•JL'JfcLE ATLANTA U-l^UKLrlAN AND NEWS. kati kdat. December r. No Need To Ask the Question— —Of course, there is not a home in Atlanta or Georgia that hasn't one but what would like to have a piano. Even when there is no “musical member” of the family—which is a rare thing—how often is the need of one felt when company comes, or the little social gathering is held? —In its great $15,000 popular voting contest, The EXTRA VOTE OFFER EV«ry candidate who brine, or .end.: In a "club" of Are new ate month.' subscription* for The ClcOr- fftin and New. between the dates of Wednesday, December 4, at 8 o’clock, and Saturday evening, December 14. at 19 o’clock, will ba alven an additional ballot cood for 2,000 votes. This I. over and ubova the usual num ber of votes Issued. A new yearly subscription will count the same as two for sis months,'but orders for less, than six months will count In this offer. Two thousand extra votes will be Issued for ev$ry set sent in. tor In stance. If you were to send In five new six months subscribers or two for a year and one for six months, you would receive the regular number of votes and 2,000 extra votes. If a candidate should send In two sets she would be given 4,000 extra vote* and so on for every set that she turns, In she will receive 2,000 extra votes and she Is at liberty to get as many sets as possible. The orders must all be sent. In together: that Is, ht least enough to make one set must be sent In at the same time. In order to make this thoroughly plain, say that you were to send In five new six months subscriptions you would then receive the regular number of votes, which Is 5.000, and the 2,000 extra votes, or say that you sent In two new yearly subscriptions nnd one for six months, you would then receive 2,400 votes for each of the yently subscriptions and l.ooo votes for the six the 2,000 extra votes, which This offer Is for new sub scriptions only and will not count on any old subscriptions. Kxtra votes will not he Issued on any dubs .for lees than five six months subscriptions and they must he new subscriptions. Changing from one member of the fetidly to that of another will not count as a new subscription nnd If you slop your paper and start It again —V w — - —■ -ys me .tsuu.i oui/eii li'Lixfiin illiu ‘ months subscription, which makes a total of 5,809 votes; and then you would recelvo tl would make the total for the set 7,500 votes Instead of the 5,800 votes as formerly. during the contest it Will not b* counted ai a new HtibRcrlber, All subscriptions must, as usual, be paid for in advance before the ballot: Kfttat this oftsr Isffor ten days only and that It will positively close Saturday JJjdoejtOld subscriptions do not figure on this toiler, but the regular number of votes will be will be iHsued. And remem - night, December 11. at 10 Issued 'on old Georgian and News is offering eleven pianos—one grand and ten Kingsbury pianos. Everybody knows what a Kingsbury is—it represents the top-notch of achievement in piano-making. It’s the joy of the true musician in tone and mechanism. It is standard in all that the term implies, and its makers guarantee it. —The offer of ten such instruments free in one prize contest has not been surpassed in liberality of opportunity. Like to have one?—of course you would—then why not? Really, the thing is simpler than you may imagine. A little activity in securing sub scriptions to The Georgian—a little diligence in clipping the cou pons that appear in the paper daily will land one of these coveted prizes. You've no idea how rapidly the votes run up under The Georgian's liberal plan. —If you knew that ten new one-year subscriptions to The Georgian and News, under the special extra vote offer, now in force, would put you in the lead of the entire contest, you wouldn’t be long in getting them, would you? Certainly not, and yet that is exactly what ten new one-year subscriptions will do for you. v With them you would secure 32,000 votes, and that is more than any candidate in the contest has up to date. Surely this is an opportunity not to be overlooked. m COMMISSION IN FAVOROF STATE?

President Htate College of Agriculture, Athens. Ga.: Dour Sir— Referring to your plan for an “Educa tional Special," to tour tho state, In charge of lecturers, with dIngrams, maps, etc., to explain to the farmers the scientific and modern methods of preparing the soil, fertilising, culti vating, gathering and marketing of crops, etc.: This appeals to us strongly, os the foundation of the prosperity of this state la the farms and the farmers, and it has always been our policy to do everything In our power to promote their Interests. We have quietly, and without advertisement, spent some money, and have given personal and official encouragement to diversification >f crops, building up of lands, etc., knowing as we do that whatever ben efit# the farmer benefits us. We, therefore, are predisposed to co operate fully with you in your educa tional campaign, but unfortunately the railroad commission haa promulgated an order adopting the Hepburn law, so far aa free or reduced transportation Is concerned, and after January l, 1908, our hands are tied. This we regret, and we will say further to you, that If the railroad commission will authorise us to make an exception In your case, we will gladly transport your special over our line In Georgia, and will render you every co-operation in our power. , The relations between the farmers and the railroads are really closer and more Inter-dependent, than Is the caae with merchants, manufacturers, etc., and If we ere permitted to grant you the arrangements desired, we feel that the benefit to the farmers will eventu ally,result tn benefit to us. Respectfully, CHAR A. WICKERHIIAXl, President and General Manager. Permission Given. Since this letter was written Chair man McLendon, of the railroad com mission, has ruled that It would not be a violation of the anti-pass order for the various railroads to grant the free transportation for the “educational special." / Some question seems to have arisen as to whether or not the commission can moke such exceptions to Its order as Issued. It is nt least a matter which will doubtless make the roads hesitate to handle the trains without written consent of‘the commission. A Fortunate Texan. XIr. E. W. Goodloe, of 107 St. Louis street.

In speaking of the indictments. Judge Hopkins said: "In regard to the first indictment, 1 have only to say that I have always kept tny civil and criminal records sep arate. 'in regard to the second charge that I compelled the negro to settle a case of assault nnd battery, the facts are A warrant was sworn out against this man by a negro woman. He was brought Into my court and said be could not give bond. I told him be would have to go to jail then until the following morning, when the case would be tried. He first asked me If I would take $5 and then $10, and not send him to jail. "I took the money and when the case came up next morning, he had a war rant sworn out against the negro wom an. Finally they got together'and set tled the case, and each asked that the warrants be dismissed,' saying they Would pay the costs, which amounted to $14.60. They had no money except the $10 that Wledeman had put up as collateral. J agreed ,to knock off, $4 and take the $lo which Wledeman had put up as collateral, he agreeing to pAy the negro woman's part of the cost.
