much yet to learn when given the re-
sponsibility Of manager.
He must attend the conventions and
note the improved methods and the nee
essary requirements. He must learn
from the experience of others. He must
subscribe literally to the dairy journals
and read them, too, for this is day of
advancement and ever changing meth
DDS, and the manager that is alive to
the interests Of his creamery will not
fail in any of these particulars.
Above all things let there be har-
mony, and the key to harmony is conf
dence. To gain confidence there must
be no secrets either from officer or pa
iron. Explain to them your method Of
bookkeeping, show them that it is open
for criticism, show them that you are
willing to meet them half way in every
thing, and in most cases you will have
secured friend. Iwould suggest-never
lose your independence Or subject your
self to ridicule, but let your independ-
ence be such that you may have perfect
control Of it at all times. The manager
must not expect his creamery to march
near the head of the procession unless
he himself is in the lead.

COOLER WEATHER ON THE WAY.


Weather Bureau and the Birds
Agree That 1t Is Coming.
The cold wave that was promised by the
weather bureau for yesterday did not make
its appearance. Whether it took another
course is not known, as reports Of it were
not received at the station last night.
1t may be that the wave has only "wav-
cred" and will put ins tardy appearance
to-day. The weather observer will think
it strange if the colder temperature of the
northwest does not have an effect on that
of this section. For the past few days the
cooler weather has been gradually APP
preaching. Beginning, no doubt, away
up about the Klondike somewhere the
wave has progressed in a southeasterly
direction. Its effects have been very per-
ceptible in the Ohio valley region.
For the last few nights a circumstance
has been noticed that is regarded as
sign of the approach Of colder weather by
both the bureau and those who put more
reliance in their own pet observations and
theories regarding the weather. This has
been the nocturnal flight of the migratory
birds. Many have noticed that last night
and the night before the air seemed at
times filled with their cries. This is con-
sdered an infallible sign. The keen in
stinct Of the fowls of the air seems
to warn them of the approach
of the cooler temperature and to suggest
to them the propriety of their finding a
more comfortable home in the balmy
south. The United States weather bureau
thinks so much of this sign that like the
'haruspices' of old Rome. who took as
omens, good or bad, the flight of the birds
the movements of the migratory fowls are
carefully watched and a record is kept Of
the time they take up their southwark or
northward flight.
The last few days have been particu-
larry unbearable, on account of the heat
Coming so late in the season, this has been
looked upon as something of a surprise
and it has been all the more objectionabl BILE
on account of its being unlocked for The
temperature has not been so very high,
but there has been a great deal of humid
ity in the atmosphere, and this has had
the tendency TO add to the heat The
month of September enjoys reputa ton
Of nearly always bringing along with it
this surfeit of moisture, thereby helping
to make II uncomfortable.

and that he has not advised in favor Of
quarantine IS a strong point. DR.. Stone is
in close touch with the sanitary authori
ties there and we have the assurance that
he will notify us promptly OF any unfa-
vorable developments.
I'VE are on intimate terms with At
lanta, and there is constant intercourse
between the two cities" said Dr. Owens
in conclusion. "A great amount of neon
venience would be caused by a quaran-
tine. There IS a very large traffic between
the two cities, and business would be Sc
riously interfered with. A business man
here might be compelled to go to Atlanta,
and should he do so he could not return
here until he could show that he had been
ten days out Of Atlanta. 1t is easy TO
see the Inconvenience that would result.
Should the necessity arise the sanitary
board and council would not hesitate to
place a quarantine upon Atlanta. ! do
not believe there is any necessity for
quarantine at present. though it may arise
at any moment"
A travelling man who had stated that
he had come into the city without having
been questioned by the inspectors, was
called before the board yesterday and
questioned as to the occurrence. The in
spectors have been notified that their in
structions must be carried out to the
letter.

VIOLATED THE QUARANTINE.
Passenger Who Doarded a Train AZ
ter BEING Put OF.


