Jenkins Enter tained Before Leaving for Fur lough in This Country. LIVED HERE MANY YEARS i Silver Writing Set Presented to Couple by Many Friends on Islands. A newspaper which came yesterday 10 Atlanta from Manila tells the story of honor which has been attained by an Atlanta man 1n the Phlllplnes. He is James C. Jenkins, former Oeor- Hiitn. and now Judg** of the United Atifes District Court of Pangaslnan. The Manila Daily Bulletin tells of m tribute paid Mm. and Mrs Jenkins recently at a farewell dinner upon Hie eve of their departure for the A tales on a ahort vacation trip. Judge and Mrs. Jenkins left Ma nila March 25, en route for the United States by way of ISurope. They will spend n short time in their old home and will return to reach the Inlands In the late summer. In Atlanta they will be with their daughter. Mrs. Will L. Meador. The entertainment of which the Manila paper tells was an elaborate iffair given by the bar and officers *>f the court of Pangaslnan, at Lin- ga\en. and was held in the Govern ment building.

A handsome sil ver writing set was presented to Judge and Mrs. Jenkins Judge Jenkins has been in the province of Pangaslnan about seven vears. going there upon appointment by President Roosevelt. Until his departure for the Islands, he pra ticed law in Atlanta. Evidence of the esteem achieved by Judge Jenkins in his new surround ings in borne in lengthy resolutions adopted by the bar and court of the Pangaslnan elr< ukt upon the occasion of the entertainment. Commending him as a man and as a judge, they provided that a copy be forwarded to President \Vilaon. The friends of Judge Jenkins in the Philippines say that they are giad in- i- there, and that they want him to say. Mrs. Jenkins was not forgoM*n in the resolutions.

Prairie Schooner In Suffrage Parade Col. W. F. Cody Sends Covered Wag on to Suffragists for Use on May 3. N’FW YORK. April 26. When the great suffrage parade tfavorites the stivrts on May j. one of it* features will be a prairie schooner—a regular one. too. loaded with members of the NVw York Suffrage Association. This covered -wagon will be the property of no less an advocate of votes for wom- en than Uolonel William F. Cody, better known as "Buffalo Bill." It is the 1 idea of the suffragist9 ♦«> make a “caravan campaign" through the State, beginning late in May. To transport the campaigners a Covered wagon is being fixed up. It will not he ready for the parade. Hence the necessity of borrowing. A committee of suffragists, headed by Mrs. Marie Nelson Lee, called or* Uolonel Cody at Madison Square Gur- | den last night and laid the matter be fore him. The colonel said the ladies might use hie covered wagon, and enough mules to haul it. any tinu they wanted it. Then ho told them ie was an out-and-put suffragist, alb: they .tJI h ft Clinging him a mighty nice sort of man. that the House will be presided over by <i former adherent of Smith and the Senate presided over bv a former adherent of Brown, and that will be im even a break as anybody could figure. It should Insure equitable ana fair distribution of committee assign ments ap»l leaderships*in tie* Genera! Assembly, and it should remove all partisan color from legislation ef fected, particularly with a non-parti san Executive directing the entire, proceedings. Financial Tangle First. The first endeavor of the incom ing administration will be to get some sort of order into the State’s chaotic financial System. This can not Ik* done by an Executive alone, no matter how- willing he may. be. But it can be effected through friendly and patriotic co-operation in the General Assembly, such as now seems assured. The limit of the State’s taxing power having been fixed Uonstitu- tionally at five mills, two things are necessary. First to keep the appro priations within the State's indome; and, second, to hold definite appro priations within it certain percen tage? of the five mills limit. In other words, the civil establish ment should not run over such a fraction of five mills limit, the military establishment should not run over such and such a fraction, the educational establishment should not run over such and such a fraction, and so on—all totalling, of course, not more than the presclbed five mills limit. If the General Assembly ran over the various sub-limits agreed upon, the excesses simj !> would i».- void and not embarrassing to the Sfate af ter the adjournment of the General Assembly. As the matter lias stood. Legisla tures have appropriated right and left, without regard to the State’s Income, thus putting the Executive department invariably "up a tree’ in the matter of meeting the reck less appropriations enacted into law. The legislators have "taken care of the folks at home," in so far as the records are concerned, but they have done it by putting upon the Executive impossible requirements and situations. The Slaton program is designed to correct this, and it unquestionably will, if enacted into law. So earnest is the incoming gover nor to this reform, that he stated in a public speech recently his deter mination to hold the Legislature within the State’s income, if he 1ms to do it by vetoing the big general ap propriation bill in its entirety, which temporarily would tie up every State institution. And although no gov ernor ever has done this, those who know Governor Slaton are convinced that be would take the heroic step indicated, if it came to that. The impression Is. however, that the mat ter will not reach that stage. Board of Equalizers. Dovetailing Into this primary, ap propriations proposition and com- plemental to it. will be the sugges tion of a board of tax equalizers. Such a board undoubtedly would greatly Increase the State’s present income, and make it possible for the Legislature to appropriate larger amounts than heretofore to the var ious State institutions, and without running ahead of, or even up to, the five mills limit. Tin* present total Income of the State is between $6,000,000 and ST,- It oo annually. A wall balanced j board of tax equalizers likely would I increase it to from $S,000,000 to $10.