OFFICIAL CALL FOR
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
Atlanta, May 21. —Georgia’s
state Democratic Executive Com
mute will meet in Atlanta Sat
urday, .1 une 4, at 12 o’clock noon,
the call, which is brief, having
been issued to-day by Chairman
Hewlett A. Hall of Newnan. Tne
call, mailed to each member to
day, is as follows:
“To the members of the Demo
cratic State Executive Commit
tee of Georgia:
“A meeting of the Democratic
State Executive Committee will
be held in Atlanta, Saturday,
June 4,1910,in the Kimball House
at 12 o’clock noon. A full attend
ance is urged.
“H. A. Hall,
Chairman.
“Benjamin M, Blackburn,
“Secretary.”
This means the state guberna- j
tonal campaign will lie opened
up now m just a little more than ;
two weeks. Also that the cam
paign, what there is of it, will lie
decidedly short.
Inasmuch as the state primary i
will have to be called for about
the middle of August, it means a
campaign of not more than ten
weeks at the outside.
Georgians generally will wel
come this fact.
The committee will name a
date for the state primary and
another for the state convention,
which will have to lie held within
ten days or two weeks after the
primary so as to give the Secre- j
tary of State time to get printed
lists of candidates to the various
county seats thirty days before
the state election.
It will also lay down the rules j
for voting in the primary. It is
generally understood it. will be a
white primary in which every
qualified white voter who agrees
to abide the nominations will be
permitted to participate.
TWELVE YEARS UNDER WATER,
THE MAINE WILL BE RAISED.
Washington, May 15.—When
the wrock of the battleship Maine
is raised from the mud at the bot
tom of Havana harbor it is
thought to be the purpose of the
United States government to in
vite Spain to send expert en
gineers to be present at, the exam
ination of the hull, provided it is
found that the Spanish govern
ment desires or will accept such
an invitation.
It is probable also that it will
be intimated to to other naval
powers that this government
would be glad to have them send
representative experts. It ts
doubted by many if the condition
of the hulk, after this lapse of
years, would show whether or not
the battle-ship was destroyed by
an exterior or interior explosion,
but other experts say t hat the ac
tion of the water will not have
seriously affected the wreck.
While the Spanish government
has made no official representa
tions as to a desire to be
sented when the Maine is raised,
it is understood that it has been
officially intimated that Spain
would be gratified if such an in
vitation were extended.
Spain has always contended
that the Maine was destroyed by j
an internal explosion. If a Span
ish engiueer is invited to inspect
the wreck, the other oayal powers
will also be invited. If the at
tempt to raise the Maine is suc
cesftil a part of the metal will be
given for the erectiou of a nation
al monument to the survivors of
the historic vessel at New York.
STANDS FOR RE-ELECTION.
Atlanta, May 21.—Chairman
G. R. Hutchens of the state Pri-j
son commission to-day announc-i
ed he would lie in the race to suc
ceed himself. So far Mr. Hutch
ens has no opposition. Some
time ago R.E. Davidson of Greene
was talking of making the race
for prison commissioner,but whe
ther he will remains to be devel-j
oped.
Chairman Hutchens' was ap
pointed to the commission by
Gov. Brown upon the death of
Chairman Joseph S. Turner.
; RUSSELL WILL SOON |
STATE HIS PLATFORM.
Atlanta, May 20.—Judge Dick
Russell, candidate for governor, I
will announce about June first, or :
soon after the call has been issued
for the meeting of the state De
mocratic committee to set the
j date for the convention.
Judge Russell is now in Canada,
and he is expected to return home
about J une first .
Ex-Governor lloke Smith being
positively out of the race for
j governor it is equally positive 1
! that Judge Russell will make it.
His formal announcement, al
i ready forecasted, on the contin
gency that Mr. Smith would not
run, is a matter now of only a few
‘lays.
SCHOOL CLOSING.
On last Friday the Taylor
I Springs School came to a close
with exercises appropriate to the
occasion. Extensive preparations
had previously been made and
j everything was carried out in a
very orderly manner, reflecting
credit upon the community and
j honor to the school.
Fully four hundred people were
assembled as auditors and specta
tors and conducted themselyes ns
ladies and gentlemen always do.
The exercises began at ten
o’clock and lasted until five in
i
the atterdoon. Rev. Reese Griffin
spoke at eleven o’clock. His sub
ject, Tile Making of a School, was
ably handled and showed much
study and research. No doubt
this was the finest, educational ad
dress our community has heard
and many were the favorable
comments heard relative thereto.
Dinner was spread at, twelve
o’clock and such a sumptuous
feast it was 1 Like Brother Rab
bit, said, “i would like to have
it have one like it every Friday
in the year. To say the least, we
had plenty to eat.
Col. A. B. Hutcheson, efficient.
County School Commissioner,
delivered a noble speech and plea
in behalf of the schools of Mont
gomery county. His speech was
weli received and inspired ns all
| to greater and nobler efforts.
Prof. Geo. W. Threlkel address
ed the audience at three o’clock.
His speech was well received.
The students acquitted them
selves in a very creditable man
ner and the teachers have nothing |
but praise and honor to say of ;
them.
We are under many obligations
to Mr. Will Hilton of Vulalia and
Mr. Luther McCullough of Glen
ville for their excellent singing
upon this occasion. Both these
gentlemen are singers by nature
and men of whom any communi
ty may justly feel proud of.
With lasting gratitude to the
people of Taylor Springs commun
ity 1 shall ever cherish in my
heart the many kindnesses I re
ceived at their hands.
Very truly,
A. S. Howell.

NEGROES FEAR POISON.
Jefferson City, Mo , May 20.
There is a panic on among tin
seven hundred anil fifty negro
convicts at the penitentiary 1
through fear that Dr. B. C. Hyde,
recently convicted of the murder
of Colonel Thomas H. Swope,will
soon be an inmate of the prison*
They believe Dr. Hyde is a most
wonderful man, who can admin- j
i ister poison in such a secretive
way as to produce death without
I causing any suspicion to rest up
| on himself.
These convict negroes believe
that if Dr. Hyde reaches the pri
son he will be assigned to the
I hospital, anil could easily kill
them off with some subtle poison
and the world be none the wis<-r
j thereof. Already they are saying
; that, no matter how sick they
may become, nothing can induce
I them to enter the hospital if Dr.
I Hyde is there,.

1 The Tri-Weekly Constitution presents at one sweeping view the whole area of events. The
* news of the country, state, nation, and the world is given in each complete issue. Each week
the departments of harm and Farmers, Woman’s Kingdom, Great Agricultural South, Fann
ers’ Union, Rural Free Delivery, Poultry and others of wide interest, edited by experts, /
appeal directly to those addressed.
The Weekly Constitution contains all these special features and the difference between it
and The Tri-Weekly is that the one is issued once a week (qn Monday only) and the ■!
v other three times a week—Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
If you want the Constitution alone, without any clubbing offers, you can get the Tri-Weekly j

semi-monthly edited by a farmer on his own farm, and is intensely practical and helpful. J

indicates, and they are right up to date. Do not think they are all of the sylph like, hiplrss, I

are all pretty and becoming and up to date, so thaf the ladies may feel well-dressed and in f
