COMFORT, Supt- Official Off •» Gwiaaett Cottmty, City of I ■■HlWffll* U. S. Court, Nortkera DU t net of Georgia. Entered at the Post Office at Law renceville, Georgia, *s Second Claaa Mail Matter, under the act of Con gress of March 3rd, 187 V. DAVIS AND BRYAN The uomnation of Davii, for president, and Gov. Bryan, for vice president, by the national democrat ic convention, has healed ali fac tional differences that grew out of the strenous and protracted strug gle at New Yoik, and the party has entered the contest with unbroken ranks and an enthusiasm that pre sages a splendid victory for it at the November election. After the convention had been deadlocked for nearly two weeks, during which the representatives of McAdoo, .Smith, the “favorite sons” and dark horses were fighting each other with tiger like ferocity, and it looked like no nomination would he made, the republican leaders were very much elated over the situation, and considerably more hopeful of victory going their way, but the harmony and enthusiasm brought about by the naming of Davis and Bryan has created consternation in ' heir rums All the New York newspapers, both democratic and republican, were intensely hostile to McAdoo, and some of them started a story immediately following adjournment ol the convention to the effect that he *as contemplating running at an independent progressive democrat, a la Lalollette. But he issued a signed sJUiwient promptly in which he <ie- t'lured hi* intention to take the Kluin|i;far (the nominees upon his re turn t'uini Europe, by the Ist of i-i-pt ember, un/i William Jennings Bryan, his most powerful leader on the floor of the conventon, express ed a similar intention, so that there vyil! be only one democratic ticket, whereas the republicans have two — Cooledge and LaFoiiette. Latfoliotte will probably carry two or three of the smaller sure re puhbjfsm states ui the fur west and so divide the votes oi that party in » i.umber of other und larger re publican states of the middle west that have heretofore been strongly nartfh urrd in the column of the g. o. ja.ho ,/mike them “safe for democ racy" ;and .thereby make sure the electuuii of iJduvrs and Bryan. It wus ttie bolt of Theodore Roosevelt that elected Woodrow Wilson in’ his first race, and that of LaKoliette will most probably have the same effect this year. "Uooledge is a good cleun man, of only fair ability, and has nothing magnetic in his personality that at frahts wrt n'h-rtvi draws them to him, nor the nerve to Ifiipfct recalcitrant X publican member* oi congress and drive them to stand by the policies vJf his administration, and therein les his greatest weakness. The farmers of the country, and particularly those of the great ag ricultural territory of the west, have been vigorously demanding legislat ive relief for several years, und although both houses of congress are strongly republican, President <holedge has not had sufficient lact, or influence to formulate, or put through any measure for that purpose. While all this deluy has been go ing on, thousands of western farm ers were bankrupted, and over twelve hundred nationul hanks were furred to the wall, which ruined thousands of depositors. The southern cotton farmers huve also lost many millions for the lack <if a market for their cotton, which they can never get until an inter national court has bee.t established through which German manufactur ers cun open up their great plants that were left intact at the close of the European war, and enter the market for that staple. England consume* only a little over 2,000,(100 hale* of Ann rican ■cotton, wherea*, before the war, Germany annually purchased slight ly over 4,000,000 and it 1* the law 4)i supply and demand that fixe ; , the jtricea on all things. The* republican purty has done ab solutely nothing to help the great l>otiy of American people. It main tains an outrageously high tariff tax that robs the general public of billions, every dollar of which is paid by the consumers, and goes in to the pockets of predatory wealth. It has always stood by the big in terests at tin* expense of the general public, and the people feel outraged over the situation in economic af fairs, to say nothing of the scandal ous robbery of the national treasury by thievish republican officials who arc running the national govern ment, and they are determined to have a change. HARRIS AND HARDWICK. Little Thomas William Hardwick iit a candidate for the senate. ' We won't say that he is running j f„r Senator Hams’ job, because he j isn’t. He is just simply a candidate. Of course, there are some people j | somewhere who will vote for justi anybody regardless of rhyme or j reason, and probably some of that j tribe can be found in all the coun- 1 ties of this state, but we have not | happened up with any voter any-] where who expressed an intention to throw away a ballot for him