HAlLffly WINS IN
TELEGHAPHSUIT
N.. C. & St. L. Can Operate
Line on Right of Way Now
Used by Western Union.
The Nashville, Chattanooga and St.
Louis Railroad Company today was
given preference over the Western
Union Telegraph Company in a dispute
over a telegraph line from Kingston to
Rome by Judge George L. Bell in su
e perior court. The road can operate a
i' line where the present one is located.
t The telegraph company, however, is
J given the right to erect a similar line
Jt on another part of the company's right
of way.
The decision ended a long and in
volved legal tangle between the two
.. companies over which should operate
- the present telegraph line between the
two Georgia towns on the Kingston
. Rome branch of the railroad.
The Western Union Company took
< condemnation proceedings to gain a le
gal right to continue the operation of
<> its present line there, then the railroad
■ officials tied up the proceedings with
an injunction. They declared the tel
egraph company, by operating the
wires now in use, occupied a part of
t the railroad right of way that was nec
essary tor use by the railroad for its
own telegraph lines
‘ Similar questions between the West.
» ern Union and the Georgia railroad,
Jt Louisville and Nashville and Western
and Atlantic companies have arisen.

readers!
Here’s to your
better acquain
tance!
Beyond the
shadow of a doubt
Tootle, of Tatt
nall, member-elect
of the Georgia
legislature, has
the most euphon
ious name that
ever bespangled a
roll call.
One might easi
ly write a melody
around it and em
balm It in im
mortal verse.
Some men are
bom great, as
"Bill” Shakespeare observed, some men
achieve greatness, and some have
greatness thrust upon them.
Tootle, of Tattnall, shall qualify,
right off the bat, for the latter class.
So musical a mime deserves to be in
scribed in capital letters on the scroll
of everlasting fame. It was fashioned
for history that does not fade. It scans
beautifully—it has the lilt and rythm
of real poetry.
Tootle lends to Tattnall a quality of
subtle and subjective emphasis that is
most engaging, while Tattnall is the
exact and precise alliterative comple
ment of Tootle, of course;
Tootle, of Tattnall, is used to having
his friends and acquaintances joke him
about his name, however. He is very
much of a philosopher, in his way, and
he takes the "joshing" good naturedly
and with a thoroughly disarming smile.
As a matter of fact, Tootle, of Tatt
nall—one finds it hard to separate the
Tootle and the Tattnall, even in one’s
mind, once it gets fixe?; there —-is a
most substantial citlaen. He is known
as one of old Tattnall's most substan
tial men.
He is a farmer of prominence, and
enjoys a fine reputation as a business
man. Those who know him predict
that he will take a high stand in the
next house.
Curiously enough, a number of news
papers published outside the state of
Georgia have taken most seriously the
recent suggestion advanced largely as
a joke, and never in solemn earnest
ness. at all events —that Georgia be di
vided into two states.
Some of these publications have com
mented gravely and at length upon the
effect such a division would have on the
political situation, particularly ns a
scheme to produce two additional Dem
ocratic United States senators, and so
forth and so on!
It may safely be set down as a fact
that Georgia never wjll be divided into
two states, and that certainly there is
no genuine and active sentiment within
the state for such a division.
There is, always has been, and al
ways will be, no doubt, a friendly rival
ry between north Georgia and south
Georgia. Every now and then one
hears of a “south Georgia" candidate
for this, that or the other office, to op
pose some “north Georgia" candidate.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 20, 1912.
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Indeed, south Georgia has claimed for
several years that north Georgia rather
inclines to "hog’’ the good things float
ing around and about politically.
And there is the Move-the-Capitol
to-Macon idea, too! That, theoreti
cally, is a south Georgia swat at north
Georgia.
But over and above all these small
things, Georgia isNcontent to stick to
gether—there is no mistake about that
South Georgia has no desire what
ever to secede frdfrn the Union an 1
north Georgia wouldn’t be willing at al!
to wabble along in this world without
south Georgia!
The outside press should calm its
agitated mind. Georgia is not going to
divide against itself!
Representative Gordon Lee stopped
over in Atlanta last night, on his way
from his home in Chickamauga to
Newnan.
Mr. Lee talks most interestingly of
the national situation politically, and
he has no doubt that Woodrow Wilson
will win.
With respect to his own congres
sional district, which went for Taft lest
time on a sort of "fluke.” Mr. Lee said:
“The Seventh district will go for
Wilson all right in November. It went
for Taft last time because the Demo
crats, having voted in the primary, did
not go to the polls on the day of the
regular election, whereas the Republi
cans did go.
"Some Republican leaders in the Sev
enth wished to make a brave showing
in the last election, and they slipped
over a very clever little trick on their
Democratic brethren. It could be done
RESTOHE GRAY HAIR
IB NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage, a
Simple Remedy for Dandruff,
Falling, Faded, Gray Hair.
The old idea of using Sage for dark
ening the hair is again coming in
vogue. Our grandmothers had dark,
glossy hair at seventy-five, while our
mothers are gray before they are fifty.
Our grandmothers kept their hair soft
and glossy with a “Sage Tea," which
also restored the natural Color,
One objection to using such a prep
aration was the trouble of making it
This objection has been overcome by
the Wyeth Chemical Company of New
York, who has placed on the market a
superior preparation of Sage, combined
with Sulphur and other valuable reme
dies for dandruff, itching ' scailp, and
thin, weak, falling hair.
The beauty of the hair depends more
on its rich, even shading than anything
else. Don’t have dry, harsh faded hair,
when a simple, harmless remedy will
bring back the color in a few days; and
don’t be tormented with dandruff, itch
ing scalp and loose, falling hairs.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy will quickly correct these troubles,
and give color, strength and beauty to
your hair.

again, of course, if the Democrats per
mitted it. but I can not believe they
will permit it this time.
“In the last election, too, the Demo
crats were disheartened. Any man
with half an eye could see that Taft
was to win it hands down. This time,
however, the people expect Wilson to
win. If he does not win, the unexpect
ed will have happened, most surely.
Therefore, they will go to the polls and
vote.
“It is a fact, however, that Demo
crats must not fall to go to the polls—
a Democratic vote left out of the ballot
box is really a vote against Wilson.
“I think the old Seventh may be de
pended upon to give a good fend correct
account of herself in November.”
State Entomologist Lee Worsham is
one of the busiest little experimenters
that ever was.
He is the official bugologlst—which
is synonymous with entomologist—of
the state, but he dabbles extensively in
plant culture, nevertheless. Indeed, he
has to know a lot about plants in order
to get wise to the grand, gloomy and
peculiar Stunts the bugs pull off hither
and yon. If he were not an entomolo
gist, one might call him an amateur
gardenet*—but it never would do to call
an entomologist an amateur anything,
of course.
Anyway, Mr. Worsham is experi
menting in his own backyard with a
variety of velvet bean —whatever that
is—the which he hopes to cultivate in
such wise that it may be grown here
after in north Georgia as well as it long
has been cultivated in south Georgia.
The seed Mr. Worsham is using came
from China, and he feels that it would
embarrass him mightily to have seed
brought all that distance fail in deliv
ering the goods.
Mr. Worsham is keeping careful
watch over his experiment. He says
velvet beans produce *he finest forage
ever, and fine forage makes fine stock.
