MATTERS IN COLQUITT.
Prohibition Orgauization-PeOna e
Charges-Other Matters.


Moultrie. Ga, July PA prohibition
mass meeting was held here yesterday
at which organization was perfected
for the campaign that is now on. Com
mittees were chosen from every us
trict in the county TO carry on the
work and they promise to keep pussy
from now until the election on aug.
IL Judge w. A. Covington OF MouI-
trie was made county chairman, ana
will give direction to the campaign
The whisky men are also lining up
and IL is expected that warm cam
paign is ahead. 1t is also anticipated
that the contest will be very close.
The last prohibition election was held
in the county nearly five years ago,
and the majority for the vets at that
time was only thirty-five. Since that
time Moultrie has become dry al mu-
nicipal election, and whisky is now
only sold at Doerun.
If the allegations set out in suit
recently filed in the City Court here
be proven, then a pretty ugly case OF
peOnage will have been unearthed IN
the county. A we'll known negro woln-
an of Moultrie and her boy, of Moul-
trie, are the plaintiffs to a suit to re-
cover or obtain wages for nineteen
months service on the farm of a citizen
of the county belonging to prominent
family 1t is charged in the suit that
the boy was forcibly worked against
his and his mothers wishes, and that
he was secretly kept. so that all at
tempts made by the mother to secure
his release failed. The sheriff had to
be sent for the boy several times be-
fore he could be gotten. TIL suit is
filed by a leading law Arm of Moul-
trie. and y the claims of their clients
can be - tatlished in the courts the
case may 81 ~elIen to the federal
courts.
The Georgia Northern Railroad an
nounoes that it will build line from
Moultrie to Hartsield, in the western
part of this county. The distance Is
about twelve miles and the route is
through one Of the finest bodies of tim
Der now remaining In the state. 1t Is
also one of the finest farm sections
of South Georgia. The road made a
proposition to build a line there and
operate daily trains if the citizens of
the community would assist them to
the extent of furnishing the right-of-
way and the crossties. The money has
been raised, and the work will begin
in a short time.

eight 10-cent baskets strung on q

NEARBY and when they saw the man

The man wasn't hurt-only his feel

of course. The man turned to the

CONTRACTS.
Littauer's Case Goes to Attorney
General.


ner
WASHINGTON. Aug. 4.-The inves-
tigation of the Lyon-Littauer glove
contracts with the United States gov
eminent has been turned over to the
department of justice.
Only one official in the entire war de-
partment has taken it upon himself to
say that Lucius \. Littauer, the most
intimate friend of the president, has
violated the laws of the nation.
This official is Judge Advocate Gen
eral Davis. He makes this unequivocal
assertion:
"A case falling within the prohibition
of the statute is clearly shown in the
testimony, which, in the opinion of this
office. charges the department with the
performance of the duty set forth in
section 3.739 of the revised statutes; and
it therefore recommended that a de-
mand be made by the quartermaster
general on the firm of Littauer Bros.
for the repayment of whatever sum is
found to have been paid in considera-
ton of the contract of Dec. Z, 1898,
with f. r. Lyon. as extended. in ac-
cOrdance with its terms, by the quar-
termaster's department"
This became known when Secretary
Root made public all the papers in the
inv estigation into the remarkable glov4
contract scandal.

MAY BE LONG STRIKE.
Coal Miners Strike without Unions
Sanction.

Sanction.
WILKESBARRE. Pa. Aug. 4.-The
strike at the Red Ash c~olliery may de-
velop into a protracted struggle. The
miners have been out for twelve days,
and the leaders of the United Mine
Workers have informed them that they
could not and would not sanction their
course, and for that reason they could
not give them any support or order
them to return to work under the ex-
listing circumstances.
Notwithstanding this state of affairs
the strikers refuse to return to work,
and they propose to continue the strike
upon their own responsibility. The
strikers have made an official state
ment in which they recite their alleged
grievances. They ask for the reinstate-
ment of an employee who was dis
charged by a mine boss without cause,
as they claim. About 600 men are in
volved in the strike.
