Friends and Enemies of Judge
Miller Draw Same Lines About
His Son’s Candidacy.
MACON, Sept. 20.—Next Friday
Macon will nominate a Mayor, and
he will be either Wallace Miller.
Bridges smith or A. L. Dasher, Sr.
Strictly speaking, he will be either
Miller or Smith, because Dasher, by
reason of various circumstances, Is
not , ! n running. However, he is
making an earnest campaign, direct
ing his efforts toward weakening the
administration, which is represented
by Smith.
Political experts figure that Dash
ers presence in the race is an aid to
Miller, since the latter, too, is flgh’-
Ing the administration.
The general estimate is that there
will be fully 4,300 votes polled in the
primary of September 26. Will Gunn,
campaign manager for Miller, pre
dicts a Miller majority of 650. The
Smith workers prophesy a Smith
victory of over 300. Non-partisans
look for a very close race, with the
winner getting probably 200 mo-e
votes than he needs.
It is the consensus of opinion that
the aldermanlc ticket will be greatly
split. On account of Smith’s great
personal popularity, he will get the
vote of many who will not vote far
his ticket. J. B. Riley, Dr. W. G.
Lee and Eden Taylor, of the Miller
aldermanlc candidates, and R. C.
Hazlehurst and Ross Bowdre, of the
administration ticket, will poll the
most votes. It is not believed any of the
Dasher aldermanlc candidates have
any chance for election.
The old Miller-Smith, Miller?
Moore feeling has at last been Inject
ed into this campaign, and Is. in fact,
a live issue. Judge A. L. Miller, the
father of Wallace Miller, ran against
Mr. Smith in 1905. and was defeated.
He ran against John T. Moore, the
present Mayor, in 1907, and won. He
was opposed by Mr. Moore again in
1909 and was defeated. Ever since
a citizen in local politics has been
either of the "Miller” stripe or an ad
ministration supporter. Wallace
Miller is receiving largely the same
vote that went to his father, coupled
with the passive support of the Law
Enforcement League, which his father
never received at any time.
If Miller is elected, he will be the
youngest Mayor Macon ever had. He
is only 27 years old, though the father
of three children and a Representative
in the Legislature. Mr. Smith wit
Mayor from 1899 to 1907.

Liquor Seller Defies Sheriff While
Convicted Slayer Feigns
Sudden Violent Insanity.
ATHENS, Sept. 20. —In the Banks
County Superior Court, at Comer,
yesterday Judge Brand was given an
other fine opportunity to further his
crusade against the pistol toter. He
was called upon to pass sentence on
an offender who pulled his gun in the
presence of the court and juries, law
yers and attendants.
A man named Saey, up for selling
whisky, on being asked to remain in
an anteroom while a bondsman was
looked up, insisted on following the
Sheriff. When the officer sought to
put him back in the room by force
he drew his pistol right in the court
room. He was promptly given six
months on the gang by Judge Brand.
Another interesting case was that
againsLPink Heywood, who is rather
an uniqhe character. His father was
a one-legged beggar, one brother was
hanged for murder, another Is serv
ing a life sentence for participation in
the killing and now Pink is up for
the second time in a murder case.
Some time ago he was convicted of
murder and sentenced to life, but on
a motion for a new’ trial the •Su
preme Court said there were no
grounds for manslaughter and recom
mended that he be found guilty in the
first degree.
When Pink heard of this he sud
denly went crazy in the jail and raved
like a maniac. He was tried this
week for lunacy and the jury return
ed a verdict that he was faking, and
when the new trial was brought up
it was found that the main witness
was dead and that another could not
be present. The trial could not be
heard, but the prisoner was so ve
hement in “cussing” and raving
that the judge sentenced him to six
months in the gang for cursing before
ladies in the courtroom.

by City of Savannah
To Be Used.

definite arrangements have beer,
made regarding the construction of
the proposed turning basin in Savan

in Master Johnny McLellan, son of
J. G. McLellan, assistant cashier of
the First National Bank, the young
est dairyman In the State, and one
who has met with great success in
his work.
The little fellow, who is now just 13
years of age, began his dairy busi

though his father was amply able to
fit up a good dairy for him, he In
sisted on building up his business by
bls own individual efforts.
Starting with the one cow, he put
on a wagon and peddled his milk over

bought another cow. His bank ac
count continued to grow, and he kept
adding to his stock, the result being
that he Js now the possessor of six
excellent Jersey cows, which he alone
attends to.
Arising at daybreak, the little fel
low feeds and, milks his cows and
then brings his milk into Dalton from
his suburban home, the milk finding a
ready sale. He also looks after the
churning and sells considerable but
ter.
The Itttie fellow’s successful ven
ture In the business world was his
own Idea, and his father permitted
him to have his way, and the little
fellow now has an excellent and grow
ing business.
Gives SIO,OOO Manse
For Love of Pastor
Donation Made by Savannah Man to
Westminster Presbyterian
Church.
SAVANNAH, Sept. 20.—0 n the eve
of the completion of the handeome
Memorial Westminster Church, it is
just becoming known that a benefi
cent admirer of the pastor of this
congregration has pledged the dona
tion of a SIO,OOO manse. The name of
the donor of the $40,000 for the erec
tion of the church building has never
been made public, because it was his
wish that the fact be not exploited,
and the giver of the manse seems
destined to have the same secrecy as
to his identity preserved. It is said
on good authority that there is no re
lation between the tw*o donors.
The church was erected as a me
morial to the mother of the man who
gave of his wealth for it.
It has not been determined where
the manse is to be erected. Those
who have the matter in hand are
naturally inclined to build it as near
as possible to the church.'
Statesboro Farmer
Has Record Yield
Field Expects to Make Five Bales
of Cotton on Two
Acres.
SAVANNAH, Sept. 20.—1 t is gen
erally conceded that F. E. Field, ot
Statesboro, will be the champion cot
ton raiser in Bulloch County, If not
in the State of Georgia, this season.
Field has two acres planted in a very
proliflc variety, and it is "the opinion
of him and many others that he will
make five bales on the two acres. He
says he has counted the bolls on some
of the stalks, on some of which were
over 300 forms.
It Is the purpose of Field to save
every seed from this two-acre patch
and plant his entire crop with this va
riety next year, in which event there
is no telling how much cotton he
will be able to make. There Is said
to be a large demand for cotton seed
in Statesboro, but it is not likely that
any of these will be put on the mar
ket for crushing purposes.

