We call it by that name because it would he a misnomer to describe it as a Democratic convention, and one that might be resented by fully one-third of the delegates compos ing the gathering. The real personelle of that con vention will never be known. There was a credential commit tee, but who* it submitted its report and the secretary had started to read it, and had called four counties, only one of which had a representative, the leaders were quick to grasp the situation, and a member of "the steering committee promptly moved that the reading be disconDnued, and it was stopped writhout a dis senting vote. Tho small theatre in which the convention was held was comforta bly filled by delegates, alternates and outsiders, and everybody voted who wished to, but the single test vote allowed by the bosses showed udy 288 people participating in the proceedings. The gallery was empty. All the counties having six and four votes were represented, and they were entitled to cast the 196 votes of the 288 delegates actually present, so it follows that the 113 counties having 2 votes each, 226, had only 92 representatives, and that 46 counties were absolutely un represented, which was an eloquent protest against the tyranical and •usurpatory conduct of that now ig noble triumvirate, Bell, Hamilton nnd Randolph, whose names hereaf ter will be merely a tradition in the history of Georgia politics, and u:ed as a metaphor by future orators just as the Yazoo Fraud has been. As a matter of fact, there was no Valid reason, or necessity for calling a convention, as the delegates who attended it had no voice in its pro aceedings, and could not even make a motion, without the consent of the “steering committee” especially appointed to operate the steam roll er, with the Honorable Newt Mor ris, of Cobb, at the throttle, and always ready to pull it wide open the instant any of the prearranged plans of the conspirators seemed to be threatened. iOttly one delegate, not a member o? the steam roller steering com mittee, had the temerity to address the chairman, and that was the Hon, D. C. Barrow, of Chatham, who had the floor, and was recognized by the man at the throttle, but, instantly, and while Mr. Barrow was on his feet, a member of the steam roller committee, yelled “Mr. Chairman,” and was immediately recognized, and permitted to make a motion for a call of the previous question, which was hastily put and as promptly de clared carried, by the aforesaid New ton, by a rising vote, whereupon Mr. Barrow called for a division, and after the chairman had repeatedly called attention to the fact that a failure to adopt the call would open up the resolution pending for debate, said resolution being to instruct the District delegates to the New York convention to vote for Cohen for na tional committeeman for this state. Chairman Moms, following his explanation of the effect voting down the call for the previous ques tion would have, asked all in favor of it to stand up, and then those opposed to it to stand, and it was evident that the noes had a substan tial majority, and the result was greeted by loud yells and applause. What do you suppose the afore said Newton then did? Announce the result? Not on your sweet life. He simply ignored it and made another speech warning the dele gates that the time was short—that the convention had to vacate the the ater by 4 o’clock, and appealing for the adoption of the gag rule, follow ing which he called to the faithful to stand up again, and they stood, and the noes then had their inning, but the call of the roll was de manded, and it required a vote of one-fifth of the members to effect that purpose. It was evident that more than one fifth of the delegates stood up in favor of a call of the roll, but the conspirators had their own tellers, so that, after considerable delay and figuring, the chairman ruled that the call was lost by 2 votes, which was greeted with derisive laughter. Delegates from the state-at-large had been “picked” by the Triumvir ate, who selected themselves, and one other, for those positions, not by a r.'3-ular vote of the delegates but by a resolution, while the dis trict delegates, 12 in number, had, been chosen by the delegates from tho congressional districts, but the conspirators feared that if these delegates were permitted to go to i the national conventon uninstruct td, there was danger of the olectiov of Clark Howell, although he wa not a candidate, over Jack Cohen, and there was a possibility, if not a probability of such a 'enouement - This was not a representative democratic convention, in that the people who carried Georgia for Mc- Adoo by such a splendid ma : ority had no voice in naming the elagates to it, all of whom v/ere pick? 1 by Bell, Hamillo'. ,t*id Tandolph two nights following the primary, behind locked doors of a private room of the Kimball House, and without consulting the voters of a single county. That was not democratic, but vilely autocratic, and any man who says to the contrary is either a knave, or a fool. In the abstract, this Triumvirate did not exceed their authority, nor did the asses on the State Democrat ic Executive Committee who clothed them with it, ever dream that it would be so outrageously exercised. But it is gratifying to the sup porters of McAdoo to know that this resolution was not offered by one of his friends on that committee, but by a supporter of Underwood, who, probably, did not dream that it would bring about such a situa tion as resulted from it, and now feels like hiring some one to kick him. All tha member« of tills Trium virate were men of very little ex perience in political affairs, and were, practically, unknown to 900 per cent of the people of this state when chosen to manage McAdoo’s campaign, and, therefore, were not nropcrly equipped by acquaintance ship with the people in the one hun dred and sixty counties, to lock themselves up in a private room in the Kimball House, with telephone communication