This is a romance of sunnv Geor gia even if Its climax did take place under the North Star instead of the Southern cross. It Is a romance of tinny Georgia because the Honorable Joseph Johnson (better known hereabouts as "Red- Headed Joe"» and Miss Hattie Maltby had the everlasting good fortune of being born and reared among the red hills of this old state, and they are Georgians and Atlantans through and through right now, even if thev have been living in New York for ten years more or less. But. the romance” Oh yes. It was like this Gets the New York Feve”. Joe Johnson used to be a reporter in Atlanta, and he was a rattling good one. too Then be got the hunch, or perhaps one should say. he became died with th» ambition to try news paper work In New York. So. along with several other Atlantans he made his way to the Rube Town and pro ceeded to make very, very good.

PROA’IDENCE, R I , June 1.- Speak- 1 er Champ Clark made a clean sweep in i Rhode Island of the ten delegates elect ed to the Democratic national conven tion. Every city and town in the state was carried by the speaker, and a ma jority of almost four to one was piled up over Governor Milson. Complete returns today say: Speaker Clark. 5.712; Governor Wil son. 1,530. Governor Harmon, 728. Th’ fight for national committeeman was the hottest in years It was won by ex-Mayor George W. Greene, of AVoonsocket. He .was re-elected, de feating Congressman George F. O'Shaughnessy by 5.524 to 4.391 < 'barges of corruption w ere made by both sides during the primaries, and Congre.'sman O'Shaughnessy was the center of a near-riot when he went to the ward room in M’ard No. 1 in Provi dence to protest. It was the first presidential prefer ence primary held in Rhode Island. Al though the -state provided no direct primarv prefe'ence lav. th’ Democrat ic state committee established prefer ential primaries. ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE HEAD AT COLLEGE PARK SUNDAY Dr. G. M*.

A battle royal between Thomas E. M atson ind, Thmn- V Hirdwmk to sucr<*ed. Senator Baqon in 'he Unit'<l State? senate, now looms large on the I political horiron in Georgia. In the event that Watson and Hard wick both are ' w hmh Ts gen.- erally Accepted as a condition . are to arise they will have to reckon stren- I uously with Senator Bacon, who does i not Intend to give up his toga without ast ruggl". Watson ha? let it be known to a few friends that he win certainly b“ in the race for the senate. Hardwick has said that he will certainly run if Wat son dots. Mi Bacon has said that h-_ will run again, no matter "ho els? runs. And H, H. Perry.' of Hall, and S. ; Guyt McLendon, of Fuljon. long ago announced, they would be,, tn the race.' Ones They Were Friends, The spectacular end of this fight un doubtedly will center about Hardwick and Watson. They a r e ancient and bitter enemies. Long ago. they' Were friends—Watson, indeed, is primarily responsible for Hardwick’s entra’nee into congress -but they fell out just after the first Hoke Smith guberna torial campaign and have never made up. Watson’s last effort to defeat Hardwick, unsuccessful though it was, by no means concluded things between them. The “red-he’aderi one" has an nounced more than once his positive determination to run Hardwick out of public Wfe—to pursue him to his fin ish. The recent announcement, of Judge Horace Holden as a candidate so- Mr. Hardwick’s seat now is being taken by many to mean that he realizes Hardwick and Watson are to be oppo- I nents for the senate. 1 Talk of Plum as Peace Offering. ! It Is being talked around th® hotel I lobbies —it may or may- not be loose task. of course that Watson has re ceived some encouragement in his sen atorial aspirations f’Om bt"' “city poli ticians'' he professes to hate so cor dially It is even said that there was an ante-convention "agreement" be tween them, as part of the near-peace I pact w hereby a general Watson row ! was avoided in the state convention, j Some politicians have put two and two. | together—unless it is two and three—- I and they get a four that looks mighty I big to them. It is only fair to say, ’ however, that such talk is largely spec- I ulative, and has little that is authorita i live to sustain ft. The general impression is that the i “city politicians” are w illing to let Ra con go back to Washington without a contest —would prefer that, as a mat ter of sact —but that if a three-cor nered row must. come, they .will :keep off the glass jqst as much as they can, md stand by. mnreily expressing a so: t of non-committal desire that the best man win, GEORGIA COTTON ACREAGE I 85 PER CENT: CONDITION 71 The June crop report of the state de partment of agriculture, made public today , shows the cotton acreage to bo 85 per cent of that for 1911. while the condition of the crop and its prospect is but 71 per cent of that of last year. The figures show these conditions pre vailing in all'three sections of the state —north, middle and south Georgia The decrease in the cotton acreage is somewhat offset by an increase in corn acreage, averaging 101 per cent of 1911. The acreage of other crops, given comparatively, are : Oats. 83 per cent, wheat, 84 per cent; sugar cane, 84 per cent, rice, 91 per cent; sorghum. 91 per cent; hay, 98 per cent CONFERENCE WILL ACT ON ATLANTA EXPOSITION PLAN The Interstate exposition which the Chamber of Commerce plans to hold this fall at Lakewood will be discussed Tuesday afternoon by Aldine Cham bers, of city council. Colonel W. L. Peel, of the < "namber of Commerce, and S. R. Turman, of the county com missioners. It is believed that Anal ac tion will be tak»n at an early date and that the city and county will join the chamber of Commerce in the work of planning for the Southern exhibition.

