R. F. McKinme, one of Carnes

been busy during the week secur
ing subscriptions for the budding
of the bridge across Stephens
creek on the Western part of
Carnes ville. He has secured
eeough to build the bridge and
work will begin at once. The
Ordinary donaUd one hundred
dollars from the county and this
long needed bridge will be com
pleted in a few weeks. Numbers
of touring cars haye passed thro’
town recetly urging the good citi
zens of Carnesville to bridge this
creek so that the National High
wav could be through this part of
Franklin county instead of th e
present route. Tr'iUi the comple
Hon ot the Railroad, the mo.u
ment the creek bridged, the
new brick Methodist enureh and
many other improvements that
will be made in Carnesville—will
•
put on new life and energv in our
good little town which we have
long to see. The summer tourist
will be able to make the trip
much easier and quicker via
Carnesville than via Rovston.
We aie glad the citizens of
Carnesville and community decid
ed to bridge this creek for it is one
of the many things that Carnes
ville has long needed. Hurrah for
Carnesville!

Said Perry Will Hold
Race If Hawes
Wins Treasn-
rership.
An interesting question which
has ansin in connection with
the race for state treasurer is as to
the status of Ben F. Perry, assist
aft to the state treasurer, who
was appointed bv the fate Captain
R. E. Park, and retained in that
position by Treasurer J. Pope
Brown.
Mr. Perry has held this post
tion ably and acceptably now for
some two years. He is a member
0 f the Georgia Weekly Press As-
socia ti oni having for many years
been editor and proprietor of Tne
Canton Advance. Later he be¬
came a banker, and was called
from the bank at Canton to the
treasury department. He has,
therefore, manv friends in all
parts of the state.
It is definitely learned at the
State Capitol that if Hon. Pey¬
ton Jd. Hawes, of Elbert, is elect
ed State Treasurer, Mr. Perry
will be retained in his present po¬
sition. While Mr. Hawes him

self has made no statement on the
subject. Mr, Perry’s lriendo are
satisfied, and the statement to
that effect comes frem them.
Mr. Perry at one time thought
of making the race for treasurer,
and received many offers of sup¬
port. Owing to tne fact, how"
ever, that his present duties
would not permit of his making
a canvass of the state, he decided
not to become a caedidate and so
announced.— Atlanta Coasti tu-
