simmee = costs thirty-fve. To go a
little further: A ton OF fertilizer
shipped from Jacksonville to Tampa
thru kissimmee for $3.50; fr ON
Jacksonville TO Kiss;mmee s220 It
is very plain therefore, that kissim-
NEE pays upon grain from Jackson
Vile nine cents more per sack than
Tampa pays; fourteen cents per bar
rel more on flour than Tampa pays;
sixty cents more for fertilizer than
Tampa pays. Thus the interior mer-
chant is charged much greater rate
than the Tampa merchant If anyone
comes out of the merchants pocket.
he is very much mistaken, as it is
properly added to the actual cost, so
IN the long run the excessive charge
comes out Of the consumer, and the
only way to avoid that is to have our
railroad companies stand by the law
passed by the last session OF the leg
islature, that is, prohibiting the
charging of more for short haul
than for long haul, and to per-
suade them that it is wise and prop
er to exercise the rights conferred by
this law upon them, to waive these
rates in certain specified cases.
The railroad commissioners are ito
meet here on March %. 1t is earnest
" desired that all our people, wheth-
er dealers or consumers, shalt be
present to give moral support to the
argument that may be submitted, Ito
the end that our community and our
town, may receive just and fair
consideration at the hands of the Sc
commissioners, and that our com
munity may not be destroyed by the
railroads in order that it may build
up the water competitors point
It seems to be a vary unwise pol
icy for the railroads to desire to do
this, because all inland points pay
the railroads freight on all articles
that enter or go out-while at the
water competitors points they re-
ceive pay only on portion of the
shipments.

LAWRENCE f.. DOZIER

Orlando Sentinel: The death Of
Lawrence r. Dozier at Baltimore
yesterday removes a citizen whose
recent energies in a public manner
have attracted the attention of the
entire state. Mr. DoZier had been
known locally for years as a man of
great personal force and ability and
his service as mayor OF Leesburg for
eight successive terms bore evidence
OF the esteem in which he was held
by his neighbors. 1t was in his work
for the Oklawaha river Improvement
that he had begun to active state
wide notice. 1t was most incident
al to his own objects and intentions
that his fame came to him, but per-
sons who knew of his great interests
and untiring zeal in this enterprise
gladly gave him the credit for bring
ing the possibilities of this develop
ment so wildly to the attention of
engineers that they recommended it
fayorably and for the largest appro-
priation ever considered for an in
land waterway Improvement in Flor
ida. 1t seems peculiarly deplorable
that he should have been called away
just as he was upon the eve of see
ing his work crowned with success.

The Long and Short Haul

Within the past few years this
country has been aroused as never
before to the soundness of the good
old doctrine OF Equal rights to all;
special privileges to none. This
revival Of appreciation of such sound
doctrine has led to the enactment of
new tariff, because it was found
that any industry built without a
proper foundation, that is to say, es
tablished as a special privilege, was
The public conscience has been
aroused to the fact that each indus
try ought to stand on it's own foun-
dation, and any place, or industry,
or individual built up by artificial
means was not reaching the highest
development OF which they were
capable, and that if artificial means
| were necessary to maintain such
that ii should be withdrawn.
The same idea to our mind holds
| true as to place. industry and indi-
viduals being built up. maintained
or destroyed by railroad companies.
We do not feel that one community
or one individual should be taxed by
the railroad traffic to support an
| other community or another indi-
vidual or another industry.

OBITUARY

Breathes there man with soul SO
dead
Who never to himself has said:
My trade of late is getting bad,
I'll try another S-inch ad''
If such there be, go, mark him we'll;
For him no bank account shall swell
No angels watch the golden stair
To welcome home the millionaire.
The man who never asks for trade
By local line or ad displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly
gain,
And patronage but gives him pain.
Tread lightly, friends, let no rude
Sound disturb his solitude profound.
Here let him live in calm repose,
Unsought except by men he owes.
And when he dies, go plant him
deep.
That naught may break his dream
less sleep;
Where no rude clamor may dispel
The quiet that he loves so well.
And when the world may know its
loss
Place on his grave wreath of moss
And on a stone above. Here lies
A chump who wouldn't advertise

