 READY FOR ACTIVE SERVICE. The old vets met yesterday and took up the subject of law and order.
 They are for law and order to man, and ready to help enforce it..

 Speeches were made by Rufus N. Rhodes, N. F. Thompson, $. l.. Robertson and J. L. Nails.

 The committee reported the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted:
 To Camp Hardee of Confed crate Veterans: Your committee respectfully reports the following preamble and resolutions: Whereas, The peace and dignity of our community was greatly shocked by band of lawless men, who perpetrated foul and premeditated murder on the evening of July 16 at Pratt mines, by attacking with deadly weapons deienseless laborers while pursuing their daily avocations; now therefore be it resolved:
 1. That we, the members of Confederate Veterans of Camp Hardee, in meeting as- 6emOleQ, uO nereDy anuOuuce III uu- measured terms the diabolical deed as foul, dastardly and cowardly murder. Lan- guage is scarcely adequate to express our supreme contempt for the base towards who would thus attack an unarmed and innocent people.
 g. That we do hereby pledge ourselves to our great chief magistrate, Thomas G. Jones, who has been so indefatigable and untiring in his efforts to suppress lawless- ness and restore peace and good order in this district, to do whatever he may direct or desire of us to bring to justice the vile n1iscreants and perpetrators of this foul and unparalleled murder.
 8. That it has been brought to our at- tention that there have been infiammatory publications and speeches which tend to encourage anarchy and misrule and to arouse the passions of our citizens, and we do hereby denounce such sentiments as an outrage upon the peace and good order of our country, and we earnestly insist that all persons should refrain from everything that will tend to infiame the minds and passions of the people.

 Chairman.

SETTLED THE CLAIMS.

Passengers Injured on the Arlington Ex-
tension are Settled With.
The accident on the Arlington extern
sion of the Central railroad on May 80,
wherein a passenger coach was thrown
down an embankment and score of peo-
pie seriously injured, is well remer4 bered
in Dawson, where several of those who
were hurt are known.
Suits against the road were threaten
ed, but nearly allof those injured have
consented to a settlement. Several Of
these went to Albany on Friday, where
they were paid the amounts agreed upon.
1t is learned that Adjus er Crenshaw
succeeded in settling these claims at an
average of $50 each, the highest award
being $3.50.

BETTER RATES WANTED.
PROPERTY. OWNERS ANXIOUS FOR A
CHANGE.
From the High Rates of Insurance Now
Exacted by the Southeastern Tariff
Association,

Dawson merchants and Dawson people
generally are patient and long suffering,
and usually will submit to a good deal
rather than disturb the gen eral serenity
of the situation, but when imposed ON
none are quicker to show resentment.
And it is against the exaction of that
organization known as the Southeastern
Tariff Association that our people are
constantly kicking.
If ever a city or community had just
cause for grievance Dawson has one
against this trust controlling as it
does every insurance company doing
business in the state of Georgia.
When Dawson had only small
fire department and her water supply
consisted of fur small clsterns,
there was no protest over the rates OF
insurance charged under the rules of the
Tariff Association, but it was confident
ly believed, in view of assurances of the
companies, that with a system of water
works second to none in the state there
would be material reduction in rates.
But insurers claim that the Association
is charging as much and in some cases
more than was charged under the old or
der of things, our people now paying, 1T is
alleged, fully as high, if not higher, rates
than they did ten years ago.
Dawson pays out annually thousands
of dollars in premiums to the companies
represented by the Southeaste Tariff
Association; and THE NEWS has often
suggested the organization of a homo
insurance company, hoping thereby 10
secure the desired relief and keep our
money at home, but while the PROPOSE
ton has been favorably considered
active steps towards organization have
never yet been taken. A company of
this kind, under careful and conservative
management, would undoubtedly do as
well here as in other cities in the state,
and break the present monopoly of the
Southeastern Tariff Association.

Colored school Circles in Stew.

