Aside from the local county contootH. there la a state campaign, a congres sional race and a double-barreled sen atorial race for the voters to decide. Augusts and Richmond county ought to compliment Congressman Hardwick 1n his race for the senate with a large vote and the only way to do Hits Is to get your name on the hooka so that you can vote In the primary. Register tomorrow without fall. COMMISSION GOVERNMENT FOR AUGUSTA. We believe the voters of Auguata are overwhelmingly In favor of adopt ing the commission form of govern ment for thla city and Joining the 800 or more progressive cities that live under the new rule. It will do more In push Augusta forward than any one public move ment that appeals to the wholo com munity. Augusta haa twice voted on thla proposition. I gist time the vote was overwhelmingly lit favor of the com mission plan with practically no votes cast aaatnat It. Rut the lilt) was d«- fested In the legislature before the committee. I«et s make no mistake of thla kind •gain. Boon candidate* will he an nouncing for the legislature. Find out how the candidates stand on a com - mission hill for Auguata. Bend n> man to the legislature who will not commit htmaelf In favor of a commis sion charter for the good city of Au gusta. What the county commissioners have dose and ore doing for the county oT Richmond, commission government will do for the city of Augusta. Au guata is handicapping its future by living under the old worn-out coun cllmsnlc plan. MORE STEAM FOR THE GOOD OLD TOWN. It !■ a writ known fact that tho more train* a road run* tho more pas •nt|o travel Is stimulated. The Geor gia Railroad ha* one of the bent local paaeeniiri travel* In the South. We truat there I* nothin* in the report that the contemplated changes In train •arvlen for th*t road will In any way hamper or curtail the t;‘undid local accommodation train service. The Georgia undoubtedly need* a through train service between Augus ta and Macon, Augusta and Atlanta, and Augusta and Athene, and such a service could be maintained with out impairing the splendid local serv ice the road now gives. One of these days, we trust, the Coast Lin* i* going to put on that Naw York-New Orleans through ner vier via Augusta and the Georgia Railroad. It will open up a rich ter ritory and will at least put Augusta on tha thrmifch railroad map of the coun try. We suggest to the M. A M. Ass'n as one of the best works for the pres ent year the starting of this agitation lor through train service via Augusta over the Coaat Line and the Georgia Railroad WHEN THE DEAD AWAKE. And many of- them that sleep In tha dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.—l Da ii. vIL i.

Hilly Munda), Imachall evangelist, expressed indlfferen'e and plana to r mtlntie haa work aa If nothing mi all bad bOM ened The olijcc lion to Sunday has been largely on the ground of his utterly un coitvenllonul methods and lan- S auae, and a hlgn-bandad way of caling with situations. Not aa n defense, hut na an intimate study of the man and his work, tne Rev, Elijah I* Brown, some time assist ant to Sunday and now better known as "Ham's Horn" Drown, has written with Sunday's sanction and under hla direction "The Real Hilly Sunday," n vol ume published ny the Fleming II Revefl Company. From It the ■elections which follow are taken There never waa any preaching done Jes like that baseball man does It lie's got a platform to stand on more'n to Idg as two wagon boxes and lie klvets every Inch of It In every sermon he preaches. In Iha mootin' xxx he got so Tied up that he tore off both his coat and vest. Jerkpd tiff his collar and kervat, an then rolled up his sleeve* as If he was a-goln' to help thresh I thought I'd heard rather strong preachln' all my life, but I never heard none that took hold of me like liis'n does Why It goes Into you like chtggerg." That Is the way an early convert of Dllly Sunday described Ills work. Since then Ids deputation has lost nothing In force Htid str«Nigth, Judg ing by the speeches of more recent date and the throngs which flock to hear him. In a place where Sunday waa to hold a meeting a delegation of mlnla tera naked him to tone down Ids re marks To them he replied: "Why, Isl did that I wouldn't Use any more people to preach to than you do!" And that ia the light In which he vlewa hla unusual methods The typical Sunday meeting takes place In a bilge, brilliantly lighted nulldlng with it roped-ln space in front for delegations from various lodges and organist lons, and over the platform a Tinge white banner on which Is painted In lilaik letters throe feet high: Get Right With God A stir come* from the audience pecked in the hell there ere almost always a large number turned away «lrn Sunday appears and lakes Ills •cal on the platform. Several songs nre rung and enthusiasm Is aroused Tbc t»i enlng prayer is delivered by amine ltical clergyman. Htid two or three more snnge are sung. Then Sun day makes a few Introductory re marks of s pertinent nature and says: "Dig up!' The new, shining milk pans which hang on the posts Hhout the ball arc now brought Into ploy, and the ox p* nse of the meetings Is defrayed in this way After more singing by the choir Sunday got-* to tho pulpit and gives out bis text "As the first words of the text arc an,meed." sitvs Mr. Brown “his mus cles become rigid and he bends back ward as IT about to throw a somer sault.

