    7,000 HT OPENING
OF EXPOSITION
inarmory
Governor Brown, Ex-Mayor
Maddox and W. L. Moore
Make Addresses.
The Atlanta Manufacturers exposi
tion, designed to reveal in some meas
ure the wondrous advancement of this
city as a manufacturing center, is in
full swing.
The opening was attended by nearly
7,000 persons, who listened to addresses
by Governor Brown, ex-Ma?or Robert
F. Maddox and Wilmer L. Moore, pres
ident of the Chamber of Commerce.
J. K. Orr and Brooks Morgan, to whose
enterprise the exposition largely owes
its existence, were seated on the ros
trum with the speakers.
A splendid tribute to the men of the
South who laid after the war the foun
dations of the Atlanta, of today was
paid by President Moore in the opening
address. He then introduced ex-Mayor
Maddox, whose address was a predic
tion of what Atlanta will be in the fu
ture.
Tells of Atlanta’s Importance.
The former mayor also told in con
cise figures of the standing of Atlanta
today in the commercial and industrial
world and of the wonderful growth
since the early eighties. He empha
sized the value of the two expositions
held in Atlanta in 1881 and 1895.
“What those expositions meant in ac
tual growth to Georgia and the
South,” said he, “this exposition means
to Atlanta and Georgia, and I trust that
it will be made a yearly affair and that
next year we may have every manu
facturer in the city represented here.”
Governor Brown, in a short address,
in which he paid a glowing tribute to
the capital city, told of the hopes of
Georgia for Atlanta and of the firm be
lief the people of the state have in this
city.
Governor Brown made no reference
to politcal affairs. Previous to his
speech he had declared privately that
on account of the stupendous task of
reviewing the Tipipns bill he had been
unable to devote any time to the prep
aration of his speech.
Starts the Machinery.
At the end of his address he turned
and declared the exposition open and
pressed a tiny electric button on thte
table before him. A score or more of
wheels began to turn, the band broke
into the strains of "Dixie” and the mass
of people spread themselves over the
large hall and began to inspect the va
rious exhibits and to sign up their
names for chances on several hand
some souvenirs which are to be given
to the lucky ones.
In the words of ex-Mayor Maddox,
"the exposition contains everything
made 4n Atlanta, from aeroplanes to
artificial limbs and coffins” While not
representing all of the many articles
manufactured here, the exposition
shows enough to open the eyes even
of the man or woman who has lived
here a lifetime.
Men admired the wagons and auto
mobile trucks, the intricate machine
which manufactures barbed wire and
the women clustered around the dis
play of Atlanta-made stoves and
ranges, the corset department and oth
er attractive exhibits, while the chil
dren 'begged for the beaten biscuit
given away at one booth, and hung in
bunches around the pickle display pre
sided over by "The Guy Who Put the
Pick in Pickle.”
The show will remain open for ten
days. It opens pt 2:30 o'clock in the
afternoon and closes at 10 o'clock at
night. Ten cents admission is charged.

Indian Killed On Track.
Near Rochelle, 111., an Indian went to
sleep on a railroad track and was killed
by the fast express. He paid for his
carelessness with his life. Often it’s
that way when people neglect coughs
and colds. Don’t risk your life when
prompt use of Dr. King's New Discov
ery will cure them and so prevent a
dangerous throat or lung trouble. "It
completely cured me, in a short time,
of a terrible cough that followed a se
vere attack of Grip.” writes J. R. Watts,
Floydada, Tex., “and 1 regained 15
pounds in weight that I had lost."

PARKER AND WALKER
ATTACK EACH OTHER
FROM STUMP IN 11TH
QUITMAN, GA.. Aug. I.—The second
of the series of joint debates between
J. Randall Walker and Judge T. A.
Parker, candidates for congress from
the Eleventh congressional district, was
held here today, the speeches being
practically the same as delivered .1;
Homerville on Tuesday, when the can
didates met in their first debate.
Judge Parker referred to Colonel
Walker’s record in the Georgia legisla
ture in 1908 and criticised his failure
to vote on a number of important bills.
He also charged Colonel Walker with
having made unfair attacks on him at
various places throughout the district.
This charge Colonel Walker disclaimed,
and said Judge Parker was unwarrant
ed in making it.
Colonel Walker defended his record
as a legislator and quoted from the acts
of the legislature to show that he had
voted on some of the bills it was claim
ed that he had not. He charged that
Judge Parker, who was a candidate for
the state senate in Appling county sev
enteen years ago, had bolted the con
vention when his opponent, Dr. Comas,
was nominated, and had come out as ar.
Independent, afterward withdrawing,
but voting for Bennett, a Populist.
Judge Parker replied that he voted for
Bennett solely on the moral issue of
prohibition, as Dr. Comas had an
nounced that he favored the establish
ment of a dispensary.
Colonel Walker also ctlticised Judge
Parker for holding to his seat on the
superior court bench while running for
congress.

