Yonr chance is here, and the time is the present moment, - - 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 N.T A MAN MOV ED 10 SAVE LIFE MAN. ‘ Instead Some of The Lookers on i Stole Her Purse and Hat. | 1 NO SOUTHERNERS THERE. i | —_— | 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 Igéfdfi'a@a?

And you would just as soon buy them here if they were advertised by the local merchants, wouldn’t you? Why, yes.
