TELEGfIAPHSUIT
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
perior court. The rciad can operate a
line where the present one is located.
The telegraph company, however, is
given the right to erect a similar line
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 tqwns 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
the railroad right of way that was nee
essary tor use by the railroad for its
own telegraph lines
Similar questions between tlie West,
ern I nion and the Georgia railroad,
Louisville and Nashville and Western
and Atlantic companies have arisen.

was promised, it is a magnificent corn

the efmrt of the management and its en
teilirlse as well.

will register the first of a series of big of
ferings that will surely keep the theater
busy. The headline feature will be one
of the newest successes in vaudeville It

Bketch with ten people and four complete
scenes and a burletta on the old-sash -

readers!
Here's to you:
better acquain
tance!
Beyond the
shadow of a doub’
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 wflrte a meiody
around It and em- I
balm If in im
mortal verse.
Some men are
born 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.
Sc musical a name 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 i's the
exact and precise alliterative comple
ment of Tootle, of course;
Tootle, of Tattnall, is used to having
his ft lends and acquaintances joke him
about his name, however. He is very
much of a philosopher, irt 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 fixed there—is a
most substantial citizen. He is known
as one of old Tattnall’s most substan
tial men.
He is a farmer of prominence, and
enjoys a tine 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
hess, 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’ as a
scheme to prodtlce 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 will 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.
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 is content to stick to
gether—there is no mistake about that
South Georgia has no desire what
ever to secede from the Union and
north Georgia wouldn't bo willing at all
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. e
Mr. Lee talks most interestingly of
the national situation and
he has no doubt that Woodrow Wilson
will win.
With respect to his own congres
sional district, which went for Taft last
time on a sort of “fluked' 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
RESTORE GM! HAIR
TO NITURAL 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 corning 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 malting 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 scalp, 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.

druggist today, and prove this to your
own satisfaction. All druggists sell it,
under guarantee that the money will be
refunded !f the remedy is not exactly
as represented.

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 fail 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 and correct
account of herself in November."
State Entomologist Lee Worsham >s
one of the busiest little experimenters
that ever was.
He is the official bugologist —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
gardener—but it never would do tq 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 the finest forage
ever, and fine forage makes fine stock.

Had Tuberculosis
of Glands; Now Well
If you are a sufferer from Glandular
Tuberculosis, or know of any one so af
flicted, it might be well to investigate
this case, where the writer declares after
/n fferit ‘ K ’ he foun,i Permanent
relief and full recovery to health by using
Eckman s Alterative, a medicine which
has been effective in many eases of Tu
berculosis:
267 Laruston Street, Phila.. Pa.
Gentlemen: In March. 1909, I was tak
en sick and my doctor pronounced inv
case Tuberculosis in the Glands.’ Medi
cal treatment did not help me, and on my
doctor s advice. I went to a hospital to
be operated upon, but relief was onlv
temporary. I lost strength and at times
would have cold sweats and fever. In
April, 1910, I returned to the hospital, but
the continued operations were not bene
fiting me.
"In the njeantime a friend of mine ad
vised Eckman’s Alterative, saying it was
good for Tuberculosis. The wounds in
my neck were still open and in a frightful
condition when I started to take it. After
using two bottles, I found I was improv
ing, having gained weight, could eat and
was able to sleep. I continued using it
“I’! 11 as wel1 ’ wh 'ch was in November,
1910. Before I took the medicine I had
three hemorrhages; since I have been tak
ing it, I have not had any. On November
11, 1910, I started to work, and since that
time I have not lost one day’s work
through sickness. I can highly recom
mend Eckman’s Alterative to 'anv one
who is suffering from Tuberculosis or
Gland troubles, providing they take it as
directed. I will gladly correspond with
any party desiring further information of
what the medicine did for me.”
(Sworn affidavit) JOSEPH B. WHITE.
Eckman's Alterative is effective in Bron
chitis, Asthma, Hay Fever: Throat and
Lung Troubles and in upbuilding the sys
tem. Does not contain poisons, opiates
or habit-forming drugs. For sale by all
Jacobs’ drug stores and other leading
druggists. Ask for booklet telling of re
coveries and write to Eckman Laboratory,