Another case is reported of a passenger
having violated the quarantine rules and
made his way into the city, notwithstand-
ing the fact that he did not have a health
certificate
The story was told by a young man
who came dow1 night before last from
Atlanta. He says that when the train
reached Meldrlm the quarantine officer
came aboard and began to examine the
certificates of the passengers. There was
one who did not have certificate. The
officer told him that he would have to get
off the train at Meldrim. but this the man
did not seem inclined to do. He left the
car, however and when the train had
started again on its way to Savannah and
gained some Roadway, his move was to
run along with it and swing himself
aboard the last car, a sleeper. He was
told by the porter that he could not stay
aboard the sleeper, SO he went back to
the day coach. There the conductor had
something to say about the man getting
back aboard the train after being ordered
off by the officer at the station.
He was told that he would have TO get
off at the next station, but he said that
he did not know about that; that he had
paid for a ticket to Savannah, and that
he intended to come In on that train.
The matter rested here after the conduct
or telling him that he would report him
to the authorities after he had gotten to
the city.
A railroad man, in speaking Of the quar-
antine last night, said that among the
most effective regulations he has seen dur
ing his recent travels over the south are
those at Brunswick Passengers entering
that place are subjected to a double in
spection. The train is met first at Ever
EFT, where the inspectors so through to
examine the certificates. Those who have
certificates are given additional ones by
the inspectors, while those who have not
are made to get off the train. When the
Dock station. ten miles from Brunswick,
is reached, another inspector demands the
certificates that were given up the road.

THE MAYOR WRITES AGAIN.
But the Ship Agents Refuse TO Re-
consider Their Position.


No change IN the longshorAnens strike
situation developed yesterday, and mat
ters are in their familiar state, the union
demanding higher wages and the ship
agents, apparently with no doubts of their
being able 10 get enough men to do their
work, strongly refusing to accede TO the
demands.
A second communication was received
by the agents from Mayor Meldrim, and
had It been answered differently, 1t would
have caused a change in the situation.
However. it met with the same result, to
the strikers, an unsatisfactory one, the re-
ply being the same that has been accorded
all their communications.
Mayor Meldrim again interceded for the
union, sending a letter asking the agents
If it might not be possible that they had
determined to accept the proposition, made
Saturday that the longshoremen's wages
be made 1926 and g. instead Of 81 and IS
per day as asked, and instead of the wages
now paid. A reply was sent the mayor
signed by the agents jointly, stating that
they would abide by the answer given Sat
urday, and would grant nothing more than
the concession of the quarter day instead
of the hour system.
OdnuN 1EnELl. Ale DItSlltlAl VI AlAC LIN .
shoremen's Protective Union Association,
states that the matter Of the S3.25 and 81
wages has not yet been considered by that
body and, even If granted by the agents,
he is not sure that the pay would be sat
isfactory to the members. 1t is under
stood that the men have taken an iron
clad oath not to go to work for anything
less than the 81 and s. demanded before
the opening of the season. This being the
case, it is said that to induce them to
accept payment at lower rate would be
a hard task.
Rhett says he thinks the agents should
settle the question of higher wages right
now. He is confident, he says,
that two years hence the men
now doing the longshoremen's work
will demand an increase in their pay, as
the knowledge of the work they will have
then acquired would in their opinion JUS
tify them in making the demand. He
also thinks that the extremely hard work
of cotton jamming and the experience that
enables them to load vessel tightly and
expeditiously should entitle them to a
greater regard for their labors.
None of the iougshoremen left last night
for Norfolk as some of the leaders re-
ported they would do. 1t was said than
forty gangs were wanted there, but the
ranks at that place will not be repleted
from Savannah if the longshoremen show
no more disposition to go than they have
done recently.
About fifty white iongshoremen went
over to Charleston on the morning train.
They say they will receive there higher
wages than are paid here. There is talk
of some of the colored cotton workers fol-
lowing them at an cary date but so far
nothing in that direction has been done.

THE COTTON RATE QUESTION.
Capt. Purses Argument Before the
Commission Ready For Distribu-

