To the Honorable Philip Cook, Sec
retary of State, Atlanta, Ga.
The undersigned, whose names,
signed by each of them, aud resi
dences are hereto attached, bring
this our petition, In pursuance of an
Act of the General Assembly of Uie
State of Georgia, approved Decem
ber 20th, 1893, and Actc amenda
tory thereof, and respectfully show:
That we desire to form a
corporation for the purpose of car
rying on the business of Banking.
2nd. The name and style of the
proposed corporation shall be: Bank
of Metcalfe
3rd. The Ucatton and principal
place of business -hall be the Town
of Metcalfe, County of Thomas, and
State of Georgia.
4th. The amount of Capital Stock
1s Twenty-five Thousand Dollars
($25,000.00), divided Into 250
shares of $100.00 each.
5th. The nature of the proposed
corporation shall be that of a Bank,
with continuous succession for the
term of thirty vears, with the rlyht
of renewal -for » like term. To sue
and be sued. To have and use a
Common Seal, and nt pleasure to
alter the same. To appoint such
Officers and Agents as the business
of tho corporation requires, prescribe
their duties, fix their compensation,
and remove them at pleasure. To
make such by-laws as may be neces
sary or proper for the management
of Its property and regulatlen of lta
affairs. To hold, purchase,* dispose
of and convey such real and per
sonal property as may be necessary
for its use and business. To dis
count bills, notes or otbe/ evidences
of debt: to receive and pay out de
posits, with or without Interest: to
receive on special deposit money or
bullion or foreign coin, or stocks or
Mexican situation, recalls the fact
that Judge Lamar te not only a high
minded and scholarly Jurist, but al
so one of the most resourceful men
who ever fairly got the better of an
opponent.
Judge Lamar's old-time Georgia
friends remember how this quality
stood out when as a young lawyer
he was appointed by the tench to
defend a Chinaman In an apparent
ly hopeless murder case. It was
customary then as now to appoint
young lawyers to defend criminals
In cases where there was absolute
ly no chance of acquittal, Lamar
fooled ’em.
The prosecution rfellea strongly
on the testimony of another Chinese
who had witnessed the firing of the
fatal shot. Lamar waited until the
case was nearly over and everyone
had decided that the defendant
would surely be banged on the tes
timony of his countryman.
Then the young attorney Inform
ed the Jury that the Chinese on the
witness stand could not he believed
becauae he had not sworn according
to the Chinese custom. He said the
[ Chinese always placed their right
hand on a plate covered with the
blood of a chicken when they took
an oath.
Inasmuch as this witness had
been sworn with his hand on the
Bible, a book in which he did not
believe, hla oath would iiave no
weight In making him tell the truth.
He then made an eloquent appeal,
and warned the Jurors of what they
mlcht expect In the next world If
they sent a man to his death on the
testimony of a Chinese who had
taken an oath which he did not re
gard as binding. The prisoner was
acquitted.

He was one ui a party wno had
fled from Mexico City several
months ago.
“I am going back to Mexico, for
I have all my business interests
there," he Is quoted ns continuing,
“but when I go you can put it down
that I am going to take out British
naturalization papers. About, the
only protection-we had in Mexico
was extended by the British, whom
the Mexicans respect and the power
of whose flag they fear.
‘You ask us to tell you aDout the
situation In five minutes. That te
impossible. Get on tho train with
us and ride until night, and perhaps
we could give you an Idea of the
horrors . The American flag In
Mexico 1s scoffed at and Jerred at."

Mr. Joe Hall, who liver, in the
Atlanta, May 19.—Politicians gen
erally in Atlanta are commending
in the highest terms the action of
Hon. W. J. Harris in resigning as
director of the United States cen
sus prior to opening nis campaign

Even the few leaders who were
already pledged to other candidates
before Mr. Harris announced for the
race, are open and unqualified in
their admiration of what he has
done.
Mr. Harris took this action, It Is
stated, not because it was urged on
him, but in the face of the fact that
Presdlent Wilson hat! assured him
that if he wanted to he couhl retain
the directorship while running for
Governor without imuroprlely. He
decided, however, that if he were
goin«? into Georghi politics, to ask
the people to make him gove^eor,
he would go into It heart and soul
and sever all official connection with
the national administration.
Mr. Harris, it is stated today,
will follow his action at Washing
ton by resigning as Chairman of the
State Democratic Executive commit
tee.
He Is planning to open his guber
natorial campaign in Cedartown, his 12 months in the year. So, when

been taking Thedford’s Black-Draught

les, also colds, and find it to be the very
best medicine I have ever used.
After taking Black-Draught for a few
days, I always feel like a new man."

ness after eating, are sure symptoms of
