Newspaper Page TextPAGE TWO The Dawson MNews e PUBLISHED WEEKLY AT $l.OO PER YEAR BY E. L. RAINEY. e e e t DAWSON, GA., Nov. 247 n, 1909 T e it e ~ILLY NEWSPAPER INNOVATION. Recently the newspapers of saffron tiue have started in to exploit church going by presenting the pictures and pames of fashionable women and men in the act of entering and leav ing church, with a description of the ;pilettes worn by the women. ‘ If there is any place where rank.j s¢al or supposed, should not flaunt yiself it is at the church door. There wquality should prevail, and particu- | jarly in a country where democracyj i« or should be the cornerstone of e actions. l Perhaps the men and women sol depicted may like this publicity; we | i2re more inclined to think, however.‘ # is the fault of the newspaper man sger, who, in his greed, stops at sothing save going to jail to increase #is circulation. It were better to remain away! wom services than to come and dis slay riches at the place where e\'ery-l sne should be plain and equal. ‘ WOMAN SUFFRAGE. A concentrated effort to force suffrage upon women is well under way. New York, San Francisco, New Orleans, Washington and the sther great cities on the edge of the gation know that the crusade is in *ull tilt, and so do the notable cities mland. To the great majority of voters the #laint falls on deaf ears. To grant it is to take woman out of her sphere, and compel her to exercise & privilege she does not care for and which in no wise could benefit the gublic. Why, then, thrust upon her something she does not want, and which she would not exercise to any xtent? A little reflection will convince “he thinking people that the woman 28 a voter can be of no assistance m ridding society of the barnacles which weigh it down. Colorado is the most important state unreservedly committed to wo man suffrage. It has had the ballot in the woman's hand for years. Therefore, the experimental stage #as passed. Ask any man you meet who hails from there if conferring the vote upon woman has improved politics or the public service or di minished the haunts of vice, and he will tell you that it has not. If the men cannot succeed in measurably #iminishing these drawbacks to re spectable living the women certainly cannot. And if female suffrage can be of no assistance in these crusades what is the use of granting it? There is enough to distract wo mankind now without adding to her tribulations the suffrage, and the sooner those clamoring for its exer cise realize this the better it will be for themselves and the country. THE SHIPP CASE. [ It seems to be the general opinion | of the press that the sentences— | ranging from three to six months ini jail-——the federal Supreme Court im-‘ posed on Sheriff Shipp, Jailer Gibson | and the four members of the mobi that lynched the negro at Chatta-i nooga for an assault on a white wo-| man are severe, and there is a goodi deal of sympathy for Sheriff Shipp, | who is an aged canfederate vateran. Tha sogrn eha wsg typebed hadt been convicted and condemmned tuz death, and his lawyers appealed to! the Supreme Court to review the m‘o-i ceedings of the Tennessee court. The | Supreme Court decided to grant thei appeal, and the fact was telegraphedi to Chattanooga. When it became | known that the Supreme Court hadl decided to interfere in the case a! mob formed, broke into the jail, took ! the negro out and lynched him, l The sheriff, jailer and four mem- | bers of the mob were adjudgedi guilty of contempt of that high tri-’l bunal, and hence the sentences that were imposed. It was held that the sheriff and jailer didn't do their whole duty. While he is serving his sentence in the jail at Washington the peo-! ple of Chattanooga are runhing Sher iff Shipp for that office again, and the probabilities are that he will be elected. Next Menday the voters of Ala bama will go to the polls on the question of writing absolute and state-wide prohibition into the con stitution. The campaign ‘is getting hotter every minute. Meanwhile it is very certain that there has been much intemperance in the campaign, and that everybody will heartily thank God when the fight is over, no * matter how it results. Don’t Dawson Grow! ® i OUR BANKS. § Every community must feel lively |interest in the condition and prestige 'of its banks. It is a secondary con isideration whether the banks will ,lend you money every time vou want jit, or as much. A community must ‘have strong and well managed banks {to do business and prosper, and when xithe banks are prosperous the com ;munity is pretty apt to be prosper ing, too. The three banks of Daw ,son and the one each in Sasser, Bron wood and Parrott make statements this week showing their respective conditions on November 16th. They are all in splendid shape, and they are banks for these people to be proud of. ’ SUNHINE AND OPTIMISM. | If President Taft should give no }‘legacy to the American people other }than his rich and rare humanity, his !unfailing humor and kindness, re ‘marks the Washington Post, he will not have served in vain. Judicial poise, administrative ability, politi cal diplomacy, and a grasp of af fairs—all of which he has shown in marked degree—are the essentials to success in a public career. But no matter in what degree a man may“ have these praiseworthy attributes he | will find it hard to legislate