IN FOCRTII OONORKnniONAL DISTBIIIT.
Official Organ of Coweta County.

WHY QUESTION THE MOTIVE?
Tho announced purpose of John D.
Rockefeller, the oil magnate, to devote
a large part of hiB enormous wealth to
philanthropic objects is alleged by some
to bo duo to the pious influence of his
son, John D., jr., and by others to a
disposition on tho part of tho elder
Rockefeller to yield to tho promptings
of a quickened conscience, and in this
manner make restitution to the people
of a considerable share of his “ill-got
ten gains,” so to speak. Commenting
upon this view of tho case the Phila
delphia Record very aptly says:
"Whether this gratuitous assumption
be true or not, makes little difference.
It makes still less to know what motive
inspired father and son to take this no
ble resolution to part with tho riches
which most men so highly prize. When
an action is good, it is not merely im
pertinent but malignant to search for a
bad motive behind. What remains is,
that the active philanthropy of the
Rockefellers is the highest of human
virtues in this commercial age.”
We fully agree with our Philadelphia
contemporary. The narrowness and
prejudice of many self-assumed purists
in misjudging and sneering at the phil
anthropic purposes of such men as
Rockefeller and Carnegie in devoting a
portion of their large wealth to worthy
enterprises designed for the uplift and
relief of humanity, in itB various phases
of depravity and suffering, passes un
derstanding in this Christian age. Ex
pended wisely and in the right spirit,
as these men appear to be trying to do,
Rockefeller’s money and Carnegie’s
money will go as far and do as much
good as money obtained from any other
philanthropic source, and peevish argu
ments to the contrary are simply ridic
ulous.
■OPENING NOTE OF THE STATE
CAMPAIGN.
The announcement of Hon. J. Pope
Brown, given to the public last week,,
that ho would not be a candidate to suc
ceed himself as State Treasurer, has
opened tho way for a lively coolest for
that office. Hon. W. J. Speer, of At
lanta, former State Treasurer, has al
ready announced; Hon. B. F. Perry, the
present Assistant State Treasurer, in
timates in a newspapor interview that
he will likely be in the race; and Hon.
P. M. Hawes, of Elberton, is also being
talked of as a probable candidate.
Mr. Speer’s announcement, and Mr.
Perry’s interview, nro especially inter
esting at this time, ns sounding the first
note of tho State campaign. Whether
any of tho other State House officials
will have any opposition will, of course,
depend on future developments.
Mr. Speer’s announcement is as fol
lows: •
“To the People of Georgia: Hon.
Pope Brown having declined to become
a candidate to succeed himself as State
Treasurer, I hereby announce my
self a candidate for that office, subject
to the action of the Democratic party
at the next primary for the selection of
State House officers. My candidncy is
based on my qualifications to fill the of
fice of State Treasurer, as demonstrated
by long and faithful service formerly
in that capacity, and from which office
I voluntarily retired several years ago
on account of ill health. My health
Rats, and all Boodlers that boosted him
nto Office, may see how they avenge
themselves on this Spawn of Chance.
Let the People rally to the deposed
platform Artist, in that he may warm
the bottom of the Governor’s chair and
give them another Sample of real Re
form.”
The Grouch continued to bawl, but
the People hearkened not.
Moral.—When you get your politi
cal I’odex kicked away make a hot run
for an Organ and play to an unappre
ciative Public that truthful old tune
"Jordan’s a Hard Road to Travel."
Camp on the trail of your Political un
doers, and shave around their ankles
with your Organ razor. Grimp.
Rome Man Believes in Tennessee Oil
Company.
Roma Tribune-Herald, 8th inat*
“What about that oil stock you told
of in Sunday’s Tribune-Herald?” was
a question put to Mr. H. D. Hill yes
terday by a number of interested peo
ple.
“I meant just what the article said,”
replied Mr. Hill. “I have investigated
this proposition carefully, and it is the
beat thing I ever found, I actually be
lieve that a hundred dollars invested in
the stock by these young men around
town will make them more than they
are earning in salaries before five years
have passed. The Tennessee Oil and
Gas Co. is capitalized at two millions,
a much lower figure than are most oil
companies, and the par value of each
share of the stock is 25 cents. It sells
at par, though the company does not
propose to sell any more stock than is
absolutely necessary for the successful
development of the property. It is
Southern money and Southern men be
hind the proposition, and the men are
such as I can put absolute confidence
in. J. R. McCollum, of Newnan, Ga.,
is president of the company; J. F. As
kew, a banker of Hogansville, Ga., is
vice-president, and W. W. Wisdom, of
Atlanta, is treasurer. The stock is reg
istered with the Central Bank and
Trust Co. of Atlanta, and every geolo
gist and chemist and oil expert that has
ever examined the proposition has said
that it is the beBt oil property in the
South. Many of the biggest fortunes
in the world were made from oil, and
when I see what these wells turn out,
and have it analyzed myself and find
that it contains 61 per cent, of illumi
nating oil and 16 per cent, of naphtha,
I am satisfied to risk a big wad of my
hard-earned savings in the stock with
perfect assurance that they will double
in value before I am a year older.”
Senoia Notes.
Sonofo Enterprise-Gazotto, 10th Inst.
Mr. H. B. Sasser, our clever post
man or, has purchased the pretty home
of Mr. W. S. Travis, in front of the
Methodist church, and expects to move
into U about mid-summer. Rev. and
Mrs. W. M. Wynn will reside with
them.
The stockholders of the Farmers &
Merchants Bank held their annual meet-
last Thursday morning. The report of
Cashier H. P. Redwine showed the
bank’s abuirs to be in fine shape, and
that 16 per cent, had been netted the
past year. An 8 per cent, cash dividend
was paid the stockholders and $4,000
ilacod to account of undivided profits.
This is a fine showing, and all parties
interested were well pleased with the
excellent showing made. The old offi
cers and directors were re-elected, the
former being M. H. Couch, president;
R. L. Hardy and C. C. McKnight, vice-
iresidents; H. P. Redwine, cashier; W.
3. Witham, financial agent.
Jonathan B. S. Davis, jr., the 14-
year-old son of Rev. and Mrs. W. A.
Davis, died Saturday morning about
2:30 o’clock, after a brief illness with
pneumonia. He seemed to realize sev
eral days before his death that the end
was approaching and called his father to
his bedside and talked with him about
death and his future, telling him
that death had no horror for him; that
the future was bright and clear, and
that he would soon make his home in
heaven. He was a bright boy, and ja
special favorite among his school-mates.
John, as he was familiarly known, was
fill the office again, and to that end I
beg the support of the people.
“Very respectfully,
“Wm. J. Speer,
Charging a violation of the pure food
law, and alleging that a quantity of
coca cola syrup seized in Chattanooga
last October did not contain the prop
erties of coca or cola, the U. S. Gov
ernment is again on the trail of the
Coca Coin Co., of Atlanta, and will
prosecute the case in the Federal Court.
After the seizure of the syrup samples
wore sent to Washington tb be anal

