The Tribune is opposed t(
government paternalism in till its

meat favoritism and abuses of au

“Winter lingers in the lap of
Spring.” and the weekly periodi
cal “cold wave” remains “on the

turned to hurtful grimaces.
The law of libel is a topic for
discussion in some Atlanta quar

The Florida legislature is going

Senator Thomas E. Watson, of
Georgia, couldn't refrain from rail
ing at ex President Wilson in his
maiden address in the Senate a
few days since. llis hatred must
lie of the most sordid variety, liis
vengeance insatiable. But a loop
aid cannot change his spots.
Congressman W. C. Lankford
has been assigned to membership
on the committees on railways and
canals, territories, industrial arti
cles and exposition —all of his for
mer assignments. Georgia mem
bers have all been well eared for in
the way of committee assignments.
Practice is said to make perfect,
but sometimes it does not. The
wedding ceremony had been re
hearsed several times, but the
groom got, the “I do" in the wrong
place. The minister asked if any
one knew of any lawful reason why
the marriage should not take place
and the groom said, "I do."
There are rumors of much legis
lation, local and otherwise, to be
enacted by the Georgia legislature
next summer. The solons would
do well, perhaps the best thing for
the general welfare of this com
monwealth, to go to Atlanta, bar
ness up Billy Hardwick for a two
year term, repeal a large propor
tion of tlie present general laws and
then return home to look after
their farms or other business de
manding their attention. The
country has two much law for the
good of the people. This thing of
trying to regulate everybody and
everything by law should cease.
It, has much to do with the unrest
among the people.
The peonage developments in
Georgia the past month or two has
created a demand for the repeal of
the statute known as the “Labor
Contract Law. Notwithstanding
the State nisi prius courts have
endeavored to “pull its teeth,” it
is still fruitful of peonage and in
justice, with victims from both ra
ces. It is almost similar and as
destructive of human rights as the
“Court Contract" freak in vogue
in the years following the civil
war, when convicts were farmed
out and released under contract
with the court convicting them to
any one who would pay the line
imposed. The terms of the eon
tract made it i>ossible for the con
vict to bo returned to prison unless
he danced to every whim of the
taskmaster, and his sentence ex
tended. It became so obnoxious
to right thinking men that public
opinion forced it into the discard.
The “Labor Contract Law” should
vow go into the junk pile.

Marketing Georgia Cotton.
Atlanta, April 20 —The Geor
gia Department of Agriculture
proposes to put its force and influ
ence back of the .organization of
the cotton growers of the state in
to the Georgia Cotton Growers Co
operative Association, the outcome
of the enthusiastic meeting held in
Atlanta last Tuesday, at which ilie
Sapird or California plan was ad
opted for the marketing of Geor
gia's cotton crop.
While this is a statewide organ
ization, Commissioner J. J. Brown
states it is to be carried at ouee to
the individual cotton growers in
each county, through their own
leaders, and every grower in the
state will be urged and given op
portunity to come in and lend his
assistance to what promises to be
the most successful marketing
movement ever undertaken in the
south,
"It is the purpose of the Assoei
ciation to have 300,000 bales and
more signed up by July Ist,'' Com
missioner Brown said, “in order
that there may be no delay, and
that the association will be in po
sition to take care of this year's
crop.
"The cotton growers of Georgia
and the south have suffered more
than enough already, and they re
