The Recent Jail Competition.
Editor* Te It graph and MessengerIn
your issue of tbe 0th instant appears a
partial description of the jail submitted by
Mr. John D. Fred, agent of L. J. Pauly &
IJro., of St. Louis, Mo., and adopted by tbe
county commissioners.
This description by your reporter I care
fully perused, hoping to find something of
such a decided advantage over other plans
submitted, as to warrant tbe selection of
the mostexpenm-cof the plans, but I found
nothing, except a “guards room” and a
“juvenile cell," not found in the plan
which I had the honor to present, and
those apartments did not enter into my de
sign as a necessity.
We are told “the building is plain, un
pretentious and but very little ornamenta
tion." Other plans submitted were in
thorough architectural style and elegantly
ornamented, and the residence portion fit
ted with every comfort. The arrangement
of “squints" for the jailer, the kitchen
“feed door," the “misdemeanor" cell, the
“bath room," the “five cells" or “cages"
on the “first floor," and “five over them,"
“counterparts of those below," arranged
In a large room with a "corridor all
around," was equally as perfect in one
other plan at least.
The arrangement for locking and "un
locking one or all of the cells," the “prison
ers’ corridor" and its uses, are nothing
new, and are found in any
well digested jail plan. Indeed your
reporter’s description tttnjall the plans, and
no doubt a good jail would have been se
cured by adopting either plan submitted,
and hence the “puzzle" for the commis
sioners.
We are further told, the “building will
be enclosed by a brick wall with the ex
ception of the|front, which will have a
fence in keeping with the character of the
residence portion." This I suppose to
mean “plain, unpretentious and but very
little ornamentation."
My building was to have been enclosed
also, with an iron fence in front, with iron
gates, and so shown on the plans, and in-
cliidid In Xhe estimate of cost, which was
not the case with the others. My estimate
was $22,850, complete in every particular
and guaranteed, includina the wail of brick
and front fence of iron. The cost of the ac
cepted design is reported to be “about $25,-
000 without the fence or wall, which will
cost 11,000 more, say total $20,000; show
ing a difference of $3,150 in favor of my
design in its first cost. Nor is this all. blit
hy reason of its peculiar "intermediate"
department it will require one more at
tendant or “guard" tc supervise, thus in
curring additional and unnecessary ex
pense to the county in maintaining it.
In any fair competition, I will not com
plain if unsuccessful, but if there is appar
ent injustice to me personally then self-
respect appears in defense.
The commissioners, it appears, called in
an expert, or reteree, to aid them, but they
may say he was not called to decide on
any plan, or perhaps was not called at all
by any formal action of the board, yet by
tacit agreement at least, he does examine
the plans before the a n urd is made, and
does it privately, without my knowledge,
or the opportunity to meet with him to
furnish any explanation of plans, etc.
If he was not called as a referee, or if his
judgment was to*haveno weight in the
premises, then why should he spend a
moment in the examination, or express
any opinion; or if it was to determine for
Ithe commissioners,whether the statements!
or figures of the various architects were
practically correct, then why need he[
spend one moment on a design accom
panied by a guaranteed estimate. So far
as I am concerned, such a guarantee was
given in writing, and distinctly stated!
verbally to the board, that if no contractor
undertook the ere ction Of my design at a
less figure than the amount stated, then I
was ready to do sounder any bond re
quired.
It it was the wish of the commissioners
to refer the plans to others, then business
methods, as well as usage, would have sug
gested the selection of those acceptable to
the competitors, by whose decision they
would abide, or withdraw from the contest,
a course 1 certainly should have pursued
rather than submit to the judgment of one
who openly says “I am no friend to Wood-
niff."
1 hove not had the pleasure of seeing the
plans of the Pauly jail, but I doubt if their
Qgent will claim any superior merit in its
construction over mine, nor will he deny
the necessity of an extra attendant or
guard in its management.
Now, Messrs. Editors, a word for the
guaranteed estimate. I tin no stranger
in this community. For thirty years I
have been engaged in building In Macon,
and my work isonefery hand, and I never
yet underttHik a contract which I did not
complete, and without loss to the owner.

