WORTH OF RAILWAYS.

Estimated money value to farmers by
shorter hauls of grain to new railroad:
Average cultivated quarter sends 20
four-horse loads of grain to market an
nually.
One man and four horse team plowing
five acres per day at el.5O-s7.50 per day
cost of hauling grain with one four horse
team.
Therefore on haul of ~one trip per day
20 four horse loads cost in plowing $I50
annually per quarter section.
Four to six mile haul, two trips per
day. saves one half time or S75 per quar-
ter per annum which pays per cent in
terest on Sl071, or an increased value of
over $3.50 per acre.
Two to four mile haul, three trips
daily, saves two-thirds time or 800 per
quarter per annum which pays per
cent interest on sl429, or an increased
value of nearly 50 per acre.
Two or less mile haul, four trips daily,
saves three fourths time or e112.5O,
which pays Z per cent interest on sl607
per quarter per annum, or an increased
value of over $40 per acre.

Our democratic friends in the county
have apparently walked up to the fact
that there is to be an election in the
near pretty soon and that they should
be trotting out some candidates to pre-
vent the republicans having walk over.
They are doing it in the same old way,
the primary law to the contrary not
withstanding (and that is where they
are sensible, too) and "part Of the COM
mistee'' has met and made nominations.
In the absence of convention law that
is the best way to do, though Of course
it is not nearly as representative as q
county convention. It will always be
thus with a minority party under pri-
mary law. They can't afford to use
their minority strength in fighting each
other in primary election. It is only
the majority party that can afford to
have two elections in one year. Almost
invariably under the primary law the
primary election for the minority will
be but q formality while for the major
ity it will mean fight.

One Of the peculiar phases of the

so pertinently expresses it. Mr.. Hans.
brough will have unite following there

Then Hon. NJ. N. johnson will like.

CITY FINANCES.

A somewhat delayed financial state
ment Of the city is published in this
issue and will be of interest to the citi-
zen taxpayer. The delay was caused by
the fact that it was thought better to
complete several important financial
matters which were on hand at the reg
ular time of the close of the fiscal year,
SO as to give clearer and better under
standing OF affairs.
The most important items and which
really are the summing up of the years.
progress are in the items of outstanding
warrants and cash on hand.
A year ago the published report
showed sl96O.75 in outstanding warrants
with cash on hand of ss2958. The
present statement shows outstanding
warrants to the amount of S613S5 and
cash on hand amounting to $501. IS.
That is, at the present time we could
pay off practically all of our floating
debt with the cash on hand and the
balance in short time. It has, how
ever, been thought best to keep enough
cash on hand to meet current expenses,
as the parties holding the out warrants
do not desire the money. OF the out
warrants 5000 is the balance yet due on
the city hall.
During the current year there have
been some notable permanent improve
ments which called for considerable ex-
#penditure, notwithstanding the good
showing in paying off the old debts.
Among these are a $40 new chimney
587 for additional chairs for the city
hall; e265 for new crossings and other
street improvements. Also the gift of
the fire department of s245 Of their in
surance fund money made it possible to
add chemical engine to the city fire
apparatus. The Ball park and s1l9.50
in cash is also gift to the city by the
Park Association and the Business
Mems Association. !.
The bonded debt Of q, 600, which was
overdue, has been changed to state
bonds payable in ten years at per cent
interest and sinking fund Of $500 a
year provided for its payment.
We think on the whole that the tax
payers will feel pleased at the showing.

ALEX. MCKENZIE.

In the coming convention at Minot
Mr.. Mckenzie will be both an issue and
factor. This is something rather new
for the old time boss. twill be some-
what Of novel role for MIN. Not a lit
tie of his strength in the, past in this
state has been in the fact that person
ally he hiss never appeared as an Office
seekrr though he has always managed
to hold more power than any Office
holder.
While even as yet, he will not come
before the convention as seeking Office,
still through the peculiar mutations of
politics, he will there be placed before
the bar Of public opinion in the most
prominent manner possible.
The progressives at present do not ap-
pear to have majority Of the delegates
elected and to be elected, but it is quite
possible that on q purely Mckenzie Issue
that Mr.. Mckenzie may find himself in
minority. And if there is public ex-
preston Of such a fact forced in the con-
vention-it will be the most bitter medi-
cine that the great chief has ever been
compelled to swallow. Mr.. McKenzie's
most vital point is his personal pride.
The Nome business hurt him badly, but
to be discredited in his own state, for
which he. has undoubtedly done so
muchyes unseltishly in many cases
will be gall and wormwood to his proud
spirit.
Nobody knows this fact better than
his enemies, and the men whom he in
his days Of power turned down and out,
and these have reason t. believe that at
the convention they will at least have
power e make the naughty Aleck bow

JOY WITHIN THE RANKS
AT ORDER FOR SHEETS
Travelling Men Rejoicing in
Victory.

