MANY NEW RAILROADS
Great Activity in Railway jCon
s .ruction Throughout Georgia.
NEW ROAD TO FLORIDA
Attuy to Secure Two Hew Railroad*---Work
Will bo Resumed ou the S., A. and H.
Road—Dalton After Railroad.
Albany, Ga —There are very bright
Prospects for Albany’s getting two
new railroads before tho year Is gone.
There appears not to be the slightest
doubt that the Georgia Southwestern
and Gulf will be built from this city
to St. Andrews Bay, Fla.
The other road which now seems
to have such good proscpects is the
Albany, Ashburn and Atlantic. Much
Of the routo which the proposed line
would cover has already been grad¬
ed, much of it for use for by lumber
roads, and the construction work can,
therefore, be done at comparatively
small expense.
The. part of the road already built,
and now nearly to Ashburn from the
east. Is known as the Fitzgerald, Ocil
la and Broxton.
Fitzgerald, Ga—Temporary organi¬
sation of the Jacksonville and Atlan¬
ta Short Line Railway Company was
perfected here.
Committees from various points be¬
tween Jacksonville, Fla., and Fort Val¬
ley, Ga., met here for the purpose of
discussing the matter of constructing
a high-speed trunk line steam rail¬
way through one of the best unde¬
veloped territories in South Georgia
and Florida and the yellow pine belt
The owners of the short lines of rail¬
road along the route proposed were
present, the manifesting their interest in
organizatioa of the company
which is supposed to absorb the aev
eral Interests in building the short¬
est possible line between Atlanta and
Jacksonville, about 40 miles shorter
than either of the present routes.
It Is assured that the rights of
way and 25 per cent of the capita)
stock will be obtained and raised,
which practically guarantees that the
line will be built.
Fitzgerald, Gn—The Fitzgerald and
Ocilla Electric Railway broke dirt,
and will rush the road to completion
with a large force of men. A boat
load of rails arrived in Savannah for
the road and another load is on the
way. bought A large number of ties were
in the city for immediate de¬
livery. It looks now as though the
long delayed road would be built In a
short time.
Gainesville, Ga—Renewed Interest
In Gainesville is manifested in the
proposed Northern Savannah, Augusta and
Railway by a recent visit
of parties to this section who are
interested in the project.
It now looks like the people be¬
hind the proposed road mean to get
busy all along the line and push the
extension from Garfield on to Gaines
Vine and through to Chattanooga.
Eighty miles of this road have been
built already, over which trains are
now operated. Work was suspended
on the road by reason of the panic
of 1907, but it now looks as if it is
to be resumed and the road built.
Dalton, Ga, — Dalton citizens are
talking ot organizing to make a very
strong pull to get the Rome and
Northern Railroad, which is survey¬
ed, to come through the county on
the western side from Gore to Tun¬
nel Hill The survey Is several miles
off the line from Dalton and the citi¬
zens here think it would be folly to
pass as important a shipping point
as Dalton, where the two trunk lines,
the Southern and Western and Atlan
tic meet, and it is likely that the
matter will be taken up with the of¬
ficials before the line is extended.
100,000 NOT REGISTERED.
Registration Will Probably Be the
Lightest in Years.
Atlanta, Ga.—Registration in 1908
and 1909 in 90 Georgia counties —
177,885.
Registration In same counties to
date for 1910—110,875.
Which means that there are In
these 90 counties approximately 67,
000 voters who participated In the
last state primary who will be dis¬
franchised this year unless they reg¬
ister before the 5th of April.
Assuming that the ratio of regis¬
tration in the other 56 counties of
the state is the same as in the 90
counties heard from, the total short¬
age in this year’s regitration, as com¬
pared with the two preceding years,
is 108,025.
There were in the neighborhood of
260,000 voters registered for the gu¬
bernatorial election in 1908, while the
indications are now that the figures
so far for the 1910 elections come
to only about 150,000.
In view of the figures received from
the counties so far heard from, it is
exceedingly doubtful if the total reg¬
istration when the books close on
April 5 will be much over the 200,
000 mark—unless between now and
that date unprecedented activity In
registering takes place.
