THE BATTLE OF ATLANTA

On the morning of the goth of July,
1868, the main body of the Union
Army had crossed to the south side
of Peach Tree Creek, within three
miles of Atlanta. The Confederates
were within the strong entertainments
with which for more than a year,
they had been surrounding that i'm
portant place. On the morning of the
21st of July, finding themselves close
ly pressed, the Confederate soldiers
abandoned their outer line of earth
works, and tok possession of the in
ner line of redoubts, strongly con
structed. The legions of Sherman
swept into the defences abandoned
and closed around the doomed city.
A heavy. battle was fought on the
morning of the 81, and IN the %. Gen.
Mcpherson was on both sides of the
railroad from Decatur; Gen. Logan
was ON the right. The southeTners
emerged, heavily massed and plunged
into conflict with the union troops.
The battle waged from early morning
until late in the afternoon, when the
Southerners defeated and suffering
heavy losses, retreated. Tt was in this
battle Gen. Mcpherson was killed.

and in His name commit barbarities
that would shame the King of perdi-
tion-forgetting that intelligent people
know if God desired to resort to
force He could make us all good BY
the exercise of His will.
If he should ~forcefully stop every
thing which at some time leads t. q
crime, or even to murder where would
it end? The first fight | ever saw in
my life was at a church, because Of
some plain talk from the pulpit by my
father. An erring brother objected to
having his errors pointed out even
though no anne were called, and de-
cided to settle his grievance in truly
barbarian style. Perhaps he thought
the Lord was directing him. But when
he went up against that preacher he
soon found he had read his direc-
tons wrong and had no time to get
a new edition. He and his friends
wanted to tear down the church for
the alleged reason a hereto had
preached in it, but perhaps the real
reason was that he had been licked.
Therais just as much reason in that
mans attitude as there is in wanting
to destroy every place of amusement
al which murder is at some time com.
mitted. Returning to the question
asked at the beginning of this para
graph where would the destruction
end? Murder is committed at times
in church. Shall we for that reason
destroy the churches? Frequently the
home circle is the scene of a murder.
Shall we for that reason destroy the
homes? Flying machines, automO
biles,, railway trains, steamboats,, and
every other agency of the human
family at times becomes the direct
instrumentality of most horrible
death. Shall we abolish them all? If
not, then why should any one be
destroyed for that reason?
Real regulation is the shrine at
which all can confidently worship.

1t is expected that the postmaster

ELECTRA

Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
On last Wednesday the sad news
reached us of the death of Mrs. w.
p. Pillans, who died in Orlando at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Dixie Ev-
ans. The remains were brought to
Electra on Thursday, the 18th for
burial, beside her husband, Captain
Pillans, who was laid to rest in the
Electra cemetery nineteen years ago.
Captain Pillans was n of our most
honored citizens, and Mrs. Pillans
was the best loved woman in all this
community. None knew her but to
love her. After removing to Orlando
she made frequent visits here to see
her son, Mr.. j. G. Pillans, and her
many friends were always delighted
to see her on these occasions, and
they sincerely mourn her death, and
extend deepest sympathy to the be-
reaved family. Mrs. Pillans was 80
years of age.
Besides her many friends, Mrs. Pill
1ans left two sons, Mr.. J. G. Pillans of
Electra and Mr.. w. P. Pillans of Lake
land, and two daughters, Mrs. Dixie
Evans of Orlando. and Mrs. Halle
Anderson of Lakeland, and a number
of grandchildren and great grandchil-
dren to mourn her departure.
Her children were all here to wit
ness the last sad rites of their below
ed mother. Mr.. VIM. Martin of Moss
Bluff conducted the funeral services,
and loving friends, who could do no
more, covered the graves of Capt.
and Mrs. Pillans with beautiful flow
ers.
Miss Pearl Forbes of Anthony and
Miss Edith Anderson of Lakeland are
visiting Miss Dixie Pillans.
Miss Tincy Holly, Miss Clifton and
Mr.. Rob Fort of Ocala were out JOY
riding, and made a short visit to our
burg Saturday afternoon.
Mr.. J.. D. Young was over looking
after his muck land property last
week.
MI. Bob Rogers and family of
Lynne passed through Electra Thurs
day on their way to Lake Weir, to
enjoy the balmy breezes and bathing
in the beautiful lake for a few weeks.
MI. John Rogers of Lynne was also
in our burg last week, and the kind
service he performed whit his auto
will not soon be forgotten.
We are pleased to note that Mr.,
Josh Martin and Mr.. Robert McKim,
who have recently been on the sick
list, are now able to eat all the food
that is placed before them.
Mr.. G. w. Brant, Sr., and wife are
on a pleasure trip to Lake George.
Miss Maggie Sellers of Stuart is
visiting her grandmother, Mrs. Geor
gia Sellers.

exceptional features as to topography,
character of road materials, methods
of construction and maintenance, ad-
ministrative organization, methods OF
road financing, and traffic conditions.
From these lists 100 counties will be
selected, and in these counties the
division of road economics will make
intensive studies.
This investigation is prompted by
the fact that there is at present very
little knowledge as to the most eff
fective and economical methods by
which county can develop its roads.
AT present the methods of financing
local road improvements vary from
calling on farmers for a certain num-
Der of days labor in lieu of road tax,
or the use of county prisoners in road
construction, to bond issues or main
tenance of roads from dramshop
license funds.
The department will study all of
these systems with the view to deter
mining what system or combination of
systems works best in actual prac-
tise.
There Is, moreover, at present no
standard system of keeping accounts
for road building and maintenance,
and as result, while some counties
know to penny the purpose for
which money was spent, others have
no definite check or reporting system
Among various counties with the same
conditions cost for excavation or other
labor Is anything but uniform, and
many counties, because of the alb
sence of definite knowledge. fail to
use local and cheap materials, and
construct roads which are unnecessar-
lily expensive for their purpose, or
which will wear out before the bond
issues are redeemed. The investiga.
ton will include careful study Of
the use of convict labor In road con-
struction.
In connection with the scientific
study the departments highway en-
gineers will advise freely with local
officials as to improvements. and thus
give each county visited the advantage
or direct cooperation, engineering su-
pervision, and assistance.
These Investigations. 1t is believed,
will yield important economic data
bearing especially on the benefits and
burdens OF road improvement and
showing the extent to which financial
outlay under given typical conditions
| is justifiable.
The heads Of state highway depart.
ments are manifesting great interest
and are cooperating cordially in this
work, These data when obtained will
be published and thus made accessible
TO all county and state road officials.