morals, optimism or a sense of brotherly‘ love into the people of a great na tion. In the few months that he hasl been in office President Taft may be said to have restored the nation’si sense of humor. In the under cur-| rent of all his speeches, even thoseg dealing with the matters most vitali to his administrative programme,! there has been a constant flow of hu manity and brotherhood. The peoplel of all sections received Mr. Taft as a friend, a higher tribute than being welcomed as president. Never once,l through all the moil and toil of his' 13,000 miles of travel, did he lose that keen sense of humor. Incon venience he regarded simply as a good joke upon himself. He preached the philosophy of sunshine and health and optimism. I Dawson grows every day. } THE RIGHT THING. The State Baptist Convention, at its session in Dublin last week, re solved to call on congress through its individual members to pass a law prohibiting the granting of govern ‘ment license to sell whiskey in “‘dry”’ states. We agree with the Griffin News ithat this is an eminently ~proper ‘move, with everything in its favor iand nothing to be said against it. 'Granted that the state has a right to prohibit its citizens from doing a certain thing, the federal govern ment has no right to extend its sanc tion in any way to commit a lawless act. We extend to our Baptist brethren best wishes, and any help that we may be able to give them in this mattesr. Hon. Fleming G. dußignon died at his home in Atlanta on Friday after an illness extending through several years. There were few bet ter known men in the state than Fleming dußignon. For many years he was identified with politics, and as a lawyer he stood at the very front of the profession. He served a number of years in the legislature, was president of the state senate, was a candidate for the United States senate against the late Charles F. Crisp, and was many times urged to make the race for governor. | Two Thanksgiving Proclamations. BY PRESIDENT TAFT. During this past year we have been highly blessed. No great calamities of flood or tempest or epidemic of sickness have befallen us. We have lived in quietness, undisturbed by wars or rumors of wars. Peace and the plenty of bounteous crops and of great industrial pro duction animate a cheerful and resolute people to all the renewed en ergies of beneficent industry and material and moral progress. It is altogether fitting that we should humbly and gratefully acknowledge the divine source of these blessings. Therefore, I appoint Thursday, the twenty-fifth day of November, as a day of general thanksgiving, and I call upon the people on that day, laying aside their usual vocations, to repair to their churches and unite in appropriate services of praise and thanks to Almighty God. (Signed) WILLIAM H. TAFT, President. BY GOVERNOR BROWN. Many are the blessings vouchsafed to our people from the plen teous palm of the great Father, in this harvest-time of a most bountiful year. The profits arising from advanced prices in cotton have more than made up for crop deficiency; the yield of corn has been so unusual that the cribs of the husbandman are tuller than for years of the golden grain of the field; the larder and the smoke-house are comforting reminders of the plethor of ante-bellum days, while the heavy hand of the baneful credit system is gradually, but surely, being lifted from the home of the provident planter. No harsh clashes between capital and labor, or other disorders threaten the peace and the prosperity of our state; no famine or pesti lence has interrupted the health or the happiness of our people; and good times bless every section and all the interests of our beloved commonwealth. Therefore, in accordance with the custom that has obtained from the earliest days of the republic, and the action of the President of the United States, I, Joseph M. Brown, do issue this my proclamation designating Thursday, the 25th day of November, 1909, as a day of thanksgiving. | On that day the people are requested to rest from regular occu pations, and to assemble in houses of worship and about the family al tars to give thanks to Almighty God for his multiplied blessings. 1 especially request that the widow and orphan, the poor and the afflicted be remembered by word and deed. (Signed) JOSEPH M. BROWN, Governor. The Grifin News thinks it is enough for the existing general as sembly of Georgia to meet in ordi nary and called sessions as frequent ly as it does without reviving the legislature of 1884-85. Nevertheless a call has been issned for a reunion !in Atlanta on the Bth of November of the survivors of that body. Th 2 list includes such notables as Judge Dick Russell, Ex-Governor Northen, Ex-Governor Terrell, Railroad Com missioger O. B. Stevens, Pension Commissioner J. W. Lindsey, Attor ney-General Jno. C. Hart and Ex- Congressman Carter Tate. I The Augusta Herald makes this llevel-headed observation: ‘Now, if iMr. Rockefeller had given that mil lion to help put the boll weevil out of business some practical good might have resulted from the spend ing of the money.” Dawson is the third town, and the first of its size, in the south to in augurate medical examination of school children. Dawson and Daw son people have the habit of keeping right up in the front of the proces sion. The heart thrills with