AND THE COMMISSION ACCEPT
ED THE TERMS 1T OFFERED.
Southern Will Give Two and a Half

Il
Cent Fare Trial, But Does Not
Agree to Continue 1t.
Final adjustment of the passenger
rate matter between the state of
Georgia and the Southern Railway
has been made. The agreement
comes in the shape of an acceptance
by the railroad commission of
proposition on the part of President
Finley of the Southern to put into
effect on April LIST the following
rates:
A fiat 2 u cent rate on all the
lines of the Southern railroad for in
tra-state travel, provided that no
charges shall be required to be less
than ten cents.
Thousand-mile books, intrastate,
and interchangeable, at two cents per
mile, limited to one individual, and
good only in the hands of the pur-
chaser.
Notwithstanding books, intra-
0CdIS, Interchangeable WIN SUCH VI
the solvent roads of the state as will
consent, at two cents per mile, good
for heads of firms and employees, not
exceeding a total NUMBER of five, the
names to be furnished at the time
of the purchase of the mileage book
and entered thereon.
FfVe-hundred-mile books at IA
cents per mile, good for heads OF
families and dependent members
thereof, intrastate and non-inter-
changeable, the names of the families
to be furnished at the time of the
purchase and entered thereon.
Mr.. Finley proposed that these
new rates should remain in effect
for period of twelve months, SO
that the plan might be given a thor
ough trial, and with the understand
ing that the railroad by such trial
valves no right to relief should the
rates prove to be unjust or confisca-
tory. This proposal was accepted by
the railroad commission.

1t is very important, and in fact
it is absolutely necessary to health
that we give relief to the stomach
promptly at the first signs of trouble
which are belching of gas, nausea,
sour stomach, headache, irritability

ings that the stomach has been mis-
treated; it is doing too much work,

WILL BOB BERNER RUN?
A Political Tip That Is of Interest
Comes From the Capital.

An interesting rumor from Atlanta
is that Colonel Robert l.. Berner of
Monroe, until the first of the year
a member of Governor Smiths law
firm, when he withdrew to practice
on his own account, may himself get
into the race for governor in the
event Governor Smith should see fit
to announce for the United States
senate, as it is rumored he will short
ly do.
The Griffin News and Sun credits
to a prominent citizen of Forsyth,
Colonel Berner's home, and a friend
of the colonels, the apparently well
grounded opinion that the latter ex-

Material hOnors.
A Candidate Once Before.
Colonel Berner, as is well-known,
was a candidate for governor in
1898, and came second in the three
cornered race with Allan d. Cand-
Ter and Spencer r. Atkinson.
Neither Berner or Atkinson got many
votes, however, as the state went al
most unanimously for the One-Eyed
Pillow Boy of Pigeon Roost.

A Candidate Once Before.
BARRETT RESIGNED AS TRUSTEE
He Had No Suggestion to Make to
the Governor.

Charles S. Barrett of Union City,
national president of the Farmers
Union, called on Governor Smith
Wednesday and rendered his resigna-
ton as a trustee for the Sixth
congressional district agricultural
school.
He resigned on account of the fact
that he has just moved out of the
district, from Epson to Coweta coun-
ty. Asked by the governor to sug
gest a man to be named in his place
he said he would prefer to leave that
matter to the governor.

Cow Demands Regularity.

The dairy COW is a good timekeeper
and knows very we'll when milking
time comes. If she is neglected and
allowed to go far beyond the regular
time she begins to worry and loss fol-
lows. There are some COWS that GER
tain mixers can never get clean. They
milk out all that flows readily and
strip around once or twice, then cali it
finished. With some COWS this an
swers. but with others the mixer must
reach we'll up on the udder and work
it with sort Of kneading process. A
little manipulation of this sort will
cause the whole quantity to flow into
the teats, whereas without it there will
be from gill to pint of the richest
milk left in the udder every time, which
means a prematurely dry COW.

He Was Careful of His Voice.

Brignoli. the famous tenor, was
very susceptible to fiattery, and it Is
said that once in New York when the
orchestra vigorously applauded one OF
his favorite songs he was so touched
that he came down to the footlights
and invited them all to a champagne
supper at the Everett House. The
supper cost him $500.
Brignoli was very careful OF his
voice and was terribly afraid of drafts.
1t was once stated that during the
winter it always took him three-quar-
tiers of an hour to get from his room
to the street. First he would on
leaving his room pace the hall for ten
minutes to get acclimated. He then
descended to the lobby, where the tenn

twenty minutes there. He then ven

take a recess of fifteen minutes so as
to enable him to go across the street to
"see man. H. R. Tracey. the editor
of the Washington Republican, was in
the audience and. seeing an opportuni-
ty to improve upon the joke. penciled
these lines and sent them to the plat
form:
Dear Artemus-lf you will place
yourself under my guidance. I'll take
you to see man. without crossing the

but with much amusement awaited the

Successful Municipal
Lighting Plant.

The municipal affairs of Deca-
tur have never before been in such
creditable condition as at the
present time, and there are but
few people who have come to a
full realization of what recogni-
tion our enterprising town COM
mands. There are various reas-
ons why Decatur people are entit-
led to display their pride, for the
holders of the city reins are har-
moniously working together for
the welfare of the citizens they
represent, and much has been ac-
complished during the past few
years that plays it's part in the
progress of the city. The electric
light and power plant, which was
built in 1897, is today one of the
most up to date in this section of
the State. The city has invested
500, 900 in this institution, and it's
equipment could not be duplicated
for fully one third more than that
amount to-day. For eight years
this plant was operated without
tax being LEVIED upon the citizens
for street lighting purposes, and
aside from a few Thousand dollars
in floating orders, the Decatur
electric light plant is entirely out
of debt, notwithstanding the fact
that $S, 900 was spent last year for
new 500 horse power engine and
three phase dynamo, which is
suitable for all power purposes.
There are more than seven hum
dred electric light consumers in
Decatur, who on an average pay
$1,000 per month in the city cof-
fers. This is remarkably good
and reflects credit upon the coun-
ciImen who have had the plant
properly equipped SO that the
business could be handled.
The sum of $500 is paid each
month to the employees of the plant
and this is reasonably y small
amount in consideration of the
fact that power and lighting ser.
vice is given twenty tour hours
each day. An evidence of the rap
i'd advancement of electricity Is
the fact that electric power is used
in the operation of nearly all
the industries of our city,
including the Krick Il Tyndall
brick mill, the Decatur Pro-
duce Co., A. Van Camp foundry, |
Glove factory, Wemhof |
works, Decatur Fur
mace factory, Coppock Motor Car
Co., Schmitt Packing house, Demo
crat office, f. Il. Smith and sever
al others. The Ward Fence Co., |
will also use electric power in their
new plant. The present council
men realized the growing condi.
tion of electricity and accordingly |
they provided the opportunities
before mentioned. However, i'll
business increases as rapidly in
the future as 1t has during the
past year, it will be necessary to
make an addition to the already
plant. Fifty new con
sumers were added to the list dur
ing the past month, and this is in
deed rapid pace. Farmers liv-
ing within radius of one and one
half miles from the city can Sc
cure electric power and lights, as
service lines have already been
