Thousands of immigrants, skilled in farm work, land annually at New York, and are located in the shops wheso they aro unfitted. With proper management, the States could secure much of this labor, accustomed to ag ricultural pursuits, for the larms. But no intelligent system has been devised by the States for obtaining these farm im migrants. Here is food for thought tor the Georgia Legisla ture. The laws of the United States prevent private agents from going to Europe to supply the needed labor, but there is no law against seeking the labor that comes. Georgia ehould have an agent located in New York to study the immigration problem and search out the labor from the farms of Europe and induce it to come to this state. —Macon Telegraph. A NOTABLE COURT DECISION. One of the most notable decisions in the annals of American jurisprudence has just been handed down by the supreme court of Massachusetts. It is a decision that is calculated to make employers more careful of the habits of their employees. A man named McCarthy, a man who drank regularly and heavily and whose habits were known to his employers, killed one of his fellow workmen, a man named McNicol. Mrs. McNicol brought suit against the firm for damages and the jury awarded her a substantial verdict. Upon re viewing the case, which was appealed, of course, the supreme court sustained the verdict and held that it was eminently just in every respect. If this judgment is recognized and concurred in by other supreme courts, no firm can afford to employ a drunkard. It will he liable for acts committed \, 3 teat drunkard during the hours of his employment, even for an act of the nature of homicide, + v AV) court iias e\v>r rendered a more severe indictment of the drinking man th;n this Massachusetts tribunal. It is a decision tliat should receive the careful consider ation of drinkers and employers alike.—Macon News, Editorial Etchings.' The South’s economic independ ence will not be due to cotton. It will be due to corn, cattle, oats, rye aud hay. When these tiling are raised at home iti sufficient abundance the South can then raise cotton and laugh at the world, —Monroe Advertiser. F.lla Wheeler Wilcox says men do dot respect flirts. She might add that flirts do not respect men— else they wouldn’t flirt.—Albauy Herald. The more a man tries to accom plish, and greater the burden lie carries, the greater hisenemies and knockess. A man without an en emy or a knocker is a poor cuss without an idea or a single aspira tion.— Metter Advertiser.

MEN WE WANT IN CONGRESS Representatives Who Oppose Every Measure Retarding Liquor Traf fic Should Be Favored. “There are many congressmen wlio are opposed to our Interests and vote against, every measure that looks to ward the development and betterment of our business, and vote for every measure introduced by the opposition. I Intend that the 250,414 saloonkeep ers throughout the United States shall know the records of these congress men.”—M. F. Farley, President Na tional Liquor Dealers’ Association. We must see to It that the antl llquor men and women in the 48 states also know the record of these representatives. They are the men we want to send back to congress. Temperance Cause Marches On. Rev. Francis B. Clarke, founder of the Christian Endeavor society, re cently made an extensive trip abroad with 650 fellow Americans. Among them were representatives of near ly every state, nearly ev<ery trade, business and profession, and they were the people who surprised the steward. Two hundred and eighty of the passengers drank only cold wateL It was a rare thing to see a bottle of wine or beer on tha table, and whisky did not make its appearance, says Mr. Clark.
