4 WILL ELECT THEM IN DECEMBER Effort to Have a Snap Elec tion of Officers Was Quashed !f MM TRUSTEES At the Meeting Held Last Week— Carling of Bibb Was the Objector, Lest w<<-k a number of trustees of the *. orgla st*te sanitarium, more commonly known as lunatic asylum, at Milledge ville, passed through Macon en route to their homes from the annual nleeting at the trustees, which they had been attend ing at the sanitarium. The trustees who were pacing through 'Macon were: Dr. E. T; Dickson, of (. linesvllle, the able preai < nt of the board; Hon. James Walker, of aster county; Dr. S. S. Gaulden, of Quitman- Hon. 11. J. Smith, of Mcßae, 1 Dr. Mallory, of Pike. A very impor ■ and interesting meeting was held. It was 'both a quarterly and an annual meet ing. The entin board of ten trustees .were (present. In addition to the five trustees j ntioned above there were in attendance •’. <--srs. Adolph Joseph, of Milledgeville; T. J. Carliug, of .Macon; Eugene Foster, op Augusta; Tom Hunt, of Sparta, and Nat Walker, of Eatonton. By a recent ad of the legislature, the f'i' ..l year of the sanitarium was made to begin September Ist, but nothing was said anout changing the time of the annual election of officials of the sanitarium. In the past this election has ibeen held on the fourth Thursday in October. At tfeti ses sion of the board on last Wednesday it was •proposed that the trustees then and there proceed to elect all the officials of the sanitarium whose term of office is only/me year. Trustee Carling, of Bibb, opposed the election (being held at that time, as no one Jia.l been put on notice that the election was to be held at. the September session of the board, and as the sanitarium is a state institution, he thought that ttie (public should toe informed of the time of the eviction. Mr. Carling moved that the elec tion be postponed until December 21stt, which is the time for the next regular quarterly meeting of the lx>ard. The. board only .have quarterly meetings, and if the election was set for an earlier date the board would have to meet, in a called or special session. The quarterly meetings are always held on the 2lst day of the month, except when the date falls on Sunday. The executive committee,of which Mr. Carling Is chairman, meets on the 20th of each month. Mr. Carling is also the vice presi dent of the board. Trustee Hunt, of Sparta, moved that the election be held at once. He offered his motion as a substitute for Mr. Carling's motion. On the ballot being taken the vote stood four for Mr. Hunt’s motion and five against it. A trustee arose and said that he desired the members of the board to go on record on the motion and he called for an aye and nay vote, and said that in his opinion the president should also vote. •I’rcsi’di nt Dickson said he is always will ing to .go on record on any proposition, and voted no on the Hunt substitute, which made the vote stand four ayes and six nays. A vote was then taken on Mr. Car ling’s motion and It was carried by 6 to 4, and the election of officials will take place on December 21st. This election does not embrace the superintendent or the assis tant physicians, as their terms of office are two yeans, and they have another year to serve. Jnly officials whose terrrMjof of fice is one year are to be elected on De cember 21st. The following officials are to be elected in December. The amount of their annual salaries is appended: Steward, $2,200; assistant steward. $1,500; engineer. $1,500; storekeeper, $1,200; as sistant storekeeper. $500; secretary, $1,200; treasurer. $900; matron. M hen the trustees make their report to the governor at the next session of the legislature will doubtless contain some very important recommendations. The re port promises to be a very interesting document. empire of the south. A Magnificent Publication Upon the South ern Country. * The wonderful progress which the South has been making in all lines of in dustrial, commercial and intellectual de velopment has been most fittingly set forth in a magnificent volume, which, after months of careful preparation, has just been issued by the Southern Railway. This book, the title of which, "The Em pire of the South,” convey® an idea of its character, is beyond question one of the m. • comprehensive and at the same time arastic publications ever issued from the p: s. It contains nearly two hundred octave pages, over four hundred exquisite ly printed illustrations, and makes a pre nation of Southern interests in all lines of human activity, which for thoroughness ot rvatment hits never been approached. The opening chapter of the book under the caption of "The South. Yesterday, To day rd Tomorrow.” discusses in a broad and forcible manner the present and fu ture of the Southern States, treating at considerable length the various interests, such as agriculture, cotton, tobacco, iron, coal, resorts, climate, etc. Following this are chapters devoted to each of the states south of the Ohio and Potomac, and east of the Mississippi rivers. These give, a brief, interesting sketch of 'the early history of each state, and then touch upon all its important activities, showing the progress being made not only by the state itself, but by the leading cities. The author of the work. Mr. Frank Pres brey. is a close student of Southern pro gress, and in the collection and preparation of the intense amount of important infor mation given in the book, has had the co operation of the officials of the Southern Railway. The distribution of this magni ficent volume will do an incalculable amount of practical good in calling .the attention of the world to the South, and the Southern Railway has demonstrated its fa >h in the future of that section by the expenditure of the many thousands of dol lars which this great work must have cost. Those who are fortunate enough to receive a copy of this edition de luxe, which is sent with the compliments of the company, will yr ze it as a most valuable to their libra- WAS DISMISSED.

Must Be Held by People Who Are Going to Florida. Notice is given by the railroads to pas sengers for Florida that they must have health certificates, or they will not be able to enter that state. This is usually the first intimation they have of that fact, and they are at once put to considerable | trouble. Florida has a state board of health, and ■ a very rigid quarantine is now being en forced. All trains entering the state are met by inspector,? and no passengers can enter who are not provided with certifi cates showing they have not 'been within ; any fever infected districts for some days : It seems this fact is not generally known and surprise, and often disgust, is express ed by passengers for that state when they reach the depot in a hurry to catch a train and find they have to get to a physician’s office in a still greater hurry in order to get the certificate and get back to the I train in time.
