PLAN TD PROTECT GAME
Sportsmen of Georgia Organize
Protective Association.
CALL ISSUED FDD MEMBERS
The Standard Game Law Prohibiting
the Sale of Game and Licensing
Hunters to Be Passed.
Atlanta, Ga. —A movement is being
started to form an organization of the
leading sportsmen of the state for the
purpose of passing suitable game laws
and to see that the law is enforced
when passed.
Charles T. Hopkins of Atlanta has
Interested himself in this movement,
and, with three others, has issued a
card to the sportsmen of Georgia to
co-operate in the movement.
The game law now in force in Ala
bama, which is known as the stand
ard game law, is the one that Mr.
Hopkins and his associates are hoping
to pass. The first purpose of this law
is to prohibit the sale of game in the
state, thus stopping the promiscuous
shooting of game. The other principal
features of the act are to fix a license
of $1 on the residents of a county for
a gun, and sls license on a non-resi
dent; to have all lands posted, so that
a hunter cannot shoot on the tenant’s
land without hisi written permission.
The law lias been in vogue in the
state of Alabama for the past two
years, and has proven a success.
The following card has been issued
to the sportsmen of Georgia and all
who are interested in this matter and
want to see the game of the state pro
tected, can become a member of the
organization by sending their names to
Charles L. Davis, Warm Springs, Ga.,
the secretary of the new association:
To the Sportsmen of Georgia: Eacii
of you realize that our game is rapidly
vanishing to the extermination point
—a result due to insufficient laws and
the indifference of those interested.
Only a little active, intelligent co
operation of the real sportsmen is
needed to correct the evil.
If you are willing to give a few mo
ments of your time to the procure
ment of better laws and a more rigid
enforcement of them, when obtained —
whereby there may be game in plenty
for all—then send a post card, with
your name and address to Charles L.
Davis, Warm Springs, Ga.
He will act as present chairman
and secretary for the Georgia Game
Protective Association, and will pro
ceed promptly to perfect a preliminary
organization of Georgia sportsmen to
the end above indicated.
Please call your brother sportsman’s
attention to this communication. Chas.
T. Hopkins, Atlanta; Seaton Grant
land, Griffin; Charles Woolfolk, Co
lumbus; Charles L. Davis, Warm
Springs.

At State Fair in Atlanta Was a
Great Success.
Atlanta. Ga. —President W. H. Mc-
Kenzie of the Cotton Seed Crushers’
Association of Georgia, through Sec
retary Fielding Wallace of Augusta,
Issued a call for the members of
the association, representing every
cotton seed oil mill in Georgia, to
meet in Atlanta on Monday, October
lth, to celebrate “Cotton Seed Crush
ers’ Day at the state fair. Asa re
sult, over five hundred members of
the State and Interstate Associations
were present on that occasion to en
joy the exercises at the state fair,
the luncheon was served on the
grounds and a smoker was given
that night at the New' Kimball, when
a number of short talks w'ere made by
the guests present. A large delegation
attended from Albany, headed bv R-
G. Riley; from Dawson, headed by
J. H. Fulford; from Montezuma, head
ed by President McKenzie; from Sa
vannah, headed by G. T. Tennille ;
from Macon, headed by W. E. McCaw;
from Carrollton, headed by J. A. Ay
cock; from Augusta, headed by Secre
tary Wall^pe.
At the state fair the Cotton Seed
Crushers’ Association has arranged a
most attractive exhibit. It is located
in the garicultural hall. There, in
charge of E. R. Ravenel, is shown all
the products of the cotton seed, run
ning through lint, 1 inters, hulls, meal,
crude oil, refined oil, soap stock, com
pounds for shortening and the various
articles made from these products. On
either side of the exhibit are cooking
booths where cotton seed oil com
pound is used as a shortening instead
of lard.
CONVICTS IN DEMAND.
Various Counties Throughout the
State Ask for Prisoners.
Atlanta, Ga. —Letters received from
various counties over the state by the
prison commission indicate that all of
the misdemeanor convicts now on
hand will be taken, the officials of
fifteen counties having signified their
willingness to take this class of con
victs. The letters in reply to inqui
ries sent out show that the counties
will take from six to fifty each.
Similar letters have been received
in answ’er to inquiries as to the fel
ony convicts, and the prison commis
sion officials are of the opinion that
all of the felony convicts will be dis
posed - of in this manner. Within a
short time the commission will have
600 misdemeanor convicts on its hands
when the wild cat camps go out of
business on November 1, and it is be
lieved that all of these will be taken
by the various counties.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
For the better advertising of Augus
ta’s great resources before the world
the chamber of commerce of that city
will issue a booklet descriptive of the
many advantages that are to be found
in the Queen City of the Savannah
river valley.
