SCHOOL BOOK FRAUDS.
A Circular From Commissioner Brad
we'll ON tha Snhiact

A Circular From Commissioner Brad
we'll on the Subject.
ATLANTA, Ga, Sept 17.-State School
Commissioner Bradwen to-day issued cir
cular letter TO the various county boards Of
education and others on the subject of
school book frauds, In which he quotes the
law plainly and then uses the fol-
lowing: "The county board of educa-
ton has the exclusive right to
prescribe what text books and books of
reference shall be used in the common
schools. The county school commissioner
has neither vote nor voice in the selection
| OF books; nor is the board under any legal
obligation to consult teachers, patrons
or agents. This power is delegated
TO the board alone. and the board
| must shoulder the entire responsibility.
| Therefore there must be but one set Of
books in each branch, for two sets OF arith-
metics, for Instance, would not be pre-
scription. The object of the law is uni
| formity throughout the county, and
| choice between two sets of books would
| defeat this object. The board has no
| right to prescribe text books out
side OF the branches specially mentioned
| by the legislature as constituting the cur
| riculum OF the common schools, viz: And
the board which has prescribed history.
physiology, song book, or any text book Of
the kind, no matter how elementary In its
compilation. has transcribed its power -,
and such prescription must be revoked ,"
THREATENS WARRANTS FOR BRIBERY.
The commissioner closes his letter, which
is likely TO provoke discussion both among
publishers. agents and boards Of education.
with the following clause: al charge the
boards and county school commissioners to
be particular on this point. Any attempt
20 secure influence looking to the prescrip-
ton of books or a change In the prescribed
books By presents of books, money or any,
thing Of value, should be met with war
rant for bribery and the guilty party
brought to Justice"
The direct object of the circular is TO
prevent the swindliug In school charts
which has been going on to a great extent
Ia the state for months past. Numbers of
school boards have been bribed to adopt
them at exor bitaut prices and all sorts Of
schemes have been attempted to get them
into schools. The commission also strikes
at the changing of text books, which has
also been brought about In many cases, it
is claimed, by the undue influence of the
agent.

meeting. hon. W. H. Cone was elected
chairman and J. R. Miller secretary. Hon.

address was an able one, which lasted about
one hour and fifteen minutes.

democratic banner which be then bore was
as dear 60 him as the flag he had the mis-
fortune to fall under over twenty-five
years ago. At this point tbe band struck
up that old time tune so dear to every
southern heart, the "Bonny Blue Flag"

by ]. F. Myers, former editor of the
ButLoch Banner, tbe official organ OF the
third party in the First congressional dis
trict. Mr.. Myers stated that he had writ
ten @. G. Post, asking him what argument
he could bring TO deny the charges made
against Gen. Weaver, but failed In getting
any satisfaction from him. He would like
TO have the people know that the third
party had no denial to make for the same.
Col ]. II. Blount arose and said that he
bad heard Mr.. Viewers fellow congress-
man from his own state make these same
charges on Weaver face to face, and that
Mr.. Weaver replied that they were true
and he had no apology to make.
LESTER ON THE ISSUES OF THE DAY.

Hon. Morgan Rawls of Guyton gave an
able address in behalf of democracy. The
crowd was estimated at 5000, nearly all of
whom were democrats.

A MURDER IN ATHENS.
THE BODY OF MR.. GALLOWAY
HORRIBLY MUTLATED.

