GEOKGi^- # Brief Summary of Doings Throughout the State. Beck Quits the Race. Rev. A. J. Beck, of Clarkston, has withdrawn from the race for the school commissionership. He retires in favor of W. B. Merritt. This leaves three men still in the field. They are the present incumbent, R. G. Glenn, Mark Johnston and W. R. Merritt. ... Relied is Offered Stockholders. Judge Don A. Pardee, of the United States circuit court, does not wish the affairs of the Interstate Building and Loan Association, of Columbus, to be wound up in the courts, unless this Course shall be deemed absolutely nec essary, and has given tlje stockholders an opportunity of reorganizing the as sociation. * • • For Widows of Slain Officers. As soon as it became known through out Atlanta that the wives of a num ber pf policemen had be<Vme widows a:- a result of th riot of Saturday morn ing, patriotic citizens realized that steps should be taken to care for wid ows and orphans, and voluntary sub scriptions began to pour in and the indications are that a handsome sum of money will be raised. - ... Efforts to End Strike at Augusta. An effort is being made to terminate the cotton mill strike at Augusta, now in its sixth week. A petition, circu lated among the King mill operatives, asking that the mill be started again, has already been signed by several hundred non-union employees. The union workers express their determi nation to remain out as long as the commissary supplies their wants. * * * Rifle Practice at Macon. The Georgia state encampment for instruction in rifle practice will be held at Macon, beginning June 7. to last one -week. Teams not to exceed five men will be ordered to Macon from each company in the state, and in addition to rifle practice, instruc tion .wiil he given in- regular camp duty, in guard mount, and, as far as may be possible, in drill. Ask A Big Fair For Atlanta. This fall Atlanta will have the big gest fair and horse show in its history. The guarantee fund of SIO,OOO has 1 practically been assured and it is only a question jof arranging the details. The bui.ijings at Piedmont park are now in better condition than ever be fore. They have been improved dur ing the paft few years and these im provements lhave been kept up. Asa result, it will not take a very great money to make a splen did fair aud fiorse show a possibility. * * * To Stat Up on Sunday. On Saturday the last spike will be driven in the ling of the Atlantic and Birminghamtr?.i!road between Fitzger ald and CoiyLe, and Sunday the line will be throvl open to the world for business. V On that d.'M another beautiful pas senger trait will be put on and a dou ble daily se vice put into operation. The grow h of the Atlantic and Bir mingham in the past few years from a tram road ta a trunk line affords one of the best illustrations of railroad (■volu'jiqn .thf.t Has occurred within the borders of the state of Georgia. * * * Appeal For Dollie Pritchett. Another appeal has been made to i the prison commission for the pardon | of Dollie Pritchett, the young girl who was sentened from 'Cherokee county | to life imprisonment in the peniten ! tiary for infanticide. At this hearing ! her mother. was pres | ent and agreed to allow the girl to be i seut to a reformatory until it was i thought she was table to distinguish I between right andtwrong. The prison commission would hare pardoned the girl ‘some time ago if consent had been* given by her pa rents to allow the spung woman to be sent to a reformatory. This Mrs. Pritchett ■ , '.i notado. and of course the commission did not feel authorized to re! the girl.. Now. however, a favoral. - recommendation may be made to Governor Candler. IK * * President Vetoed "Relief” Bill. i A Washington dispatch says: The action of President Roosevelt in veto ; ing the bill, recently passed by con gress “for the relief of Harry C. Mix. | cf Macon, on account of being surety on the forfeited appearance or bail I bond of A. F. Holt, charged with em bezzlement while postmaster at Val dosta." has called forth adverse criti -1 cism from senators and representa tives who have investigated the case. ■ The bill was introduced in the house : by Judge Bartlett, and when it reach ed the senate was taken charge of by Senator Bacon, who secured a fa vcrable report from the judiciary ; committee, of which h*;is a member. I-nd. with this, the prompt passage of 1 He bill. The acknowledged facts concerning this case of Mr. Mix seem to argue i that there is every warrant for reliev i ini; him from his responsibility as surety Mr. Holt, who was postmas ter at \ aidosta. was indicted for em bezzlement- in the United States dis ‘riet court at Macon in 1894. In Jan- nary, 1895, Deputy United StatdMar shall Ayers induced Mr. Mix be come surety on the appearanc-pond of Holt. Mix was not well acqunted with Holt and signed the bonfipcn the representation