Chronic Diseases
THE reason many doctors do not have
success tn treating chronic or long
standing diseases Is because they do not
Bget to the cause of
the trouble—lncor

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY. AUGUST 1. 1912.
BRDRES OUT FOR
APPEALS COURT
Declaring that the people of Georgia
have lost faith in the administration of
the laws of the state. Judge Nash R.
Broyles, Atlanta’s recorder for the past
twelve years, has announced his candi
dacy for the office of judge of the court
of appeals, now held by Judge J. R.
Pottle. He asserts that if elected he
will not reverse a decision of any lower
court upon technical grounds.
Judge Pottle, with whom he will con
test, now is serving the unexpired term
of Judge Arthur Powell.
In his announcement, Judge Broyles
says:
"In Georgia the law should be su
preme. At present this is far from be
ing the case. In the matter of mur
ders, robberies, whisky selling and pis
tol toting, Georgia's record is not one
to bring the flush of pride to our cheeks,
but rather the flush of shame.”
The candidate says that one reason
for this situation is the wholesale ap
peals of criminal cases upon technical
grounds and the reversal of convictions
for purely technical reasons.

a harmless vegetable remedy that will
start your liver without violence, and
if it does not give complete satisfaction
the druggist will refund your money
with a smile.

Tone for yourself or your children, you
have insured your family relief from
attacks of constipation, biliousness,
lazy liver and headache. It is as bene
ficial and safe for children as for
adults. A bottle of Dodson’s Liver

should keep in the house. Your money
is safe, because you can return the

Clearances In the Juvenile
Department
Third Floor
With children’s colored and white dresses and
misses’skirts and suits marked as you will find below, the
Juvenile Department should be crowded tomorrow with
mothers who have some idea of thrift. For the dresses,
ski +s ind suits are those that the young folk will like—
th r ttractivenessis not alone one of price- which, until
youean see tomorrow with your own eyes, you may
judge by their actual worth as shown by their former
prices.
Children’s SI.OO Colored Dresses 42c
The SI.OO value of these dresses is real, not imagi
nary. It is determined by actual cost of materials
and trimmings and making. They are of ginghams,
percales and lawns dainitly colored and trimmed and
in sizes from 2 to 6 years.
Children’s $1.50 to $2.25 White Dresses 8:
Just those dainty pittie white lawn, and checked
nainsook dresses embroidery and lace trimmed, that,
it seems, mothers must always be buying. These are
now 85c, because some of them are mussed and be
cause there is not every size of every style—but all
sizes are here from 2 to 6 years.
Also $3 and $4 White Dresses, in the same sizes,
will have a clearance. Their new price is $1.50, and
they are very pretty with baby pattern embroidery
bands, edges and insertions.
Misses’ $4.00 White Skirts $1.50
Perhaps the first thing you will notice is their
youthful styles. Also you will notice that they are
fashioned along slender lines to fit--girls. These are of
linen and pique—all white. But beside them are a few
ratine skirts in deep cream color, trimmed with
large buttons These were $5.00; now they are $2.95.
Misses’ Suits, Long Coats and Dresses
at $8.75
They Were Formerly $22 50 and $25
Here now is an opportunity!
We have gathered all that remain of the
stylish Whipcord and White Serge Suits and Coats
and Dresses for misses into one assortment, formerly
$22.50 and $25, and marked them at $8.75 for a quick
clearance. And if you will consider the service that
such suits, coats and dresses will give in the fall
months ahead, you will appreciate the economy this
sale means—and for those who are about to travel
to the sea shore or to the mountains, these garments
of wool are a necessity right now.
At $5.75 are allthe White Serge Suits and Dress
esthat were $15.00 to $17.50, together with a few white
blazers, so popular just now.
