Cordele, ' Ga., under the Act ol March 3rd, 1879, Members of The Assoclated [Prese The Associated Press 1s excuigive fy entiiled to the use for republica tioa of all news dispatches creditec #0 it or not otherwise credited ir this paper and slso the local news published herein. The wide general complaint is that political farmers are now farm ing the dirt. This is the republican "farmer's version. The real trouble is the Fordney-McCumber tariff. The Brundswick Board of Trade and Young Men’s Club have out in vitations to attend the opening of the St. Simons highway on July 11, One of the most praisworthy exam ples of public entreprise is this high way to St. Simong opened at a cost of close to half a million dollars. Auto traffic can go direct to the beach at St. Simons. It will be well to require the au toist: under provision of law to bring h'g car to a stop at a railroad cross ing, but it will not be well to re leace the railroad from any of its ‘ respon:ibility in the premises, Law or no law, the final disposal of fact before a juiy in a damge suit would depend on 'thu witnesses—the legal battle over the evidence. HE WILL NOT HAVE TIME | Bishop Candler says he has never taken a vacation, If he enjoys them no more than we do he deserves little eredit for the ‘*‘sacrifice.,””—Dalton Citi zen, : Well, of tte bishop wing in his effort to prevent southern Method ism from joining northern Method ism in the battle for christian con quest of this country first and then the world, he will have no time for a 2 vacation. Scathern Methodism is inclined to join the north and his task promises to be a hard one. But aside from that it is not <o much like crime for one to take a vacation from the ardunous duties of the inside. It gives one many new opportunities to study man and na ture in & fferent atmosphere. We like to accord to everybody his own choice. Staying at home may be best for those who want to stay, but as for us, give us the open and a look into new faces for a rest, It helps—it helps! THE MADISON SQUARE CONFLICT There ave all sorts of predictions as to what will be done at the Na tional Democratic Convention now in session in New York. Alrveady there are direct contridictions in quarters where men are supposed to know as to the length of time. David Law renee thinks MeAdoo will be able to storm every quarter with his coun try wide wave of popularty and se cure the nomination in a reasunably short time. | He even thinks McAdoo will be ble to use Al Smith to advantage !l the cpportune moment, and his Jogic affords good reading to those who hope tor a McAdee v.ctory. On the other hand, there are mn\fl who aie looking for an old time set to and fight which may drag thru tense days like those at Baltimore in 1921. They have reasons to nfl't‘l“ to justify their views—and there you are. Take youx rholce. ‘ The democrats may be vxpecwdl to take full time to nominate all the favorite son: and give these dele gations: their convention opportun- ies to stage demonstrations. It takes more time to run a convention the democratic way. So the world may wait a week at least before any thing definite can be known. “Al Smith's friends are proving hosts in a big way. Much of the entertaining and feating is done with the purpo:w,' it is generally con ceded, of winning what can be had of the popularity that can come thru being a whole-hearted, big-hearted host to the delegates. Bu! there is promise of a great and formidable McAdoo attack on all this and other ruses far more ghrewdly planned to heat McAdoo. We believe McAdoo has one of the smoothest machines ever set up at guch a convention, becauze we be lieve McAdoo thoroughly under slands the foe behind the scenes— the interests in the person of the in ternational banker and men like An drew Me'lon, now secretary of the treasury under Coolidge who cares nothing for party lines in their fight for control. The begt part ofr our hope is cen tered in the fact that McAdoo knows the enemy. He understands his fight and he knows that he must de feat the wealth of this country in the big banking nystéms and the big mannfacturing trusts before he can even represent the democracy of this country as the party nominee. He must beat combned money in terests of the republicans and the ‘ democrats in the fight he must make in Madison Square Garden. He must fight the real fight at the con ~vention because he has already won the popular confidence of the coun try wherever he hag beei before the people at the ballot box. The capitalistic interests which are now in control of the povern “ment already know that they must make their stand—their last ‘stand —at Madison Square Garden this week., If McAdoo is nominated, the people will elest him. No matter what eles happens, this much is true, that public pressure is going to be used by McAdoo. Please do not let anybody assume that McAdoo and his fitends will not make the most of the fact that McAdoo is a popular choice. ; We have scen great football bat .+ in which the victor hit the lines with merciless =peed and fury. The crash eame—wa< bound to come be cause nothing elee in the wide world was possible of accomplishment. We remember something of that great courage and valor with which {he American soldiers plunged at the Hindenburg and Kreimheld lines in ihe German defense—we know some thing of the matchless speed with which the plunges were made. No thing elese in‘ the wide world but victory could have come to that malchless fighting machine in the world war. an | Today as we face the conflict there is another machine all set— and one of the men who laid some of the deeply effective plans in it ‘ has created this political epgine, of i conflict. That man understands the fight he must make. It is going to require great human ingenuity to de ‘ feat him for he is o denius. | We look for a McAdoo victory. } How long it will take, we cannot w:th i any degree of certainty predict. We l only know he fights with great speed and effect—and never quits. MIDSUMMER-NIGHTS DREAM New York World: Come sit thee down upon this flow ery bed, While 1 thy amiable cheeks do coy, And stick musk-roses in thy sleek, smooth head, And kiss thy fair large ears, my _gcnlk\ joy. Not since Bottom the weaver awoke one evening and found him self a donkey has there been any thing so perfect as the performance oi Mr. Frank ‘W. Mondell. Cast for the part of Pyramus. Bottom warned the audience to look {o its eyes. “I will move stones'’ What stone could resist tne ex-Con sressman from Wyoming? Mr. Mon dell goes back to the Demoecratic Ad ministration of Woodrow Wilson for his tears. ‘‘Scandalous mimanage-- ment.””’ (Compare Daugherty.) “Wholly indefensible fecord.”’ (Compare Fall) “Orgy of reckless and extravagant expenditure.” (Com ‘pare the bonus) “Unwise and inde fensible policy. "‘(Compar_e an in suit to Japan.) “Not a single re deeming feature.”” (Compare the two-hundred- million-dollar gplagh of Col, Charles R. Forbes.) ~ But Bottom was not only to weep tears. but play the lion too. “I wil) rear, that I will de any man’s heart good to hear me; I will roar, that I will make the Duke gay.‘lLet him roar again, let him roar again.’ *’ And what a roar! All standing records for _ superla tives are sghattered in one afternoon. Never—not only in these modern times but “never’’—was an Admin-- Astration confronted with more dif ficult and perplexing problems than those presented to the Republican Adminisration and Congress elected four years ago.”’ ~ Never were such problems so mag ‘nificiently solved—this iz a record S fwithout parallel fn the annals of government,”’ ~ Never in its sixty years of history has the Republican party made @ single slip: “‘“We are met as repre sentatives of a great political party that * * * has never proposed nor advocated an unwise or unsound na tional poll(:y.”' And never—for Mr. Mondell sweeps us with him to superlativeg—has a National Convention had an orator with larger and more furry ears. el QU L A HUMAIN-INTEREST STORY Spartanburg (S. C.) Herald: What makes the newspaper game such a fascinating work is the freak turns and twists one encounters in the field of gathering news. Thig point is vividly brought out by Har- Ty M. Hyde, staff correspondent of the Baltimore News, who in a dis patch from Cleveland, Ohio, where he is covering the JRepublican Nau tional Convention, dramatically pic tares Henry Cabot Lodge irriving at Cleveland hotel and walking in to a room where the Massachuseits dclegation is holding a meeting at which T.odge is dethroned, humilizt ed, ignored—‘“none so poor to do him reverence.”’ But it was more than i pen pic tire of the senior senator from Massachusetts that this staff corre spondent draws, as the following ex tract from the news story shows: “As shown and with an escort he (Lodge) climbed the wide marhle steps leading to the big room which was to be the scene of his political execution, theve f{ollowed, one step hehind, a tall, handsome youth, who watched with evident concern every labored step taken by the old sena tor. It was Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., grandson of the Bay State states man, himself a reporter on a 4 Boston paper. Now, with grim irony. {he hov had been assigned to ‘cover’ the hu miliation of his grandfather.” Here’s the material for what news- Faper men call a human-interest story’’ with the loeal toueh. INDIANS MUST LEARN TO FASHION NEW TYPE OF TOURIST SOUVENIRS Cass Lake, June 26. (AP)—Dame i“ashion who, ever since the Indians relinagnished their land, has smiled upon the red men, making their characteristic creations popular with the white brethern now is frowning upon the offerings of the dexertous tribesmen : Dr. W. B, Heagertry, superintend ent of the Ojibway Sales Agency, says that the Indian’s contri®ations to curio ¢ollections such as beaded things, blankets, lace handkerchiefs and miniature birch-bark canoes, must be revolutionized to further capitalize the modern white man’s passion for novelties.’ The superintendent blames fash-- iot alone for ihe complicated situa tion which the ageney, promoted by the- Episcopal Diocese of Duluth, now is attempting to solve by teach ing its Indian proteges that, to continue in the bloodless fight against the high cost of living, they must cater to the fantastic whims bestowed by custom upon their white neighbors. In vears past, according to Dr. deacerty, (he Indian, or rather his squaw. found a ready market for the waste paper basket, work baskets, miniature canoes and other trinkets which they made with their own hands. But now fashion decrees that it is no longer correct to have these curios in sight around the house, so sales have fallen to virtually neth ing. Ojibway women also make exqui site point lace handkerchiefs which formerly brought faney prices, but «customs holds that they are no long er in style, so these one-time popu lar ornaments go a-begging, says | superintendent. ‘*Another conflicting angie.” Dr. ),Hea;:ert_v continues, *““concerns the 'beadwork on bags, moccasins and THE CORDELE DISPATCH chaing done by Ojibway women, The cogt of glass no wis so high and .uxo quality so inferior that bead work cannot be done at a profit, ~ “And the worst of all the Indian, derrived of his tribal costumes by ‘the advance of civilization, cannot understand all of this. It is especial ly ditficult for them to turn their talents to other channels.'” " The problem was revealed to mis sion workers during the first year’s ;()premtion of the Ojibway Sales Agency. This agency was establish ed to’ help the rapidly diminighing tribesmen to bridge the gulf be tween themselves and the white man’s civilization by effecting “an economic and moral reformation.’’ The church would abolish the old ONEHUNDREDTH FRIDAY SPECIALS TPTOMOREREOW | TR (“"?"’% (3N ~ i >}} r; iV.

The in crease of the alcoholic content of beer is-deplered by Dr. Abel, who says alcoholism has increased in Ger many in direct proportion to the in creased manufacturer of heavier beer. : «1 The Nuremburg institute for ths . care of alcoholics -dealt “with only 20 cases in 1917, while the number of cases were in 1921 and 1922 re cpectively 442 and 1,788. Other hospitals are said by the doctor to show inereases similar in alcoholic cases. 4
