While the committee was in session Mi.
Buford Davis. who is a member of the
eommiUee, came in. He asked if the votes
east in the different precincts for governor
direct had been counted. When told that
they had jiot he said that he would enter
Ids protest against the count. The elec
tion, he eaid. hail not been conducted in
accordance with the rules laid down by
the state committee and as a member-of
the commit lee he had entered his protest
at the time the committee took action
contrary to the instructions of the state
committee and he proposed to fight it to
Ithe bitter end.
Chairman Ware, of the committee, sa'd
that the matter had been discussed in the.
committee and had been decided, he
thought, but Mr. Davis said that i. had
not been decided so far as he was con
cerned.
He appealed to Mr. Carling, as a mcm
tber of the state committee, to stand by the
action of that committee, of which he was
a member, and in which he had taken ac
tion looking to the passing of ,h? rules
which the Bibb committee had ,»e?:i tit to
ignore.
Air. Carling said that he was not there
to stand by what the state committee had
done, but toy what Che co .imitiee from
Bibb saw tit to do. He was. ho said,
strictly a home rule anan and he would
stand by any action the committee of Bibb
might take so long as he thought that ac
tion was right. .
Mr. Davis then entered a written pro
test which was put on file.
The election yesterday passed off about
as quietly and as good-hu'moredly as ever
did an election in this county.
The day was full of surprises too. and
the night brought them on in large num
bers.
That is to say it brought two out of
three surprises to those who have been
figuring out the slate on paper to their
own saiisfattion.
The election of A. W. Lane to the legis
lature was the big surprise of the day.
Not that Mr. Lane was not thought to be
eminently fitted for the position, but that
the combination against rather than the
combination in favor of the other fellow
was thought to be too strong.
Mr. Ixtne himself thought it was too
strong, ami a little after ten o’clock last
night he had about given up the ship to
Mr. Kt id. An hour arfter this it *was ap
parent that his lead was too big to be
overcome and that the courthouse vote
had elected him.
Mr. l ane’s race was a surprise and an
upsetting of all precedents, as he ran
without the support of the administration
and was opposed by the saloon element
and others who had reason to believe that
Mr. Lane was not calculated to bo their
friend .
His election was a big compliment to his
strength in politics and before the com
munity.
The next surprise to a number of people
came in the election </f Col. J. H. Hall.
Everyone thought that Col. Hail ought to
i win and ev.n that element that fought
him most bitterly—the railroads —were
I ashamed of themselves. He was fought
i tooth and toenail by the railroads. They
i spared no effort to compass his defeat and
it. was feared by his friends that the com
, bination against him would be too much.
! lie made a powerful fight, and when he
| came from the Godfrey district with a
clear lead of a hundred votes it was know
j that he was a winner, and a wail went up-
I front the headquarters ot the railroads on
! the comer of MuWberry and Second streets.
) But they had already bought their
| mourning in that simp and a tear or two
, more or «a few more of crape could
s not make them look more funereal.
They had failed in the achievement of
their object in life and they feared that
the jig was up and the boss might close
up the shop. He might do it yet.
The election of Hall and Lane gives
Bi'bib county two representatives who do
not live in the city aud it gives Vine
villi* a strong place in the representation
of the city.
•M.r. Roland Ellis will rr-piesept the city
I of .Macon in the next legislature.
No more pyrotechni'cal race has ever
I been run in this county than that which
I was made by Mr. Roland Ellis yesterday.
I It was a brilliant exhibition, and as one
i of the younger members of the bar in this
I county aji/l in the state Mr. Ellis has good
cause to feel proud and the county is to
) be congratulated.
It was in the defeat of Mr. Reid that
'there was some cause for sympathy. But
sympathy is something that a defeated
candidate does not want. Mr. Reid comes
out o's the race, however, feeling that de
} feat has been lightened 'by the high com
pliment that was paid him in the very
heavy vote that ho received.
Mr. Cooper made a good race and in Mr.
Craig’s race he was slaughtered in the
home of his friends.
Tite state election had no surprises in
it so far as this county is concerned. It
had no surprises in it so far as the whole
state is concerned, but the defeat of the
. Atkinson crowd gave renewed satisfaction.
The defeat of Spender Atkinson was the
i defeat of AA’.Y. Atkinson, for it was largely
j W. Y. Atkinson who defeated Spencer At-
I kinson.
