PRESERVES FOR
GAME IS ORGED
STATE GAME AND FISH COMMIS¬
SIONER MADE RECOMMENDA¬
TION IN HIS REPORT
BRIEF ITEMSJfJMPORTAHCE
Condensed Statement Of Interesting
Events And Happening Through,
out The State
Atlanta. — Establishment by the
state of game preserves in North and
South Georgia and of fish hatcheries
to further the propagation and preser¬
vation of game and fish in Georgia, is
recommended in the annual report of
Sam J. Slate, state game and fish
commissioner. Mr. Slate points out
that while the last year has shown a
steady and noticeable increase in
game, and that conditions affecting
both game and fish are more encourag¬
ing than in years, the time has come
when the state should plan more for
the future by protecting the present
supply and providing means by which
it may he increased. “A stronger
sentiment is growing each day for
the protection and preservation of the
game and fish in Georgia,” said Mr.
Slate. We have a great deal of
game. We have a great deal of coast
territory for salt, water fishing and
some of the finest fresh water streams
in the Sounth. We are wonderfully
rich in natural resources with which
to carry out work of this character.
“Game preserves should be establish¬
ed both in North and South Georgia,
in the light of the experience of oth¬
er states, game sanctuaries, in which
the land owner agrees under contract
with the state to furnish suitable conc¬
erts for game and to prevent all hunt¬
ing upon these lands, form an ideal
spot for the breeding of game, and
for tlte turning loose of certain species
of game.
Pledge U. 8. Aid To State Roads
Atlanta.—Figures announced from
Washington show that during the
month of May general aid was
pledged by the department of ag¬
riculture to assist the building
of more than 140 miles of im¬
proved roads and bridges in the
state of Georgia. Three of the 19
Georgia projects included in the list
have received the final O. K. of David
F. Houston, secretary of agriculture.
The remaining 16 have been tentative¬
ly approved by the department, and
are still subject to a possible though
improbable veto at the hands of the
department. The three projects which
have been finally approved are: The
Dixie highway, western branch, ex¬
tending from Rome, in Floyd county,
to Atlanta. This road begins at Lin
dale station and ends at Seney, at the
Poik county line, a distance of 7,444
miles. It will be improved at an esti¬
mated cost of $28,524,39, of which $14,
000 will be federal aid. The Colum
bus-Hamilton-Atlanta road, in Harris
county, from the Muscogee county
line to Chlpley. This road is 10.95
miles in length, and will be improved
at a cost of $107,725.98, of which $53,-
500 will be federal aid. The canton
and Marietta road, Cherokee county,
being the Cobb county line and Eto¬
wah river bridge and Canton, is 13.
6504 miles in length. It will be im¬
proved at an estimated cost of $95,-
555.86, of which amount $47,700 will
be federal aid.
Melon Crop Damaged In Colquitt
Mouitrle.—According to R. S. Rod
denberry, one of the largest watermel
on buyers in tills section, the excessive
rains of the past few weeks have
damaged the melon crop in this sec¬
tion fully 25 per cent and will throw
it about two weeks late. It is his
Idea, however, that the price will be
higher than it has ever been before,
and that the growers will realize a
substantial profit. Reports reaching
his office declare that Florida's melon
crop has also been damaged by wet
weather and that the crop is so short
that the bulk of it will have been
marketed by the time Georgia melons
are put on the market.
State Hotel Men End Meet
Atlanta.—A discussion of better
roads for Georgia and the revelation
that hotel equipment furnished by At¬
lanta supply houses is equal to any in
the country, featured the third day of
the annual convention of the Geor¬
gia Hotel Men's association. The last
day was brought to a close by an in¬
spection tour of Atlanta hotel equip¬
ment supply houses and an automobile
tour of the city, which followed the
most spirited business session of the
convention.
To Fight Foreign Cotton 6bfitrok
Jefferson.—With twelve counties re¬
presented in convention here follow¬
ing an address by Commissioner of
Agriculture J. J. Brown, a director of
the American Cotton association, re¬
cently organized in New' Orleans, pre¬
liminary steps were taken toward the
organization of the Georgia division
of that association by the appointment
of T. S. Johnson, well-known cotton
and treasurer.

TERMS OF PEACE
ARE MADE PUBLIC
BORAH PRESENTS DRAFT OF THE
TREATY AND 47 SENATORS
VOTE TO PUBLISH
PACT READ INTO RECORD
Twenty-Four Senators, Practically Al!
Democrats, Voted Against
Printing Treaty
Washington.—Out of a whirlwind of
developments, the senate got a copy
of the peace treaty and. after a five
hour fight, ordered it printed in the
public record by a vote of 47 to 24.
At the same time it got under way
the investigation of how copies have
reached private hands in New York,
by summoning to testify a half dozen
of the country’s leading financiers.
The copy which went into the rec¬
ord was brought to this country by a
newspaper man, and was presented by
Senator Borah (Rep.) of Idaho, just
after the reading of a cablegram from
President Wilson, saying he could not.
without breaking faith, send to the
senate the text of the treaty.
A roii call on printing the treaty
was forced by Senator Thomas, Dem
qcrat, of Colorado, who refused uuan
imous consent for its publication.
On Senator Borah’s motion to pub
iish the treaty, most of the Republi¬
cans and several Democrats voted for
publication. All of the twenty-four
negative votes except one, that
Senator McCumber, Republican, of
North Dakota, were cast by Demo¬
crats.
Nine Democrats voted for the mo¬
tion to print the text. They were;
Ashurst, Beckham, Chamberlain, Cul
berson, Kendrick, Myers, Pomerene,
Reed and Walsh of Montana.
Many senators wanted to explain j
their votes on the propriety of print
ing the treaty in the record. Senator I
Underwood (Democrat) Alabama, de- j
dared there was no evidence that |
the copy presented was an official one '<
and said: “if it is not, and it goes
out to the country with the sanction
of the United States senate, it may j
cause great harm.”
Senators Hitchcock of Nebraska,
Williams of Mississippi and Swanson
of Virginia declared the printing of j
the document would be a mistake.
24 HOURS ABSENT