1t seems that there is trouble in
negro school circles. Some of them are
not satisfied with the present teacher
that the board of education has in charge
of the public school of that persuasion,
and have gotten up petition containing
90 names asking that change be made.
To counterfeit this the principal, j. 7.
Russell, has a petition containing nearly
$50 names asking that he be retained.
Both petitions have been filed with the
secretary of the board, and will be acted
upon at the next meeting of that body.

The Tax Returns.

The city tax digest has closed, and
some of the largest taxpayers of the city
have failed to make their returns. They
will probably send in their returns later,
and appeal to the council to relieve them
of double tax.
1t is not known yet how the tax re-
turns will show up, but it is not believed
that they will be as large as they iwere
last year.

Next Saturday is the time appointed
for the populists to hold convention in
Dawson and nominate candidate for
the legislature. Hon. VIM. Jennings,

REPUBLICANS MEET
AND APPOINT DELEGATEs 70 THE
STATE CONVENTION.
A lotion TO Fuse With the Populists No
Acted UpOn--AnOther Meeting to Be
Held

The republicans of Terrell county held
a meeting in the court house Saturday
afternoon.
George Brooks was chairman, and
when he called the meeting to order not
more than twenty five or thirty negroes
were present.
The object of the meeting seems to
have been the appointment of delegates
to represent Terrell county in the state
republican convention, which will meet
in Atlanta on the 10Th inst. Nero Clark
and Andrew jackson were chosen as
delegates.
A motion was made that the republic
cans of the county pledge their support
to the populist nominees, but action
upon it was deferred until after the state
convention, when meeting will be held
to determine what course they will per-
sue in the approaching campaign.
During the meeting there was consid-
cradle speech-making of various kinds,
and after all had had their say adjourn
ment was taken until the second Saturday
in August.

Dropped Money on Races.


Dropped Money on Races.
New York Press.
1t was mean trick that his fellow
employees got off on Train Dispatcher
West, of the Brooklyn bridge. West is
a practical joker, and also plunger ON
the races. Lately he lost lump of
money OH Sirocco, and he felt very sore
about it. This week a companion
presented him with crow. It
was bird of glossy plumage,
bright, dancing eyes. and as sleek
and as plump as Maltese kitten. West
was delighted with his acquisition, and
after profusely thanking his friend. who
departed rather hastily, with twinkle
in his eyes, sat down to observe the
handsome bird and indulge in pleasing
reflections OF the excellent company he
would have at night while ON duty. 81
When West attempted to open COP
versatiQu with the crow 1t astonished
him and almost dazed him at the very
start by calculating: They're Of
Sirocco in the Lead"
!. Then all became clear to the hapless
dispatcher. His friend had for some
days been teaching the crow to repeat.

would reiterate its ironical allnsionto

every art he could call to his aid, en-.
deavored to divert the creatures words
and thoughts 10 other channels. Each
effort met with failure. Exasperated

got rid of the 0bnoxio creature,

Since Emperor Williams return to
Berlin. large numbers of uniformed DO
lice are always present at the railroad
station when he arrives there or departs
from the city. During the parade Tues

foot. These precautions are being con.
nected with the recent arrest of auarch-
lists in the city.
An interesting military horse race or
test of endurance is shortly to take
place. The emperor has ordered two
officers of the dragoon guards to ride
from Berlin to COlogne,a distance of 3l2
miles, within four days. Each officer is
restricted to make use of one horse and
the two contestants will only be accom-
panied by bicycllsts.
During the coming army maneuvers
the bicycle and the use of trained dogs
will be tested OH large scale. Hence
forth the bicycle is to form part of the
equipment of each infantry corps,
and each battalion will have a de-
tachment of trained riders, as we'll as an
expert to train them in the use
of the wheel. The dog is becoming
more generally used In warlike opera
tions, especially for advance guard and
field dispatch service. although it has
been demonstrated that c0llies are the
only dog which have been found avail
able for this work, and their number is
limited II the selection is confined to
first-class animals.
