JUDGE TURNER DENIES REPORT.

Has No Intention of Resigning
Chnirmansbip of Prison BORrd.
Atlanta, Dec. 2.-Judge Joseph S.
Turner, chairman of the Prison Com
mission. and his colleagues on the
board, are displeased over the report
that has been sent over the state to
the effect that he expected to resign
for the purpose of entering the race
for the judgeship of the Ocmulgee cir
cult, and they are wondering where
II could have originated. When asked
about the matter Judge Turner said
there was no truth whatever in the
report that he would resign, nor has
he ever contemplated becoming can
didate for judge of the Ocmulgee cir
cult. What he would do in 1904 he
could not say, as that is a long way
off. but one thing was certain, he said,
and that is the report that he would
resign is wholly unfounded.

but Is Undecided.

Atlanta, Dec. Gov. Gambler may
veto the dispensary bill. 1t was re-
ported all around the Capitol to-day

him are against the bill. He thinks it
a bad bill, but has not decided what
he will do.
The bill reached him from the Sen
ate to-day, and he has until Saturday
to consider 1t.
Among those who called on him to-
day were Mrs. Marie Louise Myrick of
Amercus, who urged him to sign It..
She said Sumter county was anxious
for it. Also there was Mrs. Jennie
Hart Sibley of Union Point, president
of the Georgia w. c. T. u, who told
the Governor that the eyes of the 600,-
900 wearers of the white ribbon were
upon him, and all praying that he
would veto the measure.
