Official Organ of Dade County. TRENTON, GA„ FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1908. NEW RAILROAD RULES Made by Commission are Now in Effect. TIME FORCHECkING BAGGAGE Twenty Four Hours Must be Allowed* No Loaded Shotguns to be Car ried on Trains. Atlanta, Ga. —The railroads in Georgia must allow twenty-four hours for checking baggage. This ruling ot the railroad commission went into ef fect December 3rd. Heretofore bag gage left for more than twelve hours has been subject to a demurrage charge of 25 cents a day. The rail road commission took up this matter several weeks ago, and its investiga tions led to an amendment to passen ger rule number 5 relating to the checking and handling of baggage. The public must, therefore, be given twenty-four hours before demurrage charges can be assessed. Anew rule has been adopted by the railroad commission which re quires all railroad companies to stop their passenger trains at stations with a view to easy egress and ingress for passengers. In most instances trains are stopped in a way to expedite the handling of baggage. The commis sion has decided that the comfort of passengers must be the first consider ation. No passenger will in future be al lowed to carry a loaded shotgun into a railway coach. Any person entering a coach with a gun, must breech it within view of the conductor and show LAST TBIP OF IMTION. The Pure Food Law Now in Effect for Fifteen Months. Atlanta, Ga. —Georgia’s pure food and pure drug inspectors are out on their final tour of the state for the year which comes to a close on De cember 31. They are endeavoring, if possible, to have the new year begin with only pure foods and feedstuffs and pure drugs on sale in Georgia. The pure food law has been in effect now fifteen months and has accom plished wonderful results. The pure drug law has been in effect only since summer of this year, but during that time much good has been accom plished. Pure Food Inspector P. A. Methvin is devoting his time now to the in spection of western feedstuffs, which are being shipped into this state. Un-, der a report of tho state chemist re cently issued, it shows that a major ity of these feedstuffs do not measure up to the standards required by tho Georgia law and as fast as foundJTey are seized and shipped out m the state. More and more the Georgia mer chants and planters are coming to re alize that the southern product, cotton seed meal, when mixed with cotton seed hulls, is not only cheaper but a better cattle feed than anything ship ped from the west. This is proven by statistics gathered by the agricul tural department in Atlanta, which shows a tremendous increase in the use of this feed in Georgia, especially since the pure food law went into ef fect. SEEK TO EXTEND NOTES. Plans Advanced to Aid the Holding of Cotton. Statesboro, Ga. —That the Bulloch countv branch of the Farmers’ Union is making a determined effort to as sist the farmers of this county cannot be disputed. Through a committee of the branch a meeting has been called for December 12 at the court house, whiqh, if the object of the meeting is carried, will mean much to the farm ers of this ‘county. The object of the meeting is to con sider the question of extending the ma turity of all notes and other obliga tions, and every man who has given a note or is now holding one, is request ed to be at the meeting. The commit tee thinks that toy later maturity cot ton will be kept from being forced upon the market too early, and thus unduly depressing the price. $15,000,000 MORTGAGE DEED. Will Take Douglas Officials a Week to Transcribe. Douglasville, Ga. A $15,000,000 mortgage deed is enough to create at tention in large money centers, but such a deed was filed in Douglas coun ty superior court here last week. The deed was made in favor of the Central Trust Company of New York fcy the Virginia Carolina Chemical Company for the purpose of refunding its outstanding indebtedness. A. copy of the mortgage is filed In every coun ty where there is a branch of the Vir ginia-Caroiina Chemical Company. FOREST FIReTiaTFLOYD. Many Acres of Timber Have Been Destroyed. Rome, Ga.—Forest fires in several districts of Floyd county have wrought great damage and destroyed thousands of dollars’ worth of property in the past few days. Acres of timber were consumed by the fires on Horseleg Mountain and the fires have not yet been subdued. Miles of fence have been destroyed by the fires, and the loss will fall heavily on the farmers. It is not known how the fires have ben started, but it is thought by many that the woods were set on fire pur posely, or by persons out hunting care lessly dropping matches in the dry leaves. The city bas been filled with smoke from the fires during the mornings recently. THROUGHOUT THE STATE. Qute a flurry of excitement was cre ater in Dalton when a plow which was being used in the excavation work on the proposed government building bit into soft dirt and unearthed several bones, supposed to be those of a hu man being. The dirt was quickly clear ed away and a United States army belt buckle was found surrounded by a large pile of other bones. This seemed proof conclusive that the bones were those of a union soldier killed during the civil war and buried here. The grave was fully five feet below the surface, and quantities of lime surrounded the bones. Several doctors were attracted to the scene and, on