MEN MEET AT MADISON

An exceedingly interesting meeting
was held in Madison at the New PARK
Saturday with banquet between
officers and employees of the north
western railroad, but especially of the
Madison division, its object being to
discuss safety matters pertaining to
the service, says the Madison Demo
crat.
The most prominent persons present
were E. E. Nash, superintendent Of
the Madison division, and K. Q.
Richards, chairman of the central
safety committee of the whole North
western system and general claim
agent. Others were engineers, con-
ductors, fremen, brakemen and sta.
ton agents. The meetings were in
the form of an informal formidable
where questions were asked 4 and
answers given, where the trainman
was on an perfect equality, so far as
suggestions were concerned, with the
=-=
superintendent of division, where OBJ
v1ousIy the finest sort of helpful
fellowship2e4isted.s Mr.. Richards was
able to show thatthere was yearly
reduction in deaths and injuries On
the road of some 80 per cent due to
safety activities. The movement is
almost new. It had its inspiration
in Mr.. Richards and in the two years
that it has been in existence major
ity of the roads of the country have
adopted, including the great Penn
sylvania.
Confidence Solicited.
The safety committee work, as ex-'
planned by superintendent Nash, con-
sists in bringing out defects in ma
chinery and operation for the purpose
of lessening accidents and making
train service sefer. On the North
western system it embraces a central
committee.at Chicago and local COM
mittee on each operating division
consisting of one or more representa-
tives of each department, the master
mechanic being usually the chairman.
Local committees report accidents
and recommendations to the general
committee, which acts on general bust
ness, while local problems are taken
up by the local committees. - ..nzuns
Superintendent Nash, who presided
at the banquet and at the meetings,
participated freely in the discussions
and asked the men on his division to
meet him informally at his office with
any possible manner of suggestions
which could promote safety. They
would always find him without reser.
walton anxious for information and
ready and willing to protect and safe
guard those who confide0 in him. The
aid of the wives of the railroad men
he also earnestly invoked. Their in
terest was vital and he hoped ne
might obtain from them information
which even the men themselves
might be unwilling to give.

order
The specific case in which Secretary
ro,< will testify is that of one James
sborter-an enterprising person, who,
IN 1894 undertook to annex an entire
Georgia county in spite of a law which
limited his head right" to 1000 acres.
Rrofber Shorter had a way of having
ti,ue4lf made out a grant for 1000
ceres bounded and abutted by the
sail lands Of the said Shorter" and
that was all the description there was
20 it,
What sort OF rake off" the honorable
land court got for issuing these grants
5v the basketful to Shorter nobody
nowadays knows, but it must have been
fine and dandy pickings, anyway!
After while. Shorter accumulated

fry 1881. 900 acres OF land-and that
was going some, too, when one consid-
arg that there were only 100000 acres

How old Shorter managed to overlook
tla remaining little cotton patch fur
Uishes food for thought.
by and by. the legislature Of the state
uslawed these old fake "lTead right"
grants and few people in the last so
wears have undertaken to realize any
thing on them
Every little bit, however, some swim
dlsr gets hold of a grant" trades 1t
for something or other-and then the
secretary Of the state of Georgia has to
get busy explaining how the grant"
isn't worth the paper it is written on.
Executive Secretary Hardy Ulm has
been digging around in old state papers
Of one sort and another of late, and
some Of the things he has turned up
are more than ordinarily interesting
Among other things he ran across
recently is an old agreement between
j. Perpont Morgan and jeremiah Mill
bank, on the one hand, and the Macon
and Brunswick railroad on the other,
whereby Morgan and Millbank agree to
become trustees for the bonds Of the
road to the extent Of $15O,0OO. The in
strument is dated September l, 1869.
j, Pierpont Morgan's signature to the
agreement was the thing that particu-
lary attracted Ulm's eagle eye. He
got blank bank check, filled it out for
million or so, and carefully attached
lorgan's signature to the bottom
hereof
He said he had no idea Of attempting
TO cash the near-check, but he wanted

That Floyd county is in dead earnest
about enforcing the state prohibition
law is abundantly attested in the fact
that Judge Maddox has sent four well
known white men convicted Of violating
the law to the county chaingang for
long terms this year, and that without
the alternative Of q fine
Two of these men-one Of them at
one time quite prominent political in
fiuence in Floyd-went to the "gang"
without protest, but the other two car
rfed their cases to the court Of appeals.
In a batch of decisions handed down
recently, however, the appeals court af-
firmed the lower courts findings and
sentences, and now these defendants
must join the other two in the Floyd
county convict road camp
Judge Maddox announced that he
would impose changing sentences in
the future, in the event defendants were
convicted by juries Of violations of the
prohibition law, and he has more than
kept his word thus far.
