Around the stake a village grew, taking its
name from Cuyer's legend Terminus 1t is
recorded by the most unmistakable of authori-
ties that there was nothing but an uninhabited
forest about Cuylers stake in 1910, and that
in 1Sf3 there little more. This is from
the diary of Alexander II. Stephens, written
in his Northern prison after the War Between
the States. when he was the captive Vice
President of the Confederacy. 1t is interesting
to note his recollection of Terminus when
he marvels how rapidly the town grew before
the war began. His diary records
This day examined Colton's New Atlas
he gives Atlanta's population thus: 1910, 1000;
1860 4,416. Now, in 1910, do know that there
was not soul in Atlanta-Termiuus, it will
be remembered, afterward became Atlanta
the place was not settled. I stood on its pres
cnt site on July 81, 1S43, and there was not
habited house there. 1t was a perfect forest.
Some excavations for the railroad had been
made, store or ginhouse put up, and
frame for a dwelling was in process OF cree
ton but not family was living there"
But it was not long after 1S4S that the town
began to grow. 1t is likely that less than a
month after Alexander Stephens the first
store and the framework of the first dwelling
the town already was fourishing like a mush-
room, for nothing could be calculated to
cause a town to develop as its existence at the
conjunction of railroad lines from Chattanooga.
Augusta and Savannah. So rapidly did the
town grow, in fact, that it soon shed the coldly
commercial tone of the name Terminus, and
adopted that of Marthasville, which has, you
must admit, a more homely. habitable sound.
There must have been homes and gardens
springing up around Cuylers stake when they
dubbed the town Marthasville
But even that began to sound provincial to
the inhabitants, and in 1S4S they changed the
name for good and all to Atlanta, obtained a
charter Of municipal Incorporation. elected
Moses W. Formwalt Mayor, and set in to build
a city that would survive the tremendous bat
tie sixteen years later and grow to become
one of the greatest in the South outstripping
to a point transcending comparison its erst-
while rivas-Savannah, Augusta and Macon.
And this is the story of Atantas creation,
as the Telemon Cuyler of the present genera
tion told it. 1t is the story Of city begun
not as other cities are begun, according to the
whim or pleasure or state of exhaustion OF
prospecting settlers, but out of the fateful ext

Getting Rid Of the Hobo.

The police of Fort Wayne, Ind, =,
have hit upon y pretty good scheme
to rid their city of hoboes. Recently
a squad Of five patrolmen in that city
arrested bunch Of twenty-five va
grants who had camped on the out
skirts of the city, marked each man
by clipping furrow through his hair
with a pair of horse clippers, ordered
them out of town, and as they ran
"paddled'' each with barrel stave.
The vagrants were told if they were
captured before the clipped hair grew
out they would be sent to the stone
pile for 100 days. The yagrants lost
but little time in leaving Fort Wayne
far to the rear. Down at Glasgow
the police have instructions to arrest
every hobo OH sight and put them to
work ON the streets, and it is said this
is having a good effect, as very few
OF this class are coming to the county
seat now. Malta should find some
way of keeping the buns out of here
as we'll as the other towns and cities
are dong.

Chinook s, Malta 3.

The ball game at Chinook Sunday
between the team Of that place and
the team from here was one of the
best games Of the season and very
few errors were made by either team.
Our battery worked fine together and
could deliver the goods any time they
We're called on. III the fourth inning
Malta made the first score of the
game, and held it up to the sixth,
when Chinook made one run. The
game belonged to Malta all the time
ana our team would have got away
with it it the umpire had given us
anything like an even break. We
were Informed OH the train while
while going to Chinook that there
was no chance to get away with the
game as the umpire would steal it
II 1t could not he won any other way.
and he sure did. For pure and un-
adulterated rotten decisions he is the
winner, and in rendering a decision
when Chinook man was out by
yard he would spread himself like
buzzard about to light Oh carrion and
baWl out "safe.''
In the seventh inning lie became SO
rank that the Chinook people as we'll
as those from here entered protest
on one decision, which lie reversed,
ana it was the only fair decision we
got that day. Pitcher Tietz could
throw strikes until his arm came off
and unless they were struck at they
were balls. The Chinook team is
co Imposed of fellows who want a de-
cent game and we think they are boys

and the horses then stand idle and

Select your crops and plan your

Such system will also help solve the

LET COLORADO MINE ITS OWN COAL

ways been friendly to union labor.
And right here let it be said that
union labor is seldom truly repre-
sented by its leaders.
When boy outgrows the guild
ance and advice of parents, and
thereby becomes bully, the state
never hesitates to lay a restraining
hand upon the shoulder of the
youth and makes it plain that his
liberty extends only to the boun-
daries of other mems rights. With
out this safety device, society would
be at the mercy of brutality.
To handle big business the cor.
poration was evolved, and to keep
measured tread Herewith came the
labor union. Each has come to
look upon the other as its natural
enemy instead Of co-worker.
The proposed operation of the
states coal lands by the state
seems to offer the best solution of
the coal mining trouble. But in
this step it will require high patri-
otism 10 avoid worse condition
than exists at present.
