Little of both, Bro. Rainey. Suppose we compromise it at fifty fifty. A Baptist minister rightly says: “Immorality is rampant and there seems lo lie no way to check it by law. Human passions cannot be controlled bylaw. Nothingjbut the grace of God will have much influ ence on t he masses.” Gov. Hardwick is playing a sorry brand of politics these days. The people are looking on in amaze ment at the manner of man they elected governor two years ago, and wondering what on earth pos sessed them lo do it. Editor AlbertC. Sweat, formerly of the Nashville (Oa.) Herald, but now the Fort Collins, (Col.) News, is full of joy; be helped to elect a Sweet governor of that State. We elected an "honest to goodness” Walker governor of Georgia. The late general election has ad ded to the Democratic strength iu both houses of congress. In the 07th congress the Republicans had a majority in the Senate of 24 and in the House 136. After the 4th of March, 1923, they will have a majority of 11 in the Senate and 20 in the House, according to latest compilation. The Harris County Journal dis cussing a proposed county fair says: “If the ladies will take and hold a controlling management ouk fair will be all right.” Does the Journal mean to say that thero are no clean men in Harris county who can be entrusted with a controlling interest iu the county fair? You must be joking! "It is easy for a community to go down the moral toboggan if it persists in winking at law viola tions,” says The Dawson News. "If public officials will not enforce the law they should be brought to account, and when good officials attempt to enforce the law they should have the support and co operation of all good citizens.” The Tribuuo is iu favor, if prim ary elections are to be continued in Georgia, that they be strictly party primaries. And only simon pure democrats vote in the demo cratic primary. Then democrats can have some idea where they have arrived and how far they must go to win. Heretofore the entire rabble voted iu the primary and voted in the general election regardless. The best policy iu Georgia is to do away with them altogether. Think right, pray right, act right. In these three things is embraced all that belongs to a Christian life. As a man thiuketh in his heart, so is he, and by their faults ye shall know them. Think pure thoughts, have real coniniuuiou with God, deal justly with our fellow-man, and serve. What more is needed? Solomou, in bis Ecclesiastes, ex presses the same thought very tersely: “Fear God, and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” There is no provision of law whereby Mrs. Felton can be sworn iu as senator and receive pay as such. The Tribune, immediately after her appointment, stated these facts which have just been confirm ed. from Washington. It would require a special act of congress for such a thing to take place. How ever, there seems to be a scheme on-foot to withhold from Senator -George bis credentials until this woman, whom her own people have repudiated iu no uncertain terms, can warm a seat in the United States senate. But the senate is the judge of its own membership and it will say whether this fiasco pUali be completed. AROUND THE CIRCLE. The Tribune notes, from the list of appointments of the North leorgia Methodist annual confer •nee, that Rev. O. B. Tally has been sent to the White circuit in he Dalton district. Formerly be as pastor of Pearson charge, then lomerville, in the South Georgia Conference. Mr. Gordon Parker, a brother ia law' of our fellow-citizen Mr. Joe McDonald, died in Tallahassee. Fla., Tuesday night of kidney trouble. He was a son of Dr. Parker and reared in the territory now Atkinson county. He was a Naval Stores manufacturer and located near Carabelle, Fla. He is survived by hid wife and two children. In the recent general election a woman, Miss Florence E. Allen, practitioner of law for eight years, was elected an Associate Judge of the Supreme Court of Ohio. Nope, she is no kin to theTribuneedilor; but they say she is a very cultured woman, of judicial temperament and has already served a term as judge of the Court of Common Pleas in Ohio, a court having similar jurisdiction as the superior court in Georgia. She notifies all concerned that she “has no ene mies to punish nor friends to re ward" but will hold the scales of justice evenly balanced. Guess she will manage to hold the job down alright. The negro, Mace Guldens, who slew Deputy Sheriff William P. Glddcns iu Worth county and (led to Indiana, and where extradition papers were withheld by the Gov ernor of that State until an inves tigatiou could be had as to whether or not Mace could get a fair and impartial trial in Worth county. Mace was twice convicted of mur der in the first degree and both times the State supreme court set the verdict aside, finally saying that the Defendant, under the evidence, could not be convicted of any higher offense than involun tary manslaughter. At a special term of Worth