Brief Summary of Interesting
Happenings Culled at Random.
%
Georgia’s Wealth Greatly Increased.
The net increase in the taxable prop
erty of Georgia is just $17,475,646
These figures are made public by Com
troller Wright, who has just completed
his annual report.
The increase in general property is
$15,227,336 and in railroad property
$2,227,336.
This increase in taxable values based
on the present rate of 5 2-10 mills
would bring into the state treasury an
additional sum oi $90,873, which, but
for the constitutional amendment
recently adopted pensioning indigent
widows, would result iu lowering
the tax rate.
There seems to be a wide difference
of opinion as to just how muc’i money
will be needed to pay ihe widows’ pen
sions. Commissioner Lindsay seems
to thiuk it may amount to $250,000 or
$3®0,000, while other state officials do
not believe it will be over $50,000 for
the first year or two.
On this depends whether or not the
tax rate <m be lowered, but it is
known that every effort will be made
to do so.
The total value of general property
returned for taxation iu the state is
$388,154,413, and of railroad prop
erty $46,181,721, but this does not
include the Southwestern, Georgia,
Western and Atlantic and those roads
which pay a tax on their income.
These would add another $18,000,000
to the value of railroad property.
The state treasurer’s report for the
fiscal year just ending shows receipts
of $3,542,069.69 and disbursements of
$3,564,647.11. The state had a sur
plus in the treasury a year ago of
$438,723.72. That surplus is now
$416,146.30, but it will be increased
by about $200,000 when the next pay
ment from the sale of the Northwestern
railroad is received.
Tre Mirer Speer Iletired on 24th.
Treasurer Speer, who has been in
chargo of the linauces of the state for
the past four years, will retire on Oc
tober 24tb, and Jvill be succeeded by
Treasurer-elect R. E. Park, of Macon.
Treasurer Speer has made a remark
able record while in office and leaves
the treasury in splendid condition. He
succeeded the late R. U. Hardemau,
but for a mimber of years previous
had been couueeted with.the treasury
department.
Mr. Park announces that he will re
tain the same office force as was em
ployed by Treasurer Speer. The force
consists of Captain C. T. Furlow,
assistant treasurer,and Sterling Grimes
Turner, cashier.

Appointment Only Temporary.
As will be seen from the following
order, the appointment of Colonel
Byrd as adjutant general of Georgia is
a temporary appointment, and holds
only until the expiration of the present
term of Governor Candler, which ex
pires on October 27th:
State of Georgia —Executive Office,
Atlanta, October 11, 1900—Whereas,
a vacaucy exists in the office of adju
tant general, occasioned by the death
of General John Mclntosh Kell, and
the best interests of the military of the
state demnnd that said vacancy be fill
ed, it is therefore
Ordered, That the assistant adjutant
general, Colonel Phil G. Byrd, be and
lie is hereby appointed adjutant gen
eral, to serve as such till the expira
tion of the present term of the present
governor, and until his successor is
appointed and qualified.
A. D. Candler, Governor.
The probability is that the successor
of General Byrd, whoever he will be,
will not be appointed for two or three
weeks after the inauguration of Gov
ernor Candler. j

Frank Weldon, Oil Inspector.
Mr. Frank Weldon has been ap
pointed inspector of illuminating oils
for the district of Atlanta to fill the
vacancy made by the resignation of
Inspector J. P. Atkinson some days
ago. His term will expire October 1,
1302.
The appointment of Mr. Weldon to
this office, which is one of the best po
sitions in the disposal of the commis
sioner of agriculture, gives pleasure to
the many friends of the appointee and
to the state officials. Mr. Weldon was
formerly a popular member of The At
lauta Constitution staff.

