pieofG ergU <• Respond la The
lateiesl c£ a Stale Exhibit at The
W*rl4’» Emir In Ghi'afe-Urad
Who ih« Smjm ant Then Hwptatf.
To the People op Georgia ; Upon
the Invitation of the citfzmsof Macon,
the Georgia Weekly Press Association
held an extra session December 4:h to
consider the possibility of a creditable
display of Georgia’s resources at the
Columbian Exposition, to be held at
ObiC4go in 1893. This Convention
was largely attended by representative
members of the press, who fully dis
cussed and thorughly endorsed the
suggestions submitted to them*
After full deliberation, with a view
to Inaugurate definite p!am tu secure
the exhibit, the Convention appointed
i Sta'e £x»*cuiive Committee, to con-
Yst of one membe” from each Cocgrcf-
ilonal district, whose business it is to
arrange the details aQd begin, at once,
such «f)*»rt8 as will best secure the
purposes of the Convention and ad
vance the interests of the State.
The Executive Committee, as con
stituted by the Press Convention, met
in the city of Macon, December lGth,
and (fleeted permanent crganTz-itlon
by electing the Governor of the State
Chairman of the Committee, and W.
W. Collins, of Macon, Secretary, and
Treasurer.
Under Instructions given by the
Convention, the Committee arranged
to increase its membership by adding
one member selected from each of thp
towns and citiep in the State that con
tain more than three thousand Inhab
itants.
For the purpose of a more complete
organ:/, it ion throughout the State, the
Ordinaries of the several counties in
this State were requested to turn ish to
the Secretary the name of some public-
spirited cit z»u in each county who
would agree to act as the Chairman of
a County Board of Directors, whose
duty it will be to select two other suita
ble cltfzsns of the county to constitute,
with him, a County Board for the pur-
ose of securing funds and exhibits for
Georgia’s display.
The Committee further rt quested
the editor ol each newspaper in the
State to act as special representative
of the World’s Fair movement in
Georgia, to open a column for volun
tary subscriptions, and to urge upon
the people from lime to time the neees-
ity for prompt action in tha matter.
These appointments will constitute
the active forces for securing funds
and exhibits for Georgia’s display. If
we have the co-operation of the peo
ple of the State, Georgia will be suc
cessfully advertised to the world. If
the people are indifferent, the whole
scheme will fail, and our State will
’ose the leadership of the South in
progress and enterprise.
Uuder the direction of the Executive
Committee, I was instructed, as its
Chairman, to ask the earnest, active
aid of all the people of the State in this
worthy effort. We caunoc afford to
be absent from the gathering of States.
In all the history of our people there
was never a better opportunity to ad
vertise the State in its products, its re
sources and its advantages, so as to
secure the upbuilding of our various
industries, the development of our
agricultural, manufactures and com
merce. and thereby secure the increase
of our taxable property and the con
sequent distribution of the burdens of
government among the greater num
ber of State interests.
Not only will the display secure the
proper illustration and advertisement
of the State, but the advertisement of
the several localities, counties and
sections of the State as such. Any
locality, county or section, or indeed,
my special industry can make its
-tpeclal display as a part of the aggre
gate whole lor the State and reap the
bem fit of the advertisement of its
ipeci.il wares, products and ad van-
ages.
The scope of this exhibit will not be
confined, therefore, to material dis-
»lay, but extended to desetiptive cir
culars, pamphlets and such presenta-
ion as may give to the people outside
of the State a full and satisfactory
knowledge of our people, products
md possibilities. The committee In
tends the display to represent Georgia
m miniature, embracing every feature
-hat makes the wealth of the States
md the content of the people.
A creditable display cannot be se
cured, transported to Chicago, in
stalled in its place and properly cared
tor during the Exposition withuut a
liberal expenditure of funds.
The Secretary of tie Executive
Committee has been instructed to fur
nish to.tbe Treasurer of each County
Board the amount necessary, in the
opinion of the committee, for each
county to contribute to the display,
in Older to raise one hundred thous-
aud dollars as a general fund.
With proper diligence and under
proper methods, this amount of money
can easily be secured from the people
of the State.
It must not be understood that the
active agents In this, work aro neces-:
sarily confined to those named by the
committee. The County Boards, by
selection, may call to their aid any
other citizens who will consent to
render service in obtaining subscrip
tions or securlug exhibits.
Tho amounts collected can be for
warded, from time to time, to the
Treasurer, W. Yf. Collins, at Macon,
to be securely held under sufficient
bond and on deposit until properly ap
propriated under tbe direction of the
Advisory Board.
To illustrate the enterprise of our
people and the progress of our State,
every patriotic citizen should bring to
the help of tbe committee a worthy
contribution of bis means and bis ser
vices, under the hearty endorsement
of his good will.
Just as soon as the County Boards
are well organized information will be
given them as to the means for secur
ing conti ibntlons in money and col
lecting exhibits. We hope to have the
full co-operation of all classes of onr
people.

