the late Hon. G. S. Rountree, senator
from the Sixteenth district The cleo
ton will be ordered BIZ the ordinaries

Former Gov. Allen d. Gambler who
is engaged i'm compiling the colonial
records of the state under an act of
the Legislature, has written to the
United States ambassador at the Court
of st. James, asking If permission can
be secured to copy the minutes of the
Common Council of the Trustees of the
Colony of Georgia, covering a period
from 1873 TO 1883. and which contain a
great deal of valuable information rel
ative 10 the history of Georgia. Geor-
gia formerly owned a copy of these

fire while IN the custody of professor

Political Oyster Roast.
Col. Harry Fisher of Coweta coun-
ty, gave an oyster roast on his farm
near Newman to-day to a number of
state house officials, and well known
politicians. Gov. Terrell, in whose hon
or it was to have been given, could
not attend on account of his recent
sickness, his physicians advising him
to remain at home.
Among those who went were Treas
urer Park, Col. o. b. Stevens, Capt r..
+. Wright, Secretary of State Phil
Cook and Pension Commissioner j. w.
Lindsey. Members of the Legislature
who attended were Messrs. Cam of
Chatham, Steed of Tylor, Wilson of
Clay, Davis of Merriwether, McCurry
Of Hart and Flynt of Spalding. All
said they had a good time, but assert
ed positively that there was no politi-
! cal Significance attached to the gath
ering.
Failed to File Statements.
AS n result of their failure to file
with Gov. Terrell their semi-annual
statements within sixty days from Jan.
1, as required by law, five of the in
surance companies which have been
doing business in Georgia, are now
barred from doing further business in
the state for a period of one year. The
five companies which failed to file their
statements are: The Farmers Mutual
Fire Insurance Company of Fort
Gaines, Ga, the Mercantile Mutual
Fire Insurance Company, of Provi-
dence, the Georgia Sick and
Accident Association of Atlanta
the Georgia Relief Association Of Col
umbus, and the American Credit In
demnity Company of New York.
The chances are that these compa-
MES have either decided to stop doing
business in Georgia, or have merged
their business into other companies.

dian public are far more bitter against
the British government than against
the Americans. The following inter-
view from one of the Canadians con-
nected with the case illustrates their
attitude toward the award. alt is the
hardest blow the imperial tie has yet
received. The place Lord Alvestone
filled was clearly that of agent for the
British government. 1t was shock
to the Canadian people to know that
notwithstanding all the professions of
friendship and sympathy the solemn
formalities of the international court
have simply been used for the purpose
OF handing over Canadian territory to
the United States. Canada must now
face the fact that when imperial inter.
est OF friendships require it, her terri
tory may be handed over without the
slightest hesitation. This marks a
most serious epoch in the relation be-
tween Canada and the mother country"
The Canadian commissioners are es-
pecially bitter over the acquisition by
the United States of the two outer
most of the four islands off the mouth
of the Portland Canal. They give as
their reason the extreme strategic
value OF the islands. However they
might know that in a conflict between
the United States and Canada, the
strategic value of these or any other
islands would have an infinitesimal in
fuence on the outcome of the struggle.
