Our Great Men

We have the highest authority for
the statement-"And a little child
shall lead them"
The homely phrase-"It's the far
off COWS that have such long HORNS"
is equally true to human expert
ence.
1t is gratifying to know that be-
cause of the truths taught us by the
children of today, that distance, in
time or space, may soon cease to
multiply the length of the horns of
those of "far-off cows and that the
time may soon come when a prophet
will not be without honor, even in
his own country; as will be seen by
the following:

The teacher at Oak Hill Academy,
in preparation for Georgia Day, was
asking the children to name some of
the great Georgians of the present
day.
One little fellow said, "Tom Wat
son, because he is such a smart
man."
Another little fellow piped up
with: "Col. oliver, because he's such
a good lawyer
Another one, not to be outdone, ex-
claimed: "Mr. Worley, because he's
such a good lawyer"
Then a bright little fellow said:
"Col. Harris, because he's such
straight, honest man."
Then little fellow chimed in:
"Mr. Wall, because he knows so
much"
Let the good work go on. Teach
the children to be loyal to the great
men of their own county.-Elberton

PAGE TWENTY

Outside of urging the people to
register (because the books close on
the 9Th of ApriD, The Telegraph has
been giving it's readers rest on poll
tics, except perhaps in the national
field. They have needed a rest. 1t
has been a good time to think about
business, about farming, about stock
raising, and we have been travelling
in those realms of thought with our
friends.
But there are other newspapers
that never take a rest, nor give the
people rest, from political agita-
ton. Just now some of them are
hopping onto the Governor because
he did not take advantage of an OPP
ton to buy for the State some seven
teen acres of land in Chattanooga to
be used for terminal purposes by the
State Road
The facts as we understand them
are these: During Governor Smiths
term the State secured options on
seventeen acres of land. The Legis-
lature voted an appropriation of
$4,000 to pay for that land; 'pro-
vided, however" eve quote the legis-
lative act), "that the Governor shall
first examine and approve the matter,
and if in his judgment it is not to the
best interest of the State, he shall
not make the purchaser. Acting I'M
der this mandate Governor Brown
sent experts to Chattanooga and they
reported against the purchase. They
found, as we learn, that there were
really two tracts, which connect only
at corner In order to make them
adaptable for railroad terminal
to lay the necessary collateral net
work Of tracks-other land would
have to be purchased. If the State
had bought those two tracts, meet
ing at corners, the owners of ada
cent property would have had the
State by the forlock and could have
demanded eXorbitant prices for it.
The act Of the Legislature was not
mandatory" on the Governor, as as
serted by an Atlanta newspaper, but
it put the responsibility and the OPP
ton of the purchase on him. The
Legislature said that eff in his (the
Governor's) judgment, it is not to
the best interest of the State he shall
not make the purchase.
This is very clear. The Governor,
after a careful examination, decided
that it was not to the best interest
of the State, and therefore he de-
clined to make the purchase.
Like numerous other efforts to
put the Governor in hole, this one
has also failed.
Furthermore, the State treasury is
not burdened with cash to make
doubtful Investments
In speech delivered at Cumming
several days ago Ex-Governor Smith
put the best phase he could, of
course, on the condition of the
States funds, inasmuch as he had
committed himself to the theory of a
full treasury; but he admitted that
the money lis still not sufficient with
the increasing appropriations to
meet during the months of July, Au-
gust and September the salaries of
the teachers as they come DUE" and
he proposed as a remedy a new law
to require the railroads to pay their
taxes, "about 100000 yearly" on
the goth of June. Without stopping
here to discuss the propriety, or the
constitutionality, of class legislation
which would force the payment of
taxes on one class of property six
months before it is due on other
classes, we simply point to this to

THE JONES CASE.
Lawyers Are Using Every Expedient
10 Keep Convicted Man From the
Penitentiary-Delay Not Granted.

Union, S. c., June 14.-At the
court or general sessions here this
morning with w. B. Gruber of Wal
terboro, special judge presiding. the
case of w. T. Jones was brought IN
III the form of a motion for a new
trial on the ground of after-discover-
ed evidence.
Efforts were made by the ATTORNEYS
lor Jones to postpone the hearing on
account of the illness of one of Jones,
attorneys, Stanyarne Wilson, who was
operated on over a month ago for
appendicitis, the point being raised
by the attorneys presents that Mr.
wilson who was i'll had looked after
getting up the affidavits in the case
and that he was better acuaointed
with the facts regarding the evidence.
They requested the judge to continue
the case until conference could he
had with Mr.. Wilson.
The attorneys for the State took
the grounds that the attorneys for
the defendant had had ample time 70
nave made all their arrangements and
TO be ready at this term of court. Fur
ther, that by the delaying of the case
1t caused a further delay in Justice
and that if the case would be continu-
ed this morning it would most prob
ably mean that the case would not
come up until the September term of
court. Judge Gruber, after hearing
arguments from both sides in regard
to postponing the motion, decided
that the hearing must be proceeded
with today.
Attorneys for the defendant then
proceeded to hear the petition for the
new trial and the affidavits in support
thereof which were numerous and
Voluminous and the hearing of them
occupied the morning hours. When
court reconvened in the afternoon the
State presented it's afidavits for the
purpose of showing why the motion
should not be granted. Counsel for
the defendant as each affidavit. was
read, objected to such portions as
was considered irrevelant or incom-
petent. In this way the whole after
noon was consumed.

