A SWEEPING DECISION.
Soliciting Orders by Mail an IndIcta-
BILE Crime in Georgia.

bic Crime in Georgia.
The most far-reaching appellate
court decision ever rendered in Geor-
gia, or probably in any other south
ern state on the subject of soliciting
orders for whiskey or other intoxi-
eating beverages was that handed
down Friday morning by the Geor-
gia court of appeals in which Judge
Richard B. Russell, with the con-
currence of the entire court, rendered
an opinion to the effect that solicita-
ton of orders by mail in another
state, as we'll as in Georgia by an
individual or corporation, or any
agent of such individual or corpora
ton, is violation of the laws of
the state of Georgia, and any person
making such solicitation is guilty of
crime against the state. The cases
about which the decision was rem
dered are those of Rose against the
state and the R. NJ Rose Co. againt
the state. ..-.,~
Some time ago the plaintiffs in err
rOr in the above cases were tried
in the courts of Barlow county for
violation of the prohibition laws in
Georgia, in that they solicited orders
for whiskey and other intoxicating
beverages by mail from Chattanoo-
ga, Tenn. They were found guilty
and on an appeal in that court an
elaborate hearing was had some
months ago, and since the hearing
the case has been under advisement
of the court, all of whose members
have given to the cases the most
careful study. 1t fell to Judge Rus
sell to prepare the opinion of the
court and it was this opinion which
was handed down Friday morning.

KEEP The KIDNEYS WELL
Health Is Worth Saving, and
Some Dawson People Know
OW to Save 1t.

Many Dawson people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these or
gans need help. Sick kidneys are
responsible for a vast amount of suf-
fering and i'll health, but there is
no need to suffer nor to remain in
danger when all diseases and aches
and pains due to weak kidneys can
be permanently and quickly cured
by the use of DOan's Kidney Pills.
Here is a Dawson citizens recon-
mendatiOn:
Mrs. Annie Potts, Nelson avenue,
Dawson, Ga, says: Il have been
using Doan's Kidney Pills only a
short time, but l can say that they
have already given me more relief
from kidney trouble than anything l
have ever tried. For several years
this complaint has bothered me,
causing severe pains Al the small of
nay back. Recently | decided to try
Doan's Kidney Pills, and sent to the
Peoples Drug Store for them. AS

flied me, and l willingly recommend

DR.. DILLINGHAM'S DIAMONDS
Magnificent Creation Has just Been
Completed for Him by a Gin
Cinnati JeWeler.

CInnati JeWeleP.
The friends in and around Daw-
son of Col. Frank Dillingham;, the
medicine man who has frequently
visited and is well-known here. will
read with much interest the follow
ing from the Cincinnati Post:
"One of the richest specimens of
the jewellers art ever produced in
this country has just been completed
by Cincinnati jeweler and lapi-
Diary. 1t is a magnificent creation
of diamonds and rubies in the form
of a Masonic charm and equals in
splendOr the gems of royalty or the
jewels of an East Indian prince.
The jewel is made in the form of
a Greek cross and presents a solid
front of glistening diamonds, com
pletely concealing the gold base and
dazzling the eye with the brilliant
multi-colored fire of 70 beautifully
matched, blue white diamonds. The
stones weigh a fraction over 70
karats and cost, unset, over SO, 900
The form of double eagle is out
lined on the front side, with the
eyes represented by two rubies of
superb brilliancy, which lend color
to the charm and create a striking
effect in contrast with the white field
of diamonds. The largest stone in
the jewel weighs two and one-quar-
ter karats. 1t has three sections,
each side covered with Masonic en-
blems, and its total value is $4,000
THE charm was designed and
made by Bingaman & Co., local jew
elers and diamond experts, for Col
onel Frank A. Dillingham;, wealthy
manufacturer of proprietary medi-
cines, who INDUCES himself in the
expensive hobby of collecting dia-
monds, goOdly portion of which he
often wears as gracefully as though
it were a single stone"

AN EVIL OF SHIPPED CORN
Wharf Rats Were Never Known of
Here Until Corn Was Shipped
in Carload Lots.

III Carload Lots.
From the Griffin News and Sun.
The latest tale of large rat catch
ing is that Rev. F. A Ethridge of
Miner caught seventeen in one
night in one trap. This is vouched
for by a member of the family, who
first quoted it at eighteen, but when
reminded that it was done by a
preacher took off one for accuracy.
This tops the large catches previous
ly reported.
Other parties in town yesterday
told of these same wharf rats taking
possession of their own and their
neighbors' premises, eating up corn
in the cribs and taking frying size
chickens and broilers on the side I'M
til some of them simply had to quit
raising chickens. They also eat eggs,
and peddlers report this as one rea-
son for the scarcity of both products
over in Line Greek this year. Also
they are more prevalent than usual
in town, and the town rat is hard
to catch even in singles, let alone
in punches. What to do about it
nobody seems to know.
1t is said that this kind of rat was
never known in this section until the
perniciOus practice of shipping in
carloads of corn was started, and
that the rats came in the corn. Thus
does one bad habit breed another.

NEW STATE GAME LAW
SportSmen, If 1t Passes, Must
All Pay License
PROVISIONS OF THE BILL

Plan Is to Have State Game War
den With Sub-Wardens Under His
Direction. Fines and Fees VIII
Support the System.
Georgia's proposed new game and
fish law, introduced and champiOned
by Representative Fraser of Liberty,
is set to come up as the special
order in the house of representa-
tives Immediately following dispO-
sition of the convict question, and
it is probable that one of the early
days of this week will be given to it.
This measure is modelled after the
Alabama law and has grown consid-
erably in favor since the address of
Game and Fish Warden Wallace of
that state before the general assem-
bly,. His discussion and illustration
of it's practical workings made many
friends for it from among those who
were either opposed or Indifferent
The Fraser bill does not inject
many new features into the present
Georgia laws, outside of the chief
new feature of them all-making
provision for the enforcement of the
law. 1t rather unites and brings to-
gether the present Georgia laws re-
lating to fish and game, and in addi-
ton provides for the creation of a
system which will see to it that the
law is Obeyed.
The law proposes to give real pro-
lection to game by the creation of
the office of game and fish warden
who will have under him local war
dens, and the creation of a game
protection fund from the fines and
fOrfeitures resulting from violations
Of the act.
Title Placed in State.
The first section of the bill prac- (.
tically puts the title to all game and |
fish in the state for the purpose of
regulating it's use and disposition |
No person is allowed to have any |
game or fish in his possession except /
in accordance with the terms of the |
act.
Section 4 fixes a fine of $25 for /
unlawful possession of game or for
needlessly destroying the nest or
eggs of any wild bird Section /
makes exception in case of persons ,
actually engaged in scientific re-
searches. These persons must have !
certificates from the game and fish f.
warden and must give bond in the |
sum of $500.
Section 8 exempts English or
house sparrows, Cooper's hawk, |
chicken hawk, goshawk, sharp
Skinned hawk, great horned own and
crow from among the birds protected
by the act.
Section 8, for violation of which
there is fine of $25 to $50 for each
otTense, says:
! 3. The Seasons Prescribed.
mo person or persons shall hunt,

whatever, or have in his possession
