UNION-RECORDER. Milledgeville, Ga., Dkc. 17. 1901. STATE SANITARIUM. The Eeport of the Minority'is \ 'Withdrawn. The members, of the THE K. P. BAZAAR A SUCCESS Legislative Committee, which recently visited the Georgia State Sanitarium, to invests srate the charges brought ngainst the management of that institution by Dr. W. A. O’Daniel, who signed the mi nority report, sent a request to the Clerk’s desk last Friday, asking that their report be withdrawn. After giving the matter a more thorough study, they decided that they bad made a mistake in criticising the manage ment ot the Institution, and deter mined to withdraw their report. This action leaves only the report of the majority on the records ot the Legislature. In this report the man- aeeroent of Institution is praised, and highly commended, and those against whom charges were brought are ex* cnerated. _ .. . The Georgia State Sanitarium is second in size in the United States, and its affairs are economically admin istered It costs less than thirty cents per capita a day to maintain the in mates. Anyone who has never vis ited the Institution has no idea ot its mammoth proportions, nnd the care and pains taken by the authontes in looking after those under their protec. ,0 *Dr. Powell is a kind-hearted man and has the highest conception of the Tesponsibiities resting upon him, He will not tolerate in tbe least any mis treatment of uiose under his care. The people of Geeagia can rest as sured that Georgia’s greatest charity is well and economically managed, and that tba state’s unfortunates are well cared for. The Bazaar at the Knights o‘ Pythias Castle which closed Friday night proved a successful venture for that organization. More than five hundred dollars were cleared by the management and turned over to the Treasurer. The lively patronage of the people enabled the young ladies at the various booths to dispose of very nearly every article that was on sale at the Bazaar. Every night the halls were filled bv the city folks, who came in crowds to attend the Bazaar, and to purchase the wares of the fair. They lingered in the rooms and passed the evenings pleasantly in lively discussions of the topics of the day, and in pleasant chats with their friends whom they met there. This intermingling of the people made the Bazaar a social success as well as a financial success. Editorial QI!*pse» and ClippiaQf. ■"Charleston exposition is in full blast. It has been suggested that a hospital should be established in this city. It is a suggestion worth the considera ’.ion of the new city council. ~ Wind, flood and snow swept over the north and west from Montana to Texas, and from New York to the Rockies, last Saturday and Sunday The most enthusiastic and the feature in which all interest centered on Fri day evening, the last evening of the Bazaar, was the contest for an emblem watch fob, to be given by Mayor Horne to the most popular knight. The contest narrowed down early in the evening to Mr. S. W. Thornton and Mr. M, S, Bell. The friends of these gentlemen gave them strong sup port and the voting was extremely lively at ten cents a vote. The polls were closed promptly at ten o’clock. A count ot the ballots made Mr. Thorn ton a winner by a large majority in a vote of 2,017. Both these gentlemen are worthy and popular Knights every sense ot the word. In the other contests Miss Claudia Troutman received a handsome watch as the most popular Industrial girl,Miss Elizabeth Biyins received a diamond stick pin as the prettiest Industrial girl, and Miss Nettie Cone a cat gla*s bottle of perfume as the most popular young lady in the city. The Agricultural and Industrial edi tion of the Athens Banner was a splen did paper of 18 page (ull of interest- ins matter and handsomely illustrated. Another Member of Legislature Dead.

For seven weeks the court heard testimony, and for tully a month it deliberated upon that mass of evidence, finally reaching the conclusions announced to day. The result was a complete sur prise, and it is probable that no proph ecy has approached the truth. In stead of one report, there are two. They are signed by George Dewey, president, and Sam C. Lemly, as judge-advocate. This is a form said to he recognized in all courts of inquiry, the signatures of the other members not being necessary. But it isexplained tliat Admiral Dewey signed the second report, a minority re port, to express his qualification of or dissent from the views expressed by tbe court, coiopiising beside himself Ad mirals Benhatn and Ramsay in the first report’ It is said at the navy department that there will be on further proceed ings in this celebrated case on the de partment’s initative. Two members of the court, Benliam and Ramsay, who were unknown in the war, sustain the charges against ad miral Schley, while George Dew«y, president of the court, and the Spanish- American war hero, stands by him throughout, saying lie won the greatest naval battle in the history ot tbe world. Admiral Schley is being advised by Isadore Raynor to push the case in every way that appeal can be made, knowing that the sentiment of the peo ple of the United States is with him.
