THE CITY PR0FITED
BY SALE OF HORSE.
Animal That Was ImpOunded Sold
for SO without Trouble.

for SO without Trouble.
For just $3.50 more than it cost the
city to feed it, the horse found on
West Broad street by the police two
weeks ago, was sold by Marshal Dree-
son at the city pound yesterday morn
ing.
If it had been necessary for the city
to pay extra for advertising the sale,
or for the marshars services money
would have been lost, but as it hap
pened $3.50 was turned into the city
treasury after the department of pub
lie works had been paid for keeping
the animal
The horse showed up in good form,
and the rest of two weeks in the city
lot seemed to have done it world of
good The marshal had no trouble in
keeping the animal on it's feet, and
the keeper of the colored cemetery
promptly paid $40 for the ownerless
horse.
The keeper of the pound reported to
the marshal that the horse had an
enormous appetite, but this fact was
not mentioned when the sale was made.
In the absence of a claimant for the
$1.50 above expenses. the marshal took
the treasurers receipt for the amount

JACKSONVILLE WANTS
THE CANE GROWERS.
Invitation TO Meet There in Hands
of Executive Committee.

Invitation TO Meet There in Hands
of Executive Committee.
Capt D. G. Purse. president Of the
Board of Trade, has just returned from
Jacksonville where he went by invita-
ton of the Jacksonville Board of Trade
10 discuss the holding of the Interstate
Sugar Cane Growers annual conven-
ton there.
The proposition submitted will be
placed before the Executive Committee
of the association, of which Capt. Purse
is chairman az well as president of tile
association. and upon the majority de-
Cision Of the committee Will rest the Sc
lection of the place for holding the con-
vention.
1t is expected that the answers from
the members of the Executive Commit
Tee will be sufficient to determine the
location as well as the date for the con-
Vention.
The cane growers met last year at
Macon. The convention was largely
attended, and was one of the most rep
resentative and important agricultural
gatherings that has ever been held in
the South. 1t is expected that the sec
ond annual meeting will be equally as
largely attended and as productive of
results in the advancement Of the syrup
industry now assuming such large pro-
portions.
The Interstate Cane Growers Asso-
citation Is composed of delegates from
each OF the states of South Carolina,
Georgia, Florida, Alabama. Mississippi,
Louisiana. Texas and Arkansas.
In addition to these delegates, agrl-
cultural associations. commissioners of
agriculture, and all trade bodies are eX-
pected to appoint delegates.
The next time the association meets
in Georgia. Savannah will undoubtedly
have the preference

There are great many taxpayers
who have neglected to pay their bus
mess licenses and to take out their
wagon and dog badges. Unless these
matters are attended to during the
present week the discount of 10 per

payment will not be in force. Not
only will the discount of 10 per cent.
be lost, but double tax will be i'm

CAUGHT IN
THE CORRIDORS

THE reproduction of Gen. Gordon's
home at the st. Louis Exposition is an
excellent idea" said Mr.. ]. B. Scott
of Screven county, at the Pulaski last
night.
This will be a splendid monument
to the man who has done so much for
the state of Georgia and believe that
the suggestion is meeting with favor
in all sections of the state. The mat
ter should be attended to at once,
though, as it is now only few months
until the fair will open. The patri
otto citizens of the Empire State of
the South should certainly not allow
this movement to fall through"
Il have talked with politicians all
over the state and it seems to be a
settled fact that the delegations from
Georgia to the Democratic National
Convention in St. Louis will go there
uninstructed," said Mr.. James Y. Page
of Atlanta at the De Soto last night.
THE leading Democrats of the state
with whom I have talked do not think
it wise to send a delegation to the
convention with instructions to vote
for any particular candidate. Much
depends upon the candidate nominat-
ed by the convention as to whether
the Democratic party is to win in the
coming national contest. While 1t
looks to-day as if Judge Parker is to
be the nominee, things may change
before the date set for the convention.
Judge Parker is by far the most pop
ular candidate mentioned, and l be-
lieve he will be the nominee"
1T is certainly to be hoped that the
Chamber of Commerce will adopt reso-
lutions indorsing the Panama canal
treaty and urging Georgia senators to
vote for it's ratification" said a promi-
nent Savannah business man at the
Pulaski last night
Savannah will derive great benefit
form the opening of the canal and this
city should certainly not be the last
to indorse the treaty. The Legisla-
lures of Louisiana and other South
ern states have Endorsed the pending
treaty, and many of the leading cities
of the South have adopted resolutions
in their City Councils and Chambers
of Commerce. and I believe that Sa-
vannah should lose no time in adopt
ing similar resolutions"

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES.


