The many friends of Capt Charles

his nativity, will be pleased to learn
that he has resumed his former posi-
ton in the state treasury department
which, as the result of impaired health
several years ago he resigned and
went to his present mountain home
near GAINESVILLE. With his health
greatly improved he goes mack to the
treasury department to greet his
friends there
The following special was sent out
from Atlanta yesterday:
Atlanta, March 2O,-state Treasurer
Speer announces that he has secured
the services of Capt Charles T. Fur
low in the treasury department. Capt.
Furlow is returning to his old place
where he was employed many years up
to some six years ago, when he retired
on account of failing health.

does look anything else. He has put

says that he feels sure that he still is
good for several years of active en-
Iployment.
There are few better known or more
lovable men in Georgia that Charles
Furlow. He was very popular when
he was in the department, and Treas
urer Speer is to be congratulated on
adding him to his official force again.

Musuem of Natural History $4,000 AMI

This offer was made in two letters

10000 Men Available

In case of actual warfare approx
mately 10000 men can be Immediately
thrown into action in the field, &C
cording to figures obtained here. The
militia furnishes better fighters than
volunteers, but the militiamen cannot
be counted as regulars, for it would
require, perhaps, three months to get
them in proper fighting trim That
section of the regular army mustered
at Galveston now is in the finest kind
of fighting condition. Living in the
open, under canvas, for one year the
officers and men have faced summer
heat and winte" cold alike and are
hardened to the maximum point, while
tedious and brilliant maneuvers that
are constantly being held have kept
all of the battaIions on their toes until
they are up to the lates war actics.
Great advances have been made by
the army officials. For instance the
rife now in use has a range of 2SjU
yards, more than one and one-half
miles, and it has the necessary wind
ranges for various winds. The militia,
regular infantrymen and the navy have
the same style and model guns, where
as during the Spanish-American war
the navy had one kind, the army an
other, and the militiamen were sup
piled with half dozen different mod
els and calibre guns.

tleships and nine old battleships, Is

And there is every reason why Republicans should
stand for like Governor Wilson. He is OF the

mainly TO the financial troubles OF
The country brought about by dem
ocratic administration, combining his
figures 10 conditions as they existed
before the outbreak Of the European
war. During the last year of re-
publican rule, business failures in
the United States were one hundred
and eight million; during the first
year of democratic rule, one h'"-
dred and eighty-iive million: dur
ing the last year of republican rule
there were seventy thousand idle
freight cars; during the first year
of democratic rule there were two
hundred and twenty thousand; dur
ing the last year of republican rule
there were practically no men un-
employed; during the first year of
democratic rule there were more
than million men out of their jobs.
The Government has lost twenty
nine million dollars by putting wool
on the free list, and no man has
yet bought any wooden garment for
a cent less than the old prices.
He also reminded his hearers that
the democrats are not in majority
