TATTNALL WON'T TAKE
FELONY C0NVlCTS,
other Counties May withdraw Re
quests for Such Labor.

4ACSte AOE SuCh
Atlanta, Oct. 17.-Tattnau county has
officially notified the Prison Commits
sion that it will not take convicts for
work on the public roads. Tattnall
was entitled to eighteen felony convicts
under the apportionment. The reason
assigned for the withdrawal of TAFT
nails application is that the convicts
brought so large an amount and the
expense of working the men would be
so large, that the county feels it would
be more profitable to participate in the
| division of the proceeds for school pur-
poses by taking the cash instead of
convicts.
Tattnall will get over $500 yearly
for school purposes. 1t is reported
that several other counties will with
draw their applications for convicts
since ascertaining the large amount
which will be received by the state for
convict hire.
Hon. w NJ. Toomer of Ware county
stated to-day that the report that 500
conYlcts secured by himself and DR..
| W. b. Handy were for G.. S. Baxter &
90. OF Fargo, was incorrect. He stated,
however that it was possible all or a
part OF these men would go to Baxter
d Co. under some arrangement yet to
be made.
DR.. Handy was general manager for
Baxter & Co., and Mr.. Toomer was
! their general counsel. There was a
perfect understanding between them
and the firm, Mr.. Toomer states, the
only trouble being Baxter & Co. bid
too low. The fifty convicts awarded
to w. E. James of Berrien county have
been transferred by Mr.. James to G.
| V. Gress. These are all Mr.. Gress
Will secure. He is at present work
| ing 100 men.

FUNDS STARTED AT DUBLIN
For a Confederate Monument and
to Move Troup's Remains.

W NcInuInSs
Dublin, Ga, Oct. 1.-THE ladies of
Dublin have gone to work raising
money for the purpose of erecting a
Confederate monument in Dublin, also
for the purpose of having the remains
of the late Gov. George NJ. Troup re-
moved from Rose Mount Cemetery,
Montgomery county, to Dublin. Some
months ago the Young Mems Business
League of Dublin obtained permission
of the nearest relatives of this distin-
guished statesman to have the remains
removed to Dublin, but nothing has
been done to complete the work.
Gov. Troup spent the last years of his
life in Laurens county, and was the
only Governor Laurens ever gave to
the state. He died on his Mitchell plan
tation. in Montgomery county, where
he was visiting at the time, and was
inferred at Rose Mount beside his
brother.
1t is expected that the remains of
Gov. Troup will be removed to Dublin
early in the spring, if not before, and
re-interred in the Court House Square
or in Northview Cemetery.
Next Tuesday night the board of di-
rectors of the Carnegie Free Public
Library will meet for the purpose of
inspecting the plans for the library,
which will be submitted at that time.
A half dozen of the best architests in
the state will submit plans, and it is
expected that the directors will have a
hard time choosing between them. AS
soon as the plans have been selected
the contract for the erection of the
building will be let. The building Will
cost $4,000, and will be erected on a
lot donated by the city, and which is
valued at $1,000.
To-day the exhibit to be made by
I,aurens county at the State Fair was
shipped to Macon. The exhibit will be
made by Laurens county as compli-
ment to Hon. Dudley NJ Hughes.
