LEMERT HORSE
SALE DRAWS
BIG CROWD
SATURDAY WAS AN IDEAL DAY
AND A LARGE NUMBER OF
PEOPLE ARE IN CITY
ATTENDING SALE.
SIxTY-F|VE HEAD OF HORSES
Sale Began Before Noon, and Bids
Are Lively, Showing Buyers Ap-
preciate Efforts In Bringing
Good Stock To Them.
SIXTY-F|vE HEAD OF HORSES

Saturday, Jan. 81, was a bright
sunny day. Not too warm, and not
very cold. Early in the day the
street In front of he Lemert barn
was covered with not cinders, max
ing a sure footing for the horses
that were to be promenaded for the
great horse sale which had been ad-
vertised for weeks.
About sixty-fve head of horses
OF all kinds were entered for the
sale, including one span Of mules.
Early in the day men came pour
ing into town, some even coming
last evening, SO as to be here In time.
Trains from all directions brought
crowds of people, the Vandalia south
bound train at IL :04 was packed,
and as it came to halt at the sta
ton they came jumping out of the
baggage car even.
The sale began before noon, as it
was feared that all could not be
done In half lay. As we write the
auctioneers are crying the bids that
are made, and the stablemen are
showing off the qualities of the stock
they have to offer. The biding
seems to an on-looker to be fair, and
Mr.. Lemert should realize well on
the bunch of horses that he has gath
cred for this sale.

COMMUNITIES SHOULD BEAR THE
BURDEN.

The announcement comes from Adj
jutant General Obear that the state
was put to an additional expense OF
81, 900 by the necessity put upon it OF
maintaining order at Augusta by the
use of the military
While the amount is not great, con-
sidering the good effect the presence
of the troops had, the thought suggests
itself, why should the state be called
upon to bear the burden? Why should
it not be placed upon the city of Au-
susta, or The ,ounty of Richmo' =.
where the disorder occurred that re-
uTired the )rcs,rce the STATE 20 rs.
If there had been any determination
on the part of the mayor or sheriff to
repress violence by stern means it
could probably have been done Mayors
can swear in as manys police officers
as they see fit. Sheriffs are not limit
ed as to the number of their deputies.
Given such broad power it really does
seem that man in office, with suffici-
ent grit, and not Influenced by person
al, or factional, political considerations
could nip disorder in the bud and eff
fectually repress those inclined to be
| lawless
/ 1t might not be a bad idea for the
legislature to put the expense of the
state forces on the community that
calls for them. The police force of the
city is paid out of the city treasury,
the deputy sheriffs receive their wages
from the county treasury Why should
ne state tr)0pf l;t ing their place to
burden on the general public outside
the city or county to which they are
called?
Furthermore, if there is no such law,
Georgia might well enact statute
making every m N, ipality and cGIi,iy
responsible for damages done by
rioters. If the taxpayers of a city or
county knew that they were to be held
financially responsible for the property
destroyed they would be quick to rally
to the local authorities in preventing
damage 1t is but just that this should
be the case
Throwing the full burden on the
community whe,e the disorder oc;r"s
might go a long v avs toward checking
such scenes as recently occurred in
Augusta, Touch a mans pocketbook
in this way and he becomes speedily
an active opponent of those who be-
lieve strike furnishes sufficient pro-
vocation for wholesale rapine.

MACON BANKS MAY
UNITE FORTUNES
Would Give City Concern With
Big Assets

Macon, Ga. Nov ia plan to con-
soldate the American National and
the Fourth National, the two largest
banks of Macon, is now being seriously
and even favorably considered by some
of the officers and stockholders of
those institutions.
This has been generally reporte
about Macon for several days,
The American National is capital
lied at 100000 and has surplus OF
$5O0,OOO The Fourth National Is
capitalized at 100000 and has sur
plus of 100000. Their merger would
give Macon a million and half dollar
mank, making it one of the largest
and strongest financial institutions in
the South.
No official action has been taken
as yet by either the American Ma
tional or the Fourth National.

AMERICUS man
STARTS IN A
new VENTURE
.FATTENS CATTLE ON seed
Repeating Experiment Car
riGd Out Here Before

Several years ago Mr.. George W
Riley, manager Of the Farmers Oil
Company, bought large number of
cattle in Florida, shipped them to
Americas, pastured them in big field
near the mill and proceeded to fatten
them for market with cotton seed. The
results at the time were said to have
been quite satisfactory, but only this
batch of cowds, several hundred in
number, were handled
MIR. Riley's son, George G. Riley,
who went from Americas to Dawson as
manager of the Dawson Cotton Oil Co.,
proposes to repeat the experiment over
there and figures on handling thous-
and cattle this winter.
The Dawson News says:
1T is Mr.. Riley's purpose to feed
the cattle cotton seed meal and fat
ten them for market 1t is a we'll
known fact that there is nothing
that puts flesh on cattle faster than
cotton seed meal, and Mr.. Riley, who
had experience of this kind before
coming to Dawson, has found it prof
itabl, to convert cotton seed meal in
to beef
After the cattle have been fattened
they will be sold and shipped to
butchers and packing houses in the
cities.
The demand for beef insures the
sale of the cattle, after they have
been put in condition for market at
fancy price"