JACKSDN BOOMED FOR TAFT'S MATE Warren Edwards, of Milledgeville, via The New York Tribune, has started a vice presidential boom for H?nry S. Jackson, of Atlanta, collector of in ternal revenue. Mr. Edwards is a stout-hearted Taft partisan, and is a delegate from the Tenth district to the national Republi can convention. He is one of the "reg ular" delegation. Mr. Edwards’ letter to The Tribune read- as follows: Tn the Editor of The Tribune: Sir —Every four years the North ern and Eastern press jump on th ß Southern delegation, and from the description that is given of us you would think that we had no South ern society at all. Georgia fur nishes the nation men of brain, ca pable of drawing plans, and then having the .capacity to have them executed McAdoo, of your city, is from this town, and scores of other sons of Georgia have made not only a national reputation, but an inter national reputation. Resent Attacks on Jackson. When the Georgia ■ delegation reaches ('"hicago next month we are going with the determination that a Southein man shall be placed on the ticket for vice president of the T’rtlted States. This man shall be the Hon FI S. Jackson, of Atlanta. WARREN EDWARDS. It is well known that various mem bers of th" "regular" Georgia delega tion deeply resent the recent attacks made by Collier's Weekly, and other Roosevelt organs, upon Mr. Jackson Their determination to give expression to. that .resentment, as well as. their abiding faith in the Atlanta mdn. is said to be the motive behind this move ment to bring Mr. Jackson's name be fore the convention for the vice presi ’denCy. It may be said that Mr Jackson not! only is not a party to this movement, but had no knowledge of it prior to the publication of Mr Edwards' letter in The New York Tribune MRS. M'CALL DENIES KNOWING OF DEATH OF MYRTLE HAWKINS HENDERSONV ILLE. N. C., .lune 1. Mrs. Beatrice McCall, wife of Ab McCall, daughter of f'an McCall and close friend of tb® missing Myrtle Hawkins, who is one of the defendants charged with being responsible for the girl's death, was on tli? witness stand today. She denied all knowledge of Myrtle’s death or that she had known of her condition before her disappearance The court room was crowded, as it was known some of the defendants would go on the stand today. Mrs McCall said she and Myrtle told each other secrets, but the reason Myr tle had not told her of her troubel was that they would he friends no longer. She denied knowing of the intimacy be tween Myrtle and George Bradley, an other of th® defendants, but said she had often seen them together. She also de nied that slip knew Myrtle was heart broken when «he learned of George’s marriage. Mrs Dan McCall was recalled. She said she became aware of Myrtle's condi tion the Sunda' before her disappear ance, but had suspected it about a week before. Ends Hunt For Rich Girl. Often the hunt for a rich wife ends when the man meets a woman that uses Electric Bitters. Her strong nerves tell in a bright brain and even temper. Her peach-bloom complexion and ruby lips result from her pure blood: her bright eyes from restful sleep: her elastic step from firm, free muscles, all telling of the health and strength Electric Bitters give a wom an. and the freedom from indigestion, backache, headache, fainting and-dizzy spells l hey promote. Everywhet'3 they are woman s favorite remedy. If weak ■or ailing, try them, 7>oc at all. drug gists.

Fire con ditions in Atlanta are deplorable. At lanta is years behind in the matter of file prevention, and it is of the ut most importance that our fire laws be enforced to the letter. Our city is s" congested and we have so many old structures, jammed in close together, with no alleyways between them, that the situation is rendered doubly dan gerous If a fire should get good head way 1n one of our congested dow ntov n streets, we would probably have a con flagration that would send out to ,the world a,story of awful destruction. Many Buildings Fire Trapt. "Less then ten per cent of our down town structures are equipped with au tomatic sprinklers, as the law demands, and they are otherwise poorly pro tected. Many of them are mere fire traps, inviting death and destruction. "There arty fully 10,0p0 women and girls employed' in downtown factory lofts and mercantile establishments and their lives are in, .constant peril from fire. Condition;; under which many of these wpnien and girls toil for their daily bread, as to the endangering of their lives, are shocking. Their safety demands better sits. equipment. If these buildings were properly provided With automatic sprinklers, these help less toilers would have a. protection the value of which can not be estimated tn dollars and cents. Fire escapes are im portant. but they can not he depended on entirely. This means of escape may be cut off at any moment during a fire, and. in case of a panic, is iikety to be forgotten altogether. "The automatic sprinkler stops the Are and saves the panic, and heme is of the highest value. This is why the law demands it. "Atlanta has simply played In lucjc in not w itnessing a great fire tragedy long before now. I have been expecting it. Unless conditions are bettered, 1 fear we may see a disaster similar to the great New York horroi. when hundreds of women and girls lost their lives in a factory loft fire. Conditions here are favorable for it. and. in fact, invite a catastrophe. "\Ve are going to start in time. M e have laws to prevent disasters, and they must be enforced.
