NEVTN 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.

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.
