RAGING STREAMS
SWEEP AWAY DAMS
A, A,
By J’rJrste Leased Wire.
Greensboro, N. Aug. 31.—A heavy
rainfall, m’ompasled with cloudbursts
in Wilkes and Surry counties, did thou-
•andH of dollars damage, washing
away the Southern railway bridge over
Mitchells river, submerging the track
• for about four miles near Pilot Moun
tain, and destroying mills and other
1 property.
The rain fell In torrents. Cloudbursts
along the face of the Blue Mountains
In Mitchells river and Ararat river car
ried them to a high and' dangerous
point. The water swept everything In
front of It.
At North Wllkesboro a dam was
washed away which had stood for more
than loo years. The dam belonged to
R. N. Hackett, Democratic candidate
for congress* und his brother, and fur
nished power for the Gordon roller
mills and the North Wllkesboro elec
trie light plant.
The loss to the Southern railway
reaches Into the thousands. Telegraph
.wires are down and news cannot be
hhd.
. The Fries power plant, on the Yadkin
river, which furnished power for tho
electric lights and street cars of Win
ston-Balem. la shut down.
Hundreds of people were .attracted
to Brannen & Anthony's drug store,
102 Whitehall street, between the hours
of 3:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon and
10:80 o’clock Thursday night by the
delightful music of Wurm’s orchestra,
and were entertained In a most pleas
ant manner.
The occasion was the opening of
the enlarged and Improved store and
was one ot the moat aucceaatul and
brilliant affairs of the kind In Avhlch
Atlanta has ever participated.
The store with Its mahogany fixtures
Is, In Itself, as pleasing to the eye as
It Is possible to make a pharmacy, and
added to this were the elaborate dec
orations. During the afternoon boxes
of candy were given as souvenirs, as
well as |100 in gold.
The place of business has been ren
ovated throughout and, with the ad
dition, has a depth of 200 feet, a width
of 40 feet, and a prescription depart
ment 40 by fiO feet.
Both members of the Arm are be
lievers in the old saw, "There's noth
ing that succeeds like success." From
the time of their modest beginning five
years ago, the firm has met with suc
cess at every turn, having built up
one of the largest drug businesses In
the city. Starting with one drug store,
Brannen Jtc Anthony now own and
operate three, all of which are carry
ing on an Immense business.
The arrangements of the renovated
drug store are Ideal. Especially Is this
true of the prescription room, where It
will lie possible to fill 600 prescriptions
dally. Before the additions were
made the average number of prescrip
tions put up a day was 260 and with
the Improved facilities It la believed
that tho business will tax the capacity
>f the prescription department to Its
fullest extent.
Both members of the firm are native
Georgians. Mr. Brannen came from
Zebu Ion, Oa„ and Mr. Anthony from
Washington, Wilkes county, Georgia.

SOUTHERN STEEL COMPANY
ABSORBS ANOTHER PLANT.
Because of tho numerous bank fail
ures throughout the country a move
ment has been started by the Chicago
Chamber of Commerce to establish a
system of postal savings banks In the
United States, and It Is probable that
the city council of Atlanta will pass
resolutions at Its next session helping
along the movement.
Tho resolutions which have been
drawn up aro aa follows:
"Whereas, repeated failures of sav
ings banks involving the small savings
of wage-earners and others have dem
onstrated the necessity of a system by
which such savipgs can be made ab
solutely secure; and,
"Whereas, this question has been
solved In other countries by the Insti
tution of postal savings hanks which
havo proved to be effective In encour
aging thrift und economy among the
people, It Is hereby
"Resolved, That we favor the estab
lishment of the postal savings banks in
the United States and urge upon con
gress the speedy enactment of the nec
essary laws for this purpose.”
In a communication on the subject to
the city council, Chairman Julius (}old-
zler, of the committee In charge of
the movement, says In Great Britain
alone there are 9,000,000 depositors In
the postal savings banks and over
$700,000,000 on deposit.
The communication contains such
spicey sentences as the following
"Care of the small savings of the

