NEWSPAPER THIEVE8.
Rome petty thief ha* been netting at.
the business files of The Telegraph
.(unbound) and probably veiling them as
old pspers for wrapping purposes.
During the last three or four nlghtn
hundreds of these papers of recent and
comparatively recent dates bars been
purloined from this office. We have al
most sufficient evidence to convict the
thief, but at present we are Interested
In securing a return of these papers,
because many of them cannot be re
placed, and are quite valuable to ua.
The object of this notice la to warn
parties not to purchase such papers,
except from this office direct; and If
there are any of them held now by In
nocent purchasers about town we would
like to pay tor the return of such sa
vr# need to this office.
BRYAN TO TAKE THE STUMP.
Mr. Bryan has offered his services to
the national committee, nnd will take
the stump wherever Indicated by that
Mr. Bryan can do a groat deal to In
sure the triumph of the Democratic
ticket If he Is wist. But If ha draws a
Joab's blade like some of his friends
have done, even here In Georgia, hla
work will be destructive and not help
ful.
Mr. Bryan has had time for cooling,
after hla experiences at ttt. Louis. and
we bope he will prove to be big enough
to measure up to the requirements and

MR. WATS0N 8 SPEECH.
Mr. Watson turned loose last night

THE
OF THE
A REMARKABLE PLEA.
The Kew York Iftt.dd of Tuesday
) r ■ t«VI an Interview with Chairman
Dabrock of the R. publican congrea-
Mimal committee In which he not only
».'tifesaed that he has on bla hands the
h irdrst flght to save the house since
but he made the following re-
GREAT SHERIFF
STATE.
The conclusion at the state capltol
seems to he that the governor has not
the authority to remora from office
the sheriff of Bulloch county, or any
other county ( for any misfeasance or
malfeasance of official duty.
The decision must be based on the
only words In the constitution of the
state applicable to the case, which are
found In article XL. section 11., para
graph 1.. as follows:
"Pargraph I. The county officers
shall bo elected by the qualified voters
of their respective counties or districts,
and shall hold their offices for two
years. They shall be removed on con
viction for malpractice In office. . .
Jn the construction of constitutions
and statutes affecting the rights of
the citizen, Judge Story says the
maxim, -expresslo unlus cat excluslo
atterlus,” Is to be applied In all its
rigor. In which circumstance the
statement of our state constitution
above quoted can but mean that a
county officer can only be removed,
even by the courts of the country,
after a verdict of conviction of mal
practice In office. All other causes and
methods of removal are excluded from
authority nnd practice In Georgia.
In this respect our state constitution
differs from those of most of the
states. At the time It was framed the
makers of it had in mind many recent
aggressions upon the home rule prin
ciple In these states of the South. The
constitution builders took exceeding
are to guard that right of the people
In the smallest of our political units—
even the militia districts. Hence It la
that not tven a Justice of the peace or
onstable can be removed from office
until he shall hare first been convicted
by due process of law of some mal
practice In office. Political, personal,
or any other cause will not suffice.
Two years ago Govsrnor Odell of New
York removed the sheriff of Kings
ounty (Brooklyn) for alleged barter
ing of the business of his office. The
sheriff, Guden. resisted and the case
went up to the court of appeals, of
which Alton B. Parker was then the
chief Judge. He delivered the opinion
of the full bench 'sustaining the author
ity and act of the governor. Hut In
he case of the state of New York the
(institution expresaly gives such power
of removal to the governor. Judge
Parker, after thorough Investigation.
Intimates that the New York provision
Is fairly general, saying:
"In this country the power of re
moval Is an executive power," and he
quotes Chancellor Kent to the effect
that "tho governor Is the greet sheriff
of the state, and the sheriffs should he
considered In the light of deputies,"
whom It might be expedient for tho
governor to remove promptly.
Judge Parker, commenting upon the
fact thnt subordinate executive offi
cials of counties should be subject to
the supervision of the chief executive,
says;
"The ability to act quickly in the re
moval of administrative officers and
clerks Is as Important In ths conduct
of government as In the management
of a gigantic corporation or large indi
vidual enterprise. Tho attempt to
fegusrd the rights of the official
ould not be carried to such an extent
to override the interests of the pub
lic, for the public business is of para
mount Importance."
In Georgia the power of removal of
ounty officers la conferred upon the
Judicial department Instead of being
vested in the executive branch of the
government. Events have shown us
that the power Is Improperly, because
Ineffectually, lodged. In cesea of gre.it
popular Interest, such as the Htntee-
boro situation, the Judicial machinery
will be chain-locked at the start by
the refuse) of the grand Inquest of the
county to present the derelict official
—If It shall appear that he has be«n
derelict because they will approve hla
malpractice In the given and extraor
dinary instance^ Hence, In such emer
gencies, the governor la powerless be
cause his deputy on the ground is der
elict.
What, then? A prompt amendment
of the state constitution placing the
power to remove county officii

