The work that haa been done by Sena tor Hoke Smith during the past five yean to keep the markets open for the sale ol cotton has been of Immense service to the southern farmers. He began his fight In the Tall of 1114, and for five years, in season and out of season, he was the leader of the struggle to pre- serve and open markets for the sale of cotton. This is too long a story. »nd involves too many distinct contests, In the Senate and out of the Senate, to be given in detail in this article. His first bill was in the fail of 1914, and provided for the exchange of two hundred and» fifty millions of bonds for five million bales of cotton. The bill provided that the cotton should be kept off the market for two years. In this fight he was not successful. i As the result of a resolution Intro duced by Senator Hoke Smith In the 8en-! ate on October 22nd, 1914. the English government, on October ttth, conceded the right .of American otUsens to ship their cotton unmolested -to ail points In northern Europe, Including Germany, and, as a result of this conoesslon, over three millions of bales were shipped In De cember, January and February of the ASSAULT TO MURDER association pledged its continued support bravery iu action. of the tick eradication movement in in- ^ servant \y e bb ia a very modest as fested oouuties. well u« a handsome, up-stuudiug, six- The association pawed a reeolution £oot He talkg interestingly, for pledging its aid in the illiteracy cam- be has seen more than comes into the paign now on in Georgia.

It was the theory of the State that Troup was only one of three who conspired to take Queen’s life, but there was no direct evidence to support this theory and only Troup was tried. The trial consumed a day and a half, every inch of ground being hotly contested by both sides. He was convicted and the penalty fixed at not leas than two nor more than • five years in the penitentiary. The next case of importance was that of Willie Cain charged with killing Bus ter Wilcox, both colored. The defense claimed that the killing was accidental and proved that both parties were on friendly terms at the time of the kill ing. but the jury decided that Cain was unnecessarily careless with the weapon, and found him guilty of involuntary man slaughter, fixing thc penalty at 12 mouths in the chaingung, the limit for this of- During the Influenza epidemic which to-iiaud when th ( > Americans aud Germans covered the country in (X^Jber, 1018, the ‘came t*> grips in the forest- along the sales of 101 Tonic increased more than Paris-Soissons road.
