The Southern Manufacturing Co
is a wonderful feeder for Athens,
and Athens should be proud of it.
If you want to make your city
prosper put more wheels spinning
around and cause more motors to
bum.
From the large number of fresh
lisb you see on the streets every
morning in Athens one would think
we were a seaport.
Athens is on the upgrade now,
and the man that would raise his
hand or voice to stop it is not made
of the right kind of stuff.
The municipal election is still
void of mud-slinging and hard tales
This is indeed refreshing, after the
campaigns of years past.
The people on Lumpkin street and
beyond would indeed be glad for the
granolythic sidewalks to be laid
upon that street as early as possi-
sible.
If they were to put Ty Cobb in
the jug, you would see greater dem
onstrations than have been held
over the execution of Ferrer in
France.
While revolutions are rife in Spain
and other places, how thankful we
should be that the white winged
dove of peace nestles over our own
dear country.
Chief McKie is going to enforce
some of the minor ordinances to the
letter, such as jumping off street
cars while in motion, failing to
drive to the right, and walking
across the parks.
The memorial service to the late
Judge Howell Cobb was a most im
pressive and solemn occasion. Many
beautiful tributes were paid to his
memory by many of our distin
guished citizens.
The grand jury endorsed Judge
Brand for re-election to the office of
judge, and the grand jury of every
county in the circuit has done the
same thing. Solicitor Walker is
also being endorsed and commended
for his work.
If the labor unions would put one
half the energy and money in enter
prises that they spend in maintain
ing what they conceive to be their
rights, they would soon knock the
trusts out, and that is no fairy tale.
Suppose all the working men of this
country would put ten per cent, of
their earnings in manufactories,
there is no combination on earth
that could compete with it or stand
before them. In our opinion that
would settle the labor problem and
stop bloodshed, and instead of tear
ing down and fighting for what they
believe to be thoir rights, they would
be building up and perpetuating
great and glorious industries. But
you say the trusts would put them
out of business. Not so. A
would by from his own business and
pay more for it. Take the shoe
business, for instance. Suppose there
should be a rupture between the
shoe manufacturers and the unions,
instead of hounding down strike
breakers, just simply take two or
three million dollars of this accum
ulated fund, put it into shoe manu
factories and it would not be long
until every workmen in the country
would be wearing them, and then
the unemployed could be put to
work. As big as the Standard Oil
Co. is, with this kind of combined
effort upon the part of the working
men they could put them out of
business, or any other concern, and
instead of nisorder and riota there
could be established good order and
plenty of good enterprises.

Yes, sir, you must pay your taxes
and sign your own name to the reg
istry book six months before the
state election, or you will be as
-thoroughly disfranchised as they
would have you be.
Gov. Brown is the busiest man in
Georgia. He iB at his desk nearly
all the time, and he seems never to
get tired or weaned. His friends in
Georgia are being increased every
day. He is true to his convictions,
true to the people and true to the
state. Your interests are safe in the
hands of such a man.
How any nun could want drunk
enness to reign supremo without a
cheek, we do not see. Yet some
men claim that if a man gets drunk
a dollar or two fine should be suffi
cient. When that day oomee to
Athens, and we hope it never will,
the old town should be ditched
around and sank.
Words to Freeze the Soul.
“Your son has Consumption. His
case is hopeless.” These appalling
words were spoken to Geo. E. Blev-
ons, a leading merchant of Spring-
field, N. 0., by two expert doctors
—one a lung specialist. Then was
shown the wonderful power of Dr.
King’s New Discovery. “After
three week’s use,” writes Mr. Blev-
ons, "hews* as well as ever,
would uot take all the money in the
world for what it did for my boy.”
Infallible for Coughs and Colds, its
the safest, surest cure of desperate
Lung diseases on earth. 60c and
