COLLECTION LAW.
TO THE MERCHANTS OF THE STATE
OF GEORGIA.

Has not the time fully come when the
Merchants of our State should take some
steps by which they can be protected from
the dishonesty of large portion of our
citizens, who support themselves and
families by obtaining merchandise from us
as merchants, never intending to pay for
them, or refusing to do so upon the slight
est pretext, as they are aware Of the fact
that there is no law in existence by which
payment can be forced from them All
interests have their protection. The con
tractor and the mill men have their liens;
the real estate dealers have their morris
cages; the bankers have their endorsers
the cotton factors have their leins and
mortgages, the insurance companies can
cancel their policies when the premium is
not paid; the landlords have their protec>
ton in the distress warrant. But what
protection have the Merchants None in
the world They are forced by custom to
extend credit to their patrons, and may
prove themselves unworthy OF confidence,
and we think and believe that our State
to whom we pay taxes for support, should
adopt some law for our protection. And
there is no law that our Legislature can
enact that will protect US as we'll as gem
eral garnishment law, which will force
every man to pay his debts There will
be a convention Of representative mer>
chants held in Atlanta, Ga, July "a, 1890
Please call a meeting of your merchants,
and send two or more delegates to this
convention that we may formulate a Bill
and by a representative committee, present
it to the Legislature and pray them to
pass it as law
Please send delegates names as early
as possible to one Of the undersigned.
Respectfully,

Association, Atlanta, Ga.

greatly reduced for delegates who attend

rates also.

DASHED TO DEATH.
A Little Child Falls from Third Story
of Kimball House.

The little three year old child of
Mrs. Calkin, of Madison, Wisconsin,
tell from a window of the Kimball
House TO the rock pavement below,
on Saturday night, about 9 o'clock.
The mother had instructed the nurse
to put the child to bed, and leaving
the room herself went to the corri-
dor of the second floor to hear the
music of the orchestra that was play
ing in the corridor below.
1t appears that the bed in which
the child was placed to sleep was
pushed very near the window look
ing upon Pryor street.
So soon as the nurse left the room
the child seems to have rolled across
the bed out of the window and fell
to the hard pavement below.
Mr.. E. 7. Moss was sitting with
several other gentlemen in chairs,
at the edge of the sidewalk, and
when the child fell he leaped for
ward and picked it up and bore it
quickly to its mother, who knew
nothing of the dreadful accident.
The child received several fright
full gashes upon its head, and had its
right arm broken at the shoulder.
Everything that could be done for
the injured child and terrified moth
Ell was rendered by the physicians
and hotel proprietors.
The poor little child fingered
until II o'clock, when it died.