sorrow and sympathy to read of the scenes of human agony and distress at the St. Paul mine, at Cherry, 111,, and the sadness of it is that such horrible accidents seem to be inevitable. ; l The Griffin News thinks that ru ‘mor that Roosevelt had been killed 'was started by his friends just to iremind the public that he is still alive. | “One million dollars seems to be too much worm medicine,” says the Chattanooga News. It will be spurned by the body and the people.” Thanksgiving Day will remind us all of how much we have to be grate ful for if we would only stop to think of it. A crazy man in Virginia thought he was Roosevelt. Perfectly natural. NORTH CAROLINA NIGH BEEL. From the New York World. Supreme court justices laughed long and heartily at the hearing of a near beer case from Charlotte, N. C. That city imposes a thousand dollar license tax on near beer sa loons, and one Dannenberg contends it is unconstitutional because excess ive, and says near beer is in the same class as soda water. The state contends cities have a right to regu late beverages allowed under the state prohibition law. ~* . Attorney-General Bickett, appear ing for the state, said: ‘Near beer finds ready sale as a substitute for the real article. Bibulous constit uents cry for it. It is made by peo ple who make beer. It looks, smells and tastes like beer. It is served by the same old bartenders, yet this court is asked to relegate this lusty beverage, the scion of centuries of vats, to the insipid level of soda water. It scorns soda water as Roosevelt scorns a mollycoddle, and lords it over grape juice like a mint julep over a milk shake.” Sixty Bushels the Minimum, From the Albany Herald. The time has come when no farm er in southwest Georgia should be willing to accept less than sixty bushels of corn as the yield of a cul tivated acre, and when from eighty to 100 bushels or more to the acre will be the standard on many farms. It is simply a waste to cultivate land for the sake of such production as has been accepted in years past, and the farmer who in future shall con sider less than the maximum a sat isfactory yield for his corn fields will be simply marching at the rear of the procession while a place awaits him at the front. THE DAWSON NEWS, TERRELL COUNTY GAVE THEM “COLD FEET.” From the Albany Herald. Our Merrillville farmer failed to show up in Albany with his vield of corn, and the Observer acknowledges the indebtedness of a forfeit to the Albany Her ald. The man we backed laid down on us.—Moultrie Observ er. In the same way many men—hun dreds of them, we may say—*‘“laid down’ when they found that other' icontestants had gone ahead of them. lThe publication of the returns from, the contest gotten up by Col. J. R. Mercer of Dawson between Terrell} county farmers nearly a month in advance of the date set for the] ‘‘show down’” in The Herald’s con-| test gave ‘‘cold feet’’ to many of our contestants. It was extensively ad vertised that a Terrell county farm er had made 110 bushels of corn on an acre, and many of our contestants, knowing that they had fallen below this mark, decided not to enter their vields. But the Terrell county man’s returns to The Herald showed that he had made only 105 51-70 bushels, and he came in as second, taking the second prize, Mr. W. M. Saunders of Thomas county showing up with a yield of 109 11-70 bushels. But the corn-growing contest was a great success. Hundreds of farmers in southwest Georgia were induced to give the attention to corn that this important crop deserves at their hands, and they all made more corn, probably, than they ever made be tfore, and they now have the corn. . The ‘Ads” Benefactors to Many. From the Moultrie Observer. ’ The advertising columns of a news paper prove benefactors to many. How often you see advertised just the thing you have longed for, but either did not know it was in exist ence or did not know where to find it. How often do we learn where a good snug sum can be saved in making our purchases. How many have been benefited in various ways, by finding some valuable little ar ticle they have lost, selling a cow, a horse, a farm or a home. Every year, as more and more people read newspapers, and read especially the advertising columns, the advertising business is growing and is becoming a greater blessing to mankind. Our “Homogeneous” Citizenship. From the Savannah Press. The mob in Illinois seems to be very much like the mob in Georgia, and to make bonfires of certain class es of criminals. Judge Taft’s “home geneous’’ speeches, in which he said that the people in the west were just the same sort of folks as the people in the south, will be remembered. The president is right. The mobs of Springfield and Cairo, 111., are just the same sort of stuff as the mobs in Atlanta and Newnan. They are just human, sometimes inhuman,. Knew Their Business. From the Blakely Reporter. It is said that on one train that left Macon for southwest Georgia one night during the fair there were at least a dozen men who had been robbed by pickpockets. It seems that those pickpockets knew which way to reach for ‘“live ones.’”’ If you desire a clear complexion take Foley's Orino Laxative for con stipation and liver trouble, as it will stimulate these organs and thor oughly cleanse your system, which is what everyone needs in order to fegl weli.
