HAS
SOME
DEFECTS
Plumbing Law Similar
TO BARRIERS Law
Test Case Made With View
to Having 1t Declared
Invalid

Portland, April 1S-The constitu.
tionality of the statute licensing and
regulating the plumbing trade and II,
censing plumbers is to be tested. The
law is alleged to be similar to the bar.
bers act, which Judge George recent
ly decided was not constitutional, be-
cause IL authorizes the state board Of
barber examiners to adopt rules and
regulations providing what qualifica.
ton BARRIERS must possess to entitle
them to work at the trade. The court
held that 1t is for the legislature to
say what qualifications are necessary,
and that the legislature cannot dele.
gate its powers to a board of plumb
ers.
In the act to license plumbers, 1t Is
said, the legislature has again dele.
gated its power to a board, and the
law is said to be subject to ther legal
objections.
In order to bring the mater before
the courts, Paxton, Beach & Simon,
attorneys, caused A. Claussenius, Jr.,
to be arrested and convicted in the
municipal court yesterday on a charge
violating the plumbing statute.
Yesterday afternoon the attorneys
a petition for a writ of habeas
corpus in behalf of C%laussenius in the
state circuit court, and when the pc.
comes up for argument the con.
stitutional question will be raised in
support of the issuance Of the writ
rhe case will no doubt be carried to
he supreme court for a final decision.
Claussenius is at liberty on bonds.

A DELUGE OF BALES
FELL IN The CITY.
Americas at Nine Thousand
Bale Mark.
FLEEcY IN a STEADY STREAM.
Poured In Friday from a Half Dozen
Commissioner 900 Bales Game
Yesterday and Today's Receipts
VIII Be Heavy Too,

Nine hundred and thirty bales cot
ton, wagon cotton, were hauled to the
Americus warehouses yesterday from
Sumter and neIghboring counties, thus
making it the banner day of the sea-
son, though several other "big days"
have been almost as GOOD
But none of the others thus far went
as high as $50 bales.
Cotton buyers and warehousemen
counted upon heavy receipts yesterday,
but few of the guesses went above $50,
or just eighty bales shy of the sctual
number handled. -
And 1t stamped Americas the biggest
cotton market in the state.
Probably no other town in Georgia
received $50 bales yesterday. But
Americus did, and this upon the heels
of heavy receipts all the week. On
Wednesday 535 bales were received
here, 675 on Thursday, $50 yesterday,
total of 2, 40 bales in three days.
A pretty good record, and one of
which our cotton men are justly proud.
And another 900 will be added to
day to the grand total. It is expected
that the warehouses will have the bust
est day of the season today, handling
fully thousand bales.
Up to date Americas has received
more than s, $50 bales of this crop, all
of which is wagon cotton; sold here
and the money spent here. At an av-
erage price of 1O4 cents, this cotton was
worth $433;O00. And the MAJOR portion
of it sold for higher figure.
Americus will get 10000 bales more
cotton this season than last.
Not only is the local outlook better,
but each year additional territory is
added from which she draws cotton
bales from other points.
Recognized as the leading market IN
southern Georgia, with score of buy"
ers representing American and Eu
ropean houses and paying the highest
prices; with every facility for handling
cotton, and the best trade center in the
state, farmers naturally prefer it.
That they do this is evidenced by the
fact that Amerious leads all the others
on receipts.

IT SCARS IN PRICE
YE STAFF OF LIFE.
Americas Folks Up Against
Advance.
ALL Foo0sTUFFs ARE COSTLY.
Everything One Buys from an Egg to
a Barrel of Flour is Higher, and Still
MISUNDERSTANDING in Wheat Runs
Flour 10 the Roof.