World’s Fair.”

never more so or more unjustly than
last evening.
As may i>3 seen by a reference to
the Council proceedings published
In another column, tbe chairman
of tbe printing committee in his re
port to tbe City Council recommended
that aeity printer be elected. .
Thjs grew out of the fact that there
are at present two newspapers pub
lished in the City of Albany. At lsa&t
we suppose that is tbe reason.
This report was read when the an
nual reporte were read and was adopt
ed. When it became necessary to
elect this official a certain alderman
made the motion that the regular le
gal rate for State advertising be adopt
ed and that Messrs. McIntosh & Green
be elected city printer.
As a matter of fact U may be 6tatcd
here that this contemplated change
(the News axd AovEsriSEs having
done the city printing heretofore)"w
not mentioned at all to the News and
Advertiser. Just prior to the meet
ing yesterday afternoon the pro
prietor of this paper was given an
intimation of this matter, and calling
upon the chairman of- the printing
committee and the Mayor could
ascertain nothing more from the
former than such a recom
mendation would be and from the
latter that he could take no part what
ever in it unless there was a tie be
tween this and the Herald office for the
work. While in the Council Cham
ber the proprietor of tbe News and
A dxertiser called a certain alderman
to one side, who promised to contend
for the city printing to he submitted
for bids,and that the lowest bidder not
only ought to have it, but should
have it.
Thyp are facts with an F as big as
a fodder loft that would not b8 obtrud
ed upon tbe public other wise.
When tbe election came Messrs. Mc
Intosh & Green were elected and it
w*s provided that the regular state
legal rate should bo paid. The vote
cast and the ignorace- this
paper knew of it show conclusive
ly that the arrangement was pre
concerted and prt "arranged. Had it
been fair, square, open and above
board the News and Advertiser
would not have a woid to say, but, as
It is, we are compelled to come now
to show to the public the manifest in
justice of such a proceeding. If the
two papers were to be given a fair and
square showing at tbi3 work it was
clearly open to be bid of each one.
This was not allowed and this was
not done.
Let us engage in the discussion of a
few facts just here that will ihow that
no investigation of the subject was
made.
In the first .place in every city in
Georgia where there are competitors
for city piloting the City Council al
ways submits the years* work to bids.
Tnis was net done here.
In the next place this printing was
awarded to a paper that began publica
tion on October 24th 1S91 while the
News and Advertiser has been a
daily publication for twelve years.
One is just' beginniug, tbe other is
well-established.
Iu the next place the award of city
printing was made according to the
legal rate. Do the city father under
stand what that means ? Did they cal
culate what it will amount to? Never
since the present proprietor of the
News and Advertiser has had
charge of this paper has such a rate
been charged. According to the an
nual reports rendered at the meeting
of the Council last night the entire
expenditure for printing for the past
year was $517-15. Of that amount
over $200 was included in the payment
for the new city code, leaving some
thing ove* $300 to pay for tbe publica
tion of all ordinances (each one pub
lished for thirty days) including the
annual license ordinance ai d all job
work outside of the city code.
Now let us consider a few facts and
figures. The annual license ordihance
published last year contained over
},50Q words. In rouud numbers that
would be, at tbe State legal rate; $11 45
a day, or $343 50 lor thirty days, fuily
