Dublin Times : Talk about
lively politics in the olden days—
they didu’t get out of the blue
back speller if the present brand
is considered.
Dublin Times: There is one
consolation—the fellow who voted
for the defeated candidate doesn’t
feel as bad as the defeated candi
date himself.
Savannah Press: Northern Pa
cific trains were held up yester
day by a landslide. Some po
litical trains in Georgia were held
up the same way.
Savannah Pross: Twenty-four
years ago North Carolina voted
against prohibition ; now it goes
the other way. Still, says a North
Carolina paper, the stills will not
be still.
Atlanta Constitution: A Chic
ago minister is going to establish
a “courting room” for love-sick
couples. The idea is not original.
It. was suggested by the private
divorce room in the Illinois courts.
Atlanta Constitution: There
is consolation in the reflection
that the climax in the baseball
season is vet to come and that
the peek-a-boo has not yet
reached its most ravishing de
velopment.
Savannah Nows: The most fa
mous horse alive is stabled in
Washington. He has thrown
Roosevelt; a good, fair throw, m
two feet of water. A horse able
to do that ought to command the
very highest market price.
' Dublin Times: It is rather un
likely, as has been suggested,that
Mr. Bryan will refuse to accept
the nomination for president if
he should be again selected ns the
Democratic standard bearer at
Denver. The nomination for the
presidency is not a small honor
and few men could be expected to
decline it.
Savannah News: Mr. Bryan
entertains so high a regard tor
John Mitchel, formerly president
of the United Mine Workers,that
he is said to lmve mentioned Mr.
Mitchell’s name in connection
with second place on the Demo
cratic national ticket. But it
seems Mr. Mitchell is not a can
didate for that position. Ho
would prefer to begin his political
career as Governor of Illinois. A
few days ago, it is said he held a
long conference with Roger C.
Sullivan of Chicago, the Demo
cratic leader in Illinois, and after
wards stated that, he would an
nounce at the Federation of Labor
meeting at Springfield on June 15
whether he would offer for the
governorship nomination of the
Democratic party. Mr. Sullivan
it will lie recalled, is the national
committeeman that Mr. Bryan
some short, while back tried to
kick out of the party. Would
Mr. Bryan join hands with Mr.
Sullivan in support of Mr. Mitch
ell?
Atlanta Constitution, in n lead
ing editorial in its issue of Fri
day morning last, says: “Fertile
first time in the history of Geor
gia, indeed, for tho first time in
the history of the notion, a Gov
ernor and his policies have been
rejected after one term by the
same party which placed him in
power.
“The sowing of the wind has
brought its harvest, and the whirl
wind of protest has swept th**
state.
“Unlocked -for, unexpected,
scarcely believed within the
bounds of possibility, that result
has couie teeming with ;» signifi
cance that expands as thought
dwells upon it. until thought it
self is lost still in incredibility.
“There is no man in Georgia,
be he supporter of Smith or Brown
who was prepared for the over
whelming force of the popular
protest which has swept the state
i “The inconceivable has taken
- material shape and form; tho in
• jcredible has become history.
[ 4 But it will yet be at least a
day before either side can come to
, | full realization of what has hap
j jpened. Until then, until the peo
ple have had time to collect their
reason and ponder calmly upon
tho weighty moaning of the peo
ple’s voices, discussion ol’ ihe sig
nificance of the result would be
j useless and out of place.
’j “The Constitution will, later,
j discuss in detailed and analytical
manner the meaning of the ver
-1 diet, of yesterday’s primary,
4- In the meantime, it can only
he said thnf the supreme will ot
the people has been registered at
the polls, and that will is n return
in Georgia to sanity, justice ami
conservatism.
THE PRICE OF HOGS.
j Home and Farm in the past
'twelvemonths has had much to
say übout hogs and hog raising.
Now read this item from the daily
papers the first of the month.
“Within a week hogs in the
Kansas City market have advanc
ed one dollar.”
This advance has been due to
jan increased demand and to too
! few hogs.
