WANT ASSAY OFFICE
IN NORTH GEORGIA
The Report Shows Large
Amount of Gold Is
Mined There.

Georgia IS getting advertising as one
Of the gold-prOducing regions Of the
United States. Hitherto. Georgia has
been thought OF largely as one Of the
Southern States where cotton and corn
flourish, but 1t hasn't been given much
attention as a gold center. But a bill
just reported from the House Committee
on Coinage. Weights and Measures. By
Representative Mckinley Of Illinois. en-
phaslzes the fact that there is a con
siderable amount of the yellow metal
produced in this Commonwealth.
The bill IN question provides for the
establishment Of an assay office at
Gainesville. Hall County. Hall County
is in the northeastern part OF the State.
in the mountain district OF Georgia II
appears that In Hall County and the
eleven counties in the immediate vicin-
ity the gold production is considerable.
According TO the report Of the COM
mittee tie State Of Georgia has pro-
duced zoIc in the last ten years 10 the
value Of 81. I35, 200. Most of this was OBJ
tained IN the vicinity OF the proposed
assay office. There is every reason
to believe that this amount will be
steadily and materially in the
future" says the committee in its re-
port.
The cOmmitte says il has been shown
to its satisfaction there are individual
miners in large numbers in this section
OF Georgia who are forced to sell their
product to local merchants for less than
its actual value The merchants in
turn send the gold to the assay office
at Philadelphia. 1T is believed" saws
the committee, that the establishment
of an assay Office at Gainesville. at a
small cost. viii encourage and foster
individual mining and stimulate the pro-
duction Of gold which abounds in great
quantities IN this section of Georgia"
1t is pointed ou- that the gold pro-
ductiOn in Georgia exceeds that Of North
Carolina or South Carolina North Car
DINA has an assay office.

The DoctOred Liability Bill,

Some surprise was expressed
when the House Judiciary Commit
tee suddenly labored and brought
forth an employers liability bill.
More than that, it came out under
the name of the Stirling-La Toilette
measure, which added to the sur
prise, for the Stirling-La Toilette
bill is decidedly the favored one of
the pending measures with organ
lied labor. Nobody had dreamed
that the committee would be able to
agree on a bill on so important a
subject.
But most casual study of the bill
which has been reported is calcu-
lated to explain a good deal. The
bill that comes from the committee
brings its name along, and not much
else. The committee has inserted
in it that effective denaturing
phrase, when the negligence of the
employer is gross and that of the
employe is slight" which amounts
to taking most of the virtue out of
the measure. On top of this, the
committee has stricken out the re
quirement of the original bill that
all questions of fact shall go to the
jury for decision,
The bill, as reported by the House
committee, might be a good enough
bill to squeak through a Presiden-
tial election, but all the same it is
a fake, fraud, and a delusiOn. 1t
is the form without the substance.
II ought 10 be promptly vetoed by
the President, if it ever should pass,
and every legislator whose vote pre-
fers it to the bill which has come
out of the Senate Committee on
Education and Labor ought to be
opposed by the votes of labor.
This is the place for Samuel
Gompers and his organization to
get busy. They have a good case.
They ought to make the most of it.
The business of dehorning legisla-
ton, so that there viii be nothing
left of it except a sounding title
ought to be stopped, and right now
is a most excellent time to stop it.
