PEATII OF TWO OL1) FRIENDS
MOVES HIM TO SADNESS.
PAYS TRIBUTE TO THEIR VIRTUES.
Itnrtow linn Ilcelur.-K L'nrlr Simon Peter
* Itlcliarileoii and Henry li. Plant
Were the Rent of Men.
Simon Peter Richardson and Henry
B. riant, two more of my friends,
have fallen asleep. They were not
my near and dear friends, hut they
were friends to humanity, and I am
human. I knew them well and was
always pleased with their presence. It
is a good sign when you are glad to
meet even an acquaintance—a good
sign for him and it is a good one for
you when your acquaintances meet
you gladly. Simon Peter Richardson
ministered here several years and I
was always cheered with his presence
and learned something I did not
know. He was a w-alking educator, a
man of wit and wisdom and of great
philanthropy. Sometimes he cut to
the quick, but his knife was sharp and
left no ragged edges.
I recall an
his earnest readiness to reply to a man
who refused a little charity to a very
poor blind woman who wished to go
to Ailanta to have I)r. Calhoun re
move a cataract from her eye. Simon
Peter very earnestly related her con
dition and her extreme poverty and
said, “Please give me half a dollar,
only half a dollar.” The merchant re
plied, “No, I can’t do it. We mer
chants are bled to death by these coun
try people and we have got to stop. I
tell you, Uncle Simon, wo are bled to
death, you must excuse me.” Simon
Peter looked at him as if he were
amazed. After a brief silence he
said, “Bled are you. Let me show
you something. He took off his long
linen duster, then unbuttoned the
wristband on his left arm, rolled up
the sleeve and pointing to two little
scars near the elbow* said, ‘A long
time ago a fool doctor tried to bleed
me and made those scars. He missed
the vein and got no blood,' but the
scars are there. I am afraid that is
the experience of n good many people
who ask a little charity for the poor:
They get no blood, but leave a scar. J >>
We who saw the point smiled audi
bly. The merchant’s face reddened
under the sarcasm. F c mu1(len]y
>
aiierrftnt the money draw and handed
a _ dollar to the old man, and said:
“Give this to her. I don’t want any
of your scars about me.”
The last year of his sojourn here
Uncle Simon took a vacation and
visited his old homp oi^ the Peedee
rivet,' in South Carolina. When he
returned he told me exultingly of the
good time he had and about a wonder
ful revival that occurred in his old
home church—the greatest‘revival he
said that ho had witnessed for many
years. “How many converts did you
take into the church,” said I. “The
first week,” said he, “we never took
in nary one, but we turned seventeen
out and purged the church. After
that the Lord blessed us and there is
many a church in this part of the
country that needs the same medicine. ”
Uncle Simon left his impression
upon the people of every community
in which lie lived. He was an earnest
man, a strong man, a man of convic
tions and was perfectly fearless in
maintaining them. Woe to the infidel
or skeptic or agnostic who encoun
tered him. Woo to the man who de
clined to go to church because he
didn’t feel the need of religion. No
doubt we have as good men now, but
the preachers are rare in any denwni
nation who are bis eqUPuo convinc
ing could and convening force. With Paul he
kav. “I have fought a good
fight. I have kept the faith.”
Mr. Plant’s photograph is before me.
What a broad, attractive, human-like
face. There is nothing of awe or
solemnity in his features that would
intimidate the approach of the hum
blest of bis race. “Knowing that, thou
■"•ast an austere man” did not apply to
h. n. Always dignified, always self
poised and earnest, be seemed as mueli
concerned for others as tor himself.
He was frank but careful in speech,
genial, uncomplaining and never wor
ried over business cares or disappoint
meats. His last letter to me. written
in r ebruary, was an autograph and is
n model of good old-fashioned pen
man ship. It is a large, open, honest
hand without blot or erasure, the
i s all dotted, the t s all crossed gnu
quotation marks where they .should
be. In speaking ot liis health, lit
says: “I have been sutiering, but am
yet oil deck and prepared in a moder
ate way to attend to my duties and ii
some measure be of benefit to tlie peo
,l 5 ' e -
I have taken note of him for nearly .
half a century and know of no greater
man -in the line of public progress ami
public benefaction. Many millionaires
have acquired fortunes from specula
tion—speculation that robbed others.
