COMMITTEE TO
HOLD A MEETING
WILL FIX DATE FOR COUNTY
PRIMARY AND TRANSACT
OTHER BUSINESS.

The democratic executive commit
tee Of Glynn county will meet within
the next week or ten days for the
purpose of fixing a date for the ap-
preaching primary, at which county
officers will be named, and to trans
act ether business which may come
before the meeting. E. c.. Butts,
chairman of the committee, has not
as yet decided just when the meeting
will be held.
1t is expected that the primary in
Glynn county will be called for the
latter part of April or the first OF
May, as has always been the case;
county candidates, as a rule, have al
ways favored two primaries, one for
the nomination Of county and another
for statehouse officers.
From present indications local vot-
ers will witness a number Of inter-
esting contests and it is expected
that the registration list will be one
of the largest in recent years. Voters
should remember that they have only
a month longer il which to qualify
as the books close on April ..

OPPOSITION I D
commissioners
SEEMS LIKELY.
TWO TICKETS WILL PROBABLY
BE IN THE FIELD AT
NEXT PRIMARY.
Generally Believed Members of Pres
ent Board viii Offer for Reelection,
While an Entire New Ticket Will
Be Placed in Race.

An interesting contest for members
OF the commissioners of roads and
revenues of Glynn couty is slowly but
tickets by whoever prepared them,an
cations two complete lists will be
voted upon at the approaching demo-
cratic primary.
1t is generally understood that all
of the members of the present board
will offer for reelection, while. there
is wellfounded report in circula-
lion that another ticket will be placed
IN the field, not that any of those
who will compose it are really anx-
5ous to serve, but because they will
De called upon to do so by those who
are opposed, not to the present COM
missioners themselves, but to their
policies.
This will be the first time that
there has been any opposition for
places on the board of commissioners
for many years. In past years the
names of the commissioners compos-
ing the board were just placed on the
ticket by whoever prepared them, and
they were voted upon without any
opposition, and in all vacancies the
board has named the successors. But
recently considerable opposition has
developed to the board, with the re-
suit that there is much talk, in the
city and county, of a new commits
sion entirely.
1t IS pointed out that no man will
voluntarily announce for the pos: tion,
as there is 10 pay and little glory
in the office, theref those who are
opposed to the present board will
probably call meeting and select
the men whom they desire to place
before the people for nomination.
There are seven members of the
county board, four of whom are fur
nished by the city and three by the
county districts. The members are
elected for a term of two years and
@he terms of all the present commits
sioners will expire on the first of the
coming year.
Just who will compose the ticket
to be placed in the field against the
present board is not yet known, but
the men selected will no doubt be
among the best known and most en-
terprising business men of the city
and county.

There has been a general increase
in he lumber business through this
port during the past two months, and
practically all lumber dealers In the

local concern alone, the Germain

the first Of the year. This company
also has chartered at present five
schooners to load lumber at this port

threats and plastic praise.

ALIVE IN SUCH A CON-
DITION.

Th2o. w. Peters, supposed to be the

under the bridge at the time, killing
the officer almost instantly, and Pc
ter's heck was broken.
The man has travelled the world
over since he recovered from the ac
cident and he carries with him hun
dreds of newspaper clippings and ply
sician certificates relating to his ac-
cident, recovery, etc. His case is a
most peculiar one and has puzzled
some of the most eminent physicians
in the country. He does all of his
travelling by foot and is quite a good
walker, having made a trip from San
Francisco to Portland, Ne, in ninety
three days. He earns his living by
selling stories andp ostcards and
curios Of himself and the views of the
awful accident in which his neck was

Number Not So Large.

Laredo, Tex, March 5,-The num-
Der of American refugees leaving
Mexico through Laredo today was less
than yesterday. Customs and immr-
grant officials had expected an exo-
dus from Mexico between here and
Mexico City, but their expectations
were not fulfilled. The twenty fam
lilies reported about to leave Monte
rey yesterday have not yet joined the
exodus. None of today's refugees told
stories of mistreatment of any sort.
The only complaints continued to
come from wives, who said their hus-
bands had sent them away against

COL. ROOSEVELT
EXPLAINS WHAT
WAS IN LETTER
az WILL NOT BE A CANDIpATE,a
DID NOT MEAN He WOULD
NOT BE IN BIG FIGHT.
Declares He Had Told Both Friends
and Foes Whom He Could Trust
About His Present Position Years
Ago.

New York, March 5.-To clear up
conflicting statements as to what he
had said in the past in regard to the
presidential nomination, olonel Roose-
welt today made public letter which
ne wrote last June to Frank A. Mum
sey, the publisher.
Colonel Roosevelt's objection in
giving out the communication he said.
was TO refute the charge that he was
breaking promise in agreeing to ac-
cept the nomination if it were offered
to him.
He called attention to a passage in
the letter in which, while it stated
that he should not be candidae. he
declared that he would not go on rec
ord as being unwilling to accept the
nomination.
The portion of the Munsey letter to
which the colonel called particular
attention, follows:
What I have said to you and am
about to say to you, l have, for in
stance, said not only to other friends,
who think | ought to be nominated,
but to friends (and even foes) who
think | ought not to be nominated,
provided only l could trust their sim
cerity, intelligence and truthfulness.
For instance, l have said the same
thing to Secretary Stimson, Secretary
Meyer and Congressman Lo&gworth,
who are supporting Taft to Mr.. Pin
chot and Congressman Lenroot and
Congressman Kent, who are support
ing LaFollette.
I am not and shall not be a can
didate. I shall not seek the nomina-
ton, nor would | accept it if it came
to me as the result of an intrigue. But
will not tie my hands by statement
which would make it impossible for
me TO serve the public by undertake
ing great task if the people as a
whole seemed definitely to come to the
conclusion that I ought to do that
task. AS far as in me lies, am en-
deavoring to look at this matter from
the standpoint of the public interest
and no in the leas from my own
standpoint. III *,aHHEN

ure and interests, I should most en-
phatically announce that | would un-

rebuttal of this simple story the
attorneys of DR.. Joslen, the most
experienced criminal lawyers of
the state of California, combed
the tenderloin in search of wit

Almost at the outset three of
them were arrested for perjury.
The case of one is being investi-

were ex-prizefghters, tender1oin

walters from the 'Barbary Coast
When "a young messenger boy
perjured himself by detailed re-
counting of a night of merry
making with Ethel Williams,
when two bell boys, afterward ar,
rested for perjury, recounted a
fabricated adventure of the young
girls at a we'll known down town
hotel, the club women sat unmov-
ed through the evidence which
was afterward proven false and
gave the frail little complaining
witness, in her cheap clothes and
pathetic homemade hats, inval-
liable support.
If the arrangement of this man
has proven nothing else it has
proven that a new consciousness

the victims of such men is being
felt by women, especially the club
women and the social workers of

BANANA CASE
FOR DECISION

1870 feet Of his house, as he did In
The case of the Territory VS.. Lucas on
the same charge. The matter now

This case, which Is exactly the
same as that entered against Lucas,
will be dealt with in the Supreme
Court by Chief Justice Robertson who
Is not disqualified as in the matter of
the Lucas case. 1t was felt that It
was better to have the decision of the

only depend on decision handed
down by one Supreme Court Judge
and two Circuit Judges acting with
him.
