Against Radicals
| The National Association of Rail*
Jway and Utilities Commissioners mot
Ifcn^ Washington, D. C., November 9th,
Is This association is made up of rep
resentative men from each of forty-five
states; these men are selected by the
people of tjiese states to study the
operation's of public utilities and to
<egulate their tales and practices.
(They are not interested in the cor
porations which they control, but they
represent the public, and speak al
ways in the interest of the public
welfare. They have given many
years of stud, to the problems of the
various corporations which under their
f regulation furnish the street rail
way, gas and electric light and power
service to the public of the United
States, and by reason of their ex
perience they are qualified, better
than any other men of the nation, to
apeak with authority as to what is
! t>est for the public interest. The Rail
road Commission cf Georgia is one
of the members of the Association
and was represented at the meeting.
The following quotations are from
'the reporjt of the Committee of this
[Association on Public Ownership and
and are of interest to ev
lery Georgian:
’ y The question of private ownership
with regulation as against public
•ownership without regulation should
no longer be considered by intelligent
[i investigators an open question.
“If the real facts might be ascertain
ed and the same test applied to the
publicly-owned and operated utility
as is applied by regulatory bodies to
the owned and operated
utility, the general result will apply
in all instances.
‘‘lt, seems remarkable that any sane
man with a knowledge of the increase
in all costs cf living should thir.lc or
expect that untility corporations
might bo an exception to the general
rule. No reasonable man has thought
so.
, “The operation oi these general
laws has again produced the politi
cal agitator who has sought and i3
seeking to make political capital out
of present necessities. We all know
him and we all understand his mo
tives.”,
“It stands to reason that no busi
ness enterprise dependent upon the
varying changes cf political thought
•can be operated by the public in as
efficient, methodical and careful a
manner ns can a similar business en
terprise managed by a body of men
•who hav their capital invested there
in or Who represent those who have
invested their fortunes therein.”
i “There are two classes of people
opposed to private ownership with
Government regulation.”
. "One is made up of the classes of the
Communist, the anarchist and all
ethers who fo"oic the divers and va
■rioup governmental vagaries with
•which they seek to supplant our con
stitutional government. The other
general class is the dreamer, the vi
•mionary who deals in ideals not facts.
“Destroy private ownership with
regulation and the next step
is government ownership and govern
ment operation. When that time
comes, if it does, our system of gov
ernment will have changed to meet
it." r
j Would Load Georgia With Debt
To add any comment to these strong
%rords from the Association of Rail
way and Utility Commissioners of
forty-five states seems like sacrilege,
Ibut you are reminded that the Muni
cipal League of Georgia is dominated
iby James L. Key, Marion M. Jack
son and John J. Eagan, all members
®f and inspired by the Publie Owner
ship League of Amercia, a Chicago
organization of radical Socialists, and
that these agitators who are howling
shout water power development and
low rates for street car, gas and elec
tric service, are the agents in Geor
gia of a political organization seeking
to destroy our democratic form of
Government and they are brazen
enough to ask that many generations
of Georgians be loaded with debt and
taxes to enable them to begin their
operations. They want the Legisla
ture to vote them hundreds of mil
lions of the State’s money so that
they may make an experiment in
pu v Mc ownership of private business,
whwh experiment has failed wherever
tried.
Raid Treasury for Politicians
They want Georgia to place its
fcredit for hundreds of millions of dol
lars in the hands of the three leaders
of the Municipal League of Georgia,
men who have no knowledge of the
fcusiness of public utilities, and who
■imply want to raid the treasury of
Georgia and with it build a political
machine at the expense of the peo
Ole. j
A -Judicious Inquiry.
A well known traveling man who vis
its the drujytrade, says he has often
heard druggists ask a customer, who
wished to buy a cough medicine, wheth
er it was, for a child or an adult and
if for a child, they almost invariably
recommended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. The reason for this is that
they know there is no danger from it
-and that it always cures. There is
not the least danger in giving it and for
colds, croup and whooping cough it is
unsurpassed.
Don’t forget the time —Friday even
ing at eight o’clock.
Remember the wedding next Friday
dfrening at the school house.

East Nashville, Tram.— The effic
iency of Thedford’s Black-Draught, the

vouched for by Mr. W. N. Parsons, a
grocer of this city. “It Is without
doubt the best liver medicine, and I
don't believe I could get along without
It I take It for sour stomach, head
ache, bad liver, indigestion, and all
other troubles that are the result cf
a torpid liver.
"I have known and need it for years,
end can and do highly recommend It
to every one. I won’t go to bed with
out it in the house. It will do all it
claims to do. I can’t cay enough for
it”
Many other men and women through
out the country have found Black-
Draught Just as Mr Parsons describes
•—valuable in regulating the liver to
its normal functions, and in cleansing
the bowels of impurities.
Thedford’s Black-Draught liver medi

HI, _ foER NEWS
JULIAN J. ROSS
ANNIVERSARIAN
The following very complimentary
notice of a Winder boy appeared in a
recent issue of the Macon News. Jul
ian’s many friends in this city are glad
to note his success in his college career
at the University:
In the competitive try-outs for Anni
versarian Julian J. Ross, of Winder,
won the honor in the Demosthenian lit
erary society and W. H. Stephens of
Savannah in the Phi Kapa. Of all the
speaking honors in the University that
of Anniversaries is perhaps considered
the highest and is attended with more
formality than any other. One speaker
is selected from each society to speak
in chapel on the night of Fepruary the
21st in commemoration of the found
ing of the two societies.
The contenders for these places are
left to their own discretion in select
ing the subjects for their oration but
are supposed to write them themselves.
Both of the winners of these places
are of high standing in the University
and rate among the best speakers in
college.

