MINISTERS WANT STATE PROHIBITION AT A MEETING OF EVANGELICAL MINISTERS LIQUOR QUES TION WAS DISCUSSED. , About 50 of the ministers of the evan gelical churches met in the basement of Trinity Methodist church at 11 a. m. Mon ward Avenue Baptist church, presided. Rev. T. C. Cleveland, the nestor of Pres byterian preachers in Atlanta, is the sec retary of the association. The main subject for discussion was on “The Churches’ Relation to the Prohibition Cause in Georgia,” led by Dr. John E. White. He began by saying that he believed In a free pulpit, a free church and a free state. The church should not dictate to the state nor thf state to the church. He said the attitude of the church to the liquor traffic should be, and is, one of unswerving and uncompromising hos tility. They can have nothing in com mon and the church in Georgia should seek to mould public opinion against the saloon. Rev* Len G. Broughton, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist church, agreed with Dr. White in <ll be had said, but said he did not think he had gone far enough. The Tabernacle pastor said the real ques tion before the state uow is state prohibi tion as opposed to local option. As a min ister. he said, he could not advocate any thing but absolute state prohibition. If that could not be secured, he would take the next best thing, if it should be a state dispensary. The inter-denortlnational temperance committee advises all its friends to not vote for any rtfhdidate who is not pledged to state prohibition, if that can be secur ed. Dr. Broughton said that the pastors should advise their people how to vote in the coming election. Not many Methodist or Baptist pastors win go that far, but will preach on general principles and give no instructions as to how to vote. He said he would advise his flock to vote for Du pont Gtierry or some other prohibition candidate. He said local option had serv ed its day. The best thing the whisky dealers want is iocal option for the sake of the jug trade. He said he went to Car tersville onee and was surprised to see the enormity of the jug trade there. a, ALABAMA NEGROES . TO FORM SOCIAL .UNION HUNTSVILLE.-Ala.; Nov. 5.-There is a gossip here that after the ratification of the new constitution of all the negroes who can vote under the good charsfcter clause and others who can in any way come in under the new constitution will form themselves into a social unton. The better element of negroes realise the ut ter hopelessness of defeating the ratifia cation of the new document and are look ing ahead. By forming themselves into a union it is thought that they will not be classed with the roavlng horde of worthless negroes in the statfe who are detrimental. not only to their race but good government. While the best ele ment of the negroes will probably take such a course as this others threaten that they will leave the state. No one will object to this. ~ Charged With Opening Wife’s Mall.

The new con tracts took effect on April 1, 1899, and at that time the aged, infirm and diseased convicts were placed upon the farm. From that date until January 1, 1900, the commission was allowed to use all of the convict hire, except 125,000, which was paid into the treasury, net. From January 1. 1900, to October 1, 1901, there was paid into the treasury, net, over and above the appropriation made from this hire, 861.826.32, and from October 1, 1900, to October 1, 1901, 881.904.09, aggregating, net, for two and one-half years, 8168,730.41. “For the original investment of 850,000 the state has a farm and equipments well worth this sum and more, besides farm products on hand valued at $34,600.” The receipts and expeditures for the en tire penitentiary system of the state Is shown as follows: To balance brought forward 8 5,177.12 To executive warrants....' 120,040.00 Received from farm .products.... 13.006.05 Total receipts from all 50urce5..5138,222.17 Paj- rolls, $95,485.01; farm supplies. $16.- 157.24; Office salaries. $8,880.00; farm water works system. $4,875.49; permanent im provements at farm, $1,300.83; rewards, sl.- 114.11; camp expenses, $907.86; farm hos pital supplies, $711.51; inspection account, $770.73; office expenses, $778.57; Incidentals, tatson account, $610.59;. litigation account, $868.99; Inquest account, 899; incidentals, s32.9*—total expenditures, $132,082.46.

University law students are making a strong protest against that portion of the Ellis bill requiring students to go before the regular examination boards if they 'do pot complete the two years' course which provides that the law go Into ef fect from and after its passage. Friends of the law schools claim. it would be a serious blow to such schools if passed, and a committee from the law class' of kiercer university has been appointed to have this feature of the bill modified. The committee consists of Johnson, of Camb bell; Stapleton. of Terrell; Lamar, of Hancock; Mooty, of Troup, and Watson, of Oglethorpe. These students do not object to the measure of Senator Ellis, but do object to the provision that makes it retroactive in. their case. The measure provides that the bill shall go‘into effect immediately upon its passage. It is impossible forTnany of the Mercer law students to complete that course. Fay? Mr. Watson. They have worked and toiled and saved up means, just enough in the case of many, to finish up the one year's course, as now required by law. The state is now operating under the Slaton law as to the examinations of ap plicants for admission to the bar. The board consists of three lawyers, Washing ton Dessau, of Macon, chairman; Joseph R. Lamar. Augusta, and W. R. Leakin, Savannah. “FOR GOD’S SAKE" SAVE OUR SONS” JACKSON, Miss., Nov? 4.—A somewhat sensational letter has been received by Governor Longlno signed by "The Mothers of Scranton,” In whkjh a very strong ap peal is made to the governor to stop sa loons and low dives located in that place.