Mr. Berner’s race was a hopdless one
from the start and no one realized that
more than Mr. Berner. It is not at all
probable that he had any idea that he was
running a winning race, 'but the states
man from Monroe has other things in
j sight and he has not hurt himself in the
I present race unless it can be shown olear
| iy that he has combined with Atkinson in
| which lease the evidence of bis folly will
kill him as dead as it is possible to slay a
man.

Among the many expenses borne by
railroad companies the ice bill figures
quite prominently. For instance, on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad it is expected
it will lake over 50,000 tons of ice this
year to meet the requirements of the ser
vice. The greater portion is used in con
ic tion with shipment of perishable goods,
the balance in the passenger train service.
A great deal of ice is put up by the com

Editor Macon Evening News:
From private knowledge and the careful
consideration of a recent article in The
News I regret to notice the present- unsat
isfactory local sanitary consditions,
amounting almost to an epidemic of. ty
phoid fever. As one who was and is in a
position to have at least a slight under
standing of the jntents“of that system and
ipethods employed, whilst a study for some
years of sanitary engineering and science
leads me to hope that at this time 1 am
warranted in asking space in your colure,ns
for a general discussion of the subject in
(he hope of offering some information and
thqt may be of service.
In a recent article you have stated that
a careful chemical analysis of your local
water supply has been made, determining
authoritatively its sanitary purity. From
my knowledge of the local conditions. I
feel sure that this is correct, and that the
waters of the Ocmulgee are objectionable
simply from the large amount of inorganic
matter, such as clay or silt, suspended in
solution, and are in no wise responsible
for the prevailing troubles. TJiis being
true, the next consideration would be local
wells,’effected by subsoil polution,. Tn the
last few years, such water supply has been
almost entirely hUinJened, and thjs may
be eliminated from thf discussion. There
remains then, as a cause for sanitary dis
turbance, the at.mosiphe.ric polution.
througU surface evaporation or sewer
gasses. As to the former, the character
of the population within the district affect
ed makes the former cause one scarcely to
be considered, all visible refuse, domestic
waste and kitchen offal, being promptly
removed by-scavenger carts assuming the
correctness of |he propositions, pur inves
tigation narrows down, and the evidence
seems to point conclusively to atmospheric
poisoning fro.ni sewer gasses,
In pointing tp this c-pnclustoii. it should
be without sensational effect, or an at
tempt to show that the city, in its pro
gressive efforts and the expenditure of a
very considerable sum. has squandered its
means in a vain endeavor, for statistics
in overwhelming number can be produced
to show the benefits of and necessity for a
proper system of -sanitary sewers, and in
the main, the system designed for Macon
by the eminent sanitarian, Mr. Samuel >E.
Cray, is certainly according to the most
modern practice, i'ts general principles be
ing a separate water carriage, gravity dis
posal of domestic waste.
That such a system, proper!}’ operated
and constructed, will prove efficient, as I
have said, statistics are innumerable.
In a paper entitled “'lnfluence of sewer
age and water supply on the death rate Ip
cities.” Irwin F. 'Smith, a recognized au
thority, writes, “In the consideration of
this subject, the g.ni’rai proposition which
I wish to lay doiwn, and which appear to
hip to be clearly deducible from the data
at my disposal are as follows:
Typhoid fever and cholera decrease In
proportion as a city fs well sewered. This
may be laid down as a fundamental tirop
osition to which there is no exception. .
My reason for selecting typhoid fever Is
that, although the nature of the typhoid
poison is yet 'in dispute, we now under
stand .very clearly the manner in which
the disease is spread. Another reason is
the gravity of the mortuiary tax levied bv
typhoid fever. This’will be pt once ap
parent if we consider the statistics of this
disease, etc.”
In your article before referred to, your
conclusions ?eem to point to the soil pipe
or curb line ventilation as the -possible
cause of the trouble? In order to discuss
this point, a clear understanding of the
principles involved is essential, and upon
these principles I will deal as briefly as
consistency will permit.
