felt like he was in the hands of a

Atlanta Constitution: The Chic-!

no excitement on the part of the;
brewers over the report that Mars:

home are what they dearly love to

Savannah Press: Some finan- j
ciers contend that in the wildest j
days of the populist ic craze —when ;
it was proposed that the govern- 1
ment lend money to the farmers,;
or issue loans against crops—in
these days nothing more wild ever
was proposed than the financial
act which Senator Aldrich, Speak

woded out for the approval of J
the Republican majority of the
sixtieth congress and christened
the Aldrich Vreeland bill.

Dublin Tunes ; The most im
portant duty before the people of
Georgia the coining fall is the rat
ification of the disfranchisement
bill passed by the legislature last,
year.
There is no longer any issue as
to whether the amendment should
be adopted. It. was one of the
strongest, planks in Gov. Smith s
platform two years ago. He was
overwhelmingly elected, the peo
ple virtually endorsing the dis-;
franchisemeiit measure. It was
not an issue in the last campaign,
as hard as the Atlanta Journal
and others tried to make it one,;
and the victory of Mr. Brown did j
not mean,that the people opposed
the disfranchisement, measure.
Ninety per cent, of the Brown
supporters and 9*> per cent, of Mr.
Smith’s supporters probably favor

for all of us to keep the matter in
mind and urge every friend to go
to the polls in October and vote
for the amendment.
Atlanta Georgian : No more;
wonderful and spontaneous trib
ute was ever paid any man than
that accorded Theodore Roosevelt,
president of the United States,
Tuesday m the convention of his
party in Chicago.
Whether or not that treinend
1
ous undercurrent of feeling there
for compelling Ins nomination
again becomes strong enough on
the surface to mine the conven
tion away from fixed program—
and contrary, apparently, to the
president’s deem—it must have
j thrilled him to know how his
name turned a thousand men to n
(cheering mass ot humanity in un
restrained tribute.
It was the tribute to a broad,
; big American—to a utan, whatever
the errors of his head, the people
! believe is sound in heart and pur
i pose. It is because the musses be
ilieve that integrity, manhood and
j wide love of country form the
basis of his character,
i However wo differ here with
him in the political faith that
1 holds him,the South loves a square
! man. And the South, like the
I East., the West, and, in the main,
i the North, believes Theodore
Roosevelt, to be a square man.
OR. C. H, KITTRELL
HIGHLY HONORED
The following from the Dublin
Times will be read with interest
by the many friends in this city
and county of Dr. Chns. 11. Kit -
trell:
Dr. Chas. H. Kittrell of Dublin
was honored in Atlanta last. .Mon
day being elected president of
the Georgia State Optical Associa
tion.
j The honor is one of distinction,
land Dr. Kittrell’s friends are
'congratulating him upon it.
Dr. Kittrell had been vice-pres
ident of the association for two
! years, and it. svas thought before
the meeting in Atlanta that the
'members would place him at the
Head. He is one of the most j
' skilled optometrists in the south:
! and his knowledge of his proses- !
I ‘ . .
I sion and his great interest m :
everything pertaining to the sne
i cess of his organization won him
recognition from his fellow-mem
. hers.
At the Atlanta meeting Dr.
; Kittrell read a paper ou “The ■
: Future of Optometry” which was
i highly complimented by those j
j who heard it. The other officers
I elected by the state association!
were: H. J. Godwin of Augusta!
vice-president, C. E. Folsom of!
Atlanta secretary and M. E. j
'Grimes of Statesboro treasurer, j
! A resolution was adopted at the .
Atlanta meeting inviting the Na
tional Association of Optict-ions
to hold their 1909 meeting in this
i state. This would bring opti
cians by the thousands from ev
ery section of the country.