THE TEST CASE.
In Which the Express and Liquor Men are
Interested.
The case of the United States vs. John
Quill, charged with violating the revenue
laws, was heard before Commissioner Has
kins yesterday morning. Mr. Quill is
•gent of the express company at McVille.
and the point involved was the C. O. D.
delivery of whisky in packages containing
less than five gallons.
Mr. Guill was ably represented by Wash
ington Dessau, Esq. A stenographic re
port of the testimony was taken to be used
in the future.
In summing up the case, the cominis-
sioner said;
The evidence in this case is not of a
character which would justify the belief
that the defendant lias, either in act or
intent, violated the internal revenue law
in relation to retail liquor dealers, except
to the extent the performance of his duties
as the agent of a common carrier may, un
der a reasonable and just interpretation
of the statutes, admit of this construction
If indeed a criminal liability exists,
growing out of the plain C. O. D. transac
tions in snirits.proven in the case, to which
defendant is shown by the evidence to
have been a party, hy virtue of his busi
ness connection with the Southern Express
Company and liability, in my opinion, at
taches to the vendor rather than to the
agent of the common carrier, the defen
dant. whose acts in connection therewith
are shown *to have been in the utmost
good faith, and with no intent to defraud
the government of any tax due.
The vital question involved in the case,
therefore, is the liability of a common car
rier for conveying and delivering spirits
U|>on C. O. D. bills.
The construction given the law relating
to the s(>ecial tax as retail liquor dealers,
hy the Commissioner of Internal Revenue,
is that the place at which that delivery,
either actuator constructive is made which
transfers ownership from the vender to
the vended, is regarded as the place qf sale,
and at that place he (the vendor) should
pay the special tax I cannot cite, nor do
l know or any statute, or a construction of
any statute defining the peculiar conditions
which must exist to effect the “the transfer
of ownership" contemplated by this ruling.
I am therefore left to settle this question,
in my own mind, hy the State law. which
is that “delivery to carrier.is delivery to
the consumer." (58 Qa. 574).
If then under this law, that delivery
which transfers ownership from vendor to
vendee takes place upon the delivery of
goods, wares, and merchandise generally
to a common carrier, duly consigned and
marked to the consigneel 1 cannot see how-
similar transactions in distilled spirits can
he made an exception, notwithstanding
the spirits may be accompained by a C. O.
D. bill when sfdp)>ed by express.
The prisoner was thereupon discharged.
A TEST CASE
In Which the Little Brown Jug Plays
a Part.
It is well known that in the dry counties
of Georgia the most popular method of ob
taining supplies of whisky is by the jifg
line. This is specially so on Christmas
when thousands of jugs are expressed to
people who must have something stimula
ting.
The United States authorities have been
looking into the matter, and arrived at the
conclusion that tbe express agents at the

MACON KNITTING FAuTORY.
Tne Progress of n New Industry In
Macon.
Tbe manufacture of hosiery in Macon
has progressed so qnielly that few of our
citizens are aware of the tact that a steam
factory, employing a force of sixty hands,
is in active operation.
About the first of February Messrs.
Howes A Smith moved Into their new
building on the lot of the Bibb Manufactu
ring Company, on Second street. Tiiey
procured tiie best machinery fur the manu
facture of seamless hosiery and went qui
etly lo work to contend with the difficulty
of employing untrained labor. The result
of the labor it best shown In the fact that
the product of the mill lias been increased
from thirty dozen to over one bun
dred dozen a day. The advan
tages Macon offers for this species
of manufacturing are many. The facilities
for procuring yams ol superior quality
and color, wiiholtcoat of (relglitand with
out delay, are all important. On the
strength of these points alone, the Macon
Knitting Factory Is enabled to compete
successfully with Xorthern and Eastern
manu ai turers of Che same goods Macon
hosiery tins been sold in quantity as far
South as Tallahassee. Florida, ami as far
northwest as Minneapolis, Minnesota, and
has found it» way into almost every West
ern State. This would not lie possible if
the product was not the equal in price and
quality of that of the Eastern mills.
As to the home market, samples are
carried by the leading lobbing merchants
of the city, and through bis drummers are
being introduced to tiie trade of
Georgia. Probably for the first time
in the history’ of tiie State, the
Asylum for the Insane, a State
institution is furnished with goods of lids
class made within the State. \\ e men
tioned some time ago that the contract
had been awarded to Messrs. Howes A
Smith.
While the goods .tood on their own
merits, and not on the merit of being
Georgia made, it is noticeable as showing
the drift of business sentiment, that tills
latter fact secures them special iavor with
merchants. Georgia goods made from
Georgia yams spun from Georgia cotton
find favor with Georgia merchants.
These are tbe punts which a UM,
reporter gleaned from a talk with Messrs,
Howes A Smith, and as the progress of a
new Industry la an item of intercat we gi
them to our readers.
A Llttla Star Route.
Wears informed that the contract for
carrying the mail between Fort Falley and
Knoxville has been awarded to a man
named Clemons, of Xorth Carolina, and he
is offering to sublet it for U2> per annum.
As Crawford county subscribers to oar
paper are perhaps five L ines as numerous
as to any other paper, and a» fully tsro-
thirds of them get their mail by this route,
it is tbe most important mail line for
Knoxville.
Such contracts as this result In very in

