SENATOR GRIFFITH SPOKE
fc FOR SLATON SATURDAY
In the interest of Governor J.
$L Slaton's candidacy for the
United State senate ex-Senator
E. S. Griffith of Buchanan spoke
here Saturday afternoon. He
filled an engagement for Govern
or Slaton who was unable to be
present at that time.
A fair sized crowd greeted the
speaker who was well received.
He devoted his time to an expla
nation of the new tax law, which
he said he thought would prove
a good thing for the state.
Senator Griffith criticised Tom
Felder for resigning at a time
When the state needed his servi
ces in important litigation. Tom
Hardwick came in for a roast for
neglecting his post in Washing
ton during the present session of
congress.
It is the opinion of Slaton sup
porters that the address of Sen
ator Griffith made some new
friends for Governor Slaton in,
his present campaign.

F. S. ETHERIDGE ATTENDS"
THE COTTON CONFERENCE
PLANS ON FOOT TO SAVE COTTON
CROP TO FARMERS OF THE SOUTH
Goes As Representative of Georgia Bankers Asso
ciation-Spirit of Optimism Pervades the Meeting
Mr. F. S. Etheridge, recogni
zed as one of the state’s most
prominent bankers, left Wednes
day morning for Washington to
attend a meeting of the foremost
business men of the whole nation
called to consider methods of
marketing the cotton crop. He
attended the conference as a rep
resentative of the Georgia Bank
ers Association of which body he
is first vice president.
Following the outbreak of the
European war there was a sharp
decline in the price of cotton and
there is a probability that the
foreign mills will close down. It
is to discuss this situation that
the conference was called. The
United States government has
promised to advance large sums
of money to move the cotton crop.
There has been a suggestion
that the government valorize
cotton, as Brazil does coffee. Just
what plan will be agreed on is

Mr. and Mrs. D. D. Winburn,
not known, but some means of
saving the cotton crop to the far
mers of the South will be decided
upon in the next few davs.
Leading financiers are advising
the farmers to hold their cotton.
And there seems to be a dispo
tion to follow this advice.
In the present crisis, which is
the most serious since the civil
war, farmers, bankers and finan
cers must co-operate and pull to
gether unitedly. It is a time for
mutual help. There is no reason
to be alarmed. Some plan will
be devised to save the coton crop.
Before leaving for Washington
Mr. Etheridge was optimistic
over the outlook and felt sure
some plan would be WCrkfcd Out

WAGNER’S
GARAGE.
Vote for Terrell
For Judge of the
Court of Appeals
To The People of Georgia:
I am a candidate in
the coming Demo
cratic Primary for
Judge of the Court
of Appeals to suc
ceed Judge Benj. H.
Hill, resigned.
I was born on a
farm in Cherokee
county, Ga., forty
seven years ago;
worked at all kinds
of labor usually
found in the country;
taught school in the
country; studied law
and was admitted to
the bar nearly twen
ty-six years ago; came to Atlanta more than
twenty-one years ago; and have practiced law,
which has been my sole business since.
I was a member of the General Council of
the City of Atlanta in 1903-4 and 1906-7; Vice-
Chairman of the Bond Commission of the
City from 1909 to August, 1913; and am now a
member of the Atlanta City Board of Education.
I have not asked the lawyers of my City
and the State for endorsements of my character
and ability. As to both, I refer to the Judges
before whom I have tried cases and the law
yers and others who know me and with whom
I have come in contact.
1 have no criticism to make of the other
gentlemen in this race personally, but I do be
lieve that the fact that they have each had al
most no experience in the practice of law, either
in the trial, or appellate courts, is a matter to
which it is proper that attention should be
called, while it is equally proper for me to say
that I have not had any other business, and to
express the hope that my experience as a prac
titioner in all the courts has qualified me for
the position whidi I seek.
