REPUBLICAN ASSETS AT AUCTION SALE Kentucky Democratic Exec utive Committee Gets Up Unique Sale. One of the amusing things of the recent campaign is the fol lowing campaign is the following circular, said to have been issued by the Democratic Executive Committee of Kentucky. The circular is headed '‘Republican Junk for Sale March sth,” and has created great merriment in the South: “Our lease with Uncle Sam having practically expired, anct having decided to retire to pri- j vate life, we, the undersigned, I will offer for sale at our resi dence, the national capitol, Washington, D. C., all the fol lowing described property, to wit: “(a) One elephant, about forty years old, with false tusks and no backbone to speak of. “(b) One set of injunctions and anti-trust laws; have been used very little and are just as good as they ever were. “(c) One method of revising the tariff. This is absolutely original and patent has been ap plied for. “(d) One Republican plat form as good as new. Has only been used for campaign purposes. In this platform a large number of planks from the Democratic platform have been inserted, but they can be easily distinguished and will certainly go with the lot. “(e) One financial system, well supplied with clearing house certificates, but very little cash. “(f) One plan for raising campaign contributions. This is well worn and has a bad odor, but otherwise in good condition. “(g) A large quantity of G. O. P. bric-a-brac, consisting of old dinner pails, prosperity gags, Taft smiles, well-worn vetoes, election promises, panic threats, and other things of like charac ter too numerous to mention. “This sale will positively take place on the above day and date, regardless of weather and size of crowd, and everything will be closed out on that date. Crow will be served by the Old Boys’ Republican club! Everybody, re gardless of past political servi tude, invited. This stuff must be cleared away. Terms, just anything we can get and removal of property. “Uncle Joe Cannon, “Auctioneer. “William H. Taft, Clerk; J. Pierpont Morgan, C. D. Hilles, Boies Penrose, Chauncey Depew, Elihu Root, John D. Archbold, Committee.” Governor and Farmer. Gov. Brown is serving Georgia not only as a good chief execu tive but as a good farmer. In raising 158 bushels of corn on his farm in Cherokee county, one of the best in the State, he demon strates that our soil is capable of as well as sets a good example. It is true in a sense that there is more in the man than there is in the land, but this experiment and other similar ones in recent years proves conclusively that there is in our land all that can reasonably be desired. A proper revision of the tariff is not the only thing needful. Even more needful is that our farmers, in addition to their cash crop of cotton, shall raise corn, wheat, oats, rice, potatoes, etc., as well as food animals, in abun dance, thus enriching themselves while benefiting the general pub lic by the sale of their surplus in near markets. This is perhaps the greatest of all the factors in the solution of the problem of the high cost of living.—Macon Tele graph.

For forty years I lived in the western cattle country, and was a close student of the cattle in dustry. For fifteen years I ope -1 rated my own ranch and was brought into personal contact with the commercial side of rais ing and marketing flocks and herds. I am, therefore, prepared ; to indorse your stand with refer ence to Georgia’s chances in the direction of a revival of the beef industry. It is absolutely true, as you say, that the day of the western cat tle range measured by the hun dreds of square miles has passed, j Homesteads are rapidly taking ;up the western country and pre empting territory previously giv en over entirely to feeding meat to the markets of the United I States. That means, as you point out, that the handicap un der which Georgia and other sou thern states once operated is gone, also, and that the superior climate of this state, together with the idle land available, should enable it not only to be self-supporting from the stand point of beef, but also to pile up an export margin. Speaking of north Georgia, not to mention middle and south Georgia, thei'e are plenty of the small plots of which you speak that should produce a fine, mar keta! le grade of cattle. Georgia’s advantage is seen, too, in the fact that at the outside we have hardly more than a thirty-day feeding season here, if that much, while in the northwest they must count on feeding cat tle four and five months. In some portions of this state open pasturage if possible the year round. The farmer must be awakened to see the firofit in cattle raising. He must realize, also, that the small, scraggy, native stock will not do for beef purposes. He must import thoroughbred beef sires, and gradually raise the level of the state’s cattle to the quality demanded by the market. Among the first factors in the upbuilding of a cattle industry in this state, I count the liberal use of landiime by the farmers. You must understand that this lime is different from the ordinary fer tilizer. Much of the land of this state is unfit to produce the blue grass and alfalfa indespensible to a thriving cattle industry. Lime thoroughly worked in the soil acts as a reagent. It sets to work those forces that have been lying dormant in the soil, wakes it up so to speak, and makes possible the proper cultivation of blue grass and alfalfa. — I. C. Wade, in Idustrial Index. | ' ' Champ Clark Favors an Extra Session. Washington, Nov. 15.—Speak er Champ Clark came out in fa vor of an extra session of congress “to fulfill the pledge made by the Democratic party.” He said: “The country has a right to know what we intend to do. We made certain definite promises in order to win and we ought to carry them out religiously. I be lieve there should be an extra session of congresss at the ear liest possible date after March 4 to fulfill the pledges made by the Democratic party. ! * “I favor the holding of an ex traordinary session not only to revise the tariff, but to do such other things as are neces sary. However, after all, it de pends upon President-elect Wil son's view of the desirability of such action.” Speaker Clark arrived here j from West Virginia. He said he had found widespread sentiment in favor monetary reforms, tariff revision and amendment of the I Sherman anti-trust act through- 1 ;out the country. j.

Coffee Boys’ Corn Club Prizes Awarded Douglas, Ga., Nov. 14. — The. Coffee county fair prizes to-day were awarded to the contestants of the Boys Corn Clubs of the county, Hon. J. Walter Hendrick being the judge. The prizes, yields and profits made per acre were as follows: First prize went to Jesse Gillis, yield 88 4-7 bushels, net profit j $47.52; second, Jeff Corbett, 62! 6-7 bushels, $36; third, to Henry! Paulk, 54 1-2 bushels, $22.85; j fourth, Gussie Paulk, 44 bushels, $24.07. The fair is proving to be the greatest in the history of the as sociation for eight years. The agricultural exhibits this year are exceedingly fine and the poultry exhibit is equal to any in the ordinary state fairs. The ex hibit of the ladies’ department, consisting of hand work, cooking, fruits, art flowers, and then the school exhibits could hardly be surpassed anywhere. If the party that borrowed the pistol from the Drug Store will return same, no questions will be asked; and it will save a criminal prosecution.—ad. Administratrix Sals. Georgia—Montgomery County.
