At any rate II Is perfectly true that a

Mr.. Ross contemplates presenting that

BAILIFF WOUNDED A NEGRO
Constable Sam McRae Shot John
Weaver, and He May Die. Had
Warrant For Him.

Saturday John Weaver, young
negro employed by Mr.. c. S. Lee of
Doverel at his home as a servant,
was shot by Bailiff S. T. McRae of
that district, and the last report was
that he was in a serious condition
and would probably die.
Bai1iff McRae had a warrant for
Weaver, who had been indicted by
the grand jury for selling whiskey,
and the officer found him at Mr.. Lees
home. The negro ran, and Mr.. Nc
Rae, after following him a short dis
lance, fired his pistol three times,
the last ball taking effect in the back
and lodging against the backbone,
paralyzing the lower part of the body.
The officer says that when he told
Weaver he had a warrant for him
he replied that he would never be
taken, and started toward his house
to get his pistol.

CERTIORARI OVERRULED.

Sentence Imposed For a Violation of
City Liquor Ordinance Is Upheld.
The case of the city of Dawson vs.
Jim Walker, who was charged with a
violation of the city liquor ordinance
and convicted by the mayor and
council in January last, was carried
to the superior court by writ of GER
tiorari, which was heard by Judge
Worrill last week The writ was
overruled and the sentence of the
city municipal court, which imposed
a fine of $75 or a 60-day sentence
on the city changing, will be en-
forced unless the court of appeals re-
verses it. Walkers attorneys have
given notice that the case will be car
ried up TO the court of appeals, as
they are vigorously contesting the
validity of the city ordinance. The
state case against Walker in the city
court was dismissed at the October
term thereof.
The case against John Guerry was
not argued, as it was decided to
await the finding of the court of
appeals in the Walker case, which
involves practically the same ques-
lions.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 30
After campaign in which hundreds
of thousands of dollars have been
spent, and thousands of speakers
have addressed vast audiences, Ala
bama decided yesterday the issue of
constitutional prohibition.
The amendment has been defeated
by the decisive majority of 10000,
and the full returns may increase
this.
The indications are that the
amendment lost in a majority of the
counties.
The anti-amendment leaders claim
that the result will be a landslide,
and that the majority against it will
be larger than they had expected.
The amendment leaders were disap-
pointed at the early returns.
While women and children were
at the polls in many places their
presence did not affect the vote to
any extent There was no disorder
or excitement.

HODGE GUILTY OF PERJURY
White Man Convicted and Sentenced
To Four Years i'll the Peniten-
tiary. Many Criminal Cases.

Superior court convened Monday
morning, and the entire day was con-
sumed in the trial of Homer Hodge,
white man, who was indicted two
years ago for perjury. The indict-
ment was based on evidence that was
given in a divorce suit.
The jury returned verdict of
guilty, and Judge Worrill sentenced
Hodge to the penitentiary for four
years. His attorney filed a motion
for new trial. During the trial
of the case the court room was
cleared of all except the interested
parties.
A Big Criminal Docket.
Tuesday morning other felony
cases were taken up, but none of
special interest were called.
The criminal docket is especially
heavy, and if it is anything like
cleared an adjourned term will have
to be called and two weeks of crimi-
nal court held.
The grand jury has broken all pre-
vious records in the history of the
county, having found between rs and
100 true bills. 1t is said that of
this large number not single bill is
against resident of the Bronwood
district.
The grand jury expects to adjourn
today or tomorrow.
Several Murder Cases.
There are several murder cases for
trial.
The one of most general interest
is that of Mrs. L. ]. Atkinson,
who is charged with having admin
istered strychnine to her brother-in-
law, VIM. Glaze. This case is set
for Thursday.
When the grand jury returned
bill of Indictment against Mrs. At
kinson she was not again taken in
custody, as is customary, but Judge
Worrill issued an order that she re-
main at liberty under the $4,000
bond which she had given some time
before.

A Statement From Mr.. Davis.
Mr.. j. H. Davis, the manager of
the telephone company, has given
The News this statement: when
he learned of what Gilchrist had
done he ascertained the particulars
from the operators, Immediately dis
charged him and advised the opera
tors of his action, when the chief
operator suggested that in considera-
ton for the subscribers and the in
terest of the company he be retained
by the company until some one could
be secured to fill his place (as there
was no one here who could do sol q,
with the understanding that he was
to have no further control over or
management of the operating room.
For this liberal spirit the ladies were
thanked and assured that GiIchrist s
place would be filled at the earliest
possible moment. Mr.. Davis says he
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1909-12-01

only regrets now that he did not let
him go at first. 1t was the inten-
ton, until the above suggestion was
made, to remove him Immediately.
No one regrets this unfortunate af-
fair more than Mr. Davis and every
one connected with the telephone
company.
Came From the North.
Gllchrist is young man about 25
years of age, and his home is in De-
troit, Mich. He came to Dawson sew
eral months ago in the employ of the
Western Electric Co. to assist in in
stalling the new plant of the Daw-
son Telephone Company, and at the
completion of this work, being COM
petent and expert telephone man, he
was employed by the local company
to superintend their mechanical de-
partment.
1t is said that he attempted to ex-
cuse his conduct on the ground that
he was from the north, and was not
familiar with the customs and con-
ditions in the south, although he had
been here for several months.
Wired For His Trunk.
Saturday morning DR.. c. F.
Crouch, at whose home Gilchrist
boarded, received this telegram, sent
from Atlanta, from him:
All fine. Send trunk by express
to terminal station
He was young man of good ad-
dress, and had been received in some
OF the best homes of the city.
Operators Returned.
The operators all returned to their
posts Saturday at noon, and the
former pleasant and harmonious re-
lations again prevail. Everything is
running smoothly at the exchange,
and the usual good service is being
given.
