Following is the proclamation refer
red to:
The governor tells of the reproach
| heaped upon the state by the repeated
outbreaks and says:
"The purity of the fair mothers and
daughters of Georgia must and shall
be preserved and at the same time the
lives and liberties of all the law abiding
negroes in Georgia must and shall be
protected. Arson and burglary and
assassin alton and robbery and criminal
assault must stop. The good of both
races and the fair name Of the state de-
mand THE.
1.-The laws are sufficient to punish all
criminals. Our judges are pure and
incorruptible. Our juries are compos-
ed of our most Intelligent, upright
mob often make mistakes and the in
nocent are made to suffer with the
guilty. It never knows where to stop,
but after Furnishing the guilty, drunk
with the blood of one victim, it thirsts
for the blood of another and often sa-
crifces on the altar of vengeance those
who are guiltless of aoy crime.
1--WE must away with the mob. We
must re-enthrone the law. We must
restore the altar of reason and tear
down the altar that passion has erect
ed. We must do this in the interest of
the white men of Georgia and in the
interests of the negroes of Georgia, and
for the fair name of Georgia, and
to protect the virtue of the women of
Georgia.
Lynch law does not stop arson, nor
murder, nor robbery, no criminal as
sault. This requires the strong power
of the statute law, sustained by
healthy, vigorous public sentiment.
81 would appeal" continues Gov.
Gambler, $50 all officers of the state,
civil and military, urging them to re-
member that the dignity and the fair
name of Georgia are in their keeping.
would appeal to them to remember
that they are the guardians of the
peace and happiness of the people of
the state. 1t is their duty to appre-
late the law, whether it be the negro
who commits criminal assault or the
white mau who kills him for the crime.
The grand juries must realize that it Is
as much their duty to ferret out and
return true bills against members of
the mob who lynch a murderer as it is
to return q true bill against the mur-
derer himself.
81 would appeal especially to the bar
to bring that potent influence which
the membe of the profession exercise
in every community to the aid of law
and order, not only by discountenan-
cling mob rule, but by aiding the courts
and juries in bringing accused parties
to speedy trial. 1t is the duty of a
lawyer to see that his client has fair
and impartial trial, but he should not
resort to mere technicalities and pre-
texts to defeat the ends of justice or
even to delay the enforcement of pen
alttes whereby society suffers and the
of the people in the ability
of the courts to punish crime is de-
strOyed.
''In bringing about this end" said
the governor in conclusion, 81 would
invoke the active, earnest cooperation
Of all good men, white and black, with |
the officers of the law in their efforts
10 prevent crime, suppress mob viol-
ence and bring criminals to justice and |
20 restore peace and order and tran
guilty to all of our people of every |
ace, class and condition."

FAR REACHING EFFECT
On American Export Trade
And Diversion from
Southern Ports
Predicted.

MONTREAL, Aug. 3.-Work on the
Soulanges canal is all but completed
aud If present plans do not miscarry
this waterway, which is the last link
in the chain of improvements that the
Canadian government has been max
ing along the St. Lawrence river for q
number of years, will be formally open
ed with public ceremonies within the
next few weeks.
The Importance of this canal to the
Dominion and to the central ard west
ern portions of the United States can
hardly be overestimated. It means
that the largest boats on the great
lakes can pass freely with their cargoes
to the Atlantic.
According to those who bave studied
the problem the change is expected to
have fsr-reaching effect on commerce.
Among other things it is anticipated
that the opening of the new canal will
reduce the rate from Chicago and 9TH
er lake ports to the sesboard from l to
2 ceEts bushel on grain, and among
the probable consequences will be to
diminish the amount of grain now go
ing south to Port Arthur, Galveston,
New Orleans and other gulf cities.
The new route via Montreal, in the
opinion of some transportation experts,
will slowly but surely divert the grain
export trade from New York, as under
the new conditions there will be less
need of transferring grain at Montreal.
Steamers can run between this city
and Liverpool much more proftably
than between New York and Liverpool
the last coaling station nearly 1000
miles nearer the English port. Car
goes can thus be greatly increased and
the coal supply diminished.

THE YAQUI WAR.
News From the Front is Being Eager
1y Sought.

Newspapers in all parts of the Unit
ed States are making desperate efforts
to get auJhen tic news from Sonora re-
garding the Yaqui Indian uprising aud
several Of them have sent correspond
ents to the scene Of hostilities.
1t costs money to get telegraph news
out of Mexico and in addition to that
nothing will be forwarded for less than
commercial rates to the newspapers in
the United States without authority
from the government, which controls
all wires. .4s-
From advices received here from the
lower Yaqui river valley it seems that
the Indians to the number of q thou
sand or more are massing in the Batuc-
co mountains and that they are well
armed and equipped and will give the
troops much trouble when q general
conflict takes place.
MEXICAN TROOPS.
A dispatch sent last night says:
1t is learned from Hermosillo, Mex
leo, that three regiments of cavalry,
artillery will constitute the army going
to the Ysqui stronghold in the Bstuc.
CO mountains.
All are ordered to move by Friday.
The Yaquis are moving in small de-
tachments from place to place ravag-
ing the country.
All the tribes are headed for the
Batucco mountains.
FRIENDLY TO AMERICANS
An Ell Psso Associated Press dis
patch gives assurance that the In
dians will not molest Amer
leans.
Reports from below have already an
nOunced the murder of several Amer
leans.
The dispatch follows:
Ell Paso, Aug. Louis F. Trude,
who has spent the past three months in
the.hesrt of the Yaqui Indian country,
reached here this evening by way of
Casas Graudes. He reports that on
June 24th and 25th, while on the Rio
Cedros, Sonora, he met three bands of
Yaquis heavily armed. numbering
about 400 men.
Many spoke English and said they
were miners and were bound for the
Yaqui valley to protect their people
and homes. They said Americans had
never been and would not nov be mo-
Tested.
They said they would annihilate any
Mexican soldiers who ventured to in
wade their country from the eastward.
AS they come, through the men will
retire into the mountains of south
eastern Sonora and here await the
Mexican soldiers.
They claim the present war was
brought about by the unfsithfulness of
the Mexican government, which two
y ears ago gave them certain lands in
the Yaqui valley and is now granting
the same to individuals and corpora
tions for speculative purposes.
