The new ordinance requires that each property owner secure fly proof container and cither bury this in the ground or stake it to pre vent them from being overturned It also requires that all containers be placed in the back yards. The pe:plo should co-operate fully with this new law and the results will be most pleasing in every respect. The city however must do its part. The collection of the garbage in every section of the city, whether on the outskirts, or the center of town, must be more regular and at least twice a week. If the property owners nlace their garbage in the contain ers required in the ordinance and nlace them in the rear of their home, they can and must expect it to be taken up regularly. We believe the new ordinance will be beneficial in every respect if carried out by city and property owner.

TALMADGE IN SPRINGFIELD There are many incongruous things to be witnessed in this good cld world. There are the ludicrous and the ridiculous. 'Gene Talmadge speaking in Springfield, home of Abraham Lincoln, belongs to the latter designations. To Tal madge in his mad spite work against the president of the United States, eulogizing Lincoln as the one chief constitution preserver, while demning Roosevelt for having sug gested that it might sometimes be necessary to again amend it—it has been amended some twenty or more times—was the height of silliness. If the constitution had never been amended we would have no bill of rights today, this same bill of rights being called by many the real heart of the constitution. In deed it would be rather an empty document with- it it. Lincoln had his serious difficul ties with the supreme court, far difficult than anything Presi dent Roosevelt has had or will have, and yet the Pecksniffian governor of Georgia will laud Lincoln for the thing for which he condemns Roosevelt. We know of no one in particular j_lwho objects to any tribute that is j () J paid Abraham Lincoln, by any lak. Ti.

We are an admirer 1 the Lincoln who uttered the great dictum, "With malice toward none, and charity for all," but when we •c a shining demagog of the Tal- adge type, who bears malice not only against the president of the United States, but against everybody else who dares cross his imperial path, it occurs to us that it is time look and listen, and see ii the many good things alleged to have been done by our governor are worth the price. He prates of our liberty and yet he is denying that very thing to the people df Georgia, part of it in spite against the demo cratic administration. It seems f this time to be clearly his intention to hand pick a bunch of partizans and send them to the democratic convention at Philadelphia, as repre sentatives of the democracy of the state. He is virtually a self-appointed dictator of the state, and there are many who grab their hats and yell for him e very time they hear his name mentioned. Talmadge is a republican, and should get over into that party and The truth will out. Despite the de nial of Gov. Talmadge ol any con nection with the circulation of the Woman’s World, the step-son of the Governor had a car loaded with them, the daily press declared on Monday, when the car of the youm. man was found wrecked near At lanta. In the Macon Telegraph day a article which was printed in the New Republic was reproduced. This article should be read by every j ^ ashingten. Gecrgian. The author swears to its truthfulness and he states that Gov ernor Talmadge has entered into parity with the industrial and privileged groups of this county. They ask the farmers for suggestions in solving their difficulties and in working cut a program that will be of the greatest benefit to all farm ers. The meeting Friday will give farmers a chance to make these s gestiens and have a direct and per sonal part in solving their problem: Wc would urge every farmer in thi county to attend this meeting, hear .the discussions, voice their senti- jments. and give their leaders bene- Thus- I °* ^eir knowledge of conditions "President Roosevelt has collect- 1 a rare assortment of those whoso trade with the" Republican' party "and 1 biUcrtless tow “ r,i him knows has sold out the people of this Mate i bounds whatevcr Tho morc hc •who honored him by their vote as assaulted by the power interests and a Democrat hhc ^iHtmairc industrialists.
