 ing Their Profits.
GEORGIA ROADS PROSPER

Atlanta, February 13-In a statement called forth by a recent declaration of E. H. Hartman here that laws regulat- ing railroads in Georgia should not be harsh, Gov. Hoke Smith today said:
 T believe that the legislation and ad- ministration in Georgia aAecting rail- roads and public service companies has been of great value and that a reaction ary policy would be a public calamity.
 ''The administration has required bet ter roadbeds and better service.
 Tt has prevented the wages of em- ployes from being arbitrarily cut.
 Tt has stopped the free pass evil and reduced the cost of travel to those who pay"
 In his statement the governor asks the question: Have the railroads been crip- pled?" and answers 1t by quoting the statement of net earnings of eight of the largest railroads in the state to June l, 1908, filed with the railroad commission. The figures follow:
 Central of Georgia, g. .4S5 429 12.
 Western and Atlantic, $6S9, ,243. 47.

There is but one canal in Siberia, 62-mile con meeting link between the Obi and Yenisel rivers, and it is not commercial sue cess.
 In July, 1905, large vessels, loaded With iron and coal were seen along the Arctic coast of Siberia on trial trips to deter mine the feasibility of a water route from the Province of Archangel, in RUSSIA to the mouth of the Yenisel, in Siberia. The experiment was successful and it seems clear that for the two unfrozen months of the year 1t Is possible for ships to make their way through the so-called Kara sea between the solid ice pack and the coast without great difficulty
 The mining of gold, iron, coal and cop per is, next to agriculture, the countrys principal industry. Americans are pros pecting in the region over against Alaska. In 1906 over 20, 00O, GOO acres of land under cultivation yielded more than 1000, 900 tons of cereal products, potatoes and hay. As long ago 1901 30,OOO buckets (36 pounds each) were sent weekly to Lon don.

PROMINENT MEN
 OF TOWN INDICTED

New Orleans February 13.-A sensation was created in the United States circuit court this afternoon when the grand jury returned indictments against the mayor and other prominent citizens of Kenner, Jefferson parish, charging them with con- spiring and agreeing to arm themselves with pistols, guns, scissors and other weapons, to injure. oppress and threaten certain voters.
 The indicted men are Mayor Paul Felix, Dave Meyer, John T. Fitzgerald, Moxey Wildenstein and Frank Hall.
 The indictments grow out of the ruth less cutting off of the whiskers of E. A. O'Sullivan, a prominent attorney of New Orleans, at the Kenner polls at the last national election. MT. O'Sullivan went to the polls for the avowed purpose of giv- ing legal advice to certain clients oppos- ing the Felix regime. As he approached the voting booth, he was seized and his flowing whiskers, with statewide repu- tation for their luxuriant growth, were summarily clipped off.
 While this occurrence in itself might not have been proven sufficient basis for indictment of those implicated by the federal grand jury, it is said an incl dental intimidation of other parties, who were entitled to vote at Kenner, kept them from going to the polls and cast ing their ballots, it is alleged.
