Not Taken in by Fellows on
Plot to Overthrow Former
President Pro Tenn.
By JAMES B. NEVIN.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-In CON
sidering and undertaking to analyze the
news from Washington nowadays as it
affects the fights for patronage, Geor-
gians should remember that Senator
Hoke Smith, whether he desires to be
or not, is the storm center about which
it revolvcs.
The disposition of every office seeker
who comes to Washington is to seek
Senator Smiths inf1uence-which is
powerful, if not always available-and
the furthet disposition of every disap-
pointed one is to blame it all upon the
junior senator.
Senator Smith is, with Senators Gore
OGorman and Kern, one Of the big
four members of the au-important and
arbitrary steering committee. who are
undertaking the reorganization Of the
senate along progressive lines and in
opposition to the theory Of seniority.
The defeat Of Senator Bacon for
president pro tenn of the senate came
about through the logical and practical
application of the anti-seniorlty theory
Of advancement in the senate.
Senator Smith Didn't Know.
1t is not nece ssarilv warranted con-
clusiou. however. that Senator Smith
had previous knowledge Of the effort to
Gust Bacon from power and the Sus-
picion in the minds Of some shat Inc did
arises from The circumstance OF mis-
nearpess to Gore. O'GorWap and Kern.
Who accomplished BIron's downfall.
senator Smiths statement that me
had no previous know ledge Of the Hght
on Bacon, ana was astoundcd that it
came about, generally is accepted as
true statement--the doubt in some
minds being considered the father to
the thought.
1t is true that Senator Smith did hear
something Of a fight on Bacon on at
least two occasions previous to the eli
max Of BacOns defeat. but neither
warning impressed him. Senator Reed
Of Missouri. said to Senator Smith the
day before the catastrophe that he
feared for Bacon, and thought some
thing was up. Senator Smith, however,
says he thought lightly of the wa rnings.
and did not mention either to Senator
Bacon
Situation Rather Strange.
That he was astonished and anx-
iously concerned over Bacon's demo-
tion, accompli lishel AT the hands Of Sen
ator smiths intimateS. is accepted as
true, hut ii is also considered strange

formed sucn service against Senator

Quarterly Dividends
To Be Paid by Trust
Company of Georgia
Drops Semi mi-Annual Payments in
Belief New Plan Will Make
Easier Money.

Pie four times a year instead Of
twice is to be the treat for stockholders
in the Trust Company of Georgia. III
common with nearly every institution
in Atlanta, the Trust Company of
Georgia has been paying dividends
semi-annually. It is reported reliably
that in future, dividends will be de-
clared four times year.
Other cities enjoy quarterly dividends
and many students of business condi-
tions believe this tends toward easier
money. But Atlanta has chung TO the
semi-annual plan, which makes for less
bookkeeping Whether the example of
the Trust Company of Georgia will be
followed by other institutions is doubt
full.
This company has capital of $1,000,-
600 and surplus of 100000, Last year
it paid eight per cent.

DOME is NEAR COMPLETION
Final Work Begun Upon Lofty Apex
of Wisconsin's State House
at Madison.

Observation-Disclosures are busy now
putting up the great cranes at the
very top of the structural work of the
dome on the statehouse in prepare
ton for the task of placing the gran
lite on the curved portion of the dome,
the finishing touch to the covering of
that huge structure. The granite has
all been placed up to the beginning of
the curve and as soon as the derricks
are safely anchored on the high perch
$50 feet above the ground, the final
work will be begun.
The granite is nearly all on hand
now and it is not expected that there
will be any delay for want of material.
Magnus Swenson, member of the
capital commission, said the other day
that while. there had been some delay
on account of labor troubles at the
quarries, this had now been overcome.
The work of cutting the stone for
this curved work which is done in the
quarries is most particular, inasmuch
as each piece must have the proper
curvature both outside and in, and be
made to fit perfectly in the place for
which it is intended.

FAIR ATTENDANCE.
1O8,o74

Milwaukee.-Whent the ticket takers
of the 1913 state fair passed the last
patron through the gates the attend
ance record of 1912 had been surpassed
by 1913 by 3,041.
Had it not been for the rain on
milwaukee, day. which kept thou
sands away, the 1913 fair would have
hung up new record for attendance.
1t had been claimed for several days
that the fair, as an agricultural exhibit
ton, had been a greater success than
ever before, and this was conceded by
the majority of the patrons.
The total attendance in 1912 was
10S,974. That of 1913 was 112,O15, ac-
cording to the figures which had been
tabulated at the Office of Secretary
Mackenzie.
The opening day this year fell short
by more than 500 of the mark set on
Tuesday, the opening day of last year;
on Wednesday, state fair day in 1912,
was exceeded by the Wisconsin day
attendance of this year by about 1000,
while Milwaukee day this year, owing
to the elements, was approximately
$4,000 less than the figures of last year.
Receipts for the week were $685.
221.97. About $4,000 more will be add
ed to this from collections yet to come.
Last year the receipts for the five days
of the fair were $71,147O2. In 1911
the total amount was $73,776O4; in
1910, receipts were $7S,4SS.96, and in
1909, the total was $78,99793.
One notable feature about this fair
was the interest that northern Wiscon-
sin has shown. From that section Of
the state have come some notable ex-
hibits. The men from upper Wiscon-
sin are determined to secure appropri-
atoms from their county boards for
the erection of northern Wisconsin
building to house the exhibits of eight
counties during future state fairs.
