The Central Is Doing Its Part.

OF especial qualification to the
people of Lee county should be the
hearty and most cordial manner in
which the people Of Lee county are
cooperating with the Central in the
development of the tract recently
acquired by that railroad, justsouth
Of Leesburg and the manner in
which the people of the coudty are
giving their approval and unani-
nous support to this new develop
ment work.
The Central selected the Lee coun-
ty tract because it offered more gem
eral advantages than did any other
available tract along its entire lines.
After the railroad had once selected
the Lee county tract it went to work
Immediately and vigorously IN doing
its part to make bring a large num-
Der Of good whiteimmigants to Lee
county Immediately. There was no
waiting about the matter. There
has been and will be vigorous ac-
ton until the entire tract is settled.
So cordially and promptly have
both the Central and Lee county
acted that it seems that the tract
will be settled practically before the
fail and winter seasons have closed.
This is most striking example OF
commendable and cordial co-orera-
ton. 1t means great things for Lee
county. The people Of the county
should pull together stronger and
harder than ever to make this the
best county Of its size and oppor.

YES, BEGIN AT HOME.

A great deal is being said and
printed in Georgia these days a
bout tax reform. The best tax re.
form that we can think Of at this
time would be to quit spending so
much money and reduce the rates
Of taxation, which have reached the
limit in the state and almost every
county, city, town and hamlet.

SMALL CONCERNS
TO FEEL 1T FIRST
German Iron and Seel Experts Are
Already Here Getting Data With
view to Entering Amer

By HOLLAND

New York. September 2S.-(Special)
There are many men of many minds re-
speeting the effect upon American indus
try of the enactment of the tariff bill
now before Congress. Charles NJ. Sehwab,
for instance, seems not to be especially
hopeful so far as the iron and steel man
ufacturing business is concerned, while on
the other hand some of the executive Of
ficers of the United States Steel corpora
ton are not ready now to accept Mr..
Schwab's view as correct.
Upon one point there is, however, gem
eral agreement, and that is that the
country must wait until the new law has
had opportunity for thorough testing be-
fore the final and accurate opinion about
il can be obtained, many think that
American business, in some fields at least
has already discounted the effect of the
tariff law. There is, however, one immed-
late effect of which our business men have
only within a few days had knowledge
1t is now reported on excellent author
ity that Germany has been sending to the
United States some of her abIest statesmen
who for the most part represent German
iron and steel manufacturing interests.
They are here to look over the field. They
are getting good knowledge of the quoted
prices of American iron and steel prod
ucts, and they are presumably getting
ready to offer in the American market
iron and steel products manufactured in
Germany and to make quotations which
will fall considerably below the standard
American quotation for like products.
OF course, the appearance of these Ger

NEGRO INSURANCE
CONCERNS COMBINE
Consolidation of Birming-
ham Companies Means
Much For Both

The consolidation of the Peoples Mutual
Aid association of Birmingham with the
Union Mutual Aid association of Mobile
which was eonsummated Friday. at the
instance of DIR. u G. Mason and asso.
| ciates representing the Birmingham COM
pany, and. W. B. Driver, district manager
of the Mobile company, makes Alabama
the home of the largest negro insurance
company in the country
The consolidation of these two COM
panies is said to mean much in the mat
ter of cooperation between the leading
forces of the negroes in this state AT
the head of the Peoples Mutual Aid as
sociation is DR.. U. G. Mason of this
city, president of the, Prudential Savings
bank, and Samuel L.. Mason, president of
the company. At the head of the Union
Mutual Aid association is Dr. c. First
Johnson, the pioneer of negro insurance
organizations in the state and leader in
various activities among the colored peo-
pie.
The two companies combined will have
capital stock much in excess of any
other organization of it's kind operated
by negroes and will be managed from the
Mobile office The Birmingham office
of course will work a large force OF
|, men, including all of the agents and rep.
resentatives formerly employed by tn,
two companies For the purpose of expe
diting the work OF adjustment to the new
management the offices OF the Unor
Mutual Aid association will be moved
from the Alabama Penny Savings bank t
quarters formerly occupied by the Peo
pies Mutual Aid association in the Masor
building on Third avenue.

CHINESE GENERAL
OFFERS AN APOLOGY
Chang-Hsun Makes Amends
For Insult Offered to the
Japanese Flag

Nanking, September 2s.-Gen. Chang
Hsun, the commander of the Chinese
troops at Marking. accompanied by a
bodyguard of SO cavalry, went to the
Japanese consulate this morning and apol-
ognized, in accordance with the Japanese
demands in connection with the killing
of several Japanese and an insult offered
to the Japanese flag. The consul ex-
pressed his satisfaction at the action of
the Chinese commander.
Peking, September 2S.-The Japanese le-
cation emphatically denied today that an
ultimatum had been sent by the Japanese
government to China. The legation stated
that the CHINESE authorities at Hancow
and Nanking had fully complied with
the Japanese demands.
A Shanghai dispatch of September q
announced that the Japanese minister had
presented an ultimatum to China allowing
three days to comply with Japans de-
mands resulting from the recent attacks
on Japanese at Nanking. The obstacle to
compliance with the demands, it was
feared, would be Gen. Chang Hsuns re-
fusal to ofer an official apology.
later dispatch from Picking declared
that the Japanese warships with marines
aboard were awaiting the issue on the
Yantse river