This Is Drastic Provision Of Re30lu- |

Washington.— During the absence j
of the president from the country for
a period exceeding 24 hours, the du- j
ties of the office would be performed i
by the vice president under provision j
of a joint resolution introduced by 1
Representative Walsh (Republican)
of Massachusetts.
“Any absence of the president from ;
the limits of the United States for a
period exceeding 24 hours,” the reso-! !
lution says, “is hereby declared to be
inability to discharge the powers and j
duties of said office, and such inability j
shull terminate upon the actual return
of the president to the seat of the ;
government of the United States." |
“During the period of said inability ;
the vice president shall act as presi-1
dent, with full power and authority
to discharge the duties of said office.'; j

Session Causes Mexican Dele¬
gates To Quit
Mexico City.—The Mexicon govern¬
ment has ordered the withdrawal of
the Mexican delegates from the Pan
American Commercial congress as a
protest against the speech recently
made before the congress by Speaker j
Giilett of the house of representatives, j
Washington.—The Mexican embas¬
sy. it is learned, received instructions
to withdraw the Mexican delegation j
at the Pan-American commercial con¬
ference because of the remarks made
regarding Mexico at the opening ses j
sion by Speaker Giilett.
Germany May Try Authors Of War
Berlin.—The constitutional conven
tion has completed consideration of a
bill creating a state court which would
ttv those accused of starting, lengthen
ing and losing the war. It will be pre
sented in the national assembly soon.
The measure provides for a commit¬
tee of fifteen members of the national
assembly to investigate the political!
and military leadership of the country \
prior to and during the war. Deliber-1
at ions of the court would be secret
ami there would be no appeal from ]
its verdict.
Cotton Embargo Asked 3y Greeks
Washington.—The Greek govern¬
ment has approached American repre j
sentatives to ask whether the United j
States government would entertain
any objections to an embargo on raw
cotton for a period not to exceed six -
months, this restriction on imports •
to apply to all countries. The cotton I
on hand in Greece represents three ;
months' supply and the Greek govern
meat does not wish new cotton to
come in and thereby break the
ket.

MOTORS INSTEAD OF DOGS
Trip Over the Cascades in a Gasoline
Sleigh Was a Distinct
Success.
A spectacular trial trip was recently
made across the Cascades in a motor
sleigh, and a number of photographs,
taken at various stages of the journey,
are reproduced in Popular Mechan¬
ics. The achievement of the motor
sleigh was almost as amazing as that
of the first army tank, conquering, as
It did, all kinds of obstacles. Skimming
the surface of snowfalls, old or new,
the strange little vehicle broke its way
through primeval passes with never a
stumble. The rescue of an automobile,
hopelessly stalled in the drifts of Sno
qualmie pass, was a mere incident in
its progress. Crossing a deep gully on
a pair of hemlock poles was but one of
the day’s adventures. The Intended
substitution of the motor sleigh for the
dog drawn sledges of Alaska’s snow¬
bound post trails means more to the
people of that great territory than may
be generally realized. Jack London and
others have limned the Malemute as a
romantic figure; but the followers of
the trail know well he is never that. It
is the elimination of much human hard¬
ship. as well as canine inefficiency, that
recommends the gasoline method.

Time's Changes.
“Times shore change," philosophi¬
cally said Gap Johnson of Rumpus
Ridge. "Just tuther day, as it were,
nobody thought anything in pertickler
if a feller took a demijohn to church
under the back seat of his wagon, and
after the sermon had grown sorter
tiresome winked a few of his friends
outside to help him lap it up and fool
around and swap horses and mebbey
fight a little in a general way.
“But now, by grit, if he even smells
of patent medicine on a week day he’s
got to produce the omenick and p’int
out tiie place whur it says he’s got the
deadly disease that he claims to have
taken the medicine for.”—Kansas City
Star.
Proud of His “Profession."
“Burglars who served In the army
are going back to their old trade,” said
a London police official the other day.
“These men deliberately eiect to live
by stealing because they find it adven¬
turous. It was with the same spirit
that they joined the army. At least
one convicted burglar won the Victoria
cross.” Confirmation of this charac¬
teristic is provided by a captain in a
famous fighting regiment, who declares
that one of the bravest men in his
company, a corporal with a D.C.M. and
other honors, declared himself a pro¬
fessional thief. “His one regret,” re¬
marked the officer, “was that the re¬
cruiting authorities would not let him
describe his occupation on his attesta¬
tion papers as ‘burglar.’ ”
