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 pany in its own ice houses, but as the pant winter has been so warm a very large pro portion will have to be purchased. ' The passenger department of the Balti more and Ohio railroad is quite well pleas ed with the number of special parties bandied during the mowth of May. The total number carried, exclusive, of regular and Decoration day travel, was 2a,663. Fully 19.000 of these were troops en route to Falls Church and Chickamauga. The Baltimore and Ohio management is con gratulating itself that this heavy travel was handled without delay to the regular business and without an accident of any sort.

MACON N!WS TUESDAY EVENING. JUNE 7’7898 GIVES HIS VIEWS ON TH£SEWERS A Competent Engineer Has Something to Sav on Ma con’s System, NOT 81 GRATS PLANS He Says Were They Built But Some Important Matters Were Not Attended To. * 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- FIRE SALE! To-morrow morning at 7 O’clock, the Stock of the Roch ester Shoe Co. will be on Sale at the Old Stand, E. B. HARRIS, Purchaser. 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. Civil Engineer. The he- v „ Georgia, Bibb County.
