DECATUR'S TAX DIGEST.
Shows a Large Decrease, but the
County Better off Than for Years.

Shows a Large Decrease, but the
County Better off Than for Years.
cambridge, Ca, Aug 1.-THE repeal
of the act providing the board of tax
equalizers, which compelled full return
of property, and the natural shrinkage
caused by the depressed financial condi-
tion of the country, has caused shrink
age in the tax digest Of Decatur county,
of 1881 1880. Notwithstanding this
shrinkage, the board of county commits
sioners, at their regular meeting last
Monday assessed the small sum of three
mills for general county purposes and a
half mill for a fund to be used in the
building of new county jail. The tnan-
cial condition of this county is better
than IL has been for many wears past as is
demonstrated by the fact that notwith-
standing the terrible shrinkage in the
taxable property of the county and the
extra assessment levied for Jail purposes,
the rate per cent. will not be increased
and the county has plenty of money in
her treasury, and has had no need for
the past year to borrow a dollar.
CHAIRMAN RESIGNS.
Hon. John d. Harreu, the present
chairman of the board of county commits
sIoners, much to the regret of the entire
people, has rendered his resignation. Mr.
Harrel has few equals and no superiors
as a hnancier. The board has not as vet
accepted his resignation.
Congressman Ben r. Russell of the
Second district is making many friends
all Ov er the district.
FOR UNCONDITIONAL REPEAL
Our people all approve of the uncondi-
tional repeal of the Sherman law Bust
ness is much improved, our merchants all
have large stocks of goods and the general
outlook tor fine seasons business the
coming fall Is brighter than it has been
Tor years Tor the reason that farmers owe
less than they have for many years, and
have made this years crop on less ex-
pense than any crop heretofore and our
bank has plenty of money TO move the
crop. There will be more meat raised in
this county this year than any two years
since the war. Cotton is rolling in and
farmers are not only paving this years
accounts, but are making liberal payments
on old scores.
PAYING THEIR DEBTS.
Their is quite u noticeable disposition
among the farmers TO pay up all of their
Indebtedness and in the future do bust
ness on a cash basis Before this fail
season is over Bainbridge viii rank as
one of the foremost business points in all
Southwest Georgia.

SUPERIOR COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE BoNNEY.


MoNpAY--State vs.. Frank Beaudry.
The respondent was indicted in 1892 with
Auguste Fortin and one Desjardine for
the crime of forgery. Fortin and Des-
iardine pleaded nolo contendere, but
Beaudry left the state and was not ar
rested until last June. In 1891 and 81
Beaudry was Assistant Superintendent
of Agents of the Metropolitan Life In
surance Company in it's Industrial branch
at Brunswick, Ne. The claim of the
government was that Beaudry and the
others were parties to some crooked bus
mess in getting policies issued on the
life of one Ann Gothier; that they got a
policy issued to one Berger representing
that he was a cousin to Ann when in fact
he was no relative and had no insurable
interest in her. The company also had
another policy on the life of Ann, paya-
BILE in case of death to her mother, Eliz-
abeth Gothier. Ann died. Proofs of
death were furnished the company; a
cheek for the whole amount was sent
payable to Elizabeth Gothier and a re-
lease purporting to be signed by her
with her mark, sent back to the COM
pany. 1t turned out. as the State claim
ed, that neither the proofs of death, the
check nor the release were in fact signed
by Elizabeth Gothier but that her name
or her mark was forged TO all. Forth
and Desjardine pleaded guilty to forging
ono of the proofs of death. Beaudry was
put on trial on two indictments, one for
forging the endorsement Of Elizabeth
Gothier to the check and the other for
forging her nome to the release.
After the testimony for the govern
ment was nearly all in the County At
torney entered a mol pros on the indict-
ment for forging the endorsement to the
check. Upon the other Indictment Mr..
E. NJ Rand, counsel for Beaudry said he
should offer no testimony in defense and
the case went to the jury without argu-
ment, and verdict Of guilty was return
ed.
Beaudry was then sentenced ito i'm
prisonment for two years in the State
Prison. 8
