The State Normal School ls twelve yea: - old and in that time has render- «-d <;.‘.rg!a conspicuous service in fur nishing hundreds of well-trained toach- ers to do solid and progressive work In the common schools of the State. The state common school system is nil the stronger and th hud the aid of this this building was later on equipped at the expense of that gentleman.

Nearly seven thousand teachers have hail tlie advantage of attending this In stitution during the past twelve years and in that period of time there have been four hundred diplomas Issued. The relatively small number of dipio- and even now they are inadequate to the demands. Every year there are scores and scores of teachers denied admission because there is no way in which they may be accommodated During all the years of the develop ment of this institution, it would hav been impossible to have done the work had It not been for large gifts from mas Issue,!

Nojv donors of scholarships and the like the greater number come for the full have been the means by which the slon and stay three and four ses sions until they reeeive diplomas. While the Slate of Georgia could easily find positions In the schools for hundreds of graduates each year, the State Normal with its present facilities Is turning out only from sixty to eighty graduates per annum. This number of trained teachers, however, make their training tell throughout the en tire State, and the educational forces of Georgia arc under deep obligations to them ln many ways. Fully one hundred thousand chil dren in this State have received the benefits of this Institution through the teachers that have been sent out. Pos sibly this Is a smaller estimate than should be made. Every county in Georgia lias felt the Influence of the State Normal. Every year from ninety to one hundred and twenty counties in t ie State are represented ln the student body nnd thus the benefits of the school are scattered far and wide over tho State. Its Graduates in Demand. Graduates of the State Normal School are In demand at nil times. President Branson is every day and every week besieged with requests for teachers from tho different school boards throughout the State. He finds no trouble In placing ail his grau- ates In positions as soon ns they re ceive their diplomas. The only trouble is that he demand for normal-trained teachers In this Stale far exceeds the «u poly. The school has raised its curriculum and made Its course of study so thor ough nnd so well adapted to the needs of the common schools that the boards of education all over Georgia recognize the worth of n Normal School diploma and ure anxious to secure the teachers who hold them. Wherever the State Normal School graduates have gone they have made an impress unon Ihe school and the community. They have succeeded in bringing order out of chaos in many Instances nnd in giving to the coun ties in which thev have located better schools nnd better training for the young. The aim of Ihe Slate Normal School is to bring its work up to a point where each year at least two hundred teach ers may be graduated, .so that the demand for the teaehers In the •com mon srools may ln a measure be satisfied Soma of It* Feature*. The essentials of n common school education are carefully taught at the Stale Normal. II has one of the best faculties in the South, and under the administration of President wrnnson the faculty has been strengthened from year to year nnd the course of study made more and more effective. It so arranged as to primarily nnd thor oughly look after the preparation of teachers for work in the common school has been pushed forward along the lines of Its great development The State has In recent years been liberal with the State Normal, but even with the liberality of the State, it has been necessary to rely largely on outside help. There has never been a year when the appropriations made by the State have been sufficient t.: cafry on this great work, but in some way the management has carried it on The Practice School. This Is one of the best features of the State Normal School. It is charge of Miss Celeste Parrish anil Miss Lollie M. Smith. In this branch of the school there are conducted reg ular classes, and the little children are given exactly the training they would receive in the very best school nnywherp. The students’ at the State Normal School are thus given the op portunity to see the actual teaching of children according to the latest and best methods. Thus the students gain an actual ex perience In teaching that stands them well in hand in the years to come when they have graduated and become actual teachers in the schools of the State. The moral and religious atmosphere at the State Normal ls the very best. The Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A;, the twilight prayer meetings, the Bible study groups, all have a marked influ ence on the lives of the teachers in attendance there. A good library has been secured after years of effort and the students nr» thus afforded splendid library fa cilities. This Is being added to year by year as the funds at the disposal of the school management are available. Some of the School’s Needs. The State Normal is anxious to reach a point where accommodations can be provided for at least five hun dred students per annum. To do this will require dormitory room for at least one hundred more than the dormitories of the school will now ac commodate. This will require enough money to erect the required dormitory buildings. A library building Is needed such as will accommodate ten thousand vol umes. An Infirmary with at least eight or ten rooms is needed. The area of the campus should be larger In or der to carry on the work of the school more effectively. Additional land will have to be bought for this purpose. The classes of the institution are now rather crowded. Additional floor space for class rooms is needed. And. us the attendance upon the school in creases. there will arise a need for more members of the faculty. Working for the Future. Every one connected with the State Normal School is a worker. Every one is full of enthusiasm ln this work. I President H. J. Rowe and his body of i able trustees are giving time and la- AUGUSTA, Ga..