Pensions for the fourth quarter are
not expected by Bibb county veterans
until about the first of December.
Those who have called upon Ordinary
Wiley for information concerning the
payment of the fourth installment
have been told that the money would
be sent as soon as it could be se
cured by the commission.
Ordinary John R. Wilkinson of Ful
ton county issued a marriage license
to two well known old colored people
of Atlanta, namely, Isaac Bell, aged
7G, and Sallie Craig, aged 86. It was
stated by both parties to the ap
proaching contract that they had been
sweethearts since childhood, but that
unfortunate circumstances had pre
vented their union before this time.
Collections by the receivers of the
Exchange bank of Macon were slow
during the month of September, as
the monthly report which was filed in
the superior court gives less than
$4,000 as the amount taken in during
the month. This means that another
dividend is not yet in sight unless col
lections grow more rapidly and a
smaller dividend is declared. So far
the bank has paid 65 per cent of its
indebtedness and hopes to bring the
amount up to at least 75 before the
end of the year.
After a consultation with attorney
General Hart Secretary of State Phil
Cook has announced that the election
managers in the national election
are required by law to make two sep
arate returns, one to the governor and
another to the secretarw of state. Ac
cording to the law as interpreted by
the two officials, the managers will
be required to make returns for elec
tors and congressmen to the govern
or, while returns for the vote on con
stitutional amendments must be made
to the secretary of state.
The prison commission has been
notified of the escape of Jim Council,
a convict, from the Durham coal
mines, in North Georgia. Council was
sentenced from Bibb county, for a
term of fifteen years for burglary.
With Oliver Brown he made his es
cape by climbing through the air shaft
of the mine during the working hours.
Brown was captured before getting
beyond the range of the guards.
Macon will be better off next year
with the additional convicts that will
be secured from the state as a result
of the passage of the anti-lease bill.
Heretofore Bibb county has been get-
forty-five convicts from
the year, but the new reg-
give the county fifty or
more. ShcWfe^y^lie smaller counties
not Want iro rata share of
convicts Bibb in an applica
tion for more of will be
needed badly in road btM|gte*and in
making other improvement^rs!%U ■*.
John A. Betjeman of
retarv of the committee in
the arrangements for the southern
dust rial and commercial congress,
which meets in Washington, D. C., in
December, is in Columbus in the in
terest of the project. He has already
taken up the matter of Columbus’ rep
resentation with leading members of
the board of trade, and it is hoped
that interest in the congress will be
ai oused.
Ben L. Jones of Macon who receiv
ed word that he is the heir of a for
tune amounting to $200,000 from his
uncle, Nat Jones, in Arkansas, has
left for the west to look after his in
terests in the estate. A letter was re
ceived at Macon stating that Nat
Jones, who was a brother of Ben L.
Jones,’ father, had died leaving the
vast fortune and that Mr. Jones of
Macon was the only heir.
The Munson Steamship line has
brought suit against the South Atlan
tic Car and Manufacturing company
of Waycross for $36,000, claiming this
amount for alleged loss in their prep
aration to handle a shipment of three
hundred cars from Savannah to Pana
ma. The car company had a contract
about two years ago with the United
States government for threje hundred
flat cars for use on the Panama rail
road, but owing to the destruction of
the Savannah plant by fire had to can
cel the contract. The steamship com
pany claims in its suit that they had
arranged to handle the cars from Sa
vannah to Colon, and want judgment
for not only $36,000, but interest
thereon for nearly two years. The
case will come up for trial before
Judge Emory Speer. Valdosta, at the
next term of United States court.
Macon hopes to secure the Wirz
monument to add to her present col
lection and if she is successful it will
be placed at the corner of Cotton ave
nue and the triangular block, near the
Commercial bank building. The selec
tion of the city in which the monu
ment is to be placed is in the
of the Daughters of the Confederacy,
and at the annual reunion of the or
ganization in Savannah, some city
will be picked out. Macon stands a
splendid chance of getting the monu
ment because of the splendid site that
can be used.
An election for municipal officers
for the town of Martin for the ensu
ing year was held resulting as fol
lows: L. V. Matherson, mayor; J. M.
Walters, T. J. Young, W. B. Mitchell.
G. U. Nelms, H. A. Rankin, council
men. There was quite an interesting
race for mayor between L. V. Mather
son and R. F. Garner, the only candi
dates for that office, resulting in a ma
fority of four for Matheson.
