WHAT GEORGIA NEEDS.
‘"What Georgia needs is to draft
the very best constructive thought
of the state into legislative service,
at least the crisis that con
fronts the state has been successful
ly overcome.
‘"lt will take sacrifices on the part
of big, outstanding men who do not
feel justified, under present
rtar.ces, to make the race, or to en
ter into petty political scrambles,
but it is a duty to make these sacri
fices.
There are some of the state’s
strongest men in the assembly to
day—many of them —but on the
whole the assembly is controlled by
politicians, and by too great a num
ber who make politics paramount to
the material interests of the state
and people.
“This condition can only be over
come by every county in the state se
lecting for the assembly some one or
naors.as the number requires, from
among the strongest and most force
ful and progressive men in the coun
ty for legislative service. And then
such men should be chosen without
opposition.
“There must be more business and
less politics in the government of
Georgia.”—The Atlanta Constitu
tion, January 3rd.
The foregoing is a part of an edi
torial appearing in the Constitution,
of date stated. It is hardly possible
to conceive of a more important sug
gestion for consideration by the peo
ple, than as outlined in the forego
ing.
Of course, we speak of this as a
state-wide proposition, with no one
in mind, but give space for it with
the hope that the press of the state
will give expression to their views on
what, to our mind, is a matter of vi
tal importance for consideration by
the public.
CUTTING ADVERTISING.
Somebody, we do not krow whom,
wrote the fallowing whichwe find
quoted in the Madison Madisonian:
“Tatting down on the advertising
appropriation when business is dull
islike cutting down on the cow feed
when the mlik runs short.'’
This is so true it scaroe'y needs
to be emphasized. Where business is
dull, it is logical to conclid that all
want to make their money buy as
much as it '.tail, and that they are,
therefore, d;ii p for bi \ ains. No
buyer Jxa.i yet look' d for ! ar
in a p'aie that does < 'i ad• * r
tisc them. The logical con.-i.sl is
tr at the •? ml* rut who he bargains
ti i if. :• will i dvertise the fact in
or-;oi to obtain uade.
It is no argument to say that the
people have no money and that
therefore, it is i seless to advertise.
The people have money They may
not have as much some times as they
h ive at others, but they have some,
and they must have at least some of
the things the merchants sell. They
cannot get along forever without
buying.
What is the result? Everyone be
gins to look around to see where he
can get the most for his money.
Naturally he looks over his newspa
per to see what is being offered, by
whom and at what price. He is hunt
ing the place where his dollar will
have the greatest purchasing power.
He has sense enough to know that
the man who advertises is not mak
ing him pay the advertising bill. On
the contrary, he knows that the man
who does not advertise, due to the
absense of trade at his place of bus
iness is paying the advertising bill
of the merehantnext door who gets
the trade.
When business is dull the people
haveless money to spend than usual,
it is the time for the merchant to
place before the buying public such
inducements ,as he has to offer.
When the cow shows signs of giving
less milk the owner gives her more
feed; he does not cut down on it. He
does something that will cause her
to give more milk.
The lesson for the merchant to
learn —that is for those who have
not already learned it—is that when
business is dull feed it, so that his
store will produce more; and the
• feed is advertising.
merchant who cuts his adver
iill on account of the dullness
iness is contributing to th

NEEDS LEGISLATION.
The Macon News thinks that the
consolidation of the city of Macon
' and the county of Bibb would be a
; good thing. Public sentiment up
! there, it says, is thoroughly united
jin favor of the measure, which
means much to the taxpayers of the
j community. The News hopes that the
j plan for consolidation will be work
; ed out at the earliest possible mo
ment. V
The Macon paper thinks it is high
ly improbable that all the changes
can be made without some amend
ment to the State Constitution. It
hopes that the necessary measure
willbe passed by the next General
Assembly in order that it may be
voted upon at the next general elec
tion, which takes place in November.
Unless the proper legislative steps
arc taken next summer it would be
necessary to wait two years from
next fall. It is a little more than five
months before the General Assem
bly meets. The Macon News thinks
it should not take five months to
.'raw up a plan for city and county
consolidation. It calls on the civic or
ganizationsto get in behind the
Chamber of Commerce for putting
through the reform.
In case there should be other coun
tiesand cities in the position of Bibb
and Macon which wish to try ths ex
perment, it would be necessary to
pass a general bill instead of a local
ill. Of course, a constitutional
amendment would be genera!. It is
assumed that the different communi
ties would have to vote upon this
matter before legislation is finally
enacted in Atlanta.

SEND US YOUR JOB WORK
FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER,
Having bean solicited by many
good citizens, from every section of
the county to make the race for
county commissioner, I hereby an
nounce my candidacy for said office
at the primary election, and should
I be elected I pledge myself to dis
charge ai duties of the office.
Here arc- a few items that I am
not in favor of, and some that I am:
I don’t believe in a county com
missioner being clerk of board of
comruisioners,
I am not in favor of convicts
staying in winter quarters the year
round, and being transported to
their work in trucks.
Am not in favor of the county be
ing cut in three departments, for
there is more or less friction with
board of commissioners.
Believe in the tax payers knowing
twice a year by an itemized state
ment through the papers where their
money has been spent.
In favor of all road taxes being
spent in the district where it was
collected.
Under the system that Gwinnett
county has been run for several
years, I can’t see why a man can’t
save the county at least $3,000 per
year.
Respectfully,
W. B. HOPSON.
