We refer to the plan looking to

The State University is really
nothing more than a part of the com
mon school system of Georgia. The
schools depend upon the University
for advanced teachers and the Uni*
versity in turn depends upon the
schools for pupils. In ihis way the
system of higher education is made
complete, the University infusing it

schools giving it back to the Uni

This is a mistake. In whatever

The annual meeting of the Alliance
Warehouse Co., was called to order by
the president, Mr. A. F. Pope, on yes
terday morning at ten o’clock in the
court house. It was a meeting of the
stockholders and a full quorum was
present.
The usual order of business was main
tained, and the first thing was the read
ing of the reports of
the different committees
and sub-committee, all of which were
adopted. The reports were up to usual
standard and the years showing is most
satisfactory. The work of the ware
house has been up to the usual stand
ard and everything points to a bright
and prosperous year.
The same officers who have held their
positions for the past year were
ail re-elected. Mr. A. F. Pope
still holds the office of president, and
Mr. Dawson Williams that of Secre
tary.
After the election of officers the fol
lowing resolution was introduced:
Resolved, That we, the stockholders
of the Farmers’ Alliance Warehouse, of
Athens, Ga., this day assembled, stand
ready to heartily co-operate by contri
butions or otherwise, with the Clarke
County Alliance, the city or other au
thorities of Athens, Ga., in making the
ICth day of July a grand success, the
day fixed by the National Alliance for
a grand Alliance rally at said city.
This resolution is a good- and timely
one and will be well taken. The Alli
ance is on the right track, as the work
of the past year has shown, and the fu
ture appears for it bright and prosper
ous.
On yesterday afternoon at half past
three o’clock the Board of directors of
the warehouse met at the Alliance ware
house office, and many matters of im
portance to the stockholders were
brought up for discussion. The work
of the year has been decidedly satisfac
tory in every respect.

Our cotemporary is on the right

Putting down steel rails.
That is what will be done on the
Northeastern in a few days.
A Banner reporter met Supt. Ham-'
mond of tbe Northeastern yesterday
and had a talk with him concerning the
condition of that road and what was to
be done with it.
“Well,” said Mr. Hammond, “you
may say that steel rails will be laid
along the entire length of the North
eastern road, and the work will begin
in a few days.
“The ra Is. have been ordered and 1
expect them to arrive tomorrow. When
ever they get here I will at once put a
section of hands to work and have
them laid on to Lula J uiiction.
“You may say that when thfc work is
finished that the Northeastern road will
be in as good condition as any road in
Georgia.”
“Will you connect with the Macon &
Northern and run a through schedule?”
“Yes,” said Mr. Hammond, “c «nnec-
tion will be made with the Macon and
Norihcrn and the through train will be
put on in a few days between Lula and
Albany. That trip will be made in one
day, leaving Lula in the early morn
ing.”
Thus ic will be seen that Athens will
soon have better railroad facilities than
ever and that the Northeastern wilLbe
put in a first class condition.

Atlanta, Go., June 15. [Special]—
There is something like a crisis at this
time of tbe affairs of the State Agricul
tural society, or perhaps, more properly
speaking, in the affairs of the State
Frir. The differences between the Fair
authorities and city council of Macon
have been aired in the press. On the
10th the [premium committee met at
Macon and after considering all the
questions at tissue, without the dis
senting vote decided to discontinue
preparations for the fair at Macon and
remanded the entire matter to tbe ox
ecutive committee. To-day Presideot
Waddell has issued a letter to the mem
bers of that committee. In his letter
he sets forth that other expositions have
made preparations to the State Fair but
that he doesn’t think be has a right to
act unless the executive committee
gives him the specific right. In order
therefore, to ascertain tbe mind of the
committ *e, President Waddell asks each
