GAMBLER BLAMES MEDDLERS
Ignorant Fanatics Said TO he Largely
Responsible for Mob Violence
In the south.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 25.-The Georgia
legislature met in regular session today.
After organization had been perfected the
message Of Governor Gambler was read
Governor Gambler devoted several paragraphs
of his message to the twin subjects of crime
and mob violence He takes the position
that the unusual amount Of crime by lawless
negroes and the consequent unprecedented
amount Of mob violence can be laid at the
door of the intermeddling and irresponsible
fanatics and fools who do not know anything
of the situation in the south. He believes
that almost, If not all, of these criminal
acts on the part Of the lawless negroes can
be traced TO the people whose utterances, in
their newspapers and through incendiary
letters sent to negroes in the south have
greatly aggravated a situation which they
profess to deplore.

HEARD ABOUT TOWN.

The reports in the morning papers that
Cattle Plunger Gillett of Kansas City fame
is down with smallpox at his home at Chi
huahua, Mex, is of special interest to Cap
tain Webb, United States secret service agent
in this city. The captain was in Mexico a
few days ago and while there saw Gillett
at one of the hotels in Chihuahua as he was
making his rounds peddling milk AS he
had no business with the plunger he kept
away from him and now he is glad that he
did so. Speaking Of Gillett Captain Webb
said:
This fellow, who gained notoriety so sud =
denly, resides in an adobe building just out
side the city limits. 1t is a one-story struc-
ture. low and rangy, and looks as though
it might have been built 300 or 400 years ago.
When | was there | heard that Gilletts
wife had smallpox and was living out at
this place, so | gave the family wide berth
not desiring to come in contact with any OF
the members.
while we fear smallpox up in this coun-
try, down there they don't pay any more at
tention to 1t than they do to the measles.
One day I was walking along the streets and
came upon a young man who seemed to be
in q rage. He was cursing and swearing at
the top of his voice. l accoSted him and
asked him the cause of his troubles. He re-
marked, as he pointed to a small boy half a
block ahead: See that kid; he's all broken
out with smallpox, and it Is shame that
the authorities don't take care of people
when they get as bad as that. So far as
know this young man may be swearing yet
| for didn't stay to listen to the close of his
| remarks

November Is to February 10. Last year,
however, there was no open season. The
National Live Stock exchange and exchanges
all over the country took the matter UP and
protested against a continuation OF the
closed season. At last the government has
recognized the injustice of the former or
ders and will allow shipments to be made
for two months at least. 1t is contended
by those who have made the matter a study
that the Texas tick cannot live in this
northern climate after cold weather sets in,
and for this reason the officers Of the Bureau
of Animal Industry recommended to the
secretary of agriculture that previous or
ders bearing on this subject be rescinded.
Parties in Texas who contemplate ship
ments to this market under the new con-
dition of affairs will find at the stockyards
here every facility for handling ca>>le from
below the quarantine line A special dvis-
ion and scale house is provided for Texas
cattle with every facility for rapid handling.
There is always a strong demand here for
light Texas cattle and the new order may
tend to increase Texas shipments to this
DOnt.
