Bride and Groom Met the First Time

romantic circumstances, Cupid using

Mr.. Postma advertised in pa

object Miss Chase responded and
the correspondence led to an engage
ment after inquiries had been made
regarding the standing of the young
man, who is a Swede of the highest
character and owns a comfortable
home. He came to Fort Gaines
Monday, and the marriage followed,
the couple leaving at once for their
future home in Kansas.
The bride was once a resident of
Randolph county, and lived in Be-

1t remains a fact, however, that
the vast majority of appointments,
such as county and city court Off
Gals, trustees and various boards
will be beyond the reach of the in
coming governor should he desire
to remove them.
There has been much speculation
as to Governor Terrell's probable
career after he retires from the gov
ernorship. One report, and proba-
bly, the nearest to the truth, is that
he will form an alliance with some
strong legal firm in Atlanta and set
tie down to the practice of law. The
prestige of his long public service
would insure him a large and pay

During the session of the city court
which has just adjourned there We're
as usual, a number of prosecutions
under the contract labor law.
1t has been noticed for sometime
that this law was being USED d.
means of collecting debt instead
Of furnishing crime, and it is tact
that the number of convictions OF
those arrested on the charge OF Vlo-
lating it are growing fewer and rev.
err This was the case last week.
1t often happens that a warrant
is issued against an alleged violator
Of the contract law, and when the
amount is collected that is claimed 10
be owed an effort is made to stop
prosecution and settle the case OUT
Of court. 1t is even charged thaC
some have gone so far as to take
warrants for alleged contract jump
ers and then take them out OF JAN
and work them until court.
Solicitor Yeomans, who is in po-
Sition to know more about the abuse
OF this law than anyone else, is rear
full that some of our citizens will ma
themselves defendants in the Unlteu
states court unless certain practlceS
are stopped. He also calls attentlon
to the fact that it is having a pau
effect on labor.
In the trial of a case Solicitor 1eo-
mans made some remarks to the jury
ABOUT the use of the law for oVhei
'nan legitimate purposes, and latel

BURGLARS VISIT ARLINGTON.

fore Governor Terrell retires from
office next June he will have filled
practically every political appoint

for four years.
This means that if Hoke Smith
serves two terms as governor
which has been almost the unbroken
custom in Georgia for longer than
ANYBODY can remember-he will
have little left him in the way of
noIiticaI appointments. Some of the
amendments being made by Gov
eruor Terrell now will expire in the
very last part of Hoke Smiths term.

THREE ELECTIONS TUESDAY
THERE'LL BE PLENTY OF VOT-

Congressman and Judges Are to Be
Elected and Local Taxation for
Schools Passed on.
The weary voter will have to
wend his way to the polls again next
Tuesday. He will be able, however,
to kill three birds with one stone, as
three elections-one national, one
state and one local-will be held
The national election will be for a
congressman, the state election for
three judges of the new court of ap-
peals, and the county election on the
question of local taxation for schools
The same managers will hold all
three of the elections, but the
school tax question will be voted on
with separate tickets and the ballots
deposited in a separate box. These
tickets will read Local Tax for
Public Schools" and Against Local
Tax for Public Schools" The quail
fed voters of the entire county out
side of the limits of Dawson can vote
in this election, and it will take two.
thirds of them to authorize the tax.
Dawson was incorporated as local
school district some years ago, and
the people of the city will have no
voice in this election.
The form of the ballot for con-
gresham and judges will be:
For Representative in Sixtieth Con-
gress from Second District:
JAMES NJ. GRIGGS.
For Judges of the Court of Appeals:
BENZ. II. HILL,
ARTHUR G. POWELL,
RICHARD B. RUSSELL.
These gentlemen, who are the
nominees of the democratic party,
are eminent and worthy Georgians,
and should be given a big vote Tues
day.

adopted, follows:
Whereas, Terrell county has
made a fair trial of the dispensary,
believing at the time it was prefera-
BILE to open barrooms; and, whereas,
the drink habit has increased, shown
by the increased sale of intoxicating
liquor from over 100000 to more

aroused the people against the sale
of liquor, therefore

! purpose of eXtOrting money or col

the violation of contracts begun IN
good faith, for the sole purpose OF
nunishing a violator of the law,
should be encouraged, but those
eases which have for their founda-
tion a desire to wreak revenge or
collect a debt should be branded by
court and jury as malicious. A good

been so perverted by some, not by

PARK COMMISSIONERS
SUSPICIOUS OF GIFTS
THEY WILL FIGHT SHY OF
WASTE LAND
Objections Made to Improving WORTH
less Tract for the Benefit of Ad-
joining Property owners-offers
Hereafter to Be Investigated

Private property improved at the ex
pense of the city will not be so much
In vogue in the future as 1t has been
in the past, according to the action of
the park commissioners yesterday at
their regular meeting at the city hall.
Accepting waste land and improving
| it for the benefit of the adjoining prop
erty holders does not appeal to the
park commissioners. Hereafter any
offers of land for park purposes must
| be accompanied by blue prints and
| further explanations before the board
of park commissioners will so much as
consider the Offer
This decisive action of the park COM
missioners is the direct result of
communication from George Lyons,
president of the Ninth Ward Improve
ment association, asking the city to ac-
cept tract of land on Stephenson ave-
nue., between Fresno avenue and Pho
neer drive, for park purposes. This
tract of land has been donated by ].
Harvey Mccarthy and his associates.
Park Commissioner Humphreys
spoke decisively to the members of
the park commissioners yesterday when
the question of accepting this land
came up before the board. Mr.. Hum
phreys stated that the commissioners
will not accept waste land in the fu-
ture when by so doing 1t would more
than double the value of the land sur
rounding the park.
'I am much more in favor of buying
good lands and improving them at
smaller expense than accepting poor
lands and improving them at great ex
pense," said Mr. Humphreys. -. while
there may be much good ground on
Stephenson avenue, we do not know
what we are asked to accept"
