GEORGIA WILL FIGHT WEEVIL
Preparing to Work With National
Government by GUARANTEEING Cot
ton From Infected Counties.

ATLANTA.-Georgia is preparing
to do what other Southern states
have already done, prepare to do bat
tie with the boil weevil. The state
is making plans to work with the ma
tional government by quarantining
cotton from infected counties, appro-
priating funds for the prevention
work, and making every possible eff
fort to keep the pest out of the state.
Uncle Sam is getting ready for the
fight in Georgia. The total fund to
be spent by the government in this
state this year will be $4,000, the
increase depending upon proper CO.
operation by Georgia officials.
Corn clubs and canning clubs,
farm demonstration agents and bu-
reau of information for farmers will
be among the means employed to
spread information as to methods of
combating the weevil. Diversified
ton of crops is urged as the greatest
weapon against the pest, for it can
literally be starved out in the alb
sence of it's favorite foods.

STORMY SESSION OVER BOOKS
MCRORY'S BILL CAUSES WARM
DEBATE IN LEGISLATURE.
Representative McNIichaeI, Charged
With Being Agent of Book Trust,
Admits Representing Firm.

ATLANTA a more or less
stormy session in which the charge
of being an agent of a book trust was
hurled at Representative McMhhael
of Marion, charge he admitted by
stating that he represented a con-
Germ selling some school books used
in Georgia, the house yesterday pass
ed the McCrory resolution providing
for commission to investigate the
cost of school books and provision
that any book contract made can be
abrogated on six months notice. 1t
passed 142 to 0, but that vote does
not show the heated discussion lead
ing up to it.
Mr.. Adams of Hall offered a sub
stitute for a two-year contract, but
to have the state board of education
do the investigating. Around this the
storm centered, and Mr.. McMichael
advocated it vigorously.
Mr.. Moon of Troup charged that it
was being advocated by a represent
alive of the book trust, but Mr.. Adj
ans claimed it was offered by him
without any suggestion from Mr.. Nc
Michael. However, Mr.. Moon insist
ed that the two had been in frequent
consultation just before it had been
offered. Finally Mr. Adams with
drew it, and the McCrory resolution
passed.
A fight opened up shortly before
the hour for adjournment to get the
McCrory bill to have the state print
certain of its school books set for a
special order today A fiIibuster re-
suited, and the hour of adjournment
arrived while vote was being taken
on a motion to adjourn.
This bill has received favorably
committee action, but the rules COM
mittee refuses to set it. Mr.. McCrory
says that under the Ontario plan
Georgia would save 100000 annu-
ally on the price of school books.

Here Is an Example of What Rich
Men Have to Pay.
When the wife of a rich man in
New York gets a divorce 1t generally
costs the embarrassed husband
pretty penny in the way of costs and
alimony.
Geo. G.. Haye, a Manhattan broker,
whose wife has just been accorded a
divorce, must turn over to Mrs Haye
all the expensive household effects
in their apartments, all those which
may be in storage, valuable dia-
mond necklace, 10 paintings, $4,000
in cash, an additional $4,000 next
January, and a yearly sum of $751;
600 in the for of alimony. He
must also pay 5000 a year for the
support of his two children until they
are of age and he must pay Mrs.
Hayes lawyer $4,000.
Mrs. Haye asked for $4,000 a
year, but the judge refused this and
lectured her soundly for her hoggish-
ness. Probably, however, she is pref
ty we'll satisfied with her financial
outlook for the future.

GEORGIA WOMAN HEADS ROAD
WILLIAMS LEFT GUIDANCE OF G.
F. & A. IN HANDS OF WIFE.
She Has Unusual Business Ability
and Is Expected to Prove Equal
To the Big Task.

Georgia has the only woman in the
South and possibly the only one in
the world who absolutely owns in
her own right a 200-mile interstate
railroad with its trains, stations, ter
minals, shops, docks and steamboat
line.
In addition she is one of the lar
gest individual land owners in the
United States, controlling, as she
does, a quarter of million acres OF
farming, timber and cut-over lands
in Georgia and Florida.
She is Mrs. Jesse P. Williams,
whose distinguished husband, a cap
tain of industry, died in Atlanta last
Tuesday.
With his death the large estate,
approximating 100000, passed to
his wife, who during the last few
years of his life, when he was an in
valid, was his closest counselor and
for much of the time the virtual
manager of his extensive interests.
Knowing her husbands wishes and
policies she with their able and
faithful lieutenants carried them out.
Will Manage the g., F. & A.
1t is the belief of Mrs. Williams
close friends that it is her purpose
to handle the large properties just
as Capt. Williams would have done;
in other words, to continue to carry
out his wishes and, especially, to so
direct the railroad that it shall stead
lily grow to be a stronger factor in
the development of Southwest Geor-
gia and West Florida.
AS Mrs. Williams owns all Of the
100000 of bonds and go per cent
of the Georgia, Florida and Alabama
Railroad Company's stock it is as
sumed that the directors will elect
her president to fill the vacancy on
her own road. She has able and ex-
perienced traffic and operating lieu
tenants thoroughly loyal to her in
terests.
-FFhen, too, the patrons of the road,
from Riehland down through Cuth-
bert, Carnegie, Edison, Arlington,
tGolquitt, cambridge, Havana, Quin-
cy and Tallahassee to Carrabelle and
are in hearty sympa-
I thy with her aim to develop all the
/ territory .traversed by her railroad.
F Much of that land is the finest farm
! ing country in America.

ALL BY HER LONESOME ;"
DOUGHERTY COUNTY WOULD BE
ENTIRE JUDICIAL CIRCUIT.
From Judge Park is Said Not to
Have Been Given Up.

ALBANY, Ga.-That the move
ment to take Albany out of the AL
bany judicial circuit was not entire
ly abandoned when Senator Ford
withdrew his county removal bill
from the senate has become quite APP
parent since that time by the discus
sion of those who attended the COM
mittee hearing in favor of the bill
among other friends of the move
ment here.
A plan is now on foot whereby an
effort will be made to create new
superior 5udgeship for Dougherty
county alone, the idea being to abol-
ish the city court of Albany and
have the new court judge to do the
work of both courts.
Those who favor the movement
contend that Albany is large enough
now to have a court of its own.
1t is argued that Albany and
Dougherty county have enough court
business TO justify such a move. 1t
is proposed in the event the plan
meets with favor among the people
of Albany that a bill be introduced in
the legislature at its next session, as
there is not time to perfect the plans
and get such a bill through at the
present session.
1t would be necessary to have an
election, or at least petition signed
by a majority of the voters of the
county, and that also viii require
considerable time.