cut off, and make proper and judicious selection of convention delegates, and the large number of republicans, and men un known in the counties from which they were chosen, demonstrates that fact. This Triumvirate assumed abso lute authority to control every dele gate to the convention, and to dic tate what questions should be voted upon by them, upon the idea that they were their creators, and the creator is greater than the created. Through their influence and con trol, they induced the convention to do avery dangerous thing, and, we fear aharmful onu, by the adoption of a resolution instructing the dele gates to the New York conevention to “vote for McAdoo until he is nom inated,” instead of instructing them to vote for him so long as his name is before the convention. That resolution, if obeyed, may place the Georgia delegates in a very embarrassing position, because, in the event Mr. McAdoo sees that there is no possibility of his receiv ing the nomination, and withdraws his name, the Georgia delegates cannot participate in the nomination of any candidate for the presidency, but must continue to sit and vote alone for McAdoo to the end. We are exceedingly anxious for McAdoo to get the nomination, be cause we have full faith in his abil ity, fitness and integrity, and be lieve that he is the strongest and most popular candidate that could be named, and one that the people would elect, but this attitude of his Georgia representatives may in fluence uninstructed delegates from other states not to go to his sup port, as it appears rather dictatorial, than otherwise, and may be openly and effectively resented. The most harmful and dangerous thing this Triumvirate did, however, was to enter into a compact with the Klu Klux Klan whereby a per cent age of the delegates to the conven tion from the several counties of the state were to be, and actually were hand picked from that organization, and then to publish a letter from Mr. McAfee, dated April 18th. in which he put his stamp of approval upon what his campaign managers in Georgia had done. We have no idea that Mr. McAdoo had been informed, of the dirty methods adopted by these managers when he gave them that o. k., nor that he would not have indignantly rebuked such infamous conduct, had he known of it, but be that as it may, he has*been put upon the de fensive, and certainly defe;#ted for the nomination, unless he enters the convention by a two-thirds majority, of which we have very little hope. memorial services. There will be an all day service at Pleasant Grove the first Sunday, May 4th. Memorial service and preaching in the morning and singing in the afternoon. We are expecting some good singers.

LEDFORD, Atty., Buford, Ga oideache Backache "I have been taking Car dui,” says Mrs. Lillie Bolton, of Lake Providence, La. “I got down in bad health and lost in weight until I only weighed 120 pounds. I had bad pains in my sides and back and rny legs hurt me until I couldn’t walk. I stayed in bed half the time. I tried all kinds of medicine, but it did me no good. Finally I tried The Women’s Tonic “It seems like it did me good from the very first. After I had taken half & bottle I no ticed an improvement. I con tinued its use and I got bet ter and better. The pains in my legs and sides disap peared and 1 began to gain in weight until now I weigh 155 pounds and feel better than I ever did in my life. I am perfectly well and strong. I have given it to my girls, too.” Cardui has relieved many kinds of pains and distress ing symptoms caused by fe male trouble. It should help you, too, in the same way. Why not give it a fair trial ? E 103 Better Understanding el Intermediate Credit Banks IV ill Be Urged at Augusta Meet. Atlanta, Ga.. April 21. The te-r --gia Bankers’ i ••ivvatioa in Augu-dp I'.- I t half of tins L « tl u-.r.ure ! >n its program far SatttnW the ib i?ct of agricultural credits and nmm this day’s deliberations •. t cat g >d is expected to follow for the entire state. The speaker of the day will he Hon. R. A. Cooper, commissioner of the farm loan board, Washington, D. C., and Howard C. Arnold, secretary. Federal Land Bank and of the Inter mediate Credit Bank at Columbia. S. C., having jurisdiction over Georgia. The administration of the Interme diate Credit banks as well as the Fed eral Land bank is vested in the fed eral farm loan board of which Gover nor Cooper is the head. The Inter mediate Credit bank was created by the agricultural credit act of 1923 and .ery little advantage has been derived from its facilities so far by the banks of Georgia, it is stated. The respon sibility for this condition, is is as serted, is not laid at the door of the officials either in Columbia or in Washington, but is rather due, it is claimed, to the Intermediate Credit banks being a new and untried agency through which the government stands ready to come to the aid of the far mer. Better Understanding Sought. By devoting an entire day of the Georgia Bankers’ Convention to this discussion, it is sought to give the banks of the state a better under standing of the functions of the Inter mediate Credit banks. These banks are eligible to discount agricultural >aper for co-operative marketing as sociations and for commercial banks. In the matter of maturities there is a wide latitude ranging from six months to three years. With these conditions thoroughly understood by the banks of the state, it is believed that a large amount of paper will be found, the proceeds of which have been used for agricultur al purposes and which the Immediate Credit bank will gladly handle. If the deliberations at Augusta should confirm this view, as was pointed out here today by Atlanta bankers, it will bring great relief to the entstire state because in almost every county, it was stated,, the need exists for new money to make the 1924 crops and that need can be more fully supplied, it was thought, by en listing the help of the Intermediate Credit bank at Columbia.
