Including the generators and all connections. ANNOUNCEMENTS. “I believe that, as the will of the people, expressed at the ballot box, must 1» obeyed, so the will of the people, determined under oath in the jury box, must be protected.”— Governor Joseph M. Brown. In refusing to extend clemency to J. B. Kellogg, a Cherokee county negro, sentenced to be hanged at Canton next Friday for the murder of J. C. Landers, a whiteman, Gov ernor Joseph M. Brown makes • use of the foregoing and other strong expressions, showing that only in the enforcement of the law and the infliction of prescribed punishment, can society find its adequate pro tection. Why Strike? The Central Labor Union of Philadelphia, representing some seventy-five thousand working men, is seeking to organize a plan for a general strike throughout the country by all wage workers for a period of two weeks, begiuniug on the d»v when Qompers and his as sociates enter upon their sentence of imprisonment for contempt of the United States court in the Dis trict of Columbia. Why should there be any such strike? Why should business throughout the country be para lyzed for a fortnight, and why should all the wage-workers of the country forego their wages for that length of time 1 Is it in order to manifest disapprobation of and resentment at the decree of th» courts of the land? Is it to say that the workingman thus declares his hostility to law? It seems to us that the working man’s own personal interest, and the interest of his wife and chil dren, should be considered. If it is desired to disapprove of the courts, it is easy to do so by reso lutions, which may .he made os strong as desired, and yet leave the workman free the morning after to resume his daily toil and reap his compensation therefor. Why throw away his bread and meat, and raiment, and shelter, and com fort» REDUCED RATES TO MANY PLACES VIA Southern Railway Rates named below are from At lanta ; proportionately low rates from other points.

The North Georgia Conference To four hundred or more minis ters who are today in attendance upon the annual session of the North Georgia Methodist confer- nee The Georgian extends sincere and cordial greetings. In an age of restless doubt Meth odism has stood an unshaken Rock of Gibraltar. To the overtures of worldliness t has refused to concede ono jot or title. With trumpet tones it has borne testimony to the divinity of Christ and to the inspiration of holy writ. The so-called "Higher Criti cism” has found a few advocates among the followers of John Wes ley and Francis Asbury and George F. Pierce. With apostolic zeal the Method ists have kindled the fires of evan gelism. And the missionary spirit of the times is due ill no small measure to the splendid impulse which has come from this camp of Christ. The great educational movement of the day discloses the Methodists in the front ranks. Nor in anything which makes for progress within ,the limits of ortho dox belief can it be said that this apostolic band is laggard. For reasons like these The Geor gian welcomes the visiting Meth odist inisters to Atlanta and con gratulate the community. whose privilege and pleasure it is to en tertain them.—Atlanta Georgian.