Reports from some of the county
tax receivers indicate that strenuous
efforts are now being put forth to ac¬
quaint the voters with the absolute
necessity of registering at once, but
from the majority of the counties the
reports indicate no such activity. In
a few of the counties the tax collec¬
tors have appointed men in each mi¬
litia district, who are making a house
to house canvass to get the voters
to register, and in these counties the
vote will,probably be as large, if not
larger, than^ip* slwfore.

GEORGIA NEWS NOTES.
Bequlsitons for convicts have been
received at the office ot the prison
commission from all but twenty-nine
counties of the state. Among those
twenty-nine counties there is none
which worked convicts during the
paBt, and first, year of the new sys¬
tem, A11 of the counties that had
convicts on their roads last year
have ask' d again for their share of
the state’s felons, and many that did
not have them during 1909 have re¬
quested their apportionment this
year. The missing counties have till
April 1 to file their requisitions in
proper form with the prison commis¬
sion. Followinwg are the counties
that have not asked for their share,
with the number to which each is en¬
titled on the basis of its population:
Berrien, 11; Catoosa, 5; Chattahoo¬
chee, 5; Chattooga, 12; Dade, 4;
Dawson, 5; Fannin, 10; Gilmer, 9;
Glasscock, 4; Gordon, 13; Grady, 15;
Habersham, 9; Jeff Davis, 6; Liberty,
12; Lumpkin, 7; Marion, 9; McIn¬
tosh, 6; Murray, 8; Pierce, 7; Polk,
16; Rabun. 6; Talbot, 11; Taylor, 9;
Towns, 44; Union, 8; Walker, 14;
Wayne, 8; Whitp, 5; and Whitfield
IS. Total, 251 convicts. If any at
these are not asked for, they will re¬
main to increase the number appor¬
tioned to other counties. At present
the state has 1,975 convicts on hand,
if every county calls for Its Bhare,
a full number of 2,091 •will be needed
for distribution, Blnce fractional di¬
visions cannot be made.
The Central of Georgia railway an¬
nounced an increase of two and one
half cents an hour to blacksmiths.
This will not affect the boilermakers’
strike now on.
Georgia farmers are planting and
will raise bounty food crops this
year. This will be done, too, without
an increase in acreage. The high
prices of foodstuffs throughout the
country is regarded as an important
factor in bringing the farmers to the
realization that success does not
lie in one crop. The publicity given
to trust investigations, the meat and
other boycotts advertised broadside
have helped considerably in convinc¬
ing the farmer that he should raise
everything that he needs on his
farm and a little more to sell. Com¬
missioner of Agriculture Thomas
Hudson has returned from a series of
addresses with the Itinerant school
now visiting Georgia black counties in the
campaign against root and wilt.
“Georgia will have bigger food crops
this year without any increase in
acreage," said Commissioner Hudson,
“In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if
the acreage wouldn't be a little bit
under that of last year. The sale of
tags indicates that the acreage will
not be larger. The farmer this year
will spread his fertilizer on limited
acreage and make this limited acre¬
age produce. He has found out that
he can get the same returns with
less labor by working less acreage
intelligently. It is solving the labor
problem to a great extent and is
working out well. I have visited
some sixty-five counties recently and
found the same intention exists in
the minds of all the farmers with
whom 1 have talked."
Reports from the counties of the
state show that in none ot them does
the registration this year equal that
of last year or the year before. The
registration, th# books close April 5 un
der ne# law and i unless there is
a heavy registration in the five
weeks intervening between now and
that time, thousands throughout the
state will be disfranchised, as April
5 the registration books will not be
opened again during the year for any
election. The registration is about
40 per cent off from that of 1908.
Only a few of the counties, among
them Jasper and Jefferson, show a
present registration approximating
in any fair degree their full quota
of voters.
Milledgeville is to have a big corn
show next fall and prizes aggregat¬
ing several hundred dollars will be
awarded the growers of the best corn
in this section of the state.
Authoratitive announcement was
made in Macon that work will be
begun within two months on the Ma
con-Atlanta-Albany Interurban Trol¬
ley line, a charter for which was
granted several months ago. Macon
capitalists own a majority of the
stock. The material, it is stated,
has been purchased for the construc¬
tion of the line from Macon to At¬
lanta, a distance of eighty-seven
miles. The line will be completed
within twelve months. The line to
Albany from Macon will be one hum*,
dred miles in length. The road will
touch the larger towns between the
three places and will do a general
passenger, freight and express busi¬
ness.
