Brief Bnt Interesting Summary
of Happenings in the State.
State Pays Rewards.
Governor Candler has just paid to
Detective J. M. Hewitt, of Atlanta, tho
sum of $300 for three rewards of $100
each. The rewards were offered for
the arrest of John McKemsie, John
Pace and James Polk DeMooney, who
were last week convicted in the supe
rior court of Campbell county as ac
cessories In the murder of Sterling
Thompson. Thompson Is the negro
who was lynched by white men in
Campbell county.
Tills makes $700 the governor has
paid out of the state treasury on ac
count of this murder.
The governor also paid a reward .o
J. C. Howard, sheriff of Gregg county,
Texas, for the arrest of a white man
by the name of Frank Kemp, wiio,
with his brother, Tom Kemp, was con
victed a year ago in the superior court
of the crime of murder and sentenced
to life imprisonment in the peniten
tiary. After their conviction and be
fore being carried to the penitentiary
they made their escape from jail
About six months ago Tom Kemp was
captured and returned to the peniten
tiary and Is now serving his sentence
in the Decatur county camp.
State In Prosperous Condition.
With twenty-one counties to hear
from, the increase In the property val
ues of the s-tate amounts to $13,W7.-
725.
The following counties, all of which
show increases, have, within the last
few days been received by the comp
trailer general:
Bibb .... $ 339,764
Irwin.. .. . 134,257
Chattooga 15,136
Butts .. . . 143,537
Gwinnett. 166,011
Camden .. 334
Rabun .. 8,287
Sumter .. . 236,144
Taliaferro 2,975
Coffee .. . 154,026
Jefferson . 84,891
Twiggs .. 77,704
Whitfield 89,675
Terrell .. . 245,853
Total.............. $ 1,823,204
101 counties previously re
ported .... .. .. 12,078,521
Total increase........$13,901,725
The increase will not reach $20,000
000 , as predicted, but will probably
be more than $15,000,000, which shows
that the state of Georgia is in a very
prosperous condition.
* * *
Will Not Decline Nomination.
Hon, Henry G. Turner, of Brooks
county, all but announces himself a
candidate in the gubernatorial lists
along with Hon. J. M. Terrell, Hon.
Dupont Guerry,' Hon. Pope Brown and
Hon. J. H. Estill.
While deprecating fhe condition
which has brought out candidates for
the governorship almost a year be
fore such announcements are ordina
rily made, there Is no mistaking the
language of the well known Brooks
county citizen when he says:
“Here are the people of more than
thirty counties who, for many years,
through all the vicissitudes of a try
ing political era, have given me their
unwavering confidence and support.
I have heard their cheers too often to
be indifferent to them now. Naturally
it would make me happy to see ail
their aspirations gratified. After full
consideration by friends and by me,
it is not likely that I will lightly or
without good cause declne their confi
dence.”
* * *
San Jose Scale Vanquished.
The dread San Jose scale, which
caused so much apprehension when it
made its appearance in this state sev
eral years ago, is completely under the
control of the fruit growers of Georgia.
State Entomologist Scott states
that from reports of growers at the
state Horticultural convention the
past week, the treatment which he
prescribed has proven very successful,
and that the damage done by the scale
in Georgia was reduced to a minimum,
and that in the course of a very short
time it would be entirely eradicated.
*
Fertilizer Record Broken.
Georgia’s consumption of fertilizers
for the season just about closed was
in the neighborhood of 500,000 tons.
The exact figures from the books of
the department of agriculture when
they are given (Wit in the bulletin of
the commissioner, which will be with
in a few days, will not vary more than
a few hundred tons one way or the
ofRer from half a million.
This is a remarkable increase in tha
the consumption of fertilizers for tho
state, the largest amount ever used
before in one season being in 1897-’98.
The sales that season aggregated 424,
081. It will be seen, therefore, that
tli© present season surpasses the big
gest season ever known before by
something like 75,000 tons. The reve
nue from the sale of tags this year has
been about $50,000.
