•""TP& a x i-jn in 1 rv VI iiV/IVUin^ a;m; GLETHDRPE BITTER STRIFE Heavy Subscriptions Expected Toward $40,000 Balance by Saturday Night. Two days to raise $40,000! That’s where the Oglethorpe fund ampaign stands at present. That was the proposition confronting the workers Friday morning, in view of their decision that the $250,000 shou’d he announced in the newspapers next Sunday morning as "raised.” "This is the final, the critical stage of the work,” Captain James W. Eng lish said Thursday. "This undertak ing is one of deep significance to At lanta and to the entire South, and every good citizen should recognize that fact and act accordingly.” Captain English Sees Success. Then Captain English, touching on the scope of the proposed university, said: •'It has been objected by some few persons that $500,000—which we will nave as soon as this $250,000 is raised will not be sufficient to found a uni versity of national size and scope. “We have not the slightest idea of stopping at the half-million mark. It is a reasonable belief that the as*- ^ets of Oglethorpe will be increased to a million dollars within our day. And it is a fact that many of the great American universities, with millions of dollars of resources to- . ay, had their beginning in circum- stances far more humble than those under which Oglethorpe is being founded." Time to Write "Big History.” And now is the time to write “big history,” Captain English said. “Every subscription made before midnight Saturday will entitle the subscriber to be known as a true founder of Oglethorpe. Those who subscribe later, and after the quarter of a million mark is reached, will be helping, of course. But this is the hour when Oglethorpe is on trial.” Krazy Kat -►pynght. MM3.

Dec. 19.—A nation wide break in the ranks of suffragists is threatened to-day as the result o* the action of officers of the National American Woman Suffrage Associa tion in ousting Miss Alice Paul from the chairmanship of the Congression- p committee of the national associa tion.

Officers of the national association demanded that the money raised by Miss Paul as head of the Congression al Union be accounted for to the treasurer of the national association.

Haynes Co., 49 Whitehall St. ‘TIGER’ Supreme Court Upholds Ruling in the Famous Cassidy Case at Macon. The Supreme Court Friday In the case of Watkins against Wllkers >n, from the Superior Court of Floyd, tf- firmed the ruling of Judge Moses Wright, with directions and modifi cations, fixing the limits within which Superior Courts may enjoin “blind tigers” as nuisances The ruling brings the order of in junction within the rule established by the Court in the Cassidy case from Macon, which is that these “blind ti gers” may be permanently enjoined as nuisances onl. after a jury hear ing. Temporary injunctions may be granted for the purposes of interlocu tory hearings, but questions of fact must not be adjudicated by judges finally in such proceedings. The court also held that for h$ purposes of injunction nuisances must be located with a reasonable de gree of certainty, and that part of Judge Wright’s injunction which sought to restrain Watkins from op erating in the place complained of “and elsewhere” is modified by strik ing the word “elsewhere.” As the o**- der stands of permanent record, it re strains Watkins merely from “selling liquor” in any circumstances, but leaves the matter of determining whether he is or has been selling is a. question of fact for jury settle ment.
