Thla ought to entitle him to the aupport of pro gressive, thinking men, who are neck ing honcat, efficient and fair govern ment, • Personalities, prejudices and antaß- 1 nnlaina play too big a part in Georgia politics. We hope the day has dawn ed in which men will go to the polls and register their choice of candidates without considering cliqual Jealousies and factional prejudices, but with a careful and conscientious regard to the best interests of the whole people of the state. We need hroad progressive men to the front 1n Georgia. Men who are free from the taint of the political ma i hlne and men w hose ndnds are not subjugated to the hypnotic control of corporations. • As wo have before remarked It Is very important that the people of Georgia select their own governor. We cannot afford to leave the destinies and developments of thla great stats to the-scheming of selfish political ex ploiters and established political ma chinery. The man who polls his vote for the governor of Georgia rests under u sacred responsibility. It Is his duty to act with deliberation and conscien tious thought. It is his duty to take measure of tho character of the man who is running and the platform upon which his race Is made. Haharwa being equal, suppose we simplify matters by leaving this issue out of tho question? THE LANGUAGE OF SALUTES. Tho position of The London Dully Telegraph that It mutter* not what Wublniton may aay about It, If Huer ta ran make the Mexicans bellovo a Saturn aalute oon*tltute* recognition by the United Staten la far fetched.

The lan guage of precedent and International etiquette la especially open to the** (nlaconatnictlona but fortunately this la ao well recognized that there I* n sort of rushing forward among nations to give their interpretation* to every little gun-firing deed the meaning all It* own The fact that the president and the secretary of state distinctly state that a return aalute will have no other meaning than a gracious acceptance of the urged apology makes It all about as clear as it I* possible to be. It Is a waste of time to consider how Huerta may endeavor to present It t« the Mexicans. Aside from all these considerations, howgver, we think that the effect of sending the United State* ships to Mexican waters cannot fail to he good. The Mexicans need a re minder that the United States is not going to tolerate Impudence and Is prepared, whenever events demand It. to look after her own self-respect with forcefuj "argument." It is as well to growls*qd hark once in a while when watchfully waiting. If Huerta desires Intervention from the United States, let him continue hi* insolence and bring It on. but be is not likely to endear himself to the Mexicans by letting it he seen.

(To Be Continued -Tomorrow.) PASTOR DUBOSE, LOCKIMUfiS Strict Secrecy Maintained Aa to the Proceedings at Last Night's Meeting of Church Stewards. Atlanta, Ga.—Strict secrecy was en joined upon ail those who participat ed Thursday night In a special con ference between the stewards of the .First Methodist Church and its pas tor. the Rev. H. M. DuHose. It Is understood, however, that the main object of the meeting was to formu late definitely tlm future attitude to ward locker clubs of the church and Its pastor. The pecesslty for such action is Raid to have arisen from the wide divergence of the views oT Dr. Du- Bose and a considerable portion of his congregation. The divergence rs believed to have been emphasised by the expression of Dr, Dußose's atti tude In the resolutions recently adopt ed by the ministers' union. These resolutions were at first understood to forbid church members from be longing to locker clubs under penalty of discipline In a subsequent letter this construction was disclaimed by the members of the union. The In tent. It was said, whs to condemn locker clubs, but not to threaten church members who belonged to them. 'When questioned last night. Dr. Du- Bose sahi the stewards wished noth ing snld'about the meeting. He was asked if his own attitude on locker j clubs bad undergone any change. "None whatever." he answered. “Is it to be understood that you are opposed to them?" he was asked. "It certainly Is," he replied. “And that you are opposed to the members of your congregation belong ing to them?” ’’Yes, sir." The meeting of the stewards lasted for two hours. The \ artlcipanfls were united In their refusal to tell what had occurred RUSSELL & ALLEN HAS ASKED FOR CHARTER New Cotton Firm on “the Row ”to Succeed Barrett & Russell.

Hadazne Is el ells -Beauty Lesson* LESSON IX—PART I. THE PRESENT FASHIONS —ARE THEY BECOMING TO THE AVERAGE WOMAN? It U often bemoaned by poets and philosophers that the age of great personal beauty Is past; that there are today no unique examples of loveliness to which the world pays homage. There is no reason to doubt the ex istence today of beauty as compelling as ever adorned the pages of history, and there Is every reason to believe that the average woman is far better looking than has ever before been the case. General Improvement In Looks. There are several reasons for this. Women now take more intelligent care of their looks; their minds are better cultivated ao that Intelligence of ex i presslou adds to mere physical ’ charms. Moreover, the modern fash ion of dressing with its wide choice Is far more becoming to the average woman than the more flamboyant modes of the past which were only suited to very beautiful types. In youth at least, every woman today has her share of attractiveness, and the proportion of good looking women of middle age Is growing larger every year. Influence of Dress. While modern dress has not equaled the picturesque quality of the Renais sance or the gorgeousness of the courts of the French Ixiuis', it has ex press'd precisely the modern woman nnd the condition under which she. lives. Cut and workmanship have Im proved; costumes for practical oc caalons have grown more comfortable, more utilitarian, and, as knowledge of dress has become more widespread. Individuality in gowning has become more pronounced While women, as a whole, have declared In favor of dress* Ing along certain prescribed lines ; lermed “the fashions," these lines have Seen elastic and sufficiently varied to lult different types. The result has >een pleasing and generally becoming.- (Lesson IX to be continued.) FORD IS THE CAR The wife and boy* and girl* can drive a* well a* the old folk*. See Lombard.