GAS PLANTS AND ICE PLANTS
are the best industrials now within the
reach of any but the very rich. They
make large profits for their stockhold-
ers and are as safe as any investment
outside of bonds and real estate mort
cages. The profits on the investment
are simply enormous. I have only a
small amount of stock unsubscribed
in the Consumers Ice and Light Com
pany and would like for my friends to
take that before it is too late. We pro-
pose to install a combined gas and ice
plant at Valdosta to cost 500, 900. The
charter from the state and the fran
chise from the city of Valdosta have
both been obtained for twenty years
with privilege of renewal. The invest

tain as any reasonable man could re-
quire. Subscriptions payable in month

Selection of School Trustees.

Auditor Sowell calls attention to the school elections for trustees on the first Saturday in July. On that day the people of each school district are to assemble and elect in their own way three trustees, who will conduct the school of the district. for a year. It is necessary to do this in order to se- cure the districts share of the public funds, which will no longer come through the hands of the county super intendent. =
 The law provides no machinery for this important election. No registra- tlon is required No poll tax receipts need be exhibited. The citizens of each district are to meet and select three trustees, and any informality will be overlooked. Common honesty of neighbor towards neighbor will suf- flee
 No one will call this important elec- tlon The citizens of each district. are expected to meet of their own accord, out of their desire to secure a good school. Informal as the meeting on the first Saturday in July will be, it Is important that it should be held. It must. be held if the district is to receive any public money in the school year. And it must be held on the first Saturday in. July. Don't forget that.
 All householders and freeholders in district are expected to meet and elect three trustees, all of whom must reside in the district, all of whom must be able to read and write. Good men are wanted as trustees. In the states that have long had efficient public schools the best men in the dis trict are selected to act as trustees. and so it should be in this state. It is particularly important that this bus mess be attended to on the first Sat urday in July. It cannot be trans acted on any other day.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-06-22
Fourth of July.

"Other towns In the state are making preparations to celebrate the glorious Fourth and 1t seems to me that 1t is about time for Birmingham to begin to get ready" said citizen last night. "Of course we will have races at the fair grounds and a ball game at the park. There will also be the usual amount of nolse but I think that some steps should be taken to arrange a pro gramme, so that the people will know just exactly how they will be able to spend the day.
 While l do not wish to appear pessi- mistic, I am afraid that the Fourth is not held In such high esteem in Alabama as it should be. People down south pay much attention to Christmas and the day of independence should certainly not be forgotten.
 While discussing the Fourth I want to go on record as being in favor of plenty of noise. A quiet Fourth always re- minds me of Sunday and gives me the blues. If the youngsters are not endan- gering their lives by shooting fireworks you may rest assured that they will be in some mischief equally dangerous, and If they are hurt on the Fourth they will be hurt in good cause.'

Aid for the Schools.

The schools in this city are having a good week. The New York lawyers who have been examining the issue of high-school bonds report that their validity is beyond successful dispute The new bonds are declared valid and legal, and they will speedily be issued, and the money will be in hand with which to build high school and two primary schools.
 At the same time Jefferson county voted to levy tax for school purposes of 10 cents on each one hundred dollars of taxable values. This will give the schools of this city handsome addi- tional support, and it will pave the way for an abolition at some time of all fees in the high school.
 The better the schools of this city are made the more people will be at, tracted to it. The rural schools of A1dDdnid diC III r dCplOi and the parent who has children to educate will prefer the town that has good educational facilities. There is no up-building influence that is more attractive, and we are not speaking just now of the up-building of tie child so much as of the town. It pays to have, in other words, the best possi- ble schools.
 The step taken this week will won derfully help our schools, and 1t is not too much to anticipate that our public school system will not be out ranked in this section of the country. IL is excellent now, and it is to be made much better next year.
