The likelihood of Georgia becoming
a producing center for potash an es- |
gential In the manufacture of oam.l
mercial fertilizers, is digcussed hy‘
State Geologist 8. W. McCallie, in his
quarterly report to the advisory board
of the Geological Survey, made public
Wednesday.
“Phe world's supply of potash for
years has come almost entirely from |
Strassfurt, Germany,” says the report.
“This supply is cut off by the war and |
probably will remain so for some
monihs Three different sources nf‘
potash now seem possible in this
country—ke.p, alunite and leucite and
feldspar. The last-named seems to
be the only hope for a domestic sup
ply of potash in Georgia. This min
leral is found in the Piedmont plateau
ag one of (he main constituents of
|granlh-. and al#o in dlkes, where it is
.(»flf-ll found in almost a pure state.
Gieorgia has in these Sources an
Inlmn.vx inexhaustible supply of pot
lush. but its utilization will depend
upon the discovery of some method of
extracting potash from feldspars.
Several plantsg of this sort have been
established and several processes give
promise of success, Should any of
them prove wholly successful,” Geor
gla’'s farmers will never again witness
a potash famine.
“Our farmers, however, can over
come the lack of potash in their soils
by the use of limestone, which is
found in large quantities in this State,
and which, when appiied to soil, is
|nnt only effective in improving its
phyvsical condition, but also breaks up
‘the insoluble potash-bearing minerals
in the soil, thus rendering them solu
'ble, so that their potash contents be
come available as a plant food.”

Though Foe of Georgia, Many in
This State Are Sorry for
His Downfail.
By JAMESM 8> MNEVIN.
The elimination of Blease and
Bleaseism, so called, seems to have
b_r?nA pretty well effected in South
Carolina.
. Not only has
the Governor
himself appar
ently been placed
permanently in
the down-and
out ranks, but
his erstwhile
prowerful ma -
chine has been
g 0 badly crip
pled that it is
doubtful wheth
er all the king's
horses and all
the king's men
ever can put it
together again.
Blease has
been for many
years an object
of profound in
terest to Geor
gians. His an
tipathy for this
State has been
seemingly ineradicable. He has af
fected to hate cordially everything
that bore the stamp of Georgia, and
hag made it his business constantly
to vent his spleen and dislike for
Georgia upon any and all occasions.
It was my privilege—or whatever it
was—to have a two hours' talk with
Governor Biease a year or s ago.
The first thing he did when I entered
his office in Columbia was to show
me a,group picture of several Gov
ernors, among whom was Governor
Joseph M. Brown. Blease had care
fully clipped Governor Brown's head
off in that picture, and he explained
to me that he did it because he
thought “Governor Brown had as
much sense without his head on his
shoulders as with it!”
t] was a fair sample of the Blease
sense of humor, as subsequent con
versation demonstrated.
After Governor Brown was suc
ceeded by Governor Slaton, Governor
Blease transferred his dislike from
the former to the latter, and contin
ued his cordial disapprobation for all
things Georgian. He pardoned many
criminals upon condition that they
leave South Carolina and take up
their abode in Georgia. ¢
Notwithstanding all of this, how
ever, it is a fact that Blease has
many admirers in Georgia, and one
frequenty hears sympathy expressed
for him around and about the hotel
lobbies. His recent disastrous de
feat brought small joy to many a
Georgia heart—ior, despite his freak
feh performances, there are those
who see in Blease much to admire
and murch warth while bheneath the
’clownish attire he sometimes affects.
~ Says The Rome Tribune-Herald:
“Senator West yas appointed be
cause South Georgia demanded it
When the people had a chance to
speak, they cared nothing about geo
graphical or sectional alignments,
but voted for the man of their choice.
This was as it should be. We don’t
want to hear anything more about
North, South, East or West Georgia,
when it comes to selecting men for
the highest offices.” ‘
There ought not to be any sections
in Georgia politics--and, as the Rome‘
paper points out, there really are not.
Georgians vote for the men they like
best, pretty much regardless of sec
tions.
The late election turned little, if at
all, upon whether a candidate lived
in this, that or the other locality.
It was not a question of geography,
although some effort was made to in
ject that idea into the campaign.

Grange, pursuant to a request of A,

American Road Congress, and State

them—will be glad to know that he
‘has so far recovered from his long
and distressing illness as to be able

Mr. Crisp's iliness has been long

to deny himself the satisfaction of
being in Washington for a long time,
The Qovernor, ‘the Attorney Gen
eral and the Comptroller General,
acting under a law passed by the
Legislature at its last summer session,
are sitting as a board this week hear
ing the matter' of the Empire State
Life Insurance Company.
All three of the officials involved
have had to neglect, in part, their
other duties ag the hearing has pro
ceeded, in order that the case under
consideration might be given the at
tention called for. No one of them
has entered any sort of complaint
that this is so, but It serves Lo ilius
trate the manner in which the Leg
islature calmly creates bhoards com
posed of statehouse officers without
a thought of the added burdens thus
placed upon them, and without a
thought as to whether they really
have time for the work proposed,
The new insurance law is looked
upon generally as one of the best
pieces of legislation effected by the
last Legislature. It serves to. protect
not only the policyholders of solvent
companies, but it serves further to
protect such companies against the
assaults of persons with ulterior mo
tives and designs.
The new garnishment law, too, has
produced a rather curious and un
looked-for effect in Georgia. While it
was designed to help along the col
lection of debts, it has served to in
crease greatly the business of the
bankruptey courts. Last week 40
bankruptey applications were filed in
Bibb County as a direct result of
attempts to apply the new garnish
ment law,
As a matter of fact, some business
men advocating the new garnishment
law claim to have anticipated some
thing of this sort, and now the repeal
of the bankruptcy laws w&ll be their
slogan next summer—indeéd, the laat
Legislature passed a resolution ask
ing Congress to repeal the national
bankruptey act.
It is generally believed, however,
that t he national bankruptcy law is
on the Federal statute books to stay
for many years to come,

. In urging my candidacy for Recorder of the city
e of Atlanta I have endeavored in all things to keep in
S A | mind that this is a court of great importance to all
G 758 ™y | the people, comes closer to them in their everyday
4 N\ | life than any other court, and that the position
& )\ | should not be dragged through slime and person-
A . 4 | alities, but should be maintained upon a high and
j?‘g‘-\jP ¥o BN | dignified plane such as is becoming to the impor
,&hg :ké ~.«| tance and dignity of the position, and the high char
g v | acter of the community which it serves.
T o There are no promises that a candidate for this
. e T ™BY" | position can fitly make except that he will adminis
~ g Wy | ter the law. Anything promised beyond this will
A == | discredit the court and cripple its usefulness. How
' W = | ever, this should be done with an infinite amount of
MRS | patience and with a wide discretion. This court
*_“‘_,t B should be run in such a way as not to manufacture
; criminals, but for the double purpose of protecting
the law-abiding community and to uplift our frail and fallen humanity and
save it from itself. :
The humanity of the community is its greatest asset and should be coh
served where it can be. I sglall favor the extension of the Probation System
wherever there is a gleam 6f hope. A harsh application of the power of the
court will sometimes destroy where a little milk of human kindness will admon
ish and point the way to a higher and better citizenship.
The criminal shall be dealt with as his case deserves. But lam reminded
that often this court is confronted with those who are merely unfortunate and
frequently by those whose chief offense is that they are unable to pay. In these
cases I ask for a wide discretion in order that the unfortunate shall not be made
more unfortunate and that poverty shall not constitute a crime.
Respectfully,
