NEW ENTERPRISES

WAYCROSS, Ga, Nov. 23.-Positive
announcement has been made in Way
cross that work starts early in the new
year on a string of new enterprises
that one concern will operate in the
city. Several sites are under considera-
ton and a local representative of the
foreign capital interested has been in
structed ito close for whichever site he
considers available for the companys
purposes.
In addition to operating cotton gins,
fertilizer mixing plants and grist mills,
the new enterprise will maintain a gen.
eral supply store for the special benefit
of farmers. Business will be conducted
on longtime credit, something that this
section will well appreciate.
Expert cotton buyers will be employ
ed and Waycross for the first time in
its history will really become a live
cotton center. The cotton planting in
the section surrounding the city has al
ways been as heavy as usual in this
part OF the state, but lack of a market
has kept the staple out Of Waycross.
In this connection it is stated that
efforts will be made at once to have
the Farmers union cotton warehouse,
for which a site was secured some time
ago, erected and ready for business an
other season. The new company will
commence operations with a paid in cap
ital of $50, 900, but the hackers have sig
nifed their willingness to invest as much
as a quarter of a million in the propo-
sition The site will be purchased by
December 1 and plans prepared for the

TREATMENT OF CoNVICTS
SCORED BY MINISTER
Especial Dispatch to The Journal.)

Especial Dispatch 10 Inc JOuTIdi'J
COLUMBUS, Ca, Nov. 22.-Much is
being said and written in regard to m
human treatment of state convicts IN the
Muscogee camps, and it is said by local
advocates of reforms here that where
there is so much smoke there Is oouno
TO be some fire."
ONLY recently the chairman and two
members of the state prison board came
to Columbus to investigate reports OF
rough treatment. of the convicts here.
Just what their findings were is not
known.
The latest charge in regard to the
treatment of the prisoners came yester-
day afternoon, when Rev. Sidney Love,
secretary Of the Bethlehem Children
association, who has been in the city
several days, gave out the following:
ITO the Citizens of Muscogee County:
my association has no intention what
ever TO antagonize county officials;
neither have /, as their secretary; but
find, after investigation, that it is abso-
lutely necessary for me to call the at
tention of the citizens of this county 10
the fact that ex-convicts and others who
seem to be informed with reference to
the county changing that there is more
brutality exercised toward the convicts
serving than any county which l have
been called upon to visit.
THE law prescribes that a convict,
who is in sound health, shall receive a
certain number of stripes with the strap
for offenses such as attempting to
escape, violence toward an officer, ana
repeatedly refusing to work; but the in
formation that 1 have gathered tells me
that the strap in your county chain
gang is used at the slightest provocation,
and mostly for the offense of insolence
toward a guard. If the statement OF
men who have served sentences is to
be taken, the man who does the whip
ping is accused by them of violating the
law in every sense of the word; that, in
stead of giving a limited number OF
stripes. he persistently whips a prisoner
until no cries for mercy against the I'M
merciful treatment administered.
Christian friends, 1 am not a sensa-
tionalist, but knowing full we'll that the
city of Columbus, Ca, is looked upon as
one Of the refined, cultured cities OF
the state, or even of the south, 1 ask
you, as a Christian minister to kindly
stop this barbarous treatment, which
brings disgrace upon your county,"

tees are the heads of the five institutions

the Carnegie institution of Washington,
Robert S. Woodward, president; Carnegie
hero fund commission, Pittsburg, Charles

of Pittsburg, William NJ. Frew, president.
The successors of these five men become
ex-oficio trustees of the Carnegie cor
poration of New York. In addition there
are three life trustees-Andrew Carnegie,
Robert A. Franks and James Bertram.
In the meeting the trustees took I'M
der consideration a number of matters
directly in their keeping and concerning
the details of which no announcement
was made, but the principal item of bus
mess passed upon was the pension plan
for ex-presidents Of the United States
and their widows.
THE GRANT.
The official announcement covering the
matter follows:
Provision has been made through
this corporation for a pension for each
future ex-president and his widow, I'M
married, of twenty-five thousand dollars
(S25,0O0) per year, as long as these re-
main unprovided for by the nation, that
they may be able to spend the latter
part of their lives devoting their unique
knowledge gained of the public affairs
to the public good free from pecuniary
cares. These pensions will be promptly
offered to the ex-presidents or their
widows, so that no application will be
required from them"
