Assistant Baggage Agent j. f. Ward of
the Savannah, Florida and Western rail

hands is now engaged in laying track a.
miles this side of Dawson, aud over a mile of
track is being put down per day The road
has been graded all the way to Albany, and
will be completed to that city by March 10.
w. D. Martin, formerly conductor on the
Savannah and Western division of the
Central, has been appointed to an important
position under Trainmaster Moore. Capt.

tions will be very rigid, aud meujwill not be
allowed to go out in charge of trains unless
they stand creditable examinations.
A report of the officers Of the Georgia,

nah and Western road, has IN his possession
what is supposed to be the first railroad
locomotive ever made. The locomotive
was manufactured in f lgland in 1925, and,
of course, is a very clumsy affair when
compared to the splendid specimens of
workmanship turned out from the machine
shops of the present day. Mr.. E,kman's
father won the locomotive at a ratiig many
years ago, and when mis- son became an en-
gineer presented it to him. Mr.. E;kman
values the Old locomotive very highly.

BISHOP wHITrAKER's FOE,

AsSassinaUe.

He Pleads Guilty to an Attempt to
Assassinate.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3l-David Alexan-
der, who tried TO assassinate Bishop Whit
taker on Sunday evening last, pleaded
guilty this morning before Judge Arnold.
DR.. Andrews. of the county prison, testified
that Alexander was sane on every other
subject except that of prohibition When
asked by the judge what he had to say,
Alexander rose, and addressing the court,
said: Railways thought that the church
was supposed to help and support poor
widows and orphans, and when man, a
minister of the church, openly denounces
prohibition, l, as christian, consider
it vile and base crime; but when man
ranks so high as bishop, l think he is
guilty of very vile crime, indeed, and a
hindrance to the church. instead of sup
port. They speak of the increase of the
good cause and the church, but when a
bishop is allowed to openly and publicly
denounce prohibition, think it shows a
great decrease"
Sentence was deferred.

NAVAL STORES.
Some Points About the Yield OF This
Year


Year.
VALDosTA, GA, Jan. 81, 1S90.-A gen.
eral impression prevails in naval stores
circles that, owing to the unusually warm
winter, there will be heavy production of
naval stores early in the season. Since
seeing from the newspapers that such is the
impression, | have interviewed quite num-
Der of representative naval stores pro
ducers, and their opinion. based upon
reasons that seem exceedingly plausible,
if not convincing, is that the production
will not be as great early in the season as if
the winter had been of usual severity and
seasOnable. Pine trees, like corn and cotton,
to yield well must have rain in proper
quantities. 1t is we'll known that the
drought this winter has been unprecedent-
eddy long. As a matter Of fact, the boxes
that were cut early in the season, before
the drought had fairly set in, ran very
freely, considering the time of year. But
since it has been so very dry-and the most
of the boxes have been cut since then-the
trees have ceased to run any more than they
do when tapped in the coolest winter.
Another serious drawback to the naval
stores interest is the bugs. The winter has
not been cold enough to prevent them at
lacking the trees as soon as tapped.
What will be the damage to the naval
stores producers resulting from the inroads
of this pest can at this time be only mat
ter of conjecture. Many are apprehensive
that the damage will be great unless there
is cold weather this winter. w. s. W.

CAPITAL OF THE STATE.
PARDON GRANTED A NEGRO CON-
VICTRD OF MANsLAUGHTER.

at Least Seven Counties Whose Taxes
Do Not Equal What They Draw
from the State Treasury Decisions
Handed Down by the supreme G curt.
ATLANTA, GA, Jan. 3l-WiIlson Smith
of Hancock county, a negro convict SEN
fenced IN 1854 to serve ten years for man
slaughter, has been pardoned- 1t is
claimed that the homicide for which Smith
was sent to the penitentiary was accidental.
He threw pick handle at another negro in
a sudden lit Of passion, inflicting a mortal
injury.
COUNTIES THAT ARE AN EXPENSE.
One of the officials at the capitol this
morning called attention to the fact that
several of the Georgia counties pay not a
cent INTO the treasury of the state, but on
the contrary are a constant expense 70
the commonwealth. The taxes col
Iected in these counties are in
some cases insufficient to cover
their pro rata of the school fund, and money
has TO be sent by the state to make Up the
deficiency. For instance, in Gllmer this year,
only 50, 200 over and above the cost Of COZ
lection was received from the taxpayers,
while The county's share of the school funds
exceeded that amount by Sl1L Thirty
seven disabled confederates residing there
draw 1880, and it IS estimated that,
counting the pay of Its legislators. Gilmer
county takes from the Golfers Of the state
about s., 332 annually. In at least half
dozen other counties the tax collections fall
short OF local expenses, and must be supple
mented every year from the common
streasury.

thousands OF People awaiting the
Opening OF the Sioux Reservation.
FORT Pierre. S. d., Jan. 3l.-Fort
Pierre is somewhat excitedly awaiting the
proclamation opening the reservation.
Large companies Of boomers have organ
lied across the river, preparatory to making
a grand rush when the time comes. Prepar-
atoms have b en- made for the immediate
organization Of several counties. even going
so far as u determine on their officers,
and. owing to q fact that Their.

ties viii be favored with two sets
of officers. Every conceivable scheme is
being resorted 10 by the Pierre boomers to
capture the town site Of Fort Pierre, and
the attempt on their part to have the squat
tiers elected from the mile square has
proved futile. Most of the reservation
boomers are parties who have been ut
Pierre for some time, and are principally
township boomers and county office
seekers.
4 CHANCE FOR ALL.
Since the debate of opening the reserwa-
ton viii probably be set ahead, eastern i'm
migrants will have an equal shoa with the
boomers here. The officers in charge Of tue
company have received orders not to modest
the sQuatters on tho "miie square, but to
prevent any further settlement thereon
from outside parties. TIE following is a
copy of the orders published:
To Whom it Mag Concern:
The instructions Of the war department in re-
gard to Intrusion on the Sioux reservation before
it IS declared open to settlement by competent
authority are as follows: The word INTRUDER
used III said instructions refers par
ueular to persons who enter upon

purpose Of occupying ground or making a
claim to the same. The mere fact OF enter

for, but the military authorities will
keep themselves informed as to persons
who may enter the reservation SO that, while
no one may unnecessarily be interfere1 with.

so called, is an Indian reservation, and awaits
final determination under the recent act of
congress, and the report Of the commission
which visited the Sioux last summer.

Brazil Enforcing Naturalization.

The Rio NelrS says: 1.-The new natural
ization law of Jan. Is declares all foreign
ers to be Brazilian citizens who were in the
country on Nov. Is, and henceforth, after
a residence Of two years, except those who
make formal declaration to the contrary
to the secretaries of the municipalities in
which they reside This makes naturaliza-
ton tacit and obligatory in case the for
eigner does not go to the trouble and expense
of registering his refusal to accept Brazilian
citizenship. AS we have so often
repeated in these columns, this measure is
extremely unwise and arbitrary, and may
lead to unpleasant complications. No one
can be compelled to surrender his nation
ality against his will, and no government,
particularly those of the military nations
of Europe, will consent to have its subjects
forced into q foreign allegiance. If, how
euer, the provisional governments wish to
have record of those who refuse to accept
Brazilian citizenship, then let the books be
got ready at o zee. The record will be on
discredit to the foreigner"
