IP, HOBSON MAKES
Santiago Hero Made Fine
Impression at Pine-
hurst, N. C.
Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson,
the Santiago hero and congressman
from the Sixth Alabama district, was
among the speakers at the Southern
Kducatlona! Congress at Plnehurst,
N. C.
Forty-four Georgians were In attend,
ance at the conference, and all wer6
.■harmed with Congressman Hobson's
ttpeech. In a personal letter to a mem
ber of The Georgian staff Houstoun
It. Harper, of Atlanta, writes as fol
lows:
"In hla able, thoughtful and brilliant
address before the Southern Educa
tional Conference, Captain Richmond
l’eorson Hobson demonstrated that he
lias grown and broadened remarkably
since the days Just after the Santiago
affair.
“After Indorsing the statement of Dr.
Knapp, one of the speakers before the
conference, that the Southern man was
a born politician, he proceeded to tell
the audience how to interest the con
gressmen and all other political office-
seekers In the great educational uplift.
He quoted statistics to snow that 87 per
tent of the population of the Southern
states lives on the farms. The South
ern farmer will attend a political meet
ing when you can not get him to at
tend any other kind of a meeting. H
la fond of politics.
An Educational Campaign.
“In hla own district Congressman
Hobson will begin on May 8 an educa
tional campaign for the farmers,
told his hearers that the national gov
ernment has a great educational reser
voir dammed up In Washington, which
Is just waiting to be tapped. On the
date mentioned ho expects to have a
soil expert, a good roads expert, a for
estry expert and an educational expert
who will make speeches In an eleven
days’ campaign ovor the district. They
will travel 380 miles In conveyance.).
Kaoli of the experts will be allowed
thirty minutes. A mile of model road
way will be constructed after tbe
spooking campaign la finished.
"It was asserted by Mr. Hobson that
any congressman could have papers on
'"durational topics printed In The Con
gressional Record, and sent to voters
"M over the South, and thus Interest
every voter and every politician In the
great educational work. He said that
speeches should he written out for all
candidates for political offices touching
"it some phase of the educational work
In the South, and that this would help
in the cause. No politician, lie de
clared, could Ignore saying something
on the subject of education.
In concluding his speech, Mr. Hob-
The cherished hopes for early farm
and garden produce, blackberries and
the like went glimmering Sunday night
when the wind, for the first time In ten
days, grew still and a heavy and killing
frost settled down over the land. The
frost was one of the heaviest ever re
corded in this section of the country at
this time of yeer. Bean vines, tomato
plants, cabbage plants, and, In fact,
every kind of garden vegetable which
had been coaxed Into early life by the
beautiful warm weather of March, fell
a victim to Its blighting effect, and
Monday morning dropped limp and life
less. And as a result Atlanta cltikens
will dine on vegetables Imported fron
the sunny clime of Florida for three
•weeks or more.
It Is estimated by those In position
to know that the farm and truck gar
den produce of Fulton county has been
given a setback from whiidi at least
three and possibly four weeks will be
required to recover. In speaking of the
effect 6f the killing frost on his crop of
vegetables Monday morning, Jack
Ream, a well-known truck farmer liv
ing on the Cheshire Bridge road, about
six miles from the city, said:
“The heavy frost Sunday night killed
all the fruit on my place, probably
destroyed all my blackberries and
blighted every vegetable In my garden.
The crop will be set back several weeks,
as everything Is "dead and will have to
be replanted."
In discussing the effect which the
killing frost had on the produce market
Nym "McCullough, of the Arm of Mc
Cullough Bros., on Broad street, said:
Truck Gardens Ruined.
“The damage done by the frost last
night will result in delaying the mar
keting of country vegetables for
least three or four weeks. It means
that every garden will have to be re
planted and that truck farmers will
have to begin all over again. I am of
the opinion that the recent cold weath
er would have done little damage had
the Sunday night frost been eliminated.
As It Is. everything Is dead. The warm
weather In March caused vegetables to
develop rapidly and the prospects for a
market at least three weeks earlier
than usual were most promising.
Since the frost has come the market
will be about three weeks later than
usual. I do not expect to see any home-
raised vegetables before the middle of
June. It means that Florida truckers
will get the benefit of our trade for a
longer period than has ever been the
case before.”
When asked If, In his opinion, the
cold weather and the consequent delay
In marketing produce would have the
effect of raising the price of vegetables,
Mr. McCullough said:
“I see no reason why this shoukl re
mit. When the crop Is marketed there
will, of course, be a plentiful supply . f
vegetables. The frost fell on all alike
and every truck farmer will get an even
start. I do not anticipate higher prices
as a result of the frost.”
Other produce dealers expressed
opinions similar to those of Mr. Mc
Cullough and the principal, effect of
the havoc wrought by the frost Is the
blighting of the hopes of vegetarians
for an earlier season than usual.