examining the bones, com pletely wrecked the various theories formed by the onlookers, for they gave out the information that the bones were those of a cow. Governor Smith has offered a re ward of S2OO for the apprehension and conviction of any of the persons who recently wrote threatening letters to members of the Mormon congregation at Montreal, in DeKalb county, after dynamiting the church at that place. The reward was offered as the result 6t a call upon the governor from Fielding Payton, Melvin Payton and Jim Bankston, who told of receiving numerous threatening letters. Governor Smith has sent to the prison commission correspondence bearing upon the misconduct of Su perintendent A. B. Coombs, of the state prison farm at Milledgeville. The latter was arrested and convict ed for being drunk and disorderly on October 31 at the Macon fair grounds. The correspondence submitted con sists of a letter from Governor Smith to Mayor A. L. Miller of Macon asking about the reported ificident; the reply of Mayor Miller and a state ment of the facts in the case from G. S. Westcott, chief of police of Macon, to which is attached a copy of the po lice record. Chief Westbrook states that Superintendent Coombs pleaded guilty, stating that he had drank near beer and some whiskey, and his con dition was due to this fact. He was fined sls. The only member of the prison commission in Atlanta is Gen eral Clement A. Evans. When the commission meets the matter will be brought to its attention by the govern-* or and will be investigated. In regard to recent discussions in various papers anent the state’s finan cial condition, present and prospec tive, a statement was. given out at the office of Captain R. E, Park, state teraswer, in which he says: “For .nine years he has been watching care fully the income and the outgo of the treasury in Georgia, and at this time there is only $66,216.34, $50,000.00 of which is borrowed money, leaving really in the treasury, as the result of taxes and other sources of income, only $16,216.34, with several warrants due before the close of the month. He says that in December the largest part of the income of the state should come into the treasury, and that he can readily meet the $232,000.00 due to the pensioners on fourth quarter before the holidays, that he has paid only thirty-five per cent due to thw teachers of the state for their year’s hard work, and that they will be due from the incoming taxes 65 per cent, or $1,330,000.00, and the pensioners will be due in round numbers, in one payment, instead of in four payments, as in last year, about $900,000.00. Inman & Company of Augusta, cot ton factors, were awarded in Musco gee superior court at Columbus a ver dict in the sum of $64,568.71 against the Central of Georgia railway, on a suit for alleged damages to cotton burned in the Columbus yards of the defendant company. Suit was brought for $160,000. The case continued for a week and a brilliant array of coun sel put a hard legal battle. It was al leged in the complaint that the cot ton was destroyed while in the hands of the carrier. Passenger trains in this state must be brought to a stop as near as pos sible to waiting rooms or stations as will be most convenient for passen gers, according to a ruling of the rail read commission. The commission’s order follows: “All trains operated in this state all sta tions where stop, either upon schedule, be brought to a standstill with such re lation to the waiting room of the sta tion building, or other passenger fa cilities at said station, as will render egress from and ingress to said trains most practicable and convenient for the passengers, without reference to the convenient, handling of baggage or other freight.” The Georgia p'ruit exchange, an or ganization of the peach growers of Georgia, which is now being perfect ed, has secured pledges covering two thousand five hundred cars, or approx imaately half of the entire state’s yield of peaches, which will be shipp ed through the exchange on the co operative plan. Subscriptions to stock in the exchange now exceeds thirty thousand dollars. The plan of the ex change, as outlined in its charter, is to prevent glutting the markets, which resulted last season in poor prices for the growers. The exchange proposes to act as the growers’ agent, and to have such general su pervision of shipments as to direct them to the best advantage. The ex change will not be run for financial profit, but will be a co-operative or ganization, solely for the benefit of the growers. Beer containing as much as 4 per cent cf alcohol, is intoxicating, under the meaning of the state prohibition law. says the state court of appeals in a decision handed down at Atlanta, in the of Cornelius O’Connell, ap pealed Macon.

The woman who is going away for a short time in the summer, or who is not having the laundry done in. the house, should be careful that her flatirons are not allowed to rust. When she needs them she may not realize how rusty they are until she finds out thatjthey do not keep enough heat in but a few seconds’ w r ork. They will be practically useless for a quick day’s work unless the entire surface is again carefully worked up to a smooth polish. The damp weather of the end of the summer is quite apt to rust any metal that is left unprotected. Irons should bo well wrapped in newspa per and then put away in a dry spot.—lndianapolis News.
