Sale Of Road Made Legal.

News from New Orleans is to the
effect that the United States circuit
court Of appeals has dissolved the in
junction in the case Of Robert L. Shai-
Ter versus the Macon, Dublin and Sa-
vannah railroad, which prevented the
sale of the Macon, Dublin and Savan-
nah railroad to the Atlantic Coast
Line. The effect of this ruling OF the
circuit court is likely to- be. far-Eeach-
ing, as it is believed that the acquire
ment of the Macon, Dublin and Sa
vannah by the Atlantic Coast Line
means eventually it's extension to- the
coast.
The Macon, Dublin and Savannah
railroad was built by the Illinois and
Georgia Improvement company, some
thing over one million dollars being
expended Some time ago the Lii
nois and Georgia improvement cona-
pa.1y goa into financial difficulties,
and was unable to meet it's fixed
charges whereupon some Of it's se-
cuTities were sold. When this COD
ditiOn of affairs arose the Illinois and
Georgia Improvement company sold
to the Atlantic Coast Line the Ma
con, Dublin and Savannah railroad, ait
about ST., 250,G0O.
After this trade was made Robert
L. Smaller entered suit in the United
States court at Macon to enjoim the

With the exception of the new
counties and those old counties from
which portions were taken to form
the new ones the apportionment Of the
common school fund for 1906 has been
completed.
The reason no apportionment has
yet been made to the new counties
and to the cid counties from which

reached among the counties so affect
ed, as to the school population in the
new counties and the old ones.

WANT BIG SpUDS
Enormous Price Will be Paid
for Them

The Tribune will pay more for
potatoes than anybody else in the
world, provided the right kind of
stock is forthcoming. The price
that will be paid is SO high that if
farmer could get that kind of pay
for his entire crop he would be richer
than John d. Rockefeller in one sea-
son. The price that will be paid
will be at about the rate of $50 a
sack
This is no joke, but straight,
boni- tide business proposition. You
have the potatoes and we will try
and rustic the money.
Bring to the Tribune office the
largest smooth potato you find. If
it is the largest brought to this office
by December l, we will give you 50
for it.
Bring to this office the largest
potato you find, no matter what
shape. and if it is the largest in
weight brought here by December l,
we will give you 81 for it.
Bring to this office the largest ten
potatoes you find, and if they weigh
more than any other ten brought
here by December /, we will give
you 50 for them.
This is done in order to ascertain
the size of potatoes this year, and
will be used for advertising the
Greeley potato. A careful record 'oi
the weight of the different potatoes
brought in will be kept and exhibits
made of the big ones.
