GEOB IN LINE EDR ROADS BILL Rural Sections Hope Gordon Lee’s Efforts for Measure Will Meet Success. A very great deal of interest is - felt throughout Georgia, particularly in the rural sections, in a bill now before the United States senate, after having passed the house by a tremendous ma jority, which has for its object the promotion of good roads construction through Federal rental of the same for rural mail delivery purposes. This bill, which is pending as a rider to the postoffice appropriation bill. and. therefore, is more than likely to pass. 1s the compromise consolidation of several bills introdm ed in congress for the encouragement of good roads build ing, and was reported to the house bv tlte agricultural committee as a. com mittee measure. Gordon Lee. representative from the Seventh Georgia congressional district, who is a member of the agricultural committee, was one of the leaders in the fight to get this bill through the committee and through the house. Mr. Lee made a speech on the floor of the house in favor of the measure, which attracted wide-spread attention. What the Bill Provides. Stripped of its techideal terms, the hill provides that any county in any state of the Union, wherein rural or star mall routes are maintained, may build roads of a specified kind, and rent them to the Federal government for use of the mail service, at from sls to $25 per mile per annum, if it so elects. Counties able and so desiring may build these Toads, under the provisions es the contemplated law. and thereby find for themselves good Investments, providing a direct financial return, nr they may build them through bond Is sues and depend upon the Federal rent als to pay the interest thereon. The roads thus rented, by the gov ernment for the mail service would be open, of course, to the general public. As a matter of fact, government de liveries would rarely be made over these roads more than twice a day. six days to the week. To Encourage Good Roads. The primary purpose of this bill is to encourage the construction of good roads everywhere throughout the Union in su' lr w ise as the Federal gov ernment may. Manx hills have, been introduced in congress looking to Federal aid in the matter of good roads construction, but congress ha.s invariably found it diffi cult to get around the legal obstruc tions standing between congress and Its desires This bill, the committee, on agriculture thinks, meets every legal eblection and is framed to bear evenly end throughout th*-- entire United States. The committee on agriculture be Iteves that this measure, while frankly nut forward to encourage good roads construction, may be depended upon if generally adopted, to increase largely the use of the rural mail service every where Eventually, at least, the com mittee thinks, the general construction of roads under the provisions of this bill will prove to be financially profits - ble to the government, because of the extension of the mail service, tnfi tn the meantime it will boos vast benefit and help to the people, particularly the farmers and agricultural part of the population, because of the much better roads that will he constructed under its provisions. Congressman Lee gives it as his opinion that this bill undoubtedly will be enacted into law by the present congress, and tha' the president will ’ sign it promptly. , JEALOUS BLACK KILLS WIFE.

He has been spending a few days on his farm. prcparatoi\ to entering at once upon a peaceful existence, more or less removed from polities. Later along—well Mr. Hudson says he may have a try at the political game, from one angle or another. "1 wish to correct on<* impression that has inadvertently gone abroad, partly through misunderstanding and partly through misinformation. In a list of names given out by Mr Frank Reynolds, purporting to be my cam paign committee, and supposedly those who inducted me to enter the guberna torial contest, with promises of finan cial support, and so on. appear the names of Judge George Hillyer and Judge John S. Candler. of Atlanta, and some others. “I wish to say that neither gentle man had anything to do with getting me into the gubernatorial race, nor with getting me out. Both are my loyal friends, and have been. 1 have nothing but gratitude in my heart for them. “1 wish to say that much in justice to them, and because there is some misapprehension about their connection with my late campaign involving them unpleasantly.” Mr. Hudson will be in Atlanta for the remainder of this week. The governorship race is the absorbing topic of comment among statesmen, real and near, passing through Atlanta nowa days. It generally L« agreed that John M. Slaton has the best end of the contest, so far as present appearances go. and it further is agreed that bp stands to win. provided “something doesn’t happen.” Il is not thought likely that something will “happen. ’ of course still, one hears a person of speculative and argumenta tive frame of mind throw out a sugges tion along that line now and then. Fnr instance ‘ There Is one thing that can. and will, seriously damage Jack Slaton's cause in Georgia. ' said an observer of events and things, discussing the governorship mat ter today, “and that might, in certain cir cumstances. actually defeat him, and that is continued ’nagging’ of Tom Hudson, because of something Hudson did. or is alleged to have done, to somebody or other of this or that political faith long ago. “Hudson may nr may not have been guilty of 'ingratitude’ when he favored Senator Smith rather than Senator Ter rell in the contest for the succession to Senator Clay, and he may or maj r not have made a mistake when be ‘forsook' one crowd for another, bark yonder some in the dim and relatively distant past; but if .lack Slaton’s friends want Tom Hudson’s friends to support Jack Slaton for governor which many of them Incline cordially to do they will not ‘nag’ Hudson too far. nor will they seek to rub anything in too deep’. “There isn’t any use going into this matter further right now. A word to the wise is sufficient Hudson’s friends feel mighty kindly toward Slaton now and I hope they will continue so to feel. And will. If only some feu of Mr Sla ton’s foolish friends will let. them.” And these sentiments found hearty ap proval at the hands of the audience Mushroom Coms.

The senator is 71 years of age. and there isn’t a better specimen of physical manhood in Washington over 1 50. He keeps his good health largely by walking: he has sought most successfully to I)Blance his mental activity with physi cal exercise. “I fell into the habit of walking with . him. and 1 have grown very fond of the exercise.” concluded Mr. Boifeuillet. “Walking is fine business for any man.” I Sb CLEVELANO “ MANNING’S D " “STORE BEAUTIFUL” Pl Where so many Pianos are being sold during rjji; sssJ DS our G ran< l Opening Sale.