and we j have been with a great many folks j from different sections of Georgia i since he announced his candidacy. In addtiion to that, the newspap- I ers are unanimously supporting | Harris, and ali of them have ex pressed the hope that he would be returned to the senate without op j position, because of the great and unblemished record he has made there, w'hich no man from this state has equalled, much less excel ed. Of course, Gov. Hardwick fully understands the situation, a' 1 has not the remotest idea, hope or ex pectation of winning. Why, you ask, did he bocem a candidate? The answer to that interrogatory is—SIMPLY FOR SPITE. The truth of that statement is ab solutely proven by the following re cital oi‘ facts, all of which are well known to the reading public: In some manner, Mr. Hardwick has been in high standing with the republican administration since his defeat for the senate. For two years he held a position in the department of justice, at Washington, under the Harding and Cooledge administrations, at a high salary. Only afew days before the ad journment of congress, President Cooledge nominated him for a high position, that had to be filled by a democrat, and he sent his name to the senate for confirmation. Senator W. J. Harris abjected t<* that, upon the ground that Hardwick was personally objectionable to him, and that ended the scheme. Up to that day Mr. Hardwick had never intimated to anybody that he had an idea of running for the senate, but he immediately re turned to Georgia, and Upon his ar lival at Atlanta wrote letters to 21 of his old political friend* to meet him at the Kimball House for a con sultation. When these committeemen met pursuant to that request, he expressed any intention or desire to become a candidate himself, but they were informed that the pur pose of the call was to get out a candidate for the senate against Harris and one for governor against Walker. What he and his committeemen did was to agree upon men they would be willing to support for senator and governor. For senator, they named Col. Rube Arnold, of Atlanta, and Judge R. B. Russell, and for governor, Dr. Hardeman, of Commerce,. All three of these gentlemen very promptly declined to become par ties to cuch a contemtibie scheme, and Hardwick was left high und dry alone. Of course, all these committee men, being close personal and polit ical friends of his, would have en dorsed his candidacy, had it been known that he desired to make the race, and no one expected him to do it, as he held the matter in abey ance until the last day and the last hour on which under the rule of the State Executive Committee, any candidate could enter his name as such, and pay the qualifying fee of $250. Gov. Hardwick has an exceeding ly high tempered and vindictive dis position, and made up his mind, in a moment of desperation, to make Senator Harris pay the expenses of a campaign to punish him for de featng the confirmation of Cool edge’s appointment. Of course, he hasn’t the ghost of a chance of an election, und does not expect to accomplish anything hut force Harris to pay something to gratify his personal spite to wards him, Senator Harris did right in de feating the confirmation of Hard wick, knowing that some good dem ocrat would ultimately be named for the position, and not one who fought Woodrow Wilson's administration, hobnobs with republican administra tions at Washington and pretends to he a dyed-in-the-wool democrat in Georgia. Georgians do not like any such Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde po litical scheme as Hardwick has been trying to put over them for several years and this furnishes an opportunity to indignantly repudi ate and crush it for good.

All fathers and mothers should be put on their guard by the death of the President’s son. The boy wore shoes, or sandals, with no stockings, as thousands of boys and girls do, every day in Summer. THAT IS MOST DANGEROUS. The earth, everywhere, is im pregnated with dangerous germs, including the germ of lockjaw, and innumerable other germs that may cause blood poisoning if a slight wound be neglected. The feet and especially the toes, are more easily infected than any other external part of the body. Cramped for generations in ihoes, deprived of their natural blood supply, very often the toes lose their power of resistance to germ attack. Constantly you read it Wood poisoning that starts in the foot. Wearing shoes without stock ngs, neglecting a cut or blister, as children often do, any germs ac cumulated are persistently and con tinuously rubbed into the tissues and into the blood circulation, with no protecting stocking between the foot and the leathy. The pluckier the child the more probability of a neglected wound. And boyish courage, unfortunately, la no protection against germ at tack. “The Spring crop of pigs is short tiy 8,000,000 in the corn belt."