of Ayers thaioth ing wou and become of the case. After having made this appaance bond, the defendant appeared fi trial at both the May and 1895, of the court, and at each tie the j case was continued by the jvern ment. Holt was on his way to jpear j at the May term, 1896, when and j Mr. Mix was informed by Chit Dep- j uty Ayers that they need not ttend court, as the case would nevecome up. After an investigation the j books and accounts cf the postnster, Holt, the claim of the governme: was j considerably reduced and the aount ! that was found to be due the ivern- | ir.ent has been fully paid. * * Will Greatly Benefit Cedarton. The story of the sale of th'East and vVest railroad to the Sejoard system means much to the deelop ment of the state and the varies in terests along the entire line o;road from Atlanta to Birmingham. Bt the people of Cedartown and Polk cunty arc- especial y concerned in thedeal and the future of this enterprisin city is now absolutely assured in lany particulars. Cedartown is about half wa; be tween Atlanta and Birmingham and will in all probability be the jelay point for all trains and crews oithis division. The railroad shops O the East and West are in Cedartow al ready, and the same naturally wl ob tain under the new regime. (jdar town furnishes more freight and tjaffic to the East and West than all l.her points along the entire road, an) re ceives a like amount. The Ce,tral of Georgia railway from Griffii to Chattanooga is a competitor of the Seaboard Air Line, and this beingthe largest town along the new divisid .of the Seaboard Us business and iinor tance are apparent to all. Governor Acted Promptly. During the incipient rioting inAt lanta Saturday every precaution gas j taken by the governor, county ,nd | city officials to prevent a general out break. All the troops in A\lanta tyre kept under arms in their armoies, ready at a moment’s notice to proeed at once to any point where treble | might bo orewing. A heavy guard of 150 men was lhpt on duty at the scene of the riot in Pittsburg. Governor Candler declared j that he intended doing everything in j his power to prevent a repetition of the trouble, and it was at his ordjers • that the military were kept in ret>di- ! ness to respond promptly to any j alarm. The governor announced that the i lives and property of innocent negroes j would be protected from mob violence and he instructed the officers in com mand of the troops to see to it that ] these orders were carried out. The j soldiers were told to prevent trouble if possible, but to quell rioting at what- j ever cost. His orders were; “Don't shoot until compelled to, but 1 when you shoot, shoot to kill.” This prompt and determined action on the part of the chief executive stimulated the military to action and the soldiers went on duty fully prepar ed to carry out the governor's orders. * * * Georgia Cities Fare Splendidly. According to a Washington dispatch the senate committee on public build ings has agreed to amendments in creasing the appropriations for pub lic buildings at Athens. Macon and Rome. The Athens appropriation is fixed at SIOO,OOO instead of $75,000, as in the house hi!!. The appropriation for Rome will be SB,OOO. for an addi tion of land to the present site. The Macon appropriation, as now agreed on. is $120,000, and there is a possibility of an increase of this to se cure a still larger appropriation for the purchase of land so as to cover the half square upon a portion of which tlie present building is located. The bill has not yet been completed, and it is possible that there may be fur ther changes. The tendency of the committee is, however, against any large increases 'and against new build ings for smaller cities. It is probable this will stand in the way of Gaines ville and Thoniasville. DEBATING PHILIPPINE BILL. Rawlins, of Utah, Has Much to Say Regarding the Water Cure. During Wednesday’s session of the senate Mr. Rawlins, of Utah, continued his speech in oposition to the bill pro viding for a form of government for the Philippine islands. He devoted the greater part of’his speech to a dls | mission of the testimony presented to I the Philippine committee relating to : the administration cf the "water cure” to natives, and to other forms of torture inflicted upon the Filipinos. MORE TROUBLE IN PATERSON. Howling Mob of Strikers Attack Police and Many Are Hurt. At Paterson. N. J., Wednesday the ! striking dye helpers stormed the estab lishments that were still running and by force compelled a complete suspen sion of business in their trade. engaged in a series of running fights with the police and p ant managers and exchanged a volley of pistol shots with them. Many persons on either side were severely injured duritg the rioting, but none dangerously so. Atlantic & Birmingham Railroad Cos, TIME TABLE EFFECTIVE DEC. 1, 1901. • STATIONS.
