Intense Excitement.

Madison, Ga. May 29.--Intense ex-
citement prevails at Thomson and Tn
ion Point, on the Georgia railroad,
and there is q firm determination that
no trains save those carrying the
mails solely will be allowed to pass
those points. The action of the rail-
road in sending mail trains out with
negro firemen is bitterly resented, and
it is feared these trains are not safe
from attack.
There are many negroes residing in
these towns along the Georgia rail
road and to a great majority of them
the manifestations of excitement upon
the part of the whites are not under
stood 1t is current among some of
the blacks that race trouble has brok-
en- out in atlanta and that several
hundred negroes have been killed.
There is nu denying the fact that it
is imperative that something in the
way Of settling the strike must be
done without delay else there prob
ably will be bloodshed.

the government of the silver service
presented by the state of Mississippi

Mr. Blake wrote:
'The resolution meets with my ap-

Glynn county's new jail is now rap

ed to the county when one was needed

Just what will be done with the Jail

it is believed that the building will
be converted into fire department
headquarters. With the expenditure Of
a reasonable sum of money adequate
fire department headquarters can be
made out of the present Jail build

1t is thought that the matter will
be taken up by the city council as

While no definite date has yet been

We're always satisfied that the trolley
line would be constructed within the
time prescribed in the franchise
granted last September, there were
those "croakers' who predicted that
the line would never be built. that
the granting of the franchise was a
fake, etc, but little attention was
paid to them and the beginning of
actual work on the line will probably
stop their "croaking"
The equipment purchased for the
line is the very best. Seventy pound
steel rails will be used. Five cars
have already been purchased. Four
of these, probably. will be on a daily
run, while the additional car will be
kept for emergencies and to handle
crowds. The cars will be of the very
latest design. The engine, the con-
tract for which was closed last week
with an Atlanta firm, viii be shipped

What Taft Said of
A Lumber Tariff

Washington, May 29.-The estate
ment made by President Taft in one
of the speeches which he delivered
OF his southern trip, that he could see
little difference, so far as a result is
concerned, in the republican advocacy
of a duty of 81, on lumber for pro-
lection, and democratic advocacy OF
a similar duty for purposes of rev
enue, has called attention to fact
which has become more and more evil
dent as the discussion of the tariff
bill has progressed in the senate.
This fact is that the democrats as
a party so far as the senate is con-
cerned at least, have abandoned their
once vigorous demand for free raw
material. Less than twenty years ago
in their national campaign the dem
ocrats went before the country, de-
manding free lumber, free hides, free
wool, free iron ore and that other So
called raw materials be placed upon
the free list. When they bad control
of both the senate and the house and
the presidency, they failed to place
any of these articles on the free list,
and now the argument for free raw
materials has been almost entirely
aropped When the vote was taken
in the senate to place iron ore on the
free list, more than half the democrats
opposed it, Senator Bailey among them
leading the fight for a duty on this
raw material. At the same time the
Texas senator announced that he
would vote for duty on hides and
wool as long as protection was main
tanned on the finished products of
these articles He will have the
support of several other leading dem
ocrats on these schedules, and of some
of them on the lumber schedule. It
is probable that more democrats will
vote for higher duty on lumber than
that imposed by the Payne bill, than
upon any one of the other schedules
with the possible exception of iron
ore. Their attitude upon these ques-
tions shows the change which has
come over the democrats in tariff
matters duri"~ &c rent years.
At the same time there is much
