TO RUN ON THE OCMULeEE
Lease on the Nan Elizabeth Has EE-
pired and it has Been Decided to
Establish Line With Four
Boats on the Run.

The Macon Telegraph of yesterday
has the following story which will be
of interest in Brunswick:
After a warm meeting of the cham.
Der OF commerce yesterday afternoon
ii was decided that a stock company
would be formed to inaugurate per,
manent line of steamers on the Oc
mulgee. A committee Of three was
appointed to take the matter in charge
and report progress as soon as pos

not more than -four boats and not less
than three. No decisive action was
taken in regard to the question of

loading her cargoes at the docks of
the Mallory Steamship line at Bruins

to be that the la wwould be tried only
as Il last resort. The question of

stock company is formed

"The discussion was brought out
that the Nan was called upon to carry
much more merchandise than she
could handle, and il q company could

handsome per cent. The Nan was
chartered for only three months an
her purpose was fulfilled.
"The conference between the mem,

the officials Of abe Southern railway
was reported by President Small and
the sense of the body was that ac;-

shown that three days were consumed
in the loading CT the Macon boat and
that ii cost $40 a day for lighters.

Expected That sO|Ons Viii
Take Some Action in
Franchise Matter
ARE MUM ON SITUATION
May be That They Will Pass the Mat
ter Without Action Although the
Franchise Expires Tomorrow
Situation is Peculiar.

The city council will meet in regu-
meeting should be an interesting one
but whether 1t will or not remains
to be seen.
1t should be interesting for the sim
pie fact that some action ought to
be taken in the trolley franchise mat
ter.
The franchise granted to J. H. Neff
one year ago, expires tomorrow and
the meeting tonight will be the last
opportunity council has before the ex-
piration of the franchise. But what
the solons will do is puzzle. 1t $
not what they will do but what can
they do?
Where this franchise Is at present
no one seems to know, though 1t is
generally believed that it is in the pos
session of ]. H. Neff. although it has
been rumored about the streets that il
had been disposed of and that it was
now in the hands of an Atlanta con-
cern.
The meeting tc be held tonight has
been looked forward to for some weeks
by the people of Brunswick. They
had expected some announcement
ahead of time as 10 what had beel
done. but, if anything at all has O..
Cured in the trolley franchise bust
ness, the people of this city have been
kept in the dark. You can, of course,
hear all kinds of rumors, but to try
TO find a foundation for any of them
is like looking for a needle in hay
stack.
Council Is confronted with a very
peculiar and indeed, an embarrassing
proposition. II a member has been
smart enough to arrange a loop-hole
he has kept it quiet.
While The News knows positively
that Neff has not sold his franchise,
still those who seem to sympathise
with council in their position state
that it is in the hands of Atlanta pa:
ties referred to, and that tonight ccun
Gil will be asked to extend the fran.
chise for another year.
No doubt numbr of Interested cit.
izens will be present at the meeting
mi don't be surprised if all business
~ handled by the salons without a
word being said about the Neff fran
chise.

ONLY SMALL PROFIT FOR
THE WATERMELON GROWERS

While the supply of melons fully
equals the demand and more, it is
true that growers did not realize much
on shipments to distant markets this
year. The crop was lighter than last
year, and returns are light as We'll
Taken all together and considering the
shortgage of the melon crop, it is a
little surprising that prices were not
better than they were, The returns
this year will probably discourage
many who might have thought of go
ing into the business next year.

Canards About China.

American missionaries in China are great
ly surprised by the inquiries from home as
to their safety. They are not aware OF
danger, but are going about their business
as usual. 1t is the season OF canards about
things Chinese We should not abate the
ordinary precautions for our people In that
part of the world. but 1t will be well to re-
member that the discussion of the exclu-
sion law lends itself to inventions and exag-
gerations, and to be prepared for much
reading that is more readable than reliable.
Steamship companies and trading associa-
lions would have the country believe that
we are goading the Chinese to desperation
by our exclusion OF the coolies. The former
are after passenger traffic. and the latter
after business. and both are working for
their pockets. with small If any thought OF
the larger question involved. The coolies
must be kept out.
