SELECTING OUR MAN.
In another column, the Gazette
publishes a call for a mass meeting,
to be held in Tifton April 16th, to
select ten delegates to a Senato
rial District Convention, to be held
in Valdosta April 20th, to decide how
a candidate from the district shall
be selected.
The Gazette believes that the Dem
ocrats of Tift county will insist, as
with one voice, that the naming of a
candidate be left with this county.
This, in connection with the rota
tion system, has been the time hon
ored custom for years, and there ap-
•pears now no good reason to depart
from it.
Why this effort to make the
change now? Do the other three
counties of the district fear that Tift
will put forward a man who will be
incompetent and not acceptable to
them? If not, then why the move,
just at this time, to change the man
ner of selecting the nominee?
r For years, the balance of the dis
trict, of which a large portion of
Tift then as now, was a part, has al
ways accepted, without question,
the man put forward by the county
whose time it was, under the rota
tion system, to furnish 'the senator.
Was it Lowndes county’s time, then
Berrien and Echols accepted its
choice without question. Was it
Echols’ or Berrien’s turn, the other
Counties acquiesced without cavil.
At the meeting in Valdosta on the
1st, the Executive Committee deci
ded, by a vote of 3 to 1, that it was
Tift county's time, under the rota;
tion Bystem, to furnish the candidate*
And if it is this county’s time to
furnish the man, the voters of the
county will insist that-they are enti
tled to name him, guaranteeing that
he will be a man in every way com
petent and one who will be in every
respect satisfactory to the other
counties of the district. '
It is rumored that Echols is dis
satisfied with the action of the Ex
ecutive Committee, and that the call
of the Convention of the counties is
with the hope of re-opening the mat
ter and having the action of the
Committee reconsidered.
It would be well for our people at
next Wednesday’s mass meeting, to
bear this contingency in mind.
If the Committee had decided
against Tift, there would have been
no voice of protest from this county.
But if our people are entitled to fur
nish the man, they will certainly in
sist that they should be allowed to
name him.
What sort of a choice of Tift coun
ty would a candidate be selected by
the other three counties of the dis
trict?
Ithas been suggested since’’the Old
< Fiddler’s Convention" in Valdosta,
•that a similar one be held in Tifton
j) some time during the summer, prob
ably In July. There is plenty of
good material in the section sur-
'' rounding Tifton and our people

i ter purpose than in preserving in
the minds of the coming generation

days. The “fiddlers" are rapidly
passing aWay—the old time fiddlers

days, and it may be the last oppor

this section will have of hearing one
of them, and also the last that some

K Speaking of the port’ rate ques-
|. tion, former Commissioner Pope
Brown, of Pulaski county, throws a
j, bomb shell into the political camp by
j! a statement given to the press Tues
day, in which he says that there is a
strong probability that Atlanta has
been conceded freight rates which
practically amount to the’‘port rates"
by the railroads in order to get the
city to hold up in its fight Rid pre
vent the rates being made general.
If this is true, Atlanta is profiting at
the expense of the state of Georgia,
as usual, and will account for the
fight on the “port rate” matter be
ing dropped so suddenly and unex
pectedly by the state administration.
Hon. Thus. E. Watson, of Georgia,
has been nominated by the Populist
party as its candidate for president
at the national election in Npvem
ber. Hon. Samuel Williams, of In

nified whether or not he will accept
, the nomination, but it is a fore-gone
conclusion that hr whl, as it would
'undoubtedly give him more national
prominence and it would aid him in

To til* Fanur’i Union.
Tifton, Ga., April 9th 1908
Gentlenien:
I have been advised that there is a
report current that I said that one
of your secrets, and the mam one,
was not to pay your debts. Now
this report is absolutely false. I
have never made any such remark,
or do I believe there is or ever has
been such an agreement. I will
face the man that started this false- 1
hood.
1 have remarked that the Fanners
Union has hurt the country by hold
ing their cotton and not paying their
debts, which 1 think any thinking
man will bear me,out in. This does
not mean the order, but the mem
bers that have been guilty of it,
which was, I think, a big mistake
and I believe the most of them see
it now, as the holding of it lias not
advanced the price as they thought
it would do.
Now, if there is one class of people
that 1 think more of than an other,
it is the farmers. 1 was rqisetl a
farmer; then our sustenance of life
must come from the farmer. If
there is anything that can be done
for the farmer’s good,I am for that;
the life of the country depends on
the farmer. If you will place the
farmers of the country in good cir
cumstances, you will see the country
prosper. If, you will cramp the
farmers of the country, you will see
the whole country cramped, There
is no way out of it. 1 am not a
union man for several reasons, one
of them is, 1 could not be if I wanted
to, They would not have me as I am
not a farmer.
Yours Very Truly, t

leg was swollen andlbecame so much
shorter that I had to have five lifts
put on my left shoe
“Every winter for a number of
years I was laid up in this way and
suffered excruciating pain." I tried
everything and all the consolation I
got from people was that sciatica
could not be cured.
“After trying everything else, as
a last resort I got a dollar bottle of
Sloan’s Liniment and was amazed
when 1 found that it gave me relief.
I used a second bottle and the swel
ling went out of my leg and it was
only necessary for me to use a part
of the third bottle.
“Sloan’s Liniment has certainly
done wonders for ’me, and if you
wish to refer to me you can do so.

“Some years ago, while stopping

Mrs. Julius Scott, of 10826 Columbia

request there had been an automo
bile shed built in the city of- Tifton
made of wood and since this was al
lowed, requesting that he be allowed
to bring his shop into the fire limits.
Council after considering the matter
as they had not granted a permit for
the automobile shed to be placed in
the city fire limits, it was moved and
carried (hat the request of Mr. Mid
dleton be refused and that the auto
mobile shed, which is placed on the
vacant lot near the Myon Hotel, be
removed. The Chief of Police was

An ordinance creating a Water

That the committee consist of four

word “construction” be inserted

"maintenance and operation.” Also,
that the repealing clause be stricken

In a hot game of baseball yester
day afternoon .the Lumbermen de
feated the Bankers by a score of 12
to 7. The game was chiefly enjoyed
by the crowd of onlookers for its
amusing features as this is the first
time that some of the boys have had
any practice. Scarboro, pitchingfor
the Bankers, was a little wild,giving
five bases on bails and striking out
six, while Courtney, of the Lumber
men, walked one and struck out six.
In the hits scarboro had the advan
tage, giving up only 6 while Court
ney gave up 11.

A fire alarm Tuesday night about
8:16 caused nearly the entire town
*o turn out but the blaze was quick
ly extinguished by the fire laddies.
It was located in an old two-story
building on the alley southwest of
Churchwell Brothers. The building
belonged to the estate of Mrs. Kate
Drew and was worthless, and had
long been an eyesore.
In the building was stored a lot of
old soda-water crates, belonging to
the Tifton Bottling Works which
were of little value.
The fire, owing to the dry weather
was in a dangerous place, but prompt
work on the part ot the firemen pre
vented any possibility of its spread.
