Mount Vernon. 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.

Savannah News:—A San Fran
cisco beggar died leaving a will
in which he bequeathed a fortune
of $50,000. 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

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.”
