TRENTON, GA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1908. U. D. C. ENTER PROTEST Georgia Daughters Object to Removal of Wirz Monument. CALL FOB It is Claimed That Only a Few Were in Attendance When Monument Was Tendared to Richmond, Virginia. Atlanta, Ga. —The subject of the Wirz monument is again before the public, brought about by the action of a number of prominent Georgia women, who have signed a petition sent to the chapter presidents of the United Daughters of the Confederacy of Georgia, asking that a call be made for a convention of daughters to re oonsider the action of the recent state convention, United Daughters of the Confederacy, in Savannah, in tender ing the monument to the city of Rich mond. The new turn of affairs in the mat ter Of the monument comes as a sen sation to the patriotic women of the state, though there has been openly expressed dissatisfaction on the part of many as to the' recent official ac tion taken upon the question where the monument should finally he lo cated. The petitioners who ask that the ac tion of the state convention be recon sidered are: Mrs. Helen Plane, hon orary president Georgia United Daughters of the Confederacy; Mrs. J. K. Ottley, chairman from Georgia Shiloh monument; Mrs. R. E. Park, Mrs. J. C. Olmstead, Atlanta; Mrs. A. B. Hull, chairman committee on ar rangements Wirz monument, Savan nah; Mrs. James Jackson, Atlanta; Mrs. Lee Trammell, state registrar, Madison; Mrs. A. O. Harper, Elber ton; Mrs, R. L. Nisbet, first vice pres ident Georgia division, Marietta; Mrs. P. H. Lovejoy, Hawkinsville; Mrs. P. H. Godrey, auditor Georgia division, Covington; Miss M. B. Sheibley, re cording secretary, Rome; Miss Ida Holt, Macon; Mrs. T. O. Chestney, Macon; Mrs. W. D. Lamar, first vice president, Macon;. They state that at the recent ses sion of the Georgia division, United Daughters of the Confederacy, in its closing hours, when the representa tion was greatly depleted, a resolution to offer to the city of Richmond the monument to Captain Wirz, which all the women of Georgia had helped to build, was carried by a majority of only two of the voting power present. So much dissatisfaction is expressed at this result throughout the state and by interested delegates from the various states at the general conven tion in Atlanta, that they feel impell ed to protest and ask that they be joined In a call for reconsideration of the question, which can only Undone by a request from two-thirds of the chapters in the state. WATER VERY SCARCE. Drought in South Georgia Causes Much Suffering. Moultrie, Ga. —It has been an ex ceedingly dry fall in this section, and many have suffered inconvenience for some time, but recently the water problem has been very expensive for many, and the drought is every day resulting in destructive fires over the county. Not in years have there been so many reports of fields and fencing burning* trees burning down and for ests being damaged by fire. Turpen tine and lumbermen are heavy losers from fire, and they are also troubled considerably to get water to run their stills and mills. Ginning plants in some sections have had to shut down. A few farmers are unable to get enough water from their wells for their stock, and hogs that are being fattened have done poorly as a re sult of the scarcity of water. TO EXHIBIT APPLES. Cornelia Grower Sends Exhibit to Spo kane National Apple Show. Cornelia, Ga. —One of the finest shipments of apples ever sent out of Georgia was forwarded to the Na tional Apple Show at Spokane, Wash., by Colonel John P. Fort. The shipment will be entered in the contest for the SIOO prize offered for the “best new apple.” The expense of getting this fruit to Spokane and hav ing it properly exhibited will amount to nearly that sum, but Colonel Fort states that he did not enter his ap ples in the show purely in the hope of securing the prize, but to ad\er tise to the country what Georgia can do in the way of apple raising. If the apples safely reach their des tination they will stand a good chance of winning, which will do moie to ward attracting attention to this sec tion, where are grown “big red ap ples,” than any other kind of adver tising. DEMAND FOR BETTER SERVICE. 8 A. L. Agrees to Alter Schedule to Suit Patrons. Atlanta, Ga.-Before Chairman Mc- Lendon of the railroad commission of Georgia, the citiztns of binder and intermediate stations along the Sea board Air Line railroad appear and protest a f inst ro the l/en ordered by not 8 with the demanus 0t At 3 th P e a close S 'ot the bearing the road r,rs.s=S rh S e te s a e d rv°ce fl wm be 'improved.