The Upson county corn ciub is
growing in enthusiasm and numbers.
At a meeting held at Thomaston
court house Bixteen members were
added to the roll, making a total of
about forty that have joined the
movement. The club Is meeing with
every encouragement that could be
asked for, both from the farmers and
business men of Upson.
The shipment of fine milch cows
has grown to be an important indus¬
try in Butts and surrounding coun¬
ties. So less than twenty carloads
have been shipped to south Georgia
during the present season. Some of
the best milch cows in the state are
raised in Butts county. They sell on
an average of from 340 to $50 each.
Shipped to south Georgia they find a
ready sale. In addition to the milch
cows sold in Jackson this, season
twenty cars of horses and" mules at
an average price of 3200 each odCRF’" h ave.
been sold. Jackson and Butts
ly have become the-leading live stock
market of this section and dealers
sell here to the farmers of several
adja< counties.
News of a political nature which
will be of interest to the public at
large, and especially to the southern
section of the state, is a movement
to have presented to the next general
Assembly a bill to create a new judi¬
cial circuit to be composed of Baker
and Calhoun counties of the Albany
circuit, and Early and Miller coun¬
ties of the Pataula circuit.
The weekly reports of the different
railroads of the state as submitted
to the railroad commission show a
great improvement in the keeping
of the schedules.
One hundred thousand dollars
damage was done to the dam of the
Central Georgia Power company on
the Ocmulgee river eight miles from
Jackson during the recent rains there.
The entire coffer dam and trestle be¬
low and above the dam proper were
washed away This will necessitate
a delay of several weeks in the work
of the construction on the $3,000,000
dam
The interstate exposition that Co¬
lumbus is planning for next fall is
now in full swing and indications
point to the most successful enter¬
tainment of the character In the his¬
tory of the city.

Arctic Explorer Says He Can Not
Make Data Public.
STATEMENT TO CONGRESS
Naval Committee Declare They Will Not Make
Lieutenant Peary a Rear Admiral Unless
He Submits His Proofs.
Washington, D. C. — Commander
Peary has declined to submit to con¬
gress proofs of his discovery of the
North Pole. He sent in care of Rep¬
resentative Aleander of New York a
statement written in the third person
and addressed to the subcommittee
of the house committee on naval af¬
fairs, in which lie set forth his rea¬
sons for refusing to send his data to
the committee.
The statement follows: “Comman¬
der Peary and his friends say that
contracts signed months ago with his
publishers render it impossible to
make his records and scientific data
public now. It would not only sub¬
ject Peary to heavy damage—a loss
which he cannot meet, having just ex¬
tricated himself from debt Incurred
in connection with his various expe¬
ditions — but it would he breaking
faith with his publishers, which he
is unwilling to do under any circum¬
stances."
Representative Macon told the com¬
mittee that since he publicly declared
a few days ago that he would Insist
upon seeing Mr. Peary’s proofs and
was opposed to any “legislation in
the dark” on the subject, he had re¬
ceived letters containing three thou¬
sand signatures, endorsing his stand.
The committee has received a mass
of interesting communications on the
subject. One is from H. L. Hopkins,
secretary and treasurer of the Amer¬
ican Association of Masters, Mates
and Pilots, questioning reports of Mr.
Peary’s sounding taken in the vicin¬
ity of the North Pole.
“How did Peary, with one man,
pound in 1,500 fathoms of water?"
wrote Mr. Hopkins to the commit¬
tee.
WHY CHILDREN DESERT FARM
Greater Chances Are Offered for AM
Degrees of Culture.
Indianapolis, Ind.—The reason that
young men and women in the south
are flocking from the farms to the
cities is not that they disliko field
and stream, but that the cities offer
so much greater opportunities for all
degrees of culture.
This was the opinion expressed by
Samuel E. Weber, state inspector of
high schools of Louisiana, before the
department of superintendency of the
National Educational association. The
enormous hoard of potential wealth
in the thousands of acres of uncul¬
tivated land in the south Is to be
realized through extension of the ru¬
ral school system, Mr. Weber said.
