THE LOCAL SPIRIT.

 The Local Spirit never dies. Though it Is mostly rotten. For Local Spite and local lies Can never be forgotten: The local truth dies very young When wed to local merit Iris murdered by the envious tongue And-thats the Local Spirit. The General Good Is sacrificed, In spite or all petitions. To paltry private interests And local mean ambitions. And when we lose meath fortunes The manhood we inherit. The Local Spirit treads us down For that's the Local Spirit. But. though they may be very few. And poor as autumn stubble, The local friends are leal and true Whenever ones in trouble. They make man hold up his head And face the world and dare itt And thats-when all is done and said The other Local Spirit. Henry Lawson. in sydney Bulletin

NEW PLAN To

On FEET
Capital To Be Decreased Under
Promoters Standardization
Sale April q.

Officials in Atlanta of the Atlanta,
Birmingham and Atlantic Railroad
Tuesday explained the published an
nouncement of the plans for the re-
organization of a new company to be
known as the Georgia, Ala bama and
Western Railway Company, declaring
that the plans were merely tentative,
and would go into effect only if the
present bondholders of the road, rep
resented mainly by the Old Colony
Trust Company Of Boston, obtained
possession at the public auction sale
April %.
The road under an order by the
United States Court, will be sold al
public outcry, having been declared
insolvent Rather than jeopardize
their investments, the Eastern capt.
talists who hold the bonds prefer TO
take over the entire control of the
road, and will be the most insistent
bidders. It is the general belief in
financial circles that their bid will be
successful unless too strenuous OPP
position develops from the Louisville
and Nashville interests. which, ru-
NOR asserts. have cast an envious eve
toward the A. B. and A.
Few Changes Expected
Local employees Of the road are
confident that the present bondhold-
ers will retain control, and therefore
anticipate no changes in the opera
ton. methods or working force to
follow the public sale. There will he.
Of course, a great task in revising
stationery, tickets, tariff schedules
and the minor technical details TO fl.
the change Of name, but that will be
all.
The reorganization plan involves
new figures for capital stock, which
will be great deal less than the
original capitalization, the difference
to represent the loss in value 10 the
bondholders and stockholders be
cause of the insolvency. The new fig
ures are such that the earnings of the
road will be adequate to pay all in
terest oblga lions
To Start Out Anew.
The receivershIp will be eliminated
upon sale of the road, and the insi-
tuition viii be given a new lease on
life as solvent, substantial, self
governing concern.
The new company If the plans Of
the bondholders materialize, viii have
a capitalization Of $2I0OO00O common
stock. s32OOo0O non cumulative pre-
ferred. $2,50O,O0o first and general

Chorus Girls Offer
ToDance in Court Is
Rejected by Broyles

Mildred Kelly, who adorns the front
row in the chorus of a local theater,
Tuesday offered to show Recorder
Broyles in court how she danced the
night before to prove that Investl-
gator Ed Arthur's charges against her
grew out of puritanical prejudice.
The police censor had declared her
dance nearly as bad as the famous
gyrations that startled Herod some
time ago, and entirely too risque for
an Atlanta audience.
Miss Kelly's offer failed to impress
Judge Broyles, who was greatly
shocked by Arthur's recital, and fined
the young woman $50. The next time
it will be Jail" said the Recorder.
