FINANCES
IN FINE CONDITION

Secretary of the Treasury Shaw is
prepared 20 advertise the sale OF S25.-
100000 Of Panama bonds. The advertise
ment will be issued about the middle of
July. II is TO be a popular loan. and the
Secretary expects to realize a small
premium
1t is not Mr.. Shaw's intention TO issue
above S25.OOO.0O0 at this time As the
estimate for the work during the next
fiscal year is S26, 100000. the Secretary
is satisfied that the sale 81, ,Oo0. 900 Will
be ample 10 meet all demands. The
steadily growing surplus in the Treas
ury convinces the Secretary that the
expenses of the canal construction could
be met out of the current receipts. but
he does not believe in that policy. He
will issue bonds equal TO about the
amount needed for canal work during
the next year.
The condition Of the Treasury is a
source of great satisfaction to the Sec
re1ary. II now seems certain that a
surplus Of $4,000. 900. and possibly Si2,-
Gp0, ,000wiu appear at the end of the fis-
cal year or June so. There is now an

Advice to Negroes to Leave This

At the Southwest Georgia Annual

Bishop Turner, who presided, ad-
dressed the conference, saying:

constant press reports and the teei-
ing that seems 10 exist between the
two races, especially in certain Sec
tions OF our county. The Atlanta
episode 4 few weeks ago was the
greatest misfortune that has ever
happened to the two races in this
section. It was all the worse for
the reason tina; the better classes in
both races locked to Atlanta for ID
telligence, forbearance, Christianity
and race respect, the one for the
other. This jargon of bad negroes
was no excuse, for there is lot a
city in this country where the bet
ter classes of the two races are
more rapidly agreeing to stand for
law and order. The riot caused more
suffering, wounded feelings and busi-
ness to be injured, families wreck

pie of my race ! in that city than

State supreme court SO OecloeS IN
Decision Just Rendered.
Thousands Of acres of the most val
liable farm land in Kansas, together
with a large amount of land located
in towns and cities of the state, is
given to the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas railway by decision handed
down Saturday by the Kansas SUI
prenle court, in the case of that rail-
way company against one Watson.
In July, 1866, congress granted to
the Union Pacific Railroad company,
southern branch, now the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas Railway company,
a right Of way 200 feet wide from
said railway to the south line Of the
state, distance of about $50 miles.
Afterwards patents were issued to pri-
vate persons for land through which
the railroad runs without excepting
the right of way. The persons hold
ing these patents have treated the
right of way as bel & only 100 feet
wide. III some cases valuable i'm
provements have been made by them
on the outer fifty feet on each side
Of the railway track and they have
occupied the land without disturbance
for many years. The railroad COM
pany brought suit. to oust these ccc!l-
pants, and the court now decides in
its favor. Antong the larger places
touched by the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas railway are White City, Coun-
Gil Grove. Empcria, Burlington, Cha
