About Holding Crop
LOUISVILLE. Ky.—Walter A.
Newntan. a farmer on the Poplar
Level road, was enjoined by
Judge Kirby from disposing of
any crops on the farm during
pendency of an action for divorce
and alimony filed by Elva New

molesting his wife or annoying her
in any manner.
Mrs. Newman said the farm was
worth SIO,OOO. and the crops ap
proximately $2,000. She asked
that she be awarded SIOO a month

GEORGIA HELPED
MATERIALLY BY
ADMINISTRATION
Charles J. Haden, Democratic fi
nancial chairman for Georgia, has
sent out the following letter, with
an enclosure stating the benefits ac
cruing under two Democratic admin
istrations, to individuals and firms
supposed to have participated in
“war profits,” with the statement,
made to the press, that he could not
help being surprised at the “lack of
gratitude” shown by some people
and some communities to the Demo
cratic party:
“May we ask that you read the
enclosed. If you believe the state
ments in substance are correct, the
people of Georgia owe a debt of
gratitude to Democracy.
“May we ask that you share, in
some measure, your prosperity with
the party. There are sections of
America where the result of the elec
tion is not a serious matter, but to
Georgia the success of Democracy is
vital.
“Yours very truly,
“NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC COM
MITTEE.”
The statement inclosed with this
letter follows:
“GEORGIA AND NATIONAL DE
MOCRACY:
“A Democratic administration
spent in Georgia during the war,
through Camps Gordon, Oglethorpe,
Wheeler, Hancock, Benning and Mc-
Pherson, and industrial plants at
Brunswick, the aviation field in
Americus, and otherwise enormous
sums which money found its way
into the hands of Georgia merchants,
manufacturers, workmen, farmers,
bankers and everybody throughout
the state. Georgia was a very decid
ed favorite in this field of federal
patronage.
“Under a Democratic administra
tion of seven years the taxful wealth
of Georgia was increased at the rate
of $200,000 a day, being 65 per cent
enhancement, or a total increase of
over $500,000,000. This was baout as
much as the people of the state lost
by the abolition of slavery.
“The people of Georgia sought the
Federal Reserve bank most zealously,
spent money and energy unsparingly
in a campaign to get it, and is in
debted to the Democratic administra
tion for it.
“In common with other states.
Georgia shares in prosperity and in
the world-wide prestige which Amer
ica now enjoys, and in the highest
prices ever paid for products and
labor. Under Democracy the ’price
of cotton was raised from eight cents
a pound to forty-five cents a pounl
and extravagance in both country
and town became a by word.”

