I'he Herald and Advertiser Cotton Situation as Viewed in New York. NEWNAN, PIRDAY, OCT. 23. An Object Lesson to Southern Far mers. Richmond (Vn.1 Tlmita-DliiiJfileh. A Texas dispatch recites that the Herman farmers, who constitute a ma jority m Guadalupe county, are able to liold, anil are bolding, their cotton without assistance from the banks, be cause they produce on their farms near ly everything in the way of food that their families require. Here is an ob ject lesson of the value of crop diversi fication which those farmers in the .South who persist in devoting all their acreage to the growing of one staple— and they are, unfortunately, still in a large majority —would do well to pon der. There is no section of the country which is so well adapted to diversified farming as the South, and the tiller of the soii in the Southern States, wheth er he resides in the cotton or the tobac co belt, who puts all his eggs in one basket, does so from choice rattier than from any necessity imposed by nature. There isn’t a farmer in all the territo ry from Maryland to Texas who could not, if he would, render himself practi cally independent of the outside world in the matter of food products for the support of himself and his family, and of forage for the maintenance of the cattle within hiB gates; nor is there one who wouldn't be the gainer in pocket, even in ordinary times, by raising his own meat, grain and hay, in stead of buying from the West and the North. That the example of the Ger man farmers in the Texas county re ferred to above has not been more gen erally followed in the South is the chief reason why the closing of fo eign mar kets for cotton, incident to the out break of hostilities in Europe, finds the agricultural interests in this greut sec tion in the comparatively helpless con dition in which they now are. But that which at first threatened to assume the proportions of a great misfortune will in the end prove to be one of the greatest blessings that ever came to the South, if the truth which it so pointedly and strongly stressed shall be generally ap plied. Siamese National Hymn. While playing in Detroit recently, Joe Cawthorn, star of Klaw & Gran ger's massive production, 'Tittle Nemo,” went over to see the ponies run at Windsor. Canada. Although in the United States it is difficult to get a bet down on the horses, it is just as easy to do any amount of wagering across the Canadian border. Joe liked several fillies and backed his judgment strong by placing a few stiff jets down. ■ None of his selections turned up with the money and Caw thorn went disconsolately back to his hotel in Detroit. He was moodily sawing off a piece of steak when Harry Kelly came along. Noticing Cawthorn’s for lorn look, he said: "Well, for a German comedian you look terribly serious. ” "t am serious,” he responded. ‘‘In fact,” he went. on. "I am just about to sing the Siamese National Hymn.” “The Siamese National Hymn,” echoed Kelly, questioningly. “Yes.” said Cawthorn. handing u paper. “Here’s a copy of it. situr it to the tune of 'America.' ” And this is wliat Kelly read: siamk.sk national hymn. Edward Low HanMt ir. Atlanta Cr'irtrinn. New York, Oct. If,.-With 5328,000,- (100 available lor handling the cotlon situation it would appear that only such details remain to tie settled as will ac cord with the ordinary requirement* of hanking, and be also satisfactory to both producers and consumers, iti view of possible emergencies brought about liy the war. This week will witness the fact that 7,600,000 bales of cotton have passed through the gin-houses, baled and ready for the market There remain 7,500,000 bales more, at least, to be added as a result of the sea son's harvest, and the weight of this cotton on the market is responsible for the problem now agitating the country, and which has become national and in ternational in its importance in the world of finance and economics. Brices for actual cotton were quoted lower for nearly all Southern markets yesterday. As low as f>i cents per pound was mentioned on a basis for middling, and better grades were or dered delivered in New York at 7Ac. per pound. The volume of sales was in creased, but offerings were much heav ier. Southern planters are reported to be preparing to plant their cotton lands in other crops. Alfalfa will be largely sub- stistuted where land is suitable. The planting of grains will be widely re sorted to. What the Editor Knows. A good many editors are said not to know much, says an exchange. The trouble is, they know a lot of stuff they dure not tell. They know who drinks the beer, and they know the la dies who deviate from the straight path of rectitude, and tte boys who smoke in the alleys and dark places, and the girls who are out auto riding till th > roosters crow for daylight. They know the ft Hows who are good pay and they know the fellows who can’t he trusted for a tobacco sack full of salt. They could guess at once why some fellows are as they are, and they can guess pretty closely what they do to make them so. Even in a to’wn like this they know enough to make one of the red-hottest, rip-roaringest, high- geared, triple-action, chain-lightning editions you ever read. But they also know that it is best for the community and themselves to let the law take care of humanity's devilment and publish only such news as will do to read in the home. Editors generally pursue this policy, and thereby live longer and get more enjoyment *ut of life. him You "Ova Tnnmw Siam. Myva Tatmaa Siam. < )vu TatwKiH.

