Out of the Incinerating plant, be tween twelve and fifteen tons of ashes are dumped In boles dally.' These ashes are from the 150 tons of garbage burned dally at the plant. Although they are put through a hot system, there Is still lots of phosphate left In the ashea. In large cities north, these ashes are told for about 87 a ton to farmer*. for fertilizing purposes, and It Is said they make splendid fertilizer. The ashes at tho Atlanta plant are not being utilized at all, except to nil holes. If the ashes could bring 81.60 a ton here for the same purposes, this would be 842 a day for twelve tons. Thirty hauls a day would take all the ashes away. * Chief Jentsen would probably be willing to give the ashes away If ths person receiving the gift would do the hauling. The chief needs bis cans for other purposes. Csthollo Church Dedicated. Special to The Georgian. New Decatur, Ala., April 21.—The new Catholic church In New Decatur was dedicated Sunday morning.

That It was right and just. "I believe the majority of the people are more Interested In good service Hum tli-v tiro In into reduction. I’n- Im im gentlemen decline to check the roods In their efforts for Increased facilities conditions are going to grow eons, President Roosevelt Politician. “I confess that it Is presumptions In me to comment at all on Mr. Harrt- man's methods of financiering, but he Is a trained financier and has been for many years. His methods of handling the Chicago and Alton road should not Influence (is one way or the other. Mr. tfarrlman is not a practical railroad man and does not pretend to be. He Is not like our Illustrious president, who Is a trained politician, but not a trained business man, though ha thinks he Is." Mr. Smith paid his respects to Hoop er Alexander for stating In the flnt hearing that pmsoeiiger fares was a tax. Ha aald It was a cheap trick of dema goguery to make such statements. Mr. Alexander Aeke Queetion. “For the last fiscal year passenger rates on the Western and Atlantic av eraged something over 2 cents. To cut this down 881-3 per cent would mean a heavy loss.'* At the conclusion of his remarks Mr. Alexander asked: "I want Mr. Smith to state the prin ciples upon which In your opinion rates should be fixed and then state what facts under these principles would jus tify this commission In reducing the passenger rates. In Georgia?" Nothing But Expert Can Explain. "There Is no mathematical basis on which to base It." replied Mr. Smith. “I reply In the language of a traffic manager who says success Is In moving tonnage In ever increasing quantity. Ths fixing of rates Is a science to meet conditions.” He admitted that his answer was one that no one but a traffic man could un-1 derstand. Rates should bo advanced on such commodities os could stand It In order to Increase net earnings for double tracking and other railroads. Mr. Smith declared that the railroads are spending more money than tho states to Induce Immigrants to como to the 8outh. "In my judgment no man can ad-1 vance reasons that will stand for re ducing rates In Georgia from 3 cents.” [ pe, representing the short lines, asked an adjournment at 12:35 until afternoon, and the meeting adjourned j to 2:30 o’clock.
