REPUBLICAN FRAUDS The republicans are depending oa fraud and trickery to carry the election for Me. Taft. In the first place, the Trusts have been requests ed, as their contribution to republi can success to put all their men to work, so as to look like a return of prosperity, and as soon as the elec tion is over, many of these men are to be put off to loaf again., Fraud the second, Mr. Chas. P, Taft has purchased the Baltimore Sun, an oid Democratic paper, and is now, of covrse, supporting his brother with it as a bolting Democratic pa per, when it is siniply a change of ownership. The Republicans know that the honest Americans are go ing to to elect that great statesman from N.braska, and they are resort. ing to fraud, coercion and trickery to prevent it, but this 1s a democrat ic year from Dan to Beersheba.

Raising Pickles is a Profitahle : Occupation for Women If she lives in the country, and has even an acre of ground at her disposal, a woman can make money raising cucumbers and making pick les. As soon as the vines begin to bear, go over them carefully every day and pick all that are large enough for pickles, put them in cold ;w-xter, and wash them when putting them down. The water that drips from them Is all thot is needed for the brine; more will make them soft Sixteen-or twenty-gallon kegs are the best for putting them down. Sprinkle salt thickly on the bottom then put in a large layer of salt, and so on. Trim the head of the keg just enouvgh for it to slip in and out easily, place it on the cucumbers, and put a weight on it. Tack a cloth on the keg’and keep in a cool place. If in two or three days the pickles are not well covered with brine, use mcre salt. Let them stand in the brine a month at least, then take out as many as can be packed up in a day. Put them to svak in plenty of water, changing it once a day until the salt is nearly all out; they will not be good if too fresh. Then take out and let drain while preparing the pickle. Put to heat, in porcelain kettles, two quarts of vinegar and two teacupfuls of sugar for each gal lon of pickles; add cayenne pepper and spice to taste. Use the whole spices and tie up in small bags. When the vinegar comes to the boil ing- point, take out spices and' put in the pickles. Let scald for thirty ‘minutes and seal up in pint jars; also seal up a dozen or so small bottles for samples. Use pure cider vinegar and buy it by the barrel After sealing let the pickles stand two weeks, then take the samples and leave at private residences in your neatest town. In a few days go around and take orders. . Itis no more beneath a woman’s dignity to take orders for pickles than it 1s to take orders for books, and they are | in much greater demand.—NEgw Ipea Woman’s MacaziNe far No-‘ vember, b FOLKSTON, GA THURSDAY, OCTOBER -29, 1908. Election Next Tuesday On next Tuesday, Nov. 3rd, Georgia will hold an election to votes for Presidential electors, Con gressmen and to pass on an amend ment to the state constiwution pro viding for Confederate Veterans and their widows, The amend ment. which we published in fuil last week, is not supposed to in creass taxes, as the mortality tables would indicate a decrease in num bers by the time the bill could be put into effect, sufficient to offset those who are not now on the pen sion roll, Aside from our duty to support the democratic ticket next Tuesday, every democrat should go to the polls next Tuesday and cast his ballot for the amendment to place all wocthy ex-confederate sol diers and ex-confederate soldiers’ widows, who are not now drawing a pension, and who are not worth wmore than SISOO, on the pay roil. Come out and cast your ballot for a worthy cause, S To ExTrACT A SPLINTER When a splinter has been driven deep into the hand, it can be ex tracted without pain by steam Nearly fill a wide mouthed bottle with hot water, place the injured part over the mouth of the botile, and press tightly The suction will draw the flesh down, and in 2 min ute ot two the steam will extricate the splinter and the inflammation will disappear.—NoveEMßEß Woum.

After hard work, sacrifices, and overcom ing almost insurmountal le obstables the county voted $300,000 bonds for good roads. Splendid pikes be- ‘ gan to radiate out from Jackson. | - Many farmers opposed that mcve ment. They said it was useless bur dening of people already groaningj under taxes. One man fought it so bitterly that it became necessary to condemd his property for road pur-i poses. His lands were not vulucd% higher than $8 to 10 an acre be fore the road came. He was so in censed that he sacrificed his pr()])cr-j ty and moved away. The pike wasl built, and that same land can not be purchased for $25 an acre now. ‘ Madison county found that S3OO - 000 would not complete the roads, l A second bond issue of $200,000 was proposed. It carried without trouble. Men who had bitterly op posed the first bond issuc voted eag erly for the second. It had paid. That is the difficulty, it is found, in all good road movements. Farm ers are unwilliag to be taxed for such purposes, because they do not real ize to the fullest how fine roads through their property means a sav-‘ ing in many ways, and is almost in-i variably followed by increased value of farm lands, WoMmaN'S HoME CoMPANION AT A - New Price The increase in the price of paper 'has been a factor in forcing another ’one of our magazines to increase in price. The WOMAN’:;(IIOME CoM PANION, preparing to give its read ers a bigger and better magazine, will raise its price from 10 cents to 15 cents a copy, and from SI.OO to $1.25 a year in a few weeks. This advance is in part due to the increased size and value of the mag azine, and in part to the increased price of paper, which is affecting every publisher 1n she United States, ““Aim high” is a noble aspiration, but the trouble is that most of us are so all fired near-sighted. SUPERIOR COURT l Promptly at ten o’clock last Tues. day morning Judge T. A. Parker Icalled the October term of Supericr Court. The session was opened with prayer by Rev. G. L. Jones, pastor of the Folkston Baptist church. The Grand Jury was then sworn in and Mr. J. 8. Mizell was 'chosen as its foreman. Judge Park er, in his charge to the jury, sawd he did not intend to make a lengthy talk as he was sufferirg from a se vere cold and did not feel physical ly able to say much. - In his talk, which lasted about fifty minutes, he advanced some forcible ideas’ in re gards to gambling, pistol carrying etc,, laying particular stress on the enforcement of the law in all such violations of the law. The Judge touk occasion more than once to refer to the Graad Jury in a com plimentary manner on its maturity (there being no real young men on it ) and dwelt several minutes upon the merits and advautages of good roads in the county, saying that one can judge of the progressiveness of a county or community by simply driving over the roads. He remind ed us that it has been learned that the farmers’ loss 1s $50,000,000 per annum ou account of*bad roads. After the call of the cocket court adjourned until one o’clock, 1 : “The time of the Court was taken up mainly with the civil business, ‘ there being several pleas entered in which nominal fines were assessed, The case which atttacted most in terest was the total divorce of Annie Mae Moore who asked the Coutt to annul hei arriag,‘contract, which: w;as' entered into ’moigs_ han a ~‘ Jane Alexandria, (éd?’i‘” who “was Savings Department The Atlantic National Bank, Jacksonville, Florida.