He did not regard the establish¬
ment of state agricultural schools of
so much importance as the institution
of agricultural courses In the local
schools, where the children of the im¬
mediate plantations, while studying
scientific methods of developing the
land at their command, can at once
gain acquaintance with those arts of
conversation that Urighten life and
that» are "now eagerly sought in the
cities. Improved!®)! ^
of the rural schools,
Mr. Weber also believed, would
solve the problems of the idle negro
in the south.
TO FIGHT LABOR UNION.
Organization to Combat Political Ac¬
tivities of Federation of Labor.
Washington, D. C.—Leaders among
those in the American Federation of
Labor opposed to the federation’s par¬
ticipation in political affairs, as ex¬
emplified in the last congressional
elections, when the federation made
strenuous efforts to defeat certain
congressmen, among them Speaker
Cannon, organized here the National
Labor Alliance. The alliance is to
have the backing of the Knights of I
Labor in the labor world of the Amer¬
ican Federation of Labor, and others
hostile to the political policies of the
American Federation.
The National Labor Alliance plans
to embrace in its membership all in¬
dependent labor organizations in the
United States not affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor. Its
principal object is to actively fight
the federation wherever the latter or
ganization attempts to interfere in
political affairs, especially in congres
alonal elections.
The alliance plans to send speak¬
ers and money Into any congression¬
al district wherever the American
Federation of Labor is making a fight
against the re-election of representa¬
tives to the ne k congress.

Philadelphia, Pa .—It the computa¬
tion of the Philadelphia police depart¬
ment is corect—and the officials de¬
clare it to be based on a careful and
complete canvass of the city—less
than 20,000 workmen have respe.-ti¬
ed to the call for a general tie-up of
the city’s industries.
The leaders of the general strike
movement, however, declared ttfat at
least 125,000 were out in obedience
to the general strike call and that
they have assurances that 25,000 more
would join the ranks of the strikers.
New York City—In labor circles it
was reported that Samuel GomperS
of the American Federation' of Labor
is in Chicago to consult labor leaders
with the view of calling a strike of
carmen in Cleveland, Pittsburg, Oma¬
ha and San Francisco in sympathy
with the Philadelphia car strike.
The Philadelphia Traction Company
is said to be a large holder of secur¬
ities of traction companies in these
cities.
FARMERS RAISING HOGS.
Diversification is Meeting With Suc¬
cess Along Mississippi River.
New Orleans, La—That the appeal
for diversification in south farming is
meeting with success Is declared by
local exchanges and business organi¬
zations to be shown In the receipts of
live hogs at southern markets.
Somewhat of a novel sight has been
presented in this connection at New
Orleans during the last week, when
old-time river steamers, usually asso¬
ciated with the transportation of cot
to nexclusively, came down the river
from Iz>uislana and Mississippi points
loaded with fat, squealing porkers.
Steamboat loads of hogs were un¬
known before in New Orleans.
Simultaneous with this incident too
news was received that banks at Bat¬
on Itouge and other interior points art)
offering seed corn free to farmers who
will substitute corn for cotton on any
part or all of their land. Prizes have
also been offered in several parishes
of Louisiana to the farmer who raises
the finest hog during the year.
THOMAS C. PLATT DEAD.
Former Senator from New York Has
Passed Away.
New York City. — Thomas Collier
Platt, formerly United States senator
from New York and for many years
a national figure in republican poli¬
tics, died in the apartment of Mr. and
Mrs. Gustav Abele, on West Eleventh
street, from whom he had rented
three rooms for the last four years.
Mrs. Abele had been his nurse.
Frank Platt stated that he thought
it doubtful if his father’s estate would
• mount to more than $200,000.
Julesburg, Colo.—“Thank God," when was
the ejaculation of Mae Wood,
told of the death of former Senator
Thomac C. Platt.
“I shall continue my fight now as
the widow of Senator Platt," she said,
“and I shall fight to the end.”
For two years Miss Wood has lived,
almost alone, on her ranch, that over¬
looks the Platte river.
HYPNOTIZED AND ROBBED.
Man Claims to Have Given Washing¬
ton Hypnotist $35,000.
Washington, D. C—With a story of
having been hypnotized and robbed of
$35,000, a man who gave his name
to the police as D. .1. Telfair and said
he was manager of a dairy company
of Philadelphia, came to his senses
in the emergency hospital.
Telfair told the police he arrived

$35,000 over to the hypnotist, but af¬
ter that bis memory is a blank.