Chicago, April IS.—That the Church of

Many More Like It In Atlanta.
The following case Is but one ol
many similar occurring dally In At
lanta. It is an easy matter to verify
Its correctness. Surely you cannot
ask for better proof than such con-
elusive evidence:
C. F. Gross, of SS Decatur street,
the well-known bricklayer, says: “I
think a great deal of Doan's Kidney
Pills, which relieved me of a terrible
pain In my loins which had bothered
me for more than two years. After a
hard day's work, when at homo trying
to rest, I had a difficulty In getting up
from my chair If I wanted to move
about, and I bad to tako both hands
and pull myself up. I never knew
when I was going to feel a sharp pain
like the thrust of a knife In my back.
Sometimes It struck me In the knee,
or In some other part. My limbs would
swell up and become a quarter a*
large again as they were. At night
often pains coursed through my back
and awoke me up and I would lie there
afraid to mmo at all. It was a hard
proposition to turn over, and meant
a great deal of suffering. The secre
tions from the kidneys wero dark and
thick when allowed to stand. I could
not retnln them and had to drag my
self out of bed several'times during
the night. I could not get the rest
which I needed, and' was tired and
worn out all the time. Of course, 1
have used a great many remedies and
tried liniments and plasters, but noth
ing bad much effect until I got Doan'a
Kidney Pills of Brannen & Anthony’s
stores, 102 "Whitehall street and 30
Marietta street I think I arose feel
ing better the very next morning after
taking the first few pills, I ate my
breakfast, went to work and felt good
all day. I continued using the remedy
and In three days' time I was like a
new man. My back became strong
and I bad no pain whatever. I could
go to bed and rest all night, and get
up In the morning feeling bright and
refreshed. The kidneys began to work
regularly and tbe secretions were re
stored to a normal color and condi
tion. I never felt better In my Ufa
than I have since I used Doan’s Kid-!
ney Pills. Three boxes effected a 1
cure.”

son eloquently declared that the South
had furnished the great statesmen to
settle many of the great problems.of
the nation. He declared that the man
ufacturing and commercial aectlons of
the East and West were too busy mak
ing money to devote much time to these
subjects of statesmanship. The outlook
was that the South would continue to
take Us part In the great era opening
before the greatest nation on the face
of the globe.”
Washington, April 15.—Final ap
proval has been given to the propose!
general order changing the length of
the tour of duty of staff officers of the
army In the Philippines. Instead if
serving two years and a half away from
the United States they will have two
years’ actual service In the Islands.
This order 1s thoroughly approved by
the staff Itself, which has always felt
that It was being discriminated against
In having longer tours of duty In the
tropics than officers of the line.
The doctors who will go to the Islands
will sail from San Francisco June ;.
They Include: Major Henry S. Snyder,
now stationed at Fort Sam Houston:
Captain W. J. L. I.yster, at Fort MC'
Intosh, and Captain J. R. Wilson, a.
Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. Upon tho arrival
of these officers In the Islands the med
ical officers will be relieved from fur
ther duty there and ordered to this
country: Colonel Charles B. Byrne,
Majors F. J. Ives, W. P. Kendall. K. A.
Winter. A. M. Stark, Paul S. Hillock.
Henry C. Usher and John S. Kulp. and
Captains John D. Yost, Peter C. Field

have not yet definitely been decided.
JACKSON’S REPORT '
NOT SATISFACTORY
TO WASHINGTON
Special to The Georgian.
Washington, Ga.. April 15.—That por
tion of the report of Expert W. O.
Jackson, which pertained to the physi
cal condition of the Washington branch
of the Georgia railroad, seems not to
have been at all satisfying to the busi
ness men of Washington, and the citi
zens generally, who have been forced to
put up with a service between this city
and Barnett, Ga, that the claim
totally Inadequate and positively det
rimental to the business Interests of
the city and this terlrtnry.

vestigations of the Georgia railroad
properties and service, the Business
Association of Washington met ami
named a committee composed of T. M.
Fitzpatrick. W. T. Johnsim and Muyor
T. J. Barksdale to confer personally
.with the officials of the Georgia rail
road with a view to radical Improve
ments In the service and equipment of
the local branch. This committee grill
wait upon the proper officials of the
road In Augustn one ilpy this week and
In the event that they are not given
assurance of a speedy remedy to al
leged existing evils, the same commit
tee will appear before the railroad
commission of the stale In Washing
ton’s behalf.
According to Expert Jackson’s find
ings, the traffic on the Washington
branch has been very light and every
thing Is In splendid condition. It was
pointed out by one member of the
Business Association that the Washing
ton branch had handled during the past
season from eight to seventeen freight
ars on each trip dally end attempted
to maintain a passenger service with
the same train crew at the same (line.
