comparative statement taken today on
the floor Of the st. Paul board of trade,
not since 1910 has there been a single

THEY HAVE MUCH WORK
RUNNING GEORGIA'S PRISON DE.
PARTNIENT IS A BIG LOSS.
Among Duties of Prison Commission
Is to Look After 5000 COnvicts
and an SO-Acre Farm.

ATLANTA, ADMINISTRATION in
to convict camp conditions in Atlanta
have aroused interest in the general
situation all over the state, and the
members of the prison commission,
always vigilant in their inspection
and business tours, are redoubling
their care to see that everywhere the
law is carried out as intelligently as
circumstances will permit.
There are now in Georgia between
IT'S and 200 convict camps and
about 5000 convicts, practically all
employed ON the roads of the state.
There are about 600 conVicts at the
state farm, including the 200 at the
state reformatory. Among the chief
duties of the three members of the
state prison commission is the inspec-
ton of these camps. Of the three
commissioners, R. E. Dawson, T. E.
Patterson and E. l.. Rainey, one is al
ways on the road, and sometimes two
of them, looking after the business
of the state.
The state farm is pretty big insti-
tuition. There are eighty plows to
be looked after, and the farm raises
enough oats, hay, corn and vegeta-
bles and fresh meat to supply all the
inmates, and during the last two
years, under the efficient direction
and supervision of the prison board,
it made profit of $4,000 that went
directly into the state treasury.
In addition to inspecting prison
farm and camps the prison commits
sion has to pass on applications for
pardon and parole. During 1913 1O5
pardon applications were considered
and recommendation made.

DO YOU Want A BABY?
Here Are Number of Bright Little
Ones Who Are i'm Need of Mamas
and Good Homes.

The News has received from the
Georgia Children's Home Society the
following letter, which is self-explan-
atory:
I'VE have several attractive babies
under a year old who are willing to
go anywhere in Georgia to find a
good home where they will be loved.
Those do not wish to go to the same
home, and not one of them cares to
go where there are other little ones
in the family. Each wants to be
%the baby wherever it makes home.
Bright Little Girls Want Homes.
"Only yesterday a bright pretty
little girl, Thelma, six years old,
came to us, because both father and
mother were dead, and what else
could she do but get us to find her
another papa and mama? She wants
to fill the vacant place and make the
sunshine brighten in some childless
home. We have other girls both
younger and older than Thelma who
want somebody to love and honor as
parents.
Some Husky Little Boys, 100.
1--WE have bunch of boys from
two years old up. Little Albert is
only two; then there is Charley, Lu-
Their, Marion and Tom, each five
years old. There are still Others, for
l have not mentioned Jesse, bright
boy of ten, and others that are COM
ing in almost every day and going
ont to selected homes in the state a
few days later. We do not want any
of these children to live long in an
institution apart from mother love
and fathers leading, as long as there
are real homes for them somewhere.
Write for an application form that
will let you explain the kind of child
you want. Address Robert B. Nc
Cord, superintendent, or the Geor-
gia Children's Home Society, Foote

Merchandise transactions between

of the department of commerce for
the six months ending December,

period of 1912. Secretary Redfield

Is continued during the remainder
Of the fiscal year the balance in favor
of America would far exceed any
thing hitherto known.
The report set forth that the new
tariff has not thus far resulted in
any material increase of importations
of manufactured articles to compete
with the products of our own facto-
ries, but rather that this important
effect has been to add to our food
supply in such a way as either to pre-
vent additions to prices already high
or else reduce them

BODY OF YOUNG WOMAN FOUND
Was Dragged From the ChattahOo-
chez River Near Columbus.

The body of an unknown young
white woman, apparently about
seventeen years old, was found on
Wednesday afternoon in the Chatta-
hoochee river, two miles south of
Columbus, on the Alabama side of
the stream.
The discovery was made by w. ID.
Willis, plantation overseer, who no.
ticed the body in some driftwood
near the shore. The features were
badly swollen and unacceptable.
The woman's body was attired in
a rather plain dress and wore a pair
of new shoes. Two rings were on
one of her left fingers. There was
nothing to establish her identity. The
Muscogee county coroner went to the
scene
No young woman of this age is
reported missing in Columbus, and
the body may have found its way in
to the river at some point north of
this city.

SHACKLEFORD BILL PASSES HOUSE
Would Distribute 5000, 900 for
Good Roads to Be Apportioned
Among Various States.

WASHINGTON.-The ShacklefOrd
bill, under which the federal govern
ment would distribute $50, 100000
for good roads among the various
states, conditioned among a dollar
for-dollar appropriation by each
state, was passed by the house today
by a vote of 282 to AZ and awaits
action by the senate. It's passage fol-
lowed several days of debate, during
which most of the hundred or more
speakers advocated the project in the
interest of the farmers, while mi
nority attacked the project as dan
gerous opening wedge for heavy fu-
ture inroads on the treasury.
Democratic Leader Underwood,
Republican Leader Mann and Rep
resentative Hinebaugh of Illinois, the
ranking progressive in the city, Oil
voted for the measure. Representa-
tive Mann declared that the cities
could well afford out of their wealth
to contribute taxes to aid the coun-
try in their construction of roads and
other improvements.
Many of those who voted against
the bill explained that their opposi-
ton was not to federal aid in con-
structing the highways, but to the
method proposed in the pending
