OBSERVANCE OF GEORGIA DAY
Anniversary Of the Founding of the
Colony.

~ @hS OUh90HIS Ot lHS
Colony
This day, February LIB, is G .orgia
day, and is observed as such because
1t is the date on which Gen. Oglethorpe
is said to have landed on Yamacraw
Bluff and established the colony of
Georgia, There has always been some
conflict with regard to the exact date Of
Oglethorpe's landing, but the Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution have
settled upon February 12 in preference
to February 5, which some say is the
correct time. Georgia day is not a
state holiday, but it may be approprl-
ately observed in the public schools on
Monday.

Standing room will go at three dol

depending upon this means of seeing
the fight will pay much more.
The arena is pitched in the center
of the old union Coursing park, ten
miles from the down town district of
San Francisco, outside the jurisdic
tion of the local police authorities
The contest will begin at two o'clock.

SUMMARY ACTION
IN PALMER CASE
President Released Public Printer

RICKETTS, IN CHARGE

FORMER PUBLIC PRINTER
HAD ALREADY BEEN ASK.
ED TO QUIT

Oyster Bay Sept S.-Presiden.
Roosevelt this afternoon took sum-
mary action in the case of Frank w.
Palmer, public printer and head Of
the government printing Office al
Washington, by removing him from
office.
Last Monday the President request
ed Palmer to send to him his resig
nation to take effect the 10th inst.
At the same time he directed him
not to take any further action In the
cases of Fl. J. Ricketts,. foreman of
the printing and G. L. Hay, divis-
ion foreman in the government
printing office, whose resignation
Palmer has requested
Palmer had given Ricketts, and Hay
until Tuesday to show the cause in
writing why charges he had made
against them should not be operative
in removing them from their positions
in event of their failure to resign.
| In direct disobedience of the presi-
dents directions, Palmer, on the 9Th
inst, notified Ricketts, and Hay the
time which they might have in which
to answer his charges would be ex-
tended until Saturday the 9th inst.
AS this was not only a violation oi
the presidents specific instructions
but as the case of Ricketts, and Hay
had been placed in the hands OF the
Keep commission for investigation,
the president felt 1t was time TO take
positive action regarding Palmer
| Ho therefore removed him from th,
Office by telegraph and directed HIN
to turn over the government printin!
office to Foreman Ricketts,, whom h
! bas designated as acting public prin
ter
1t can be said the appointment {
Rickets as acting public printer is nc
an assurance that he will succee
permanently to that office. The pre-
dent has not determined yet whom i
may appoint as successor TO Paine
It is not unlikely that final detern
