NEVIN. Muscogee county, where Ed Wohl wender, of senate biil 88 fame, lives and breathes and has his being, i» the banner Socialist iL 'lm p* ■ ~ county of the state Colonel Philip Cook has waded far enough Into the state election returns to know that Muscogee is entitled to that honor and dis tinction. beyond the shadow of a doubt. The Socialists rounded up 89 votes in Musco- I gee, and that is pretty fair, when It is further un derstood that in more than he If the counties in Georgia the candidates of that party got no votes at all. The impression in Secretary Cook's mind is that the Socialists did not make as brave a showing this time as they did last. He has not yet consolidated the re turns from the entire state, but it looks as if the total Socialist vote is to fall well below 300; and that party had hoped to establish a new high wa ter mark in Georgia this time. Muscogee county, by the way, will have in the next house of representa tives three members, instead of two. as has been the rule heretofore. Un der the new apportionment, Muscogee becomes one of the "Big Six" counties for the first time in its history. The others of the "Big Six," of course, are Fulton, Bibb, Richmond, Chatham and Floyd. Former Representatives Slade and Wohlwender will be returned to the house from Muscogee—they were elect ed the other day without opposition and the new member will be H. H. Swift. The aumomning of Judge Augustus W. Fite to the bar of the court of ap peals for contempt recalls the fact that Judge Fite himself has been in his day and time something of a summoner for contempt. Away back yonder the Judge had some sort of difference with the editor of The Chattanooga Times. Colonel Laps G. Walker, and for a good many hmnths hts honor kept Walker about as effectively barred from Georgia as Tom Felder is from South Carolina. Walker never took the contempt pro ceedings. or the indictment, or what ever It was that Judge Fite held against him, any too seriously- as a matter of fact, he got a good deal of fun out of it—and every now and then he would make an editorial jab in Fite’s direction, to which Fite would reply, either in a charge to a jury or a newspaper communication. By and by, however, the judge and the editor made friends, or patched up a peace or something—anyway. Walk er no longer is quarantined against In the Cherokee circuit. A much later case of contempt in Judge Fite's circuit, of course, is the famous Shope cat**. Shope, the editor of The Dalton Cit izen. published in Judge Fite’s Judicial circuit, poked a lot of ridicule at the judge in a certain newspaper article, and the judge promptly ruled him for contempt. Under a threat of jail, the editor apologized to the court, and ex plained that he meant no disrespect to It—and the rule was dismissed. Naturally, much public curiosity has been aroused to know what the judge’s fate will be, now that he has been ruled to take a dose of contempt medi cine from a spoon provided by the court of appeals. Fred Lewis, for many years political writer for The Atlanta Constitution and whose acquaintance among Geor gia politicians undoubtedly is more ex tensive than that of any other political writer tri the state, has forsaken the editorial end of the newspaper game and will be known to the craft in the To Drive Out Malaria and Build up the System Take the Old Standard GROVE'S TASTE LESS CHILL TONIC.

Mr. Lewis carries into his new field of endeavor a reputation for accuracy, faintest and conservatism that will stand him in good stead as his busi ness builds up. He will begin with the complete confidence of the public—and that, with his unusual ability as a writer. would seem to Insure success to his enterprise at the very outset. For the first time since his election to the bench of the Blue Ridge circuit. Judge “Snacks" Patterson looked in on his Atlanta friends today. The judge wears his new honors gracefully, and speaks most kindly of his late antagonists “I hope that my term of service on the bench will see all old political dif ference? reconciled in the. Blue Ridge,” said the judge, discussing his prospec tive judgeship. "I have been agreeably surprised, and more than profoundly gratified, that so many who were against me in my race have come to me since my nomination was declared and extended to me the assurance of their consideration and help in carrying for ward the work I shall undertake soon. I believe we shall be a happy family in the Blue Ridge yet!” Prison Commissioner Patterson, who accompanied Governor B. T. Carroll of lowa on a recent visit to a number qf Georgia convict road camps, is grati fied beyond measure that Governor Carroll was so frankly and outspoken ly pleased with what he saw of the convicts’ work in this state, as, of course, are his two associates on the prison board, Davidson and Williams. The road work of the convicts is the pet hobby of the present prison com mission. Nothing coming under its jurisdiction or official attention is so dear to its heart. Praise the road work of the convicts, and mean it, and the most distinguished consideration of the prison board Is yours. And Governor Carroll did mean it, too. He intends submitting a message to the lowa legislature, dealing almost exclusively with Georgia’s roads, and the fine work the convicts are doing— and have done. ONLY “CASCO” IF CONSTIPATED Gently clean your liver and con stipated bowels while you sleep. Take a Cascaret tonight and thor oughly cleanse your Liver. Stomach and Bowels, and you will surely feel great by morning. You men and wom en who have headache, coated tongue, can't sleep, are bilious, nervous and upset, bothered with a sick, gassy, disordered stomach, or have backache and feel all worn out. Are you keeping your bowels clean with Casearets-—or merely forcing a passageway every few days with salts, cathartic pills or castor oil? This is important. Cascarets immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, undigested and fermenting food and foul gases; take the excess bile from the liver and carry off the constipated waste matter and poison from the in testines and bowels. Remember, a Cascaret tonight will straighten you out by morning. A 10-eent box from your druggist means healthy bowel action; a clear head and cheerfulness for months. Don't forget the children.