Many have built on foundations that
others laid and some have wrecked
ruihcans aud private enterprises on
purpose for their own profit, but Air.
Plant made honest plans in early life
and has by slow and sure degrees ex
pamled ami matured them. He has
added to values not only of his own
property, but ty that of communities
and states. He has proved himself
an unselfish friend to the south and
won the love and admiration of our
people. Shakespeare says, “The evil
that men do lives after them. The
fts.
“The good that men <lo lives after
thorn.” Good deeds are like the cir
cling waves that gently move to the
shore when a stone is cast into a pool.
Thoy never lose their influence. The
good that Mr. Plant has done for the
people has not been buried with him,
nor will be be. forgotten for genera
tions to come.
But the command is to “Close up!
Close up!” The old men die and
others step into their places—and the
world moves on. “Close up” is heard
all along the line.
“Friend after friend departs,
Who has not lost a friend?
There is no union hero of hearts
That has not here an end.”

DAD OIL IN GEORGIA.
state Chemist Makes Sensational Report,
A Seizure at Griffin.
'lhe tests of State Chemist J. M.
McCandless of the oils sold in Geor
gia, which \*ere concluded a day or
two ago, have established the startling
conclusion that Georgia is made th#
dumping ground for a large bulk of
the refuse illuminating oil put on the !
ninrket by some of the biggest con
cerns in the country.
Ten thousand gallons have been
virtually seized at Griffin and are sub
jeet to confiscation.
Out of thirty samples of oil referred
by the commissioner of agriculture to
the state chemist for analysis, after a
test being made of them by the differ
eut state inspectors through whose
hands they passed, it has been found
be thut, allowed only two out of the thirty would j
to enter New York by the
laws of that state.
With the facts now before him,
Commissioner Stevens is prepared to
take such steps as will effectually pro
tect the people ... of the state and , pre
vent in the future the shipment of
such oils as have barely passed through
heretofore under the present arohalb
and criminal law governing the sale of
0 ils.
the , law of , the , state requires that no
kerosene the fire test of which is less
thau .120 degrees Fahrenheit shall be
sold in Georgm. Of the thirty samples
of oil tested recently, while only two
of them could be sold in New Yofk,
nine of them failed to come up to the
test laid down by the law of Georgia
and were, therefore, subject to con
fiscation by the proper officials. Five

Tipton and Wynn Explato Heinous Crime
at Sevierville, Tenn.
Fleas Wynn and Cattlett Tipton,the
whitecap murderers of William and
Laura Whaley, expiated for their
crime (it Sevierville, Tenn., Wedues
day. The men had been confined in
the Knox county jail until Tuesday,
when they were taken to Sevierville
by Sheriff Thomas H. Davis and an
armed posse. It had been feared by
some that the original whiteeaps might j
make an effort to rescue Wynn and
Tiptou, but no trouble was encoun
tered. j
The crime for which these men were
bunged was one of the most heinous
in the history of east Tennessee. In
December, 189(3, they went to tho
mountain home of William Whaley,
an innocent and unoffending tenant on
Bob Catlett’s farm, and boldly shot
down Whaley and his wife. Mrs.
Whaley’s sister was in the house, un
discovered by the murderers, and her
sight of them resulted in their arrest
and conviction.
It was also alleged and developed
that Bob Cattlett, who is one of the
wealthiest meil in Sevier county, hired

Happenings In the State of Inter'
esting Import.
Tobacco Ke*nnrce# of Georgia.
Vice President John M. Eagan, of
the Central read is now engaged in
cultivating the tobacco interest of
Georgia. The Savannah News says
that some months ago the Central rail
road sent out hundreds of pamphlets
i bearing on the cultivation of tobacco.