Enfeebled President ’sPlea
For League Most Touching
Episode of the Campaign
Tha Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER
WASHINGTON. Oct. 28.—Beyond
what the president said to the dele
gation of pro-league Republicans who
came to the White House to tell him
that they put “patriotism above par
ty in the present critical hour,” is
the story of the physical appearance
of Woodrow Wilson, revealing to the
little group privileged to see him,
how sick Mr. Wilson is and has been.
Leaving the White House, the del
egation issued a statement that be
tween the lines records the surprise,
even shock, experienced by these call
ers who had not seen the president
sinco he became ill more than a year
ago.
The statement, given by men and
women who are ordinarily Republic
ans, is in itself a shaded down pen
picture of the physical feebleness of
the president. It declares that it is
nothing less than tragic “that the
great president of the United States
should have been brought to such a
stricken physical condition as a result
of his indefatigable labor for t.ie
country and for humanity.
One of these visitors, plainly dis
tressed that the strain of the League
of Nations light and other otficial
cares had undermined the health of
the president, described his appear
□.nee as ‘‘iiatiiotic.
Mentally the president was alert,
vigorous, forceful and even aggies
sive All were agreed as to that.
Physically, Mr. Wilson’s appearance
is said to have been that of a hian
who has aged much in a year, whose
hair has grown much winter wnose
voice has lost the resonance of that
of the Wilson the country once knew,
and whose bodily infirmities have
borne down heavily upon a combative
will and one time sturdy frame.
Shows Deep Emotion
The president sat in a wheel
chair while addressing the «epub
lican men and women who are go
ine to support the League of Na
Lions He exhibited plainly his emo
tion when he reached passages n
his address wherein he iin r ® fe „ r s e - t he
the horrors of war, such as the
mothers and sisters and wives of
the country know the sacrifice of
delegation said the president
was “voicing the profoundest emo
tioim of his heart.
Despite the vigor of his written
words, the presidents voice was
said .to have ben quite low, barelj
filling the four walls of the small
room in which he was seated. This,
with his grayer hairs and general
appearance of care and long suf
fering and confinement, lett a vivid
picture on the minds of the small
audience. They marveled at the will
of the man in the wheel-chair, yet
recorded sympathetically in their
hearts an understanding of the
tragedy it was theirs to see.
Once Mr. Wilson paused in his
reading and waited a bit before re
suming. The pause was attributed
not only to the emotion he felt, but
to weariness of voice. It may not
have been as long as it seemed, but
to the men and women who were un
prepared for the revelation of the
effect of the president’s illness, this
moment of pause was possibly the
most solemn and touching of this
remarkable conference in the name,
of the peace covenant.
Probably Einal Appeal
It is doubted if the president will
issue a further statement before
the campaign ends. In its dramatic
setting, the White House confer
ence may well constitute the final
appeal for the peace covenant and
approval of what the president en
deavored to do for the world at
Versailles.
Mr. Wilson received a delegation
which said it comprised men and
women "who were ready to put pa
triotism above party in the present
critical hour." He spoke and they
heard, not as partisans but as be
lievers in the principle of the league,
with their faces set toward the hope
of world peace. The president met
them in the historic blue room, and
though the room is small and the
auditors were few, Mr. Wilson vir
tually spoke to the entire nation
when he addressed —from a wheel
chair—this little group of pro-league
Republicans.
Certainly, the president will not
deliver another speech before the
campaign closes. In his letter to Na
tional Committeeman Costello, of the
District of Columbia, Mr. Wilson
said he was not able to address a
mass meeting here and that it would
be "unwise” should he attempt it.
Those ■who saw the president prob-,
ably sensed fully what, the president
meant when he said this and appre-
ciated his own realization of his
physical limitations. The appeal Mr.
Wilson made was the appeal of a
sick man, an executive worn by the
cares of office and his long ’struggle
against odds to have America and
its senate accept his handiwork at
Paris.
This probable last appeal of the
president for the league was devot
ed exclusively to that issue, with a
brief resume of the events that
brought America into the world war.
Mr. Wilson did not mention the Dem
ocratic standard bearers. His only
reference to the campaign came near
the close of his address wffen he
declared that “this choice is the su
preme choice of the present cam
paign; it is regrettable that this
choice should be associated with a
party contest.”
Flash of Wilson
The “Americanism” issue, Mr.
Wilson said, was a false issue .in
jected fop partisan purposes. That
portion of his speech was reflective
of the president -when in his physical
prime, of Wilson on the stump, giv
ing blow for blow with a political
adversary.
"The so-called Americanism which
we hear so much prating about now,"
he said, "is spurious and invented for
party purposes only.”
That President Wilson still regards
article ten as the "heart of the cove
nant,” was shown when he devoted a
considerable part of his address to
an exposition of the meaning of that
article.
“It is the specific pledge,” he said,
‘ of the members of the league that
they will unite to resist exactly the
things which Germany attempted, no
matter who attempts them in the fu
ture. It is as exact a definition as
could be given in general terms of
the outrage which Germany would
have committed if it could.”
No one who has opposed the league
covenant. President Wilson said, has
proposed any other adequate means
of bringing about settled peace in
the world.
Taken altogether, the president’s
speech of Wednesday was a moving
and dramatic episode in national pol
itics and the prolonged controversy
over the League of Nations. Deliver
ed virtually in a sick room; heard
by men and women generally of an
opposite political party; its vibrant
expressiveness typical of Wilson,
well, though spoken by Wilson, sick;
followed by a statement of those who
saw the president—that is in itself a
tragic diagnosis of the president’s
enfeebled appearance—the address
will always be among the most mem
orable ever by any execu
tive soon to pass from the stags of
public life.
During a lull in the White House
ceremony—for the impressive event
was almost a ceremony—it is said
that President Wilson turned to The
odore Marburg, of Baltimore, one of
the delegation, and in a low tone told
M’’. Marburg that his letter declin
ing the appointment on the shipping
board was “an unwelcome letter.”
Mr. Marburg is said to have express
ed further regret that he could not
serve.
Outside of this, the gathering was
devoted to the remarks of Mr. Holt,
who presented the delegation, and
the probable final plea of the presi
dent for the league covenant deliv
ered less than a week before the na
tion undertakes its "great and sol
emn referendum” on this great issue
of national and international import.
Mrs. W. R. Dougherty,
Named in Vincent Case,
Is Granted Divorce
Mrs. Wilhelmina R. Dougherty,
formerly of 19 Prado, who was prom
inently mentioned during the trial of
Raj; E. Vincent, bogus army major,
in the federal court a few days ago.
was granted a divorce from Daniel
O. Dougherty, a well known Atlantian,
Thursday morning in the superior
court.
Mrs. Dougherty claimed that her
husband was cruel to her and their
two children. She alleged that de
spite the fact that he owned proper
ty valued at $60,000. had a touring
car, lived in a SIO,OOO home and had
an income of SSOO a month, he re
fused to employ a servant and made
her walk to save carfare. She fur
ther stated that he refused to ask
blessing at the table and continually
nagged at her.
Mr. Dougherty did not appear to
contest his wife’s petition for a di
vorce, but in an answer filed some
time ago he alleged his -wife became
too friendly with Ray E. Vincent
while Mr. Dougherty was in France
as a Y. M. C. A. secretary, and gave
Vincent his automobile, watch and
revolver. He further stated in his
answer that his wife squandered over
$3,000 on Vincent.
Vincent was tried in the federal
court on a charge of impersonating
an army officer and was sentenced
to eighteen months in the federal
penitentiary.
At the divorce hearing Thursday
Mrs. Dougherty was represented by
Attorneys Key, McClelland & McClel
land.

