WELLMAN TELLS WHERE THE REPUBLICANS 60T BOOS CHICAGO. Oct. 28—-Walter Wellman in the Record-Herald aaya: During tho past week the repub lican national campaign fund has been enriched by contributions of several hundred thousand dollars, and James J. Hill U the man who raised tha money. Mr. Hill has thua taken the pine* In the Taft campaign which “My dear Mr. Harr!man” held In the Roose velt campaign four years ago. For the flrat time since tbe opening of this year’s battle the republican national committee feels comfortable financial ly, and able to push the work with vigor during th* last fortnight of the campaign. President Roosevelt's In- fluent was enough to get a hundred thousand dollars from Andrew Carne gie, and some one stirred up Mr. Hill It was Jainss J. HIU who came tc the resdue of Mark Henna during the dark days of the flrst *Bryan-McKlnley fight, when It looked as If the west was going' for sliver and the notion In danger of being plunged down to the monetary basis of Mexico and Gua temala. Mr. Hill used his personal Influence among the rich men of New York and procured for Mr. Hanna a considerable part of tho 26,000.000 fund thst was used in that campaign. Now he haa coma to tho rescuo of Mr. Hitchcock in a similar way. Ho has spoken the words In the right eara In New York. #hlch have resulted In a surprising Increase of the funds Jn the war chest. That this accretion "was welcome may be imagined from tha fact that the chest was nearly empty, that various states were appealing to the national chairman for financial aid. and that poor Mr. Hitchcock did not know where the monay waa coming from to pay his ordinary running ex penses. let alone sending snug sums to the fighting states.

Ask ilf of 1 per IHAGHN MOTORISTS TO SEE SAVANNAH RACES MANY TO JOURNEY TO THE FOR EST CITY ON THANKS GIVING DAY. Maoon motorists and many others here are Intensely interested In the Grand Prize automobile races to be held In Savannah on Thanksgiving day, November 26, and tho day pre ceding. These races are to be held under the auspices of the Automobile Club of America, an organisation composed of the leading automoblllsts of the United States, -with headquarters In Now York city. On November 25 the International light car race will be run as a kind of preliminary to the Grand Prize race on the day following. There are six teen entries from three nations. They follow: America—Three Maxwells, 3 Bulcks. 1 Chalmers-Detrolt, 1 Cameron, 2 Gy roscopes, 1 American Aristocrat Italy-One Isotta. 1 Lancia. France—Three DeDIons. There aro twenty entries for the Grand Prize trophy, Italy, Germany, France and ' America competing. Among the drivers are the world's greatest racers. Louis Strang will take a French Renault car over the new Savannah course with a determi nation to win. Many Macon motor- lets have Been Strang on the track and have marvelled at hla superb nerve and expert skill in handling his machine. His head work is said to be the secret of his successes tbus far. He works his brain rnrhlle *he shoots the machine at reckless, wln- ig speed. Nazzaro, who will drive Italian Flat, la another dare-4evll on the course, who looks only to the capture of the prize, forgetting dan gers In hla reckless abandon to make speed. Tho Grand Prize entries and the drivers are: Italy. Flat. Naazaro, driver: Flat, Wag- !*r.. driver: Flat, de Palma, driver: Itala, Fbumlfr, driver; Itala, Cagno, driver. Germany.

The two races, one to and one for racing cars, two International races mat win or held in America during tho year 1808. The Automobile Club of America and those w*ho are closely ldentlfled qrlth the movement, declare that the list of cars is excellent and from the en thusiasm manifest this early. It Is to he assumed that the greatest motor ing event America haa ever known will be witnessed. A leading local enthusiast In speak ing of the Grand Prise race declared .. ... in. nts In or- tad ess ttle In which they were entertained In Atlanta. Macon citizens are glad that Ha veta were ao well taken care of. To treat them well kindles the fires of gratitude. Macon loves the veteran. It will be tha biggest thlr *d off In the south In sports. He stated flat were usually scheduled t the north and east, nnd Ists and other* of this the chance of a lifetime real, flret class motor rac cost or Inconvenience. The railways have announced re duced rates on all lines to Savannah and prohablv the biggest crowd of people Savannah has ever hM within ■ft gates will be on hand. That city ilf making active preparation to ac commodate the'Immense crowds ex pected. and Ihe entertainment com mittees declare everyone, whether motorist or not, will be properly cared for and that hotel accommodations will not be exorbitant In price. •Many Macon it es who do not own automobiles and probably wont until they are cheeper—which consumma tion may never be realized—are equal ly a* much Interested In the event as those who own cars and are ac tively Identified with motoring. With a great dm! of Interest, all Georgia appear* to be Savannah-bound on Thanksgiving day. And It 1# not a bad place to spend that or-anr other dav. resmrdless of tbe nation's best motor raoe.

TTQ' ti Thing. The*-Incoming ' trains on both the Central and Southern road* last night brought In many of the veterans, re turning from attendance on the re union in Atlanta. Some of them were bedecked with badges and buttons, some were tired and sleepy, and some came off the trains as chipper aa young men, and all seemed happy. 'All report the re union a most enjoyable occ&sign, and that Atlanta certainly did do the handsome by fhem. In addition to having a place where those inclined could go and got some thing to eat, coupon tickets were Is sued and with these the old veterans were privileged to eat where they wanted and as much as they wanted. This was a privilege they baa^tilY enjoyed. Lieut. - Mosely, In speaking of this feature, said last night that It was one of the best arranged things he ever aaw at a reunion. He was particularly well pleased with Atlan ta's way of doing, and says he la free to confess that ln‘ viaw of other re unions in Atlanta he did not expert anything, but this time that he was very, agreeably. dI*appo|h£d. The parade yesterday* was another pleaalng feature that the veta enjoyed. It was well formed - and tho program well carried out. - * As for the attendance. It wa* re markably good, tyhen one remembers that death Is busy with the thin gray line, busier now than ever because.ap many havo, reached the three-scoro years and ten. There ware many in line who will not be In It’ next year, and from this on the ranks will grow lesa In numbers more than before. The weather was Just the right thing. No one suffered, no one had cause to complain. There are many to rejoice that Ath- is will get the reunion next year. The fame of the hospitality of this little city has grown to the extant that the mention of the fact that Ath ens gets the reunion next year almost causea a rebel yell to rise. In addition to the members of Camp Smith and Macon who returned last nlg'ht, there was quite a number of those who passed through on way • to-their South •Georgia- homeff, fordo of I them stopping over to wait for train*. ___ i These lent their voices , to the Bibb 1 county veta in praise of the manner tn wVilnV tVrnv wr-ri* nntei*i*tn»a tn i was realized for the Would Mortq»n* the Farm.