- 000,000. An inheritance tax also will be Suggested as a fine revenue pro ducer. The coming Legislature 1s expected to follow the Executive lead, too. in the matter of reforming the present exacting and bunglesome registra tion laws, and provide by way of sub stitute therefore a system of per manent registration, simple In op eration and definite In provision, but preserving the absolute Integrity of the ballot, of course. Reforms will be eff< cted In the matter of paying the common school teachers their salaries promptly, rather that after long delay, which cannot be avoided under the opera tion of the present system; and In paying the Confederate soldiers their annual stipends. Various members are coming to the capital in June. With ambitious in dividual programs of legislation, and from them may come some splendid reforms and progressive enactments. Among subjects sure to come up for legislative consideration are child labor laws, compulsory educa tion. the establishment of a highways commission to pave the way for co operation with "Uncle Sam" in the forthcoming extension of Federal aid to good roads construction, further regulation of the near-beer laws ant! locker clubs, for the banking and, medical restrictions, new counties, a. department of Justice annex to the capital, additional overpass and un derpass requirements of the railroads j at grade crossings, more expeditious (methods of disposing of purely local j legislation, amplification of the work I in the State agricultural department, I extension of the automobile tax ro- ! turn requirements, tentative if not I fixed provisions for the release of the Western and Atlantic railroad, de claration of a policy, and purpose In I the matter of the Western and At- llnnta terminals in Chattanooga and | the prescribing of a central place of ; execution in capital criminal cases. Of course, there will be much an nounced legislative endeavor devel oped after the General Assembly has been organized, but the foregoing are some of the subjects sure to come up for early consideration. Governor Slaton will not he inau gurated uhtii a week after the new Legislature is assembled. The re turns from the last general election must be canvassed by the new Legis lature after it* organization, and the result declared. During the first week of the legislative s. ssion. Gov ernor Brown will send in his fare well message. It is anticipated that this document will be very friendly in tone, us it touches the incoming administration, and will, in effect, bo a message of good will and God’* speed to toe new Governor and the n« w General As set nblv. to Mrs. Longstreet as was th* ♦ >Id Guard t<» Napoleon, or the immortal Gray Legions to her great husband in the sixties. One of the unlettered farm ers' whom we reached by tramp ing over a couple of acres of newly opened furrows, dropped his plow handles witii spontane ous enthusiasm when we made known our business, exclaiming in the brogue of the Southern moun taineer: ‘Laws a massy, yes, 1 want Mrs. Longs!r< et to keep her office. I was a gin her until I svuz on the jury and heerd them corporation lawyers abuse her so unmerciful for tryin’ to git back Tallulah, an’ I hev bin fer her ever sente.’’ Hundreds of Letters. Hifndreds of personal 4 letters have been forwarded to you by our sturdy yeomanry, by preach ers, merchants, lawyers, doctors, mechanics—in fact, by all classes and conditions of our people, in cluding the immediate citizenry and business interests of Gaines ville. Petitions signed by more than 1,000 of the best people who pat ronize the Gainesville office have also been filed, all gladly testify ing that the town has known postmaster who has given us superb service which was veloped by the woman in whose behalf all that is highest in Amer ican civilization has been stirred to action. Special Interests Blamed. I hat the American people have united with the people of Gaines ville in asking your official favor for a public servant whose ciency record entitles her to should make it easy for you turn a deaf ear to the* spoilsmen and to the representatives of the privileged Interests in their com bined efforts to displace Mrs. Longstreet. The Gainesville postoffice has become a national issue. If a loyal, refined and competent woman can be driven out of of fice by political bargaining anti corporation corruption, then it will be evident to this nation that the Democracy is dominated by the money power. It will be evident to the Amor- no the de- loan people that Democracy is in an era of decadence, for the money power is eventually going to be controlled by the people as literally as the labor of the Geor gia Railroad, in a recent strike in otlr State, eontrolled the man- ageirs of that road, and for the same ieasons of principle. Power Company Target. For live months since the na tional election Mrs. Long.-tiv-t has been the t irget of the Geor gia Railway and Power Company In a vicious campaign, which has perhaps been unparalleled in the history of a frqe people against a representative citizen. Mi Longstreet look up the battle to * ive Tallulah Falls when the organized clubwomen of Georgia had abandoned the light as hopeless against a corpora tion which represents more than twice all the money which is held in every bank of Georgia, She organized and chartered the Tal lulah Falls Conservation and Parking Association; went before Governor Smith and secured a survey of the Tallulah Falls property, by direction of the State; unearthed old records which prove* that in the grants of more than 10U years ago Georgia did not surrender sovereignty over tin* "Grand Canon” of her Blue Ridge Mountains, in which is sit uated the beautiful falls of five superb cataracts. which the Cherokee Indians named "Tallu lah” long before the feet of the white man had pressed the soil of the New World. Legislature Appealed to. When Governor Brown refused to bring suit to recover the State’s property. Airs. Longstreet went before the Georgia Legislature with the facts developed by the State’s own survey and secured the passage of a resolution re quiring Governor Brown to bring suit. This suit is now pending in the courts of Georgia. In reprisal the Georgia Railway and Power Company wishes to crush Mrs. Longstreet. Mrs. Longstreet’s friends now urge immediate action in her case.

