Muscogee Engineer Makes Road Tiling Saves County More Than Enough on Pipe to Pay His Salary. COLUMBUS, Aug. 30.—Julian R.

In addition to this, he is building a sys tem of public roads at a cost of ap-' proximately $2,000 per mile that can not be excelled anywhere in the South. v Convicted Bank Head Fights for Freedom Attorneys Ask That J.

Appointment of Ellis as General Manager Means Alliance of the Georgia, L. & N. and A. C. L. AUGUSTA. An*. 30.—While there has been nothing official given out in regard to the significance of the appointment of J. II. Elll®, secretary of the Louisville and Nashville Rail road. to bo acting general manager of the Georgia road, still it is believed that the step means a closer working agreement between the Georgia and the Louisville and Nashville and At lantic Coast Line systems than ever before. It Is pointed out that Mr. Ellis was selected from the "official family,” eo tp apeak, of the Louis ville and Nashville and he was in stalled here last week by First Vice President W. L. Mapother. ' The Georgia Railroad and Bank ing Company was leased on May 7, 1881, to William M. Wadley, at that time controlling the Central of Geor gia Railroad. A short time later the Central let the Louisville and Nashville have a half interest ln the lease, and when the Central went to the wall the Atlantic Coast Line took over the half interest owned by the Central. Cosat Line Gets In. Later the Cosat Line secured the Louisville and Nashville by purchase and the Georgia is now a part of the big Coast Line-Louisville and Nashville system, although like the Louisville - and Nashville not losing its identity and operating, in a way, entirely independent of any other road. The lease of the Georgia Railroad ar.d Banking Company provides that the lessees shall pay to the stock holders of the property $600,000 per year. The capital stock of the Geor gia is $4,200,000 and the bonded in debtedness Is $2,500,000. The $600,000 rental pays the stock dividends and also interest on the bonds. Georgia Railroad fcitock has never paid less than 10 per cent in recent years, and has been paying 12 per cent. Walters Visits Augusta.

Augusta to Register For White Primary Six Councilmen To Be Elected—Can didates Announce—Only Two Contests Thus Far. COLUMBUS, Aug. 30.—The people of Columbus have not in many years been so wrought up over an approach ing election as they are over the water works bond election to be held October 18. While only about 700 voters have registered thus far, it is expected that the registration will run well above the <1,500 mark, before the books close September 28. Both sides are organizing for the fight; in fact, it may be said that they are already organized, it Is generally predicted that it is going to be one of the most bitter lights that have been seen in Columbus in many years. While It is not charged by the ad vocates of bonds, directly, the im pression is given out by them tha: the Columbus Water Supply company is owned by the Stone A Webster in terests of Boston, Mass., althougn Birmingham, Ala., capital purchased the plant ono year ago and are now engaged in spending $100,000 in mak ing improvements in the system. The, members of the Municipal Ownership Club has Issued an ad dress to the voters of Columbus ln which they are told that the water franchise is the only ono left the city and urging them to help the city utilize that one. They also ask the voters if they had not rather trust men at home to manage their affairs than men from Birmingham, Philadelphia, Baltimore, or Boston. The address closes with the state ment that Columbus is able to man age her own affairs. Meetings Are Hold. While the advocatos of bonds have been holding regular meetings and discussing iheir side of the issue from all standpoints, those opposing bonds are equally as active. Mayor L. H. Chappell is the chief champion of the municipal bond ad vocates, ably backed by a number of the best known and most prominent citizens of Columbus, but the oppo nents of the bond issue claim among their numbers quite a few men of much wealth, from a local standpoint. The Mayor is authority for the statement that it is to be a light to the finish this time, and that the contest is to be a really bitter one. It now seems as if there will be a contest the like of which Columbus has never seen before. It is also pretty certain that there will be feelings of bitterness en gendered that will not die out for a number of years. It is one time when It looks as if those on opposite sides are to line up in various lines pf business and support each other, to the exclusion of all others. While it Is a bitter fight, there are compara tively few of those who are impartial that will vouchsafe a guess as to outcome will be.
