(SpdiiHTn peo p)e ia Ue Sooth rulb the enot inoua drain ttm bu bM n tne Souta'a weelta. through the steady food and grain buying during th past -titty years. . Wbafs the greater pity of It ia the tact that moat of thta money comes directly out of the farm pocket," aald H. O. Hastings, of At lanta, Chairman of the Farm and Marketing Bureau of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce. Tor fifty yeart or more the citiea sand towns of the Cotton Belt hare been furnishing food and grain to the farmer Instead of our farmers feeding the cities and towns. While the citiea and towns have had the beet of this unnatural business, R has really Im poverished both country and cKy." "As nearly as can be ascertained, my own state of Georgia has spent in the last 25 years not less than two and one-half billion dollars for food and grain from the North and West, -real hard cash money that ought to be -sticking in our farmers' pockets. That money is gone never to return. "It Is no over-statement or exagger ation to say that twenty-five billion dollars of the South's money has gone that way in the last fifty years. It was good, hard worked for farm 'money. What we hare been doing ia spending our lire growing cotton, trading it off for bread and meat at io profit to ourselves. "No use to 'cuss the powers that be la Washington or the trusts, tariff, banks or speculators. They may "nave had a part but a mighty small part in comparison with the part we ourselves hare played. The way to stop that drain on our pockets is to atop baying Jood, grain and ' forage and produce those necessary Items on borne acres. "The time to start Is now. Plans tor 1914 are being made. Before a 3low to ' stuck in the ground, food, grata and forage acres should be set 4lde. These acres should and muBt "be first instead of last consideration. 'When these are fixed, then the farmer jsan go as far as he likes with cotton, tobacco or other cash crop safely., . "Give the home garden a chance in ails' food production. It's a wonderful "helper in rutting store bills in half lor the folks that will give it a square deal instead, of the usual Hck and m promise,' mostly promise, " Start the tc pTcuctlc' procession in VM, ind a money procession will starf to ward your pocket" Wool and the Tariff.

It Is another verification of the old adare that '"chickens come- home to roost" Emerson expressed the same Idea in classical language when he wrote lis wonderful essay' on the law of com pensation. The Republican party ' is having meted out to it some of the over-due vengeance for the thousand false and so rid attacks on Wood row Wilson and his policies attacks which drove the party from power and Wilson to his grave. It would seem that a party which could be so merci less in attack would be able to show more fortitude in the day of its ad versity, but the Republican leaders have plainly lost their nerve; they are at the point where they are see ing things they even flee when no one pursues. They are distraught, ac cusing each other, working little and doing that little at cross v purposes. They are not merely on the defensive, but many have surrendered and have given up hope of ever being able to save anything from the wreckage. Coolidge will be nominated with prac tically no opposition largely because no one cares for his thankless job of leading a forlorn hope. A Republi can said to this writer the other day 'The Democrats could elect a yellow doc but I hone, for th shIca nf thn MiuuMf uw, wn-j mvu tub Vlio up. Coolidge will get nominated about like Taft was. A year before the con vention which renominated him he said in conversation with a friend: "It looks like I will have to be the sacrifice." Coolidge plays the role this year. The RepubUpans are shot to pieces, discouraged, on the run almost down and out. In connection there come back the words of Uncle Joe Cannon, which he spoke to Con gressman William A. Oldfield of Ar kansas. "Bill," said he, "in 1920 the Republicans didn't . need , to tell a single lie to win the election, but they told every kind of damn lie. and now that they're in they can't make good." unDeueyeanie, ior those who remem ber tiie old confident insolence of the party which claimed to be the "only one fit tojrute," and the Grand Old Party of God and Morality," that this is the same crowd; how cowed and tremulous they are, fearful of what each new issue of the -daily papers may contain: Some leaders have fal len, others are tottering to their fall, and still others' are trembling in their boots. As to Coolidge, he is undoubt- edly weak. They have tried to liken, his speechlessness in every crisis- to that of the silent man Grant, but it is a different sort of silence the silence of one who doesnt know what to do and fears to speak. Another investigation looms in the offing this time the performances of the Shipping Board are to be looked into Judge Davis of Tennessee, one of the best lawyers in the House and a man of fine judicial mind, has suc ceeded in securing favorable action on his resolution providing for the in quiry. He will be on the investigat ing committee. Everything indicates that the public, prints will be well filled with the proceedings of the vari ous inquiries now on foot and those yet to begin. The results obtained are making a much bigger showing Lthan those gotten by the famous Graham "Smelling Committee," created Dy tnejlrst Republican Con gress after theJorld War for the purpose of digging out much alleged Democratic rottenness in the conduct nf the, war. When the Committee finished its long-drawn-out labors it hvd found one suspicious connection of a public official and he was a Republican.

This does not include Russia, where more than one million members have come Into" the Baptist churches In recent years. Nearly one-fourth as many persons were baptised on the foreign fields last year as there were mem bers, all told, on the foreign fields when the Campaign began.
