DISTRIBUTE HAY.
IN BIG .CARGOES
FROM THIS CITY
6RUNSWIcK MADE DISTRIBUTING
POINT FOR ALL OF
SOUTH GEORGIA.
The American Hay Company Opens
Offices in This city-schooner Now
in Port With a Full Cargo Of Hay
for the Company.

With the view of making Brunswick
the distributing point for South Geor-
gia, the American Hay company, the
largest shippers of hay in the world,
have a schooner at this port with a
solid cargo of Canadian hay for the
Brunswick Hay & Grain Co., their
local agents.
This is the first of the regular ship
ments to arrive at Brunswick, and
the American Hay company are ship
ping solid cargo of Eastern hay to
Savannah, Jacksonville and Tampa.
The idea of the company is to make
Brunswick the distributing point for
this section.
ii. q. Nash, special representative
OF the company. arrived in the city
yesterday morning. In speaking Of
the general shortage of the hay crop
throughout the country, Mr. Nash says
that estimates show that only about
TO per cent. of the normal crop viii
be raised this year. This means that
prices will be high all the season.
Hay Is higher in the West than in
many years. Under this plan, South
Georgia will be better supplied with
hay than would be possible il they
had to depend upon Western ship
ments.
The American Hay company has
leased one of the large warehouses
at the A., B. & A. terminals, with a
solid cargo stored and shipments
made direct to. interior points. The
company is said to be the largest con-
cern of its kind in the world. having
80 per cent Of the export trade.
During the Spanish-American war
this company had contract with the
government to supply the United
States army with hay; during the
Japanese-Russian war the same com
pany supplied the Japs with hay, and
during the Boer war with England
the English army was furnished with
hay by this company. The hay was
compressed and shipped from along
the line of the Canadian Pacific rail-
road.
1here is great saving in freights in
shipping cargo lots direct from Can
ada to Southern points. Thus the
South will be taken care Of at great
saving in prices.
The cargo now discharging at the
terminals Is a high class hay, most
of which is grade Mo- / Timothy.
There are thousands of cars of hay
shipped into Georgia each year, and
on account of the great distance there
is always more or less delay. Bruns-
wick is fast being recognized as
great distributing point, and this ven
tllre on the part of the American Hay
company Is going to prove a great
convenience the trade as well as in
crease the tonnage through this port.

PROHIBITION BILL MAY BLOCK
ALL THE OTHER LEGIs-
LATlON.
Bill Has Been Made Special Order for
Today and Fight Over 1t May Last
fer the Remainder of the Present
Session

Atlanta, Aug. 2.-Because a certain
element in the house is opposed to
the Tlppins bill, providing for the pro-
hibition of the sale of near-beer in
Georgia, filibuster has already been
started in the house and bids fair to
Stifle all general legislation for the
rest OF the session.
This filibuster became evident this
morning when a reconsideration of
the woman lawyer bill was before the
house. Representative Hardeman of
Jefferson, spoke against the reconsid-
GRAFTON and made remarks in his
speech which led the members to be-
ieve he was speaking only to kill
time. This was verified by another
member later who stated to represen-
tatives at the press table that a fill
buster against the Tippins bill had
been launched and Hardeman's speech
was merely the first gun.
A privilege resolution was intro
duced and referred to the rules com
mittee, setting the Tippins bill for 10
o'clock Friday morning as the spe-
cial order on second reading. OF
course, if the rules committee allows
the bill to come up at that time a
general fight will follow and people
interested in the legislation which has
not already passed might as we'll for
get it as the Tippins bill will be de-
bated so long as is possible, at least
until the general appropriation bill is
reached

THIEVES STILL AT
WORK In CITY
THREE MORE PLACES IN HEART
OF TOWN WERE ENTERED
DURING LAST NIGHT.

