Who cares who occupies the governor’s chair
long as garden sass is plentiful and a bountiful
ackberry crop is assured, says a Georgia ex
ange.
It won’t" do for destructive agencies to tie up
ith each other. Four members of the Swath-
Dre football team have been discharged for eating
e. As between football and the genuine brand
American pie it is hard to tell which has the
vantage.
The Result.
Both sides are Dusy just now telling how it came
•out and forecasting for the future. The News
dared in favor of Smith and in a single editorial
ampioned his cause. Beyond this we tried to
;at both sides alike, giving access to our columns
such paid matter as either side desired to use. We
jly believed and yet believe that Hoke Smith’s
•mination would have been better for all the in
rests of the state than that of Mr. Brown but we
e willing to bow to the will of the majority who
em to have declared otherwise. With that same
irness that we have tried to show in our attitude
retofore we shall try to view with impartial eyes
4y acts of Mr. Brown and shall endeavor to ac
d him credit for whatever is good in his admin
ration.
There are several things it will be well to bear
mind in this contest and its results. Hoke
nith received a larger vote than he did two years
o. The members of the railroad commission
10 were his appointees were re-elected. This
juld seem to indicate that the sentiment for re
rm measures already launched had not dimin
led. The people are not afraid of the men en
isted to adjust their relations with the railroads,
le increased vote was caused, it is probable,
gely, by jealousy, spite and the popular discon
it. Those who seem to have met with tempo
ry success will have to move with great wisdom
and caution if they hold what they have attained,
te eyes of the people are on them. We will all
ve to wait for developements. Let us hope that
ngs will be directed for the best. In the mean*
le the building up of the great material inter
s of our commonwealth is a cause worthy of
i best efforts of every citizen and all can turn
;ir attention in that direction without making
y mistake.
Judge Fite. .
fudge Fite’s fine triumph is a matter of gratifi
;ion to his many, many friends. He has carried
nself through the campaign just closed with
mderful prudence, dignity, self-poise and com
*n sense. He had a hard fight and his friends
pasider it the greatest victory he has yet won.
t e loyalty shown his cause by the people evinces
: confidence they still ha /e in his ability and
blic and private probity. Already people are
king ot Judge Fite going higher and it would
t surprise us at any time for a well ordered
ivement toward that end.

Unless all signs fail the Georgia peach will be
ne even more famous this season than it has
in heretofore. With good weather and the

it everybody in the deal makes money.

THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, JUNE n, 1908
. Failure of The “Gossip Circle.”
Some weeks ago the Rev. Mr. Mcllvray, of Lit
tle Falls, N. V., instituted in his congregation
what he was pleased to call for convenience a "gos
sip.” He invited all the women of his church to
meet at his study once a week for the purpose of a
free indulgence in the gossip of the neighborhood,
and to tell and talk over things that they knew or
had heard about their neighbors. The preacher’s
idea was to concentrate the gossip evil, and to in
duce, by a free discussion, the minimizing of the
condemnation of the faults and foibles of those who
came into the discussion for criticism. The meet
ings were to be presided over by the pastor, who
would open them with prayer and close them with
a benediction.
The Rev. Mr. Mcllvray conducted this "gossip
circle” for as much as three weeks, according to
reports. Each meeting was well attended. The
discussion was never short of animated, and some
very entertaining stories were related and threshed
out. And then the preacher called the whole thing
off and dissolved the circle. In part this is the ex
planation that he made: "The only remedy for
gossip would be to corral the gossipers, investi
gate the conditions of their brains, and distribute
them in appropriate corriders in a lunatic asylum.
In no other way than insanity can I explain
the malevolent gossip of people, espec
ially women who work in churches, lead personally
exemplary lives and are really kind and gentle,
save that they collect, amplify and distribute all
manner of disreputable tales regarding others.”
The subject seems to be one for psycological in
vestigation. The preacher thought he could solve
the problem on a religious basis. He failed. The
failure enlarges the proposition. How far is gos
sip a deterrent of evil doing? To what extent is
it legitimate? What is the duty of a preacher in
these premises, and is it any of his business? —

A Regard for the Beautiful.
■0
How noble it is to place one’s thoughts on beau
tiful things and how beautiful things influence our
lives if we will only let them. The further man
gets away from the savage stage the greater grows
his appreciation for things that are beautiful and
that help to refine us. How great are the influen
ces that are given our lives by the books we read
and by the contact we have with intellectual peo
ple. Beauty and intellectuality conquer evil and
coarse things and give tone and order to our very
existence. School and Home gives us some
thoughts well strung together on that line as
follows:
How many of us have found our minds
changed on a subject, and have been unable to
tell when it changed or what changed it?
Which of us could tell when he first came to
love flowers? or to love a certain flower more
than others? There are a few cases, no doubt
where a person can say, just here my thought
was changed, just in this way my heart was
touched: but in most cases the deep move
ments of our lives take place unnoticed and be
cause of influences that barely come at all into
our consciousness. As the flower is brought to
bloom by the silent fallling dew and the un
heard caress of the sun, our loves mature, our
new ideals are brought to life by still influences
that surround us. Do we wish to fill our lives
with harmony and noble sentiment? Let us
have sweet and noble music often greet our
ears. Do we wish our thoughts and aspira
tions to be high and manly? Let us keep ever
at hand the books of true and great men, and
commune constantly with them. Do we wish
our days to be fertile and our actions to be or
dered and effective? Then let our homes be
orderly and systematic. I>o we wish to fill our
hearts and lives with beauty? Let us surround
ourselves with beautiful things to look upon.
It is an inspiring and a sad thought too that as
we make our habitation our habitation in turn
makes us. Bare walls and desolate door yards
will surely leave their impress upon our lives
and tend to make them empty and desolate.
Let us in every way possible beautify our
homes that they may in turn beautify and en
rich our lives and the lives of our children.
January Or June.
The Atlanta Georgian says:
“Will Joseph M. Brown be inaugurated next
January, instead of June, and will the annual ses
sion of the legislature be changed from June to
January, as formerly?
“That is the rumor in political circles now. So
far it is merely speculation, but several men in
touch with political affairs in Georgia say that it
is by no means improbable that the change will be
made.
“Governor Hoke Smith is quoted as having said
that he would prefer a change to the old winter
sessions of the general assembly. Governor Joseph
M. Terrell vetoed the bill which changed the ses
sions to June, though the assembly passed it over
his veto. It was argued at that time that the sum
mer sessions would suit the members better, but
this has not been hown to be true. Governor
Smith and many of his friends have argued against
the election of legislators and state officials so
many months before the beginning of their term
of office.”
The News claims to be be a pioneer on this idea.
In an editoral written just before the Macon con
vention two years ago we advocated the changing
of the term of the meeting of the legislature in Jan
uary. This wovld cut Governor Smith’s term six
mynths but he is a big enough man to submit to
that.

Plain Talks on Fertilizers
A Talk to Fruit-Growers
You use a fertilizer
of course, but do you
use enopgh ?
The yield per acre,
and the profit therefrom
increases in far greater
proportion than the cost
of additional fertilizer.
What is an increase in
cost of $2.00 to SIO.OO
per acre for fertilizer
when the returns therefrom
show an increase of $50.00 to
$250.00 per acre?
The big Magnolia Fruit
Farms at Durant, Miss., tested
the well-known Virginia-Car-
olina Fertilizer
in different
quantities o n
their straw
berry crop.
Result: when
1,000 lbs. per
acre were used
the profit was
$75.00 more per
acre than when
50 0 lbs. per
acre were usedT
This is modem intensive cul
