What threatened to be an invasion
on the sacred rights of the American
l*eople was averted last week, when
the Senate removed Arizona and New
Mexico from the Statehood Bill. It
looked very much for a time as though
these people were going to be forced
into a shotgun wedding, as every ef
fort of them in as one State, whether
they liked if or not, and this would
have been brought about had it not
been for the Hon. Mark Smith, Del
egate from Arizona. He can congrnf-
ulate himself on having won out on
one of the hardest fights, against the
greatest odds, that has taken place j
here in many years. Bully for Mark.
Arizona should he proud of him.

A MAMMOTH MAY PICNIC.
Proposed Gathering of Sunday
Schools at Thomaaville.
Several Sunday school workers are
Interested In having a mammoth Sun
day School Union picnic of all the
scboola In South Georgia at Thomas-
villc on the fourth of May. The mat
ter was presented at the local Sunday
schools for dlscuslon Sunday morning.
The promoter! think that auch an
eve nt would be one of unuaual In
terest. The plans made, If carried
out will bring here the Sunday schools
of Valdosta, Balnbrldge, Camilla, Mon-
ticello, Tlfton and all Intermediate
points. Among the places in this
territory are Boston, Dixie, Pldcock,
Quitman, Pine Park, Cairo, Wblgbam,
Metcalfe, Psvo, Ochlockonee, Meigs,
Pelham, Merrillville, Coolldge. Ber
wick and Moultrie. There are at
least two Sunday schools In each of
these places, and more In many. There
would probably bo forty schools st
least representing Including these
from the country churches, and more
than three thousand''people In town
on that day. The railroads have of
fered to make special low rates If
snrh an occasion is arranged.
The town could easily care for this
many people. The weather is line
for picnics In May and Paradise
Park Is an Ideal place for a gathering
•f this kind. There Is no reason why
the occasion cannot be arranged and
be made even a greater success than
the famous county picnic at which
Thomasville was the host a year ago
