For almost three hours Tuesday
Hooper Alexander pleaded eloquently
for the houee to pass the bill that meant
the materialization of hlz dream Into
an accomplished fact—the extension of
the Western and Atlantic railroad to
the sea
He began speaking at 10:10 o'clock
and until 1 o'clock, the hour previously
fixed for adjournment, he held the floor,
and. to an unusual degree, the close
attention of a majority of hie con
ferees.
Throughout hie able plea, covering a
wide range of historical facta, coupled
with clearness of argument, Mrs. Alax
ander aat In the gallery, one of her hue
band's most attentive hearers.
Immediately after the houee met at 9
o'clock Tuesday morning a number of
cal bills were placed on their passaf
Mr. Harris, of Crisp, had three bl
amending the charter of Cordele.
By Mr. McMullln, of Hart—To create
a local school system for Hartwell.
At 9:90 o'clock the special order for
the day—the Alexander bill for the ex
tension of the Western and Atlantic
railroad to tho aea—was taken up, the
houee resolving Into the committee of
the whole with Mr. Wise, of Fayette, In
the chair.
The bill was taken up by section*. Joe
Hill HaJI. of Bibb, offered an amend
ment to section one. providing for the
extension to pass thru Macon and mak
ing Savannah or Brunswick the coast
terminus.
Mr. Alexander, In openign hla argu
ment. said:
•Whether I am right or not In fight
Ing for this bill, whether or not It Is
the wisest and best thing to do, I am at
least entitled to a respectful hearing. I
have spent the post five years In study
ing this matter, and I know I am ac
tuated only by a sense of doing what I
believe Is the wisest thing for my
state."
He declared that he aeked no consid
eration on personal grounds, but purely
from the view of the state's Interest.
1 am not wedded to anything laid
down In this bill," declared Mr. Alex
ander, "except that first paragraph.
That Is the crux of the whole matter,
and that to which I have given my
closest attention. I know there are
men here who are opposed to It on any
terms; there are others who favor It.
but are concerned with the question of
finances."
Mr. Alexander said the Western and
Atlantic railroad is the moat valuable
railroad property In the 8outh, and al
most the most valuable In the Union.
This formed the reason for capital ao
ardently desiring possession of It.
“Who are the lessees of the Western
and Atlantic?” he asked. "It Is the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis—
hlch controls the pathway thru the
mountains to Chattanooga, the royal
gateway to all this rich Southern coun
try."
Mr. Alexander’s speech epitomized tho
history of the state road, nnd showed
how thoroughly he had delved Into the
subject. He also dealt at length with
the general railroad Issue and many
Illustrations of Injustices done shippers
by the great and powerful roads.
Mr. Alexander said that the heavy
watering.of railroad stock made It Im
possible for them to show good divi
dends. This, he declared, made It Im
possible to bring rates down where they
should be.
"It has been argued,” he said, “that
If the state builds this road there will
be political corruption. It Is true that
this happens sometimes In the post-
office and other departments of the

A resolution offered by Mr. Butts, of
Fannin, expressing sympathy for Rep
reaentatlve Hardeman In th* death of
hla brother, W. G. Hardeman, was
adopted.
At 1 o'clock the house adjourned un
til 9 o'clock Wednesday morning, when
argument on the Western and Atlantic
extension will be resumed.
Dr. K. G. Matheson. president of the
Georgia School of Technology, has re
turned to Atlanta from a trip to Phlla
dolphin and Atlantic City. Dr. Math*'
son went first to Philadelphia and from
there to Atlantic City to attend a meet

When he meets Mr. Ogden he will con
tinue his efforts to secure the Ogden
educational committee meeting in At
lanta next April. There are several
other Southern cities trying to gat the
convention, but Dr. Matheson says the
directors seem to favor Atlanta, altho
they have not pledged themselves. The
decision now Ilea entirely with Mr.
Ogden, and Dr. Matheson Is doing and
will continue to do all lo his power to
secure tbe convention for Atlanta. He
thinks It will be of great benefit to the

was some twenty years and more ago
that ha heard of some particularly fine
specimen thru an Australian paper. He
Immediately wrote to this Australian
only to find that the particular grass he
wanted was a native of the Island of
Ceylon. At ones he wrote to the Brit
ish consul, asking for a few seed. HI*
request was granted and a small pack
age, originally containing perhaps a
pound, waa sent to this progressiva

But when the package arrived, thanks
to the custom* officers or some curious
person, the package had been torn open
and the only seed which reached the

the creases of the envelope or package.
And It was with theaa tiny grains,