superior court, held this week, the Defendant plead guilty of manslaughter and sentenc ed to serve fifteen to twenty years in the penitentiary. Hon. Junius 11. Chesnutfc, a citizen of Berrien county for forty five years, died Monday afternoon at his home near Adel. He came from North Carolina and engaged iu school teachiug. His first en gagement was with the Milltown school. Several years thereafter he married a daughter of Hon. Henry J. Parrish, a prominent citizen of that county, and became a farmer. He is survived by his wife and eight children five daughters and three sous. He was a successful school teacher and made many friends among his farmer pupils who joins his im mediate family in mourning his death. The Tribune editor became acquainted with Mr. Chcsuutt soon after his arrival from North Caro lina and they held each other in the highest esteem. Peace to his ashes. TRIBUTE TO SHYTLE. The following flowery tribute to Editor W. T. Sbvtle of the Adel News is front the Tifton Gazette. And the Tribune endorses every word of it: “Tom Shytle lias been at the head of the Adel News for twenty years, a fact of which he reminds us iu a recent issue. These years have passed quickly —only yester day he was little more than a boy, and today gray hairs are showing —it was but yesterday, as time is couuted, yet they have been full and fruitful years; Adel has grown, a new couuty now surrounds it, and the country —already almost a garden spot—has developed won derfully. And to this growth and development The News has cou tributed more than any one factor. Adel and Cook county owe a great deal more to Editor Shytle than they can ever pay —even a great deal more than those people realize. We hope The News will continue to grow in usefulness, and that Ipf Shytle, youth will renew itself." PEARSON TRIBUNE. PEARSON, GEORGIA, NOVEMBER 17. 1922 Merchant Now Eats Anything On Table “By the help of Tanlac I have overcome a ease of nervous indi gestion I had suffered from ten or twelve years,” is the emphatic statement of Norman W. Brown, well-known wall paper and paint dealer, of 213 North Cedar St., Charlotte, N. C. "My stomach was always out of fix and everything disagreed with me. I was troubled with heart burn and dizziness, and at times was a pressure of gas around my heart that almost cut off my breath. “Since taking Tanlac my diges tion is fine. My appetite is a wonder and I eat just anything I want. In fact, my stomach acts and feels just like a new one and my nerves are as steady as a die. To put it in a few words, 1 am just the same as a new man. It’s a pleasure for me to tell my friends about Tanlac.” Tanlac is sold by all good drug gists. TRAGIC VIEWPOINT. Hon. G. A. Taylor, County School Superintendent, noting from the reports of the rural schools of Bacon county, that some of the children were not attending school. To correct the matter he had a form letter printed and mailed them to the delinquent parents and guardians. He kindly pointed out that he was anxious for the children of the county to attend school. He was sure that they must have suffi cient reason for their delinquency, and if there was auy way he could help them he would gladly do so. To one of these letters he receiv ed the following reply. It may not be couched in the purest English, nor garnished with the choicest rhetoric, but the logic will stand undisputed; Beach, Ga., Oct. 31, 1922, Mr. G. A. Taylor, Alma, Ga.: Dear Sir in reply to your letter. 1 will say that 1 have had my children in school they was ther the first day of the school, an it you have been told that my child reu have not ben some one have told a false, alltho 1 will say that 1 am uot interested in the School like I would like to be for I don’t think we are going to have any School this Term the way it is goeing and I think we are entitle to as good Teachers as can be got. an two if nessary for our District pays plenty School Tax to have it But we dout get that. We have too much overhead Expenees and to many men to tell us what to do. This county use to be a Free Couuty, But it is not no more and no more free speeehe. but thev are not but two things I have got to do and that is to Die and dip my cows. And that is about all I know. 1 guess from all accounts I will do as some few says do and if I am not mistaken they will put this Country to ruin Finantly and tnorley. So if you have anything else that I must do Rite me an 1 am to your Service. To Your Respect Mr. Bowser K. K. K. Gov. Hardwick is iu New York City, a long distance from Carters ville, Ga.. when, iu an interview, he says: “I don’t want to hurt Mrs. Felton’s feelings, ami 1 hesi tate to offer her any advice until she asks me for it. But 1 will say that according to the law of the nation aud of the State of Georgia, she hasn't a shadow of a title to a seat in the Senate. Mrs. Felton ceased to hold the title oil the day of the election, according to the law. and there is no way of getting around it.” Box Social.
