In Baking Powders,
66
Royal” Leads.
66 Old Capitol Building,
Atlanta, Ga., March 1, 1893.
I have purchased samples of the Royal and other
principal baking, powders sold in this city in the
open market, and analyzed the same. | find the
Royal to contain leavening gas in greater quantity
than [ have found in any other baking powder I
have examined. This powder is composed of whole
some and unobjectionable ingredients and is free
from adulteration.
JNO. M. McCANDLESS,
Chemist Atlanta Board of Health.
Economy requires that in every receipt calling
for baking powder the Royal shall be used. It
will go further and make the food lighter, sweeter,
of finer flavor, more digestible and wholesome.

A Child of the Forest,
The unique spectacle of a nearly fuil
blooded Indian was seen upon our streets
on last Saturday. His high cheek bones
and copper-colored face marked him as
one whose people were once ‘‘children
of the forest.” He came from a Virginia
tribe of Indians.
A Lovely Day.
Sunday was a perfect day, and all
nature did its best to hallow the associa

pastors, Rev. Dr. Patterson and Rev. Dr.
Scruggs, delighted large congregations
as they told the ‘‘old, old story” of the
cross o” Christ.

A Dawson Company Gets a Large Contract
From Atlanta.
That Dawson can and is holding her
own in the industrial world needs n«
further proof than one of its enterprises
has received a large order for material
from Atlanta, the leading city of the
south.
The Dawson Manufacturing Company
has been awarded the contract for build
ing a large hotel at East Lake, a big At
lanta enterprise. :'hus it is that a Daw
son firm, Dawson workmen and Dawson
material contribute to the growth of a
big city.
It is such as this that makes Dawson
grow!

Dull.
The last week was a phenomenally dull
one in Dawson; as dull as in mid sum
mer. The reason was that the farmers
of Terrell county are all hard at work
piiching their crops; looking to better
results this year than ever before. With
all of our farmers the programme of
half a week in Dawson and half a week
at home has played out, and common
sense and industry have been substituted.
Such being the fact, it is not strange
that Terrell countyis in the front rank.

THE LAW STANDS,
AND THE COLUMBUS SOUTHERN
. MUST PAY TAXES.
The United States Supreme Court Says the
Glenn Act Is Constitutional--Means
Many Thousands.
In legal circles there is a good deal to
say about the action of the supreme
court of the United States in the case of
the Columbus Southern railroad in at
tacking the Glenn railroad tax law.
Attorney General Terrell and Hon.
Clifford Anderson went,to {Washington
to argue the case before the supreme
court, the state su;’n-eme court haying
already upheld the law. Reports of the
court proceedings show that the state
supreme couyrt was sustained without
an issue being raised in argument. As
the lawyers putit, the court decided
against the railroad upon the showing
of its own attorneys, without listening
to a single point from the state. |
The upholding of the Glenn law
means many thousand of dollzzs 1n the
treasuries of the counties of the state.
Until that law was passed the railroads
escaped county taxation, and on account
of the special [privileges granted jin the
charters of the Central and Georgia rail
roads it appeared for a long time impos
sible to pass a law that would be sus
tained by the courts.|
Hon. W. C. Glenn, the author of the
law, besides jfighting the bill through
the legislature upon a line of argument
that succeeded where other similar bills
had failed, also made the principal argu
ment before -the state supreme court
when that tribunal declared the law
constitutional, after culling the fourth
section, which exempted the Central
and other roads from its operations on
account of special charter grants. Hon.
Clifford Anderson ywas the other repre
sentative of the state in the supreme
court, when the fight- virtually ended,
the present action before the United
States supreme court being perfunctory
in its nature.
Comptroller General Wright will be
ogin to force the collection of taxes un
der the law as soon as practicable. Few
of the rdilroads have ever paid this tax,
which amounts to a large sum in the
aggregate. They fought the fi. fas. until
the court of last resort had been appeal
ed to to defeat the law. Bu 3 they will
now have to come acloss.
The childish prattle is hushes; the
happy haunts of baby’s toddling feet are
deserted, the funeral bells toll their fare
vell {dirge, home 1s desolate. Had the
young mother not been indifferent 1o the
warning of that hittle cough, when she
rocked the baby to sleep, but had given
it one or two drops of Dr. Bull’'s Cough
Syrup, the relentless croup would not
have appeared, and then bitter tears
would not now be shed.