The sanitary requirements of sewage
disposal demand that the domestic waste
be removed -as rapidly and thoroughly as
possible from the habitations to a remote
“outfall.” To accomplish this, within
bounds, the smaller the conduit, the more
rapid and effectual the removal, and the
more potent the cleaning and scouring ef
fect. As the volume varies to a consider
able extent, for certain days and for cer
tain hours of each twenty-four, the usual
practice is to calculate for a half bore
discharge, in other words, that the pipe run
half full as its mean capacity, allowing
for unexpected increase and ..flushing,
sewage in transit, occupying one-half of
the pipe capacity, generates what is com
monly known as “sewer gigs,” jts compo
nents being sulphurated hydrogen, car
buretted hydrogen,- nitrogen, amnionium
sulphide and foetid organic vapor, having
a particular affinity for micro-organisms,
known as bacteria, and following wherever
the gas penetrates. The molodorous and
deadly combination occupies the Other half
of the pipe system, and upon its proper
disposal is dependent the effectiveness of
the sewer systfim.
That ‘the effluent may be’promptly re
moved before decomposition is effected and
deleterious gasses produced, the steepes-t
grade or flow lines obtainable are estab
lished in designing the system and the
natural velocity thus secured is augmented
by systematic flushing. The effect of this
flush or unusual accumulation of water
within the pipe lines, produces a piston
like effect uppp the gases, driving them
with a rush before it, and if a proper ven
tilation has not been arranged, the effect
is to force the water traps within the
dwellings and to disseminate the noxious
vapors, no<t infrequently in bed ’chambers
themselves.
The sewer system as designed by Mr.
Gray, provided for a full and free ventila
tion of the main sewers, by perforated
man-hole covers, permitting a constant
.circulation between the lower anQ higher
portions of the system, and even, as a
rule, between blocks at street intersec
tions where the great dilution of the
sewer gasses *with th? atmospheric air,
prevented the diffusion of enthetic- germs,
and quickly nutralized their capacity for
harm. Why this system of ventilation was
deliberately ignored I am unable to state,
i The sewer plans will show that such an
I arrangement was contemplated.
i The curb line or interior ventilation
| complained of by you in the article al
j hided to, is entirely proper if coupled with
| correct sanitary plumbing within the
■ dwelling; and in a/c-orda-rx'e with the best
j practice. It should, hotwever. be located
i ae the street curb, where possible, making
I an independent vent on the line of the soil
I pipe, front the sewer to the building. This
1 soil pipe should lead, without trap, pre
; ferafely along bhe outside of the building
| to the open air above. The system of
house plumbing adopted since the con
struction of the sewers is unfamiliar to
me. and so far as I know to the contrary,
may be as stated.
The volume c 4 discharge in a city as
large as Macon is nearly constant and as
I the system is not intended to provide for
the storm water, the question of drought
is pot pertinent except that possibly the
| quantity of subsoil water, inrpqssjVlp to
I prevent in percolating, dilutes the effluent
. to a less degree in "Phe lower sections of
the city. Having disposed of the question
of ventilation, that of flushing regularly,
I at jptermittept intervals should be care-

fully Inquired into, for it is the .province
of the hush to cleanse the interior of the
pipe, removing all organic growths and
penmitting the free and rapid discharge of
the sewage. Owing to the certainty of an
automatic device, of which there are quite
a number .with regular and continued ser
vice as guarantee of effectiveness, this
method of flushing is given the preference.
I have never known whether any one of
these were installed at the terminal
branches. I am not positive whether Mr.
Gray’s plan was adopted or whether the
city engineer decided upon some
device of his own. The question
should be investigated by the proper
authorities ami if certain methods have
not been provided, they should be at onc,\
and in the meanwhile a generous use 01
a near by hydrant regularly used as a
temporary expedient. Each terminal, at
which. I know man-holes, if not flush
tanks have been provided, should be filled
and Hushed with a disinfectant, and I
would recommend 30 to 50 grains of lime
to three grains of herring brine per gallon
of flush or disinfectant solution. The ac
tion recommended can only be carried out
by the local authorities, but each individ
ual house-holder owes it a duty tp himself
and to his neighbor to see to it that his
individual connection is ip good order and
preperly disinfected and flushed; this can
be accomplished with slight cost or trouble
by adding in the closet 'hopper and ele
vated tank a solution of copper sulphate
and carbolic acid, or the simpler solution
of lime and herring brine, and then pu]l
. ing .the plupge and allowing the tank to
flush automatically. This should be re
peated at regular intervals or whenever
unpleasant odors are noticed.
