Roads in Wet Weather

Sand-Clay Roads in Wet Weather.
From the Triton Gazette.
Sand-clay roads are not a success
in wet weather. A personal letter
from a friend in North Georgia last
week mentioned the fact that the
condition of the roads is terrible.
So we in South Georgia, with our
new sand-clay roads, which have not
had time to harden, are not alone.
Now is the best opportunity to put
in operation the Tiff county plan of
every man looking after his own
road. 1t is admitted that sand-clay
roads are satisfactory in dry wealth
er, but do they give satisfaction any
where in wet weather?

Another effort is to be made to
publish a newspaper at Fort Gaines.
Mr.. w. c. Kelley, recently of the
Twiggs County Citizen and an expe-
rienced newspaper man, announces
that he will soon begin the publica-
ton of the Southwest Georgian at
the Clay capital. Fort Gaines is too
good a town to be without a live
newspaper, and the people there will
not do themselves justice unless they
give Editor Kelley substantial sup
port. The News welcomes him to

BAD BLIZZARD
IN NEBRASKA
Probably Two Victims of the
storm-Wfs the Worst
Ever Experienced.

Hemingford. Neb.. April l5.-The
blizzard which ragged in northwestern
Nebraska Saturday afternoon and
through the night claimed at least
one victim and probably two. Mrs.
Richard Path. whH with her little son
started out at thu beginning of the
storm to bring IT, stock to shelter,
was lost in the blLding snow and her
dead body was found this morning,
not far from her home. The child has
not beed found, but it is feared he
perished. Richard Path. the husband,
was at Alliance proving up on a home
stead. The Paths lived ten miles from
here. Neighbors searched all night for
the woman and the boy without result.
The blizzard was the worst ever ex-
perfenced in this section at SO late a
day tn spring. and ranchmen were en-
ttrely unprepared for it. The wind
was OF almost hurricane force, driving
heavy snow before it. making it inn
possible to see but few feet ahead.
Many houses were unroofed and
buildings damages. Reports came in
today of stock in the open perishing.
The storm extended as far west as
Sheridan. Wyo.. and eastward nearly
q hundred miles. but of less severity.
Snow fell throughout the Black Hills,
but there was an absence Of the high
wind. Ranchmen fear the stock loss
will be heavy. as cattle were turned
out several weeks ago for forage, and
were without shelter

Minority Leader Mann and

Washington, April l5.-The lie wa.

case Of Mrs. Helen Pierce Gray. said
to be lobbyist on Indian affairs.
Mann said In lieu of an explanation
an investigation should be made OF
the case.
Yesterday on the floor Mann declar.
ed that Mrs. Gray upon the advice OF
Graham had refused to return to an
indian client protested fee. Today
when Graham discovered Mann's re.
marks in the recopd the storm broke
Mann was not in the chamber when
Graham began the statement in which
ne branded in bitter terms Mann's
statements as untrue. Representative
Madden OF Illinois sought vainly to
halt Graham's remarks because OF
Mann's absence. In the height Of his
protest Mann entered. Graham called
upon him to produce proofs Of his
charge. The minority leader read a
number OF letters and kilograms bear
ing on the connection Of Mrs. Gray
with the committee.
Graham reiterated that Mrs. Gray
was not employed by the committee
and never had drawn a penny of tho
public funds, SO far as the committee
was concerned.
Mann retorted by reading a letter
written recently by Graham to Secre.
tary Fisher, introducing Mrs. GRAY
and asking that she be given access
to certain files in the general land Of

formation "for the committee
Mann also declared that certain

committee in the Controller bay case
and although 1t was denied that he
appeared for the committee he had
nled a bill for $1,000 and had receiv-
ed 1900 on account.
Tho attorney in question did not
receive one cent from the committee 81
Mr.. Graham shouted, jumping to his
feet.
1T is passing strange" returned
Mann. but the committee on ac-
counts informs US that 1t paid out
$500 to this attorney for services rem
dered before the committee. Who is
paying these people? Who is pay

CHICAGO DEMS IN
RED HOT FIGHT
Courts and Militia are Neces.
sary to Preserve Sem
blance of Order.

Chicago. April 15.-At noon County
Judge Owens appeared at the Seventh
regiment armory and demanded that
the doors be opened to admit E, credit
cd delegates to the democratic county
cnnv~ ntion. On being refused, he or
dered the police to break in the doors.
Assistant Chief Schuettlet with an AK
battered down the DOORS
After the doors were battered in
the earst-Harrison delegates. who
had been waiting outside. filed into
the building. On the orders of their
officers the national guardsmen sta
toned inside by the faction of Nation.
al Democratic Committeeman Roger
Z. Sullivan offered no resistance and
the delegates proceeded to their seats.
The armory. designated as the meet
ing place of the Cook county dem.
ocratic convention. took on the an
pearance OF state of siege with ma.
tional guardsmen within and police.
deputy sheriffs. officers of the election
committees and delegates to the con.
vention outside. A clash between the
police and the guardsmen seemed Inn
minent at times when efforts were
made to enter the building.
The disturbance was occasioned by
the failure Of the Hearst-Harrison
democrats and the democrats allied
with National Committeeman Roger
G. Sullivan to agree on proper
method to organize the convention.
Each side professed to believe If the
plans of the other were carried out
they would not receive fair treatment
and both claimed majority Of the
delegates.
The Hearst Harrison faction has the
backing Of a court order from JnG,;e
Owens directing Election Commissies-
er Czarnicki, republican, to ette
a temporary organization and call the
roll Of the accredited delegates.
The Sullivan forces have behind
them an Injunction from Superior
Judge Mckinley restraining the DO.
lice, election commission and sheriff
from interfering with the convention.
Each faction ignored the court order
of the other.