• * *
Trouble Awaits Mormons.
A gentleman who has just returned
to Waycross from the Millwood dis
trict of Ware county furnishes the in
formation that there is probably some
trouble ahead foe the Mormons who
have been making that section head
quarters if they persist in their efforts
to teach their doctrine agailwt irbe
wishes of the citizens of the com
munity. It is alleged that they have
made some converts in that section,
and their followers say they shall
preach In the school building, which,
it will be remembered, was claimed to
have been broken into by them some
weeks ago, and some of the best citi
zens of Millwood say that if they at
tempt it again there is sure to be troj
ble.
* * *
Postoffices Advanced.
The Greensboro, Mlllen and Monte
zuma post offices have shown such a
aiuyaig increase In postal receipts
.
.hat the department at Washington
as ordered theLr advancement from
the fourth class to the third class. In
each of these offices the postal re
ceipts arc now $ 1 100 a decided In
, ,
crease from those of last year.
* *
Will Pay Shortage In Full.
The United States Guaranty and Fi
delity Company, of Baltimore, will pay
the shortage of Tax Collector San
ford, of Floyd county, to the state of
Georgia on Monday, August 19.
The $25,000 deposited with the state
treasurer will not be molested, as the
company will pay the shortage In
cash. All the amount which shows on
the books of the comptroller general,
with the exception of certified insol
vency tax fi. fas., will be paid, which
will amount to about $15,000 or $16,
000 .
It appears that the actual shortage
is very small, and that the amount
shown on the books is far greater
than the amount collected by Tax Col
lector Sanford. This is caused by the
fact that the tax collector in waiting
on tax payers has laid himself liable
to ine state, which must be paid by nis
bondsmen, who may be reimbursed
when the amount is collected.
*
Well Known Doctor Assassinated.
G. J. Johnson shot and killed Dr. A.
T. Fricks from his horse without
warning, at Rising Fawn, Dade
ty, last Saturday morning.
has tor some time held a
grudge against Dr. Fricks on account
of some alleged wrong to his family.
Johnson fled at once.
Dr. Fricks was one of Dade county’s
oldest and most- influential citizens
and his death is deplored throughout
the county.
* * *
New Court House for Taliaferro.
The board of county commissioners
of Taliaferro county has let the
tract for the new- court house to John
McKenzie, of Augusta, fou $22,000.
Work will begin immediately after the
next term of the superior court, the
fourth Monday in this month. The
necessary funds are to be raised by
thirty year 4 1-2 per cent bonds. Tal
iaferro county’s present court houso
was built seventy years ago.
* * *
Road to Open September 1.
Work on the Hawkinsville and Flor
ida Southern is being pushed at a rap
id rate and the work train is running
from Pitts to within . three miles of
Hawkinsville now. President Pope
says that he expects to be running
trains by September 1st.
When completed this road will run
through one of the best timber sec
tions of Georgia and will no doubt pay
good dividends. The advent of the
road will be celebrated with a big
barbecue.
* *
Value Raised By Arbitration.
As a result of the arbitration as to
the value of the Augusta Telephone
Company, operating the Stroger tele
phone, it was determined that the
property be returned for taxation at
$ 22,000 instead of at about $18,000, ao
the owners had returned it.
* *
Guerry Gives Warning.
Hon. Dupont, Guerry, in a statement
given out for publication, puts his
friends and the impartial public on
notice “that they need expect no fair
ness to him or justice from The Ma
con Telegraph.” Mr. Guerry says
that paper garbled his speech made r-t
Pelham.
* * *
Brunswick Borrows Funds.
Brunswick’s finance committee has
borrowed $45,000 at 5 per cent per an
num. This will enable the city to
wipe cut all debts now hanging ovei
it and the Interest saved will be over
$ 1,000 per annum.