Several travelling statesmen stop
ping over in Americus yeterday were
discussing with greatest interest the
passage by the Legislature of the bill
providing for clean sheets and tow
els at contry feed stalls where they
have to put up and pay 81 per day
for the usual accommodations.
And in some of the larger towns
the hotel chinch racks are quite as
bad from the standpoint of sheets.
you fellows who sleep in the
same bed every night, and at home,
think it's a great joke for the Legis-
lature to pass a law compelling no.
tells to have clean sheets.
In a city we don't have any
trouble, as hotels as rule are
of the class that do not expect three
or four guests to use the same
sheets, but in the smaller towns it is
something fierce" as Hooligan would
say
After getting into bed in most of
these smaller hotels and having it
impressed on you that you are not
the person who has slept beneath
those same sheets since they left the
laundry, you lay and wonder if the
last fellow had smallpox or only
tuberculosis. It's a pleasant feeling,
all right
If you happen to be the fourth
occupant of the bed, and the prev
ious ones usage Of the sheets is
manifest, you have the privilege OF
telling the clerk about it. There is
only one hotel, so you either sleep
in that bed or take a moonlight stroll
in the back yard The clerk doesn't
care"
The bill will soon become a law in
Georgia, and the drummers are re-
joicing accordingly.

WINDSOR HOTEL TO
60 ON THE MARKET
Stockholders Will Consider
Question Aug. 20.

For the purpose of considering the
matter of selling the Windsor Hotel
a meeting of the stockholders has
been called for next Thursday morn
ing in the office of President Craw-
ford Wheatley, of the hotel company
The stockholders will be asked to au-
thorize the directors to make the sale
and advertise the property.
The purpose of the sale is to ge,
the property into the hands of some
individual who will look after it more
closely than a company is able to
do The hotel, according to a state
ment of one of the stockholders, is
in need of repair, and the company
is unable to assume further liabili-
ties in connection with the property.
While the property is earning more
than enough to pay all charges, any
improvements would have to come
out of the pockets of the stockholders
In the event of its sale no change
whatever would be made in the pres
ent lease or in any contracts now
running.
THE hotel was originally built at
cost of $14S,000," said Pres Wheat
ley yesterday Later it was sold
for $4,000 and then again for $43,-
000 1t is a fine proprty. At the
present time the hotel is sadly in
need of repairs.
81 have fully investigated the af-
fairs of the company and the pro
perty, and have advised that the best
interests of the stockholders and
creditors will be best conserved by
the sale of the property l will lay
the facts before the stockholders,
with my conclusions, and ask that
the directors be empowered to place
the property on the market
1t is much to be desired by the
citizens of Americus that the hotel
will pass into the hands of a single
individual who will conduct the pro
perty to the best interests of all
THE present lease will not of
course be disturbed 1t has two or
three years more to run and a new
owner might still continue to lease
the property after the present lease
expires. The improvements needed
would of course have to be made by
the owner and not by the lessee.

ALABAMA COMPANY
LIKES AMERICUS
Negotiations on for RemOy-
al to This Point.

1t was expected that a representa-
tive of an Alabama manufacturing
concern would be present at the meet
ing of the Board of Trade Tuesday
night to discuss the matter of removal
to this city. But telegram re-
ceived by Secretary Crockett during
the morning stated that it would be
impossible for a member of the com
pany to be present. A letter was
received yesterday explaining why
the trip could not be made, and ask
ing that the Board of Trade send
some one to Alabama to investigate.
One of the requirements of the re-
moval is the placing of a good block
of stock in Americus One investor
has already indicated a willingness to
take nearly half of the subscription
required, and it is believed possible
to place the rest of the stock
The company manufactures tools,
their chief product being patent
shovel, which is self-sharpening. This
shovel already has a wide sale With
the enlargement which the additional
capital would give, it is calculated
that 300 men would be employed
In regard to the matter of sending
a representative to Alabama no action
will likely be taken until the next
meeting of the Board.
