Ga., Thursday Morning, OCT. 26, 1911. The prospects for a better j sugar cane crop are far brighter this fall. Anything to beat the sugar trust. Plenty of peavine hay anti fat cattle would give the boll weevil the black eye as soon as he crawls into this territory. We expect to see good results from the many agricultural fairs held this year by Georgia’s most progressive counties. The ob ject lesson is the thing. President Taft is about to wind up his great itinerary through tho West. If he wants to see the garden spot of his dominions let him come down this way. The appointment, of Hon. E. I'. S. Denmark of Valdosta to fill the vacancy caused by the resig nation of Judge Holden from the Supreme court liench, would give entire satisfaction in this part of the state. A Savannah policeman has dis covered a man rooting in the ground and declaring he was a hog. By many thousands, this is not the first poor fellow that mean whiskey has transformed into a brute. We suggest to the ladies of Montgomery county the feasibil ity of forming a poultry associa tion. Our columns are always open for the discussion of this and all topics that tend to the general uplift. There is a tinge of sadness in the fact that the wrecked aero plane from which poor Ely fell to his death at Macon last week is being attached and becomes the prey of litigants. How soon does the glory of this world pass away. While the hoys of Montgomery are figuring on a corn club, let the girls plan for a canning club. Six counties in the state have these clubs. Remember, girls, the l>oys are to have nothing to do with your work, not even to peeling the fruit. We do not regret at all that state polities are so quiet. If our people could be left free from political strife long enough to turn their attention to civic im provements, and to reaching out towards the great i>ossihilities of agricultural achievement, what a paradise we would have. There is no rubbing it out —the people of this country have made more cotton than they can gath er. There are great fields all about where then* hasn’t lanm a look picked. Would it not lie acting wisely to plant crops that can be harvested with very little expense? How about a good crop of oats followed by peavine hay? No expense ahout either hut to plow in and gather. And they bring cash. SCHOOL NOTICE, U. B. I.

Every time a beggar dies leaving riches, it makes life harder for the beggars he leaves behind. Class patriotism should teach them to dispose of their wealth before they die. Valdosta Times: They say that the aviator at the State Fair did not do his very best until somebody accused him of being one of the “Valdosta aviators.” Then he went in the air deter mined to do or die—and he did. Darien Gazette:—We wish the political medicine we are now taking would answer for next year, too. Just think of jumping out of one campaign right into another. It is pretty tough, sure. Atlanta Georgian: A Massa chusetts couple attempted to get married on a hunter’s license. Is this a sign that in the matri monial game one of them will lead the other a merry chase? Savannah Press:—lf Japan wants to know just how we feel about it let her send a couple of men to count those hundred and two American warships when they pass in review in New York harbor next month. Dublin Courier: —The North Georgia man who was swindled out of his money by a woman he met through a matrimonial ad vertisement probably believes firmly that it don’t pay to adver tise. Wrightsville Chronicle: Not much difference between Dr. Wiley and lots of other people: he wants to know what is been and they want to know where is beer. Mcßae Enterprise:- Editor Stanley’s picture now “adorning” the pages of all the Georgia newspa]>ors. Even if we did not know this man, we would judge by looks and vote for him anyway. Nashville Herald: I/Ot’s see: Judge Dick wants us to sip our suds on the premises, in a separ ate building from where we get our licker, in original packages, lie doesn’t want a Russell man to set ’em up to a Brown man. and he wants all the prohibition ists to vote for him, because he is in favor of regulating the sale of the ardent. Nothing like can didates having plenty of views on the prohibition question. County Herald:- The students of a northern female college play marbles every morn ing with their bare “tootsies” to develop their feet. This might seem more appropriate among Chinese women. THE NAKED TRUTH. The greatest of all reforms needl'd in Georgia is one of ad justing the system of giving in taxes. The present system of giving in taxes in this State has been characterized as “passing the hat.” Demagogic politicians and would-be reformers can paw up the earth about little matters, but they haven’t the nerve to tackle the great question of equal and just taxation. The Legislature meets and appropri ates more money than the State has. But the same Legislature seems afraid to pass reform laws improving the present system of “passing the hat" in giving in property for taxation. Greens boro Herald. THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR—THURSDAY, OCT. 26, 1911. JUDGE MADDOX SCORES CANDIDATE RUSSELL. Rome, Ga., Oct. 21, Judge John W. Maddox, in his charge to the grand jury at the opening term of the superior court today, made a scathing at tack upon Judge Richard B. Rus sell, and also alluded to the par dons granted by Gov. Smith. Concerning Judge Russell he said: “We see a judge of the highest court in the land running for governor with the main plank in his platform that the law cannot be enforced. I do not censure him for holding on to his job while running for governor, but in the name of the judiciary of the state I resent as an insult to honest judges and honest jurors his statement that the law cannot he enforced. I never was what they call a prohibitionist, either.” In speaking of two pardons re cently issued by Governor Smith for men convicted last year in his court, Judge Maddox said: “If the right lawyer with in fluence enough presents the pe tition the man is pardoned. We find too free use of the pardon power here in Georgia, as in Ten nessee. To use the pardoning power as a personal asset for po litical advancement is damnable, and the offender ought to be kicked out of office.” Administrators’ Sale. Georgia Montgomery County.
