RAISING MONEY FOR INSTITUTE
Negroes Throughout Southern GeOr-
gia Coming to its Aid.

The colored people are enthusiastic
over the offer made Americus Institute
by the General Education Board.
They have already gone about raising
money to meet the first condition,
which is gift of one thousand dollars
on condition that five hundred dollars
be raised by the Institute.
Notwithstanding this is time of the
year when little money is among the
negroes, Principal Redd1ck is sure that
he will raise this first instalment by
the first of August without appealing
to the white people for any part of the
amount.
Alta meeting held in Dawson last Sun
day, there was raised more than hun
dred and subscription of nearly five
hundred dollars, most of which is to be
paid by the first of August.
There are to be held three meetings
in various parts of Southwest Georgia
next Sunday, and a neat sum is expec-
ted from that source.

THE DEFENDANT WAS DISCHARGED
After Hearing of the Case in Police
Court.

The case of Mess. j. F. Holmes of
Athens, George Wheatley Jr. and Frank
Lamar, charged with fighting, was
tried yesterday in police court and re-
suited IN the acquittal of both Mr..
Holmes and Mr.. WheatIey, while fine
of SIS was imposed upon Mr.. Lamar for
his participation in the affair. The
sensational hearing attracted quite a
crowd, and all the testimony was
listened to with great interest. Mr..
Holmes made full statement of his
conduct in the case, which seemed to
exonerate him of any intention to give
affront to the young lady whom he
presumed he knew and to whom he
had spoken at the ice cream parlor,
which act was resented by the other
young "men, Mess. Wheatley and
Lamar. The fine imposed upon Mr..
Lamar was promptly paid and the
case ended.

MASONS OF THIRO
DISTRICT TO MEET
AmeriCuS Team to Exem-
plify Master S Degree
Al THE MEETING AT ELLAVILLE
Representatives From Eleven Counties
to Meet Next Month to Work for,
UnifiCdtiOn and Enthusiasm
in the Lodges.
AT THE MEETING AT ELLAVILLE

The seventh annual communication
OF the Third Masonic District Con-
vention will be held at Ellaville on
July "a and 25.
The third district embraces Sumter,
Wilcox, Crisp, Turner, Dooly, Hous-
ton, Taylor, Schley, Stewart, Webster
and Lee counties. There are about
twenty lodges in the district. Mr..
A. B. Howard, of Americus. is secre-
tary. The other officers are:
F. M. ChaIker, w. M. Hawkinsville;
B. B. Wipderly, S. W., Jefferson
vile;
DIR. H. A. Mobley, j. w, Vienna;
Sibley S. Fort, Treasurer, Lumpkin;
j. A. Mcdonald, S. d., Plains;
j. 7. Holder, j. D., Lump KIN;
j. Il. Holloway, S. s., Danville;
j. 7. Graham, j. S., Unadilla;
l.. Nobbs, Chaplain, Vienna
The purpose of the district conven-
ton is to improve and unity the work
of the order and arouse greater
interest in the different lodges.
At the Ellaville meeting a team
made up from the two Americus
lodges will exemplify the Masters
degree. Othor teams will exemplify
the Entered Apprentice and Fellow
craft degrees.
Each lodge is entitled to two repre-
sentatives. The Americus lodges
have not yet elected these represen-
tatives. All Masters of Lodges, and
Past Masters, are also allowed to vote
on any questions that come up. Ma
sons generally are invited to attend the
convention. but cannot vote.
1t is quite probable that number
of Masons from Americus will be
present at the convention, in addition
to the regular representative of the
local lodges.

Credentials OF Delegates.

The national committee has much
to do with crede ntials in the makeup
of the preliminary lists of delegates.
In many ways it will have an i'm
portant bearing on the result. 1t may
be said that the only important work
being done by the administration
managers just now relating to the
convention of affects the control of
the national committee, and the
managers would not be surprised if
several candidates joined their forces
in an attempt to wrest control of the
committee from the President, believ-
ing that in so doing they would be
crippling Taft's chances.
President Rooseyelt's latest private
utterances before he left Washington
all indicated that he still desired that
Secretry Taft be nominated and was
confident that the latter would win.
He intimated that the administration
forces would hardly get busy before
autumn, but that something would be
doing before the leaves began to fall.
Gen. Jones S. Clarkson, who may
play an important part for the admin
istration, particularly in the South was
here last week in conference with
Secretary Cortelyou. He expressed
this opinion, based upon long politi-
cal experience, that the early boom
generally died a-boomin," and obs
served that next year would be early
enough to begin work.

THE ASSEMBLY IN SESSION
Georgia LEGISLATURE Has Convened at the Cap
itaI.
ATLANTA is OVERRUN WITH MANY VISITORS
Session Formally Opened Wednesday and Will Enact Many Reform
Laws.

