WHY CULBERT
SMILES AGAIN
Will Not Have to "Pad" His
Expense Account This
Trip.

nv FILL c. CULBERT, who
" travels for a local paper
wv company, has entirely re-
w covered from an attack of
heart failure, complicated
by a partial stroke of paralysis,
cold feet, loss of memory, clammy
persipration and nervous prostra-
ton, all of which hit him while COM
ing up from Bakersfield last Mon
day, just after the train had left
Tracy, and left him in a mighty bad
way for a time.
Culbert always was an easy one
- for a drummer - but always
claimed to be able to take care of
himself and his purse, barring poker
and like mishaps. Now he is not
so confident of his ability in this re-
spect. The man of grips and good
stories had been off on a long trip
and was anxious to get home. His
expenses had been heavy and that
may have accounted for his anxiety
and his subsequent critical condi-
ton; had he been just starting out
the loss of a hundred might not
have had such a disastrous effect.
But expense accounts must be kept
within reason, you know.
Well, at Tracy the train stopped
for fifteen minutes and Culbert got
off to stretch his legs. Previous to
that he had stretched them across
to the opposite seat in the Pullman.

the moulting of his pocketbook all

Solicitor General Osborne replied 10 crit
icisms made upon his course by Recorder
Hartridge at the recent meeting OF the
Liberal Club He did not like to be call

challenged any man to show that during
the two years of his administration OF his
office that he had ever allowed politics 10

was unable TO make the reply whlch ne
had intended TO make, he said, as Mr.
Hartridge had called upon him at his once
and explained that nothing which ne hal
said at the meeting in any manner reflect
ed upon Mr.. Osborne. However, Mr.. Os-
borne proceeded to give Mr.. Hartrdge
rasping, characterizing him as perpetual
candidate who had appeared before the
people several times but had never been
able 10 secure majority of their votes
and had only obtained Office finally by the
gift of a partisan board elected upon an
issue foreign to those upon which Mr..
Hartridge had made his campaigns
Mr.. Osborne predicted that ne and Mr..
Hartridge would be opposed 10 each other
two years hence upon platforms diametri-
eally opposite when ne promised to make
it so warm for the recorder that he would
never be heard of politically again.
There were other speakers upon the
programme, but for some reason they fail
ed to appear and the meeting was adjourn
ed by the chairman upon the plea of po-
litical work, which was necessary to be
done before the morning of the election.
MIR. Hartrdge stated after the meeting
that in his speech Saturday night he
made the point that gambling was con-
Quoted In the community despite the fact
that in the last two years in the City and
Superior Courts the enormous sum Of
$685. 600 in round figures had been collected
from gamblers in the shape of fines. Not
a dollar of this amount, he said, went into
the public treasury, but was paid into the
registry of the courts. This money, I'M
der the law, went to the officers of court
to compensate them for services under the
head of insolvent costs.
Mr. Hartridge said he did not intimate
that the solicitors action in these cases
was improper. Hearing, however, that
Mr. Osborne had the idea that he had
been charged with corruption in this
matter. Mr.. Hartridge went to him of his
own voltion and stated that the solicitor
was laboring under the wrong impression
He added that he did antagonze the sys-
tenn.
Mr.. Hartridge, in his speech, made the
point that 1t appearing to be impossible
to stop the gambling evil as affairs We're
going on at present, the community needed
a man like Mr.. McDonough TO stamp il
out.
AS to the language used about him by
the speakers of the evening, Mr.. Hart
ridge stated that he regretted to learn
that they could descend to its use. They
seemed, he said. to have mistaken abuse
for argument.

Not Opposed to Labor.

At a meeting of employees of the Morn

was adopted
a card is in circulation, signed by Off
GERS of the Savannah Typographical
Union. that Col. ]. H. Estill is antago~
nistic to the best interests of the organ
lied working people of Savannah. This
is not a fact, as Col. Estil was at one
time president of Savannah Typographical
Union, and was always in accord with
the principles of the organization in the
days when working people recognized that
proprietors had some rights. 1t Is well
known to many in Savannah that the pres
ent union was organized at his request
and that as long as the union was con-
Quoted with an interest for both the en-
ployer and employed, there was never any
difficulty that arose between Col. Estin
and his employees that was not amicably
adjusted. But when the transient ele-
ment, with no local interests at stake,
obtained control of the organization and
tried TO run his establishment, through
agents from other cities to suit the views
state to the printers generally that he
proposed to run his office to suit his ideas
and has done so since. All he wanted TO
do was to run his business himself.
As a matter of fact some of the best
men who walked out of the office at the
time of the strike of several years ago,
returned to their work and are still en-
ployed in 1t.
Col Estill, from the experience of those
now in his employ, has always treated his
employees with kindly consideration. They
know how the union, through its disturb
ing element did seek to control the inner
workings of his establishment, and know
that since the orge nization has no control
in IT, the men who have been In his en-
ploy for years have had peace and con-
tentment and are doing as we'll IL not
better, in the way of pay than anywhere
else in Georgia, or in the South.
Col Estill was never opposed to organ
lied labor per sc. but bitterly opposed
turning his establishment over to people
from other sections.
This Is adopted with the view of doing
justice to a man who has always acted
fairly with His Employees.
