against Georgia labOrers employed
there, and the effect of the presence
OF the troops was to protect and pre-
serve their lives.
Regarding the alleged danish
ment" of the Italian laborers from
the state it is pointed out that there
was no effort whatever made by the
troops to send them beyond the linn
its Of the state, but that they left
voluntarily, as the result of an agree
ment with the company. 1t was
merely coincidence that they took
the same train as that which con-
veyed the troops.
The Italians, it is shown, were all
armed with deadly weapons, includ-
ing firearms, dirks, daggers and sti-
lettOes, the latter instruments having
been manufactured by themselves
from old files, and were about as
sharp and deadly as anything of the
kind ever used in a Sicilian vendetta.
Samples of these weapons were sub
mitted to the Legislature along with
the message, and characterized by
the governor as symbols of anarchy
and black-hand
The governors reply is accompa-
MED by numerous affidavits, includ-
ing those from Col. J. w. English,
Jr., Deputy Sheriff Mitchell of Walk
er county, and Capt H. P. MiekIe-
ham, commanding Company E. Fifth
Infantry, that went to the mines I'M
der orders from the governor,
Sheriff Germany was sick, as he
says in his affidavit. Deputy Sheriff
Mitchell was on the job, and could
not handle the situation. He was
surrounded by threatening armed
men, and had to fly for his life BY
long distance phone he commune
Gated with the governor at night. The
governor had no alternative but to
act on the deputy sheriff's statement
of the case, and he had to act quick
ly, if at all
The report of Captain Meikleham
fully substantiates the truth of the
situation as set forth by the deputy
sheriff. The affidavit of the sheriff.
who was not at the scene of the
trouble until after the militia arriv-
ed, cOrroborates the statements made
by the others.
According to the constitution the
governor is made commander-in-chief
of the militia of the state, and is
charged with the duty of preserving
the peace. Whenever he thinks that
disturbance is likely to take place
which might be destructive of life
and property it is his 1uty to send
soldiers there regardless of any
demands or protests from the local
officials.
Governors in Georgia have num-
bers of times called out the troops,
although the local authorities pro-
tested against it. In the recent case
there was neither request nor pro-
test from the sheriff, because he
could not be located, but there was
request from one of his appointed
deputies on the ground.
The sight of the weapons taken
from the Italians in this case was
sufficient to convince many members
Of the legislature who were in doubt
before. Such weapons were unheard
of in Georgia, and were a strange
sight to Georgia representatives.

DAWSON SQUARE BALE GIN
WILL GIVE FIRST-CLASS SER
VICE AGAIN THIS SEASON.

Plant is One of the Best Ever Oper-
ated in Southwest Georgia. Mr..
S. ID. Hatcher to BE in Charge.
The News has been informed by
Mr.. J. T. Raglan, the president of the
company, that Mr.. S. D. Hatcher has
been engaged as manager of the
Dawson Square Bale Gin and Mill
the coming season.
This plant is equipped with the
Continental improved plain gins, us
ing the Brown drive, which is de-
cided improvement in arrangement
for driving gins direct from the line
shaft, and does away with some OBJ
jectionable features in the ordinary
system of gins. The cotton eleyat-
ing system is the Continentals latest
model of Glass c, using belt distrib-
utor in combination with suction out
fit to distribute the cotton to all of
the gins This system takes the
cotton from the wagon by suction in
the usual manner, but by mechani-
up the cotton when in bad condition
and cleans it, thus delivering it to
the saws in the very best possible
condition, which, as natural result,
gives the customer the best obtaina-
BILE sample on account of the ma
chineTy Strengthening out the fiber
and removing all trash and dirt.
Altogether, the outfit is guaranteed
not only to do rapid work, but to
remove all the lint from the seed
and produce a fine sample, and in
this way it will not only please the
customers who patronize the ginnery,
but will enable the Dawson Square
Bale Gin and Mill Co. to turn out a
great deal more work than ever be-
fore. ---.~-~,.-
The patrons of the Dawson Square
Bale Gin and Mill Co. can rest as
sured that they will get the very
highest class of service and 0s
promptly waited on. The outfit is
known as the Munger System, and,
as everybody knows, the watchwOrd
of the manufacturers is the greatest
turnout at the least cost, and better
sample and more profit"
The Improvements mean that the
company will be prepared when the
necessity arises to handle damp and
dirty cotton that cannot be handled
by other systems.
The public is thoroughly familiar
with the splendid ginning done at
the Dawson Square Bale Gin last
season, and with Mr.. Hatcher in
charge of the plant this season its
patrons can rest assured that they
will again receive the best and most
satisfactory service that can be Civ
en-. The officers and stockholders
of the company appreciate the form
er liberal patronage from the public,
and will be glad to have a cOntinu-
ance of the same.

TELLS ABOUT THE TROOPS
WERE SENT TO MINES AT RE-
QUEST OF DEPUTY SHERIFF.
Daggers and Stilettoes Accompany
Governors Message. Affidavits
Show Situation Was Grave.


ATLANTA, Ca, July 25.-Govern-
or Brown transmitted his special
message to the legislature today Civ
ing his reasons for sending troops
to Walker county recently. The gov
.ernor went into the fullest details
of the incident of the mines in his
message.
He called attention to the fact that
the troops were ordered out at the
request of Deputy Sheriff John Mitch
ell, an appOintee of Sheriff Germany
upon the deputy's statement that the
conditions were such as to demand
that action.
The first intimation of trouble
came to him, he said, when Colonel
j. w. English, Jr., president of the
Lookout Mountain Coke and Coal
Company, telephoned him at the re-
quest of Deputy Sheriff John Mitch
ell of Walker county, who stated
that the Italian workers at the mines
were in state of revolt, and urged
that troops be sent at once for the
protection of lives and property.
To the foregoing facts Deputy
Sheriff Mitchell makes an affidavit.
The governor cites the fact that,
according to sworn aff1davits, the
Italian laborers at the mines had
made dire and dangerous threats