CONKLIN, Sen. Mgr. Men and Religion Bulletin, Extra! “God is in Our Midst” -» The Overshadowing Issue “Woodwardism” Must and Will Go ' ~ Like Samson, Mr. Woodward knows not that his strength is gone, f None was stronger years ago. / j God gave him the ability to attract and influence men. They idolized and trusted him. f They placed power in his hands. Today they love him. They trust him when he is himself. But those who love him best will not, in justice to him and to his city, try to place the government of Atlanta in his control. ~ Not because they believe him a corrupt criminal. But because they know that again and again he has brought shame and disgrace upon himself and Atlanta when flushed with victory and in the grip of his fatal weakness for drink. Mr. Woodward has proven that he can not control that appetite, which many believe to be a disease. His committee rightly says: ? F . “This city wants a return to sanity.” "7 This forbids the election to the office of Mayor of a man of Mr. Woodward’s known weakness. That committee further says: f f F / “It wants efficiency.” r This demands that a man with such a record as Mr. Woodward be not employed. / Only gross negligence would put a man of Mr. Woodward’s known weakness in charge of machinery which might do damage to others if improperly handled. / The machinery of a great city would do untold harm in the hands of a drunken man before it could be taken from him. « His committee says: f * i ’ “The people want a Mayor. / “They want a man of unbendable will and determination.” , A man who can not on account of weakness keep his solemn obliga- £ tion to refrain from drunkenness is not such a man. 7 But what is more to be feared aside from this weakness Mr. Wood ward has an “unbendable will and determination.” His campaign literature shows that, with his “unbendable will and determination,” he does not even understand a man giving a respectful answer to a question asked by more than seventy-five of Atlanta’s preachers, who have only the good of our women and children and city at heart. The prayers of men going Heavenward with those of thousands of women and children can not fail to keep Atlanta from the grasp of such a man. Mr. Woodward favors the buying and selling of women and girls under police protection in a selected district. His “unbendable will and determination” are therefore set upon the violation of the laws of the state of Georgia and the ordinances of the city of Atlanta by bringing back into the city the traffic which depends for existence upon the betroyal and debauchery of girls and women. To do this, he must destroy Chief Beavers. -■* Consider! No one proposes or wishes to bring “blue laws” into Atlanta. But citizens and churches asked the Chief to put an end to “Pro tected Vice” and stop the degradation of women and the debauchery of girls. The Chief did it. And “Woodwardism” demands his destruction. Herod was a man of “unbendable will and determination” that night centuries ago', when drunk, in the presence of drunken companions, he gave to a dancing girl the head of John the Baptist. John had said, “It is not lawful.” Atlanta’s heart aches today. She has deserved better of her son. Mr. Woodward, who loves the city, knows this. Away from his advisors and alone, better than any other man, Mr. Woodward must realize that his election would place an indelible stain upon the name of Atlanta. The world would point the finger of scorn at the city of “Woodward ism.” Mr. Woodward is aware that this is the overshadowing issue. ♦ We are confident of his defeat. The majority, with God, are against him. But today he has an opportunity to rid his name and city of the stig ma of shame. We appeal to Mr. Woodward himself to put an end to “Woodward ism” by withdrawing. Save the city from the bitterness c-f a useless election’ The suggestion comes not from his enemies, but from men who wish to save, not harm him, although they are doing everything in their pow er to drive “Woodwardism” from Atalnta. His “unbendable will and determination” would have yielded not to man, but to God and his love for Atlanta. Mr. Woodward, consider! This way lies honor and a name that will be gratefully remembered. All others lead eventually to defeat and bitter disgrace. For God will make an end of “Woodwardi&m” in Atlanta. THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD MOVEMENT