Secretary Garrison, apropos of his bill for creating six vice admirals, said at a luncheon in Washington: "This bill will make things better from a diplomatic standpoint, though the actual working of the navy will re main the same. Yes, the navy itself will be like Brown. “Brown, idle through slack times, started to tramp to Buffalo by way of the Erie Canal to look for a job. ‘‘He met on his way a good many canal boats coming up and down, and finally, stopping a canal boat captain, he offered to work his passage. "The captain took him on and set him to leading the horses along the towpath. "He led the horses for two days, thinking hard. On the third day he had thought it all out, and he resigned. “ ‘By the [lowers,’ he said, 'I might a s well walk as work my passage.' ” Keep Is Congress Trying to Do Something ? Washington,; (let.;* 13. — fcfforts of Southern members of Congress to pro cure legislation aimed to relieve the cotton situation resulting from the cur tailment of European markets aroused considerable doubt to-day as to the time of adjournment. Representative I Underwood, the House leader, said the attitude of leg islators from the cotton States prac tically had made adjournment impossi ble by next Saturday. Senator Simmons’, in charge of the war tax measure, insisted a vote would be '■eached by Saturday night. An amendment will be proposed to-morrow by Southern Senators to provide for a $250,000,000 Government bond issue for the purchase of 5,(XX),000 bales of cot ton. or one-third of the season's crop. No one would venture a prediction as to the fate of the amendment. Should it he defeated, Southern House mem bers may delay final action on the measure pending another effort to get relief. Hard to Believe. Albany Herald. The Commissioner of Tensions re ports that the Government paid out a total of $172,-117,5-10 in pensions in the fiscal year ending June 30. This is a reduction of nearly two million dollars from the$174,171,(160 which the Govern ment paid to pensioners in 1913, the year when the pensions reached high- water mark. Note the fact that for the first time since the War Between the States a year has passed which did not witness an increase of the pension burden. From lSiili to 1914, the Government has paid to war pensioners the almost unbelievable sum of $-1.633,511,926. Year after year the pension disbursements have increased, thanks to a system which made it possible for men who never smelled powder, wore a uniform or rendered the smallest patriotic ser vice during the war. to get their names on the pension roll, via the nefarious "private pension bill,” And now. at last, the annual pen sion expenditure has failed to show an increase over the preceding year.

