Election at Willacoochee.
The result of the recent muni
cipal election at Willacoochee has
just been given out, as follows:
Mayor— L. W. Summerlin.
Councilman —J. M. Roberts, J.
E. Gaskins, E. R. Smith, Aaron
Corbitt and C. D. Met Taw.
Board of Education —C. B. Lind
er, Dr. B. t). Quillian and Sherod
Corbitt.
The new mayor and council are
all young men, gathered from the
ranks of active business. They
will make strong, thoughtful and
resourceful officials. According to
the Tribune way of thinking it is a
splbndid mayor and council, one
that will reflect credit upon their
city.
The new members of the Board
of Education are three of the very
best citizens of Willacoochee, men
who have the education interest of
their city upon their hearts and
who can he depended on to give
the cause of education all necessary
study and helpful oversight.
Thpse officials have already
taken over their jobs, and have
settled down to the task of solving
the civil and educational problems
confronting the city.
Willacoochee is to be congratu
lated upon her splendid set of
officials.
Friends, Indeed.
“A friend in time of need, is a
friend indeed.” So goes a trite
old proverb.
Last Friday morning, while the
editor was cogitating over the
problem, “What shall 1 have for
Sunday's dinner, his good old
friends, Mr. and Mrs. W. P. James,
were thinking of him and sent in a
supply of backbone from their hog
killing. They were splendid, and
it was so nice of them to think of
the editor. This kindness was
surely appreciated.

On Saturday Mr. J. A. Boone,
the Tobacco wizard of Axson, sent
in a sample of his turnip crop —
weighing twelve pounds. It was
too big to tackle for a Sunday
dinner, along with the backbones,
so it was kept for purposes of ex
hibition. Mr. Boone is a splendid
man and a good farmer, but the
Tribune has somewhat against him
—his name is not on its subscrip
tion list.

Pay Tax and Save Money.
In accordance with the law, re
quiring the 'Fax Collector to close

Tax Collector Corbitt closed the
books promptly ofi that date; hut
under the inst ructions of the <boun
ty Commissioners he continued to
collect taxes without adding costs
to the taxpayer until the first
Monday in January, the 3rd day.
However, following that date
the Collector has complied with
the law and issued executions
against all defaulters, and these
executions are in the hands of
Sheriff Leggett and he has instruc
tions to press collection with all
possible haste.
The Sheriff is now sending out
notices to every delinquent as far
as he can get their addresses, warn
ing them that he will certainly
levy every execution in Ids hands
not paid by the 20th day of Febru
ary, and make advertisement for
April sales day. He is positively
directed to do this by the law and
he is expected by the State and
County officials to carry out the
law to the letter. Everybody has
had ample notice and if your prop
erty is levied on and advertised
you will have no one to blame but
yourself.
The officers must do their duty
under the law, without fear, favor

FACTS DISTORTED
TO FOOL FARMERS
Facts of Vital Interest to
Everybody in Georgia
Socialism Will Take Farms
After Public Utilities
Are Swallowed Up
The Municipal League of Georgia
says:
“From 1910 to 1919, 310,000
horse power were developed by
the Hydro-Electric Power Com
mission of Ontario."
The Real Facts About Ontario
The actual development by the Hy
dro-Electric Power Commission in
Ontario from 1910 to was less
than 60,000 horse power.
The Municipal League of Georgia
has much to say about the number of
farms in Ontario using the service of
the Hydro-Electric Commission of On
tario.
The facts are that some farmers in
Ontario, living within or close to
tbwns or villages are using electric
service just as they are in Georgia,
but that electric service cannot be
furnished to farmers generally be
cause of the expensive machinery nec
essary to make high tension electric
current available on isolated farms.
Promises Can’t Be Carried Out
None of the promises made by the
Municipal League of Georgia to put
electric service on the farms can be
carried out. These false promises
are written simply to get your sup
port of their raid on Georgia’s treas
ury.
Georgia Companies Ahead
of Ontario
The electric companies in the
United States are devoting
continuous and persistent ef
fort to working out a practicable plan
of reaching the farm house with elec
tric service at a reasonable cost, but
the problem has not yet been solved.
The companies in Georgia are far
ahead of the Ontario public-owned
body, and second to none in the United
States in the character of equipment
and quality of service rendered.
The Municipal League of Georgia
says:
“The public utilities such as gas,
water, light and power plants are dif
ferent. In them the property of the
public is used.”
This statement is untrue, and Is an
other adroit appeal for your support
in their proposed raid on the Georgia
Treasury.
Huge Cost Will Increase Taxes
The facts are that every piece of
property used by a water, gas, fight
or power plant must be purchased and
paid for. The water in the streams
cannot be used to generate electricity
unless heavy investments are made in
dams, machinery and transmission
lines. The land that is flooded and
the right of way for the transmission
lines must be bought and paid for.
Will Next Want Free Food
Your farm may be called publU
property next on the plea that it pro
duces food and clothing which *r<