Sworn to and subscribed before me
thlH August 31, 1906.
J. C. CARLISLE,
Notary Public, Fulton Co., Go.
Referring to tne above affidavit. I
have this to say In addition: I filled
the supply 8 box for the Oak Grove
precinct In the presence of Manager
J. S. lieurd and sealed the box, taking
his receipt for It. When this was done
I was no longer responsible for Its care.
I also gave Manager Heard explicit
and detailed Instructions us to the safe
guarding of the "official ballots" and
the proper conducting of the primary
In his precinct. I asked him If he un
derstood the Instructions and he readi
ly answered In the affirmative. As he
had previously served as manager, I
presumed he knew how the primary
should be conducted.
As Is required of me, as secretary of
the Democratic executive committee of
this county, I checked In the supply
box, as returned by Manager Heurd,
and find a number of mistakes were
made.
1. The registration list 1 Instructed
to be kept by nianuger and clerk at
entrance of the precinct or polling
place and checked as a voter's regis
tration was foiVl correct, was not
canceled at all. This Is entirely wrong.
Who knows or can know whether
a voter gets more than one ticket when
no check Is put by cancelling the name
off the registration list? Practices of
this kind Is fruught with great danger.
Mistake No. 1.
2. I explicitly Instructed that a pri
vate check mark be put at the top and
bottom of each ballot given out, so that.
If a ballot should get blown away,
or be stolen. It could not be used,
find no such check mark on the mutl
luted ballot returned. Mistake No. 2.
3. The board of'managers and clerks
say In the general affidavit that onl
$wo mutilated UUIots were returns
whereas three were returned. Mistake
No. 3. There Is, we are told, luck In
odd numbers, and I am sorry the board
overlooked this in their affidavit.
4. I carefully Instructed that both
registration lists be put In ballot box
after the count was completed. I find
both In the supply box. Mistake No. 4.
6. I explicitly Instructed that one
precinct return and one clerk’s list of
voters be put in an envelope, on which
plain directions were written, and re-
turned to me the day after the election.
All precinct returns were put in the
ballot box. Mistake No. 6. Manager
Heard had to be given special permis
sion by the general committee to open
his bullet box and get his returns.
6. J carefully Instructed that one
tally sheet be put in the ballot box.
Both were put In the supply box. Mis
take No. 6.
7. L carefully instructed
T. I carefully instructed that one
clerk*. Jlst of voters be put In the bal
lot box. Both were put In the supply
box. Mistake No. 7.
8. When I dellveted to Manager
Heard the money to pay himself and
colleagues of his precinct I thanked
him and through him the remaining
officials of his precinct. I asked him
If everything passed off smoothly, as
I asked all the managers present. He
said everything passed off all right.
If he had been Inconvenienced by
shortage of "official ballots,” why did
he not complain at that time? Mis
take No. 8. I would have Immediately
opened the supply box In his presence
and he certainly would have discov
ered tho unused ballots.
8. Tho board of managers and clerka
swear In their affidavit thftt no unused
ballots were returned. The seal, os
has been attested by affidavit, was un
broken when Messrs. Glass, Bosche
and myself examined the supply box
returned by Manager Heard. The sup
ply box was opened and twenty-eight
unused ballots were found. Not hav
ing superhuman vision, I can not ex
plain why the unused ballots were In
the supply box, except that they were
put In before sealing the box. The
twenty-eight unused ballots were and
are In the supply box, silent witnesses
to the verity of the earthquake of the
late primary.
I respectfully submit that in view
of tho many mistakes shown above, Is
It a wonder that the gentlemanly affi
ants are mistaken In saying no unused
ballots were returned.
I have no harsh criticism for thj
board of managers and clerks of thj
Oak Grove precinct. I believe them to
be gentlemen of honesty and integri
ty. They are simply honestly mb taken
in their affidavit. I would unhesitat
ingly risk them again, for I believe
that they would not do an untentlonal
wrong.

