Tin: people are beginning to
see through the strenuous “catn

Atlanta will have a Smith to
manage her hall team next year.
His name is ILlly.
Since it has been discovered
that Hoke Smith is a negro
philo, Iub supporters are in
quite a dilemma.
Oar subscribers are requested
to come in and pay up. We de¬

We think it advisable for the

every pupil presents a school

Col. Dosh Massettgaio denies
the allegation that he is to be

that he does not desire to whip
the al legator.
The news comes from Lincoln
that Banner Jim Bmith has
already captured that county.
That's mighty bad on Editor Jim
Boykin and Dr. \Y. B. Crawford.
Tho Atlanta Journal puts the
Washington Reporter in the
Hoke Smith column. We opined
that the Reporter would be for
your Uncle Jimsmith, at the
proper time.
Putnam and Hancock counties
are going to vote on tho question
of extra taxation for school pur

It is really amusing to watch
the wild antics of the Atlanta

‘hittk he’s engineering a

Mr. II. B. Nelms, traveling
ulesinan fur the Oconee Murble
Works, was heie last week. He
tells us that since his lost visit
through Elbert, Wilkes and Lin¬
coln, there has been a wonderful
chanage among the people on
the gubernatarial situation.
Sixty days ago, said Mr. Nelms,
those counties seemed solid for
Hoke ' Smith, ‘ ’ but has ‘ changed ° in
lavor „ of Jim Smith, . and , there » .
not much doubt that tho latter
will carry the three counties
mentioned.
The Crawfordville Advocate
Democrat heads an editorial on
the alleged negro appointments
of Hoke Smith, “Had .Just as
Well Get Out of the Race.” But
then Jim Williams always was
a fellow for humor.—Augusta
Herald.
But, when Iloke gets badly
defeated he can’t say no one was
kind enough to warn him of his
impending fate. And, that’s no
joke.
0. Howell Beazley, in the
Leesburg Journal, gets off the
following:
Malagas or muscadines ! We
smudge the question.—Editor

Editor Sid Lewis speaks of
other papers making an ass of
themselves. If there is a long

braying and kicking, with less
results, than tho Ishtnaolite’s
editor, we would like to have him

Editor Jim Williams says that
tho Atlanta Journal’s candidate
might as well come out of the
race. Some how or other we
have about come to the "same
cottclusiou. —1 {runswick Journal.
It is strange, to us that Hoke
himself can not discern the
“handwriting on the wall.”
Some folks, who couldn't say
enough moan things about
President Roosevelt for
appointing Crum to an office
at Charleston, are ready to de¬
fend Iloke Smith for doing even
worse than that. And it must be
remembered that Mr. Smith is a
Southern man, and should have
known better, !

LABOR FOR THE SOUTH.
The Railroads Will Try to Re¬
lieve the Scarcity
Several years ago the State of
Georgia appropriated $10,000 for
an immigration department.
A representative was sent
to Europe and other countries
to interest people to come this
country. He was a German and
he induoed his sister . in .i aw to
comaover . she settled in Atlanta,
married here aud had oue child.
These two additions to Georgia's
population were the total results
of tho State’s $10,000 exper¬
iment.
The railroads, however, have
been working systematically for
years to. bring in new settlers
and fresh capital. They have di¬
rected thier efforts chietly to the
work of interesting the thrifty
farmers and mechanics of the
west,-and they ha/e located thou¬
sands of them in the Carolinas,
Georgia, Alabama, and other
southern states. They are now
planning to get immigrant’s di¬
rect from Europe for southern
farms, mills, factories and fur¬
naces. Iu many sections, labor
is so scarce that the farmers can¬
not get enough help to properly
till their lands.
Hon. Ross. C. Smith, Com¬
missioner of Alabama’s Immi¬
gration and Industrial Associa ¬
tion, who was iu Atlanta last
week, stated that the prospects
wore very encouraging. There
is not i^tduug like the shortage
ol" lab< jr the west that there is
in the Sauth.” said. ’’This is
Largely 'western $o%ds
have bdiy Jiking hundreds cf
thousan^P r immigrants direct
to the West in years past. Our
Southern roads realize that the
situation is growing desperate
here iu tho South and they in¬
tend to make a strong effort to
draw a good class of foreigners
into this territory.” One of the
best effects that an influx of
good white labor to the South
will accomplish, will be to stimu¬
late the negro and make him
work mo-t e regularly, As long as
the negro knows that there are
two jobs for every man
that wants to work, the
more he is inclined to loaf
and idle away his time. Then
again the negro’s proper place
is in the cotton and corn field,
and away from the town and
cities. He is decidedly more
peaceful and better citizen on the
farms than he is elsewhare.
While many of the foreigners
are good hands in the fields, they
cannot handle the mule and are
not as satisfactory for farm
work as the negro.
”1 believe that by next spring
there will be a big stream of
white foreign labor coming into
the south.”

Dear Sir: The way to buy paint is to
go by the name. There is a name never
seen on sham paint or weak paint or
short-measure paint: Bevoe.
There are hundred different names iu
paint. Some are sham; some weak ; some
short-measure and some all three.
If there is another such paint as Devio
lead-ttnd-ziue, we dou’t know it. There
are a few fairly good gallon paints r few ; only
one Devoc. A Pcvoe is worth a
gallon-and-i-ha-f ofthoae few.
