ATHENS AND HER COTTON WAREHOUSES Atjicns has always onjpyed the distinction of being [' one of the largest inland cotton centers in the coun- [ try. It is in the center of a section that grows a | . splendid staple and genuine northeast Georgia cotton P brings a premium on the market. This year’s cotton crop in this section is larger than last year’s and a large portion of it has been gather* ed and is now in the process of being ginned, pre paratory to selling or storage. This city is the logical f storage and cotton center for northeast Georgia and the warehouse facilities here are ample and safe. If by any chance the confidence of the cotton grow ing public was in any manner affected by failures that involved Athens 'interest this confidence has been fully restored by the prompt action taken to protect at all costs the interest not only of the cotton planter but the manufacturer as well. When the firm of Barrett and Company failed this section was naturally effected because Athens was one of this company’s operating centers, but prompt action on the part of Athens business men saved any iosres whatever hero. By action taken last week an .. order has been issued that frees every bale of cotton r involved here without a loss of a penny to the owners . of the cotton. All that is necessary is for the owners to pay the advances and the storage charges and the cotton is theirs. Of course this fortunate termination of the rituation did not work out itself. Co-operation - and faith in Athens and her business interests helped L‘ to rolve it Sacrifices were made which probably would not have been made elsewhere. Some "un- namad” Athens citizens were so impressed with K maintaining the confidence of the cotton producing, storing and manufacturing public that they put up fifty thousand dollars to stop litigation and hurry the fre cing of the cotton in suit. It probably would have worked out in the due course of time where no losses would have been sustained by anyone but cotton now is felling for a high price and these loyal citizens acted when there could be no possible chance of Joss- 1 e.«. This money they may eventually recover but that wasn't considered, it is taken, by them and what they did should be fully appreciated. As a cotton center Athens remains the important uv, rket of this section and with her facilities for handling an unlimited crop, both as to warehousing and financing, it will continue to hold the confidence of the public. No line of business nor locality Is im- jnunc from commercial failures and in most cases - • t^e losses arc»taken where they fall and few localities tli, re are indeed where confidence la so manifest as it was in adjusting this recent cotton tangle here. Cotton people will find no safer place for their staple than in Athens and this fall should be no excep tion in this Being the cotton center of northeast Geor gia- — THE EXTRA SESSION OF THE LEGISLATURE Today marked the opening of the extra session of the .legislature called by Governor Walker . some piontha since. It has been called for a specific pur- I'.i :te and that purpose is all important to the tax pay ers of Georgia- It is necessary at this session that a t: >. measure bo passed which will enable this state 'io free itself from debt and obligations passed due ;d accruing. ere har ,een much discussion over a tax system is state. There has been many measures pto- which it is said wou Id relieve the condition ive to this state ample funds upon which to con- he business oOthe rtatc without working a bur- on the citizenship. That may be true, but certaln- our representatives should agree on some mea- which would be just and equitable to the tax r and one which would provide a sufficiency for suoport of the state. There is one thing certain, our people will not stand a Jong drawn nut rnnfrnversary between members ocating this or that measure simply because it iper.cd to be of his own making. Harmony must vail and an early adjournment is looked for and .lected by the people. The state is in no financial ndition to bear the expense of a thirty or forty-day sion of the legislature. It is expected of the mem- rs that from this day on, until adjournment, -that every hour will be spent in seriousness and determi nation to formulate a measure which will meet the -eqUircments and needs of the state and contain pro- ‘ ions ample for every dollar needed foit the various te departments and its educational institutions. Political maneuvering and the forming of rings and 'ons for future elections will indeed be unfortu- and the man or men who undertake such a policy doomed forever politically in this state, the busy season of the year; it is the sworn d obligation of every member to use his best efforts to shorten the session and aid in giving to Georgia a tax system which will meet our require- merit- and provide a sufficiency for relieving the ac- ’ cumulated debt and for the keeping of the character of Georgia free from all criticism in the future of be- i ing unable to meet its just dues and obligations.

DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU?

To be in a hurry to get to your place of business or to someone’s else place of business and *to find the person ahead of you. “snaking” it and no matter which way you may try to pass them, the “snake-like” individual blocks you. There are several of these ;“snafce-waikers" in Athens and if their tracks could be traced they would leave a line as crooked as a rail fence. These are “fast times” and when a person occupies a portion of the sidewalk they •hhuld either move on and keep to the right or else get in the streets, and—maybe meet with their just desert by having a friendly auto mobile to tackle them for a first down—a broken arm or a neck.
