Effect of the Bishops Law on Savings.


IT has been stated by those opposed to
Sunday closing that thousand of dollars
have gone out of Newark every Sunday
into New York for liquor. If the assertion
were true, that in their eagerness for Sum
day drink the workingmen of Newark were
taking all their wages out Of town sun
days, 1t Is logical conclusion that they
would have less money Mondays to put In
the savings banks. But six OF the savings
banks of Newark reveal the facts that the
Monday deposits since the Sunday closing
law has been enforced are one-third larger
than on corresponding Mondays last year,
when the Sunday law was not enforced.
For the first eight Mondays under the
Bishops law the increased savings deposits
for this year in four banks over correspond
ing Mondays of last year amounted to
nearly $4,000. If this average increase
applies to all the banks of the city IT means
that in eight weeks the workingmen OF
Newark have been able to put away for
future emergencies more than $Soo,ooo over
the amount of last year. 1t means that
they are putting in the bank Sioooo
week, a large part of which they had spent
in the saloons before the Sunday closing
law went into effect.

Col. E|kinS Rode
In Whee|barrow
Pushed by Hon. W. M. Wilson
OF COrde|e, as Result
Of Election Bet.

Cordele, Ca, Aug. 24.--It was
indeed an amusing and 1aughable
sight that occurred on the main
streets of Corde1e this morning
when Hon. Walter M. Wilson, of
this city. gave Col. O. H. Elklns
a free ride in a wheelbarrow.
Some months ago Messrs Wilson
and Elkins made a-wager to the
effect that Hon. Clark Howell
would not carry forty-hve coun-
ties in the race for governor.
The wager was reduced to
writing at the time and witnessed
by prominent citizens Of the city
and was in substance as follows:
That should the Hon. Clark
Howell carry As counties in the
race for, governor, Col. Elklns
would roll Mr.. Wilson around
the main block of Cordele and
across three of the most proml-
nent street fronts (naming them
ia the city, with cardboard on
his back that he was crazy enough
to vote for Hoke Smith, apd
should Howell fail to carry As
counties that Mr.. Wilson was to
roll Col. Elkins as above descrlb-
Tea with a cardboard on bis back:
Il voted for that little man How
ell, who could not carry As coun-
ties in the state for governor.
Hoke Smiths sweeping victo-
ry put Mr.. Wilson to the handles
of the whee1barrow and Col. FL
kins to do the riding, who car
ried a banner bearing the name
of Hoke Smith. Mr.. Wilson
took the dose in a good natured
way. The procession Started
from the Suwanee house, where
a large crowd had gathered to
witness the fun. AS the wheel
barrow crossed 8th street a
storm of laughter and applause
greeted the actors. The wager
was carried out to the letter of
the specifications and was great
1y enjoyed by all who witnessed
the performance.

Winder, Ca, Aug. 24.-'1n
1908 the popu1ists expect to fol-
low under the banner of reformed
democracy whether lead by w.
]. Bryan or our own Hoke Smith"
This statement, as made from
the platform by Col. M. D. Irwin,
attorney and former populist,
was one of the most interesting
incidents of fhe enthusiastic Hoke
Smith rally held Thursday even
ing in Winder.
1T has been charged that the
popu1ists were not sincere in this
campaign" continued the speak
er as applause subsidized, that
they would not stand by the
nominee unless Hoke Smith was
successful.
II say that more Infamous
lie was never told.
IF there were no other bene-
fetal result of the recent race 1
would rejoice in the fact that we
are a reunited Democracy of
Georgia.
These sentiments expressed by
Colonel Irwin created the warm

above fell in carless, Indifferent

How true.
Railroads may we'll be called
ciyilizers. We notice in our city
that young men just entering into
manhood and with that immature
look which belongs to that age,
soon lost it after a weeks work
with the A. B. & A. railroad.
Their carriage is more manly
and free and yet dignified.
An air of business seems to
quickly enfo1d them and they
walk off as though life really pos
sessed some responsibilities for
them and yet there is an express
sion of contentment. The syste-
matte and faithful performance
of duty required by all railroads
places its seal upon them and
their fellow men recognize them
as part and parcel of the business
world.
