officials Of the Minneapolis & st.

Theodore p. Shonts, president, Ed

in a special train on Friday. The
officials were on a general inspection

they came to decide upon the practi-

the construction of the roads cbntem-

over the old ""Pierre grade," built

stated that owing to the lateness of

contractors who would agree
to push the work, and that the COM

disappointment not only to Aberdeen
and Pierre, but to a number of in

counting on more direct connection

INV1 pVV UNI Is
J. E. SHEPPARD.

Yesterday Col J. E. Sheppard form.
ally entered the field as a candidate
for the senatorial honor from this dis.
trict.
His is the first aSaouncement in the
legislative race. II is regarded as
not improbable that there will be pc
opposition to him in the senatorial
race.
Col. Sheppard made a highly ac-
ceptable representative in the lasI
House. He not only ably represented
Sumter county in all matters of a To-
cal character, but he took a prominent
position in the debates on statewide
questions and secured an unusual de
gree of prominence for a first-termer
Equipped with the experience OBJ.
tanned in two years service in the
house, and with the benefits that ac-
crue from an extensive circle Of
friends III the general assembly, he
now offers for the senatorship.
There is hardly any doubt but that il
he represents this district in the next
Senate he will fill important commit
tee positions, will take a leading part
in the affairs of the Senate, and re-
fleet credit upon the district. With
ability, experience, the capacity for
work and the willingness to work, nc
district in the state would be better
represented than would the Thirteenth
with Col. Sheppard speaking for it on
the floor of the Senate.
Now that he has announced def
nitely as an aspirant for the honor
there is hardly any doubt but
that his friends throughout the coun-
ty will be at work for him with vigor
from now until election day.
No definite announcements have yet
been made with regard to the races
for the House of Representatives Ii
has been geherally understood for
some time that e. A Nesbitt, ESQ.
would be candidate. Col Crawl
Wheatley has also been approached t.
become candidate, but he has not
yet concluded to enter the field. II
would not be surprising, though, &C
see both of these gentlemen as candi-
dates. Probably another name may
be added to the list before the primary
rolls around, making a genuine fighl
for the seats in the lower house.
With Col. Sheppard in the Senate
and two strong men in the House
Sumter county will have a representa-
ton equal to that of any county in
Georgia.

SHOPPERS ARE TARDY IN
MAKING THEIR PURCHASES
Closing of Stores ut O'clock Is
Thus Delayed.

When the 6 o'clock closing move
ment was launched a few weeks ago
shoppers here showed consideration
for the employees by completing their
purchases before 6, thus permitting
the prompt closing of the stores. Re-
Gently, however, they have grown
less considerate, and oftimes now the
closing of a large store is delayed and
the impatient, tired salespeople held
there simply because some bridge
whistler, who has done nothing all
day, insists upon matching a dimes
worth of ribbon or buying a spool oi
silk after 6 o'clock. If these tardy
shoppers, lockers and comebackers
could hear the comments passed upon
them they would be a bit more con-
siderate of the feeling of others.

AUI0ISTS IN COURT
ON APPEAL OF GASES
those Fined BY Mayor Are
Given Hearing.

Before an audience quite as large
as that attending the recent trial in
which they were fined $40 each IN
police court on the charge of speed
ing, a dozen Americus auto owners
were given a hearing before the full
council last night on appeal of the
cases.
The subject was a live one and ev-
cry seat was occupied.
Mayor Fielder, who pres ded at the
first trial and fined all of the defend
ants, vacated the chair last night tic
Mayor Pro TEN. Bolton for second
trial
The first case up was that against
Mr., J. D. Hooks. The testimony OF
the spoilers, Davis and Horne, was
the same as in the first trial. Mr.
Hooks entered a denial of the charge
The evidence of the witnesses did moi
coincide altogether as to the car and
measurements.
Upon motion of Alderman Allen the
case against Mr.. Hooks was dismiss
ed.
The same result followed in the triaI
Of Mr.. l.. NJ Hansford, who produc-
ed evidence to prove that Maude'
could not sprint at a speed exceeding
twenty miles an hour. The spoilers
testified that she had busted Lee street
at rate of about % 3-4 miles.
Upon the ground that the city had
not produced positive and conclusive
evidence of guilt this case, as stated
was dismissed.
Inman Griffin, who had been fined
S., was less fortunate than the Others
and the case against him held fast
though the SIS fine was reduced %
$3.50.
Alderman Clark spoke strongly for
the upholding of the speed ordinance
where it had been proven conclu-
siyely that it had been violated. He
denied having anything to do with the
employment of tie spoilers, but he
thought that council should stand ny
their testimony.
Alderman Allen spoke strongly
for the ordinance, but he wanted a
case clearly and fully proven, and Ia
not think this had been done in the
three cases above mentioned. He
thought the spotter system a good
tj,rg. and would likt t. sec it appl ed
to other evils here

COUNTY TREASURER
MAY BE ABOLISHED
But Incumbent Would Serve
Out His Full Term.
Grand Jury Believes
This Office Is Not
Required.

