The commissioners say they be-
lieve that next year the county will
be able, if the people so desire, to
buy and install without imposing
any tax complete road working
outfit, including all necessary ma
chlnery and equipment of every de-
scription. This would be another
step forward for Terrell county.
Good roads and better roads are
desirable and beneficial.
Terrell county's record as mon
ey maker is unprecedented in the
history of the state, and probably OF
the south; at any rate, if there Is
another county in the south which
has no necessity for such thing as
taxation The News has failed to
catch the name. This state of pros
perity is a result of the profits arts
ing from the operation of the dis
pensary system in the county and
the wise and conservative manage
ment of the county's affairs by the
board of county commissioners.

THE HERALD'S MISTAKE.
An Unjust Criticism of Commits
SiOner Stevens.

The Albany Herald reproduces from
an exchange d paragraph saying that
Commissioners of Agriculture Stevens
has purchased a palatlal residence on
.CapitOl avenue in Atlanta and VIII
hereafter make that city his home,
and comments on it as follows
"And this makes u5 feel like swear
ing off from ever tearing our shirt
irving to get another south Georgia
man elected to state office. 10 elect
one means to lose him. We did think
shat Mr.. Stevens-plain, sensi bic lobe
Stevens-would stick to south Georgia,
and he swore IN ad vance that he would,
but it seems that he has gone the
way of all the rest who have ever been
elected to state office from this part
OF the state-becOme AtlantalZed.
And he has bought him home on
syapitol avenue, too Well, it's a good
1bing for him that it wasn't on Peach
1ree street, among the 400. Then his
south Georgia friends would feel like
he had been lost to them, sure
enough.
The Herald speaks before thinking
the proverbial three times, and is
thou htlessly unjust in It's criticism.
Mr.. Stevens is still citizen OF Daw-
son. He registers and votes IN Ter
rell county, and has never claimed any
other place than Dawson as his home,
aud has merely purchased the res
5dence in Atlanta for the conven'
fence of himself and family during his
Official stay in the state capital, having
sold his home in Griffin.
The News believes the Herald would
not Intentionally do MIR. Stevens an in
Justice, and is glad to be able to enter
a correction. Mr.. Stevens is. as ever,
a true and loyal south Georgian, Ter

Again for the second successive
year-there will be no county tax to
pay in Terrell county.
This was decided at the regular
monthly meeting of the board OF
county commissioners yesterday.
The same condition of affairs pre-
vailed last year, and Terrell made
herself famous throughout the state
in fact, throughout the south
because of the fact that no county
tax was levied. Now come the
county commissioners and say that
for the second successive year
there's nothing doing so far as
taxation Is concerned.
The county treasury already con
tains $4,000. About five or six
thousand more are expected to drop
in before the close Of the year, and
as the annual expenses are only
about $4,000 1t may readily be
seen why no taxation is necessary.

MR.. MERGERS BILL.
He Wishes Salary of Mayor of
Dawson Reduced from $500
to $500 Per Annum.

In this issue of The News notice is
given that there will be introduced at
the approaching session of the Geor-
gia legislature bill to reduce the sal
airy of the mayor of Dawson from $500
to $500 per annum.
The bill will be introduced at the
instance of Mayor-elect J. r.. Mercer in
the interest of economy. Mr.. Mercer
believes that ,the salary attached to
the Office is too large under the cir
cumstsnces, therefore his desire for
reduction.
1t will be remembered that at one
time in the past the mayors salary
was $500, it being raised to $500, where
it has stood for a number of years.

Strikers Resuming Work.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, June 13.-The work
OF the strikers in attempting to bring out
all men who are still in the employ of the
coal companies goes steadily on. Their cam
paigns against the engineers, firemen and
pumpmen is nearly over, most of these
men being out and the union is now paying
more attention to the fire bosses, clerks and
others who have taken the places of those
who quit. Pressure is being brought to bear
on them in every possible way. Quite d
number of the fire bosses throughout the re-
gion have already stopped work. because
they had been asked to take the strikers
places and at meeting held here this aft
ernoon about a dozen more consented to
join the strikers. The labor leaders hope to
have more out by Monday. The company
officials are aware of the attack on the fire
bosses and they are making effort to hold
them.
The miners union is now planning TO
expel from the organization all engineers,
firemen and pumpmen who have not yet
obeyed the strike order. They have been
given until tomorrow night to join the
strikers and if they do not quit they will
be expelled and their names published
throughout the region as unfair" work.
men. The miners leaders, as a rule, will
not talk on the matter of boycotting, but
the rank and file of the strikers openly
admit that they try 10 boycott all men
whom they look upon as being unfair
workers.
For the first time this week there was
no demonstration near the Lehigh Val
ley Companys William A. colliery at Dur
yea to-day. The efforts of the strike lead
ers TO have the men keep the peace have
been successful. ar-i there was no gather
ing of idlers at tn colliery TO annoy the
workmen. The Lehigh Valley Company has
followed a policy of keeping it's guards in
the background so as to avoid any serious
clash, but the attempted shooting Of its di-
vision superintendent on Wednesday night
has caused it TO change it's method Yes
terday and last night extra coal and iron
police were sent to the colliery, and they
were distributed around the mine in con-

ton TO take no more chances of having its
employees injured.

any way changed the situation. President