' Information was given, showing the
best means to be followed in the pro
duction of the weed, and prospective
planters were warned against all the
enemies of the plant and weather and
other conditions against which they
have to guard. The pamphlets were
widely distributed, nearly every far
mer along the line of the Central rail
road in those sections best calculated
to produce good tobacco receiving one.
The pamphlets were not the only as
sistance furnished by the railroad,
It aided in sending out a lot of seed
for experiments. A firm in North
Carolina went into the thing with the
Central, and it and the railroad shared
the expense of sending out packages of
seed to all the farmers who wrote for
them. The seed were planted and cul
tivated under the rules laid down in
the book of instructions, and it is said
there are many living aloDg the line of
the Central railroad now have fine
patches of tobacco. Mr. Eagan is
well satisfied with the result of the
endeavor of the railroad to induce
the people to undertake the cul
ture of the plant in the country dis
tricts. He expects to see it develop
into an industry of great importance.
To Fix the Tnx.
Hon. L. M. Trammell, chairman of
the Georgia railroad commission, and
H on. James M. Robinson, of Marietta,
have been appointed by Governor
noiuller spt.tle tli« ttinniita ™i,,w,
has arisen as to the valuation valuation of of the the
property of the Chattanooga Southern
ra ilroad.
Some time ago the comptroller gen
era ] declined to accept the sworn re
turns of the road for taxation and
Chairman Trammell was appointed to
represent the state in an arbitration
agreed upon, and Hon. Alex. C. King
was named as the representative of the
Chattanooga Southern.
These gentlemen were authorized to
select cr; thircl member who was o act
*— p
agree upon a valuation of the property.
Several meetings have been held, but
not only did they fail to agree among
themselves, but they could not agree
”P on the third mail who was to act as
an umpire in the event a disagreement
resulted.
It then became Governor Candler’s
< lnt y to appoint arbitrators and this
was done. The gentlemen named by
the governor will begin at once their
liew (lnties ftlKl a report from them
wiu 1)6 matched with interest by the
state aml the railroad company,
The figures which were furnished
Comptroller General Wright were not
accepted because lie believed the
property returned was worth several
times the amount of valuation placed
in the returns and he notified the
ro^id that lie could not accept the fig
rues and the arbitration was agreed
upon, resulting as stated in a failure
to agree aud the necessity of the state
naming the board of arbiters.
Quitman’s Yarn Mill.
The yarn mill to be established at
Quitman is now an assured fact. It
was desired to raise $50,000 for the
enterprise and $55,000 has been sub
scribed. Mr. Will Spain put in $5,000
after th erequisite $50,000 w as raised.
At a recent meeting a name was de
ci,led 011 for tlie company, tbe Atlan
tic and Gulf Cotton Mills. Work will
begin shortly on the mill.
To Fight System.
A determined campaign will be
waged ugainst the fee system which
prevails in the state offices. The At
lanta Business Men’s league lias taken
the first decisive step against the sys
tem and in a letter recently written by
President C. A. Collier to the chamber
of commerce some severe blows are
directed at the system.
'
The Fulton county grand jury
suggested that the league open
finrlit on the svstem nml the
league adopted the suggestion. The
fight will be waged with vigor and de
termination and letters similar to that
sen t to the chamber of commerce will
be mailed to the heads ot all the busi
ness organizations in the piincipal
cities in the state,
It is hoped by this means to arouse
a feeling against the system that will
result in legislative enactment to wipe
out the fee system.
A Flood of Applications.
The decision of the war department
! to muster the army to its full limit
under the Hull bill and to call for at
least 10,000 additional volunteers, has
induced a flood of applicants to Gov
ernor Candler from every part of the
state for offices varying from colonel
S j to second lieutenant.
The great majority of the applicants
j write under the impression that a cer
I tain number of appointments, at least,
in the volunteer service will be placed
at the disposal of the governor of
Georgia, while President McKinley has
announced throiigh the war depart
ment that all appointments under the
; new agreement will be made by him.
