TOMM 1 ft (IT.
A natural intra-party schism in the
ranks of Democrats of fieorgia resulted
in the development of the “iirogres-
sive” wing, composed of public men
who wore determined not. to he shackled
any longer by machine politics and hy
the fetters of tradition and purposeless
precedent. The progressives let the
light of publicity illuminate public af
fairs. They enacted legislation which
ended corporation rule in Georgia. They
took the government bark to the peo
ple, Those who opposed these policies
became known, and are still known, as
reactionaries. They nrc the ultra-con
servatives, the standpatters, who live
in the past, who believe that because
somebody else did something a half a
century ago the same thing should be
done to-day. As the Chinese worship
ancestors, they revere the past. The
progressives, on the other hand, are
inarching on, abreast with the times.
Rut these reactionaries do not like the
inherent stigma of their name. They
say that they, too, are progressives.
Didn’t Gov. Slaton declare to the con
vention, “I am a progressive," while a
snicker went around the hall?—Macon
News.
The above is a fair specimen of the
tommyrot which some of the Iioke
Smith organs are accustomed to indulge
from time to time when they try to he
nasty. The sneering reference to Gov.
Slaton is a case in point; yet if there is
a man in public life to-day who deserves
to he classed ns a real progressive it is
Gov. Slaton -not in the puling and
meaningless sense that the term is
employed by those who would claim for
the Smith faction all that is pure
in purpose and valuable in achieve
ment, hut in constructive statesmanship
and results accomplished. Under the
latter head Mr. Sluton lias to the credit
of his administration as Governor some
uf the best and moat useful measures
that have been enacted into law during
the oast twenty-live years—measures
that were unanimously indorsed by the
late State Convention. Why the same
body of Democrats indorsed Gov. Sla
ton’s policies while refusing him the
nomination for the Senatorship can be
best explained, perhaps, l>v the late
Mr. Keldur, who is said to have "also
ran,"

FOR "WAR TIMER."
The advice to "trade at home" is al
ways good, and particularly so at. this
time. If everybody in Rome and Floyd
county would trade at home we
would have a prosperity that even
a European war could not shake.
Ruying away from home is always
an expensive proposition. The mon
ey that, goes into railroad fare, ex
press charges. etc., might as well be
saved, and the profit go to the people
who help make you a living. Atlanta
is never going to do anything to help
Rome, and no Rome woman, in the
present emergency, ought to spend a
dollar inlying goods in Atlanta, or any
place else, except at home. If the war
could get our people into the buy-at-
home habit it would lie worth thousands
of dollars to them and to their home
merchants. — Rome Tribune-Herald.
The policy advocated by our Rome
contemporary is the same doctrine The
Herald and Advertiser has been preach
ing for yenrs. If the many thousands
of dollars that llow annually into the
colters of Atlanta merchants from
Newnan buyers were kept at home this
town and community would be infin
itely better etf. The lure of Atlanta is
a funny thing, anyway. Article hy
article and dollar for dollar, the aver
age Newnan shopper can save money
every day in the year hy trading with
the home merchant, and obtain at the
same time goods of equal quality.
The serious point to be considered is
(hat when a dollar is sent away for any
article that may be purchased at home
the community is that much poorer.
There is no finer spirit of patriotism
than that which encourages and patron-
ices home enterprises.
Senoia Enterprise-Gazette: "Before
the election Senator Smith said he
would see to it that the Government
would come to the aid of Georgia far
mers and that they would get 12 or 15
cents per pound for this cotton crop.
Now he says about the only remedy is
in diversifying the crop next year. Di
versification is mighty good doctrine
and we would like to see the farmers
follow the suggestion, like the politi
cians followed him at Macon; hut the
first thing they need is something to
relieve the situation for the present
crop. We hope those Washington offi-
ciuls will do something, and do it quick.
The crop is on hand, and many poor
pie must dispose of what they
peo|
nuvt
lave."
According to a recent report of the
II. S. Census Bureau there are 236,271
farms in Georgia, and the annual cost
of fertilizers used on these farms
amounts to S16.S60.149. The report
further shows that. Georgia uses more
commercial fertilisers than any State
in the Union, and also shows the lar
gest gain in purchases during the past
ten years, the total cost for fertilizers
ten years ago being $11,121,620 less
than in 1914. During the same period
the cost of fertilizers for the entire na
tion increased from Sod.OOo.IWO to $115,-
000,000.
Express Company Makes Low Rate
on Meat Shipments.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. K.—The markets
of Atlanta are open to the farmers of
Georgia who wish to ship fresh meats
to Atlanta. This has been made pos
sible hy an ordinance adopted hy the
city of Atlanta which permits any such
fresh meats, when bearing proper cer
tificate signed by the shipper, to be
sent to Atlanta, without the inspection
and approval of an authorized State
meat inspector. It is provided, how
ever, that before being offered for sale
fresh meats shall he inspected and ap
proved by one of the meat inspectors
for the city of Atlanta, who will visit
each depot in Atlanta in the morning
and afternoon of each day for the pur
pose of making this inspection.
With the city markets and the city
homes of Atlanta open to such ship
ments and the Southern Express Co.
offering low rates and prompt delivery
in Atlanta, the farmers are afforded a
wonderful market for their meats.
What is true of Atlanta will probably
he true of other cities of the State in a
short while. Atlanta has long been an
open market for fruits, vegetables and
other country produce, hut it is only
since the adoption of the ordinance re
ferred to above that it lias been pos
sible to express meats to this city with
satisfaction.
Wear Cotton Goods Made in Griffin.
Griffin News and Sun.
Tailors in Gridin are busy making
Griffin men Griffin clothes of cotton
grown in the vicinity of Gridin and
manufactured in Gridin.
One mill superintendent reports that
he has every available loom in his im
mense mill running on one class of
suiting for men’s clothes. Local peo
ple are doing their part towards keep
ing money at home.
The women of Griffin are getting
ready to turn out their clothing made
of Griffin products. Terry cloth, the
material from which the famous Griffin
Turkish towels are made, will be worn
by Griffin women this fall and bids fair
to become a very fashionable fabric.
This goods makes up beautifully in
Russian blouse suits.
In this connection it may he stated
that M. J. Daniel is among the first to
carry out the suggestion of wearing
clothes of cotton grown at home and
manufactured in the city. He is wear
ing to-day a neat and nobby suit made
of Daytona suiting which was manu
factured by the Griffin Mills and tail
ored by a Griffin tailor.

