Within twenty-folir hours Georgia
will have a new governor. Friday
marks the. last of Governor Joseph M,
Terrell's 'administration. It. the pro-
great-Is curried faithfully otgL Hon.
'Hokjttjmjth will hold the reins of gov
ernment shortly after noon Saturday.
.And those reins wlll.beplaced in his
hands after what promises to be one
of the most enthusiastic and remark
able demonstrations ever seen within
the borders of the state.
It Is doubtful If Georgia ever had a
governor who went Into ofllce with the
demonstration that promises to accom
pany the installation of Governor-elect
Hoke Smith.
Thousands of enthusiastic Georgians
from every section of the state will be
In a grand parade which wilt probably
eclipse anything seen In Atlanta In
many years. From present Indications
it Is safe to predict that from 8.000 to
8.000 men will be line—most of them
men who worked and voted for the
election of the man In whose honor they
will parade.
A Great Parade.
The parade will be an echo of the
enthusiasm which wai aroused by the
forceful and ^eloquent Atlantan from
the Tennessee to the Florida lines and
from the Chattahoochee to the At
lantic when he stumped the state In the
Interest of reform.
The parade, which will mark a tri
umphal entry of the governor-elect to
the executive chair, will be led by
platoons of mounted police nnd tno
Fifth regiment of Georgia Infantry, to
gether with Troops K and L, of the
First cavalry of the national guard.
Following the military will come the
governor-elect, and there Is every inoi-
cntlon that his Journey from
dence, on West Peachtree street, to tne
capital, where he will have the oath or
office administered to him, will be 41 °” e
continuous ride of enthusiastic ovation.
All day Friday large delegations of
enthusiastic Hoke Smith supporters be
gan arriving from every section or tne
state to participate In the Inaugural
parade. One of the first delegations to
arrive was a party of about fifteen front
13a in bridge. This party represents the
Hoke Smith Club of that city, and by
night hundreds of others will have ar
rived.
Whole Club Invitsd.
Some three thousand Invitations
have been sent out from the Hoke

The parade will move down Peach-
true through the center of the city to
Whitehall end on to Hunter and down
Hunter to Pryor, out Pryor to Mitchell,
when the turn to the capital through
Mitchell will be made.
After the capitol Is reached, the mil
itary will be formed and will salute
the governor-elect as his carriage
liasses, and when he alights to-be es

Justice Fish will administer the oath

Visitors Coming.
In nddltlon to the Hoke Smith clubs
‘ undreds of other visitors are flocking
o Atlanta because of the cheap rates
Thu railroads and one of the targ
et crowds In many years Is expected.
After an executive session of near
nn hour’s duration, the senate Friday
confirmed twenty-three of Governor
Terrell’s ad Interim appointments.
Confirmation of the appointment of
A. S. Johnson, Judge of the city court
of Baker, was held up on a legal ques
tion. Judge Johnson is mayor of the
town of Newton, and the question arose
ns to whether he could hold both of
fices at ;he same time.
A committee consisting of Senators
Felder, Flynt and Hayes was named
to Investigate the question and report
back to the senate Immediately. Ac
cording to the general view the ques
tion Is not one for the senate to pass
upon, but Is an.iss.ua to be determined
bj-' judicial action.
Following the publication In The
Georgia^ Friday of the fact that the
ad interim appointees of Governor Ter
rell had been held up. the Interested
parties hurried to the capitol from all
parts of the state, and a dosen or more
of the appointees were busy Friday
morning.
It is said that a movement was on
foot among a few to hold up all of the
appointments, or at least many of
them, or fail to confirm. The friends
of the appointees and of Governor Ter
rell, however, got busy and squelched
the movement said to have been Inau
gurated by a few.

supplemental message was re
ceived from Governor Terrell. He ap
pended the award, in the case of the
Sherman J. Sims heirs case.
Several years ago Sherman J. Sims
and his family were given lifetime
passes on the Northeastern railroad,
then owned by the state, for certain
right-of-way privileges. The North
eastern was sold tb the Southern, and
the new purchaser/* declined to honor
the passes presented by the Sims fam
ily.
The heirs sought damages from the
state.’ Under a resolution passed by
the last general assembly a board of
Assessors was named, consisting of II.
S. West, J. M. Eberhart and W
Morris.
This board made an award of $769
principal and $406.40 Interest. This
umount will be paid to the following
children of Sherman J. Sims: J. C.,
8. B., R, B., Charles H. J. 81ms, Mrs.

"Governor Torroll Ignored.
The house was called to order by
Speuker Slaton at 9 o'clock Friday
morning, according to adjournment.
After hill call and the reading of
the Journal the house heurd the report
of the committee to arrange plans for
the Inauguration of the governorn Sat
urday. This report was submitted to
the house Thursday, but was not read.
At tho conclusion of the reading of
the report Mr. Hall, of Bibb, precipi
tated a heated debate by declaring
that the committee had Ignored Gov
ernor Terrel! In arranging for the In
augural exercises.
“The outgoing governor should bo
shown as much honor as the Incoming
governor," declared Mr. Hall. “This Is
no time for partisanship. Every mem
ber of this house knows that I have
been politically opposed to Governor
Terrell, but he Hhotild not be Ignored.
He should he allowed to present the
Incoming governor to the president of
the senate, and he should be allowed
to deliver the seal of this state to the
incoming governor.
"And wh >ever heard of the Incoming
governor being escorted to the capitol
by a committee from this house?" ex
claimed Mr. Hall.
“The outgoing governor has been
Ignored In this report and I, as a rep
resentative of this Btate, can not sanc
tion such action."
Mr. Alexander, of DeKalb, a mem
ber of the committee making the re
port, declared that It was far from
the purpose of the committee to Ignore
Governor Terrell In mnklng plans for
the Inauguration of Governor Smith.
Governor's Approval,

gentleman from Bibb," declared Mr.
Alexander, i called on Governor Ter

"Of course he didn’t," declared Mr.
Hall.
“Does the gentleman from Bibb think
that Governor Terrell would like to
discharge this duty?" asked Mr. Al
exander.
“I stand In my place and declare that
Governor Terrell stands ready to dis
charge any duty," fired bark Mr. Hall
as the house rang with applause.
Mr. Alexander then stated that the
committee was willing to make any
changes that were objectionable to the
house, and on motion of Mr. Wright,
of Floyd, action upon the report was
deferred until an amicable adjustment
could b; reached.
After conferring with Governor Ter
rell, ex-Governor Candler and other
state house officers, Mr. Alexander rep
resenting the committee, declared that

Representative Slater, of Brynn
county, 5 ntroduced a similar measure.
WILL ROCK I8LAND
GET CENTRAL 8Y8TEM?
Ultimate control of the Central of
Georgia by the Rock Islnnd and Frisco
Interests with Ryan playing a promi
nent part, Is what Atlanta people, wise
on the rullroad situation, believe the
sale of the Central stock to Oakleigh
Thorne and Marsden J. Perry ;neans.
Oaklelgh Thorne is president'of the
Trust Company of America nnd B. F.
Yoakum, one of the prominent men In
control of the Rock Island and Frisco
Interests, Is a director In the trust
company.
The name of Thomas F. Ryan Is
brought Into the deal because of his
close relations with those who control
things In the two rnilrond systems be
lieved to figure In the sale of the road.
The moving spirits In the Rock Island
nnd Frisco systems are such men as
Moore Brothers, of tin-plate trust,
match trust nnd other trust fame. The
Moores and Read and Schley, who
are with them, nre close to the Sea
board and Ryan, and they have not
been accused of being deadly enemies.
So while Thorne and Perry have
bought the Central’s stock It Is gener
ally believed that the Rock Island and
Frisco systems are figuring behind the
deal and that Thomas F. Ryan will
have a finger In the pie.
And In the meantime Major J. F.
Hanson announces In Macon that the
report that he might lose out Is absurd
and that he will continue heading the
road and will continue work on the
mlllion-dollur shops being erected ut
Macon.
He says the road will be operated as
before and that there will be no change
In Its policy.
New York, June 28.—A morning pa
per here says that the control of the
Central of Georgia railway purchased
on Wednesday by Onklctgh Thorne and
Marsden J. Perry will eventually pass
to the Rock Island-Frisco Interests.
It Is understood that Messrs. Thorne
and Perry purchased the central of
Georgia with an understanding between
themselves and the Rock Island Inter
ests that formal control of the road
should pass to the St. Louis and Son
Francisco after the expiration of the
two years during which time the pres
ent holders of the road have agreed
to keep It as an Independent line.

BRANCH HOSPITAL J
READY TO OPEN
Houston. Vn., June 28.—The trial of
Judge W. C. Loving for the killing of
Theodore Estes was delayed this morn
ing on account of the defence not
having been able to complete their In
structions last night as they had ex
pected to do.
Judge Barksdale discharged the Jury
until 2 o’clock. The expectation of fin
ishing the trial by Saturday night Is
It will
probably be Tuesday before the Jury
render** Its decision.
The undercurrent of feeling between
the two parties In the Loving trial,
which has been very strong all along,
but kept suppressed, bus Increased
largely since the decision of Judge
Barksdale, ruling out the testimony of
Miss Annie Kidd and others. The
friends of tho dead man nre very much
put out that they nre not allowed to
have u chance to clear his name of the
crime of which Judge Loving’s daugh
ter accuses him and last night did not
hesitate to suy that hnd they been
given that chance, the whole aspect of
the trial would have been changed.
On the part of the defense the feel
ing can hardly be said to be any less
strong. Mr. Lee. the leading attorney
for the defense, has openly charged in
a letter written to a friend that the
friends of Estes are using every unfair
means possible; that his witnesses
have been tampered with, and many of
the details of what occurred on tho
memorable drive have been suppressed.
