Commissioner of Commerce and
Ijibor H M Stanley Is spending a
few days at home, enjoying a much-
needed and well-deserved rest from
hla official duties
The Commissioner is well plena#**
with *he work of his department,
which is relatively a youngster among
the other departments, and talks moat
interestingly of the seme.
Discussing the year's labors before
leaving for home. Commissioner
Stanley said:
'Already a great deal of statistical
matter concerning the industrial re
source* of the State 4whlrh has nev
er before been complied, has been dis
seminated, and a* the department
grows this work will increase and
much valuable Information will be
prepared and distributed
The department lias accomplished
a great work In seeing that the laws
regarding the employment of women
and children are complied with The
act creating this department makes
it my duty to see that these laws are
en forced.
"When T took charge of the office
the law requiring mercantile and
manufacturing establishments to fur
nish aeats to their female employees
was a dead letter, and had been for
more than twenty >ear* This law Is
now being enforced The large de
partment stores in the ltv have al
ready provided seats for their female
employees, and we now’ are looking
after the enforcement of the law In
the smaller cities and towns
"T have begun work on the second
annual report to the Governor and it
will make an even better showing
than the one issued for the year end
ing December 31 of last veer "
President T Randolph Anderson,
ex-officio Lieutenant Governor of
Georgia, 1s improving rapidly from
an operation for appendicitis, which
took piece in Savannah Monday
His physicians say that he will be
out within the next two weeks
Representative-elect Thomas Far
r^.H. of Catoosa, named to succeed
Representative Bryan, deceased, fur
nishes n fine example of the virtue of
keeping everlastingly at It!
Ho has been a candidate for the
Hours regularly for some 80 years
and never before has won out. He
has been a perpetually willing sacri
fice for principle’s sake, however, and
has not grown weary In well doing as
he managed to see things.
He accumulated 1 a large "hunch"
several years ago that sooner or J a i
er he was to serve a term in Hie
Georgia Legislature, and he never has
been able to shake himself loose from
that “hunch,” despite his varied as
sortment of Waterloo*.
And now—well, he Is Representa
tive-elect, at last, and he will
sworn in next summer, "If he lives
and nothing happens!"
Mr. Carroll is a popular and able
man, and his friends predict for him
a useful career In the House.
The chartering of the State Pecan
Bank, In Baoonton, makes the nine
teenth State bank organized and
started in business this year
On December 10 last year There
had been chartered and started In
business exactly 50 State banks—-a I
number so far ahead of this year’s
record that It wll! not be equaled even
approximately.
This has not been as good a year as
last for organizing banks —that much
Is evident—but it has been an ex- <
ceedlngly prosperous year In Georgia I
nevertheless
The joint Legislative Committee of the
Western and Atlantic Railroad, which
ts to-day looking over the State’s fine
terminal property In Chattanooga with a
view to making recommendations as to
the forthcoming release of the road,
has no power to make binding reports.
What it may have to say to the Leg
islature next summer will be merely
advisory, and In no wav mandatory.
The road will not he disposed of *.»
to Its future by the present legislative
nor, perhaps, by tlie next. It Is hoped
that the way may be cleared up com-|
pletelv. however, for the legislature that
does act finally. i»« to what terms shall
govern the re-lease of the road
'Hits property is the biggest asset the
State lias, of course. It is worth to \
day many times what it cost, and will |
continue to enhance in value as the
. u>a g«» by Thera is no doubt wh&t
ever that it will tie re leaned if It Is dls
posed of that way, which seems most ■
likely—upon terms far more advanta
geous to the State than the present con ;
t raef.
The fund arising from the rent of*this
road goes to the common school fund,
and lienee the legislature will be par
tlcularly careful to make It produce 1 ha
maximum of revenue.
Judge Moses Wright, of the Rome Su
nerlor Court circuit, who Is a mighty
hunter. recentl> had a most harrowing
experience In Alabama.
The Judge heard there was some fine
bird shorting to be had In that State.
and as It is only a few miles from his 1
home in Floyd to the Alabama line, he
finally got his consent to pay the re
quired 115 hunting license in Alabama,
and bled him f*»th to hunt He had
fine luck, too, and killed a big bag
When he started home wifi! hl» kill,
however, he suddenli recollected that
lie couldn't carry those b!»ds into Geor
gia ami not violate the law* Being a
fudge, he couldn't afford to violate the
law, no matter how great the tempta
tion. Besides, there whs u companion
hunter along who might tell It was not
long until train Nine, moreover and ho
there was nothing to it but to give all
those fine birds away -and g1\e them