other point where tha contracts are sublet
to any and everybody. The Mople <rf

as Imposition, and rightly so.
We respectfully refer the matter to the

thattba rrtiwill be remedied.
towns of the dry counties should take out
a license fur retailingspirituous liquors be
cause they receive the C. O. D. charges.
To make a test case, Deputy Marshal W.
H. I’jcary was sent down tiie Macon and
Brunswick railroad to work up a case and
present it. He nerited yesterday liter-
noon with Mr. John Gill, the express agent
at McVille. having arrested ldm on a war
rant charging him with retaining spiritu
ous liquors without a license. Mr. Gill
K ve a temporary bond for his appearance
fore Commissioner Haskins this morn
ing, when District Attorney Darnell will
bepresent.
In a conversation with Marshal Useary.
who spent considerable time in working
up this case, he said that the jug
business was not as square as it looked to
be. and that there was considerable crook
edness in it.
As an illustration he says that John
Smith, living In one of those towns, sends
to a wholesale liquor dealer in Macon for
five gallons of whisky. Ha instructs the
dealer to put up tint amount in oue gallon
jugs and address them to certain names,
which nre fictitious, at that place, and lo
be sent C. O. D. When a man applies to
John Smith tor a gallon of whisky and Is
known to be all right, an order Is given
to the express agent tor a jug addressed to
so-and-so. Tbe man pays the exptess
charges and a certain amount more, and
takes the jug. This rertain amount is
tiien divided between John fliuith and the
express agent.
In the case of Mr. Gill wa do not knotr
that anv such charge as the above is
made. As we take it. his is a caw in
whiph this one point is involved: Shall he
be required to take out a retail license for
delivering jugs of whisky and collecting
the C.O. D. Dili?
It is claimed that this delivering ot a
gallon of whisky by an expreis agent and
collecting pay for it constitutes a sale of
whisky, and lienee a retailer's Micense
should lie taken out, even If the whisky Is
sent to the parties by wholesale dealers
who have paid this license in llibh or tiie
county in which their store is situated.
If we do not mistake, a similar case was
heard bv Commissioner W. \V. Brown,
who is among the best posted revenue men
In Georgia, ami ho decided that the Yale
was made in Macon, and the mere delivery
and collection in other Counties did not
constitute a sale of whisky.

“There are scarcely any idlers
around Lumpkin, and day laborers nre
scarce,” says the Independent. It is a
good report. The idleness of thousands
lias been one ot the main muses of the
want of prosperity in Georgia since the
war. This evil, reinforced by had
methods on the part of the farmers, is
amply sufficient to account for the pov
erty of the State.

The Whole State Interested.
Dans.a Journal.
Of all men in the State the people
should be most interested in returning
to the Legislature the Hon. X. E.
Harris, of Bibb. Mr. Harris is thor
oughly enlisted np n the ouestion of
establishing a school of technology in
(ieorgia, and we firmly beliove, with
Mr. Harris in the next Legislature,
that a bill will he paused authorising
the establishment of such a school.
There it no greater need in our State at
this time than a school of technology.
The writer heard Mr. Harris’s views
upon this subject delivered before the
State Agricultural Society lost Februa
ry in Savannah, and he felt regret at
the time that every farmer in Georgia
could not have heard his speech.

SPRING
Is the season In which bad or poisoned blood
Is almost apt to show It itself. Nature, at this
junetnre.needs something to assist It in throw
ing off the impurities which have collected by
tbe sluggish circulation of the blood during
the cold winter months. Kwlft's Specific la
nature's great helper, as It la a purely vegeta
ble alterative and tonic.
Rev. L. B. Paine, Macon, Ga.. writes:
have been using Hwlft’s Kpcetflr at the Or
phans' Home as a remedy for blood com-
K laluta and as a general health tonic, and have
r*I remarkable results from Us use on the

is an excellent ionic, ana keei»s the blood so
pure, that the system is less liable to disease.
It has cured some of our children of Scrof
