GEORGIA NEWS ITEMS Brief Summary of Interesting Happenings Culled at Random. Working: for Deep Water. Pursuant to the resolution adopted at the organization of the association, the Columbus and Apalachicola Deep Water association has sent invitations to the members of the rivers and har bors committee of congress “to visit Columbus and take a trip down the Chattahoochee river. A reply has been received from Mr. Burton, of Ohio, the chairman of the committee, which states that he will be in the south soon. • • • Aid red Want! InT*tlff*tlon. Captain E. E. Aldred of company A, Fifth regiment, against whom charges of conduct unbecoming an officer and of padding his accounts bo as to re ceive more money from the state than his company is outitled, has addressed a letter to Governor Candler as com mander-in-chief, demanding an inves tiliutiou of the charges preferred. It is generally understood that the form the proceedings have now taken is favorable to Captain Aldred and that the final resnlt will be a refusal to order a courtmartial. • * * Tlielr Work Finished. The board of engineer officers ap pointed some time ago by General Wilson, chief of the United States engineer corps, to make an examina tion and report upon the feasibility of the twenty-eight foot project for the Savannah river frdm the city to the sea, as planned by General Gillmore, has finished its work. The officers would give out nothing as to what was done, but it is believed they will favor the project to give Savannah deeper water. • • Insurance Company Chartered. The Empire Mutual Annuity and Liifl Insurance Company, a coporation with headquarters in Atlauta.has been chartered by Secretary of State Cook. The company is chartered to do insur ance business on the co-operative plan, and therefore is not compelled by law to have a capital stock. The incorporators are James G. Truitt, S. C. Calloway, W. H. Reid, E. C. Callo way, Alfred Truitt and Samuel Bar nett. • • • (inorpla Cotton Sued For France. Samples of Georgia cotton seed will be sent to the French minister at New Orleans and by him they will be dis tributed among the French colonies, which indicates that France will ex periment in cotton growing and that nation may in time become the for midable rival of the United States as a producer of the fleecy staple. Samples of Georgia cotton seed were sent the Russian government several years ago, and press dispatches this year announce tha the experiments in the colonies of that power have been entirely successful. Thiß fact, no doubt, bad largely to do with the ef forts of the French government offi cials to obtain samples of Georgia cot ton seed. Wigging May Rfleftßfd. Attorney General Terrell went to Montgomery county last Saturday to represent the state prisou commission iu the case of J. S. Wiggins, a convict, for when the claim has been made that ho was tnkeu to the peuitoutiary ille gally. Wiggins was tried for murder in Montgomery county six months ago and on the trial was found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to a term of fifteen years. Wheu the sentence was passed the man begged to be taken to the peni tentiary at once in order that his term of service could begin without delay, and the county officers, after receiving the consent of the prison commission, agreed to the request. Wiggins was forwarded to the prison camp before the remittitur from the supreme court arrived. There was never any legal form to his commitment to the peni tentiary, due altogether to an over sight, and now the friends of the con vict are workin t for his release on the ground that he is held in prison with out legal warrant therefor. m * * Dublin’* New Cotton Mill*. The bri'-k work of the main build ing of the Dublin cotton mills has been finished. It will require about three weeks to build the big smokestack and all the brick work will tnen bo com pleted. It is expected to have the mills in full operation by February Ist. If the mills prove a success it i6 highly probable that the capital stock in the fall of 1901 will be increased from SIOO,OOO to $200,000. m m • Fir© Destroy* Saw Mill. The saw mill of the Betts Bros., at Aahbnrn, one of the largest on the line of the Georgia Southern and Florida railway, was totally destroyed by fire one night the past week. ' As the fire occurred near the track of the railroad, all trains were delayed. No esti mate of the probable amount of the loss is obtainable, but It must bo very large, as the plant was expensive and there was an immense stock of lumber in the yards. * * * Walden Take* Jail Uf© Kuy. Jbte Walden, in liibb county jail, charged with the murder of Farmer Dixon in Johnson county, who was re fused anew trial by Judge Evans the past week takes his situation very com placently. He says that if he has to go to the penitentiary he prefers a life sentence to one of twenty years, as he would, in the former case, hava a greater chance of being pardoned. He declared it to be his intention, if he shall finally be compelled to go to the penitentiary, to make a model prisoner. The young man talks of his case in the most nonchalant way, and seems to be insensible to the charac ter of the punishment that awaita him as to the terrible character of the crime in which he participated. • * • It*venue Stamp Involved. A case involving an altogether dw point of law and which revives interest in the murder of Mrs. Eugenia Hamil ton Pottle, near Macon, just one year ago, was argued in the supreme coult at Atlanta last Friday. The suit was a case of Small vs. Slocum. Mrs. Pottle owned a large plantation in Jones county, near Ma con, valued at $13,000. She had leased the place to a mau named Slocum who was working it before Mrs. Pottfe was killed. In the meantime she had mort gaged the property to A. T. Small, who kept a store near the place. Soon after Mrs. Pottle’s death, the Slocums set up a sawmill on the property and began cutting down the timber. Small, who had a mortgage, brought suit iu equity against Slocum claiming that he was wasting the prop erty. Slocum put up his lease as evidence. The case was heard before Judge John C. Hart in the Jones county superior court. The main point in the case was whether or not the lease was legal. It did not bear the revenue stamp which is required by an enactment of con gress, and the attorneys for Small made the point that to be a legal lease it must bear the stamp. The other lawyers contended that the congress of the United States had no right to prescribe the method of procedure in a state court and if the mortgage had no stamp it was just as good, accord ing to the state of Georgia, as was one with a stamp. The case was decided in favor of Slocum, and the lawyers for Small ap pealed to the supreme court. The poiut on which the case was appealed involved the revenue stamp and lengthy arguments were made by Washington Dessau, counsel for Small. He contended that the con gress did have the right to rule on evidence in a state court, and that the judge erred in not ruling out the lease which had no stamp. George S. Jones, attorney for Slo cum, argued oil the other band that congress had no right to dictate to state courts what rules of evidence they should employ, and under the laws of Georgia the lease was a good one, as it bore the signature of both parties, and was attested by proper witnesses. The case is one of the most import ant ones brought before the court at this session. It is a big question and the decision will determine whether it is necessary in Georgia to place reve nue stamps on notes,mortgages, bonds and other documents required by the United States under the act of 18‘J8.
