Governor Candler on Monday last issued his proclamation setting aside Thursday November 28th as n day of Thanksgiving, to be observed throughout the stale. There is money in the s':gar cane industry in South Georgia and tl e following from the Valdosta Times should call the attention of every fanner in this section: “If there bad been enough seed cane saved tn this section of the state last year to have guaranteed a s fheient quantity of cane to a sugar refinery this year, there is not the slightest doubt but that a sugar refinery wo Id have been operating ere this time. Tne situation was fully canvassed by men and by agfents of men who had the money to invest. A meeting was held in Valdosta to lake up the mat ter and a perfect census was taken of all the cane in this county and seulion. It was found that less than enough was planted to supply the plant moro than six months.” The Times then proceeds to an nounce the probability of the estab lishment of a sugar refinery in that town in ease enough cane is raised to justify the expenditure, and urges its farmer readers to save seed uane enough to greatly increase if not double their acreage next. year. What is true in Lowndes county is applicable to every county South Georgia; we have aa tine su gar cane lands in Decatur comity may be found in the statevand Bam bridge would prove a good point for locating a refinery. One of the great troubles in the development of the sugar cane in dustry ill this section is the manu facture of the raw material into syrup. With limited means and machinery, the average farmer finds too much expense attached to manu facturing it. With a refinery in reach the farm- mer will he able to sell his cane as it grows either in the field or deliv ered at the refineries. This would of course make it possible for farmers to pldut large areas in sugar oann whereas they at present can market only small amounts owing to the difficulty of manufacture.

Alabama’s ratification of her new constitution puls nil end to negro domination m the blauk belt of that stale. Fortunately Geargia has uo siiuh belts and really lias little or no use for legislation along this line. A white primary seems to fill the re quirements. Under the present provisions for raising the State School Fund there are 111 uoiintn s in the state that fail to pay their own expenses while the remaining ones have the burden to bear. The same condition exists as to the p uision funds and our law makers should if possible address 1 lh*ir efforts to the correction of this state of affairs. The oheif provisions of Alabama’s new constitution are: Education or property qualification for suffrage; A governor, Lemt. Governor and state officers with four year terms, and fixed quadrennial sessions of the legislature. It reduces the limit of taxation to f>5 per cent and require a fixed appropriation for*public schools. It prohibits lobbying an 1 the p chased and sale of votes at elections, and declares it unlawful for any leg islator or judge to accept a free pass of a railway company.

Fancy and Faml GROCERIES » A Macoti woman recently j imped from a street car trying to outoli a man, and broke her neck. The Thoniasville Times-Enterprise cites this as a lesson to the woman who is always trying to catch a man: If slio fails its iiecn se her neck’s “broke” and she goes “dead,” while on the other hand if she succeeds the man gets “it in the neck” and goer “dead broke.” An exobange says: “The young man who is proud of Ins wife be cause of her domestic attainments Inis more sense than the sociologists. Give ns first a well ordered bom presided over by a woman who has a genius for “housekeeping,” and then we may consider Beethoven, Keali Browning and the contemplation of n good dinner eveu tolerate liudyard Kipling.” The Georgia Legislator might do well to fight shy the thr .sting of constitutional convention upon the suite. At present the people of Georgia do not want and certainly tlio situation does nut justify s oil a move.
