WAS no JOY ride, but business propo-

the Commercial Association, Of which
Mr.. Parker II chairman and Col.
Frank L. Mayes, deserve the thanks Of
the entire city.
To begin with, the Commercial As
ISOLATION made the trip possible, then
Col. Mayes sat down and went over
the route we would take and had his
stenographer send letters TO the editor
of all the newspapers in every town
through which we passed, telling them
OF the proposed trip, when we would
leave. and q bunch Of copy already
prepared for them which they could
use, stating the object Of the trip and

AUGUSTA HERALD SAYS PRINCE
ToNIAN Is MAN WITH WHOM
TO BEAT TAFT.

The following is from The Augusta,
Ga, Herald.
The Democratic party can and ought
to win the next presidential election,
and the impression seems to be grow
ing on all sides in the east as in the
west and throughout the length and
breadth of the south as well that the
party can win with Wilson.
We suggest the phrase as one to
put in your thinking cap for future
use. The fight will not be so much
to beat Taft, whose defeat is being
freely considered even among the
members of his own party as to the
man to beat him with. The story is
being put out by the correspondents
and politicians in Washington that
Wilson can be elected but he can't
be nominated. This Is a challenge TO
the rank and file of the Democratic
voters OF the entire country that will
be promptly taken up when the party
begins to declare itself upon the
choice Of candidates for the presiden-
tial nomination.
II public opinion is strong enough
to elect a progressive Democrat pres

transfer Talk
No. 3.

Ask for your transfer when paying your fare
Another transfer rule which the7conduc-
tor is expected to live up to is to issue trans
fers only to those who ask for them at the
time of payment Of fare. You have certainly
made up your mind as to your destination
when you board the car, and you are most
likely familiar with the lines over which you
must travel to reach it. Therefore, when you
pay the conductor, ask him for transfer,
thereby saving yourself trouble, inconvenience
and the embarrassment of having the conduc-
tor tell you that it is against the rules to issue
transfer unless asked for at the time of pay
ment of fare. 1t will save trouble for everybody.

Sherlock and Bragg Places

Thieves Cut Wire Screen Doors and

Are Robbed. Believed White Men
Committed Act.

Two market house robberies discoy-
cred early yesterday morning, and
the belief that two white men working
as pals, committed both burglaries,
have served to put the police to work
in earnest in an effort to arrest the
thieves who, in one case at least, were
clearly seen.
Bragg's market, under the opera
house. was burglarized before one
o'clock yesterday morning, While Sher-
locks market was robbed about two
hours previously.
At Sherlock's place the police saw
two men dash out of the store and
around the corner into darkness, but
not in time for them to capture the
criminals, who skipped away in the
direction of the baseball park
Both the Bragg and Sherlock mar
kets were entered through the wire
screen doors, which were cut away.
In each place the thieves opened
the cash register and swiped the loose
change left there at closing time, about
$50 in each store. AT Sherlock =
the police heard the cash register ring
but were told by a bystander outside
that the sound came from Simmons
place, very near by.
They proceeded to investigate Sim
mons bar, and it was then that tn
thieves, still in Sherlock's store, made
dash for the street
If the officers know the identity OF
the Sherlock burglars they are keep
ing it quiet, There seems little doubt
that the robberies, coming so near to-
gether, were done by white men, and