Big South Georgia Farmer Will
Abandon Cotton.
Dawson, Sept. H.—J. W. Tilley, one
of the largest planters in Southwest
Georgia, is making a proposition to his
tenants and renters that will not only
help them tide over the present situa
tion, but make them and the county
more prosperous when the war crisis
ends.
Helms proposed to his renters to sur
render their lease notes if they will
agree to remain with him and plant
on'y five acres of cotton to the plow,
he agreeing to furnish them the actual
necessities and take for his rent a part
of the crops they grow, such as hay,
corn, oats, potatoes, hogs and cattle.
The same proposition is being made by
Mr. Tilley to his croppers or share ten
ants.
J. E. Wilkes, who haB marketed sev
eral hundred bales of cotton every sea
son in the past, has stated that he will
net plant a stalk of cotton next season.
He will devote his land to the produc
tion of foodstuffs for man and beast.
Po-Do-Lax Banishes Pimples.
Bad blood, pimples, headache, bilious
ness, torpid liver, constipation, etc.,
come from indigestion. Take Po-Do-
Lax, the pleasant and absolutely sure
laxative, and you won’t suffer from a
deranged stomach or other troubles. It
will tone up the liver and purify the
blood. Use it regularly and you will
stay well, have clear complexion and
steady nerves. Get a 50c. bottle to
day. Money back if not satisfied. Sold
by all druggists.
As regards the new project to finance
probably 4,600,000 to 5,000,000 hales of
the new crop by emergency currency to
approximately the amount of $200,000,-
000 based on warehouse receipts, it is
believed to be an admirable thing which
will go far to restore the equilibrium in
the cotton business and prevent the
marketing of large quantities of cotton
at unprolitably low prices. It will very
probably lessen the pressure of hedges
on the ma'ket. It will be conducive to
the farmer’s holding his cotton until he
can sell it, or most, of it, to advantage.
Of course, there is bound to ho some
selling at once in order to pay debts,
but probably there will he a spirit of
accommodation at the South to meet
the extraordinary demand for the time,
and this will go a long way toward eas
ing any natural pressure that might
otherwise exist. New York Journal of
Commerce.

HOW TO GET STRENGTH
after any sickness is purely a matter of
nourishment, whether the attack was
an ordinary cold or severe Alness; tin-
weakened force s cannot repulse disease
germs, and this is why a relapse is so
often fatal or w hy chronic weakness often
follows sickness.
Restoring strength to miMions of people
for forty years has proven the reui need
for taking Scott's Emulsion after any
sickness; nothing equals it nothing
compares with it. Its pure, medicinal
nourishment, free from nlcohol or opiates,
promptly creates rich blood, .strengthens

Big Farm Leased on Condition That
No Cotton Be Planted.
Griffin Nows and Sua.
Mr. J. W. Gresham has just leased a
312-acre farm on condition that the les
sor shall plant no cotton, the crops to
be restricted to food and forage.
Mr. Gresham plans to make this a
stock and dairy farm of the first mag
nitude. This is the first instance known
of a lease being made on these terms,
and it is understood that the necessity
for a movemei t of this kind was con
templated even before the war broke
out.
To many progressive landowners the
war has only emphasized the necessity
of having other crops than cotton to
fall back upon, to supply food for man
and beast.

get. _
