PROGRESS OF SUGAR INQUIRY.
BUYER Rionda's views on Bill rasse"
by the House.

by the House.
Washington. May 15.-Emanuel III
onda. raw sugar buyer, was witness
before the senate committee on reia-
t,ons with Cuba. He said his firm had
contracts with many Cuban planta,
tons for their sugar and had aoVahcee
money to planters. If the planters SOU
to any one else, the firm would get a
commission. The bill passed oy tne
house would wipe out the countervail-
ing duty, be said, and would tend TO
stop sugar refining in this country.
Germany would be the sugar producer
Of the world, and Cuba, Porto RICO anu
Hawaiian sugar would be injured:
Howard G. Leavitt, president OF the
Standard Beet Sugar company OF Lea.
Wit Neb. said the refiners received all
the benefit Of the countervailing duty
and would receive all the benent OF
concessions to Cuba. He thought INT
effect of the action Of the Brussels con
ference would be to restore norma
conditions in sugar producing, whlcl
would benefit Cuba. England woul'
begin to refine again and make a mar
ket for Cuban sugar.

Pittsburg, May 15.-The casualty list
resulting from Mondays disaster at
Sheridan continues to grow. Two more
deaths are reported-Albert Berry, aged
ten years, and Conrad Flick, aged forty
three years-sweling the death list to
twenty-six, and it is believed this will
be increased to forty before the last
reports are received from the hospitals
and homes where the stricken victims
are lying.
The number of injured is constantly
increasing, and the known list now ex-
ceeds $50. Many. however, are not Sc
rious. Six houses were totally de-
stroyed by the explosions, and it is es
timated that 1900 other buildings were
damaged. The property loss is placed
at $175,OOO.
Traces of the wreck in the Panhandle
wards at Sheridan are rapidly disap
nearing. and soon there will be prac

age-that time in a girls life
when she has all the beauties
of womanhood without the

But here and there even
among school girls appear
pale drawn faces-a dizziness
and lack of freshness which
tells a plain story of thin blood
Now this is not right. But

Judge Griggs Can't Deliver Lit

The Cuthber eral-Enterprise, in
it's last issue. printed the following
item of local interest:
"The many friends of Congressman
Griggs and of Bethel Male College re-
greet that he will not be able to fill
his engagement to deliver the literary
address next Wednesday. When
Judge Griggs accepted the invitation
the date then set for the address was
the 18th, but as has already been stat
ed in these columns President Reese
changed the date of his commence
ment in order that there would be no
conflict with the exercises of Andrew
college. This change put Bethels ex-
ercises one week earlier, and Judge
Griggs has written Mr.. Reese that it
will be impossible for him to come
at that time, as he has an engagement
to speak in Kansas on that day as the
chairman of the democratic congress
siOnal committee"

The committee appointed by the

towards Dawson's 100000 cotton fac
tory has 100000 in sight.
Messrs. W. H. Davis, A. J. Baldwin
and other members of the committee
are still actively a work, and feel very
much encouraged over the outlook at
present. Several who have not yet
signifed their intention of taking
stock are expected to do so, and it will
not be surprising if the list is consid-
erably swelled within the next few
days. The people of the town and
county are awakened to the fact that
not only does Dawson need cotton
factory but that it is going to be
built, and in this case the old saw
comes in right handily:

DR., JOHNSON SPEAKS.
Candidate for State School Com :
missioner Here Saturday.

Hon. Mark Johnson of Milledgeville,
candidate for state school commission.
er. spoke to a crowd of about forty
persons at the court house, in Dawson
Saturday afternoon. His small audi
ence was due to the fact that his COM
ing had been known only few hours
previous to his arrival.
DR.. Johnson spoke about an hour,
and stated some interesting facts and
figures. The first part of his speech
was devoted to extravaganza practlced
10 the administration or the office OF
state school commissioner. He said
that with an annual expenditure of
$l,6O0,0O0 only IS per cent of Georgia.
school population is attending school,
when as a matter of fact the entire
school population might attend and
money still be saved from that 81
100000
In discussing state uniformity OF
text books DR.. Johnson said that this
item costs this state 48 per cent. more
thanit does those states that have state
uniformity. The speaker also favored
pro rata division of the state school
fund among the whites and blacks,
according to the amount of taxes
paid by the two races. Some had
claimed that this was unconstitutional,
but it had been tried in 10 counties OF
the state, he said, and had proved
satisfactory and success. This, he
said, is the best evidence that it can be
done
DR.. Johnson is in favor of histories
by southern authors for use in south
ern schools He is not willing that
the youth of the south should imbibe
their ideas with events connected
with the civil war from histories
written by men who are opposed to
the South's course at that time, and
who are prejudiced against the
south.
DR.. Johnson was listened to with
close attention. He has many friends
in Dawson and Terrell county, and
will make good show in the forth
coming primary.

A PLEA FOR EDUCATION.
Saws White Girls Are HOeing and
Flowing in Georgia.

EDITOR NEWS: Allow me space to
speak in behalf of the State Normal
School of Georgia, it's work and need
of better equipment. There are fif-
teen teachers in the faculty and only
four small recitation rooms. We are
very much in need of a commodious,
we'll equipped college building, and
this building we must have. Mr..
George Foster Peabody has given US
$4,000 on condition that the legisla-
ture give $25, 900, which will then give
us a $35, 900 building-iust what we so
much need. The legislature has
never given US but $1,000 all told for
building purposes.
The purpose of the Normal School
is to train teachers so they can go out
and teach the children of Georgia.
There are forty-six students who have
access to scholarships now, and when
the Southern Board of Education met
in Athens they gave fifty more schol-
arships, and furthermore said, Just
as many as the people of Georgia will
give we will give that many more. "
People of Georgia. just think of what
an opportunity! If we can get fifty
scholarships that means fifty % ore
added to it by the board.
There must be something done to
help the common schools. just think
of Georgia girls actually blowing and
hoeing alongside of negroes. 1t is
outrageous when it could be helped to
some extent by the right kind of edu-
cation.
Citizens of Terrell county, you can
do something to help better the state
of affairs in Georgia. 1t only takes
S75 per year to send one student to
this school one year, and they can fin
ish in three years with good college
education and then be prepared to go
out in the country and teach or do
some other noble work.
Now, | hope you all will consider
this and do something to help along
the good work. Let us have eight
months each year of schooling for the
children. Give those over school age
scholarship to this school, where
they will acquire more knowledge and
I be of greater service to the children
of Georgia. LIZZIE DYER.
