GEORGIA STATESMEN ARE FIG.
uRING ON THE sPEAkERsHiP
OF THE NEXT LEGISLATURE
MANY WANT 1T.
LOCAL OPTION IS TO HAVE A
PROMINENT PLACE IN THE
DECLARATION - ELLIS COULD
HAVE BEEN SPEAKER.

Atlanta, June 19.-Within the last
few days there has been quite
sprinkling of state politicians in the
city, among them ex-senator Sim
Blalock. ex-senator ]. l.. Hayes, ex,
Senator Cam. Representatives Steed
of Tylor. Miller of Muscogee, George
Of Morgan. Morris of Cobb and 9TH
ers. II
Messrs. Steed. George and Morris
are candidates for the speakership of
the house, and they are making a Wig
orous but friendly campaign for the
Office.
Mr.. Miller Of Muscogee says that In
Inia opinion Mr.. Ellis of Bibb would
have been the speaker mad ne been
elected to the house. and he thinks
that the people of Bibb county acted
very unwisaiy In allowing him to be
defeated. He has no idea where Mr.
Ellis supporters will now go, but s
of the opinion that they will be diy
vided out among the other candis
dates.
Mr.. Ellis would nave received the
three votes from Fulton had he been
elected to the house.
The politicians who are mere and
those who have been in Atlanta recent
ly have been discussing the character
Of Tho pIatfor,,, tbot ,,;lI 10 odontod
by the state convention. There seems
to be practically a unanimous opin-
ion among them that local option
plank should be placed in the plat
form and put there so that it will re-
main there for all time to come.
One OF them sad this morning: II
want to see the prohibition question
settled in this way so tnat when a
candidate runs for office hereafter he
will nave to run on a platform with
local option in it."
This same authority said. also:
| And | want to see the conven-
tion come out square and refuse to
indorse the Kansas City platform, and
the principlea contained in it. The
platform adopted at the last national
convention contained lot of issues
that are now dead and were practi-
cally dead when adopted. We nave
lost two national campaigns trying to
force Bryan and '16-to-1' on the peo4
pie, and | am opposed to any more
nonsense on this line. Let us set
aside dead issues and put live ones
into the platform, issues that mean
something and will meet the views of
the people. | see that one or two
states recently in convention have
Endorsed the Kansas City platform.
and nope that Georgia will not make
the same mistake"

an article under the headline ITO Ex.
anime City's Books1 purporting to
he an account Of what transpired at a
meeting Of this body held Tuesday
June nth which said article misrep-
resents what did occur at said meet,
ing and is calculated to mislead the
public
And whereas. it is stated in said
article that ut was agreed to EN-
ploy an expert accountant to make a
thorough check Of tine accounts Of
City Treasurer Geo II. Smith" and
as matter Of fact, no such agree

And whereas, it is further stated in
said article that "at meeting held
some time a8so a resolution was adopt-
ed appropriating a sum not exceeding
$25oo0, but for some reason the res
olution was never put into effect and
at the meeting held Tuesday it was
unanimously decided to employ an ac.

SAYS HIS TIME IS UP
Capt. Alexander Refuses to Release
Him, HOwever-Interestin
Legal Question Involved.

Charles Tibbitts, veteran Of the Phil
1ppine campaign, now in the Hennepin
Jail intends to raise row because Cap
tain Alexander won't let him out. lib
bits says that his term expires to-day,
the same opinion he wants orders from
tn poper authorities. A writ Of habeas
corpus will be served on the jailor.
Tibbetts, who is we'll connected in Mile
Laos county, became involved in row
with his uncle at Princeton and struck
him. His arrest, trial and sentence of
ninety days followed and Tibbetts was
committed. His term began Nov 26
but after serving two days he was re-
leased with instructions to behave. He
went in the woods and the incident was
forgotten until the holidays when Tib-
belts returned to secure some men and
engaged in the seasons festivities to such
en- extent that the authorities locked him
up again. He was brought to Minneapo-
lis and lodged in the Hennepin county
Jail Jan. e.
Now he has actually been in Jail only
81 days, but he insists that his term OF
Imprisonment began on Nov. 26 and that
the ninety days are all up. His conten-
ton is that the authorities cannot give
him an intermittent sentence, hauline
him into Jail and letting him out again
whenever the fancy seizes them It is
believed that he will win. Had he not
been placed in Jail at all after his con-
viction, but had sentence been suspended
during good behavior the case would have
presented an entirely different aspect

HOW ABOUT GRADES?
Question Likely to Arise Regard
ing B., c. r. 3 N. Terminals.
BUSY STREETS WILL BE CROSSED
At the Same Time There Are Some
COEent Arguments Against
Lowering Tracks.

The filing OF the terminal plans OF the
Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern with
the city Is awaited with interest IN ot1clal
and business circles.
1t will probably reopen the old question
of the lowering of all railway tracks IN
South Minneapolis.
The new road purposes to come into
the city over the Milwaukee tracks and
to locate it's terminals on the four DOCKS
between Fourth and Fifth streets 5 ana
Eighth and Twelfth avenues.
In good time the company will petition
for the right to cross Ninth, Tenth and
Eleventh avenues with spur tracks, and
undoubtedly in each instance at grade.
While this will appeal to the persist
ent aldermanic opponents of all such priv
1legeS to railway companies as being a
very serious question in itself, especially
in view Of the latter day increase OF busl-
ness and traffic in that section, 1t is pref
ty certain to suggest besides the timeli-
ness of taking definite action in the mat
ter Of the general lowering OF tracks all
through the South Minneapolis district.
1t Is pointed out that already, with the
present traffic the Milwaukee road.
Is being impeded. There is hardly a
Ave minutes In the day, business men in
that section say, that there is not long
string of vehicles tied up at the Third
street crossing waiting for freight trains
to get out Of the way.
Business men in that Vicinity are
stirred up over the outlook and they
promise that at the proper time they will
put their protests before the city council
and insist that their interests be con-
Sidered.
