Savannah Politicians Say the Anti
Betting Bill Can Not BE Enforced.
The bill, which has been passed by
the Senate, making it a misdemeanor
to bet on elections, is laughed at by
the Savannah politicians. They do not
think such a law could be enforced
anywhere in the state.
There is only one way to enforce
such a law" said a prominent official
yesterday, "and that is to pass another
bill making it a felony to have an
election in Georgia During the ex-
element incident to a heated CAM
paign, men are sure to bet. There is
no way in the world to stop them, ex-
cept the remedy 1 have suggested.
If the elections are stopped, the bet
ting on them will cease, but otherwise
not"

A sAcGING FAMINE IN AMERlcus
Farmers Have Naught Wherein to
Wrap FIeecy.

Along with other famines Americas
dealers are up against rather unusual
one just now in the form of bagging
famine. A roll of jute bagging does
not make palatsble table dish, but
when it gives out famine results, and
Just now we have famine.
For, be it known. there is not roll
of bagging in Americus.
Dealers here let their stocks run low,
expecting to replenish at will, but
when. orders for more bagging were
sert in the sources OF supply did not
ill them very promptly.
At all events there's no bagging, and
the great money source-cotton-
numbered to an extent.
For cotton cannot be sold until pack
ed, and farmers cannot pack it without
bagging. In the meanwhile old coffee
sacks are being hunted up as substi-
tute. One big load of cotton came in
yesterday, every bale packed IN that
kind of bagging.
Dealers here have shipments on the
road, some of them out a week, and
hope soon to relieve the bagging fam
inc in Americas.
