OVER THE STATE,
Wring a nummary of Interesting Hap*
penlngs From Day to Oay.
Georgia melons will bo so,area this
year. This is bod news for those who
love tho Rattlesnake and tho Kolb
Gem. Th6 crop is short and tho rail¬
roads will miss many a dollar in reve¬
nue. Ho will the doctors. Rut tho
growers ought to get a bettor price
this season than they received last
year.
Mr. R. J. Lowry, of /.Uinta, has
turned over to tho comptroller general
a check for something Over $14,000,
which pays in full all back taxes ami
dues from tho Marietta and North
Georgia railroad to the state. Captain
Lowry was instructed to pay this debt
to tho stato from tho first payment
made by the purchasers of tho road
and tho account was squared us above
stated.
Ilrtinmvlclc Heritor Compromise.
Tho senate conferees agreed upon a

a minimum depth of twouty-threo feet
at mean high tide, thirty thousand
dollars shall bo paid therefore; and
when ho has secured a channel two
hundred foot wide, twenty-four feet
deep at mean high tide, an additional
forty thousand dollars shall Do paid

Provided. That no payments shall

Tlie Weekly Press Excursion,
Mr. W. H. Coleman, president of
tho Georgia Weekly 1’roHH Association,
is busy making arrangements for the
approaching summer excursion of tho
weekly press brigade. Mr. Colotnau
is enthusiastic over tho outlook.
“Wo are going tohavo a great time,”
said he, “at our npproaching session.
Most of tho editors will leave Atlanta
ou tho afternoon of July 13th, reach¬
ing Elbcrton that night. A reception
will bo tendered tho boys in the rooms
of tho library aud every courtesy will
ho shown by tho good people of tho
town. Tho Georgia Womau’s l’rosa
Club will meet iu Elbcrton at the sumo
timo and there will doubtless he a
joint programme at least for a part of
tho timo. Ou tho 15th tho hoys will
finish their deliberations and start on
a pleasure trip of several days. At
Lookout mountain u reception will bo
givon them at tho Inn by tho proprie¬
tors of that hotel. Going from there
to Nashville thoy will bo tho guests of
tho Centennial Exposition company

Atlanta.
Preparing for Summer Institutes.
Commissioner of Education Glenn is
busily at work getting everything
ready for tho summer institutes. A
pamphlet of nearly two hundred pages,
entitled “Outllnosof methods for Geor¬
gia Teachers for the Summer Institute,"
is being mailed by tbo department of
education to ail of the county school
commissioners and will bo put in tho
hands of every teacher who attends the
institute this summer.
Tho syllabus is a very complete ono
nnd will be a valuable nid iu tho bauds
of tho teachers.
Tlie annual mooting of tho Georgia
Teachers' Association will bo held ou
Cumberland island, nt the auditorium
of the association, from July t-lth to
tho 31st. Special rates have been se¬
cured at the hotel aud tenting privi¬
leges will bo granted to those who
wish thorn. The first week will ho de¬
voted to tho usual business session. A
very interesting programme is being
prepared nnd questious pertaining to
schools and their management will bo
discussed by tho ablest speakers.
During tho last two weeks a very
complete normal will be conducted.
There will bo a corps of nine professor)
and twelve courses of study. It will
present tho best opportunity ever offi r-
ed iu Georgia for professional improve¬
ment with free iustructiou.
l’ardon Hoard Adjourn*.
Tho pardon board 1ms mot and a 1
journod, tho governor has issued liis
approvals and joy will reign iu many
bosoma ia the Georgia penitentiary
when tho glut news gets there. But
joy will lie confined in tho bosom-tof the
representative of effete nobility oud of
Georgia’s gayest lotlmrio. My Lord
Berea ford and Harry Hill nre not on
tho list.
A glance over tho records at the
capitol will show tho great benefit of
this pardon board. Somo of the men
pardoned had been sent up for one
crime, when later developments show
that they were either innocent, or had
committed another crime, according to
the law. This board stands, after the
courts, us a means to carry out justice,
and it is doing good work.
Of course it is only an aid to the
governor. Ho, after all, uses his dis¬
cretion, but the board boils down tho
matter for him, as it were, and gives
him the advantage of its wise counsel.
If he docs uot see it iu tho s<uie light
the board does, he withholds hie sig¬
nature.
That is what ho has done in tbo
Boresford aud Harry Hill r coo m men-
dations. both of which came to him
from the board marked with that
body’s approval; but Governor Atkin¬
son thought otherwise, and so these
two gentlemen remain for the nonce
In their prison, garb and habitation.

