It begins TO look as If the policy

to pass the ordinance vaoating the

until the railway company came
through with some improvements
desired by the city was going to bear
fruit.
Evidently the company ls not only
desirious of having the street but
want It as soon as possible They
do not even wish to wait until the
next regular meeting but Wish action
taken at once
AS soon as they learned that the
council had adjourned until friday
evening for the purpose of taking up
the sreet grade ordinance hey got
busy on the other matter and waited
on the mayor and members of he
council to find out just what was
necessary on their part TO secure
favorable action on their fTdinsnoe.
They we're Informed that the prIn-
cipal things that the city wanted
wee bridges across the tracks at
Second street and Main avenue. Il
the railroad company would bind It
self to build these two bridges and
make the crossings the counciil
would be willing TO vacate the street
between Eleventh aud Twelfth as
called for In the ordinance submitt
ed. That there WAS no disposition
on the part Of the council to hold up
the company but the city had been
trying for long time to have these
two bridges built aud the other two
crossings made reasonably safe but
could obtain no satisfaction from
the company and that the mem beri
thought the present goo time tC
get recognition.
The railroad officials saw the force

Special Grand Jury Session May
Be Called to Probe Kennedy
Case at Swainsboro.

SWAINSBORO, Nov. 21.-The body
Of Mrs. Maude Kennedy, who died
from wounds inflicted three weeks
ago when her husband, while intoNi-
Gated, beat and shot her, was buried
to-day in the City Cemetery. Ken
needy, who this week was taken to the
Chatham county Jail at Savannah,
because of the feeling against him in
Emanuel county, was not permitted
TO return for the funeral.
Mrs, Kennedy's death, which took
place yesterday at her home, in the
country, had been daily expected for
3 week. Her body was brought to
the home of her father, H. H Dur
den, in Swainsboro, last night Ken
nedys brothers and other relatives
did all they could to ease the womans
suffering and II possible save her life
There Is much talk of a petition
being sent to Judge Rawlings ask
ing him to convene the Grand Jury in
special session in January TO pass on
this case. On her death bed Mrs
Kennedy gave her story to FIVE trust
ed men to be delivered on the stand
at the trial OF Kennedy, and all Of her
statements we're strongly and de-
cidedly against Kennedy.

URGE PRODUCTS
DAY AS ANNUAL
CELEBRATION
Colonel Robert F. Maddox Is in
Favor Of Yearly Holiday to
Boost Empire State.

And now the idea is that the Geor-
gia Products dinner may go further
and cover a wider field-in fact, may
become State holiday-"Georgia
Products Day"-to be observed an
nually with dinners, parades and all
sorts Of entertainments.
At least two men prominently iden-
tilted with the Georgia Products din
ner arrangements have this idea Of
the future Of the movement Robert
F. Maddox and Wilmer L. Moore are
certain that the idea is worthy OF the
greatest possible development.
Think what an impressive holiday
event a Georgia Products Day would
be-" Mr.. Maddox said Thursday, after
speaking of the success Of the din
ner.
Day Of Fesstins and Boosting.
1T would be day set apart out Of
all the year on which Georgia people
would wear with pride Georgia made
clothing, sit down at tables spread
with Georgia produced food, attend
dinners and entertainments given by
Georgians and relating in some way
to the doctrine that the Empire State
Of the South could. II 1t became nee
essary, rear a high wall about itself
and support and feed and clothe its
own people.
That part of IT, of course, is pure
llustration-Georgia isn't as selfish
as that. But It Is a great thing 10
know the vast and varied resources
of this State, and to use them to the
advantage of the State and Of the
consumer as well,

"a spectacular event like Georgia

Moore Also for Plan.
After all. 1t is the unusual, the
spectacular illustration, that Axes
principle, commercial or otherwise,
in the minds Of the people.
And buying and wearing Georgia

ing Georgia produced food and de-
voting one day in the year to Georgia
products and their uses will surely
impress their value and the reasons
for their use on the people OF Geor-

great State holiday. I can not imag-
inc a more instructive, patriotic or
useful occasion"

Now that the Supreme Court has
beer saloon nor a locker club may
be abated permanently as a nuts
ance.' or as anything else without a
trial by jury, the question has been
raised whether the various law en-
forcement leagues, so called, through
out the State have not, as a matter
Of fact, rendered their work in the
future more difficult than ever be
fore, because they likely have made
it much more difficult than formerly
to get their sort of people on the ju-
ries.
For Instance every member of the
Macon Law Enforcement League who
may be drawn upon a jury trying a
licensed near beer saloon or locker
club case, likely win be-or, at least
may be-disqualifed for service, by
reason Of his membership in the
league. On his voir dire would he
not be obliged to disqualify himself,
even If he were not disqualified other
wise?
In Rome, the Law Enforcement
League is supposed to be made up
or 70 extraordinarily IL was
known as The Committee Of TO-
but Its membership has persistently
been kept a profound secret. Its
meetings more generally than not
have been held strictly in executive
session, and all efforts to expose It's
personnel have failed, even court eff
forts
In the matter OF challenging citi-
zens rights to sit on juries trying
these locker club cases in Rome, for
instance, assuming that they may be
tried by a jury sometime will the
membership of the Law Enforcement
League of Rome be available to the
knowledge of the authorities, in their
efforts TO secure only fair and i'm
partial juries to try defendants?
And II the Law Enforcement
Leagues of Macon and Rome. and
elsewhere, have by organization dis
qualified themselves for jury esrvice
doesn't that leave the liberal" ele-
ment so to designate 1t, more likely
to be in the ascendency hereafter on
juries trying these particular cases7
