Si a Year, in Advance. advortiHcments mnat invariably be paid in advance, at tin- le«al rate, and aa tlie law diiertH; and moat be in band not later than Wedneitday mortiitiK of tlie Brut week of itmertion Mount Vernon, Ga.. Thursday Morning, .July 10, 1913. The public will feel relieved if the McNaughton case is ever set tled, no matter what disposition is made of it. First cotton blooms are still showing up in North Georgia. Down here we look for open Dolls any day. Remember that there are sev eral important reasons why you should turn out and vote for Ba con next Tuesday. After all, our Fourth was not so very sane. Forty deaths, twenty-eight of them by drown ing, is rat her a bad record for this year’s celebration. Every patriotic Georgian who has the right to vote ought to be at the polls on Tuesday next to casta vote for lion. A. 0. Ba con. A full vote would speak volumes for right.and L .nocratic supremacy. That old saw about “the great est good to the greatest number’’ needs sharpening in Georgia. If you will drop in on the Georgia legislature this week you will find that the greatest good is ex pected by the fellow who gets there first with his scheme. The multitude of measures crowding in for enactment by the present legislature would in dicate that we are a people in need of many rules and regula tions. One half the laws of the state now are almost a dead let ter because they are not enforced. The friends of Representatives McArthur of Wheeler and Brown ing of Bleckley regret very much, that the legislature declined to let them serve; but it is gratify ing to them to note that it is so specifically stated that their un seating had nothing of a personal n lure behind it. Willacooehee, like Adel wants entirely too much territory for her proposed new count v. After ’Coochec makes a few stabs at it she will learn that “beggars must not be choosers, ’’ and that the Legislature is not going to ruin any old counties to make new ones. Nashville Herald. You just can’t down old Geor gia by the failure of one crop. Reaches were short this year, but watermelons, cantaloupes and cucumbers art* bringing in thous ands of dollars daily; and profit able crops of hay and peas will follow these on the same land. Young man, plant your two sound feet on Georgia soil and get ready for a life of peace and plenty. We have always stood for co operation by the people of Mont gomery county as the only means of advancing the prosperity and social welfare of the whole people. Co-operation means strength and power to accom plish desired ends. Disii ’-ation means stagnation and absolution means weakness for ihe whole jieople. But the people must take their choice. As a people, we are learning more and more as the years go by. Twenty-five or thirty years ago the press was howling for immigration as the one thing needful to complete our great ness, as a na on. Today that same press is calling for restric tions that w ; !l stop the foreign tide that would soon change the plans and puriKises of our wrov ernment and make us what the crowded countries of the old world are today. i TVYYYYYfYYTYYYYYYYYYYYfYY• ► ◄ ► Gleanings From 2 t Wisdom’s Field. \ ► 4 • AAAA A AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Fitzgerald Press: —We still hear much talk of the State building the “state road to the sea.” A state that cannot pay her teachers their salaries for six months after the work is done is in no shafie to build railroads to the sea. Hartwell Sun: According to Edison, poverty will be unknown a hundred years hence. We will be starved to death and gone to our reward long before then. A mericus Times-Recorder: —No danger of the natives starving down in south Georgia as long as the watermelon and cantaloupe crops are good. Graymont Hustler;— Los An geles, Cal., has recently had its First rain in June in 35 years. All of which makes us glad that we live in Georgia, even if we have ,ome long dry spells down here. It would mean an absolute crop failure if we did not have any rain here during June. Savannah Press: —Kansas has a $40,000,000 wheat crop which shows they have learned out there that it is better to have a farm covered with wheat than with a mortgage. I )üblin Courier-Dispatch:—lf the legislature were to pass all the hills introduced so far at this session it would he in session un til the end of the year. Every body puts in a bill, in the legis ture. Walker County Messenger:—lt now seems that the Legislature is going to reform the tax system and see to it that the teachers of the State are paid promptly. If they will do these two things, t hough they do nothing more, the session will have been worth while. Monroe Advertiser: —Now is the season upon us when the small boy betaketh himself unto ye washhole, strippeth off his vestments (also his pantsments) and diveth into its limpid, liquid and refreshing depths. Darien Gazette: If there is goiqg to boa hot political cam paign in Georgia the coming year, why we will be compelled to accept a foreign job, should one come our way. However, we don’t want it if we can have political peace. Macon Telegraph:—The gray and blue have had a hot time at j Gettysburg, but not quite as hot a time as they had fifty years ago. IVKalb New Era:—Don’t joke about the Georgia Legislature, for when you come to think about what it costs the taxpayers of the State in dollars and cents, it’s a mighty serious matter. Nashville Herald: Why should a good county like Berrien be cut up and ruined to make a new j county? No reason for it. and, it will not be done. Savannah News: While the whole country was talking about the fiftieth anniversary of Pick ett's charge on July 3, did any- Ihmly stop to think that the same 'av was the fifteenth anniver-| sary of the battle of Santiago Bay ? How fine it would lie if all our glorious anniversaries could be celebrated on the same day! Douglas County Sentinel:—Tax reform is one of the important questions lx*fore the legislature and should receive its careful [ consideration. Just and equit able methods of assessment are vital questions and some plan should Ik* devised by which ev ery individual should lx* required to return his property at a fair valuation. THE MONTGOMERY* MONITOR—THURSDAY’, JULY 10, 1913. Modem Conveniences.
