FRAUDULENT DAMAGE SUITS.

1t is stated that one of the
street railroad companies of New
York is threatened with insolv-
ency because of the number and
size of the personal damage suits
brought against it. The story is
that the amonnt of these suits
approximate 100000 a year.
A big item of expense of cities
and railroads is these personal
damage suits. In Chicago the
city attorney has adopted the
practice of calling the attention
of the grand jury to persons he
suspects of having committed per-
jury in fraudulent damage suits
against that city, aud in New
York accident insurance and in
dustrial companies have formed q
combination to resist frandpIent
accident claims.

THE STATE FAIR.

The State Fair was success in
every particular. It had the great
est display of agriculture that was
ever seen in the State.
Prof. A. L. Hacker, who Judged
the live stock, stated that it was
the best cattle show that he had
ever seen at ally State fair any,
where. He judges all over the
United States
1t had 1920 birds in the poultry
show and it was one of the greatest
ever held in the South. The dis
play Of woman's work, agricul-
tural implements, machinery and
merchandise was very large and
unusually interesting.
The two great days Of the Fair
were the all-day singing and
President Roosevelt day. Frank
Weldon did service to the State
IN bringing the President here.
He went away enthusiastic over
his welcome by Georgia.
The exhibitors, without excep-
ton, were gratified at the results
and they all had very pleasant
things to say about their treat
ment by the Fair management.
The officers of the State Agricul-
tural Society were also warm in
their praise of Atlanta. The Fair
spent more money advertising in
the county weeklies than was ever
expended by fair in Georgia and
as highly pleased with the results.
Mr.. Frank Weldon, secretary
and general manager, proved to be
the right man in the right place.
He deserves we'll.

According to The Manufac-
turers' Record, men who can labor
with their hands are needed in the
South. With every able-bodied
laborlng man now at work, "there
would still be room for 500, 900
men and women to do the imme-
date work of the South, to say
nothing of that which is to be
done hereafter" This shortage
Of help has told severely in the
cotton mills. According to The
Record, Gin the season of 19O4-O5
Southern mills consumed 2 1872
992 bales of cotton though their
spinning capacity was sufficient to

PIGEON FLIES WITH TRAIN.

Homing pigeons are the craze il
England JUST now and on one re-
cent Saturday between 100000
and 100000 birds were released in
various competitions.
A humber of these were raced to
London from Retford and Brans-
ton. The distances are 1877 and
113 miles respectively, but no
birds of the several thousand re-
leased made the trip in the tradi-
tional mile a minute, although
every circumstance of wind wea-
Their was favorable to record
breaking.
Much better time was made in
a contest from Templecombe TO
London, IN which one bird made
the 1913 miles in 81 minutes, All
average of sixty-nine miles an
hour, and more than 100 exceeded
a speed of sixty miles an hour.
One of the Oldest homers is q
bird which makes it's home around
the railway station at Liege, in
Belgium. There is q train from
Liege to Waremme which starts
every morning at 10 o'clock.
AS soon as the train pulls into
the station the bird commences to
circle in the air and as soon as
Roadway is gained follows the
train to it's destination, returning
Immediately home, where it flies
about the station for the rest of
the day.
1t pays no attention to any
other of the trains and no one is
able to offer an explanation as to
why this particular train should
be favored.-Chicago Chronicle.

and the transaction of such business as
will help to build up ana increase the
usefulness of the order will be attended
to. At our last meeting we discussed
the fertilizer question, in all of it's
different bearings, and much valuable
information was elected. The varied
experiences of those present on that
occasion shed much light uron this in
tricate and expensive agricultural
question.
The subject for discussion at our De-
cember meeting, and one fully as i'm.
portant as the fertilizer question, is the
"sale OF cottonseed. Is the farmer do.
ing justice to his land in robbing it OF
this valuable plant food? There is NO
more important subject bearing upon
the economies of the farm than the
above and none treated with less
thought by our farmers. We cordially
invite all farmers and those interested
in the improvement of our lands to
meet with US, and discuss this all i'm.
portant farm problem. You have the
leisure now to leave home for day
and aid US in this work.

Montreal has a new type of
railway car, says the Toronto
Mail and Empire. 'fhe passenger
enters at the rear end and passes
through a doorway, where the
conductor, in species of ticket

stated that the company gathers

car than it did in the old type.

THE FIGHT ON THE HIGH SEAS.

After long and expectant waiting
the world has been advised Of great
naval battle between the Japs and
Russians The little folks who had
been winning such signal victories ON
shore have now won new laurels ON
the sea. They waited patiently until
the fly had entered their parlor and
then began the work of destruction.
1t is said that the Russian fleet was
practically annihilated and that the
Japs suffered no loss Of ships. Does
this mean that the curtain will fall on
the bloody tragedy? May be Japan
will be so filled with pride that she
will want the Earth We have
sometimes thought that she would
next fasten her eye on the Philippine
prize. Better far that Uncle Sam
should sell out rather than shell out.
The far-ofi property is not worth the
holding much less fighting for. But
Russia may not yet be done with
their friends the enemy.r

charges thR the Judges are nothing
more nor less than corporation law
yers so far as their decisions are con-
cerned. We had heard the same COM
plant coming from one of the lawyers
OF Southwest Virginia, who went so
far as to say that If the decisions ofthe
present court where corporations were
parties ever made the subject of pub
lie discussion no man could go to the
next legislature who did not in advance
pledge his vote against the incumbents.
He went still further than that and
said that If the Democratic party
should stand for the present Judges.
the Republicans opposing them would
sweep the State just as the Readjus-
tiers did to accomplish their purposes.
The new issue will give new interest
to the canvass, and we will watch IFS
unfolding with genuine interest.
