OGEECHEE CANAL
President Egan Notified That Centrafs Land Most Be
Pot IN Sanitary Condition IN IS Days.

Unless the Ogeechee canal is put in
sanitary condition within fifteen
days the Dry Culture Department Of
the city will do the work necessary and
the Central of Georgia Railway Com
pany will foot the bill.
President John NJ. Egan of the rail-
way company was notified yesterday
that the company must put the canal
in sanitary condition within fifteen
days and his attention was called to
Sections S14 and S15 of MacDonelrs
Code. Frequent complaint as to the
condition of the canal has been made
by residents of the West Side.
1t is asserted that there is a rank
vegetation in the basin and that water
that collects in the canal stagnates.
The banks of the canal are higher than
the surrounding country and it is con-
tended by the city that the most feast
BILE plan is to fill the canal up. 1t is
not known how the railway company
will look a this suggestion and the
only thing that the Mayor insists up
on is that the land owned by the rail-
road be put in a sanitary condition.
Section S14 of MacDOnelPs Code says:
ut shall be the duty of the inspector
of dry culture from time to time to

But the catch continued to excite
admiration in tine second boat, and not
being able to locate the famous drops

Daniels Majority over SaffoId
Proved to BE Only AZ.
Swainsboro, Ga, June 1.-THE cleo
ton for Representative in Emanuel
county yesterday passed off very quiet
ly, with the exception of a few attempt
ed fisticuffs in Swainsboro between
friends of both candidates. Up until
last night it was thought that Daniels
majority over Saffold would be at least
$50, but the official count this morning
gives him a majority of only AZ. The
race, therefore. was a very close one,
and brought unexpected developments
in some country precincts where Dan
iel's friends claimed that he would have
majorities, as several of them went for
Saffold.
