TROUBLE OTERDIS
FRANCHISEMENT
Because of Law's Failure to Fix Time
For Becoming Operative.
EKOM THE MORNING NEWS.
Atlanta. July 13.—There was
something of a sensation created in
the weeting of the General Judiciary
Committee of lhe House this after
naon during discussion of the bill by
Mr. Slade of Mucogee to fix the time
at which the disfrgnchisement law
shall go into effect as Jan, 1, 1909,
when it became apparent that the
failure to fix a time in the law itself
is a serious defect. It.is impossible
now to amend the distranchisement
bill, except by passing a second con
stitutional amendment. It cannot
be done by a simple law and the bill
itself, having passed from the hands
of the Generul Assembly, cannot be
amended,.
The duty devolves upon the Gov
ernor of declaring it effective as soon
as the ratification by the people is
officially reported to him. Conse
quently such aection would have to
register, under the terms of the new
law. It is evident that within the
week or two that within the week or
two that would be allowed for this
purpose a very limited registration
could take place for that election, at
least, thousands of voters wourd ve
unintentionally distranchised.
The seriousness of the situation
go impressed the members of the
General Jud:iciary Committee this
afternoon that it named a commit
tee of three, Messrs, Alexander, of
DeKalk, Covington of Colquitt and
Perry, of Hall, to investigate the
matter and show a way out of the
ditficulty,
The only way suggested so far- is
to pass a resolution an to have the
Gov. incorporate the terms of reso
lution in his =xe~utive order, making
the law effective Jan. I next. Whe
ther this can be done is open to con- |
siderable doubt. T.e comumittee is
asked to repurt Wednesday. l

i Chicago, July 13 —-While 200 men.
sand boys set or stood within a com l
paratively few feet of her, and in
‘mght of nearly 1,000 others, an ua
identified woman fell or rolled pur
rosely from the north pier at the
mouth of the Chicago river yester
day afternoon and drowned. Altho
the woman screamed repeatedly for
assistance, not & hand in the crowd
that watched her struggles in the
water was lifted to save her. In
stead, one of the gazers stole her
purse and hat which she had placed
on the pier beside her, and fled. A
half hour later the bedy was taken
from the water by Captain Carianc
and his men from the life-saving
station.
- Statements of witnesses differ as
to whether the woman intentionally
hurled herself into the lake or fell
over on her side and then rolled in
to the water as if -stricken by the.
heat. b
Captain Carland® says the men
‘could have saved the woman, and
also said they acted like a pack of
dogs. :T g o

But what are you doing to contribute to the
general prosperity? Are you patronizing home
industries in preference to outside industries?
Do you buy your clothes and groceries and gar
den tools and so forth here at home?
Well, you admit, you do send away for a good many
things you happen to see advertised. Aha! And are they
advertised in this paper? No, indeed-—in the mail crder
journals and catalogues. Quite true. And you would just
as soon buy them here if they were advertised by the local
merchants, wouldn’t you? Why, yes.
Well, now, there’s a neat hint to some of our local store
keepers and dealers who perhaps haven’t discovered why
they are losing a lot of home trade which they ought to
keep. ; j