The grand jury that just adjourned
added its recommendation to the ever
increasing volume of similar recon-
mendations from all parts of the state
that the office of county treasurer be
abolished, as an unnecessary expense
to the county.
1t is probable that at the coming
session of the legislature every effort
will be made to pass bill providing
that each county shall be given the
right to decide by popular vote
whether it desires to maintain the Of
flee of county treasurer or not.
To do this it is said it may be nee
essary to put a constitutional amend
ment before the people, providing for
such a change in the existing system.
The term for which the present
county treasurers throughout the state
were elected cannot be cut down. All
of them will serve out the full term
of two years. But it is clearly within
the range of probabilities that by that
time the state law will have been
amended, and it will then be up to the
various counties to decide for them
selves as to whether they wish to
continue such a county officer, and if
so what rate of compensation they
wifi give him.
Conditions throughout the entire
state have SO changed in recent
years, it is held, that the Office is
now almost entirely sinecure and
one that could be filled by the county
with minimum of expense to the tax
payers.
AS will be seen from it's present
ments, the present grand jury believ-
ed the work should be done by the
clerk of the county commissioners for
a small compensation, he giving the
same bond that the county treasurer
is now required to give.
This is the method that has been
proposed in a number of counties.
While it may be deferred for sew
eral years there is apparently no doubt
that the office of county treasurer is
doomed in Georgia, the sentiment
against its continuance is growing in
strength every year.
The opposition of politicians who
object to the abolshment of any Of
flee may prevent the passage of the
proposed legislation at the coming ses-
sion of the General Assembly, but the
rising tide of public opinion is apt
to bring the desired result in the
next legislature.
The grand jury also recommended
that the representatives from Sumter
county in the next assembly support
legislation providing for the abolish
ment of the fee system and the plac-
ing of all county officers on a salary
basis. This proposition in all likth,
hood will have harder fight against
it than the one to abolish the office of
county treasurer. This change, too,
requires a statewide enactment, and
the opposition of the county officers
throughout Georgia is a rather pow
erful force to combat. 1t is doubtful
if the legislation along this line will
be secured from the next legislature.

PEOPLE ARE TFRRITIED
BY ANOTHtR QUAKE
thousands Sleep Outdoors
in Naples.

Naples, Italy, June 8.-Fresh trepl-
.ors in Italy's earthquake stricken dis
trict today threw the population into
panic as great as that occasioned
by the first shocks. At Avellini King
Victor Emmanuel and Queen Helena,
who insisted on joining him in tour
of the affected territory, appeared be-
fore the people in an effort to check
their fright. Not even royal ties, how
ever could Teassure the terrified pop
ulace, and fully 100000 people slept
out of doors last night, and when day
came refused to go to their homes
again even for cooking. Camps have
been pitched around all the towns in
the west of Italy from which word has
been received here, and army tents are
in demand.

NEED OE SEWERAGE IN
MANY PARTS OF CITY.
Would Prevent the Spread
of Disease.
This is One of the
Pressing Needs of
Americus.

The extension of Americus' sanitary
sewerage system is absolutely impera-
tive, if health conditions are to he
safeguardel, ana this important duty
cannog longer be deferred Some time
ago the city council required the con-
nection of all premises with the san
itary system where possible, and this
has been done in a large majority OF
cases, though there are some dis
tricts near the business center ol
town whore reeking surface closets
are still maintined in defiance of"coun-
cii's mandate. And to these menac rs
is due in large measure the spread of
infectious diseases. Flies carry the
contamination to markets and groc-
cry stores, and typhoid germs are thus
scattered in houses where all nee IS
sary precautions against disease had
previously been taken. So long as
the sanitary deparlmant of the city S
wholly inadequate for the growth OF
the town, so long Will disease pre-
vail, Americus has had exceedingly
few cases of typnoid this year, due
in large measure to precautions al
ready taken, but with dozens of
small dwellings witnin two or, three
blocks OF the court house still main
tanning surface closets there is always
immediate danger of a spread of in
fectious diGeSses here.
These are the views of a physician
published at his request to awaken the
public to a sense of its necessities.
