That injunction!
Much ado about nothing!
Xo intention of crowing the track!
The Montgomery Advertiser contained
a sensational article about an Injunction
that the Montgomery and Eufaula road,
basing their action on alleged fear that
the Sam road intended crossing their
track into Montgomery. The entire af
fair ia a tempest In the tee pot.
Captain H. C. Bagley was seen by a
Tim ks-Recorder reporter In regard to
the matter and says: “Xo attempt has
been made or contemplated by the Sam
road to cross the Montgomery and Eu
faula track except in strict accordance
with the terms of the contract which has
been drawn up and signed by the re
spective parties some weeks ago. The
building of the trestle relerred to it on
property owned by the Sam road and
has been done to avoid any delay that
might arise when the road was ready to
make the crossing referred to. The
Central seems to have construed the
building of this trestle as the Initial
step of the Sam road to force a crossing
without regard to the contract that had
been signed, and their hasty action is
the result of their misconception of the
purposes of the Sam road.
As no differences exist between the M.
dJE. road and.the Sam as to the construc
tion of this contract I presume that
the injunction will be dissolved.
This contemplated track is Intended to
lead up to some up-town lots of the Sam
railroad, and it was not proposed to
nse it for a month or six weeks at least
In the mean time the Sam railroad, hav
ing dosed its contract with the Western
of Alabama will run its trains Into the
union depot over the tracks of that road
and all of its through and local freights
will be bandied in the same manner.
The through freight schedule will be
instilled on Monday and the passenger
schedule the latter part of next week.
The sensational reports current now
concerning the interruption to the traf
fic arrangement at Lyons are muoh ex
aggerated. All local and through busi
ness originating on the Sam road la
taken by the S. A W. at Lyons on the
same terms as heretofore, whloh ia of
course the bnlk of our business seeking
Savannah.
They refused to continue the prorata
n through business to auob points as
Atlanta, Macon, Birmingham, Griffin
and Columbus, on the ground that those
points were not reached by our line, and
was in their exdusive territory. The
business from such points we now divert
from Helena and Jessup to Savannah
and Brunswick ”
VICE-PRESIDENT WILSON
Ihbh a Manifesto that Is of Importance to
All Alllaaeomen*
To the Officers and Members of the
Farmers’ Alliance of Georgia—Brethren:
The absence from the state of our presi
dent, Hon. L F. Livingston, whose con
gressional duties call him for several
months to the national capltol, devolves
upon me the duties attached to the pres
idency of the state alliance.
In assuming the same I bespeak your
cordial and generous support; your pa
tient forbearance end your oharitable
criticisms, and In return I promise you
my honest endeavor; faithfully to bring
to the performance of those duties what-
everof energy or ability I may possess;
seconded by a sincere desire for the
utmost success of our beloved order and
its golden principles.
Harmony In council, forbearance in
judgment, and that eternal vigilance
which is the price of every good,will cer
tainly insure our ultimate and
speedy triumph In all worthy alms.
For these let us labor in confidence and
hope t
All communications intended for the
President of the Georgia State Alliance
must be addressed to me, until further
notice, at Amerlcus, Ga.

Hon. Charles F. Crisp, for whom it has
been specially made and engraved, and
to whom it will be presented by his
Amerlous constituents as a slight token
of esteem for their fellow-townsman, who
by his own effort, his great ability and
his unswerving loyalty to the true prin
ciples of democracy, has risen to the
second highest office in our government.
The gavel will be placed In a beautiful
oak case made specially for It, having a
a solid silver name plate, on which will
be engraved the name of the present
speaker of the house of representatives.

The City of-Jerusalem.
This great masterpiece seems to-have
at once become popular as the patron
age last night would show. The pavil
ion on the court bouse square waa
crowded until a late hour, and some of
our most prominent ladles and gentle
men were among the visitors.
The exhibition is not of the usual class
of side shows and dime museums, but a
beautiful object lesson in sacred his
tory, as pure and chaste as the subjeot
from whloh It Is taken. Take yonr
children and see it. The exhibition
will be open from 1:00 to 8:00 and 6SO
to 9:00 p. m., dally at any time between
those hours it can be seen without any
delay.
Bats Tea tee It?
If not just go to Thornton Wheatley’s
new plaoe of business and see the newest
things in neck wear and full dress shirts.

' If you have not, It will pay you to go

now on exhibition daily on the old
court house square. Bring your opera
glasses with you.

Sprague's “Social Session’’ Company
drew another large audience last even
ing. This is one of the very few attrac
tions whose audiences increase with
each performance. The company Is one
of the best we have ever had in farce-
comedy, and is fully as good as “City
Directory,” “Parlor Matob," etc. The
performance is more than pleasing; It Is
excellent—Portland (Oregon) Orego
nian.

Watching St the Flfortf.
One of the most level-beaded and care
ful watchers of the market said yester
day In speaking of cotton: “Xo, Ido
not expect the receipts to fall off before
January, they will continue at about
the same rate as at present Conse
quently I am not calculating upon any
unusual advance In prloes. I still stick
to my estimate of 7,800,000 bales for
the crop, however, and have made sev
eral wagers on that-basis. Everything
has tended to a rapid marketing of the
crop this year, the splendid season for
harvesting and the necessities of the
farmers ohlefly. After Christmas there
will be a marked falling off and a corres
ponding advance in prices.” A number
of wagers are being made In this city as
to whether the orop will be 7,800,000
bales, 7,780,000 bales or 8,000,000 bales
or over, odds being asked on the high'
eat and lowest
Tax Notice.

Closed Doors.
Mr. W. J. Slappey, a prominent gro-
oeryman doing business on Forsyth
street was closed up by Deputy Sheriff
Lamar yesterday, who now holds the
keys, pending some satisfactory adjust
ment of the troubles. This action waa
taken by virtue of three fi. fas. issued In
behalf of the People's National Bank,
representing a sum approximating
$1,800.00.
Mr. Slappey will probably perfect
some satisfactory arrangement by which
he can resume business at the old stand.

Feaat of tbe Immaculate Conception.
The Feaat of the Immaculate Concep
tion was observed yesterday by Roman
Cathollos tbe world over. It la one of
the most important as well as one of the
moat ancient in the church calendar.
It ia certain that tbe feast had estab
lished itself in the calendar of the Ro
man chorch before tbe middle of tbe
fourteenth century. Sextus IV, toward
the clou of the fifteenth century, sanc
tioned an olljce and mass proper to the
day, for which, however, a new office
was substituted by Pius V. Clement
VHI made the feaat a greater doable,
Clement IX added an octave, Clement
XI made it a holy day of obligation, and
under Pius IX the office was again
changed and the feast entitled the “Im
maculate Conception of the blessed Vir
gin Mary.” The present pope, Leo
XIII, raised it to a double of tbe first
class.
“When pains grow sharp and rich
ness rages the greatest love of life ap-
» ” and this ia natural enough, for
know that most griefs are medici
nal and that Salvation Oil easily rube oat
pain. It coats only 25 cents.
