THE BIG DISTRICT. I
The Second Congressional District
Is now entitled to the name oti the
"Big District” of Georgia, for lt-ls that
in' fact, having more counties and the
largest population. '
Until recently the Eleventh was the
largest district, embracing 18 counties
with a population of 227,086—census of
1900. The Ninth district came next,
with 17 counties, but with a popula
tion of only 196,345, while the Second,
with her 15 counties, showed a popu
lation of 226,980.
Now, the Second district, with the
three new counties of Grady, Tift and
Turner, has 18 counties and a popula
tion of not less than 300,000.
Orady county was made out of parts
of counties that were "already In the
Second district, but' Tift and Turner
counties both took In territory from
other districts, Tift taking from the
Eleventh and Third, and Turner tak
ing from the Third,
The Second will continue to be the
Big* District Until the state Is redis
tricted, which will probably not be un
til after the next national census Is
taken In 1910, and the chances are
that It will even then hold Its place,
as the population of this Imtfledlate
section of the state Is Increasing at
a rapid ratq.

VETERANS’ LICENSE CANNOT BE
FARMED OUT.
The 1 abuse of the privilege given to
Confederate veterans to peddle or en
gage In cither business In this’state
without paying a license has beconie
so common as to prove a source of al
most constant annoyance to munici
pal governments, and tile following
1 report from the Macon Telegraph of
a case disposed of In that city yester
day will be of Interest to the munici
pal luthorfttes of perhaps most of the
towns and cities of the state:
“The farming out of veterans' free
licenses was given what will probably
prove a knockout blow. when C. E.
Moore, a butcher, was lined $200 by
Judge Nottingham for doing business
under the license of a Confederate sol
dier.
“Moore was prosecuted, for doing
business without a license, ’the fact
having developed that he was oper
ating under the license of a veteran,
"Who was said to have no Interest what
ever in the business which was being
carried on.
“Judge Nottingham took the, posi
tion that the law providing for free
licenses for veterans was a privilege
