Americas Gives Orders
For Women to Leave

Americas, Ca. Sept. 30.-The
overflow from Atlanta's restrict
ed district reached Americas last
night, and within twenty-four
hours were given orders in the
recorders court to travel further.
For two years Americas has been
free practically from disreputable
resorts and through vigilance of
the police department all houses
have been kept closed. The At
lanta delegation from Manhattan
were the first appearing here in
considerable time. The house
was raided last night by police
officers, and the women brought
into court today. Mayor Mathis
gave them five days wherein to
quit Americas forever or suffer
the penalty. The women have
employed counsel and intend to
make a fight on deportation.

Coin Made in Georgia.

Brunswick, Ga, Sept. 20. DIR.
M. N. Stow, Of Jessup, is the
owner of a S. gold piece which
has the unusual distinction of
having never been out of the
state of Georgia. The gold in
the unique coin was mined in
Lumpkin county before the civil
war and was coined in the old
United States mint at Dalonega
in the same county. The coin
was paid as a part of the salary
of an employee in the mint, who,
after keeping it for a time as a
curiosity, presented it to DR..
Stow, who takes a deep interest
in such curios. Up to the time
DR.. Stow moved to Jessup, it had
never been removed from the
the county in which it was mint
ed.

Business Conditions
In the South

Atlanta, Sept. 80. "A big bust
ness year in Georgia, in fact for
the entire South, is the predic-
ton of local bankers. Despite
the fact that predictions have
been made that a great slump
would come and that, as usual in
a presidential year, there would
be confusion and a FALLING off in
bushes, there is now every indi-
cation that there will be increas-
ed volume of business and con-
tinued prosperity,
People have ceased to concern
themselves about the bad effect
the approaching November cleo
ton was EXPECTED to have on the
country, and it is now evident
that the United States is in a
position to forestall reversals
incidental to a national election,
for the reason this coUn ry has
produced things which bring
p 'osperity.
The estimated value of the
principal crops is $11, 600, 100000,
or $500, 600, more than last
year. The increased production
of oil, coal and minerals makes
more wealth and prosperity for
the country.
While Uncle Sam has been for
tunate in the increased yield OF
the soil and the mines, having
made more than this county can
consume, European countries
have not been so fortunate, and
they must depend on his country
for their foodstuffs, and as the
United States has a great surplus
of these things, this country will
exchange them for the gold of
Europe.
Where a country produces more
than it consumes there is bound
to be prosperity-and that is what
thoughtful and observant bust
ness men in Atlanta predict for
the south and the nation at large.

Atlanta J. P.'s Want
Offices Abolished

Ktlanta, Sept %. One Of the
most amazing features in connec-
ton with the amendment to
abolish the the present justice Of
the peace system in such large
Georgia cities as want to make
the change, is the fact that At
lanta's leading justices Of the
peace are frankly admitting the
disvantages of the present sys-
TEN, and are advising their
friends to vote for the change,
Such justices of the peace as
Edgar Orr, Judge Ridley, Judge
D. K. Johnston, Judge Cotton
Lynes and others have come out
positively in favor of the consti-
tutional amendment. which is to
be voted on at the polls Wedne< =
day.
They believe the system should
be changed in the large
cities. They also believe itshould
be changed to towns and rural
communities. They are calling
the attention of their rural breth-
rem to the fact that the amend
ment does not touch the system
except in large cities, and that it
leaves the town and country JUS
tice of the peace courts exactly
as they now are.
Endorsed by the bar, by the
labor declarations all over the
state, by the assembly, there
seems practically no opposition to
the amendment and it is expected
to go through almost unanimous

The Treasury Turmoil.

The House of Representatives should
proceed with careful consideration in the
matter of the proposed investigation OF
the Treasury Department. inspired by
the forced resignation OF Assistant Sec
rotary Andrew. The case appears to be
fully disclosed in Mr.. Andrews letter to
the President complying with the request
for mis- resignation. the full text OF which
he himself furnished To the press in an
evident desire 10 obtain wide and i'm
mediate publicity. Nothing appears in
that letter OF a character to justify con-
sressional procedure. Mr.. Andrews COM
plant against Secretary MacVeagh Is
purely one OF temperamental incompati-
bility, the cause so often cited In matri-
monial separation pI Ioceedings. He al
leges no wrongdoinS no shade OF NAL
feasance in of!ice, no degree of question
able procedure. merely an inability on
the part of the Secretary to work har-
moniousiy with his associates and sub
ordinates. some of whom the retiring
assistant cites as witnesses. The most
extraordinary part of this letter is the
presumably gra;uitous use OF these names

derstand how they can continue IN ONCE,
| even though they may have allowed him
to be their spokesman for the present.
while, on the other hand, II he has mis-
represented their sentiments and relations
with the Secretary they should be prompt
to repudiate his statement of their posi-
tion.
This would seem to be entirely a mat
ter within the range Of executive discre-
ton and action. Congress has from time
to time during the past year and a quar-
ter been exceptionally active in probing
into departmental conditions. In all
cases. however. save at the outset, when
executive service for possible scandals
listed. there has been some particular alle-
cation Of wrongdoing or impropriety or
indiscretion on the part of designated per-
sons. Congress has. of course, the right
to scrutinize any branch of the govern
ment at any time on any ground. 1t can
in this case. without departing from its
strict function. examine into the affairs
of the Treasury Department. But as the
matter appears now it would be pity
to waste time to bring out before a COM
mittee the trumpery affairs of depart
mental routine involving no issue of ma
tional importance and eliminating in a
purely personal disagreement between a
department head and a subordinate.
This matter can we'll be left to the
President for consideration. If further ac-
tion is to be taken. He Is more concerned
in it than Congress or the public. He is
respon sible for the executive administra-
ton of the government through those
whom he selects as his immediate help.
ers and those who are chosen in turn
by the department heads as their per-
sonal assistants There is no evidence
Of decentralization in the Treasury De-
partment Of a nature to !njure the pubic
interests, and Congress should proceed
upon the assumption that the President
Is competent to maintain an organization
in that department capable of caring for
the federal welfare.