Al ALBANIA JOINS GEORGIA
IN HELP FOR STARVING;
FUND IS GROWING FAST

Sunday, write out check and mail 1t
ut once. Letters should be addressed
TO The Bulgarian Relief Fund. The
Georgian, Atlanta. and the checks
made payable to The Georgian.
Delays Are Dangerous.
The help that Atlanta and the
South gives should be given at once.
The need is immediate. Delay in
making contributions means that
much longer the suffering must con-
tinue, or that death viii overtake the
sufferers before aid reaches them.
The war victims already are dying
in droves. William Leveson Cover, a
member of the family of the Duke of
Sutherland, who has just returned to
London from a trip through Albania
and Bulgaria, has this to say of con-
ditions:
The plight Of the refugees in
SCutari is peculiarly distressing. Not
only have their homes been burnt by
invaders. but they are also victims of
tribal troubles Refugees have con-
Gregated in immense numbers at FL
bassan and Tirana, where they are
lodged chiefly in disused barrack
buildings, which. in many cases, are
without roofs. windows or doors and
are most unsuited for the rigors of
the fierce winter.
Lack Food and Shelter.
Many came hitner from Dibra, the
center of the recent Albanian rising,
and arrived in a most pitiable condi-
ton. Judge Of their state now, after
several weeks stay in a place where
neither food nor shelter is available
for them!
Money is urgently needed, first to
save the refugees from perishing from
cold and starvation, and second to re-
build their homes. Local relief re-
sources are practically negligible"
Famine has stalked among the de-
PRAYED and uncivilized for centuries,
brought about by various causes. But
in this instance it Is an enlightened
people, who have led the battle for
humane principles. who are dying.
Persons who have seen something of
the misery in the stricken districts
declare that the situation Is without
parallel in the annals of civilized
nation.
Babies and Mothers Dying.
The crisis has arrived Babies and
their mothers are dying for lack OF
| food The situation is not fully real
ICED in the United States. else every
| purse string would be loosed for the
| relief of the sufferers.
| Authorities who doubted and made
| personal trips of inspection have been
| Mortified by their discoveries Women
become mothers upon the hillsides,
absolutely without shelter. Hundreds
| in a community subsist upon daily
allowances of bread and water.
Others who are less Fortunate do
not always get that much and they
are starving by the hundreds every
day. Others, without shelter or
| clothes, are freezing. Thus death
| hedges the refugees on all sides. The
price of bread has reached the pro-
! hibitive price OF 35 cents.

"They are all pleased when they
find what excellent work we really are
doing: and they're more pleased when
thew find that the free enlargement of
pictures the owners prize above all
others is simply a gift from The
American and The Georgian.
"Theres one little point I'd like TO
clear I'D. Nfanv Of our visitors think
that when our offer reads six CON
SECUTTVE coupons are necessary TO
obtain the enlargement of a por-
trait that that means the coupons
must be clipped from papers issued
one day right after the other.
THAT is not true All we require Is
that the coupons be from papers OF
different dates-that is, that no cou-
pons of the six shall be clipped from
The Georgian or American of the
same date.

FIELDER WARS ON
SULPHUR FUMES
Attorney General Of Georgia Plans
Proceedings Against Ducktown
Copper Company,

WASHINGTON, Feb 3.-Unless
the Ducktown Copper and Sulphur
Company, located at Ducktown.
Tenn, near the Georgia line, at once
makes some provision to eliminate
sulphur fumt~ and smoke, which are
very destructive to the farmers of
Georgia, T S. Fielder, Attorney Gen
eral of Georgia, who is in Washington
to-day, will probably institute custer
proceedings against the corporation.
General Fielder a year ago secured
a compromise decree from the United
States Supreme Court recognizing
the agreement which he had made
with the Tennessee Copper Company
for II to install machinery to extin-
guish smoke and fumes, and this
agreement is being complied with, he
SAYS. General Fielder will first en-
deavor to secure a similar one as to
the Ducktown Copper and Sulphur
Company before taking action of a
drastic nature.

Her Husband Prefers French, So
He Goes to Europe and She
Asks Divorce.

Nine. Jean Maubourg, who sang in
grand opera in Atlanta last year and
who is due to sing here again in I'll
Trovatore" this year, has bumped on
the rocks in the shoreless sea of
matrimony. The trouble comes about
because the songbird prefers Ameri-
cans to any other people and her
husband, Claude Bede, has fondness
for the French.
Because they could not agree on
this point the spirited singer has
sued for separation, and, just for
that, the equally spirited husband
has started back to that dear France.
BY way of showing that he didn't
care, Bede did not even defend the
action. And on top of that the day
he sailed he called out to his wife,
