It is evident that Calvin Cooledge will win the Republican nomination by a considerable majority of dele gates at the national convention of that party, Hiram Johnson, the Jim Reed of that organization, being his only opponent. Republicans nominate under the majority rule, while the Democratic party continues to operate under the two thirds rule, which should have long ago been abolished, as it places the minority in a position where it can defeat the will of not only a majority of the convention delegates, but also of the people. For this reason, it is very seldom that the choice of even a decisive majority of the democratic party is nominated for president, and some “dark horse” generally walks away with the plum. A number of these sable colored horses are already scheming to defeat the strongest democrat in the presidential contest, by alacing “favorite” lons in nomination in their respective states, so as to give them control of their delegations to the national democratic convention, and it is only necessary to capture one over one third of the total mem bership of that body to defeat the will of an overwhelming majority. The only vowed democratic can didates in the field, at this time, are William G. McAdoo, Oscar W. Underwood, Cox, of Ohio, and the notorious Jim Reed, of Missouri. Cox will probably carry his own state, and nothing more, while it is corf fidently predicted that McAdoo will capture Missouri. Where the Ohio delegation will go when the break away hour comes in the convention, is unknown. McAdoo and Underwood are the only candidates in the field who will carry a single state except his own. Underwood is clean, able and first class presidential timber, but stands no chance of receiving the convention vote of over a dozen states, his principal strength being in the south. Even if nominated there would be no chance of election, for the reason that the women and also the prohi # ♦ bitio vote, inside his party, would not support him because he opposed women suffrage, and the federal constitutional amendment abolish ing the liquor traffic, both of which McAdoo favored. The labor vote of the entire coun try will stand by McAdoo, as will the great body of the farmers in the west and middle West, because of what he did for them secre tary of the treasury. He is responsible for the law that enables farmers to borrow money from the federal reserve banks, at 5 per cent interest, and on 33 years time, if they see fit to keep the money for that time, but can repay whenever they choose, within that limitation. He and Senator Glass, of Virginia, drafted the federal reserve bank law, which is the greatest piece of legislaation enacted in over a half century, as it destroyed the power of predatory wealth to corner the money of the country and produce panies at will. The only two states that have had primaries for the presidential nom ination up to this date, were carried by him. ' The republicans in congress, aid ed and abetted by Senator Jim Reed, fearing McAdoo’s strength before the American people, undertook to besmirch his record by connecting him with the notorious Teapot Dome oil deal, but he asked to go before the senatorial investigation com mittee, and absolutely demonstrated the falsity of that accusation. Doheney, of California, is a very large oil operator, and has made many millions in that business, among his holdings being large con cessions in the Mexican oil fields. Mexico had adopted a constitu tional amendment confiscating the oil lands in that country held by foreigners, and Doheney employed McAdoo to get that law repealed, which he succeeded in accomplish ing, and was paid a fee of $150.00. This all occurred years after Mc- Adoo had retired to private life and held no official position. Many Americans besides Do heney had oil properties in Mexico at that time, and their holdings were also protected. No sane, fair minded man can possibly see wherein Mr. McAdoo did the slightest wrong in this mat ter, and there Isn't a single lawyer in the United States who would have refused such employment. The people now fully understand this, and see the great injustice his political enemies attempted to do him, and will indignently resent it. McAdoo is a native Georgian, having been born in Cobb county, but his father moved to Milledge ville at the close of the Confeder ate war, in which he served, so that he grew to manhood there, and af terwrds went to New York. Georgia will stand by her native son, and roll up a sweeping majority for him on the 19th of this month. PROFITING THROUGH SERVICE. When merchants build new stores, add additional sales space, install new fixtures, improve their show windows, augment their sales forces, replenish their stocks with the best and newest, it is for the public. Of course they are in business for the purpose of making a living,' but to make that living they must first give service, so their first objective is always “to serve and please.” “Fair exchange is no robbery” Ss a business phrase which has been handed down from generation to gen eration and now seems to have ae luired immortality. The laborer ex •hanges his labor for his wage. The capitalist exchanges his money for his interest. The manufacturer ex changes his products -for his cost of productioni plus profit, the profes sional man exchanges his services for his fees or his salary, the store keeper exchanges his goods for cost plus service charge. Everybody is in business for himself by being in business for somebody else. Like the public official, the merchant is in business for society and therefore every member of that society is his employer, his boss. One of the compensations of busi ness is public recognition and appreciation come to none sooner than to the business man who really serves. A flourishing trade is synon ymous with public trust and confi dence. Service must ever precede sucess is business. Descriptive of the modern spirit of business is that motto of an inter national club of business men which reads: “He who serves best profiteth most.” SMALL BEGINNING. The comparative unimportance of certain works of men, held by him at the time as of the highest inter est, and the amazing life inherent in what, in its beginning, is often looked upon as of no importance, is strikingly illustrated in two news dispatches of the day.

The Moabite stone, discovered in 1859, dating back to 850 B. C. is the earliest record of an alphabet the world possesses, except for this new discovery. To us of today the armistice wad the most important event in our lives. It meant the end of war, pri vation, death,, suffering. It meant— so we thought—a new world order, charity, peace, brotherho<Kl of na tions, rehabilitation, reconstruction, happiness.

It is more than the excellence and beauty of Buick design—more than the greater riding comfort, power and safety that Buick provides. Buick’s value comes from the sum total of all those Buick qualities and traditions which together make up Buick character. A Buick owner fully appreciates Buick character. He knows the dependable, satisfying and trouble-free transportation which Buick gives, however long or however far a Buick owner may elect to drive his car. -32-15-NP J. J.

George has been appointed as the ranking Democrat on the Sub-Committee of the Senate Committee on Post Office and Post Roads, to conduct the hear ings and to formulate a bill outh of the large number of hills introduced in the Senate providing for an incre ased compensation for postmasters and certain classes of post office and railway clerks, city carriers, and for maintenance or equipment allowance for R. F. D. carriers. The Sub- W. T. TANNER LAWRENCEVILLE, GA. committees of the Senate and House will conduct public hearings, com mencing March Srd. We frequently read of parties suffering and dying in cities from the effects of poison liquor. The doctors don’t seem to understand giving relief. Or it may be that the patient have not money sufficient to pay any of these physicians for their medicine, time and trouble. Medici nes come high now. Even a dose of saults. We have no deaths from no deaths in this country. Everone who drinks it and gets on too much never thinks about sending for a physician, but uses his own remedy. First by sticking his forefinger of the right hand down hi throat, which is sure to make him vimit. If the sttomach seems to be scorched the patient eats a spoonful of pure lard to draw out the fire, followed by six raw eggs to heal the damaged places in theinner tube or- lining of the stomach. TThis puts the patient in tip-top shape, ready to chamber a pint or more of sour kraut. This fits him up so he can walk the prohibition or temperance plank if he decides, and get home before morning.—Dahlonega Nugget. SEND US YOUR JOB WORK Decision on Printing Georgia Department Reports Is Deferred Atlanta, Ga.—Decision to post pone action on the manner in which state department reports are to be printed this year, until the legislat ure meets in June, was reached at a meetingof the state printing commis sion, held Thursday morning. Last year the legislature pased a bill providing that all department re ports shall be published in one blue book, instead of spearately, as here tofore. The idea, it is presumed, was to enconomise on the printing cost. When it was found Thursday that the cost, instead of being lower, would be higher, it was decided to ask the legislature just what portions of the reports it desired eliminated, if any.
