AUGUSTA IN TROUBLE
OVER CITY PRINTING
Cabaniss and LoyIess Threw Over the Low.Priced
Work of the Contract.

Augusta, July 13.-The city printer is
just now the subject of animated dis
cussion in Augusta. Formerly the city
printer used to be a newspaper ana
has always been the Augusta Chron-
icle. When Hon. Patrick Walsh was
elected Mayor. in order to relieve him
from dealing with his own newspaper
as city organ, the change was made of
electing an individual as city printer.
At the present time E. B. Hook is city
printer of Augusta.
Some years ago in pursuit of the an
tagonism between their publishers and
the competitive policy that has always
obtained between the Chronicle and the
Augusta Herald. the price of the CITY
printing was cut down to $500 a year.
and for several years past the Chron-
icte has been doing about $1,000 worth
of work each year for the city for the
city printers salary Of $500.
But when there was sent round from
the Mayors office the list of registered
voters of the city of Augusta To he
published by the Chronicle, the new
owners of the paper, Messrs. Cabaniss
& Loyless, declined to do the work
except at their regular rates. They
say the city of Augusta is no pauper
and Is entirely able to pay fair prices
for its work, and unless it is willing
to do SO, the Chronicle does not desire
it.
The city printer, Mr.. Hook. was IN.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-07-14

From the New York Press.
Have you seen a woman on a street
car or train take two white mice out
of an airfilled reticule, caress them
fondly and then kiss them? It's fact.
Saw one of them on a Pennsylvania
train the other day. Her husband was
with her, but the wee small pets oc-
Coupled all her attention. The reticule
had little air openings In the sides,
with rubber tube attachment. through
which occasionally fresh air was blown,
for the day was sultry and wee mousie
might suffocate. Hubby" was utilized
to blow in the air. Ye godsl He look
ed as such a husband might be consid-
cred to be-henpecked and thoroughly
suddued. Occasionally the woman
would open the reticule, when the little
white mice would Chamber out over
the top. Is this to be a new fad? What
next? why don't such women have
babies on which to spend their affec-
ton?

formed of the refusal of the Chronicle
to publish the list, and asked what he
intended to do about it. He replied
that when elected printer he was presi-
dent of the Chronicle Company, and
its publisher could control it's columns;
that recently the paper had been sold,
and being no longer in a position 20
make publication of the city's ordi-
nances, etc, he rendered his resigna-
ton as city printer.
1t so happens that no other office in
the city is equipped for handling the
registry list in the time that inter-
venes before the election on Thursday,
than the Chronicle, and after various
efforts to have it done in some other
way, the White Primary Executive
Committee has been forced to raise
the money to have it done in the Chron-
icle job Office at the rate demanded by
Messrs. Cabaniss and Loyless.
Contention is made by them that the
law makes no requirement for the
newspaper publication of a primary
election registry list, and that certain
ly the city printer, the city, nor any
one else, has any right to demand
work done in their job Office for less
money than they are willing to take.
The Mayor has notified Mr.. Hook
that his resignation win be placed be-
fore the next meeting of Council, but
in the meantime he must continue as
city printer until his resignation is ac-
cepted by Council.

WASHINGT0N'S PLEA
For n Better Understanding He
tween Whites and Blacks.


tween Whites and Blacks.
Atlanta, July 1S.-Bool1er T. Wash
ington tonight addressed a large au-
dience in the Peoples Tabernacle the
occasion being the 36th. anniversary
of the First Congregational Church
(colored.) A letter was read from Gov.
Terrell and an address on behalf of
Mayor Howell was given by his pri-
Vate secretary.
Washington spoke in part as fol-
lows:
Every decent white man and negro
in the South is glad that the time will
soon be at an end when a negro will
be popular with his people in proper
ton as he curses the white man; or
when white man can be promoted to
positions of trust and honor in proper
ton as he has been successful in I'M
fairly condemning the negro. Let us
all rather learn a lesson from one of
the greatest of Southerners, Wade
Hampton, of South Carolina, when. on
his dying bed, he uttered the words:
God bless all of my people, white
and black
Il appreciate from the bottom of my
heart the tremendous and trying strain
that is now upon us, and how difficult
1t is for us to make progress under such
circumstances: but 1 believe that the
momentous period through which we
are now passing will draw to our sup
port the good will, the sympathy and
helpful cooperation of larger numbers
OF white men in the South as well as
in the North. if we only exercise due
patience, self-control and courage"

OLIVER SUCCEEDS SANGER.
A New Assistant Secretary OF War
Is Named

\Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 1s-At the
conference to-day between President
Roosevelt and Secretary Root It was
decided to appoint Robert Shaw oliver
OF Albany, N. Y, to be assistant sec
retary of war. vice William c. Sanger,
resigned. Mr.. Sanger has decided to
retire on account of the ill health of
his wife.
Gen. Oliver has had a military ca
reer OF distinction. He served in the
OlVll war as volunteer officer and
subsequently served as an officer of
tne regular army establishment in
Doth the infantry and cavalry branches.
or many years he has been identified
with the National Guard of New York.
Gen. Oliver is engaged in the iron
business and is quite as prominent in
commercial circles as he is in military
affairs
1t has not been decided definitely
When ne will assume his new office, but
as Col. Sanger desires to relinquish
ms duties as soon as possible, the prob
aplltles are that Gen. Oliver Will un-
dertake the task as soon as he can
arrange his business affairs.
In connection with the consideration
OF appointments it is said that the
president has not thought seriously of
naming G. s. Francis of New York as
ambassador to Italy, because, so far as
the President is aware, Ambassador
Meyer has no intention of resigning
from that post.
Secretary Root is still the guest of
President Roosevelt at his home here

row morning. He and the President
