to Get 'C-oal Cars to Mines.
Chicago, Jap, 12. —The manage
ment of the HaiTlman line Is paying
$32,500 freights op cars in order to
get them from th<k;i?flnt into the coal
fields of Illinois. whYnMhey can be
loaded with coal for fflßvest to re
lieve the shortage In Kansas and Ne
braska.
This extreme and unusual method
was adopted by the officials bore af
ter a wire consultation with R. H.
Harriman
Added to the loss in paying freight
on curs, the Harriman system will
lose at least $5,000 revenue and proh
ably three times that amount which
they would have obtained had they
permitted their cara to be loaded in
the east with merchandise or coal for
the territory about Chicago.
The question arose of how to get
tne coal to the mines without having
some road steal them for temporary
use on route. The management final
ly decided to snip them as freight

each car

was third vice president of the Geor

have to name his successor. The

j The official call is as follows:
"Matters oi gravest importance are
confronting Georgians this year.
Never, perhaps, in the history of this
state have Christians and home lov
ers and patriots been called to do a
more valuable service to the common
wealth than now.
"There are one hundred and
twenty dry counties In Georgia and
twenty-six wet counties, aud every
dry county In this state is a common
dumping ground for the heartless wet
counties. And vain are the protests
and pitiable are the cries for mercy,
but the Jug train runs right along,
and evory year the people of our be
loved state, from the mountains to
the seaboard, aro being debauched by
these few wet counties. The time
has come to call a halt. The people
have been outraged sinned
against enough. Relief must come.
An antl-Jug bill was pending before
tbo last, suasion of the legislature,
and will doubtless come up early Id
the coming session next summer. We
have most hoarty assurances that
this 'till will pass. When this great
day comes there will certainly be re
joicing In one hundred and twenty
dry counties In the state. But we arc
contemplating a greater victory thar
that. Wo mean. God helping- us, to
securo statewide prohibition. Wo
easily have a majority for prohibition
In the house and a good chance f
victory in the senate.
"Nov/, that we may sit in counsel
together and calmly and wisely delib

and deliberate manner in unearthing
