ced were immediately occupied by lliS‘

HARRIS MESSAGE
DISCUSSES MANY OF THE VITAL
“ISSUES AT LENGTH—TAKES
NOTE OF GENERAL IMPROVE
MENT CONDITIONS
Atlanta, Ga., June 29.—“ The 'sec
ond regular session of the present leg
‘islature finds the country improved,
so far as its general financial condi
tion is concerned” declared Gov. Nat
E. Harris in his message to the -Geor
gia legislature. Business has con
tinued to advance, and the recent low
prices of our farm products have be
come things of the past. The mer
chants are selling for higher profits
and in greater volume. The banks
are striving; money is easy, and the
people of the commonwealth, gener
ally, are in much better spirits, in ev
ery rvespect, than prevailed at your
last meeting.
“While the war still rages with un
abated fury across the fffean yet our
people have escaped its ravages, and
our country, up to this time, has been
free from attack by outside foes, save
a few incursions on the borders of
Mexico. )
“The call for the National Guard, it
is hoped, has been more to teach our
sister republic that the United States
is not as helpless as our critics have
sought to prove, rather than for the
purposes of serious warfare. The re
sult has certainly disclosed the fact
that a call to arms will be heard as
quickly, and answered as promptly
now, as was the same call in 1847 or
the tocsin in 1861.
“It is a pleasure for me to tell you
that our - state. met the demand as
readily, and that our guard was in the
field, equipped and officered, as quick
ly, as occurred in any state in the Un
ion—that the Georgia boys felt the
same patriotic ardor as those in New
York or Massachussetts or any other
Commonwealth of the Union. In thir
ty six hours after the word came our
ranks were filled, our organizations
completed, and our men stood at their
armories with guns in their hands
awaiting the word of command from
the National Head.”
Governor Harris also discussed the
national guard and the army reor
ganization act, passed by congress,
calling attention to the requirements
placed vpon this state precedent to
securing its benefits.
| Among other subjects discussed in
ithe message were the lease of the Wes
i:orn & Atlantic railroad the anti-par
zllelling act, lynch law, compulsory
lmlucation, prohibition laws, local leg
iglation, highway commission, state
}'.varehouse system, state finances, in
lieritance tax, labor legislation, exemp
tion of college endowment fromtaxa
tion, litigation with copper compan
ies, and four-year term for governor
and the state-house officers. :
The governor showed that the Wes
rn & Atlantic railroad is the best
»f all the tangible assets of the state
»f Georgia. He said the prospect 01"
leasing the road seems very favor-|
able.
Referring to the prohibition laws
macted at the extraordinary session |
of the legislature called by Governor
Harris, and for which Georgia prohi
bitionists give him full credit, the
rovernor shows the great benefits tlmt;
have followed its operation of ucarly
two months. Bank deposits have
‘argely increased in all the cities;the
merchants are selling more goods to
customers; there is more work in
srogress, and a general improvement
has resulted in nearly all the lines of |
‘busines throughout the state. Hei
points out that the law is being well
Anforced, and there seems to be a dis
position to give the statutes a fair
‘rial -in every locality. He recom-‘
Imends compensation for the ordinaries
of each county for filling statements of‘
aach shipment of intoxicating bever
‘ages, as required under the law. !
The message of Governor Harris is
of unusual length, as it goes thorough
ly into the various subjects that he
takes up. It is regarded by law-mak
ars as a particularly strong document
and shows the close investigation
which the executive has made into
matters connection with his adminis
ration. The governor expects to
send special messages on the W. & A.
problem and other matters.

AMERICAN RANCHER AND HIS
WIFE SLAIN; TROOPS PURSUE
Columbus, N. M. June 28.—Will
Parker, owner of Parker’s ranch, 35
miles southwest of Hotchita, and his
wife, were murdered, presumably by
Mexican bandits today, according to
Ynformation received here by relatives.
American cavalry already have start
ed in pursuit ¢f the murderers and if
necessary willl cross the border. At
the time of the murder the bandits ran
off approximately twenty-five horses,
which military officials believe will
‘assist them in finding the trail.

GENERAL WOOD SEES NEED
OF CHANGING MILITIA SYSTEM
New York, June 28.—Maj.Gen. Wood
issued a statement today in which he
decleared that “the present system, or
rather lack of system, of equiping the
state militia for active duty was the
main reason for delay in the mobili
zation and of sending the trops to the
border.”
The militia is not permitted under
existing laws, he said to Keep extra
field equipment in their armories and
as a result when the call {o arms came,
rifles, canteens, clething, etc., had to
be obtained from the nearest arsenal.
There is no reserve supply of horses,
necessitating purchase in the open
market and their trainaing before theyi
can be used. |
“This is far different from the reg
ular army system and from the re
serve system of European nations,”
continued Gen. Wood. “A European
reservist can always leave San Fran
cisco for the headquarters of his com
pany in his own country, and find
there waiting him in lockers every
thing he will need.
“The result of the Mexican trouble,
1 believe, will be reconstruction of the
system of equipping the national
guardsmen. In the future I believe
state organizations will have on hand
in their armories their own equipment.

If we all would practicc the