In a flve-minute talk Charles Banks,

the bank as "one of the many Insti

An already short cotton crop In
Georgia will be made still shorter by
the prevalence In certain sections of
cotton anthracnose or boll rot.
First- reports of the anthracnose
came from Flovllla, In Butts county,
and Assistant Entomollglst A. C. Lew
is went there "to make an Investiga
tion. Since then samples of the bolls
so affected have been received by En
tomologist Smith from Byron, Houston
county, Sandersvlie, Washington coun
ty, and from Emanuel county, indicat
ing Its prevalence through tho middle
section of the state.
When reports first came In of the
disease planters feared It was the
deaded boll weevil, but careful Inves
tigation shows that no boll weevil or
other cotton. Insects Infested the fields.
Mr. Lewis’ report on tho disease at
Flovllla, and the manner in which tt
Is to be combatted will prove of gre^t
Interest to farmers. Entomologist
Smith says that the exceeslve ratna are
largely responsible for the boll rot.
Exists in Many Fields.
I visited a number of cotton fields
around Flovllla and found the disease,
cotton anthracnose, present In every
one to a greater or less extent. In one
field of fifteen acres we failed to find
a single stalk of rototn free from the
disease. Many stalks had from one to
three bolls diseased, and some as high
us seventeen bolls. A few stalks had
every boll affected. In many of the
fields from 5 to lo per cent of the bolls
were found to be diseased. From par-
tlee around town It was also learned
that many fields uround In the county
were affected to a greater or less ex
tent tn the same way.
’’Cotton anthracnose Is a fungous
disease that works mainly on the cot
ton bolls, causing them to rot and de
cay. In other words, It Is caused by a
parasitic plant, of a low order, growing
on the cotton bolls. This parasite, like
other plants, requires certain weather
conditions for Its best development.
These Ideal weather conditions we
have had tills summer, In the wet
weather, so that a disease which has
hitherto done only slight damage, In
Bmall areas, has this summer done
more damage than usual.
•‘Cotton anthracnose first appears on
the bolls as a small round speck, that
looks like a pin puncture. This spreads
In every direction until some times the
whole boll Is covered. This speck Is
nt first dark, then It soon becomes
pink around the edges and is covered
with a white fungus. As soon as the
fungus reaches the cotton In the boll
It spreads very’ rapidly end the cotton
soon turns black and rots. This hap
pens very often when the diseased
spot Is not larger around than a lead
pencil. " ~ “■*

planted In cotton next year we would
ndvlae that all of the cotton stalks be
carefully raked up and burned thla
fall. By ao doing the diseased bolls
will be destroyed, thus reducing the
fungus plant which causes anthrac
nose.
"3. We think it best, however, If
these fields are not planted In cotton
for two or three years. In examining
the fields around Flovllla we found the
disease much worse on fields that had
been In cotton last year. In fields fol
lowing com or potatoes the disease
was not doing much damage. In fact,
we believe, and our belief Is backed by
experiments, that whether cotton plant
ers have cotton affected with anthrac-
nlse, black root, etc., or not, It will
well repay them to practice rotation
of crops and careful selection of seed.

, insect, nn doubt help spread
the disease from one stalk to nnother.
But what Insect was spreading It tn
this case we were not able to discover.
How to Fight It.
From tho nature of the disease
nothing can be done now to check It
this summer, but there are a few points
which. If carried out t/y the cotton
planters, may greatly reduce the dis
ease next year.
1. As the fungus causing the dis
ease gets nn the seed, no seed should
be saved from cotton fields that are
nffected with this disease, unles from
selected plants that are free from the
disease. By plantlrg the seed from
these resistant plants one may In s
few ycata.secure a strain of cotton tttat
Is very resistant to the disease. By
this method we have In two years se
cured a strain of cotton that Is very
resistant Co the Mack mot. M'e see
no reason why the same method should
not work Just as well with cotton an
thracnose. With this In view we se
lected a number of resistant plants
from two or the diseased areas near
Flovllla. We urge others to do like
wise.