THRODGHOUT THE STATE About five hundred and fifty gallons of moonshine whiskey was sold in Atlanta, the government being the seller, and the buyers being members of a crowd of nearly two thousand persons, attracted by the unusual spectacle cf a liquor sale in a “dry” community. The whiskey had been seized at illegal stills in Georgia foot hills. Bidders paid from $2.25 per gallon, to $3.35, and on one lot, the bidding reached $3.70. This bid, how ever, was rejected when it was found that the bidder’s thirst was bigger than his pocketbook, and that instead of desiring an entire keg, he wished only to “pay at the rate of $3.70 per gallon,” for enough to make a few drinks. Honorable Lawton B. Evans, super intendent of education in Richmond county, has Just returned from a visit to all the public schools in that coun ty, and makes the statement that in point of enrollment, interest and all round progress, educational institu tions under the jurisdiction of the board are enjoying a more prosperous season than ever before. At a num ber of schools in the rural districts, wagons are operated daily, transport ing children to and from home, which system has proved markedly benefi cial since it was adopted about six months ago. An interesting point of law will be settled at the approaching term o£ Floyd city court, when John Brown, arrested for larceny af'teer trust, is tried at Rome. The charge against Brown is made by G. M. Henderson, a carpenter, who gave Brown a dollar to get him a quart of whiskey. Brown told Henderson to wait, then disap peared and the carpenter waited for several hours in the rain, but he did not return. Henderson returned to his home, disguised himself in other clothing and loitered around the spot where he had been approached by Brown. The man approached and ask ed if he would not like to have a nice quart of whiskey for a dollar. Hender son’s answer was a blow that felled him and a call for the police. Chairman S. G. cLendon of the rail road commission has signed an order authorizinng the Elberton Southern Railway company to issue capital stock in the sum of $200,000 and bonds amounting to $250,000. The road was formerly known as the Elberton Air Line and was purchased receently er’s sale. The road will be improved and put in a first class condition. A charter has been granted to the American Banking and Trust com pany of Rome, Ga., a corporation cap italized at $500,000. The incorpora tors are G. D. Pollock, T. J. Simp son, J. L. Bass, C. R. Porter, G. B. Holder, J. W. Curry and R> W. Graves, all of Rome, Ga. The incor porators announce that over $26,000, the amount prescribed by law, has al ready been paid in. When President-elect William H. Taft made his notable address in New York city at the banquet of the North Carolina society, the walls all about him were festooned with cotton stalks grown within a few miles of Atlanta. The banquet was a typically southern affair, and Mr. Taft spoke principally on conditions in the~south. It was ap propriate therefore that cotton should be the principal decoration. The rich ly boiled stalks were shipped from Atlanta at the request of the Hotel Astor management. They were those used at the Cobb county exhibit at the state fair last fall. The shipment weighed two hundred pounds. The United States senate confirmed the nomination of Helen D. Long street, widow of the confederate gen eral, as postmaster at Gainesville, Ga. The action of the senate in confirming the nomination on the day it was re ceived was a special compliment to Mrs. Longstreet. Absentees from drill on the night of state and United States inspection of the national guard of Georgia, next year, will be punished by a fine of SIO.OO.

Palmer, United States army, retired, who has been assigned to the state by the United States w r ar department, who will represent both the state and Uncle Sam on these tours. The inspection is to be both day and night, the day inspection be ing for the tents, equipment and the like. Major A. J. Twiggs, a prominent en gineer and contractor of Augusta, who is superintending for McKenzie Broth ers the construction of piers upon which will be erected the new Center street bridge in that city has ordered a diver’s suit, to be used in inspect ing submarine work on the founda tions. Expert divers charge so much fqjA their services that Major Twiggs !m upon the idea of doing their work himself, thereby saving the city con siderable money. A. C.
