DECIDE ON
THE CITY
-
Where the Georgia State
Fair of 1904 WILDE
SOON TO MEET
Atlanta, Macon, Savannah, Vadosta
and Several Other Cities are After
the Fair and Fight Will be a
Lively One.
COMMITTEE SOON TO MEET

The annual meeting of the executive
committee Of the Georgia State Agri-
cultural society will be held either in
Atlanta or Macon on February 10. At
this meeting the place will be desig-
mated at which the state fair for this
year will be held
1t is known that the state fair can
not be held except under the aus
pices and direction of the Georgia
State society. This is a chartered
right which belongs to- that society.
There promises to be sharp competi-
tition for the state fair of 1904. 1t is
understood that Atlanta, Macon, Sa-
vannah. Athens, Valdosta Albany,
Rome and possibly one or two other
towns will contend for the prize.
The procedure is that city which
desires to secure the fair offers q
round sum Of money to be expended
in agricultural and ether attractive
pl tllluluS, INC ldlI W Dt COtluuCleu uIl-
der the supervision and with the CO.
operation of the state society.
Last year Macon gave $4,000 cash
to- secure the fair. 1t proved to be
splendid investment, for the thousands
of people crowded the city's thorough
fares and filled the spacious fair
grounds to overflowing. This year
1904 promises to be phenomenal one
for the great state fair. Everybody
recognizes that to be a fact. So the
people of Georgia may confidently
expect to see the most active competl-
tion between the cities named.
President Hughes and Secretary Cal
vim are comforting as to the place of
meeting of the executive committee
and the city selected will be announc-
ed in a day or two.

Mail to Be Delivered from
the New POStOffICe
Today
FINISHED MOVING LAST NIGHT
The News Will be the First to Give
Employees Mail to Handle in New
Quarters Bright and Early
This Morning. -

The weather will be clear an6 the
flag will fly, and people who az not
even expect mail, who do not receive
mail once a month, will call at the
new postoffice today and ask for mail
This is their right, however, although
they are going there more to see how
everything looks and make a general
inspection than for mail.
Yesterday was probably the busiest
day that Postmaster Brown and the
clerks have experienced since they
have been in the employment of the
government. There was hustle and
hustle all during the day; things were
being removed from the old Office and
placed in position in the new quarters
and today mail will be delivered and
received there.
Clerk Twomey was kept busy issu-
ing keys to the boxes and he did a
regular landoffice business. There are
several keys to each box, and the own
er may secure as many as he desires,
at 20 cents per key, this amount being
required as a deposit
The force will report for duty early
and The News will give the employees
the first work in their new quarters,
for upon their arrival they will find
the usual large bundle of papers from
this Office to be distributed, and The
News will also be the first paper or
piece Of mail to occupy a place in
many of the new boxes, and we hope
that The News will be the first to re-
ceive a letter with good-sized check
in it) when the first mail from out
of town arrives this morning.
Postmaster Brown, by good work,
has succeeded in getting everything in
shape for beginning business today,
and he expects an unusually heavy
rush. There will be the citizen who
has forgotten his new box number,
another whose key won't work and
the man closest at hand will act more
in the capacity Of an information bu-
reu than clerk. '-~.&..

Has Been Offered Freight
Agency of Southern in
That City
HE is AS YET UNDECIDED
Does Not Know Whether or Not He
Will Accept the Aaency-Thinks
Brunswick Most too Good
City to Leave.

A well founded rumor was af1oat in
railroad circles yesterday to the effect
that C. l.. Gambler, general agent OF
the Southern railway in this city, had
been rendered the position Of freight
agent of the same line in Atlanta.
A News reporter when he learned
Of the rumor, sought Mr. Gambler, and
by him the rumor was confirmed.
However, Mr.. Gambler has the pro-
motion under advisement, and is yet
undecided as to whether or not he
will accept.
Mr. Gambler has been the agent OF
the Southern in Brunswick for num-
ber of years, and during that time
he has always been an earnest and
energetic worker for Brunswick and
is one of our leading citizens. Only
recently he was mentioned as presi-
dent of the Brunswick board of trade,
but, owing to official duties, could not
accept the place. He has recently
erected a handsome home in the city,
and seems satisfied with Brunswick.
For these reasons Mr.. Gambler deferred
a final reply to the Southern and as
yet is undecided as to the change.
While the News is delighted to see
Brunswickians offered such deserved
promotions as this, at the same time
..iiu.s.kEs. ~ .s.kEs.ss Mr. .CanGler. will decline the
Offer. for the simple reason that, by
ills rernas Brunswick would lose a
most. yafuefl citizen. This popular Of
ficial Of the Southern occupies a high
eplace in the business, social and musi-
cal circles. OF the city.
. However, Lle freighe agency of a
railroad like the Southern in a city
the size of Atlanta, is rather a
big place fer any man to turn
down nd it is indeed the best
evidence OF Ike high esteem in
which the 4.unswick agent is held
by his company.
A definite decision will probably be
reached by Mr. Gambler In the course
of few days.

morning to the effect that Brunswick
veteran would be named as command
er of the "Pine Tree" brigade, to sue
ceed General McGlashan, OF Savannah,

prise to the veterans, but still they
were all delighted with the news that
Brunswick man would be selected
for such a high place.
A News reporter yesterday talked
with a majority of the veterans and
it is the general opinion among them
that the brigadier generalship will fall
to either Capt. U. Dart, Judge Hor.
ace Dart or DR.. w. B. Burroughs.
All three of these gentlemen are
prominent veterans and take Agreat
interest In the organization. A major
ity Of the veterans seemed to think
: that Capt U Dart was the man re
fexred to in the Savannah paper.
1t is known that he was a close
friend to General Gordon, and also
General Lee, now commander in chief
of the veterans. DR.. Burroughs says
this question was brought up some
time since and he suggested the name
of Judge Horace Dart. One or two
of the veterans yesterday stated thai
they thought DR.. Burroughs would re
ceive the appointment. He is presi
dent of the Glynn county camp ant
one of the most enGhusiastic veterans
in the state.

,cent convention in this city, has near
Nv doubled the railroad assessment in
his county.
He has assessed the Northern Pa
cific main line at 900 per mile. The
rate last year was $500 per mile; the
rate advocated for this year by the
railroad committee, of which Dayton
II. Stewart of Spokane, was chairman,
was 1892 per mile, and the minimum
rate suggested by the 10 assessors who
protested against the low rate wanted
by the railroad committee and nine
others in the convention, was 1920.
After giving the matter further inves-
tigation Assessor Walton of Adams
county has become convinced that the
latter rate was too low, and that the
Northern Pacific main line in Adams
county ought to be assessed at least
$1,000 per mile This, with the as
sessment on rolling stock and personal
property. will bring the Adams coun-
~ assessment close to $4,000 per mile.
