FOR IMMIGRANTS
TO THIS STATE
The directors of the Georgia Immi
gration Association met In Savannah
Monday ant) held an all-day session,
which was full of Interest.
The moat Important matter that came
up was the report of a committee of
the board which went to Charleston
Sunday to see the landing of the North
German I.loyd steamship Wltteklnd,
direct from Belgium, with 420 Immi
grants brought over from Belgium and
neighboring countries. The Immigrants
were In charge of Sir. E. J. Wataon,
commissioner of Immigration for South
Carolina, who has been In Europe for
some time working up the party. P. P.
Sargent, United States commissioner
giyieral of Immigration, wax there with
n staff of Inspectors and Interpreters,
who subjected the Immigrants to a
searching Invsstlgatloji. The' result
Was that 93 were refused admission
and seven Were excluded because they
were suffering from trachoma, n dis
ease of the eyes.
The Immigrants had little or no
money, but the opinion of the commit
tee was that It was an excellent lot of
people, very far above.the average of
those who land at Ellis Island. This I*
due to the fact that the state of South
Carolina paid their passage and care
fully selected these people. They were
taken to Columbia, thence to be dis
tributed through the state. Some were
textile operators, some farmers, some
mechanics, etc.
The state of South Carolina only
appropriated a few thousand dollars.
Judge Andy Calhoun is confronted
with a problem.
Puzsle: How can thirty-five rioters
be tried In three weeks before five-
men Juries when the Atlanta criminal
court is allowed a panel of only"twelve
men per week, and when a Juror has
assisted In the trial of one riot east! he
la debarred from sitting on any of the
others?
But the Judge Is not worrying over
the question much, because the lawyers
representing the white men arrested
for rioting on the night of September
22 have elected to sever and If they
had rather stay In jail until the next
term the court has no particular ob
jections,
I. H. Curr, one of the rioters, was
convicted Monday and will be sen
tenced during the latter part of the
week, when the sentences are posted
on whatever cases of this character
can be tried before Saturday.
Carr, who Is an electrician. Inter
ested In the Southern Electro-Plating
Company, admitted on the stand that
he had been down town on the night
of the riot and that he had chased and
struck a negro, hut he said he did It
after hearing a cry of "Stop thief!” and
protested that lie knew nothing of the
riot which was at Its height at that
time. ,

Too much mother-in-law” la a pro
verblal cause of trouble, but the com
mon or garden variety, so the comic
papers would have the world believe,
Is made up of wives’ mothers.
The other kind hae been brought Into
the limelight, however. In the divorce
suit of Mrs. Minnie Hubbard Smith
against Charles E. Smith. The peti
lion for a separation shows that the
couple was married on August 14, 1203,
and that Smith took hla bride to live
at his mother's home at 71 East Baker
street. Mrs. Smith says that her hue
band’s mother fro.n the first cruelly
maltreated her und on several occa.
sions threatened to kill her. The pe.
tltloner claims that she begged her
husband to take her aotnewhere else,
but that he would not do It. so, fear
ing for her life, she left him September
20. 1005.
She asks for a total divorce and the
restitution of her maiden name.
and It la understood that moat of the
money for this movement was fur
nished by the cotton mill companies of
South Carolina, who turned over 926,-
000 to the state treasury to be used by
the bureau of Immigration at Ite dis
cretion.
’’The Georgia Immigration Associa
tion Is watching this movement and
with a great deal of interost,” said W.
G. Cooper, secretary of the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce, and directors
of the association from the Fifth dis
trict, who attended the meeting In Sa
vannah.
"The plan outlined at the first meet
ing of the Georgia Immigration Asso
ciation." he continued, “Is In brief as
fallows:
"To raise by subscription the sum of
150,000 and turn that over to the state
for the use of the bureau of Immigra
tion. with the understanding that the
commissioner of Immigration will send
competent agents abroad to select from
Northern Europe a good class of Im
migrants und bring them to Georgia,
binding them at Suvannab nnd bring
ing them to some central point In the
Interior of the state, thenre to be dis
tributed throughout Georgia.
"It was also proposed Id go before
the legislature at Its next session and
ask the state tn take hold of the sub
ject of Immigration In earnest and
ntakn n sufficient appropriation to
make the bureau nr Immigration a
reality.’’
