A series of raids by plain clothes

their doors. Pat Kyne, manager of

MULE IS MISTAKEN FOR
BURGLAR, KICKS ABOUT
IT, INJURES MAN BADLY
Arthur Butts of Milledgeville Is Now
in Critical Condition.
Milledgeville, Ga., Jan. 12.—Arthur
Butts, a local merchant, is in a crit
ical condition from injuries 'ol' the
face and head as the result of being
kicked by a mule.
The accident cccurred early this
morning when Mr. Butts heard some
disturhance outside his house and
went to investigate, TUpon his re
turn his wife asked him some ques
tions and on receiving no ccherent
answer, she discovered her husband
in a practically unconscious state and
bleeding from his nose and ears and
a bad wound on his head.
Since he has nct bheen able to
make an explanation of how the ac
cident occurred, it is believed tha!
he was kicked by a trespassing mule
that he walked near in the dark
ness. Mule tracks near a pool of
blood and from cother signs on the
ground seems to indicate that the
accident happened in this queer wziy
Attendant physicians are anxious
over his condition and the fact that
conscicusness has not been fully re
stored, leads them to believe that
his injuries are serioous.

I'acts of Vital Interest to
Everybody in Georgia
Socialism Will Take Farms
After Public Utilities
Are Swallowed Up
The Municipal League of Georgia
says:
“From 1910 to 1919, 310,000
horse power were developed by
the Hydro-Electric Power Com
misgion of Ontario.”
The Real Facts About Ontario
The actual development by the Hy
dro-Electric Power Commission in
Ontario from 1910 to 1919 was less
than 60,000 horse power.
The Municipal League of Georgia |
has much to say about the number of
farms in Ontario using the service of
the Hydro-Electric Commission of On- ‘
tario. |
The facts are that some farmers in |
Ontario, living within or close to |
fowns or villages are using electric |
service just as they are in Georgia, |
but that electric service cannot be
furnished to farmers generally be
cause of the expensive machinery nec
esrary “o make high tension electrie
current available on isolated farms. |
Promises Can’t Be Carried Out |
None of the promises made by the ]
Municipal League of Georgia to put |
electric service on the farms can be |
carried out. These false promises ’
are written simply to get your sup
port of their raid on Georgia’s treas
ury. I
Georgia Companies Ahead '
of Ontario ‘
The electric companies in the |
United States are devoting‘
continuovs and persistent ef
fort to working out a practicable plan 1‘
of reaching the farm house with elee
tric service at a reasonable cost, but |
the problem has not yet been solved.
The companies in Georgia are far
ahead of the Ontario public-owned
body, and second to none in the United
States in the character of equipment
and quality of service rendered. |
The Municipal League of Georgia
says:
“The public utilities such as gas,
water, licht and power plants are dif
ferent. In them the property of the
public is used.”
| This statement is untrue, and is an
other adroit appeal for your support
!in their proposed raid on the Georgia
Treasury.
~ Tiuge Cost Will Increase Taxes
The facts are that every piece of
property used by a water, gas, light
or power plant must be purchased and
paid for. The water in the streams
cannot be used to generate electricity
unless heavy investments are made in
dams, machinery and transmission
lines. The land that is flocded and
the right of way for the transmission
lines must be hought and paid for.

Your farm may be called public
property next on the plea that it pro
drces food and clothing which ars