Top Crop “Uyth.”
The government’B bearish cotton re
port causes considerable talk among
the farmers and cotton men of the
state. All who express opinions from
the farmer’s point of view state that
it is ridiculous to talk about a top crop
in Georgia or Alabama, because in
many fields the cows a/e now follow
ing the pickers, and the last of the
crop will be marketed in a short while;
but even where the plant is late it is
short lived, and could not possibly be
made to produce n top crop. However,
it is agreed that the farmers have not
been in a better condition since the
war, and many whose backs have been
bent by the weight of heavy mort
gages are now free from debt and bavo
I hank accounts. And they, tha/
tney have learned well the lesson of
diversified farming.
• • •
Fruit Growen Not Discouraged.
Regardless of the past season, which
was only partly successful to the fruit
crop of the state, the Georgia growers
are preparing for extensive addition
to their orchards and are already con
tracting with the big nurseries of tha
country for thousands of peach trees.
State Entomologist Scott returned
to Atlanta a day or tr~ 'go and
orought with him the announcement
that by this time next year Georgia
will have practically 1,000,000 more
fruit trees than are to be found in tha
state at present.
* • •
Hardwick Will Try Again.
Representative Hardwick, of Wash
ington county, says that he will again
introduce his bill limiting the suffrage
at the opening of the next general
assembly. He expresses great confi
dence that the measuro will secure fa
vorable consideration when presented,
despite the overwhelming defeat of
the proposition at the last session. He
thinks there has been a change in
legislative sentiment aud Buys he may
make some modifications iu the orig
inal draft.
• • •
Special Meeting of Slate fimbalmers.
The Georgia State Board of Em
balmers will hold a special meeting in
Atlanta on October 27th for the pur
pose of examining applicants for the
state license.
The board is only required by law
to hold one meeting a year, but this
special meeting is held for the accom
modation of those who could not ap
pear before the last meeting, which
oocurred in Savannah. The meeting
in Atlanta will be held at 24$ West
Alabama street, and it is expected that
there will be about twenty-five appli
cants present. The board will be in
session perhaps two days.
* • •
Surfeit of Prosperity.
Asa result of the prosperous condi
tions now prevailing in Georgia and
the increase in business which has
followed, charges have beau brought
against the Southern railway iu the
railroad commission of Georgia for
failure to supply the demand for cars.
This complaint was filed a few days
ago by the citizens of Maysville aud
Villa Rica, who allege that traffic is
congested in both towns and that they
are suffering an injury as a result.
The road’s officials promised to
make every effort to relieve the con
gestion at the points mentione at thed
earliest possible moment. If the road
complies the matter will probably
drop where it is, but if not, then the
commission will proceed with a further
investigation.
Depends on the Slate.
If the railroads entering Atlanta
agree to pay as rental 6 per cent per
annum on the cost of a union station
to be erected by the state, the outcome
of the recent conference between the
railroads and the depot commission
will in all likelihood be that before
the close of 1901 Atlanta will have a
new depot on the site of the present
one, costing between $400,000 and
$600,000.
If the new station is erected it will
be erected by the state and not by the
railroads. Through the president of
the lessee road, Major J. W. Thomas,
the aunouuceraent was formally made
that it is out of the question for the
depot to be built by the railroads.
That proposition is no longer in con
templation.

Griffin*. Carnival a Success.
Secretary Searcy, of the Griffin car
riv*al company,made a statement show
ing that after paying all expenses and
outstanding bills there was a balance
on hand of $872.20. After some dis
cussion it was decided to leave the
amount in the hands of President
Drake, to be out at interest as a
nucleus for a carnival fund for next
year. It is now a settled fact that
Griffin will have another carnival next
year.
...
Periodical Inspection Recommended.
Inspector General Obear in his an
nual report to the adjutant general of
the state, strongly recommends that
the eight military schools of Georgia
which have been supplied at the state’s
expense with arms and accoutrements
bo inspected periodically as contem
plated by law. The report points out
that while these institutions are bene
ficiaries of the state to a certain de
gree, they have never beon subjected
to an inspection with the idea of en
couraging the worthy ones and de
priving the unworthy of the state’s
equipment.

Farmer I. Assassinated.
News was received in Valdosta Satur
day that Youman Padgett, a well
known farmer of the Cat Creek dis
trict, was shot aud instantly killed by
an unknown assassin while at the
house of a neighbor, Thomas W. Ray,
assisting in nursing a sick child. Pad
gett was about to retire aud walked
to the door, when the fatal shot was
, tired, and he fell dead. The as
sassin escaped and there is no clue to
his identity. It is supposed that Pat
gett was shot in mistake for Ray.
