open; 1t preserves the secrecy of the bal
lot, so that city employees, as well as mer-
chants,can vote with absolute secrecy and
feel that neither the job of the one nor
the business of the other can be impair
ed.
ut is said that efforts have been made
to register PERSONS. whose right to vote
may well be challenged, and that many
have thus been registered" said Mr.. La
Roche. why should not this registration
list be purged of the illegal voters? Why
should the vote of a reputable citizen be
destroyed by the illegal vote of vagrant
or tramp? Is the real objection to the
method of purging or is 1t to the fact of
purging? With a committee of % it IS
nearly impossible to do tht work of purg-
ing the list 1t is usual, proper and neces-
sary that large committee should dele
gate work of this kind to a sub-commit-
tee The subcommittee named, consisted
of Messrs. Willink, Letter and Sullivan.
"There is no reason or justice" said Mr..
LaRoche, Gin assuming that these gentle
men would act unfairly. Mr.. LETTER, who
is a supporter of Mr. Osborne, is a
gentleman of ability and integrity, and
while he declined to serve, his appoint
ment shows that the disposition on the
part of the committee was to have Mr..
Osborne represented by one of his ablest
and most responsible supporters.
1.-The Democratic State Committee has
declared that the County Executive Com
mittee shall prepare and furnish a list
of qualified and registered voters. The
Executive Committee of this county, act
ing in pursuance Of these instructions, has
undertaken this duty and the statement
of Mr.. Osborne that the committee in
taking steps to purge the registration list
of disqualified voters, is guilty OF a
shameless attempt to steal is unwarrant-
ed and to say the least is in bad taste.

every member of the committee in saying

have seen fit to use the language as
cribed to him. The telegram published by
Mr.. Osborne and addressed to Mr.. du-
Bienon, makes an erroneous statement OF
fact in asserting that the committee has
dlsregarded the rules of the state Com
rnittee. On the contrary the rules of the
state Committee have been carefully OBJ
served.

RETURNED TO THEIR HOMES.
Two Country Girls who Had No
business In Town.

Otelia Strickland and Susie Stewart,
two young country girls who said they
were from near Statesboro, applied at the
City Exchange for assistance yesterday,
and were furnished with transportation to
Statesboro.
The girls were very shabbily dressed and
their conversation at the City Exchange
showed them to be very ignorant.
The Strickland girl, who said that she
was fifteen, stated that she was the girl
who was under arrest some time since
for robbing country postoffice in Bull
loch county, when she spent some time in
the Savannah jail She said that she had
no intention of robbing the postoffice, but
that she had seen men going to the house,
putting their hands into a hole and get
ting out whisky and that she wanted
some, too.
The girls said that they came to the
city looking for work, but not having sue
ceeded in finding any they had decided to
return home. They had no money, but
fortunately for them some ore directed
them to the City Exchange With their ig-
norance and apparent lack of moral rail-
ing II was VERY evident that they had no
business in the city, and Mayor Myers
wisely decided that the best thing to be
done was to return them to their homes.

AS MAYOR MYERS VIEWS 1T.
He Does Not Mince Matters In Dis
GUESSING the Situation.

When seen yesterday in reference to the
action of the Executive Committee Mayor
Myers said that he regarded 1t as exceed
ingly unfortunate for the city. Political
differences, he said, which might easily
have been amicably adjusted at the May
primary, have been made impossible Of
adjustment then by the action OF the COM
mittee, and intense bitterness injected into
a campaign which had been previously
lacking The consequences, he said, I'M
less there Is a decided change in tactics on
the part OF the committee. will be that a
contest, which might have been finally dis
posed of on May Is. will be prolonged for
months causing the greatest bitterness
among the citizens, with the practical GER
tainty of disorder and possible bloodshed.
10 say nothing OF. the Injurious effect upon
the business interests OF the community.
The Mayor does not mince matter In
dealing with the situation. As to the ac-
tion OF the majority faction OF the Execu-
tive Committee. he said:

hoped that the majority would use It's pow

done, it means a bitter political fight for
the balance of the year.
In the present strained situation be-
tween the two factions politicians are dis
cussing the conditions which existed in
1894. The two factions had locked horns
in battle royal. District mass meetings
were the rule then, and the results prov
ed very unsatisfactory. Each faction
claimed 20 have the best of it in near
ly every district, and in the Third
district the fight was squarely a draw
1t became evident that no results would
be reached. At the instance of some of
the more conservative citizens on both
sides conference committees were select
ed and conference was held. Much to
the surprise Of the voters generally the
conference had little difficulty in reaching
an agreement which was accepted as sat
isfactory by both sides.
This agreement provided for a general
primary election az the Court House UNI
der the state law regulating such cleo
lions, the arrangements to be the same
as at the state and county elections. Each
side was to have two managers at each
ballot box, with the provision that no one
holding any office, state, municipal or fed
eral should serve as a manager. All
qualified, registered white voters of the
county were to be entitled to vote and the
only test of voters democracy was to
be his support of the nominees of the
party at the most recent state and ma
tional elections.
The members of the Conference Commit
tee who brought about this agreement
were Messrs. Samuel B., Adams, George
w. Owens, T. D. Rockwell, Pope Bar
row, w. w. Osborne, M. A. O'Byrne, A.
N. Manucy, Walter C. Hartridge, Charles
F. Prendergast, r. G. duBignon, j. S.
Collins, W. w. Starr and w. G. Cam.
The primary held under this agreement
was not only the most orderly, but was
generally admitted to be the fairest cleo
tion Of any kind held in the county in
years. The results could hardly be said
to have been satisfactory to both sides. as
il was a clean sweep for Che Citizens
ticket
OF the thirteen members of the Confer
ence Committee Mr.. Rockwell has re-
moved from the city and Mr.. Manucy
has died. 1t might be a happy solution.
Of the present difficulty to call upon the
eleven remaining members of the commit
zee TO get together and prepare for an
other primary.

these weedy grasses can hurt the alfalfa.
Foxtail and crab. grass are ANIMALS, while
alfalfa is perennial that can crowd
these weeds to death. I have heard
farmers complain that the foxtail was
running their alfalfa. think all cases
of this kind were caused by overpastur-
ing the alfalfa, or by some other injury.
When my alfalfa has obtained firm
foothold upon the ground, will let any
farmer who wishes to try the expert
ment SOW ton of foxtail seed per acre
on my alfalfa meadow and disk it in
thoroughly. I have no fear that the
alfalfa would be injured.
"The use of the disk harrow is great
advantage to an uneven stand of alfalfa.
This causes the roots and crowns to
become thicker in diameter and more
vigorous. Wherever the disk cuts or
bruises the crown many new buds are
formed, and thus the number of shoots
is materially increased"