ton.
A printed pamphlet, entitled Cotton
Freight Rates in Georgia" has just been
issued from the press of the Morning
News, and is now being distributed by
Commissioner d. G. Purse of the Savannah
Bureau OF Freight and Transportation.
The pamphlet relates to the recent ap-
plicaton to the railroad commission for a
reduction of % per cent. in freight rates
on cotton, which was recently argued be-
fore the commission. The pamphlet in
cludes the correspondence between Com
missioner Purse and the authorities of the
cotton exchange relative to this matter
together with the resolutions adopted by
that body authorizing the application by
the bureau for the reduction, together
with the subsequent affirmation by the
cotton exchange of its position in the
shape OF the report of its transportation
committee; the argument by Capt. Purse
before the commission in support of the
petition; the closing argument for the rail-
roads by General Counsel j. b, Cumming
of the Georgia railroad; the closing argu-
ment for the petitioners by Capt. Purse;
the majority decision OF the commission
denying the prayer of petitioners for re-
lief, and the dissenting opinion OF Com
missioner Allen Fort. disagreeing with the
decision of his associates.
The whole makes interesting reading.
Capt. Purses argument is one of the
strong documents. A full and complete
review of the railroad situation in Geor-
gia and the south is given, contrasting the
rates paid on cotton with those paid by
other bulk merchandise, and the different
conditions existing when these rates were
put into effect with those of to-day, with
an increased crop and improved facilities
for handling it, Is discussed at length.
Capt. Purse makes an exhaustive review
OF the subject supporting his argument
with statistics from authorities. The re-
ply of MI Cumming and the dissenting
opinion of Commissioner Fort make inter
esting reading. A perusal of the pamphlet
is worth the while of those interested in
the cotton rate question. and also those
Interested in railroads. A number of the
pamphlets will be distributed by Capt
Purse.

WITH HIS CONGREGATION.
Rev. Arthur j. Smith at the First
Presbyterian Church Again.


Presbyterian Church Again.
The congregation of the First Presbyte-
rian church gladly welcomed back the
pastor, Rev. Arthur ]. Smith, at the
morning service yesterday Rev. Mr.
Smith had been absent on his vacation,
travelling through North Carolina, as well
as different places about the locality of
his boyhood days, in New York state.
His congregation was elated over the
return Of their pastor, and at the close
of the service DIR. Smith proceeded to the
vestibule, where he received and extended
greetings to all. He had been manifesty
refreshed from his labors, and said that
he had received incalculable benefit, both
physical and spiritual
The text of his sermon was taken from
passages in Luke and the controlling
thought, from which all the salient points
were deducted, was that of companionship.
Said the speaker:
In the world, there are those who are
learning, the student in the college, the
pupil in the high school, and all those
who are engaged in ordinary business life.
But to learn, one must be disciple a fol-
lower, a learner. You may sit and let
your pastor open the word of God to
you, but to get the full benefit of the
truths, you must be in sympathy and in
touch with God and Gods people.
What is required of one to become a
disciple? One must fopsake all and be-
come as one of the twelve, that walked
and talked with Jesus With the smallest
of the children who attend school, there
is an affinity and a confidence which sub
sists, and, in their own vernacular they
become 'chums.' Among other relations
which are illustrative of the point which
L make, is the business co-partnership.
Two partners being in business, one will
remain at home, selling all the goods pos
sible, while the other will go out as a
buyer, endeavoring to make purchases
which will be to the best interests of the
firm. The interests of these two men are
>identical-they are working to the same
end. Now when we realize that we are
taken into copartnership with Jesus, we
will be better Christians and will find
more sunshine and fellowship in life.
mo man can be in fellowship, who has
blemishes-such as a hate for anyone But,
in the Bible, the word hate is not to be
construed in its general acceptance. 1t is
commonly used to express your dislike, as
when you despise anyone. But in Biblical
sense, it means to love less. The love for
God must be supreme. Nothing must be
paramount to God, and in the case of the
business man, do not mean that he must
sell out and go to preaching, but that he
must simply serve God sincerely and place
Him above all earthly affairs"

QUARANTINE HURTS HOTELS.
Registers show But Few Names at
This Time.

The registers of the hotels during the
past few days have indicated very per-
ceptible falling off in the passenger travel
Of the railroads. At the hotels, where
two weeks ago the registrations covered
two or three pages. there are now to be
seen comparatively few names and the
clerks think the falling off is directly due
to the establishment of quarantine.
A great deal of mail has arrived for
prospective guests whom the quarantine
is thought to have kept away from the
city. Instructions are received from the
people to whom the mail Is addressed as
to where it is to be forwarded. The no.
tells are good indication of the decrease
IN the passenger traffic. There is no ques-
ton but that the receipts of the passenger
departments of the roads throughout the
south will show a considerable falling off
on account of the quarantine.
