause when he
addressed te diners as “Ladles, gen
tlemen and down-trodden citizens of
Georgia.” -
The speaker suggested at the out
set of hls remarks that "Billy”. Hard
wick and “Rube” Arnold be excused
for awhile, that they might address
the overflow meeting on the outside.
He proceeded to nominate (or the
presidency of the United States a
South Georgia candidate, saying,
among other things:
"You horny-handed sons of toll, we
have down In South Georgia a suit
able candidate for this high office.
Wfi always have a suitable candidate,
who is uniformly defeated aa the
years go by. We always give ma
jorities In nil elections ranging from
26,000 to 100,000, according to the
necessity of the occasion. We have
done this from Washington down to
Roosevelt.
“Our South Georgia man has no
special fitness for the office, and no
special convictions on any particular
subject. We can give you a candi
date who will run on any platform,
or on no platform or on all the v:
lous platforms combined. South
Georgia will be, aa It always it, In
perfect harmony about our candi
date, and will proceed to defeat him
with absolute certainty. If we are
out of order In auggeitlng the gen
tleman from South Georgia, we ought
not to put him In the race, and, of
course, we will not do to. It Is en
tirely Immaterial to ui, and aa 1
have before stated, w* will gite any
other gentleman any majority which
we are Informed la necessary.*’
Mr. Roddenbery closed hls speech
with a tribute to Mr. Bryan, and the
promise to give him any sort of a ma
jority which be might designate as
necessary. He was liberally ap
plauded In all parte'of the hall as he
took hls seat.

How to Cure Themselves at Home of
Chronic Diseases.
Their Nature, Cure and Proper Treat-
ment.
Dillingham’s Plant Juice Is es-
pedally adapted to the treatment of
diseases \peculiar to women. TW3
wonderful remedy may always be re
lied upon to effect a complete and
permanent cure. It quickly banishes
the pain and aches of the back, the
awful headaches, the dragging sen
sations and the extreme nervousness
caused by woman’s ills. It acts di
rectly on the muscles, strengthening
the ligaments, quickly creates a
healthy circulation of the blood, and
has an almost magical effect over all
Inflammation of the mucous surfaces.
It should be taken for at least thirty
days. If disturbances are allowed
to continue, It is only a question of
time when they will be productive of
other and more serious troubles.
Many serious operations could be
avoided if Dillingham’s Plant Juice
were only takes In time. It Is es
timated that nine women out of every
ten. over twenty-five years of age,
have some trouble that Is peculiar tp
them, and over fifty per cent of those
under twenty-five years are similar
ly affected. This (a an appalling
state of affairs. It is largely due to
mental worry, overwork and anxiety.
II women would care for themselves
properly, be careful In regard to
catching cold, and take a course of
treatment of Dillingham's Plant
Juice two or three times a year, very
few would have trouble.
From the marvelous effect that
Dillingham's Plant Juice possesses
over all such diseases, it would ap
pear that -Nature had especially In
tended this medicine for the cure of
woman’s Ills. But we notice that
when It is used for dyspepsia, ca
tarrh, kidney troubles and many
other diseases the effect Is equally aa
mi^lc, so we are forced to conclude
that It was made for men and women
alike, to relieve them of their pains
and Ills and keep them healthy and
strong.
