I 111,1 hiiIHII lipiMM NEWS OF A DAY IN GEORGIA’S CAPITAL LAW IS CONSTITUTIONAL UNDER "WHICH THE RAILROAD COMMISSION EXISTS. The Hnllrond* Fight I list the Redac tion of Rate* ne Proposed Under Circulars 301 and 303 Withdraw Their Allegation of Unconstitn tlonality—Act Establishing the Commission Wa* Re-enacted and no Question of Legality—Evidence in the Case To-day. Atlanta, Nov. 28.—The hearing of the injunction suits brought by the var ious railroads of the state to prevent the enforcement by the Railroad Com mission of the reduced rates in cir culars 301 and 302 was taken up in •the United States court before Judge Newman this morning. It was decided to treat as one rase the bill of the Central Trust Com pany of New York, the cross bill and the amended bill of the Central of Georgia Railway Company. All of these documents were read to the court, and Judge Hart for the com mission was in the midst of the state's answer when the court adjourned un til to-morrow. The feature of the day was the aban donment by the railroads, announced by Col. EM Baxter of Nashville, of the point made in the amended bill that the Railroad Commission is oper ating under a law which Is unconsti tutional. It has been contended that the act of 1879 creating the Railroad Commission was unconstitutional be cause Its body contained subject mat ter not indicated by the title. It was shown, however, that the entire act was re-enacted in the code of 1895; hence, the roads decided not to con test the legality of the commission’s existence. The state in the answer claims that no attempt has been made to penalize ■the railroads for refusing to lower In terstate rates, but {hat the commis sion’s only object was to promulgate rates that are just and reasonable, as shown by circumstances now exist ing. Evidence will be Introduced to-mor row. The Vote of Georgia. Announcement of the official vote of Georgia was made to-day by procla mation of Gov. Terrell, giving the vote received by each candidate for elector for President and Vice President. Fol lowing is the highest vote received by any elector on each of the tickets In the field: Democratic, 83,472; Re publican, 24,003; Populist. 22,635; Pro hibitionist, 684; Socialist, 197. The Republican electors at large led their ticket, the other electors receiv ing in some instances less votes than the Populist electors. The total vote for Parker and Davis was more than 10,000 less than the to tal Democratic vote for congressmen, which went above 94.000. The Dem ocratic electors will meet at the Capitol on Jan. 9, and cast their bal lots for Parker and Davis. Building Pleased Roosevelt, President Roosevelt was very much pleased with the Georgia building at the St. Louis Exposition. So says President David R. Francis of the ex position company in the following tele gram, which was received toy Gov. Terrell to-day: "St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 27, 1904.—H0n. J. M.

NOT FOR BEST FARM In the State. “I saw so much In the papers about the wonderful cures effected by Py ramid Pile Cure I determined to give it a trial. I bought from my drug gist one 50-cent box and used it as directed, and by the time I had used the last ’pyramid’ I was entirely cured; in four days after I began to use the ‘pyramids’ all inflammation was gone. I was perfectly easy all the time, the excessive discharge stopped at once, and stools became easy and gentle. "I was unable to get my own fire wood for four months, and half the time when I could walk at all I had to walk half bent. I used many pile remedies, salves and ointments, all to no effect until I used one 50-cent box of Pyramid Pile Cure and was cured. "I would not be afflicted as I was four months ago for the best farm in the state of Arkansas. I can give proof and reference of the wonderful cure to all who are afflicted as I was. Please publish my letter that I may advise the afflicted.” —W. E. Wallis, Piggot, Ark., Box 26. The experience of Mr. Wallis is that of thousands of others who suffer for years with the most painful forms of hemorrhoids, or piles, and after try ing everything they hear of, give up nil hope of a cure and look for tem porary relief only. To all such a little book published by Pyramid Drug Cos., Marshall, Mich., brings glad tidings, as it tell? all about the cause and cure of piles, and is sent free for the ask ing. SPECIAL NOTICES.