To the Editor of The Telegraph—I
beg spare In your valuable columns
to express my heartiest approval of
"Fan's" card In your Issu® of yester
day morning in regard to the tax on
baseball, for that Is all It la—nothing
more nor less. The idea of exacting
1400 from the owners of the franchise
Is simply ridiculous. Why Atlanta
with a population of more than
100.000 doesn't put any such prohibi
tive tax on the game. What's tho
matter with little Macon anyhow? Do
the aldermen think the franchise a
gold mine? 1 dare say, if. at tho close
of the present season the balance
sheet evens up. the owners of i
team will be more than satisfied,
too, am one of the "can’t get-aways"
and enjoy to wltneas a good game of
ball and would bo more than sorry to
see Macon drop out of th# league. As
for Mr. Kohler, guess he can take rare
of hlmaelf. but 1 do wish to add that It
would be a good thing for Macon if
•he had a few more young business
men like him—public spirited, enter
prising. progressive, and la Savannah
baa any more like to spare, let her
send them up this way.
And while 1 am commenting on lest
Tuesday nights council proceedings. I
beg elto to add. If you ere going to
go for the dubs, go for them ell, big

Hah of one and fowl of the other, reed

BULLARDS, Ga., Sept. 1.—The an
nual Sunday school convention was
held at Friendship church near this
place yesterday, wlth v a large crowd in
attendance. Cloudless skies and gentle
breezes made the day all that could be
desired for the occasion.
A splendid Drogram had been ar
ranged by the county Sunday school
chairman. The first lecture was by Mr.
C. B. Ellis on "The Bible," and this
was followed by a splendid talk on
"Class Organization" by Mr. E. P. May-
lary. Both of these talks were Interest
ing and instructive.
At the dinner hour a splendid spread
was made under the shady oaks for the
large crowd, and It can be said of this
part of the day's pleasures that It did
credit to the fine culinary taste of the
good house-wives, of tho community.
An abundance of everything good was
provided.
In the afternoon the business session
was held, at which reports from the su
perintendents Jn the county were
heard, Mr. B. B. Tharpe and Mr. Ste
phen Asbell making effective talks.

dent; J. T. Robertson, secretary;
Afessrs. J. E. Stokes. J. H. Johnson.
Henry Everett. A. 8. Bryan and Ste
phen Asbell, executive committee.
The last talk was by Mr. Ellis, who
told In a very effective way how to get
the old people, as well as the ohlldren
Into the Sunday school.
The music under the direction of Mr.
~ U. McKenny of Macon'was all that a
refined and music-loving audience
could ask for. It was soul-stlrrlng, and
held tho crowd spell bound. Especial
attention may be called to a solo,
IVould you Believe," sung by Miss Le
na Fulghum; a quartet "Enter While
you May," sung by Messrs. R. L. Mc-
Kenney, E. P. Mallary and the Misses
Fulghum ;and a solo, "Will there be
Lny stars." sung by Prof. Peacock.
One of the most helpful things of the
entire day was "The Lesson," taught
by Miss Lula Fughum. of Macon, who
before a large crowd of children and
grown up people did the subject admi
rable Justice.
Withal, the day was a glorious one
for the Sunday school Interests of the
county. The day's work was closed
with the organization of a Sunday
school at Friendship, with Mr. Henry
