THE BEAVERS TRIAL
Atlanta is a great city. It was made so by the forward look
ing, fair minded, energetic men and women who reside there.
Every patriotic citizen of Georgia, whether at home or abroad,
points with pride to the capital city of Georgia, the metropolis
of the South. Its achievements reflect credit upon the entire
state.
James L. Beavers is the chief of police of the city. His active
enforcement of the laws has made for him a number of bitter
enemies. At the same time his Splendid character and fearless
discharge of his duties have given the man a high raVik in the
estimation of the people of the south from which no group of poli
ticians can demote him.
Now, after a life time of service, comes his reward!
A passing group of officials in charge temporarily of the
affairs of the city drag him up for trial before a jury whose ver
dict can apparently be written now.
The laws give to a criminal even the right to demand that
an indictment state specifically the crime with which he is
charged. A careful reading of the indictment against Beavers re
veals no one ground upon which his demotion or removal from the
force can- be fairly based.
The people outside of Atlanta arc not concerned about Beav
ers, the man. But they are vitally concerned about Beavers, the
official. His conviction would have a most depressing effect upon
law enforcing officials throughout the state.
It is to be hoped that the non-factional people of At
lanta will demand a fair deal for the official on trial. Atlanta
owes this to the rest of the state.
DON’T PLANT TOO MUCH COTTON
Commissioner B. Harris, of the South Carolina state depart
ment of agriculture, commerce and industries issues a note of
warning against planting too great an acreage of cotton in that
state. According to Mr. Harris, it may be argued that there is
. no danger of a surplus of cottcn so long as the boll weevils’ rav
ages remain unchecked. Rut they should remember that it has
been demonstrated in oilier states and also in South Carolina, that
cotton can be grown In sections when the weevil is present.
“The farmers must take care to raise a crop that is not too
, large to be sold at a profit. Suppose, for example, the South’s
crop in the year just closed had been a normal crop, what price
would cotton be bringing now ? I venture to say that, it would be
trouhd eight cents. ; •; .J
"We are told that tho world i3 facing a shortage of row cot-
t ton material. But, in many, instances, the statisticians who tell
us that are considering that -our foreign markets are able to con
sume as much cotton now as they did before the war. Does any-
ono believe that Germany can buy from the Southern farmer the
same quantity of cotton now that she could and did before the
lall of 19147 The idea i/, of course, preposterous. Then, why
• should we raise cotton for Germany?”
Commissioner Harris urges greater diversification of crops
at of immediate economic importance^ and he contends that farm
ing can be made more attractive to| the young people of the
South if growing all cotton is replaced in pnrt by the production
of other necessaries of life. He is opposed to the suggestion of
colonizing farmers on unused Southern land. He expressed the
hope that the native stock of the South would eventually turn
back to the farm, declaring that the growing movement to the
cities is an alarming symptom that should be considered seriously
by the leaders oflnction ol the counrty. We have the purest
Anglo-Saxon stock in the'world in the South and it should not bo

I daily receive Inquiries from
