TOM WATSON
 IN DIFFICULTY
Special Nugget Service.

AUGUSTA, Ga. Nov. 20.-Thomas F.. Watson. who was nominated for president by the peoples party in 1901. and publisher of Tom watson's Nigga zine. has been indicted on the charge of sending obscene literature through the mails. The specific offence with which he is charged is an attack on the Catholic religion which he arraign- ed in the columns of his magazine in the strongest terms. The overwhelm- ing majority of the grand jury which have indicted him are members of the Protestant faith. but the language used by Mir. Watson was evidently re- garded as unfit for publication and religious differences evidently did not prevent them from acting broadmind- edly.
 Mir. Watson was candidate for the vice e-presidency on the populist ticket at St. Louis in 1896 when the populist convention endorsed William Jennings Bryan for president.
 He began the publication of Tom watsons magazine in New York in 1905 and since that time has exhibit ed much bitterness when dealing with the religion which he is now indicted for attacking with obscenity.

The 9th street wharf OF the American
Ice Company, the wharf at which all the
ice-laden vessels that have discharged
cargoes at this city In several years
have unloaded. is being rebuilt. The
wharf has been in rather a bad state
of repair for the past two years or long
er, but the removal of cribbing about the
earthen portion Of the structure and the
replac cling Of the wooden portion will
make the structure new.
In addition to this new mooring and
fender piles are to be driven and it is
stated that the pile-driving work viii he
pushed rapidly TO completion. For sew
eral years past. ever since the company
has had but little use for the pier as an
ice unloading point, it has been used by
lumber-laden craft as a diScharging point
and two large foreign steamships have
unloaded cargoes of paving block there
from England. The wharf is also A
favorite berthing place for large steam
yachts and other pleasure craft when
they come here for a visit OF any dura-
ton.
