 Some disappointed politician de- clares that the next house of the Connecticut assembly will be an ann ateur body as only thirteen of the members are reelected. Perhaps that may result in less delay and quick CT adjournment than would be possi-
 ble otherwise.--Meriden Journal
 Some few candidates at the state election failed to turn in reports of their expenses as required by law. Now they stand an excellent chance
 of prosecution at the hands of the au- thorities for their delinquency. Stiff
 fines should prove an effectual cure for that sort of absent mindedness.-

It is planned that the visitors shall
have the entire time of Monday and

declared that the bill at the popular
Forsyth next week will be by far the
best of the season. Every merchant
who is visiting here during the week
will be the guest of the association at
the show.
No entertainment, with the eXcep-
ton of the private parties that will be
entertained by dealers, is planned for

The big event of the week will come
Friday evening when a reception and

by the association that would tend to
make the banquet a success. A band
of sixteen pieces-the famous Fifth

and will furnish music for two hours
from $50 O'clock to $50. Prior to

Virtually every manufacturer and
merchant in the city is enlisted in

L. G. L. Manufacturing Company
Forced TO Enlarge Factory Three

That goods Of every description
manufactured in Atlanta have found
a ready market during the past year
has been demonstrated beyond the
question of doubt by the fact that
the l.. & l.. Manufacturing Company,
makers of ladies' and children's ready
to-wear garments, No. 136 Marietta
street, have been forced to enlarge
their manufacturing department
three times during the past ten
months.
They are now putting in sufficient
additional machinery to increase the
output so per cent over the past fall,
and expect to again increase their ia
cilities before the spring season Is
over.

ther time nor money will be spared
IN the attempt to make the week one
or the greatest gatherings of mer-
chants and manufacturers ever held
in the South. 1t is purely for the
purpose of fostering and encourage
ing trade relations between Atlanta
wholesalers and manufacturers and
the merchants of this territory, and
the visitors will be shown concrete
evidence of Atlantas commercial i'm
portance as well as being shown
good time. Wholesalers and local
manufacturers are anticipating
week of the biggest business in their
history.
Two evenings of theIweek will be
devoted to the entertaining of the
merchants in a body, with a theater
party and monster banquet. In ad-
dition to the general entertainment
plans, many Wholesale houses and
manufacturing plants have formulat-
ed plans to entertain large parties of
their customers with dinners, auto
bile tours to places of interest about
the city, and other features that will
send the visiting merchant away with
pleasant memories of the premier
city of the South. The Forsyth Thea
ter has been engaged for the Tues
day night performance, and no one
will be admitted but the visiting
merchants and their families, and on
Friday night the week will be brought
to close with a monster banquet at
the Auditorium, which promises to be
one of the greatest feasts ever spread
in Atlanta.
