Mrs. Electra M. Eggleston is the sec ond woman in Massachusetts to be nominated for State Representative, having been chosen by the Prohibition tsts of the First Hampshire District. The first woman so named was Mrs. Fanny Clary of Williamsburg. At that time many outside the Prohibition Par ty looked on the matter as a joke. be- cause they believed that even if she was elected she could not be enrolled in the House of Representative. The question was referred to the Attorney General of Massachusetts for decision, and he ruled that there is nothing to prevent a woman becoming member of the House of Representatives if she wins an election.

DAWSON'S HEALTH RECORD.
Official Figures Show Mortality Rate
Is One of the Very Smallest
in the State.

DR.. ]. G. Dean, who is member of
the council committee on health and
sanitation, has just completed the COM
pilation of figures which show Daw-
sons death rate to be among the small
est in the state.
There we're but twelve deaths among
the white population of the city in
1903. One half of these were among
babies, and not in single instance was
there death due to local causes. The
mortality rate among whites as thus
shown was only seven-tenths OF one
per cent.
This is one of the best showings in
the matter of health that can be made
by any town IN the state. Dawson's
pure artesian water and good sanitary
condition are largely responsible for
this.

NO WHERE TO WET WHISTLE
THE CITY COUNCIL FILINGS THE CAR
RE NATION RATCHET.
The Chief of Police Instructed TO RigidIy
Enforce Ordinance Prohibiting
Rooms for Drinking Beer.

The city council has decreed that all
places .for beer drinking must go out
of business in Dawson.
There has long been an ordinance
prohibiting the operation OF places of
this kind in the city, but heretofore
the council has1not seen fit to insist
upon its rigid enforcement.
On Monday, however, the fathers
reached conclusion that they wanted
this ordinance strictly carried out, and
instructed the chief of police to insist
upon the immediate discontinuance OF
the establishments in question. The
edict of the council was implicitly fol-
lowed by the police force, and will
continue to be so.
The places in question have been
conducted to give individuals rooms to
which they might go and send for beer
and there drink it, the only remunera-
tion TO the prOprietors being the
empty bottles.

500 AN ACRE FOR TERRELL COUNTY LAND
Sells His Farmsto Messrs. J. r. Mercer and
and Frank Nasworthy for a Big Sum.

This price beats all previous records
in the sale of Terrell county land,
and is perhaps the largest sum per
acre ever paid for farming property in
this section of the state.
Lands in Terrell county are con-
stantly enhancing in value, and $50
per acre is now the average price paid
for them. Terrell holds the record as
the banner agricultural county of the
state, and though it's farms command
high purchase prices those who secure
them have magnificent Investments.

ENCAMPMENT CLOSES.
Dawson Guards Spent Several
Nights on Field.

The Dawson Guards broke camp
Friday morning, after spending four
nights in field service. They were
ordered out for encampmeut Monday
afternoon by Captain Wilkinson, and
they pitched tents in the large OAK
grove on the corner of College and
Crawford stre(ts. Very little day
practice was had, but for four nights
the boys got down to hard work in the
camp.
The experience was worth great
deal to them. They became well
versed in the pitching of tents, guard
duty and other field tactics. The en-
campment was held to drill the COM
pany in anticipation of the Manassas
manoeuvers, and the training will be
SHOWN to be of much benefit when they
enter upon their duties in Virginia.

ARE ELECTORS ELIGIBLE 5?
CHAIRMAN YE0MANS CALLS MEETING
OF STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
Will Assemble in Atlanta Saturday to In
vestigate Eligibility of the Georgia
Presidential Electors.

The question as 70 whether any OF
the democratic electors for president
and vice president of the United
States, chosen by the state convention,
are disqualified to hold such Office will
be taken up for consideration by the
state democratic executive committee
at special meeting called by Chair.
man M. j. Yeomans to be held in At
lanta next Saturday, August q.
1t is considered important that in
the coming presidential election there
should be no doubt whatever as to the
qualification of the electors, for it may
be the election will be close one in
which one or two electoral votes
would be of great value.
1t is for this reason that the commit
tee, after making inquiry of the varl-
GUS electors, has determined to hold a
meeting to investigate the qualitca-
tions of certain of those chosen by the
convention.
The United States law prohibits any
person who holds Office of any kind
under the United States government
from being an elector. This has been
construed to mean even national bank
directors, and in all cases this year
they have been ruled out,
But now the state law comes in for
consideration. 1t has been held Oy the
supreme court that an elector is state
officer, and that there is law to the
effect that no person shall hold two
state Offices. There are several of the
democratic electors who hold minor
positions which are considered by
some to be state offices, and the ques-
ton is whether they can hold these
positions and also be electors.
Chairman Yeomans has requested
all of the electors about whose qualiti-
cation there is any doubt TO be IN
Atlanta on the occasion of the meeting
of the committee.
