$4,000, signed by john D. Rookie
Teller, has ben received by the
Georgia School of technology Tor
the new Y. M. C. A. building. This
is the fourth installment from
Mr.. Rockefeller on a subscription
of $4,000. $4,000 more is still
due, and will be received about the
time of the completion of the build
ing.
The building is already far under
way, and by March it is hoped that
it will be ready for occupancy.
In addition to this important
improvement, the Tech has pur-
chased three acres Of land, adJoln'
ing the North end Of the campouS.
The land came at a bargain and
will give the Tech additional ground
SPACE of which it was very much
in need. There are some 709 stu
dents enrolled at the institution.

State Could Pay Debts
And Still Have Surplus

Atlanta, June, 4-If the state OF
Georgia, DESTROYS Of getting square
with the world, would sell all her
extra property, and devote the pro-
ceeds to paying off all her public
indebtedness, she would be square
with the world, and would still
have handsome surplus on hand,
in addition to the state buildings
and other indispensable Institutions
which are not figured in as saleable.
In other words, though. Georgia
must have a heavy public pended
debt, she is more than solvent. Her
credit ranks high among the states
1t is a good deal better than that
of some nations.
The bonded indebtedness Of the
state is now $6,834,202. The state
road of immense value, and other
state owned properties, aggregate
many millions.

State Hay Forbid
Sale Of Pistols
Christmas Gives Lesson-ShoWs
Need of Safeguarding Lives
From Gun-TOters

Atlanta, &c. Jar. 3,-If Christmas
casualties have not been 50 far for
gotten by the time the Legislature
meets in the summer of 1912, effort
will undoubtedly be made to secure
some drastic legislation against the
sale of pistols particularly and dang
erous weapons in general.
Police departments and courts are
unit on the subject that some
thing should be done to put stop
to the indiscriminate sale Of pistols,
too often to negroes and irresponsi-
BE whites. Anybody can 90 into
pawnshop these days and buy an
iold pistol with ammunition which
will do execution despite its second
hand condition.
There were approximately fifty
cases before Recorder Nash Broyles
following Christmas in which pistols
figured, killings, intentional shoot
ings and accidents. In not one of
the fifty cases had the owners of the
pistols complied with the new law
which requires that every person
carrying a pistol shall procure a IL
canse from the Ordinary. Even
then they cannot Gerry them con-
cealed.
1t is proposed now at least to Sc
cure law which shall require every
person purchasing a pistol to re1isa
Ter bis name, age and address with
the vendor; to require that this rec
ord shall be held for police inspec"~
ton and to make it a misdemeanOr
for a person either to buy or sell a
pistol without such registration.
This will enable the police to keep
track of all purchasers Of dangerous
weapons and will in effect compel
every person owning one who prc+'
poses to carry it around with him
to procure the required license. The
police, too, can keep track of ire
sponsible persons and either confis-
cate their weapons where they have
no business with them or see to it
that they do no harm.

In connection with his action

'FElree Men Roasted,
Which One Was Hurt?

Atlanta, Jan. 4.--Hot roastS were
handed to three prominent men in
the Charles w. Morse investigation
at the Federal prison. People are
wondering which Of the three has
been harmed.
Morse get MS from the prison
warden and the records, which show
ed that he had violated prison rules
by getting hold Of contraband mon
ey, and that he had tiled to give
the warden $1,000 Of it, presumably
as a bribe.
Warden William NJ. Meyer got
his from Editor f. L. Seely, who was
on the spot OF the hea.inG. He ac-
cused Meyer of treating Morse in
the most reprehensible and unfair
way, after the incident of the 81, 600
in some way got to the department
of Justice. Mr.. Seely practically
called MIR. Meyers veracity into
question on number Of points, and
charged the warden with sending
out reports prejudicial to Morse.
Editor F. |. SaeIy got his. War
den Meyer said fatty that the things
published in Mr. Seely's paper about
Morses severe punishment were Tn
true, and that if any more such
things were printed he would hold
Mr.. Seely personally responsible for
lit. Mr.. Meyer also said, without
attempting to veil the meaning
under his words, that he thought
Mr.. Seely WuoId have mighty hard
time to convince the public that
his interests in Morse were entirely
unselfsh.
So there you are. Three men
roasted. Which will it hurt most?
That is the question people here are
asking. 1t is answered in various
ways. Mr.. Seely is a newspaper
editor. He is sure to get "cussed'
some fines All editors are. 1t
probably won't make much differ
ence to him. Warden Meyer is not
dependent on public opinion for his
| lob. His fate is in the hands of the
department Of justice, and the inves-
ti9ati0n didn't bring out anything
that the department Of justice did
not already know. 1t is assumed
that the investigation and inforna-
ton given out by Meyer were with
the knowledge and consent of that
very department, SO he won't be
hurt, it is argued.
That leaves Charles W. Morse.
And the pretty definite opinion here
is that Morse is the goat. Public
sympathy has been one Of Morse S
strongest cards. 1t is assumed that
the feeling Of the American public
is b0nnd to have some weight with
a president who will shortly stand
before the public as a candidate.
The story that Morse manipulated
the stocks, at least once, and had
his hand on wall street, stretched
through the prison bars, has gone all
over the United States. With it
has gone the statement showing
that he was never punished at the

federal prison as severely as sympa
thizing reports had said.
Il object to having my client
made the goat Of this wrangle, said
Attorney 7. B. Fielder, representing
Morse, before the argument started.
And it seems MIR. Fielder was good
prophet.