When BUI got off the train and took Ihe ferry across the North Rive r to New York It was just übojt dusk As he stood on the front deck and looked at the sky line of miles and miles of awelnsniring buildings that were Just beginning to be light ed. and heard the steady bun and purr of the great city—Bill began to get a bit nervous and thought to him self "Gee whir! WHAT a place, and I've got to make a living out of pare; Ills collar begins to look us If it had seen batter days; soon he Is raining great sledge hammer blows on the desk to force home hla points, and people start aa if allot at “There I* hut one word that will even remotely indicate Ills manner, end that la “action ” At one mo ment lie la at one end of the platform and the next at the other, and then quicker than thought he ounda hack to the corner, giving the desk a solar plexus blow that would knock out a giant Kver and anon he niakea long rapid strides to give it more whacks, until at last a large piece splits off and hound* to the sawdust floor be low, at which every small hoy in the front row Jumps and says 'Gee!'" And here are aome of the things he says: "I don't care if a church ha* two thousand church members What I ask Is, how much power have they? Nine times out of ten you hlHme the evan gelist when there are no conversion*. Instead of the Godforsaken, booxe hitting card playing church member* There were places where Jesus could do no mlghtv work because of unbe lief where there should have been faith. "I safd to a barkeeper one time, ‘Why don't you give your heart to Christ? You are too nice a Tellow to he In this vile business.' He said ‘I wouldn't he In It If the church mem liera hadn't voted for me.' If there la anything that makes me alck It Is to have some red nosed, buttermilk eyed, beetle browed, peanut brained? stall feil old saloon keeper say that he wouldn't he In the business If It were not for church members voting for him Hell Is so full of church member* like that their feet are stick ing out of the windows." And this Is one of his replies to criticism for the language he uses: "Where you put salt It kills the Flies Kill More People Than All the Beasts of Prey— Phone 383 and Ask Dr . Murphey Onee more. In order to convey some Idea of the destructiveness of this small Insect, we quote from an offi cial report of the American Civic As sociation: Flies kill a greater number nf human hetngs than all the beasts of prey, with all the poisonous serpents prided. They sureud diseusr-s which slay thou sands, while big. powerful beasts kill single victims. All germs—all imaginable nhomln ahle microbes—fasten themselves >n the s|M>iigy feet of the fly. He tirlngs them Into the houss and wipes them off his feet. The fly yo t see walking over the food you arc about to cat Is covered with filth o%d germs. If them Is any dirt In your house or about your premises or those of your neighbors, lie hss Just come from It. lie wipes Ills feet on the food you are about to eat nnrl on the faces and lips of your sleeping children. This does more to spread typhoid fever, cholera Infant.an and other Intestinal diseases than any other rouse. Merc than this, files are the chief carriers of the germs of that most dis tressing of child discuses, Infantile HOW BILL GOT ALONG BILL ARRIVES IN NEW YORK. It somehow." When he got off the ferrv he asked a policeman how to get to the address of his boy friend —the one who had come back to BiliV town front New York and who's talk had decided Bill to make his try in New York. The policeman directed Mm. and as BUI walked up the street to,the subway he heard a roar over head that made him think some of the high buildings were falling on him. lor they dtdn t have elevated trains In the town Hill came from After much questioning on Bill's part THE AUGUSTA HERALD.

Some of you preacn era had better look out or the devil will get away with aome of your mem bers before they can find out wlint you mean hy your aermona." These are some of his maxims ana sayings: I would rather have standing room in heaven than own the world mid go to hell. If good preaching could have saved the world It would have been done lotyt ago. You can find everything in the average church from a hum ming bird to a turkey buzzard. You don't have to look like a hedgehog to he pious la there any bread in rum? Yes, for the tirewer and the sa loon keeper, but not for the drun kurd'a family. I would rather he a pastor of a graveyard than to some churches. If you would have your chil dren turn out well, don't turn your home Into a lunch counter and lodging house.

Going to church can’t make any body a (itrlsijan any more than taking a wheelbarrow into a gar age makes it an automobile paralysis. Also, It Is coming to be known that they are responsible lor some part of the spread of certain communicable diseases, which general ly are dreaded not only for what they are, hut for what they Indicate. But let us return for a moment to the news note Inserted yesterday. Ob viously, It Is n fabrication. There Is not In the whole city of Augusta a do mestic who would think enough about the presence of a fly to even mention the fact to the mistress of the house, other than casually. There ts not a housekeeper who would think of notifying the police of such a matter. But when the public has been bet ter educated by n wide dissemination of scientific fads and data such an occurrence will be not only possible, but, with certain changes of detuil, entirely probable.

Train Boys To Raise Hogs The Department of Agriculture Gives Instructions for Pig Club Members. In this time of the shortage of beef raise more hogs. That's Uncle Sam's advice, given through* his Department of Agricul ture. To be sure the farmers won't forget It, be would train them as boys and hoys' pig clubs are his means of education. Any boy who has a pig can be a member. Uncle Bam has prepared a bulletin which tells him how to Teed and care for his stock. Some of the points to bear in mind are the following: : The feeding and care are as impor tant as the breeding in producing a good hog. Plenty of feed and care may make a good bog out of a runt, but lack of it will always make a runt out of a good pig. To make pork cheaply a permanent pasture and forage crop must be used. Your pigs must have a dry bed and plenty of sunshine Hegln feeding the pig as soon as he will eat, and keep him growing until he Is mature. Always keep plenty of clean, fresn water where the hogs may drink at any time. Quarantine all newly purchased ani mals for three weeks. Never keep a brood sow that will not produce more than four strong pigs at a litter. Always keep a mixture of charcoal, wood ashes, lime, sulphur, salt and copperas before the hogs. THERE IS A PATH.