as much as wa3 paid tho News and
Adxxrtiser for tbe past year, besides
tho publication of the city code.
The city officials forget or doubtles*
do not understand that all publications
at this rate include not only every
figure as a word and not less than one
hundred words are charged for. For
instance If loQ words are published,
2QQ words are charged for and accord
ing to law can be charged for.
If the award of the pity printing ac*
cording to the rate governed by the
State law was to be observed it would
have been nothing but fair that the
general State law should have been
complied with, viz; That tbe print
ing should be given to the paper hav
ing the largest circulation.
The Nxws and Advertiser would
have been migc than glad to accept
this printing at 3^ cents per hundred
words and then would have made more
money than ever before cm this vfork.
If the Council wanted to make a fat
job for some one the matter was. kept
very quiet, hut If economy was sought
we can simply inform the City Coun
cil that we would have accepted the
work ranch cheaper than it was ac
corded, and would have been glad to
acoept it at less figures. Last year
we got $50 for publishing the annual
liscense ordinance, and we will take
tbe same again at 35 cents per hundred
words for thirty days, guaranteeing
that it will make infinitely more and
nearly as much as onr bill for the en^
tire years’printing amounted to.
Bat the city code provides for the
publication of nothing but tbe annual
license ordinance. Heretofore we have
lag a stranger here wedil the work as
directed. It has simply been a eastern
and not a law.
When the city father*, want to go
into tbe printing business they should
be guided by some fsets that would
give them eome insight into tbe
business.
THE CENTRAL ROAD !
OF
A Tension For Mrs. Baris.
The News and advertiser is in
receipt of a communication from some
parties la Memphis, Tenn., who have
interested themselves in the matter of
asking each Sta’e that w as in the Con
federacy to make an anneal appropria
tion for the widow of the late Hon.
Jefferson Davis, as a pension for her
during her natural life.
Reference is made to the feeble I
health with w hich Mrs . Davis is j
affile ted and whose income is not suf
ficient to proenre the needed comforts
and conveniences of life.
Tbe following is a copy of the bill
that_wi!l be presented to the r.cxt
GeneralAisemply of Tennessee, and
its passage urged before that body:
An Act to Pension Mrs. V. Jef
ferson Davis;—“Be it enacted by
the Geueral Assembly of the S*ate of
Tennessee, that th«t sum of ($1,000)
one thousand dollars be, and tbe same
is, Uerohy annually appropriated out
of the Treasury of tbe State, as a pen
sion for the use and benefit of Mrs. V.
Jefferson Davis (widow of the late
Hon. Jefferson Davis) during the term
ot her natural life; ar.d the comptroller
is hereby directed to Issue his warrant
•on the Treasurer In favor of Mrs
Davis for the sum ot one thousand dol
lars on the l't day of tbe month of
April in each and every year until her
death.”
The General A=semVy of Georgia
does not convene until nex* November.
If any one see 5 * fit to bring the matter
beJore that b *dy is will be left with
them as to what will be done in tb*
matter. If a disposition i3 manifested
by other States to resfrmd-to this call
Georgia w ill m^at certainly do her part.
We have been under the Impression
heretofore that ilr=. Davis was in com
fortable circumstance?. Mr. D*vis,
during his lifetime, never lacked any
of the comforts of life, and if his
widow is now in want aud need it is
because his estate must htve been
heavily Involved.
If it is ascertained that Mrs. Davis
is actually in want no people will re
spond more cheerfully to her assist
ance than Georgiar-s.