Atlanta, Ga. June 26: The General
Assembly convened today, and the
most important session in many years
is now under way. There were very
few vacant seats in either House or
Senate at rollcall this morning.
All of the few absentees will be
present by tomorrow.
Already the city is filled to over
flowing with visitors coming to the
opening of the legislative session and
to attend the Inauguration of Governor
Smith on Saturday.
Hotels and boarding houses are
already taxed, and the standing room
only" sign will be displayed before
that date.
This session of the legislature, as
has been expected for some time, will
be probably the most important that
has been held IN several years.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-06-27

1t promises to be memorable from
the fact that it marks the beginning of
the administration of Governor Hoke
Smith, who will seek to bring about
in carrying out the pledges OF his cam
paign, quite a number of reforms.
Legislation particularly as to rail-
road regulation and control and negro
disfranchiseme ent will be watched with
great interest.
In line with the plans of the COVER
nor, it is considered probable that the
railroad commission will be reorgan-
lied, and the conduct of its affairs
arranged on a somewhat different
basis than has hitherto existed.
The new legislature, as is known, is
largely made up of Hoke Smith sup
porters during the last campaign, and
that the new executive will have little,
if any, trouble In putting through his
measures, seems certain.

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it a sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn, In the stomach ana digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are exactly akin to the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that If this stomach churn is foul 1t
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of a foul stomach is not alone
TIE bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
ination of disease throughout the body.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
It does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way it cures blotches,
pimples. eruptions, scrofulous swellingS,
sores. or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.

ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour

SMILE AT TALES OF WEAKNESS

Washington, D, c., June 26.-Storise
of a weakening in the Taft boom are
smiled at by the administration Presi-
dent makers, They are not working
on the Taft boom at present, and they
are ignoring the efforts of the opposing
forces.
Secretary Taft will be back from the
Philippines about the time of the meet
ing of the National Republican Com
mittee next December, and that is lex
pected to be the signal for the 1naugur-
alton of an active Taft campaign.
His friends say heIwilI return with
the additional prestige of having per-
sonally directed the first efforts at self
government in the Philippines, and it
is by no means certain that he may not
play an important part in diplomatic
negotiations with Japan. The elections
for members of the Philippines legisla-
lature will take place in the autumn
and Secretary Taft will be present.
Attempt n Chairmanship.
The meeting of the national commit
tee, which will be held in December,
just after Secretary Taft's return, will
be important in more ways than one in
its bearing upon the struggle for the
Republican nomination. 1t is likely
than an attempt will be made by the
anti-RooseveIt forces to capture the
committee organization, oust the acting
chairman, Harry S. New, and elect
Senator Nathan B. Scott, OF West Vir-
ginia, or some other supposed anti-ad-
ministration man.
An attempt was made by the Fair
banks managers to unhorse New some
months ago and place Scott in the sad
die. 1t failed. however. A petition
was circulated by Senator Hepburn, of
Idaho, pronounced anti Roosevelt
man, calling meeting of the commit
tee. Senators Hepburn and Scott and
one other member of the national COM
mittee signed it. The purpose was to
electiSenator Scott chairman of the
committee. The failure to secure
enough signatures discouraged Senator
Hepburn, and after a conference be-
tween Vice President Fairbanks, Scott,
and Hepburn, the petition was retired
from circulation.

Rooseveltians on Guard.

This incident served the purpose of
putting the Roosevelt managers on their
guard, and attention has since been d.
rected to the work of lining up the ma
tionaI committee. John G. Capers, the
South Carolina member, who had been
cooperating with the anti -administra-
tion party, was brought into line with
the temporary appointment as Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue. Pearl
Wight, of Louisiana, will succeed Cap.
ers in December.
If the Roosevelt managers dominate
the committee, New will be continued
as chairman, and the convention will
be located in a city where anti -Roose-
welt sentiment will not be demonstra-
tive in the press and among the holders
of convention tickets. It will mean al
so that the temporary organization, an
important matter, will be effected by
the Presidents friends.
This carries with it the right to make
the keynote speech and is important in
other respects. There have been COM
plants in the past that Republican con-
ventions have been handicapped in thier
work by the attitude of the local press
and by local POLITICAL sentiment. 1nthe
convention of 1888 the friends of Gen
Benjamin Harrison were so irritated
over the ro-Gresham tone OF the Chic
ago press that Gen. John G. New, the
Harrison manager, printed special edi-
tions of the Indianapolis Journal and
rushed them to Chicago on a special
train in order, as Re maintained, that
his candidate might have a fair hear
ing through the press. The President. s
friends are determined to guard against
locating the convention in hostile
community.