Every farmer should raise hogs.
jThey should ho well oared for. Get
the breed best suited to your sur
roundings, to your farm, and raise
hogs.
If you expect to make farming
pay you will have to raise some
thing more than one crop. The
one-crop idea has played out.
Raise cotton. Raise fruit. Raise
stock. Raise alfalfa, but whatev
er else yon raise, raise hogs.—
Home and Farm.
THE OTHER SIDE.
“Do birds reason?” As much
as some men.
“ A good cow is worth her
weight in butter.” Whose butter?
We have seen butter so bad no
oow would own it.
“Do not turn the cattle into the
alfalfa.” No; turn the alfalfa
ipto the cattle; that is what it is
1 for.
j
“Farming is the one occupation
that a man can engage in with
limited moans, and be assured of
a reasonable degree of suec e-s.”
j That was writ ten by some city
| farmer. Success on the farm de
pends on tho farmer and the farm
and is not to be taken for grant
ed in advance.
] “Spring rains bring muddy
roads.” Not if they have been
built right. Muddy roads, dusty
roads and roads full of ruts and
holes are a disgrace to any county,
and they cost more than the boll
worm and the potato bug.
j ‘‘The busy hen needs more at
tention now than ever.” She
idoes if you have a garden.
“The cow that is inclined to
hook others ought to have knobs
jon her horns. Dee horn her.
“Hogs seldom suffer from lack
of drink.” Hogs of every kind
suffer from too much drink of
the wrong kind.
“Chickens are better than cows.”
No; each in its place is best, but
|they are not competitors. Try
! both.
! “Europe takes 20 per cent of
: the cotton seed oil production of
jour country and 42 per cent of the
!cotton seed meal production.”
i Good; but it would be better if
we kept more cottton prodtet at
home. That is what Parrish Fur
man did —.Home and Farm.

MR. REPPARD’S DEATH.
The death of Mr. It. B Reppard
at his home m Savannah a few
! days ago came as a shock to many
jpeople throughout South Geor
i gift who knew and loved him.
1 The fact that his illness liud been
I of only a few hours’ duration amt
j that it. was not considered danger-
Jous before his death, made the
| news the more sad t o It is friends,
i Mr. Reppard was one of those
' whole-souled, genial men, en
; thusiastic in the cause of human
ity, earnest in their devotion to
God’s work, who accomplish
jso much for their generation and
! who leave, when taken away,
!such a feeling ot loss in the hearts
of a great number of those win
■ have been made the better and
tho stronger for their living. Mr.
Reppard was specially well
known as a Sunday School work
orand it was in this field that his
most lasting work was done. Him
devotion to the cause of Christ
has resulted in a greater work
for the people than perhaps was
! realized during his life. 11 is zeal
j knew no bounds of denomination
and was not confined to the white
people alone, but was spent for
j the negroes us well as for those
• of his own race.
! He will l»e greatly missed, as lie
! was greatly loved and unless his
j place is taken by other worker*.
,as devoted as he to the uplift ol
those about them, it will be long
; before the vacancy caused by lii
• death cease to be' foit by the
workers in this important purl of
the church’s work.
KILLED AT EASTMAN.
Eastman, Gn., May 29. —Mr. S
A. Jones was shot and instantly
j killed tonight at 7 :80 o’clock by
Gus Ragan at the latter’s stables.
There were no eye witnesses,
i but the trouble is said to have
j grown out of the driving of a
j horse by Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones
i leaves a wife and six children.
Mr. Ragan is a single man. Both
parties are members of Dodge
county’s best families and are
j largely connected on both sides.
Ragan is now in jail.
Raguu is in the livery stable
i business and claimed that Jones
' had driven bis horse too bard to
a picnic. Jones denied he had
I done it and it is claimed that Ra
gan cursed Jones. Jones struck
Ragan and was instantly killed.
' Both parties belonged to promi
nent families arid the unfortu
nate affair is generally regretted.
Ragan has heed arrested.