which has led ir e to se ver my cffidal
relations with the Terminal company.
The connsel of the company, occu
pying necessarily a position of confi

who control It. 1 am not in accord
with a m»-j »rity of the present board
of the lYi minal company. These gen

THE ATTEMPTED RAID GX THE CENTRAL.
Having thus secured control, they
demanded without warrant in law or
in morals, that before they would oer-
mit the Richmond and Danville R til-
road Company to pay the obligations
of the Central Railroad Company,
maturing January 1st, and amounting
to over six hundred thousand doilars.
the Central railroad should - deliver
into the ncrual possession of the Dan
ville, securities worth more than a
million dollars of money. Ibis the
directors of the Central road properly
declined to thr.
The executive committee of the Dan
ville on Wednesday last passed a reso
lution positively-declining to pay the
maturing obligations of the Central
unless the securities were turned over
t« that company. Durirg Wednesday
afternoon, and early Thurs fay morn
ing, my brother Copt. John C. Cal
houn, ami I, arranged for ail the
inoucy rtq’ilred to pay the maturing
obligations of the Central.
On Thursday Mr. Inman, president
of the Terminal anti D-inviile Compa
nies, left his sick'room and went down
town to prevent the disgraceful default
Jutermlved upon by the Dan vIHe Com
pany. As the''txTbney was ready to
protect the Central's credit, the parties
i* control receded from tindr demands.
But today ft was openly announced
in the. Terminal beard that a change in
the directors of the Central railroad

board lied declined to deliver over its

could rely to carry out i-s demands.
With a dispute between ibe Danville
and the Central roads in regard to an
alleged claim made by the Danville for
some $800,000. it was proposed to put
ou the Central officials of the Danville
company, who, it was presumed, could
be controlled through their employ
ment by that oompany.
I-have reason to bdieve that my op
position prevented the cirrylng out of
the outrageous programme. I believe
the attack upon tbe credit af the
Terminal company, and especially
upon the creditof ih* Central R-Hroid
Company, during the last few months,
the hostile legislation attempted last
summer in Georgia, and the recent
effort to wreck the Central railroad,
by defaulting upon its securities, were
inspired by the same motives and
emanated from the clement now In
control of the Terminal company.
However, I strongly urged ray
friends, aud earnestly appeal to the
conservative citiz ms ot the State, not
to allow the radical and unwarranted
action of those -now in con
trol of tire Terminal company to pre~
judicc them against the railroad inter
est of the State. The integrity ot
the Terminal system 'should be pre
served. A careful study of m.auy
years convinces me that nothing could
be so unfortunate for the southern,
and especiall for the- south Atlantic
sea ports, as the crystallization against
them of the great transportation lines
of the country. . Pat Caliiovx.

