The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1904-09-07

Attorney General John G. Hart has
handed down an opinion at the request
of State Entomologist Wilmon Newell

boil weevil is not in violation of the
federal constitution. 1t had been sug-

MES that this law was unconstitutional
on the ground that it permits interior

claim was made because the new law
permits the inspection of cotton seed,
cotton seed bulls, oats, ETC., brought
from Texas or Louisiana to ascertain
whether they contain the Mexican boil

RELIGIOUS TRUST PROJECTED
A Score of Prominent Ministers Have
Joined in the Movement
Out in Kansas.

A big trust in religion in the state
of Kansas is projected by preacher
of that state. A report says: ALREADY
a score of prominent ministers, repre-
sentlng all denominations, have joined
in the movement, and have decided
against creed and denomination and
in favor of broad and liberal christ
ianity." One Of the chief aims Of the
trust is to supply small towns with able
preachers, and the other is to prevent
the Overlapping of the support OF two
church organizations when one will
answer the purpose. Whether the
brethren will dwell long together ia
love and affection remains to ne seen,