Against Sunday Freight Trains.
Hereafter when a freight trains ruos
in Georgia on Hunday it will run at
its peril. This was settled by a decis¬
ion of tho supremo court of tlie
United States a few days ago, when
that court sustained tho opinion of At¬
torney General Terrell iu tho famous
llennington case.
Tho eusu has been in tho courts for
a long time. On March 15, 18‘Jl, I i .
F. llennington, superintendent of
transportation of tho Alabama Great
Southern, Meridian, running from Chattanooga
to Miss., run a freight train,
loaded with interstate freight, through
Dado county, Georgia. The solicitor
general of Iho circuit iu which Dade
county lies made u case against Mr.
Hcuuiugton for violation of tho Huu-
iluy law of Georgia. The case bus all
along been recognized as a test case,
and has boon fought by tho railroads
to tho highest court iu tlie United
States. Tlie Georgia law, section
•1578 of tho code, which has been sus¬
tained by tbo supremo court, reads ns
follows:
“If any freight traiu shall be rup
on any railroad in this stato on the
Sabbath superintendent day (known ns Sunday), tho
of transportation of
such railroad company, or tho officer
having charge of tho business of that
department of tho railroad, shall bo
liablo for indictment for a misde¬
meanor in each county through which
such traiu shall pass, and, on convic
tion, shall be for each offeuBopunished
us prescribed iu section 4510 of this
code. On such trial it shall not be
necessary to allego or prove tho mum n
of any of tho employes engaged on
such trniu, but the simple fact of the
train being run. Tho defendant must
justify himself by proof that buoh
employes noted iu direct violation of
tho orders and rules of the defendant;
provided, always, that whenever any
train ou any railroad iu this state hav¬
ing in such train one or more cars
loaded with livo stock, which train
slmll be delayed beyond schedule time,
shall not l>o required to lay over on
tho lino of tho road or route during
Sunday, but may rnu on to the point
where, by duo course of sh’pmout or
consignment, tho next, stock pen on
tho route may be, where said animals
may be fed aud watered ncaording to
the facilities usually afforded for such
transportation. And it shall be lawful
for all freight trains ou tho different
roads iu this state, running over said
roads ou Saturday night, to run
through to destination; provided tho
time of arrival, according to tho sched¬
ule by which tho train or traiimstartcd
ou the trip, shall uot bo later than 8
o’clock on Sunday morning.”
Attorney General Terrell lias been
defending the stale in tho legal contest
against the railroads, aud h> position
has been sustained by Iho supreme
court of the United States, although
somo of tho finest legal talent of the
country has been arrayed against him,
Tho railroads have tacitly agreed to
make a test ease of tho Alabama Great
Southern case, and have con toted their
fight on that point. Tho brief aud ar
gument of Attorney General Terrell
cited a great number of iustauocs to
sustain his position.
Tho question now is, wlmt will tho
roads operating iu and through Geor¬
gia do? A great number of indict¬
ments aro now ponding tho decision,
nnd it rests with tho solicitors general
as to whether they will bo nrosecub d
or whether the roads will be allowed to
pay the costs nnd have tho indictment)
dismissed.