Skates are very old ^hundreds, nay,
perhaps thousands of years before this
crisp winter, skating was a merry
sport. Perhaps too many in this age
of invention think that more ideas are
new than really are so. If we remem
ber that everything we see around ns
grew up, then we can begin the in
quiry about skates that came before
the keen-edged “club,” with all the
ardor of historians. It is that skates
would be of no use in the tropics; we
must look fonheir home iu the land
ot long winter*, of crusty snow aud
slow, ice-bound rivers.
We would not envy the boy of long
ago, as be bound the shic-boces of
some animal to his feet and went
through a kind of sprawling gymnas
tics that was the skating of the period.
In Iceland skates are called isleggir,
“ice bones,” the shin-bones of a sheep.
If the shin-bones were the first
skates then tbe boy who lived before
Iron or bronzi were known, back in
the stone and bone age, could enjoy
himself with this cheery sport. Tne
boys ol London, in the twelfth century
Fi«z Stephen tells us, In winter bind
under their feet a pair of shin-bones,
take in tbeir bands poles shod with
iron, which at times they strike against
the ice, and are thus carried along
with the rapidity of a bird on the wiog
or a bolt discharged from a crossbow.
Tbe generous Holland boy, Hans
Brinker, was forced to go back to the
primitive way, when he had given bis
skates to a poor friend, and had fore
gone bis chances in the race fbr the
“.silver skates.”
It is thought that skates came into
use in Northern Europe, perhaps In
Holland, where tit Is cold and there Is
plenty of smooth water, because, where
the rivers are.swtift there Is no skating.
The wooden skates with iron runners
curling up Into a wonderful spiral ter
minated with a brass acorn, at'the
point, were introduced Into Eugland
from the Low Countries. GoSsipy dis
plays, in his diary of December 1,
ICfll, received. “To my Lord Sand
wich’s, to Mr. Moore and then over to
the Parke, where I first in my life, It
being a great frost, did see people slid
ing with tbeir skates, which Is a very
pretty art.”
Tho Scotch have the reputation of
being good skaters, both in the “fen”
or straight, swift skating, and the fan
cy skating. Our country has tbe cham
pion, I think, at present. ^
The snowshoe may be called the
overland skate. While the snow lay
in great drifts, defying progress, keep
ing the civilize New Englander in
the house and setting Whittier to
writing the beauties ot “Snow Bound”
the Indian, fixing a frame-work cov
ered with netting to bis feet, could
rally forth to kill the floundering
moose or deer. Snow shoes must have
originated like skates, from sheer ne
cessity. The savage cannot lay up a
supply of food for a long time; he
must be able to hunt ail seasons.
The same principle that men are
trylng.to imply, now in tho invention
of the flying machine, namely to get a
widesurface for the support of the air
ha3 been successfully applied to the
snow shoe. Whoever this forgotten
wi*e inventor was^.lie must have no
ticed that sometimes the snow would
almost bear him up ou the area of his
shoe soles, and he reflected that If he
had larger feet it would be a positive
advantage.
He plaits up some twig3 into a cir
cular shape and finds that tke surmise
is correct, but the snow collects on
these primitive shoe3 and Tetania his
walking. The result of all the trials
is the graceful, tapering Canadian
snow-shee, with beveled frame of
light wood and netting of raw hide,
leaving no place for snow to stick.
The mishaps of the learner on snow- -
shoes *re very ludicrous, especially
when he “scuffs” and takes a header
into the drift with snow-shoes upper
most. The National Museum has
many different forms of snow-shoes,
from the o\al x very wide shoes of .La
brador to the tapering shoes of the In
diana and Eskimo. The rudest snow-
shoes perhaps in the world are used by
the California Indians. They are mere
hoops of wood with coarse netting.
The Ala shoe come3 iu a olose second
in point of rudeness. Just Low the
Labrador people walk with a snow
shoe twenty-five inches wide on each
foot i3 a query. The effort to bring
one foot around past the other must re
sult in a peculiar amble. The Japen-
esc have a sort of snow shoe with
spurs, that admit of walking up the
mountains in hard snow.
The skees of Norway are long and
narrow like sledge runners, and on
them travelers glide down hill with
greatspeed.
The contrary of 6kates and snow
shoes are the ice creepers. 1 No one
likes to skate or glide when unprepar
ed, for contact with mother earth is
peculiarly violent when ice induces
the descent. Walter Hough,

Best Baking Powder
The Official Government Reports:
The United States Government, after elaborate tests,
reports the Royal Baking Powder to be. of greater leav
ening strength than any other. (Bulletin 13, Ag.
Dep.,$. 599.J J
The Canadian Official Tests, recently made, show
the Royal Baking Powder highest of all in leavening
strength. (Bulletin 10, p. 16, Inland Rev. Dep.)
In practical use, therefore, the Royal Baking Powder
goes further, makes purer and more perfect food than
any other.
Government Chemists Certify:
“The Royal Baking Powder is composed of pure and whole
some ingredients. It does not contain either alum or phosphates, or
other injurious substances. Edward G. Love, Ph. D.”
“ The Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the purest and most