Since the Legislature convened, orders for more than 35.000 jugs have been can celled and a wood working establishment having orders for bar fixtures worth $20,000. today received a telegram can celling It. $33,000,000 IN EXCESS LAS! YEAR’S RECEIPTS FISCAL YEAR OF GOVERNMENT CLOSES SHOWING A MOST PROSPEROUS CONDITION. WASHINGTON, June 30—So far as working purposes ure concerned, the fiscal year of the Government closed today with a surplus of substantially $87,000,000, one of the largest net bal ances ever shown. In the fiscal year 1902 there was a surplus of $91,-’87,375, but that was the largest since 1890. While the official figures for the fiscal year will not announced until Monday, tho figures available today are approx imately accurate.. They show that in the year just closed the income from the various sources of revenue was $665,306,133 and the expenditures $57 376.709. as compared with receipts of $539,571,286 for the last fiscal year, and expenditures of $568,322,798. the surplus in that year being $25,669,232. There has been a tremendous increase in rates in the year just closing, while tlie expenditures have been onlv about $10,000,000 In excess of the last year. The largest Increase in receipts has been from customs, although internal revenue has shown a big gain. The receipts from the different sources this fiscal year have been as follows: Cus toms $333,230,126: internal revenue, $270,309,388: miscellaneous. 61.766.619. There has been no year In the his tory of the country in which the re ceipts from customs came within many millions of the present year. The re ceipts last year held the record up to that time and this year's income from that source is about. $33,000,000 in excess of last year. Internal reve nue rr^telpts likewise broke all records, except during the Spanish war, when pecial taxes were being colletced. WASHINGTON READS JAP BOYCOTT BETWEEN LINES. raiding, spelling, writing and the like are looked after with the utmost care, there are several other departments at the State Normal that nre also given special attention, in view of the fact that they are coming rapidly into favor and use ln the State. Manual sciences and elementary agriculture me taught effectively in this school. They nre taught purely from w peda gogic standpoint, taught so ns to pre pare the teacher to teach the children. Agriculture In its ♦•l-sientnrv forms his been made a study In the com mon schools. Il Is therefore taught and taught effectively in the classes of Wliile English, arithmetic, history, bor and attention to the work of up- ' building this school. President Bran son and his able faculty are tireless in their work. The students themselves go to their homes to work for the school In every possible way. Those who know tho situation realize the mmon schools of the [great work this institution is doing, domestic arts and and no sacrifice of time or energy or money Is too great for them in the! work of forwarding its Interests. WASHINGTON. June 30.—Reading between the lines of the statement is sued by the Japanese chamber of com merce assembled at Tokio' directed to President Roosevelt and also the Amer en n chambers of commerce, toe offi* i in Washington see clearly the im plied threat of a boycott against Amer ican goods entering Japan. The boy cott declared by Chinese merchants gainst American products two years ago in resentment of the treatment ac corded Chinese of the better class en tering America, in the course of their ravels around the world, was pro ductive of better conditions, for the administration exerted all of its power to ameliorate the rigors of the exclu sion laws and to facilitate the entry of Chinese merchants and students. Therefore It ls assumed the Japanese merchants have decided to have re course to the same method of showing their resentment against the treatment accorded their people in San Francisco. NUMBER OF DEAD NINE, AND SEVENTEEN INJURED copies of the reports they made to the agency for transmission to the mine owners. Frisdman Was Copyist Friedman was a confidential stenog rapher under Detective McPartiand. and, so he testified, it was a part of his duty to recopy the reports of the operatives as they reached the office. Friedman swore that in several in stances the detectives sent by the agency in behalf of the mine owners get elected to high union offices, and in a couple of Instances they carried their daring parts to the extent of sharing all the hardships of real strikers and being finally deported from the country with real strikers. Ten feet from Fried man’s chair sat Geo. W. Redell, who a Pinkerton detective, worked up leadership in the Telluride union Turning to him, by direction of Ciar enee Darrow, the witness identified Redeli, who smiled and touched his chest as Friedman pointed toward him. Friedman said that one Pinkerton operative became chairman of th strike relief committee at Globeville and as such had charge of all the food and funds disbursed there by the local union and general federation. Tried to Beggar Federation, 'Friedman said that by instructions from his superiors at the Pinkerton agency, this man just tried to beggar the federation by lavish expenditure behalf of the strikers, and failing this he cut the relief down to the low est point of stinginess in the hope that the members of the union might cen sure Haywood. Friedman was twice interrupted to give way to other wit nesses and did not get beyond the iden tification and a brief sketch of each operative employed in the espionage of the federation’s strike operations and the identification of several of the cor. fidentiai reports. The latter were not read and will be offered in evidence Monday when Friedman will continue his testimony The examination did not show whether Friedman entered the em ployment of the Pinkertons as a spy in behalf of labor organizations