All four had been tramping hloug the railroad when they*got into trouble,, One was tried at the regular term of Superior Court on a charge of burglary nnd acquitted. He was indicted by the Grand Jury fo r stealing a ride on a train and to this he plead guilty. Judge Eve sent him to the State Reformatory. The other three boys plead guilty to holding up a negro man and robbing him of $&50 in cash and a watch. This was at the time of the freight train wreck near Inalia, on the Georgia Southern and Florida, about two weeks ago. The wreck blocked the track and held up the pass enger train ou which the negro was rid ing. The theory was advanced at one time that the boys wrecked the freight for the purpose of robbing pussengerg on the truin following but there was little or nothing to support this . It was thought that the hoys were hoboing ou the train. Judge Eve sent two of the boys to the State Reformatory and allowed the other to pay a fine. This boy was the son of Mr. Aiken of Lee county, who thought his son was visiting relatives at their old home at Rockmart until he got » letter saying he was in Turner county jail. He promised to start a little re formatory of his New Orleans, and bad hoboed all through the Southeast. Another said he was from Kentucky, but the fourth declined to give his home.

As to whether or not thj» State Highway Commission can at this time, or some early date, make such contract as is contemplated by the late act of the legislature creating said Commission, with counties now in funds and ready to proceed with their road construction, for immediate construction of roads approved by uml under the supervision of the Com mission, and for refund of the cost there-' "Wliip it to Tifton. completed or at Borne early date thereafter. d. As to the width, tpaterial and gene ral character of roads which will be gene rally adopted'or approved by the Commis sion us Q part of the state system. As to whether or not, -on roads al ready adopted and approved .as a project to be constructed partly from Federal aid allowances, which such projects may like wise he adopted and approved as part of o state highway, it Is now practicable or ermissable upon proper application to the Highway* Commission representing the Federal nid, to change such Fgderal aid project to other roads of the' several coun ties which will not form parts of the state system. Whereupon motion was made and adopted that the* Chair appoint from the body present a Committee to be composed of one member from each county represe n ted at the meeting, to appear before the State Highway Commission to be held on Friday the 2Ctli, and present to the Commission the several questions above outlined for discussion, pod for such information thereon as the Commission ight then be able to impart. Upon further motion duly carried, the Chair then appointed a subcommittee nnposed of Messrs. C. C. Thomas, T. G.

McLeod, cashier of the ^tank of Tifton, made quite uu impres- |ion on those present in a general talk (to the tobacco question and offered a* resolution that an association be formed be called “The Tobacco Men’s Asso ciation,” and that a committee of seven be \ named, consisting of three business men. three farmers and one banker, the Vesolution. was passed by a unani mous \voto. A motion was made by Rev. CSyW.

Messhs. Phillips.

Mr. Editor: It seems that our County Commissioners as welUfi the citizens of the county generally, have an unexpected problem to deal with, which has been im posed by the State Engineer and the Government Engineer if we ar c to re ive government aid or state aid in our ad paving projects. My interest in this inattA- is general. •*nly that of any other taxpayer in the county. But if we are not going to he able tn-pnve the present roadbed of the National Highway as was contemplated by practically every voter who supported the bond issue, and are compelled to make costly changes in supposedly the uio permanent road in the county in order I get government aid and state aid. tl first question to he determined is whethi ,v c want government and state aid undi •uch conditions? If it is decided that we shall accept aid under siirh conditions, I think tin suggestions of R. K. Hinsniore in Wed nesday's Gazette are sound and should be carefully weighed. From my present information. I endorse said article fully. The people will n*»t he satisfied to cut out lower crossings on the Highway and » the oil mill crossing, really the most dangerous crossing o n the road, nnd not now as dungerous as it will he when more improvements are made at that poiut. must not let personalities euter into this matter. If the crossing problem has to be solved let’s solve it correctly, ithoiit reference to who is affected by ic change. Resjioctfully, W. H. WILLIS.