Distributed Lingerie On Subway.

Scores Of shop and factory girls
and pretty stenographers boarded a
Bronx express at the Fourteenth
street station Of the subway last night
at o'clock. So did a number of
clerks and other mere men.
In the crowd was a man about 80
years old, finely dressed, who carried
a sample case, on side of which was
stamped "A. c. p, Providence, r. T."
He carried also a load Of strong
waters"
After the usual scramble to find
seats and when the crowd had braced
itself to withstand the rush at the
Grand Central Station, the happy
salesman began to address the pass
engers.
Ladies'" he said, 81 am CARRYING
in this sample case the finest line
that there is on the road. You are
all good looking and 1 am going TO
give each one of you a sample Of
my line to remember me by"
Then he opened the sample case
and began to unpack an especially
fine lot Of lingerie. 1t was the finest
lot of goods Of it's kind that any Of
the girls had ever seen, and it was
the first of that kind of wear that
some of the men had ever seen.
Then the drummer smiling his
best smile and steadying himself as
we'll as his condition would allow, be-
gan to hand beribboned chemisettes,
corset covers and other things.
Some Of the maids began to litter,
others blushed and others got mad.
One firl slapped the drummer in the
face as he handed her an especially
fine sample of his lingerie. Others,
highly insulted, declined to take the
presents, but many of them wrapped
up what was offered, 'blushing the
while. Every man wore a broad grin.

CALLED IN EXTRA SESSION.
County Commissioners to Consider
Cotton Platform Situation.

From The Daily Item, June IA.
The Cotton Warehouse Company
has given notice to the County Com
missioners that the cotton platform
cannot be used any longer as a public
platform. In consequence Of this an
nouncement tho Board of County
have been called to
meet in extra session on Friday, June
18th. At that meeting there may be
some legal opinions given as the
county contends that there is a ten
year contract, a contract the COM
press company held them to some
time ago.
1t Is a pity that there should be
friction in this matter, for the busi-
ness Of the town suffers from it. The
County Board may decide to build a
platform and put a stop to all con-
troversy. 1t would be money we'll
spent to put in the platform and the
law allows 1t to be done.
The meeting on Friday will be
watched with a great deal Of interest.

more than $4,000 for lard. nearly

expended for butter alone $399,622,-

paid an average Of nearly 33 cents.

FAVORS USE OF A TAR BINDER.
Rhode Island Has Adopted This Meth
od or Construction With Much Sue

The use of tar binder in the con-
struction of roads is urged by Mr..
Edwin II. BrOwnley, of the Balti-
more bar, who has seen the advantage
or this mode of construction as COM
pared with the old style macadam
road. Mr.. Brownley says in the Bal
timore Sun
Good roads to a State are as much
necessity as are terminals to a rail-
road or proper harbor facilities to
our city. In other words, good roads
are one of the most important ave-
nues to the commercial prosperity of
any State.
No good can be accomplished
by the Good DAD RCommission unless
it builds roads tht will stand under
modern conditions and can be used
as we'll by the farmers wagon as by
the tourists car.
"Throughout the North most of the
States have given the question of
roadbuilding serious thought. and
in almost every instance with good
results. Macadam, of course, has
been used to some extent. but the
modern road, to my way Of thinking,
is that of the tar binder construction.
properly sanded. Rhode Island has
to a large extent adopted this, and
in every case with success. Some of
the roads, l am told, have been down
for five years and yet look as good as
new.
"Oil, of course, can be used to good
advantage, hut unless property sand
ed has no lasting qualities The use
OF sand on an II road gives it a crust
of considerable durability, otherwise,
the use of Ill IS more of a nuisance
than a benefit
THE use 90 vehicles with wheels
or narrow tread has a tendency to
cut into a road surface and at times
do considerable damage. 1t would
not be bad idea If people could be
induced to discontinue the use Of
narrow wheels and encouraged in the
use of wider wheel treads If this
could be brought about, no doubt the
life Of the ordinary road would be
extended.
"The Good Road Commission, to
carry out successfully it's plans, must
look to the future by adopting mod
ern methods of construction and get
away as far as possible from obsolete
IDEAS In the construction of the
roadbeds 1t should see that the grades
are established without regard to the
wishes of individuals. 1t should also
see that the foundations are properly
laid down and the roads built up ac-
cording to modern science and neces-
stiles.
NO good can be accomplished by
building inferior roads. In point of
iact, the people do not want them.
Good roads are what they want. In
ierior roads, or cheaply constructed
ones in the long run are dear and a