Thieves are still busy at work in
Brunswick and in all three more bur
glaries in the downtown district were
reported to the police last night
The meat market Of Burns 6 lie
key, on Gloucester street, was enter
ed for the second time witnia three
nights. 1t will be remembered that
this was one of the three places en-
tered Monday night, and although
very little was secured the place was
visited again last night and again the
thief found very little money in the
cash register. The entrance was
made through the front door between
11.30 and 12 O'clock. The staple of
the lock was pulled, the thief finding
little difficulty in gaining an en-
trance. 3'~ ,,.T3
The other two places robbed ware
the saloon of Emery on Bay street
and the saloon of George Ponder on
Monk street. At the Emerv saloon
the thief deliberately broke open the
front door, went all over the place
and made his exit through the rear
door, leaving all the lights burning.
Very little was stolen.
The front door to the Po lder sa-
loon was also broken open by the
thief, but, like in the other two cases,
but little money had been left in the
cash drawer.
Hounds Badly Needed.
Although the city several weeks 60
decided to purchase a pair of blood
hounds to be kept at the city Jail, the
dogs have not yet been secured, and
although the officers have discovered
some trails which could have been
easily worked out, they have not had
dogs and consequently could do moth.

1t was only a few minutes after the
Greek fruit store on Newcastle street
had been entered Tuesday night be.

The police department is doing ev.
erything possible to land the thieves
and close watch is being kept, II
Is easy, however, for the thief to keep

entrance while he is blocks away.
However, the officers hope to secure
some clue which will lead to the Al.

primary election in the United States
senatorial race, give former Governor

Complete returns are in from five
hundred voting places and the vote
cast was 47,136, divided as follows:
Vardaman, 24,6SS
Percy, 1851.
Alexander, 1870.
This gives Vardaman lead of 8, ,04O

Considering these things, and remember
ing that this is but a partial recital, what
manner of man do you take our President to
be?
[ believe that if [ had to double and twist
and back and fill, and walk astraddle of the
branch and be up to my eyebrows in machin-
nations and horse-trading, to be President,
I'd let some other flexible, reversible, acroba-
TIC facing both-ways chap have the job.

VIII Manner OF Man is Our
President?

Baptist Associations and Peace Congresses
are rapturously applauding Mr.. Taft, as a
dove OF Peace, in human form. In public
address and in document of State, Mr.. W. H.
Taft IS vehemently demanding peace.
But what does he say, By acts, which speak
louder than cords?
He masses the y. S. Army along the Mex
lean border III a manner which IS calculated
to alarm and provoke that distracted coun-
try. The concentration of the troops, at that
time and place, and in that way, was a most
unneighborly, unpacfic and unconstitutional
act. 1t was menaclng gesture, of one ma
ton at anOther-as much SO as one individual
menaces another when he points gun at
him.
Why did Mr.. Taft do H9. And how does
that act of hostility consist with his pacific
declarations? Nobody can reconcile the act
with the speeches.
Again, there was his obstreperous demand
for the expenditure of countless millions of
our money IN the fertilization of the Panama
Canal.
1t would not have cost us a cent to have
neutralized the ditch. Had that been done.
the world would have been convinced that
there is some sincerity in our anti-war Cab
bic. But the hlgh-priest of the peace Cab
blers violently and insistently Hammered for
the war-like Notifications, and the whole
world then knew that the peace gabble was
all for effect
England has never deliberately fortified the
Suez Canal. Why couldn't we adopt the
same pacific policy in Panama?
The truth is, that men of the type of Roose-
welt and Taft are mathematics men, not the
men of the people, They are kin to million
aires; they associate with mllionaires they
play golf or tennis with millionaires; they
eat and drink with millionaires they are

If [ had suspected that [ was to be kept
out of my money in this scandalous way, I
would never have bought that white flannel
suit that the newspapers have kicked up such
a fuss about.
And the cruelest thing about it is, that

at least express his regret and astonishment at
the failure of the Latter Day Billy goats to
pay me those ducats.