Fla., Nov. 4.-Ten or phan children were rescued from homes of immoral parents Saturday and taken to the Alabama Methodist Orphanage, at Summerfield, Ala., where they will be given a home amid surroundings of a more Christian nattyrp than that provided by their parents. The children ranged tn ages from 2 to 14 years, and the taking them In charge was regarded as an act of great kindness. The children are the offspring of parents who have no sense of shame, and used the little ones for purposes of running er rands of a einful nature, but more es pecially of bringing beer from barrooms. Their condition In life was reported to the Humane society and Society of United Charities, and agents of both these insti tutions went to wofk ,and collected enough evidence to warrant the belief that the parents were not'fit custodians of the children, and if this be shown the law provides that that children be taken away. There was no dlfffculty in showing this claim, and the children were rescued from an otherwise sinful and shameful life. " ■ * be .1 the parents made a great seen, when the little ones were taken from them, and -one shameless woman threatened sulcidS- If her daughter was taken from her.

COB MAKES HIS REPORT INTERESTING STATEMENT OF STATE’S AFFAIRS IS MADE BY SERETARY OF STATE COOK. ♦ -w . ’ ’ ■ z The annual report of Secretary of State Cook has been issued and placed before the members of the house and the sen ate. After listing the railroad companies', banks' and insurance companies’ charters and the head right grants given during the past year. Secretary Cook makes some important recommendation regarding amendments to the laws of the state ef fecting his department. The secretary states that he believes that corporation charter fees should be regulated according to the size of the cor poration which It is proposed to incor porate. Under the present law Mr. Cook says It costs a railroad 100 miles long as much to get a charter as it would cost a railroad 1,000 miles long. The same con dition exists with regard to banks and their capital stock. Mr. Cook believes that charter fees should be assessed ac cording to the amount of capital involved. Attention is called in the report to the fact that at present there is no place where all the Charters of the state issued by the general assembly, the secretary of state’s* office and the superior courts of the 187 counties are recorded. Mr. Cook states that information is being constantly asked of his office regarding certain char ters about .which- he knows nothing. He recommends that the power of granting charters in Georgia be given to one tri bunal. Mr. Cook Recommends further that this power be granted to the office of the sec retary of state. The report takes to task a large num ber of companies which it says are doing a loose business with the Geor gia. without reporting to any depart ment of the state government, under the suprevision of nobody and paying not a dollar of taxes toward the support of the state government.” Mr. Cook says he refers to the numerous concerns operating under the names of “bond improvement companies,” “industrial banking unions, and "debenture redemption companies. The report says It is sometimes difficult to tell whether they are life Insurance companies, acc.uent insurance companies, building and loan associations or lotteries. The report then says: “They usually combine some of the fea tures of all of these Institutions, togeth er with other features peculiarly their own. There is one feature, however, in which they all agree—they all have three salaried officers—a president, a secretary and a treasurer. As long as the concern holds out these officers get their salaries whether their patrons ever get back a dollar they pay in or not.” Mr. Cook, tn his report, advocates some plan for the encouragement of state banks. The report also urges that some plan be arranged whereby the records in the archives of the office be preserved. The county maps he regaras as particu larly valuable, and thetr preservation a matter of great Importance. Old books of record, the report says, should have care and attention that the present facilities of the office do not af ford.

Gress of the special de pot committee, appointed by the legisla ture to revise some plan by which a de pot could be constructed on the property of the state, received answers from the railroad companies on Saturday afternoon declining to renew the proposition made the legislature last year, provided the state should erect a new union station. And now it is up to the state to devise some plan by which a new depot can be built. The answers which were received from, the various railroad companies were evasive and intimated that it was time for the state to suggest a plan. A committee consisting of Senator Ro land Ellis of Bibb, Representative Davis Os Meriwether and Representative Thomp son of Dooly has been appointed to make the railroads a proposition. This commit tee is to meet today, when the legisla ture returns from Savannah. The mem bers of the committee say they have sev eral schemes to present to the railroad men as yet, and they hope to reach a satisfactory conclusion before the house adjourns. BISHOP DECLARES HIS LIFE IN PERIL CHICAGO. Nov. s.—Five men charged by Bishop Anthony Kozlowski, of the In dependent Catholic church, with conspira cy to cause his arrest unlawfully were yesterday held by Magistrate Martin to the grand jury. Four of the defendants brought coun tercharges against Bishop Kozlowski, averring that he had caused the death of seven patients by poisoning iq his hos pital. Kozlowski introduced American born witnesses to prove that the parents died natural deaths and brought to the stand one Boleslaus Lewanowski, who swore that the defendants had offered him money and other inducements to murder the bishop. He eaid the defendants plan ned every detail of the plot for him, but ne refused to be tempted. Bibb County Roads In Need of Repair. MACON, Nov. 4.—Bibb county has long enjoyed the reputation of having the best public roads of any county in the state, but since the chalngang was split in two and one-half or the greater portion of It was used in digging the canal through the swamp below the city, the roads have been getting out of control, until now several of them are said to be going to the bad.

THE HAYNER DISTILLING SURE VICTORY AT THE POLLS RATIFICATIONISTS IN ALABAMA CONCEDE ONLY FOUR COUN TIES TO THE OPPOSITION. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 4.—The Democratic state campaign committee feels absolutely certain of a victory at the polls on November 11th, when the peo ple will vote for the ratification or re jection of the new constitution. The state has been thoroughly canvass ed with the result that the Democrats concede to the opposition but the follow ing four counties: Shelby, St. Clair, Mar shall and Chilton, while they admit that the situation Is doubtful in the counties of Margon, Coosa, Clay and Tallapoosa. Chairman C. M. Shelley, of the opposi tion committee, claims that the ratlfica tloulsts are making claims that are too stout and that the rural people will be found solidly against ratification. He does not give figures neither does he state in what counties he will win, but wears a bold front. HE KILLED AYCOCK; ~_ THEN SHOT HIMSELF CHARLOTTE. N. C..
