Industry.

Big Plant For Athens.
It is officially announced in Athens
that the Southern Cotton Oil Company
have completed plans and obtained the
site for the erection of one of the larg
est oil mills and fertilizer plants in the
state. The amount of money to be
expended is $200,000. Their chief en
gineer has been in the city for a week
maturing and completing plans for the
company. They already have a plant
In Athens, but this will probably be
torn down and made completely new.
Bank Examiner Starts Out.
State Bank Examiner W. B. Albert
son has started on his annual exami
nation tour of the banks of the state.
He has over 135 institutions to look
into, and he will be engaged nearly all
the year. Mr. Albertson is experienced
in banking affairs and is a very compe
tent official. State Treasurer Park

of examination. He will assist Mr.
Albertson as much as possible.
*
Johnston a Candidate.
Mark Johnston, of Milledgeville, has
made his formal announcement as can
didate for state school commissioner.
He says that he favors uniform
books and a stoppage of the les% ,
such as the expenditure of $71,000 par
year for school supplies and $10,000
per year for postage. Mr. Johnston
says he will work in accord with the
county school commissioners of the
state, as he thinks that through them
is the best way to make a successful
administration.
*
Tech Needs More Money.
Captaip Lyman Hall, president of
the Georgia School of Technology,
says the institution is in need of funds
to complete the furnishing of the new
buildings recently finished and to in
stall some new machinery which has
been donated by machinery manufac
tureers.
Owing to the large amount of money
it took to finish the work on the build
ings the funds of the school have run
very low, and Captain Hall and several
friends of the institution have been at
work for some time on a scheme to get
a few more donations.
Blodgett For Atlanta Postmaster.
Colonel Edwin F. Blodgett will be
formally appointed postmaster of
lanta by President Roosevelt. His
pointment was definitely determined
on a day or two ago, and the official
papers will be forwarded to the
. Advices received in Atlanta Saturday
from Washington contained the news
of the appointment. Colonel
also received a telegram from Captain
Evan P. Howell, who is in the
al capital, informing him that both the
president and postmaster general had
agreed to his appointment, and that
would be sent to the senate
ately.
To Exhibit In July.
The exhibit of the Manufacturers’
Association of Atlanta will begin on
July 9th. The length of time it will
continue has not yet been decided.
This was decided upon at a meeting
of the general committee of the Manu
facturers’ Fair Association which was
held a day or two ago in the office of
the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce.
The committee on location was in
structed to secure a place for holding
the fair at once. The committee was
instructed to rent the location for the
month of July, with the privilege of
obtaining the place for the following
month at the same price.
President J. K. Orr and Secretary
Walter G. Cooper were instructed to
issue circular letters- to the manufac
turers of Atlanta, requesting informa
tion regarding the amount of floor
space that they will require for thcW
exhibits.
Petition of No Avail.
Judge Henry overruled the petition
of three taxpayers of Floyd countv to
enjoin the three dispensary commis
sioners from proceeding with the es
tablishing the dispensary in Ro for
the county. Judge Henry granted a
perpetual injunction preventing the
city and county from any liability con
nected with the dispensary In the way
of debts.
The commissioners can now proceed
to establish the dispensary and carry
the act into effect. The dispensary
people claim that the Injunction pre
venting the city from becoming liable
for any debts connected with the insti
tution is a complete victory for them,
that the supreme court will not enter
tain the petition of the taxpayers, for
the reason that they will have no cause
to complain, as they cannot be taxed
for the maintenance of the dispensary,
and therefore will not suffer any dam
age whatever.

Topographical Maps.
The United States geological sur
vey has completed a topographical sur
vey and prepared maps of Georgia,
Alabama and Mississippi. These
maps are sold at the rate of 5 cents
each, while for orders of 100 at one
time the price is 2 cents per map.
The United States geological survey
has been engaged since its organiza
tion in making a topographical survey
and map of the United States, The
maps are engraved on copper and
printed from stone, in three colors.
The cultural features, such as roads,
railroads, cities, towns, etc., as well
as all lettering, are in black; all water
features are printed in blue, while the
hill features are shown by brown con
tour lines.
For Georgia and Alabama each sheet
shows a tract from 980 to 1,030 square
miles, the area varying with the lati
tude. An act of congress, approved
February 18, 1897, prescribes that the
maps shall be disposed of by sale.
They are sold by the geological survey
at Washington.
An Outing For Georgia Editors.
Members of the Georgia Press Asso
ciation will probably visit the Charles
ton exposition on Georgia day, April
15th. The following notice has been is
sued by President H. H. Cabaniss:
To the Members of the Georgia Press
Association and the Weekly Press
Associatioin of Georgia—
Many members of the newspaper fra
ternity of Georgia having expressed a
desire to visit the Charleston exposi
tion, we have taken up the matter with
railroad authorities, and have the con
sent of the railroads between Atlanta
and Charleston to furnish transporta
tion for every member of the Georgia
Press Association and the Weekly
Press Association of Georgia, from At- i
lanta to Charleston and return. This
transportation will be limited abso- j
lutely to bonafide members of these :
associations and one dependent lady
member of the immediate families of
the members of the two associations.
It is suggested as a proper time to
visit Charleston, that the members as
semble in Atlanta, prepared to leave
this city on the afternoon of Thursday,
April 14th at 3:10, arriving in Charles
ton on Tuesday morning, April 15th,
Georgia day, and returning leave Wed
nesday night, the 16th.
It is presumed that the editors wish
ing to take advantage of this trip can
provide themselves with transporta
tion to Atlanta. The Georgia railroad
will transport the party to Augusta
and return, and the Southern railway
will furnish transportation from Au
gusta to Charleston and return. Those
who have not transportation to reach
Atlanta can doubtless secure it by
making direct application to the au
thorities of the railroads coming to
Atlanta, the Central, the S. A. L., the
W. and A., A. and W. P. and the
Southern, the G. S. and F., the Plant
system and others,
It is of the utmost importance that
all who desire to go shall notify Mr.
Cabaniss on or before April 5th.

News of Disastrous Floods In North
Carolina Is Still Coming In—Some
Thrilling Incidents Related.
Flood neds continues to be received
at Asheville, N. C. The board of
county commissioners, in session
Monday say seven-tenths of all bridges
in the county are gone.
The railway situation -west is about
the same, An accommodation train
was run out toward Marshall Tuesday
afternoon,
News comes from Biltmore that Mrs
George Vanderbilt’s two favorite
horses were drowned and that their
coachman, housekeeper and several
others came within an inch of losing
their lives. They hung on trees and
buishes for an hour or more before
they were rescued by a ferryman,
The damage to railroads and county
roads is incalculable. It is said a new
railroad bed will be necessary to be
laid for miles.
A number of western towns have
been entirely cut off from all communi
cation with the outside world since
last Thursday. Special messengers in
all direction have been coming in
and report an awful situation
throughout the entire western section.
Passenger and freight trains are de
railed all along the line, still in the
same places where they stood four
days ago. Passengers are making the
best of it. A number of them hava
walked, while others rode horseback
to Asheville, a 50-mile trip.
