President Pollock is endeavoring to give notice to every member of the association of the change, and he asks that all the papers in the state make the tact known at once. Arrangements have been made with Manager Parker, of the Wigwam, to en l tertain three or four hundred delegates, and Manager Parker is today arranging with President Smith, of the Indian Spring and Flovilla railroad, to haul this ' im mense crowd at a special rate and with a special schedule. President Pollock announces that the Wigwam has made a rate of $1.50 per day for delegates, and that the railroads have made a rate of a fare and one-third for the round trip, on the certificate plan. He . further says, in announcing the change to Indian Spring. “The accommodations are | excellent, the surroundings are delightful and the situation is in the ce.ntral part of the state.

It is a Bank Holiday, but No Special Pro gram Arranged. Today is a legal holiday in Georgia, be ing the birthday of President Jefferson Davis of the Confederacy. There will be no special celebration of it here. The matter has not been mentioned among the Confederate veterans, with a view to anything of the kind, which one of the veterans remarked, is included in the celebration of Memorial day. All the banks are closed, as it is a state holiday, and other public institutions, not national in character, are probably observing it as such. The Daughters of the Confederacy are celebrating. It was expected that there would be some special program arranged for the oc casion by the Daughters of the Confed eracy and this would have been the case had it not been for the fact that the war has absorbed everything else.

BERND & C 0., 450 Cherry Street - Macon, Ga RAILROADS IN BIBB’S POLITICS A Call Upon the Voters of the County to Rally Against Them. 'Editor Evening News: My Dear Sir— I take a >feiw moments' from a sick room to write you thanking you for your edi torial in. yesterday’s issue. It ought and no doubt did touch a warm chord in every 'patriotic citizen’s heart. Wfao is the South ern railway? Who controls it? Are they Georgians or Wall street bond holders? Are they more interested in the prosperity and welfare of the .people of Georgia than her citizens in Georgia? (Are they more familiar 'With the wants and necessities of the people than the other great interests of the state? Why are they so anxious to control and manipulate the ‘laws of the state? Are they interested more than the merchants and wage earners and produc ers in having good laws? Do they obey those on the statute books of Georgia bet • ter than the masses and producers vK the state? M ell, let us see. It is the only interest in the state that we have to keep a special railroad commisison at an expense of over SIO,OOO per year to prpt&ct the people from their oppresions. Do they pay their share of the taxes to support the government? Well, let us see. All the various and immense railroads in this ‘county with their immense and valuable terminal facilities only pay 510,500 taxes in the county. The Southern, with its 33 miles of rail way in this county, and valuable terminal facilities actually pays $2,183.39 taxes, about or less than one-third what it should pay. Os course, they ought. This mammoth interest ought not control the politics and dictate the policies of the great county of B'i : bb. Bibb county pays into the tax treas ury $200,000 taxes. The Southern railway pays $2,183.39, about one-hundredth part Os the taxes. Oh, yes, those who pay one hundredth part of the taxes, airhough they are aliens and foreigners, ought to con trol and manipulate the grand old county of Bibb. Oh. yes. they want good laws. They made those now in the constitution. The wisest one of all says that no road shall buy or afbsord another to prevent compe tition, and when brought before the court they dodge and evade and try to deceive the courts and say competition still exists. \nd yet there is not a fruit grower on the line of the Southern or Central that is not forced now to accept the routing by the railroads ci bis fruit, and forced to use the : ' -e cars. That these roads have dickered and traded with all other routes being bound by this giant monopoly. All other refrigerator lines, although they are here now begging to come and offering lower rates. arc bound. This is competition, in deed! Oh. yes, they want good laws, and when your .patriotic citizens offer to neg lect their business and at a great loss and expense sacrifice their time to go to the legislature to make such laws as will re dound to the best interest of the railroads and wage earners and commercial interest and producers all alike, and that will re dound to the upbuilding of our grand old state, these sharks and railroad wreckers and bondholders and-aliens come and say: Oh. you Georgians, you people of Bibb county, don,t know who to send to the legislature. You do not know who will be most anxious to make good laws. You are not in it, and from their little bank rooms in Wall street they assume to say who shall represent us and touch the button and the (work goes on. .Patriots of Bibb, will you stand such as this? Why have they selected your own county man—the plain, honest, patriotic, noble, (big-hearted Joe Hall, for the slaughter? 'Will you stand this, Bibb freemen? Who knows Joe Dall best—the people of Bibib, who have known him from /boyhood, or those shark bondholders in their little back room in Wall street? Is Joe Hall competent? Is he honest? Is he patriotic? Is there one man that doubts this? If you believe it. rally to him, pm triots of Bibb and teach this Wall street gang that they cannot corrupt Bibb county voers Ib.v reward or the hope thereof. (Respectfully, IM'AiRSHA’LL J. HATCHER.