SOUTH’S
HEALTHY, RESERVE
BANK REVIEW SAYS
Business and agricultural condi
tions throughout the territory of the
sixth federal reserve district, em
bracing the states of Georgia, Ala
bama. Florida, Louisiana. Mississippi
and Tennessee are healthy, though
not booming, according to the month
ly business review of the Atlanta
Federal Reserve bank. It is obvious
from the report that the bottom has
not dropped out of business, as pes
simists would have the public be
lieve. On the contrary, retail and
wholesale commerce has held ,and is
holding, up remarkably well during
the transitory period incident to re
adjustments and new price levels.
As usual, the monthly report of
the bank deals analytically with con
ditions respecting every stable com
modity, including farm products, and
the figures it cites justify the en
couraging view that bankers and
business men take of the situation,
as was reflected in their interviews
published in The Atlanta Journal
last Sunday.
In the line of retail business, the
report shows that during the month
of September the department stores
throughout the sixth district did a
business 12.6 per cent greater than
during the same month of 1919. And,
more significant still, their business
from July 1 to September 30, show
ed an increase of 16.9 per cent over
the corresponding period of 1919.
Wholesale Grocery Trade
“Reports from wholesale estab
lishments vary in regard to sales
during September, 1920, as compared
to the previous months, and to Sep
tember, 1919,” says the bank bulle
tin. “While in Georgia, wholesale
grocery firms report an average, in
crease in sales of 47.5 per cent in
September over August, and in Mis
sissippi an increase of 3.4 per cent?
reports from other states show de
creases which bring the net increase
for the district down to 1.9 per cent.
In dry goods all states show a de
crease, the average for the district
being 22.9 per cent. A net Increase
for the district in jhardware is shown
at 1.4 per cent, and in shoes of 4.6
per cent.”
The hardware business in the dis
trict showed a slight increase—. 9 per
cent—but groceries, dry goods and
shoes registered net average decreas
es of 5.9, 9.4 and 15.9 per cents, re
spectively.
The condition of the cotton crop,
September 25, for the district was
52.1 per cent as compared to 40.5
per cent last year, shown by states,
as follows:
1920 1919
Alabama 49 ....
Floridaso 35
Georgia 51 54
Louisiana 47 38
Mississippi ..50 52

gia, the bank estimates, will be 1,-
532,000 bales—an average of 149
pounds to the acre planted.
Concerning the crop in Georgia,
the bulletin says: *
"Cotton has opened very rapidly in
Georgia, and with continued favor
able weather, and sufficient labor,
picking will be over by the last of
the month. There is practically no
top crop, and all under-matured bolls
have been affected by the weevil and
will not open. A condition of 51 per
cent of normal indicates a yield of
149 pounds to the acre, and a pro
duction of 1,532,000 bales for the
state.”
Georgia Ginning Behind
Georgia, it appears from the re
port, is far behind her 1919 record
in the matter of cotton ginning, al
though the total amount for the cot
ton belt exceeds the record of 1919
as of date of September S 5, as fol

“The world’s production of com
mercial .cotton, exclusive of linters,
grown in 1919,’ was approximately
19,620,000 bales, of 500 pounds net,”
says the bulletin, "while the con
sumption of cotton (exclusive of lin
ters in the United States) for the
year ending July 31, 1919, was ap
proximately 18,181,000 bales of 500
pounds net. The total number of
producing cotton spindles, both ac
tive and idle, is about 150,000,000.”
The, lumber market, according to
the bank, is being influenced by the
uncertainty in regard to commodity
prices, and "u:.-H the transition of
prices from higher to lower levels is
completed the outlook for a revival
of activity is not bright.”