The Little Man and the Grouch.
A FABLE.
A little Mon was once Kicked out of
Office by a tyg, ferocious Satrap. The
little Man nursed his grievance, and it
grew apace until it became foster Child
of the People, who, by their suffrages,
set the little one in the Satrap’s chair,
to the disgruntlement of the Satrap and
his swashbucklers. It so fell out that
the Satrap had an Organ and an Organ
ist, (the same being a Grouch for rea
sons,) who played many Grouchy, windy
tunes on the Organ. He played it Early
and Late, in Season and out of Season;
kicked the pedals, Banged the key
board, blew the Bellows, thereby bel-
lowaing himself. But, notwithstanding
theso physical infirmities, the Organist
continued to squeak in this Monotonous
Refrain: “The little One, whom the
People made a mistake in elevating to
the Gubernatorial chair, is a bad Man,
who devours People’s substance and
obeys not the Commands of the Law
givers. The People demand that we
give him a political Skinning, and nail
his Hide on a box-car door, so that the
Trusts, Liquor men, the Railroad inter
ims spent half a century preaching the
osgel, and who is now on a bed of af-
iction at his home in Newnan. He
joined the Senoia Baptist church in
April, 1906, and was baptized by Rev.
J. W. R. Jenkins. The funeral service
was conducted at the Baptist church
Sunday morning at 11 o'clock by Rev.
Chas. E. Hitt, assisted by Revs. J. W.
R. Jenkins, E. W. Jones andC. C. Car
son, and the remains were laid to rest
in the city cemetery. Six of his young
friends, Hunter Towns, Dan Higgins,
Pyron Conrially, J. B. Hutchinson,
Paul Horton and Gus Huddleston acted
as pallbearers. The floral offerings
were pretty and elaborate.

WE ADMIT THAT
COL. ROOSEVELT r
Has explored the jungles of Africa, and has slain
many wild animals. We also admit that we are
selling more goods now than we ever sold. The
only reason we can give for this is, we hp,ve added
more fancy groceries to our stock, both domestic
and imported, than we ever handled before. And,
what is more to the point, we are selling them at
prices that can’t be duplicated in Newnan. Indeed,
we would be glad to get the same prices for many
articles that others charge;—but everybody buys
at the same price here. We don’t make a practice
of selling a few staples at eost, and then make an
enormous profit on other goods. We treat all alike,
guaranteeing the very lowest prices on every article
we sell.