whether his decision to make public his knowledge of the document he took was reached after he was employed. Miscellaneous Testimony. Aside from the introduction Friedman, the defense also offered large amount of testimony covering Orchard’s credibility, the dispute as to the time Orchard sold his Interest in the Hercules mine, the treatment Jack Simpkins while a prisoner in th Idaho bull pen, another motive for the murder of Detective Lyte Gregory, (he whipping of men friendly to the strik ers at Cripple Creek and the circum stances under which the processes of the civil courts at Telluride was de scribed by the military authorities Two witnesses swore that on the day the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mill was destroyed. Harry Orchard was at Mul Ian, eighteen miles from Wardner. They placed him in a poker game, and Patrick McPhale. a barkeeper, swore tteit he sat in the game. By various trreans, including a showing that Mc- Hale is a gambler, the prosecution en deavored to break this testimony, but both witnesses held to their stories. Conditions in Bull Pen. Frank Hughes, who said he was sent to the “Bull Pen’’ in North Idaho in 1899. for reasons that he never knew, described conditions in tha military prison and told how soldier required Jack Simpkins to stand for six hours in the hot sun of a July day. refusing him water and kept him up by menacing him with bayonets. Judge Theron Stevens, now of Goldfield, but once of the district of Telluride, traced the history of the relations be tween the courts and the soldiery in the troublous days of the strike. He testified that when the deporters tried to use the injunction to get back to their homes, the Governor returned the district to the control of martial law, and that the writ of habeas corpus and the subsequent order in the case of Chas. H. Moyer were both disregarded by Gen. Sherman Bell and Capt. Bulkeley Wells. soon WAS HOI MENTIONED BV JUDGE of Of EATONTON GIRL SURPRISED FRIENDS BY SECRET MARRIAGE EATONTON. G.a.

'State are noted for their conservatism, •In the decision rendered by Judge J. C. Pritchard at Asheville. N. C., Saturday In the case of the Southern Railway and the Atlantic Coast Line against the North Carolina Railroad Commission it is a coincidence that no mention is made about the Southern Railway. The case was to prevent the enforced rate enactments of the State legislature of that State. The decision in full is ns follows: "It is charged In the bill filed by the complainant that tho legislature of North Carolina at its recent session passed an act regulating freight and passenger rates and that by virtue of the provisions of said act, complain ant is about to be deprived of its prop erty without due process of law. The complainant seeks to enjoin the en forcement of certain freight and pa senger rates upon the ground, that the statute proscribing ihe same is re pugnant to the constitution of the United States. It is contended that the lapse of any considerable time would expose complainants to innum erable suits by shippers and the trav eling public, as well as subject them to the penalties enumerated in the statutes. Among other things the complainant prays for an injunction against the Railway Commissioners the Attorney General and the Assist ant Attbrnev General, during the pen dency of this case. On the 8th day of May, 1907 an order was entered restraining the de fendants from enforcing the provi sions o fthe aforesaid act. and that tho time notice was issued to the defend ants to appear before me oi. the 26th day of this montli and show cause why the injunction thus gained should not be continued until final hearing. The defendants assert : First: That this is a suit against the State of North Carolina, and that the court cannot take jurisdiction of the same consistently within the elev enth amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Second: It is also amended that complainant has not shown facts suf ficient to justify tho court In continu ing the injunction until tha final hear ing. • Much has been properly said by counsel representing the State in re gard to the soverlgnty of the State, and its right to deal with this question through its legislature. That the leg islature of the State has the authority with certain limitations, to fix freight and passenger rates, is undoubtedly true and is universally recognized by the Federal Courts. The courts of the United States have at all times ac knowledged and respected the power of the State in the administration nnd enforcement of its laws, within the limitation of the constitution of the United States: but while this is true it Is equally as important that any right guaranteed to a citizen by the constitution of the United States, should be fairly and impartially en forced. whenever presented to the United States courts for consideration. The court does not undertake at this time to pass upon the constitutional ity of the act of the legislature, inas much as that question cannot be prop erly decided until after a thorough con sideration of all of the questions in volved in tho controversy, and until the master shall report his findings of facts in respect to same. After carefully considering the very able tnd exhaustive arguments of counsel representing complainants and defendants I am of the opinion that this is not a suit against the State, within the meaning of the eleventh amendment but that It is a suit against the defendants, who are charged by the laws of North Caro lina with the administration and en forcement of the act in question. The videnee offered by the complainant relating to the allegations contained In the bill, when considered with the evidence offered by the defendants, while not conclusive, nevertheless raises an issue as to the matters in controversy so serious in character That the court • feels constrained to Continue the restraining order in force until the final hearing. Tho instructions of this court will Necessarily delay the determination of the right of the public as well as those of the complainant, neverthe less. under the order that is to be en tered in this case the rights of the public will be safeguarded so as to preserve to it the benefit sought to be conferred "by the passage of the act. in the event that such act should bo declared constitutional. While, on the other hand, if the court should dis solve the restraining order at this time, the complainant would be left without a remedy in the event that it should ultimately prevail. An order will he entered requiring the complainant to enter a bond con ditional for the payment into the registry of the court, a sufficient sum of money to reimburse persons who may purchase tickets of the com plainant to the extent of difference between the amount now charged and the proposed rate, and a sum equal to tfie -difference to tho aggregate freight rates now charged, and those to be fixed under the act of the legislature, in the event that it should be finally determined that the complainant is not entitled to the relief determined in the bill. Owing to the fact that the questions nvolved in this controversy are of Ital importance, not only o the com plainants. but to the public as well is highly important that there should be a speedy determination of the same and while it will entail additional la bor upon me. I think that this case should be set down for final hearing not later than the first Monday In October, thus affording an opportu- nitv to have the matter heard and a final determination of same by the Supreme Court, at the earliest possi ble moment. The court will file an opinion in this case at an early date, in which it will discuss every opinion involved in this controversy.” Following the decision of Judge Pritchard in thp North Carolina rase he rendered further opinion .as follows: “In view of the discussion between Judge Shepard and Capt. Thom, this morning, in regard to the enforcement the restraining order which I have st entered. I deem it my duty to say that in continuing the order until a aring. I have adopted ample and suf ficient means to protect the interests of the public to the fullest extent, by re quiring the complainant to file a bond gainst the payment of the registerv of the court a sum of money equal to the fference between the present rates and the proposed rates in the event that the act of the legislature should be declared constitutional.

Ga., June 29.—At a meet ing here this week or tho directors of tho Atlanta. Griffin and Macon Electric Railway Company, it was announced that tho work Of construction On the intorur- ban trolley line from Macon to Atlanta would begin sometime in tho near fu ture, probably by fall. Engineer lias com pleted his surveys, and has made the profiles. The securing of a few rights- of-way, and other incidentals are all that remain to be done, and it is believed that these will have been arranged dur ing the summer. At the meeting the directors entertained a nroposltlon from the citizens of Barnes- ville either to build a 15-mile branch to that town, or else t?o through it, and make up the loss of distance by moving tlie lino a few miles west of Forsyth. nnd In spite of its bleaching with age, the wood was as sound as a nut. • * * The sight of that old corn sheller sef Mr. Amason to thinking. Not only did ho remember that it was one of the things that had been banded down to his father by his mother’s people. hnT it reminded him of the story of hQW his forebears came to Georgia, as it passed from lips of father and from lips of son. It. was a. story of th- pioneer, his hardships, his privati #s, his struggles and his early life, when, in tho full flush of health and sturdy strength, he pressed foot on the roads that led through where Macon is today to the unsettled sections beyond the borders of Bibb. » • • There Is no need to he. exact ns to dates, but it was somewhere in the lS20’s that Mr. Amason’s maternal grandparents. Charles Kitchens and Lovenla Braswell, then living on the Tar River, In North Carolina, hearing of the fertile lands of Georgia, then i land of golden promise, bade farewell to relatives and friends and Joined a party of about two hundred to settle In the new country. The Kitchens and Braswells brought their cows with them, nnd the faithful animals not oniv drew the carts in which was the bed- The proposal, however, until tho next regular minthly meeting when it will be acted on. As it Is now. the line is some 15 miles from B.nrnesville. The loop made by the Central Railroad was cut off by the lnterurban so as to shorten the distance from Atlanta to Macon, making it SK mile* against the Central's 193 miles:, and the Southern’s 87 miles. As the di rectors do not propose to make the line longer, they would either have to build a branch line to Barnesville, or else leave out Forsyth and go west of it. There are twty companies interested was deferred j din? and outflt . but supplied them wit/ milk when the caravan stopped for rest at night. No wonder, then, they were three months coming. These good people walked every step of the way. There were many of the party who had no carts, but they were equal to the task. They had set out for the land of promise, and the determina tion to reach it sharpened their wits. Through a hogshead they ran a pole to serve as an axle. To the ends of the pole rude shafts were placed and the hogshead, filled with bedding, etc., was roiled over the roads, drawn by cows or oxen. The party halted on the east side of The river and rested. There were In dians in those days, but Fort Hawkins, with Its blockhouse and stockade, was protection until the -McIntosh treaty, nnd gradually tho red men left the country.