GftaM N Reliable evidence is abundant that women 25 are constantly being restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound The many testimonial letters that \vc are continually pub lishing in the newspapers—hundreds of them—are all genu ine, true and unsolicited expressions of heartfelt gratitude for the freedom from suffering that has come to these women solely through the use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. All- lll - ian Money could not buy nor any kind of influence obtain such recommendations; you may depend upon it that any testimonial we publish is honest and true—if you have any doubt of this write to the women whose true names and addresses are always given, and learn for yourself. I Read this one from Mrs. Waters: Camden, N..T.—“I was sick for two years with nervous spells, and my kidneys were affected. I had a doctor all the time and used a galvanic battery, but nothing did me any good. I was not able to go to lied, but speut my time on n couch or in a sleeping-chair, and soon became almost a skeleton. Finally my doctor went away for his health, and my husband hoard of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and got me some. In two months I got relief and now l am like a new woman and am at my usual weight. 1 1 recommend your medicine to every 011c and so docs my husband.”—Mrs. Tillix Watkus, 1135 Knight St., Camden, N.J. \ / A i And this one from Mrs. Haddock: e Us Utica, Oki.a.—“I was weak and nervous, not able to do my work and scarcely able to be on my feet. I had backache, headache, palpi tation of the heart, trouble with my bowels, and inflammation. Since taking the Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Ooni]>ouncl I am better than I have been for twenty years. I think it is a wonderful medi cine ana I have recommended it to others.”—Mrs. Maiiv Ann Had dock, Utica, Oklahoma. Now answer this question if you can. Why should a woman continue to suffer without first giving Lvdia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound a trial ? You know that it has saved many others—why should it fail in your case? For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy f or fe male ills. No one sick with woman’s ailments does justice to herself if she does not try this fa mous medicine made from roots and herbs, it ms restored so many suffering women to health.

McClure, Opposing Hoke Smith. 1 am making this race as a busi ness man on a business platform. 1 would not have come out at all had not Senator Smith guaranteed that if you would nominate him, he would stay in Washington, and get you 12 cents for cotton, well know, ing the primary would be over be fore you would have time to know whether he was telling the truth or uot. Congress could loan S cents a pound on cotton at 3 per cent inter est—that is as much as they get— If you elect McClure and l-lutchens, the whole Democratic party, includ ing the Administration will decide It is time to do something to relieve cotton and take care of the South in the manner they take care of the West and Wall street when they are in distress. Up to now It lias been proper for you to blame Congress and Hoke for not doing anything, but if you rote to re-elect him now, the blame rests on yourself. It is up to you to protect your own interests. Now it is your time to set even. Don’t be footeil by more promises'. Judge G. R. Hutchens, Opposing Tom Hardwick. Who destroyed tile Democratic par ty in Georgia? Hoke Smith and T. W. Hardwick. Hardwick nominated against the will of the people by rank fraud binds no body to support him. •• The Smith-Hardwtck combination turned out of the Macon convention 39 legally accredited delegates and put in men they could control in order to de.feat the will of the people. Titer did so. 1 come now and appeal to the people themselves. Where are the rights of the people? Conditions in Georgia demand two white political parties—NOW. IT ide ND .rid. Don't be timid, if you favor decent politics vote for McClure and Hutchens on November 3d. There's no Democratic party in Georgia now. It is a "Hoax Myth" par- ty or nothing. PLATFORM OF THE PROGRESSIVE PARTY. 1. We favor a measure along tile lines of the bill presented in Congress by Representative Henry. 2. We stand on the Constitution of the United States as to the wisdom •f the separation of the affairs of Church and State. 3. We feel that it would be a shame for any Prohibition state to be rep resented in the United States Senate by a tool of the whisky ring, and we favor the submission of a Constitutional Amendment on the prohibition of the liquor traffic. 4. We condemn the failure of the present administration to provide an efficient system of rural credits, which, if now law, would be of untold beu- etit to the farmers in their present extremity. 6. We favor the State furnishing school books free to all children in the public schools. 6. We protest against our Inadequate and inefficient election laws. In primary election we favor a common primary for all parties, held on the 1 \ y re- ppear id for next. .etion ppear- .iU4tiC«* \ ,Judfe same day, under the supervision and at the expense of the state. In gen eral elections, we stand for the Australian ballot. 7. We believe the time has arrived when the best interests of Georgia and of the South demand a strong second white political party based upon sound governmental principles. We expect thousands of men to vote our ticket this time who may never vote it again, and they are at perfect liberty to return to their own parties next election. We are asking them to vote with us and rebuke the indif ference shown onr section. If you want to help in any way write con fidentially to J. L. SIBLEY, Campaign Manager. Atlanta. Ga.