Jeffersonville Women
Register to Vote
JEFFERSONVILLE. Ga„ Oct. 28.
Thirty-five Jefersonville women had
registered for the ballot up to Wed
nesday, twelve having registered last
week. Not many of these being
women from rural sections, showing
a seeming reluctanve to take ad
vantage of nineteenth amendment.
The registration has been due
largely to the fact that an election
for bonds to build a new high school,
in consolidated districts of Jeffer
sonville, Oak Dale and Faulk’s school,
has been called.
Opinion is divided as to whether
they can vote or not, but the women
being especially interested in this
are practicing preparedness. The
president of the Home and School
association. Mrs. W. R. Carswell,
has taken an active part in the cam
paign as well as each member of the
association.

First Carolina Women
To Vote Give No Heed
To ‘Triend Husband”
GREENVILLE, S. C„ Oct. 27—" Our
husbands have absolutely nothing to
do with our politics. We are agreed
upon this point. All of my close
friends have told me that they have
not discussed this election with their
husbands. We are voting just as we
want to vote.” So declared Mrs. John
M. Phillips, leader of a society of
enfranchised women, as the women
crowded the men away from the polls
Tuesday in West Greenville to cast
ballots for the first time in the his
tory of the state.
They were voting for a mayor and
six aidermen. Ladies of fashion and
workers in stores and mills were very
emphatic in saying that their hus
bands not only did not know how they
intended to vote, but that "friend
husband" wasn’t going to find out.
They went through the formality of
casting their first ballots in a quiet,
business-like manner. There was a
conspicuous absence of the boister
ous talking and joking that has been
since time immemorial* part of the
ceremony attending man’s exercise of
the franchise. Grandmothers and
debutantes voted together and nei
ther confided to the other their
choice of candidates. The electors in
cluded one woman over ninety and
several who had just turned 21.
One woman said she voted for one
candidate because of his educational
platform and another lady admitted
that the principal reason for voting
for a certain candidate was that she
was convinced that he would vigor
ously prosecute the blind tigers.
West Greenville once had a bad repu
tation. No negro men or women qual
ified for this election.

PETITION FOR
HIGHER EXPRESS
RATES IS HEARD
The ra’lroad commission on Thurs
day heard the petition of the Amer
ican Railway Express company for an
increase of 13 1-2 per cent in its ex
press rates throughout ’he state.
This is the percentage of increase
granted by the interstate commerce
commission ?ome weeks ago on inter
state express rates The transporta
tion act of congress requires state
express rates to to be in line with
interstate rales. There was no oppo
sition to the granting of the peti
tion. Robert C. Alston, general coun
sel for the compayn, told the com
mission that tlie other southern
states had already granted similar
increases.
The commission also heard Thurs
day morning petitions for increased
rates by the Mcßae-Helena Telephone
company for its exchanges at Alamo
and Chauncey; the Rhine Telephone
company for its exchange at Rhine,
and the Glennwood Telephone com
pany for its exchange at Glenn
wood.
The commission heard a petition by
the Savannah and Atlanta railroad
to discontinue operating mixed trains
two a day each way, between Savan
nah and Camak, and to operate in
lieu thereof one passenger train a
day each way, and one freight train
a day each way. There was oppo
sition to this petition from' shippers
of Waynesboro and Sardis.
The commission heard a petition
by citizens of Farrar, on the Cen
tral of Georgia, between Macon and
Madison, for establishment of a
freight and passenger depot. They
claimed that Farrar is a flourish
ing town of 125 inhabitants and needs
a depot. They were represented by

Labor Federation Has
No “Cox for President”
Fund, Says Secretary
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.—Enemies
of labor are trying to conceal under a
cloud of “misstatement and irrele
vancies” the true aim of non-partisan
political campaign conducted by the
American Federation of Labor. Sec
retary Frank Morrison said Thurs
day.
Morrison denied that the federa
tion has called upon state federations
to set aside “Cox for president” funds
or that the federation had sent out
large sums for campaign purposes.
Morrison branded as false statements
that $150,000 had been sent to Kan
sas.
“The work of the federation’s non
partisan political campaign commit
tee has been limited to the publish
ing of literature, to the work of or
ganization and to the routing of some
speakers,” Morrison said, declaring
the cost of this was represented by
•«i decidedly modest sum. x

Mr. Dodson, the “Liver

Treachery of Calomel
Calomel loses you a day! You know
what calomel is. It’s mercury; quick-*
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never
be put into your system.
When you seer oinous, slugging
constipated and all knock«a» odt ana
believe you need a dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for a few cents a
large bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone,
which is entirely vegetable and pleas
ant to take and is a perfect substi
tute for calomel. It is guaranteed
to start your liver without stirring
you up inside, and can not salivate.
Don’t take calomel! It can not be
trusted any mord than a leopard or
a wild-cat. Take Dodson’s Livpr
Tone which straightens you right Up
and makes you’ feel fine. Give it
to the children because it is perfect
ly harmless and doesn’t gripe.