Port Tampa Man Says Tanlar Has
Put Him in (lie Very Pink of Con
dition.
“I am satisfied Tanlac is a great
medicine, for I have giveu it a fair
trial and it lias proved iu my case that
it will do the work.” declared Robert
Greene, of Port Tampa, Fla., in an aw
ful run-down condition. My nerves
seemed to be on edge all the time and
just kept me restless and upset. My
appetite went back on me, my stomach
was all out of order and several times
I had acute attacks of indigestion, and
my liver was sluggish. I was simply
all in and just felt that I didn't have
any energy left.
"One of my friends recommended
Tanlac to me about a month ago, and
it has done everything I expected and
even more, and to day I call myself in
the very pink of condition. I want to
be eating all the time now, and every
thing my appetites calls for digests
properly without any bad effects at all.
My nerves are good and strong and I
sleep sound all night long. My strength
and energy have come buck and I can
put in full time at work now. Tanlac
has put me iu tine shape and 1 believe
it will do the same for any man that
gives it u fair trial.”
Tanlac is sold in every town by one
good druggist.

MEDICAL SOCIETY
ADVANTAGES PUBLIC
The Medical Association of Georgia
is a very old organization and has on
its roll many of the best physicians
of the state. It holds annual meet
ings, and besides has district and
county societies. This Association
one from which the people derive
great benefit, as the meeting togeth
er of our physicians must bring out
many things that will be of interest
to every doctor, and the rapid ad
vancement of the science makes it al
most a necessity.
In its Public Health section the pre
vention of disease and sanitation are
discussed and the newest thouhgt is
debated. The fact as to whether or
not a physician is a member of his
County Medical Society goes a long
way as an endorsement as to his
professional standing.
The next annual meeting of the As
sociation will be held In Rome the
4th to 6th of May. We would be glad
to see every physician in our county
enrolled in the Society. There is an
other advantage that we might men
tion, and that is that every member
receives the Journal, a monthly de
voted to medicine. This is furnished
free to ail members. Membership in
the State Association is based on the
local society.

NOTICE. , j p
DID YOU KNOW THAT:
The physician or midwife who was
the attendant at the birth of a child
and did not filo a birth certificate
within 10 days with the local regis
trant of the district in which the child
was born, is guilty of a misdemeanor
and is liable to a fine of not less
than $5.00 or more than $50.00, and
for the second offense is liable to a
fine of not less than SIO.OO or more
than SIOO and imprisonment at the
discretion of the court? And yet some
people claim that there is no penalty
for violation of the Vital Statistics
Law.
DID YOU KNOW THAT:
The law prohibits the burial oC any
dead person until a complete death
certificate has been filed and a burial
permit has been secured, and that
the person whether he be an under
taker or not Is liable to a fine of not
lees than $5.00 or more than $50.00
If he buries a person without thlß per
mit?
During the past "two years many let,
ters have been written calling the at
tention of the physicians, midwives,
undertakers and all persons concerned
to this law. In the future all viola
tions will be presented to the Grand
Juries for Investigation. When the
Grand Juries in the several counties
meet the Solicitor will be furnished
with a list of the Local Registrars
and he will be advised that these of
ficers can furnish the Grand Jury with
Information upon which to base their
Investigations. If you have been neg
ligent the Local Registrar prefers for
you to file such certificates for the
only way he can protect you is to
swear a falsehood before the Grand
Jury or misrepresent the facts and
you certainly do not expect that of
him.
Yours truly,

State Registrar and Secretary Stats

MEASLES.
Do you know that the peak of the
mortality curve for measles comes
during February and March and that
of scarlet fever probably runs paral
lel with this? Measles is often con
sidered by a careless public as a
very unimportant factor in the life of
a community. It takes its deadly toll
from the children of Georgia each
year and at this season of the year
It Is at its worst. Protect your chil
dren from Infection by insisting upon
the close quarantine of cases of mea
sles. No disease comee in the course
of the normal development of the
child; every child that has measliuL
is retarded in growth or has definM
defects as a consequence. So, too,
scarlet fever, but this is not as
alent as measles and is therefore not
so serious a problem, ev£n though
much fear is attached to it; if moth
ers feared measles as much as they
do scarlet fever there would be fewer
deaths from measles and fewer chil
dren would go through life handicap-,
ped at the start, ■