RAILROAD STRIKERS
ARE BACK As WORK
An agreement has been reached !
between the trainmen of the N.,
C. & St. L. railway, who have
i been on a strike, and the officials
(of the rood, whereby a settlement
iof the strike iR effected and the
deadlock between the men and the
rood declared at an end. No ques
tion of wages was involved in the
strike, the disagreement centered i
; around the road’s refusal lo recog
nize the union. The point was
w hether members of the union j
could retain membership and con
, tinae to work with the road. The
! action of the conference was to
decide the point in the affirma
tive. About 2GO men were in
i volved in t he strike have been out

f’THE “OOD-WITH-US”
! CURE FOR HUMAN ILLS
|> Rev. Dr. Robert MacDonald
i tells in the July Woman's Home
,! Companion how the cliurdh is once
I! more becoming active in the cure
of human ills. Through the“Em
, tnnnuel Movement.” started at
, Emmanuel Episcopal Church in
, Boston, and taken up by Doctor
MacDonald in his own church in
Brooklyn,the church is again say
, ing, “Arise, take up thv bed and
,I walk.”
, “The complaint is going up
, from everywhere,” says Dr. .Mac-
Donald, “t-iiat the church is Ins
i ing its hold on practical men and
women. The reason is not that
. the church is not faithful to its
, duty, but that the world has in
creased its facilities to satisfy
man. But here is a new wav of
I reaching the man of the world
, His modern wav of living, with
all its hurry ami worry, has got
! ten onto his nerves. He sleeps
poorly, is depressed and nieian
, choly, has nervous breakdowns.
, is dyspeptic and sluggish and
miserable. The same man wlm
, will not listen to a purely spirit
ual appeal wants help, and wants
it badly. The church that can
promise him health with which to
do his work,wins him. 11 is hodiU
I ! pain is very real to him, tor it is
so much nearer than a cramped
and dormant spirit of which he is
not. conscious.
“Where does the Emmanuel
Movement differ from Christian
I Science? There can bo said to be
only one point of similarity, li
is that both are desirous of get
ting rid of disease. But they no
j sooner join issue than they disa
• gree. Tlie point of separation is
j in what constitutes curable and
incurable malady. The Emman
uel Movement treats only Tund
! idnal disorders of tire nervous
system.’ Christian Science does
not distinguish between function
al and organic diseases. Then.
! again, the Emmanuel Movement
: works hand in hand with pliysi
j cians, taking only such cases as
I they recommend, cases that are
| beyond the reach of drugs and the
ordinary medical prescription.”
PRAYER AND FAITH
ALWAYS HELP HER.
The Savannah Press of recent
date says: Miss Mattie Perry
j who will lecture at the Trinity
I Methodist church at 4 o’clock
| this afternoon and at 11 o’clock
| tomorrow morning and again at
J 4 in the afternoon, is a very re-,
! markable woman. She is support
j ing an orphanage at Marion,N
IC., containing one hundred or
phans, and another at Tampa,
Fla., through faith alone.
She says tant she obtains tic
: money for the support of the
! home solely through prayer. Miss
; Perry says she prays for the mon
ey and it is sent to her through
] the mails or in other ways. Sl»< :
I says she never makes a personal
! appeal or takes up a collection
Miss Perry came to Savannah
j from Guyton, where she address
ed the Women’s District Mission
ary Conference.
THE PROHIBITIONISTS
HAVE BUT FEW FEARS
According to figures recently
(compiled by J. B. Richards, asso
ciate superintendent, of the Geor
gia Anti-Saloon League, tic i •
ispoins to be no chance whatever
for the antis to bring about, any
change whatever in the present
prohibition law.
Even those favoring local op
; tiou and high license dr. not stand
a ghost of a chance to influence I
the present legislators to monkey
with the law as it, now stands.
According to Mr' ,, Richards' es
timate there are about two to one
'of the members who arc standing
pat on the present law.
At the time Mr. Richards gave
<>ut his statement the reports on
all the nominees were not in, but
he puts it dow n like this : Sena- j
tors: prohibitionists, gfi: local
optionists, 18 ; Representatives •:
