The governor has som* forty-flro appointments to make, solicitors of city courts and such. In saveral places, notably Newnsn, Dublin, Swalnesboro and Hawklnsvltle, heated contests are on for the sol'cltorshlp of the city courts. It Is particularly warm over In Coweta, where W. G. Poet, the en- rurobent. Is being opposed by W. I* stalling. The two have filed with the governor near two thousand letters of Indorsement.

Ala., July 20.—The question of organising a commercial club for Opelika has been agitated fdr some time, and from the present outlook It Is probable that such an organization will be effected at an early date. Special to The Georgian. ThomasvlUe, Go., July 20.—Another railroad will likely be built from Thom asvlUe to Sparks In the near future. Captain E. M. Smith, president of the Bank of Thomasvllle, together with several profnlnent ThomasvlUe and Pavo business men, are behind the project and It now seems that the road will be built. If such Is the caso.’ It will go through the best section of the country In the state, touching the Sbwns of Pavo, Adlal, Hemetead, Qullp and ending at Sparks, where connection will be made with the Georgia,. South ern and Florida and the Nashville and Sparks. This will also be Instrumental In opening up a direct line from the timbered section of the state to Au gusta by connecting with the Williams Interests. Another road In addition to the ThomasvlUe and Sparks road Is being surveyed for a line into Florida which will ulUmately reach the gulf. This, with the other railroads, will make ThomasvlUe the centor of a network of railroads that will have through con nections with the gulf, Atlantic and all Inland points. By Trivets Leased Wire. New York, July 20.—Dr. Julian Thomas, formerly of Atlanta, Go., to day In telling of the balloon trip he made with his wife and Hoy Knaben- shue yesterday from the gas works In the Bronx, satdt "Our descent Into One Hundred and Sixth street was only an undesirable Incident. We would never have come to earth If the men below had let the drag rope alone. We shouted to them, but they did not hear us. "While Knabenshue and Mrs. Thom as wore making the crowd understand that Its good Intentions were appre ciated. but that we wanted to ealt and got come to anchor, I Improved the opportunity by climbing Into the rig gtng and setting tny moving picture machine to work. "Wo had lost so much ballast trying to get away from the crowd that wo ascended to a height of 9,000 feet." They finally made n landing Woodeltffe, N. J, after having bumped over housetops, grazed trees, crossed Manhnttnn, and dipped Into the Hud son river several times. Although tho balloonists were constantly In peril, Mrs. Thomas declared the experience was perfectly grand. SENATE MAKES MERRY WITH CRA WF WHEA TLE Y Now and then the sedate senato baa a little fun at tho expense of porno luck* less member, and when they "take off the lid" thoy are worse than a lot of youngsters on the run for the "old swim- min' hole." Thursday they got Senator Crawf Wheat- ley on the gridiron, and proceeded to beat It up until h*» fairly iluix'f.l l’nr about ten mlnntea they had such fun hectoring tho geulnl member from the Thirteenth tlint ne had flnnlly to yell for mercy. It came when Senator Whentley aroso to defend his measure for Incorporating and riving the Audubon Society of Ueorgla cer- nln powers to regulate the slaying of gnme and insectivorous birds In this state. Sena tor Alsohrook hnd Introduced his substi tute, nnd made a splendid argument for Its MMg». "Gentlemen," sold Senator Whentley, "I want you to understand that my bill does not seek to change any existing law or pass any new measure, other than the mere Incorporation of the Andabon Society of Georgia." "Did I understand tho senator to say that this bill simply Incorporates the so ciety?" artlessly queried Senator Candler. "\es, sir." "Than doesn't the aenstor know that wo haven’t nny authority to Incorporate here?" That fluatered the eloquent speaker con* shlernhly, but he# forged bravely nh<>n.l. and rxpiaincd that It dbl glvo certain rights nnd power to tho society. Then Senator Dunn heartlessly bowled him over by rending that section which cm- powers game wardens to search homes or cold storage plants for any excess of game. Dismayed by this sort of badgering, but gallantly sticking to his guns. Senator Wheatley continued to defend his bill, while he was cnlllnded with a running tiro of queried from all parts of the chamber. Then he threw up bis hands and despair ingly cried: "i want tho senators to understand that this Isn't my old MU, anyway." And such a shout of laughter and ap plause went up In that chamber as has not been heard there for a long while. "I'ra said all I want ta, and mova that wo vote now," he concluded, ns he plumped Into hla chair, and wiped hln moist brow. Then they proceeded to pass the Alto- brook substitute.

BIG STRIKE IN PACKINGTOWN-JURGIS PROVES FALSE TO UNION Stock Yards and Surrounding Territory Turned Into a Veritable Hades. CHAPTER XXVI (Contlnusd). "But—but"—stammered Jurgta. Ha Md somehow taken It for granted that he Bhnuld go out with hie union. "The packers need good men, and J*«d thsm bad," continued the other, znd they’ll treat a man right that stands by them. Why don’t you take your chnnee and tlx yourself?” "But,” said Jurgts, "how could X ever hs of any use to you—In politico7" 'You couldn’t be It, anyhow,” said Scully, abruptly. ")Vhy not7” asked Jurgls. Roll, man!" cried the other. "Don’t you know you're a Republican? And do you think I’m always going to elect Rnmhlicans? My brewer has found ?"} already how we served him. and them is the deuce to pay." Jurgts looked dumbfounded. He had never thought of that aspect of It be- t°re ; "I could bo a Democrat," he said. '•*." responded the other, "but not right away; a man can’t change hla Politics every day. And, besides, I aunt need you—there’d be nothing for >ou to do. And It’s a long time to elec tion (iny, anyhow; and what are you suing to do meantime?" l thought I could count on you,’ wgan Jurgls. "7”’" responded Scully. "So you could—I never yet went bock on a friend. But Is It fair to leave the Job { sot you and come to me for another? i nave had a hundred fellows after me today, ond what can I do? I’ve put •e'enteen men on the city pay roll to V r «‘s ,hta one week, and do you tnink i can keep that up forever? It “ouldn t do for me to tell other men . 1 tell you, but you've taeen on the inside, and you ought to bare sense •hough to see for yourself. What hare You to gain by a striker i hadn't thought," said Jurgta Exactly,- said Scully, "but you’d W ter. Take my word for It, the strike -hi be over In a few days, and the men win be beaten; and meantime :“ sl Ypu get out of it will belong to Do you seer Diamonds. ^Ve are talking Diamonds nearly every day now, be- eause we have something un usual in stock and in values tor you. . A new and magnificent importation, bought abroad first hand, is the basis of °ur Diamond talk. G'ome in and see these Kt'UlOS. M a i e r And Jurgls saw. He went back to the yards, and into tho workroom. The men had left a long line of hogs In various stages of preparation; and tho foreman was directing the feeble efforts of a score or two of clerks and ste nographers and office boys to finish up the Job and get them Into the chilling rooms. Jurgls w< ■ • -•-.'light up to him and announced: “I have come back to work, Mr. Murphy." "Tha boss’ face lighted up. "Good man!” ho cried. "Come ahead!" "Just a moment," said Jurgls, check Ing his enthusiasm. “I think I ought to get a little more wages.” "Yes," replied the other, "of course. What do you want?" Jurgls had debated on the way. His nerve almost failed him now, but. he clenched his hands. 'T think I ought to have >2 a day,” he said.” "All right,” said the other, promptly, and before the day was out our friend discovered that the clerks and stenog raphers snd office boys were getting 66 a day, and then he could have kicked himself. On the first day of his Ilf* as a strike-breaker Jurgls quit work earpr, and In a spirit of bravado he challenged three men of his acquaintance to go outside and get a drink. They ac cepted, and went through tb* big Hal. sted street gate, where several polios men were watching, and also some union pickets, scanning sharply those who passed In and out. Jurgls and his companions went south on Hoisted street, past the hotel, and then sud denly half a doxen men started across the street toward them and proceeded to argue with them concerning the er ror of their ways. As the arguments were .not taken In the proper spirit they wont on to threats; suddenly ..ri ot them Jerked off the hat of one of the four and flung It over the fence. The man started after It, and then, as a cry of "Scab!" was raised and a dozen persons cam* running out of sa loons and doorways, a second man’s heart failed him and he followed. Jur gls and the fourth stayed long enough :o give themselves the satisfaction of it quick exchange of blows, and then they, too, took to their heel* and fled back of the hotel and Into tba yard* again. Meantime, of course, policemen were coming on a run, and as a crowd gath ered, other poltc* got excited and sent In a riot call Jurgls knew nothing of this, but went back to "Packers' ave nue,” and In front of the "Central Time Station" be saw on* of his compan ions, breathless and wild with excite ment, narrating to an ever-growing throng bow the four bad been attacked and surrounded by a howling mob, and bad been nearly torn to pieces. While be stood listening, smiling cynically, several dapper young men stood by with note books In their bands and It was not more than two hours later that Jurgts saw newsboys running about red and black letters six Inches high: VIOLENCE IN THE STOCK YARDS) STRIKE-BREAKER8 SUR ROUNDED BY FRENZIED MOB! If he had been able to buy all of the newspapers <.r the fnlte.l States the next morning he might have discovered that his heel-hunting exploit was be ing perused by aomo two-score millions of people, and had sorved ns a text for editorials In half the staid and solemn business men’s newspapers In NM Inn.l. Jurgls was to see more of this as time .passed. For the moment, hts work being over, he was free to ride Into the city, by a railroad direct from tho yards, or else to spend the night In a room where cots had been laid In rows. He chose tho latter, but to his regret, for all night long gangs of strike breakers kept arriving. As very few of the better class of workingmen could be got for such work, these specimens of the new American hero contained an assortment of the criminals and thugs of the oity, betides negroes and the lowest foreigners—Greeks, Rouma nians, Sicilians and Slovak*. They had been attracted more by the prospect of disorder than by the big wages; and they made the night hideous with sing ing and carousing, and only went to sleep when the time came for them to get up to go to work. In the morning, before Jurgls had finished hi* breakfast "Pat" Murphy ordered him to one of the superintend ents, who questioned him as to his ex perience In the work of tb* killing room. His heart began to tbump with excitement, for he dhrlntd Instantly that his hour had como—that he was to be a boss I Some of the foremen were union members, and many who were not had gone out with the men. It was In the killing department that the packers had been left most In the lurch, and pre cisely here that they could least afford It; tba smoking and canning and call ing of meat might wait, and all the by-products might be wasted- but fresh meats must be had, or the res. aurants and hotels and brownstone louses would feel the pinch and then "public opinion" would take a startling turn. An opportunity such as this would nqt come twice to a man; and Jurgls seized 1L Yes, he knew the work, the whole of It, and he could teach It to others. But If he took the Job and R ve satisfaction he would expect to ep It—they would not turn him off at tho end of the strike? To which the superintendent replied that he might trust Durham’s for that—they proposed to teach these unions a les son, and most of all tho** foremen who had gone back on them. Jurgls would receive |S a day during the strike and (26 a week after It was settled. So our friend got a pair of "slaughter pen" boot* and “Jeans;" and flung him self at the task. It was a weird sight, there on the killing beds—a throng of stupid black negroes and foreigners who could not understand a word that was said to them, mixed with pale- faced, hollow-chested bookkeepers and clerks, half fainting from the tropical heat and the alckeplng stench of tb* fresh blood—and all struggling to dress a dozen Or two of cattle In the same place where twenty-four hours ago, the old killing-gang had be-n speeding with their marvelous precision, turning out "10 carcasses event hour. The negroes and the "toughs" from II Jurgls saw neweooy* running .odoui -roe negroes arm me toughs" from cerkele. with armfuls of newspapers; printed In the Levee did not want to work, and every few minutes some of thorn would f.-.'I "bilged t.. rfllr.. nnd recuperate. In n roui'li- .if .Iny- Inirhnm X- Company had eloctrlo fans up to cool off the rooms for them, and even vouchee for them to rest on; and meantlmo thoy could go out 011.1 Ilnd II Blind)' corner and take a "snooze," nnd ns thero wns no place for any one In particular, and no system. It might bo hours beforo their bo** discovered them. Ae for tho poor office employees, they did their best, moved to it by terror: thirty of them had .bean "fired” In a bunch that ilret morning for refusing tn i-rvr, ho- aldes ne number of women clerks and typewriters who had declined to act as waitresses. It was such a force as this that Jur gls had to organize. He did his bent, flying here and there, placing them In rows and showing them the tricks; he had never given an order In hi* life before, but he had taken enough of them to know, and he soon fell into the spirit of It, and roared and stormad like any old stager. He had not tha most tractable pupils, however. "Hee byar, boss,” a big blnck "buck” would begin, "tf you doan like de way Ah does dls Job you kin git somebody else to do It.” Then a crowd would gather and listen, muttering threats. Aftsr the first meal nearly all tin- st.-d knives had been missing, and now every n.gro had one, ground to a flno point, hidden In his boolz^^^^^^^^^H |There was no bringing order out ofl such a chaos, Jurgls soon discovered;! and he fell In with the spirit of the thing—there was no reason why he should wear himself out with shouting. If hides and guts were slashed and rendered useless there was no way of tracing It to any one; and If a man lay off and forgot to como hack there was nothing to fee gained by seeking him, for all the rest would quit tn thei meantime. Everything went during the strike, and the packers paid. Before long Jurgls found that the custom of resting had suggested to some alert minds tho possibility of regl.terlng at more than on* place end earning more than on* 66 a day. When ha caught a man at this he "fired” him, but It chanced to be In a quiet corner, and the man tendered him a 110 bill and a wink, and he took than. Of course be fore long this custom ipri-nd, Slid Jur gls was toon making quit# a good In come from IL In the face of handicaps such as these the packers counted themselves lucky If they could kill off the cattle that had been crippled In transit and the hogs that had developed disease. Frequently, In the course of a two or three days' trip. In hot weather and without water, som* hog would develop cholera and die; and the rest would st uck him before he had ceased kicking, would be nothing of him bone* If all the hogs In thla carload were not killed at once they would soon be down with the dread disease, and there would be nothing to do but to make them Into lard. It was the same with cattle that were gored and dying or were limping with broken bones stuck through their flesh—they must be killed, even If the broken and buy er* and superintendent* bod to take off their coat* and help drive and cut an.l ■kin them. And meantime, agents of the packers were gathering gangs of negroes In the country districts of the far Houth, promising them 66 a day and board, and being careful not to mention there was a strike: already carloads of them were on the way, with special rates from the railroads, and all traffic ordored out of tho way. Many towns and cities were taking advantage of tho chance to clear out their JnTls and workhouses—In Detroit the magis trates would release every man who agreed to leave town within twenty- four hours, nnd ngents of the packers were In the court room to ship them right. And meantlmo tralnlnade of supplies were coming In for their nr commodattnn, Including boer nnd wills ky, so that they might not ho tempted to go ouuldo. They hired thirty young girl* In Cincinnati to "pock fruit,” and when thoy arrived they put them at work canning corned beef, and put cou for them to sleep In a public hall way, through which tho men passed. As tho gangs came In day and night, under the escort of squads of police, they stowed them away In unused workrooms and storeroom* and la th* car sheds, crowded so closely together that the rota touched. In soma places they would use the same room for eat ing nnd Bleeping, and at night the men would put their cot* upon the tables, to keep away from th* swarms of rata But with all their best efforts th* packers were demoralised. Ninety per cent of the men had walked out; and they faced the task of complete ly remaking their labor force—and with the price of meat up 10 per cent, and the publlo clamoring for a settlement. Thoy made nn offer to submit th* wholt question at Issu* to arbitration; and at tha snd of tan days th* unions aecsplsd IL and tho strike was called off. It was agreed that all the men were to be re-employed within forty- five days, and that there was to be "no discrimination against union men." This was an anxious time for Jurgls. If th* men were taken back "without discrimination," h* would lose hla pres ent piece. He sought out the auperin- tendent. who smiled grimly and bade Mm "wait and see." Durham's strike breakers war* few of thsm leaving. Whether or not tho "settlement" was simply a trick of the packers to gain time, or whether they really expected to break th. .trikp and crippt. the union, by th. plan, candot be .old; but that night there went out from the office of Durham A Co. a telegram to all th# big packing center., "Em ploy no union l.ader*." And In the morning, when the twenty thousand men thronged Into tb* yards, with their dinner palls and working clothes, Jur< gls stood Mar the door of tha bog. trimming room, whs re be bad worked before the strike, and saw a throng of eager men, with a score or two of po licemen watching them; and he saw a superintendent com* out and walk down tb* line, and pick out man after man that pleased him; and one after another came, and there wen some men up near the head of th* line who were never nicked—they being union stewards and delegates, and tn. men Jurgls had heard making speech** at the meetings. Each time, of course, there were louder murmuring* and an grier looks Over where the cattle butchers were waiting Jurgls beard shout, and saw a crowd, ana ha hur ried there. One big batcher, who was president of the Parking Trades Coun cil, had been passed over live times, and tb* men were wild with rage; they had appointed a commute* of three to go In and see the superintendent, and tha committee had mad* three attempts —and sack time th* police had dabbed thsm back from the door. Then there were yell* and boom, continuing until at last th« superintendent cam* to the door. "We all go back or none of us do!" cried a hundred voices. And tha other shook his list at them, and ■houted, "You went out of here llko rattle, and Ilka cattlo you'll come back!" Then suddenly the big butcher presi dent leaped upon a pllo of stones and yelled: "It’e off, boys. We'll all of us quit again!" And so the rattle butch ers declare ! a new strike on the spot; and, gathering their members from the other plnnts, where tho same trick hnd boen played, they marched down Pack- era' avenue, which was thronged with a dense mss* of workers, cheering wild ly. Men who had already got to work -.11 ili>. Killing I...

There was q trite A fifihinM ftSM to Packlngtnwn after this—the place was * seething caldron of passion, sad the "scab” who ventured Into It farad bad ly. Thar* were on* or two os OHM incidents each day, the newspapers de tailing them, and always blaming them upon th* unions Yet ten years before, whan there were no unions in r.i. king- town, thero waa a strike, and national troops ha4 to bo called, and there were pitched battle* fought at nlghL by tho light of blazing freight trains. Pack- Ingtown was always a center of vio lence; In "Whisky Point," where there were a hundred saloons and nn* glue factory, there waa always fighting, and always more of It In hot weather. Any ono who htd taken th* trouble to con sult the station bous* blotter would have found that there was leas vio lence that rammer than ever before— and this while twenty thousand men were out of work, and with nothing to do all day but brood upon bitten wrongs.