BEER SALES IN
GEORGIA DNDER
BAN OF COURT
Whole State May Be Dry if High
est Tribunal Upholds Deci
sion of Macon Judge.
MACON, Sept. 20. —If the Supreme
Court upholds the decision of Judge
H. A. Mathews, of the Bibb Superior
Court, to the effect that the sale of
beer Is a violation of the State pro
hibition law, every saloon In Georgia
will probably be closed. They will
certainly be closed In Macon, where
the Law Enforcement League has
raised $5,000 with which to prosecute
Its campaign. •
Edward Cassidy was recently pros
ecuted by the league for running a
public nuisance, in that he sold whis
ky at his saloon. Proof of the sale of
liquor being made, Judge Mathews Is
sued a permanent injunction against,
Cassidy and forfeited his license. Prior
thereto, however, w’hlle the case was
pending, he Issued an injunction,
which temporarily restrained Cassidy
from selling "any intoxicating liq
uors.” Cassidy proceeded with the
sale of beer. Several bottles of It
were purchased by the league and
given to a chemist for analysis. The
analysis showed that the beer con
tained 5 per cent of alcohol.
Judge Mathews did not fine or sen
tence Cassidy, because It was the first
case of the kind tried in the State,
but he put all saloon owners on no*
tlce that If brought before him for
selling beer, he would adjudge them
guilty. He contends that any bever
age which will produce Intoxication
is under the ban of the law. and It is
his opinion that beer Is Intoxicating.
The saloon keepers of Macon are
alarmed over the situation, and fully
half of them have declared their In
tention of retiring from the business
after this year. They feel that they
can not afford to jeopardize their
money by Investing It In a business
which Is liable to be exterminated any
minute.
Council Regulation
Os Wharfage Rates
Savannah City Fathers Drafting Or
dinance Fixing Charges—Busi
ness Interests Complaining.
SAVANNAH, Sept. 20.—Regulation
of wharfage rates in Savannah by
ordinance Is being considered by the
Tax and Commerce Committee of the
City Council.
That it Is within the power of
Council to draft an ordinance fixing
the various rates to be charged Is
the suggestion made to this commit
tee. , The matter has been tentatively
considered and will be taken up again
shortly.
Business Interests generally are
complaining of the wharfage rates
charged by the Merchants and Min
ers, and the fact that the port Is be
ing harmed by this practice has In
fluenced the committee of Council In
considering means of affording re
lief. The City Attorney has been
asked to furnish a legal opinion on
the matter.
In an ordinance of this sort It
would be necessary to fix the rates on
all kinds of goods shipped through
the port.
National Road to

SAVANNAH, Sept. 20 *— “Road to

coats.
To Congressman Charles G. Ed
wards belongs the distinction of wear
ing the first of these, and to Mayor
R. P. Lovell, of Tybee Island, the
second.
An attempt is being made to secure
Government aid in the building of the
highway, which will be a military
road to Fort Screven, as well as an
automobile road to Tybee. The only
connection between Tybee and the
city now is over a branch of the Cen
tral of Georgia Railway. Such a road
as contemplated has long been con
sidered a military necessity.

This being the year to elect a
Mayor, considerable Interest Is at
tached to the primary. The Incumbent
Is not a candidate for re-election and
it Is extremely doubtful if Mayor
Reed will get Into the race at a later
time. His place Is being sought by
Scott T. Beaton. Aiderman from the
Fourth Ward; Dr. H. A. Cannon,
former City Clerk J. W. Strickland
and R. B. Ballard. One or more can
didates for Mayor are expected in the
field early In October, and speculation
Is growing keen as to who the new
entries will be.
Aldermanlc Candidates.
The second and Fourth Wards are
the only ones so far with candidates.
The Fourth Ward seat on the Alder
manic Board is sought by Dr. J. L.
Walker, who was for some time con
sidered as one of the likely candi
dates for Mayor; W, W. Sharpe, Jr.,
and the Rev. J. C. Pumphreys. The
Second has only one candidate to
date. Dr. J. H. I,attlmer. Aiderman
H. Hengeveld will probably offer for
re-election, but he has not announced.
In the Sixth it is probable that Mo-
Gregor Mayo will be elected to suc
ceed Aiderman C. A. LeCount, who
will not be a candidate for re-election
This is an off year for the First, Third
and Fifth Wards.
No issues have been developed so
far In the mayoralty contest but later
on It Is believed the race will grow
warm. In fact, voters anticipate one
of the warmest primaries the city has
known in years. The chances for the
near-beer proposition to figure in the
primary are still regarded as rather
strong.
Registration Book, Closed.
To-day the registration books for
the charter election, which will be
held October 4. closed. Only those
who had not registered for the last
city election had to register and of
the number qualifying it is believed
a majority are opposed to making any
changes in the form of city govern
ment at this time. The election will
be held to decide whether to have a
city manager or an increased Board
of Aidermen, serving without pay,
and the Mayor to receive double his
present salary, or $1,200. A civil serv
ice commission is also proposed and
heads of the five departments created
by the new charter are to be appoint
ed by the Mayor.