New Convict Law » Success.
The quarterly report of the state
j pleted P™ 01 ? and commission filed with which Comptroller was com
! I *• ** «**«
amounts to over $50,000, and that the
times as much revenue as the old sys
tem did in former years.
Chairman Tnrner, of the prison
commission, predicted some time ago
that under the new lease of convicts
which went into effect March 1st $200,
000 would be realized annually by the
state and that the effectiveness of the
system would be correspondingly
benefited and improved. The predic
tion of Chairman Turner is shown by
a review of the statement of the prison
commission to be thoroughly accurate,
since for one quarter the sum ol $50,
000 is realized from the hire of the
convicts.
Jail Delivery at Fairburn.
A wholesale jail breaking occurred
at Fairburn last Saturday afternoon. confined
There were fifteen prisoners
in the jail, twelve colored and three
white. Ten of these secured their lib
erty. escaped George Ta
Those who are
tum, Howard Hindman, Joe Varner,
Isam Brown, John Jamison, John
Owens, Henry Callaway, Clem Watts,
Claud Briant and Milton Sewell.
Four of these, Tatum, BrowD, Jam
ison and Watts, are regarded as des
perate characters and were charged
with assisting to burn Palmetto last
January. They were the four out of
the nine who escaped the fury of the
mob the night five were killed in the
warehouse in Palmetto. The others
who escaped from jail were charged
with various misdemeanors. The five
who remained in jail could have gone
if they had desired, but made no effort
to get away.
Reunion of Veterans.
The Seventh Georgia Infantry Vet
erans’ Association will meet in Car
rolton on July 21st. There are- many
surviving members of this regiment,
and their annual reunion is always an
occasion of unusual interest.
Carrollton invited the veterans to
hold their reunion in that city this
year and the invitation was accepted
promptly by the survivors of the reg
iment. They were anxious to go to Car
rollton because of the reputation that
city has made for hospitality.
The Atlanta and West Point rail
road has given special rates for the oc
casion, and the fare will be so cheap
that all membrrs of the association
will be able to ftttend.
State Sues Corporation.
The state of Georgia has instituted
suit against the Atlanta Railway and
Power company, the Atlanta Consoli
dated Street Railway, the Trust com
pany of Georgia and the Alauta Rail
way company, charging that the re
cent consolidation of the three trolley
lines in the city of Atlanta destroys
competition and amounts to a monop
oly of the electric transportation of
passengers in certain sections of the
city.
Will Celebrate Historical Event.
The centennial anniversary of the
adoption of a seal by the state of Geor
gia will be appropriately celebrated
this year.
Ex-Governor Northen has for some
time been making preparations to have
the opening day of the state fair espec
ially set aside for the celebration of
this historical event, and it is beyond
doubt that the occasion will be one
worthy of the memory of a hundred
years. will be arranged
A special program Several
suitable to the occasion,
prominent speakers will be obtained
for the occasion and will be invited by
the committee on arrangements in
time for them to accept the invitations
and prepare addresses and historical
papers of the hundred years’ develop
m G> ut and progress,
„ ‘It is the aim of the officers of the
state fair,” said ex-Governor Northen,
“to have the opening day of the fair
set aside as a special centennial day,
to celebrate the adoption of the seal of
the state of Georgia.”
GIFT TURNED DOWN.
Carload of Georgia Melons Sent to Bryan
Is Refused.
A dispatch from Lincoln, Neb.,
says: William J. Bryan has refused,
by proxy of his wife, to accept either
a carload of Georgia watermelons or
the unpaid freight bill for the same.
Some warm - hearted southerner,
whose idea of the silver man’s eating
powers was apparently somewhat over
drawn, seut the gift from Marion, Ga.,
with compliments.
The shipment was received a day
too late. As Mr. Bryan was out of
the city and as the family felt unequal
to the task of disposing of the fruit.
Mrs. Bryan declined, with thanks, to
accept the melons—or the unpaid
freight bill.