The man who thinks it cheaper to
die than to live now has q golden op,
portunity to Il ut his pet theory into
practice, particularly if he lives in
Americas and has to measure his wits
against slim purse in the purchase of
his daily bread and meat.
To do this, under present conditions,
is problem calculated TO drive one to
suicide or matrImony.
For with less money wherewlth to
cajole the bland grocer, there is less to
be had in market, and the advance in
prices even beats the Russians in their
sprint for safety.
Food stuffs of all kinds, especially
-four, haye advanced in prices.
Flour has gone up to ST. 25 on the
barrel within the last few weeks and
che prices on almost all foodstuffs have
advanced. Canned goods, hams, and
meats, cost more than they did q few
weeks ago.
Shortage in the wheat crop explains
the advance in -four.
Then there may be various reasons
for the increased demand for fl )ur, the
war in the East probably having some
thing to do with it.
Though the advance in the price of
-four is easily accounted for, the cause
for the increase in the prices on other
articles is less obvious. A grocer ex-
plains it simply by saying that the de
mand has increased.
But the Japs and Russ do not eat
hams and bacon and lard, sweet pota>
toes, butter, eggs, hominy, vegetables
and hundred other articles common
on every Americas table, and yet the
price of every eatabIe here named has
gone way out of sight.
Sumter county is ha,y esting a crop
ola half million bushels sweet potatoes,
and yet they cost $1.2O per bushel here.
A little later they will be much cheaper
as they are brought in quantities.
And the price of everything else is
up, away up to the top limit
Even the things We raise at home
cost fortune now. Country ham are
Is cents, butter % to 30 cent?, while
eggs have the value of scarf pins as
setting. Even vegetables are very
scarce, and the few varieties in market
bring weight in coin.
II evidences the fact that there are
more consumers than producers in this
section.
Americus is rapidly growing city,
and the erstwhile vegetable gardens
are now built up in handsome houses.
There is no longerroom in town for the
old-time garden, and the population of
today is one that buys everything that
is used at home.
The people hope for some relief from
high prices, bat right now there is
none in sight.

Great Address.

Harper's Weekly pays editorial
tribute to the Lincoln speech at
Gettysburg in these striking words:
A feature Of Memorial day this year
was the speech made by President
Roosevelt on the battlefield Of
Gettysburg. The task which he
undertook, and which many Of our
most eloquent citizens have essayed
before him, is one Of extraordinary
difficulty; for treasured in the mem.
cries alike Of auditors and readers are
the imperishable sentences uttered
by Abraham Lincoln, November 10,
1858, on the field Of the decisive &C..
ton Of civil war. Lincoln, it will
DO remembered, followed Edward
Everett, believed to be the greatest
orator then living in the United
States; and, unquestionably, the
theme was calculated to elicit ell the
skill and felicity Of treatment degiv-
able from Everett's natural gifts and
mature experience. Yet the 1858
words modsstly pronounced by Abra-
ham Lincoln made Everett's long ora
tion seem academic. periunctory. YER
bose, inadequate, tame. II we except
the famous passage in the oration"0n
the Crown" wherein the great Athen-
ian invokes "the men who fell at
Marathon" 1t cannot be disputed, we
think, that, in the speech he made
at Gettysburg, Lincoln outdid De.
mosthenes. So large and lofty are
the thoughts that, for the moment,
no others seems worthy to intrude
upon the scene; and so exquisitely
fitting are the words, that hardy
indeed would be the rhetoriciAn who
should try % edit or rstouch them.
In one asssveration Lincoln, however.
was mistaken. He told his hearers
that the world would little note nor
long remember what ave" saw here
but thsti; could never forget what
''thsy"-ths brave men living and
dead, who had fought upon that field
did here. Il is true enough that

Japan and Kansas.

An Abilene man just returned from
St. Louis says that two classes are
prominent above oil others Of the
Fair-Kansans and Japanese. Every
where those two dominate things.
And the Japanese look to America
with great friendship. A letter to q
Kansas woman from dweller In Japan
conveys the idea that We here little
realize the warmth Of the affection
the Japanese all but the most ignor'
ant, to whom at present all white peo-
pie look like Russians--bear for the
United States. According to her, 1t
has become q sort OF national en-
thusiasm. This 10 verified by an &C.
companying extended account, from
the Japan Times, of the proceedings
on the occasion Of the fiftieth anni'
versary Of the opening Of the country
by Commodore Perry. April, 1854.
1t will be recalled that two years ago
q grand monument to Perry was erect
ed in Japan. This years anniver'
sary was commemorated BY a great
meeting, at which several Of the fore
most men Of the Japanese cabinet
and parliament delivered addresses
eulogistiC OF Perry and Of the United
States-addresses which may well
make the American cheek glow with
pride over American achievement for
Japan, so fully and SO gratefully
recognized by the speakers. The sub
stahtisl outcome Of the meeting was
the esta blishment Of the "Perry Me-
mortal Relief Fund" for the aid Of
the destitute families Of Japanese
soldiers and sailors. To this fund about
SS2, 900 was subscribed on the spot,
several Americans, including Minister
Griscom, joining in the work.
Japan and Kansas make winning
combination and we are glad they are
associated.