LEDBETTER SAYS TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: stone This is to certify that I air. a citizen of DeKalb County, Georgia, that I am eighty years old and that in the fall of 1912 I was taken with a severe case of Hypertrophied Pros tate and inflammation of the Bladder. I was confined to my bed for a considerable length of time and made up my mind that I would soon die, as my local physician could give me no relief whatever. About Feb. 1913, I went to see Dr. William M. Baird, of Atlanta, Ga., the noted Specialist in Kidney, Bladder and Chronic Diseases, and commenced to take treatment. I have improved every day since the first treatment, and I am able at this time to attend to the ordi nary duties of farm life. I am not suffering any at this time, and I attribute my improved condition to Dr. Baird’s skillful treatment of my case. (Signed) RICHARD L. LEDBETTER. I CAN CURE YOU IF YOU CAN BE CURED -1 mi ' , . .. if ' Tf? 1 m m m F OR the first time in the more than a third of a century, during which time Dr. Baird, the noted Spe cialist, has been specializing in Diseases of Men, Chronic Dis eases and Nervous Disorders, he is using a testimonial. For years he has refused to do as many have done and capitalize the condition of his patients. He preferred to let each benefited sufferer tell others of the good work he has done. And it was not until Mr. Ledbetter voluntarily gave this letter to Dr. Baird and urged him to use it, that the noted Specialist agreed to break Iris rule of thirty years. ' The case of Mr. Ledbetter is an interestng one. When he called on Dr. Baird he was in a bad state of health, and, as he points out, he fully expect ed that death was a thing of the near future. The Prostate Gland was enlarged and con gested, and this in turn caused a reflex nervous irritation which affected his general health. While it is true that physicians who had treated him had properly diagnosed the case and honestly and con DR. WM. M. BAIRD Brown-Randolph Building 56 Marietta St., Atlanta, Ga scientiously done their best for Mr. Ledbetter, his case required that careful treatment and thorough attention to details which long experience and close study of such cases makes possible. The Prostatic trouble also caused Cystitis, or Inflammation of the Bladder, and this, with the general condition of ill health, made Mr. Ledbetter 's life not worth living. Although this is the only time Dr. Baird has ever consented to use a testimonial, there are hundreds of people throughout the South who can tell similar stories. Letters of praise and heart-felt thanks are in his files, and these patients are to-day cured, happy and contented. While the diagnosis in Mr. Ledbetter’s case was correctly made by other physicians, there are to-day thousands of people suffering excruciating pains, which in reality are merely the symptoms of prostate trouble, which is the CAUSE of all these pains. It can hardly be expected of physicians who do not. make a close study of these particular cases to be able to treat them with the success of one who has been studying and spe cializing in them for many years. These same physicians are probably experts in acute diseases which Dr. Baird does not treat and which he would promptly refer to those who make them a specialty. On the other hand, he DOES know Chronic Diseases, Ner vous Disorders and Diseases of Men. That’s why he says he can cure any case which CAN be cured. He knows these dis eases. Thousands of cases coming under his attention during the past 35 years have given him an opportunity to study every feature and to learn every detail necessary for successful treat ment. There are thousands of others like Mr. Ledbetter. Some of them are old men, some are middle-aged men and some are young men. They have gone from one to another without re lief and have finally fallen into the hands of conscienceless quacks whose only aim has been to capitalize their misfortunes and get their money. Others have given up hope and have decided that death was the only solution. There is hope for these sufferers. Every one of them should see Dr. Baird, or at least write to him. He makes no charge for consultation, and he will gladly tell you just what he can and can not do. He is frank in his statements. If he thinks he can cure you, he will tell you, and he will be just as positive if he believes he is unable to give you relief. If he can’t relieve you he will not take your money. He has written some very interesting booklets, which are free for the asking, sent by mail in plain sealed wrappers. So you may write to him and tell him about your case. Even h:s letters have a tendency to inject hope in the hearts of those who are hopeless. Let him help you. DR. WM. M. BAIRD 5S MARIETTA STREET it XI A&ITA ft A Srown-Randalph Building « 8 I