The Scene of the Murder Shows
Signs Of a Desperate Struggle.
When Last Seen in Life-Robbery
Supposed to Be the Object of the
| Crime.
ATHENS, GA, Sept. 1.-THE usually
| quiet city OF Athens was the scene last night
Of one Of the most brutal murders ever
committed in the state. This morning at
6 o'clock as the people commenced the
duties OF another day they were met by the
report that William Galloway had been
foully murdered almost in the
heart of the city. Tho body
was found early this morning
in small grove near the Baxter street
school and reported to the authorities The
coroner at once started out to investigate.
When he arrived upon the scene horrible
sight met his gaze. Lying upon the ground
at full length. rigid in death, was the body
OF Mr.. Galloway, the face aud head mutt
lated almost beyond recognition. Blood was
upon everything around, and the place bore
evidences OF de5pe ate struggle. Close be-
side the dead mau was a BLOODY stick
and rock, which, when compared to the
wounds on his head, seemed to have been
the instruments of death. A closer investi-
CATION by the jury disclosed the fact that the
deceased's neck was broken aud that TWEEN
ty-nve cuts and bruises covered his head
and arms, making it probable that be was
assaulted by more than one.
WHEN LAST SEEN IN LIFE.
The last seen of Mr.. Galloway in life was
yesterday evening at . o'clock. AT that
time he passed through the campus on his
way home, carrying bundle OF merchan-
disc. In a few minutes afterwsrd he reached
the grove by path leading to his home,
and there his body was found this morning.
A large pine tree stands in the middle of the
path, aud it is supposed that the murderer
stood behind this concealed, and as Mr.. Cal
loway came up he was struck on the head
with the plank. Regainiug consciousness he
made a struggle which resulted in his head
being crushed with the rock. The object of
the murder is still a mystery. Mr.. Gallo
way was harmless, peaceable man, aud
had had no enemies. On the evening OK
the killing he was possessed of no money
but when found his pockets were turned,
which, taken in connection with the fact
that he is known to have a large sum in
bank, gives color to the theory of robbery.
No clew has been found yet pointing TO the
perpetrator Of the deed, but it is supposed to
be the work Of negroes, Mr.. Galloway was
good citizen and stood we'll in the COM
munIty aud to-day large reward is being
subscribed for the apprehension OF the
murderer He leaves wife and one child.

characterized it. No competitive bidding for
loans is another desirable feature; the book
rate being the rate at which borro wers secured
the money; the applicants being served in the
order received Full reports have been made
at each monthly meeting, and consequently the
exact condition Of the Association at all times
has been known from the start, and affairs
nave not been left to drag along until the
yearly meeting, and reports have forced pick
ing up OF the loose ends. Business has been
the watch word, business has been the practice
aud business will characterize the closing Of
that Association several months ahead of its
ca culated life. 1t is proposed to run the new
Association with the same officers and board in
the main, and as there are no systems that can
not be improved upon, some Objectionable
features in the old will be discarded and some
better ones migrated in lieu thereof. The sys-

NEGRO MEETING AT GRIFFIN.

William A. Pledger Makes a Strong
Speech for Gov. Northen.
GRIFFIN, GA. Sept. 1.-THE negroes OF
this county are much worse split up than
the whites. They have held several meet
the October election, but can arrive
at no decision; There was large
crowd of them from different
parts OF the county at the
court house to-day. They were called to
order by Epps Blanton, who is chairman Of
the county executive committee who an
nounced that the object OF the meeting was
to fill vacancies IN the committee. THIS
was accomplished with some trouble
an and t o9Sar speech W making .v,G was
that nobody would be allowed to speak
who was not thoroughly in accord with the
chairman. Epps Blanton and Luke Ev ans
and one or two others transacted all the
business Of the meeting and had the ma
jority of the crowd with them at all points
Several speeches were made, all extollins
republicanlsm aud advocating third party
ism as the next thing to IL, as it was an
tagonistio to the organized democracy,
the principal speaker being l.. S. Ingram

of Atlanta. After this had been going on
for over two hours, the other faction

the rising disturbance, but seeing that be
would not be able to do so, a motion to ad,
journ was carried amid great confusion. A
majority of the crowd left the room, aud
amidst the confusion, w. A. Pledger took
the stand and commenced an impassioneC
speech in loud tone.
he ADVOCATED NORTHERN
as against Peek, and denounced the coalition
between the negroes and the Peoples party
declaring that the last speaker had been
bought up. He (Pledger) was a delegate
30 Minneapolis, wss a trusted leader In the
national Republican party. but believed
in voting for the best man when the re-
publicans had no ticket. He made a good
speech, which was listened to and applauded
by about third of those who had as
sembled.
Tonight at 6 o'clock. as Bill Pledger was
boarding the up passenger for Atlanta he
was assaulted and knocked Off the train by
John Blanton, Tink Nunnally and Sam
Miider. Pledger was unhurt, but remained
In the city, as he was prevented from get
ting on the train. 1t is understood that the
cause for the assault grew out of some
remark Pledger made in bis speech at the
court house this morning. Evidently this
must be true, since the three assallants are
Peek followers, while Pledger is supporting
Gov. Northen. Warrants have been issued
for the assailants and the police are on the
lookout for them.
