Whoever thought the great state of Georgia—the Empire Btate of the South—would be too poor’to buy post age stamps Shades of Oglethorpe and the rest of the old-timers! Yesp one department of the great state of .Georgia Is practically stalled because of a lack of postage stamps and money to buy them. It doesn't mean, of course, that this department will have to wait until the- legislature meets In order to get a few postage stamps.' But the department will have to wait until the flrst of the new year, for Uncle 8am requires cash for the stamps he sells. This department Is the railroad com mission and at present and for the past ten days Secretary George F. Montgomery, has had part of hls work at a standstill because he has no stamps. stamps and because there Is no appro priation available with which to pur- clfhse any. These stamps are necessary to place upon the big batch of annual reports of the commission that- Secretary Montgomery has beon sending over the country. He kept them going through the malls as long as the stamps lasted and then he had to suspend operations. This was ten days ago and the work will not commence until after the flrst of the new year. It so happens that the appropriation nvallablo for the railroad commission for this year was exhausted some time ago and at present there are a few bills unpaid because of the lack of money. Another appropriation will be avalU able on January 1, and then these bills will be paid and Secretary Montgom ery will be able to buy some postage T IN POLICE COURT PLEADS FOR MERCY “Take this woman nwo.v.
