The motto of the late J. Sterling
Morton, former Secretary of Agricul¬
ture, was “Plant Trees.” Whenever
anyone asked ^for his autograph he
would write it on a little card which
bore that legend under the engraving
of a green tree in the corner. IIis

The Virginia constitutional con¬
vention 1ms completed its labors after

of the suffrage clauses requires voters
to be able to read the constitution

meaning when read to them. The
test, honestly applied, is a good one.

tion is apt to be a good voter even if

A great many people prefer “Mr.”
to any title in the world. Nchool
teachers rather dislike to be called
“professor that ” for the term is so broad
now the title is not the honorary
distinction it once implied. Most of
the male t.eacheis in Georgia like to
be called “Mr.”—and somebody has
suggested that possibly a number of
the female teachers would like to be
culled “Mrs.” The latter suggestion
is wholly irrelevant, however, and is
dismissed as such.-^-Exehange.

Another Card
Editor Home Journal:
This has been emphatically the
card writing campaign. Prior to
this the stump lias been the forum
on which the issues involved in
matters political were discussed. The
gubernatorial another candidates fight shy of
one and eschew joint debates;
their managers prefer paper bullets
to a wordy battle. Verily it does
seem to an outsider, a casual observ¬
er, that the newspaper is destined to
be the arena in which this and suc¬
ceeding contests are to be fought,
and lost or won. Nor is the reason
hard to find. The press is the most
potent agency not only for the dis~
semination of current events but for
the airing of opinions on matters of
moment pertaining to society, relig¬
ion or politics. The debate lias, nec¬
essarily, and only delivered momentary effect -
spoken is little else than passionate hurriedly display there
a
of rhetorical rliodomontade or an aps
peal to the prejudices of an audien¬
ce. The newspaper (the card, if you
please), is read calmly and dispas¬
sionately and appeals to the sober
judgment.
And, so, if we are viewing the last
days made of historic the stump, an “institution”
that by the giants in the
days are flown, we look anxious¬
ly yet hopefully upon this new me¬
dium. God hless the Press—an un¬
trammelled, unsubsidized Press!
Heaven guide and direct the pen!
Within her sacred precincts may
none but patriots enter!
been My attention, Mr, Editor, lias
recently directed to and I have
“cards” Oeen profoundly that impressed by two
advocating appeared in your col¬
umns the claims ofdlon.
W. II. Fleming. They were written
by two honorable gentlemen—men
whom I am proud to claim as person¬
al friends, Messrs. Wilkes and Star
key. Against them or the distin¬
guished Georgian whose candidacy
they advocate, in all candor I have
nothing. Oft times a choice between
rival candidates is and should be
made on higher, broader grounds
than persona! friendship. So I trust
that no one will esteem this feeble
attempt an act of presumption on my
part when the writer undertakes to
give the reasons why he intend" ‘ '
vote for Mr. Hardwick. I , “l

But if the committee thought that
for geographic reason Lincoln should
Hardwick be placed in ? Surely, the old 8th, mu.sl why blame
lie be a

so hypnotize and liodoo t he commit¬
tee that it was a big job for th# lion,

Now why do I favor Hardwick?
I concede, cheerfully, that Mr. Flem¬
ing has been eminently efficient,
I grant that he has assiduously
looked after the varied interests of
liis constituency.
Why then relegate him to the rear?
'That is a fair question.
Here is a square auswei;
Because we believe that Hardwick
will be equally as efficient,
Because we bt^eve he wilt be
equally as vigilant as to the local
needs of his constituents.
Ifeeause, above all, Mr. Hard
wick is the embodiment (if yon

Mr. Fleming there is a difference on
this issue that is toto coelo.
Call it a dream, if you may. It is
a dream that haunts tiie waking I
hours of the best thought of the
southland. It is an illusion (?) if
you please that relieves from the aid

is a dream ? Nay. The dawning
of a reality. The anglo-saxon heart
is thrilled with expectancy as the
herald of the morning proclaims the
day dawn!
Has not nearly every southern
state attempted it? Aren’t all these
statutes nugatory? Can an agency
which cannot confer how dare it; as¬
sume to take away suffrage? As con¬
gress is the only power that did con¬
fer it is the only one that can take
away.
Let it reduce our representation.
Paramount to the making of a few
sinecures for a few politicians is this
problem. Above a few paltry appro¬
priations we place this issue.
Hardwick is for it!
Fleming People is against it!
of Lincoln, here is the issue!

We notice in The Augusta Daily

sing part of it is that The Tribune is

at the same time that
Augusta does and will slaughter

The Tribune admits that E.
Watson is next to Alec Stephens; it
says that Watson is the greatest 1 iv—
Georgian, and it says that lie

Ill a recent article a prominent
physician says, “It is next to impos¬
sible for the physician to get his
patients to cajrry out any prescribed
course of hygiene or diet to the
smallest extent; he lias but one res¬

When medicines are used for chronic

physicians, are effected by Dr, King’s
New Discovery lor Consumption.
Here’s the secret. It cuts out the
phlegm and germ-infeetled mucus,
and lets the life-giving oxygen en¬
rich and vitalize the blood. It heals
the inflamed, cough-worm throat
and lungs. Hard colds and stub¬
born coughs soon yield to Dr. King’s

remedy for all throat and Lung