Uecelver Brown Asks That the Gov¬
ernor's Flues lio Set Aside.
Julius L. Brown, receiver of tlu
Georgia Mining Manufacturing nnd
Investment company, ha< filed a peti¬
tion in the snp< rtor court, at Atlauta,
asking that the action of the governor
iu imposing fines upon penitentiary
camps Nos. 1, ” au 1 3 b > set aside.
The petition, which is lougthy and
elaborate, states that the ti'i'ng of tIt
lessees was uot in oecordu-ic - with tin
law aud iu so doing thogiv rnor • X
cede l his authority and jurisdiction,
Ueociver Brown alleges that Jhe Ian
lias been complied with, and that tin
eoU,vie!s were well fi d and eared for,
attaching an itemized statement o‘ the
supplies aud clot hi lg alette 1 to each
camp.
Tt is charged thit the acts of the
whippiug hoses w.re the nets of tin
state and the companies nre not ic
sponsible, ns the whipping b as«e*were
appointed by the governor and not by
th) lessees, lie iusi-ts tbit the p>ui-
tenitary companies are in no way liable
for any act* of the whipping bosses
ami believes tbo re ponsibilily rests they
alone with the stale, whose agents
wore.
lteoiivcr Brown takes tlie portion
that as tho lease ef coLvicta was entered
into between tho state and thoie com-
punios, the governor had no right to
impose a Hue and could Co nothing
more than cancel the lease and take
hack the convicts. lie heli jvos the
governor should declare the loiae for¬
feited , and should toko iu‘o the pos¬
session uud control of tbos'ato all con¬
victs now held by tho pi ni utiary
companies. that
ft is also stated in the petition
tho companies controlling the convicts
have lost money i n !er tho leas', as
Iho ruou wero well fed, guarded ar d
oared for at an euormous expense.
Receiver Brown says if the courts
honld decide that ho must pay tho
amount of the fines, which for tho
three companies is $1,750, ho has not
tho funds with which to pay thi
amount as thore is nothing in the
treasury of tho company for this puy-
ment.
The only solution of the mnttor, ns
viowod by Mr. Brown, is to let tho
governor forfeit tho lease and take
hack to tho control of th« stato the
convicts, which oro to bo Uflod in any
way that may be decided upon in the
fuluro.

NATIONAL i’KOIlIim’IONISTS.
Single! latform Adopted and Candl
dates Nominated.
At the national prohibition conven--
tion in cession nt Pittsburg, tho fol¬
lowing single plank platform was
adopted :
“The [robibition party in national
convention assembled declares its firm
convictions that tho manufacture, ex¬
portation, importation nnd sale of al¬
coholic beverages has produced mch
social, commercial, industrial,political
wrongs, and is now so threatening the
perpetuity of all our social uad politi¬
cal institutions that the suppression of
the same by a u vlioual party, organ¬
ized therefor, is tho greatest object to
bo accomplished by vot-rs of our
e.mntry; is of such importune’, that
it, of right, ought to control Iho politi¬
cal action of nil our patriotic citizens,
until sueh suppression is accomplished.
The urgency of this camo demands
tho union, without further delay, of all
citizens who desire tho prohibition of
tho liquor traffic; therefore, bo it
“Resolved, That wo favor the legal
prohibitiou by state and national leg¬
islation of tho manufacture, importa¬
tion, exportation and sales of alcoholic
beverages. That wo declare our pur¬
pose to organize and uuito all the
friends of prohibition into our party,
and in order to accomplish this end wo
deem it but right to leuvo every prohi¬
bitionist tho freedom of his own con¬
victions upon all other political ques¬
tions, and trust our representatives to
take such actiou upon othor political
qu -stions as tho chaugusoccasioned by
prohibition aud tho welfare of tho
whole people shall demand.”
Tho name of ex Governor Hughes,
of Arizona, was proposed, but it re¬
ceived no second aud was withdrawn.
Tho dropping of tho financial ques¬
tion, woman’s suffrage, otc., from the
platform, caused about two hundred
delegates lo bolt.
The bolting delegates who withdrew
fr< m tho prohibition convention held
a meeting aud organized tho “oationat
party,” with “home rule” their motto.
A platform was adopted embodying
tho minority report xvhich was sub¬
mitted by tho prohibiten broad gauge
faction, but rejected by the conven-
tion.
C. E. Bt’utley, of Nobrasks, was
nominated for president aud <T. H.
Southgate, of North Onroliua, for vice
president.
