THE ALBANY DAILY 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.

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 granted for > final effort to avert a coal strike to succeed.
