HIGHWAYMEN TOOK VICTIMS
PISTOL AND LEFT HIS MONEY
4 Bold Crime Is Perpetrated i'm Ram
dOlph County in Midday.

Monday about 1890 p. m, while
driving along the road in the neigh
borhood of Pumpkin creek, Mr.. w.
A. Gardner was ordered with an oath
to hold up his hands, upon peril
of his life. Stopping his horse i'm
mediately he turned and saw two ne
groes, supposedly the two conVicts,
Ike Hudson and Crawford Binion,
who escaped from the convict camp
week before last, about thirty feet
away with two rifles, or one rifle and
a shotgun, pointed at him. They APP
preached, making him hold up his
hands, and told him they neither
wanted to harm him or to take any
of his money; all they wanted was
his pistol One of them, dropping his
gun, pulled out his pistol and search
ed Mr.. Gardeners pockets for his pis-
toll and cartridges. He had a nice
sum of money, which they felt Of,
but did not take, contenting them
selves with appropriating his new
ten-shot automatic pistol, cursing him
and haunting him about it.
He drove directly into town, after
being ordered to move on, and re-
ported the matter to the authorities.

FERTILIZER PRICES
PROBABLY Be HIGH
MAKERS SEE THE PROSPECT OF
HEAVY BUSINESS, AND INDUS
TRY WILL BE TAXED.
POTASH IS NOW AT PREMIUM
Every Item of Expense That Enters
Into the Finished Fertilizer Has
Been Largely Increased, and Farm
er Must Pay Accordingly.

SAVANNAH, Ga.-There is a
good big year in prospect for the fer
tiIizer manufacturers and mixers, ac-
cording to prediction made here, and
the belief now seems to be that they
Will sell everything they can make
in spite of high prices.
Indications are that fertilizer
prices will be higher the coming sea-
son than in many a year, fact to
which several causes are contribu-
ing. The absence of potash supplies,
since German shipments have been
cut off on account of the European
war, has created the necessity for de-
vising some other forms of fertilizers
with as much potash as possible,
There will be no fertilizer, however,
with any large amount of potash in
it; in fact, the percentage will be eX-
traordinarily small.
Potash From the Soil.
Inquiries as to what effect this may
have on crops has brought forth lit
tie more information than that one
shall have to wait and see. They
may do well on other fertilizers, and,
under favorable conditions, gather
such potash as they need from the
soil itself.
Another thing that has contributed
to the high price of fertilizers is the
short cotton crop and consequently
the scarcity of cotton seed meal. Cot
ton seed are now selling around sac
ton, and the meal, after the removal
OF the oil and hulls, is bringing 500
per ton or more right along. Thls
IS an increase of nearly $40 a ton IN
the past six or eight weeks. There Is
considerable meal held in the hands
OF spectators, but it is stated that
the fertilizer manufacturers have Sc
cured about all they need.
Prices Are Soaring.
Then acid phosphate has jumped
up from IS ton at interior points TO
SIP. This is attributed partly at least
to the extraordinary demand for sui
phuric acid on the part of the mand-
Iacturers of explosives, so that com
paratively little of it was obtainaole
Ter fertilizer purposes.
Other materials, such as drleu
blood, tankage and the like, have ad-
Fanced accordingly, and these have

Anti-Suffrage Majority Heavy.
President Wilson's recent declara-
ton that he would vote for woman
suffrage failed to bring victory for
the amendment. In his own voting
precinct in Princeton the vote was
more than two to one against the
amendment.
Returns show that in 1922 out OF
1891 districts the vote was 1925
for the amendment and 124,119
against it, majority of 1854
against suffrage.
Lost i'm Every Big City.
Suffrage lost in every big city and
in nearly every town. Where it did
win the majority was small. Newark

Jersey City, with seven districts
missing, gave II, 1856 votes for the
amendment and 1885 against it.
Trenton, with seven districts, gave a
majority of 2,51S against it.

.PROHI BILLS TO PASS
WITHOUT OPPOSITION
THE FACT Is NOW ACCEPTED BY
EVERYONE FAMILIAR WITH
THE SITUATION.
CLAIM NEW LAW WILL PROHIBIT

Some of Opposition Members State
They Will Interpose No Further
Obstacle. Session to Last Not
More Than -Four Weeks.
ATLANTA.-Th prohibition bills
will pass the Legislature at the forth
coming extra session with practically
no opposition.
This fact, which has been growing
more and more apparent for weeks,
is now accepted without dispute by
everyone at the capitol and by mem
bers of the Legislature coming in and
out of the city.
The prediction is made by well in
formed observers that the extra ses-
sion will probably not last more than
four weeks at the outside, and this
prediction is based on the general
belief that there will be little, if any,
attempt to block the passage of the
prohibition bills.
No Further Obstacle.
MGluDGlS VI inc HOuSG anu SSHotC
who opposed the prohibition bills
during the session last summer are
now frankly stating that they will
interpose no further obstacle to their
passage.
AS an instance of what is plainly
the general feeling among the men,
bers who were not in favor of the
prohibition bills during the session
last summer Representative Wohl-
wender, of Muscogee county, one of
the ablest members of the house and
exceedingly popular with all factions
on account of his jovial personality
and sparkling wit, is reported to have
announced that he will introduce and
seriously advocate during the extra
session a bill requiring a license to
have in ones possession more than
one-balf of one pint of whiskey.
Representative n. F. Culpepper, of
Meriwether county, who has been in
Atlanta, made this statement:
No Opposition.
THE opportunity for the friends
of temperance to enact the most eff
fective prohibition laws which they
are capable of writing and to enact
them with practically no opposition
is one that has presented itself in a
very few states in the history of the
prohibition movement.
1T means that Georgia is going to
have prohibition law that prohibits,
law that is effective at every point,
law that can be enforced"

SIMPSON is FOUND
GUILTY OF FRAUD
Former Terrell County Citizen Com
victed of Using Mails for Illegal
Purposes in Atlanta.

ATLANTA.-John J. Simpson,
formerly a member of the Simpson
Harper Lumber Co, was founl gull
ty yesterday on one of the five counts
alleging the use of the mails for
fraudulent purposes. The jury had
been out twenty-four hours, and in
rendering their verdict recommends
mercy.
viii Appeal to Circuit Court.
The court deferred sentence until
Monday, and Simpson was released
on $4,000 bond signed by his brother,
w. A. Simpson. Notice has been Civ
en- of an appeal to the circuit court
One of the six counts upon which
Simpson was originally indicted was
based upon the complaint of five
banks, three of which are Atlanta in
stitutions These banks held nearly
100000 of practically worthless
notes discounted by the lumber firm,
they said, and when the company's
bankruptcy schedules were filed they
showed creditors had lost nearly
$500, geo. About IA per cent was
paid back. The government based it's
case on the charge that Simpson had
sent through the mails to Dun and
Bradstreet false financial statements,
by which the banks were guided in
letting him have discounted money.
Simpson testified that the firm had
failed because of money stringency
due to the Balkan wars.

UAL BESIDE TRAIN WHAT
HE THOUGHT OF HIM.
GOT FACE BADLY DISFI0URED

The South Georgia Cracker AWoke,
Overlook the Train at the Water
Stop, and the Drummer Is Still Re-
penting His Funny Remarks.
COLUMBUS.-A Columbus travel
ling man tells of an unusual and hI-
morous experience on the road down
in South Georgia a few days ago.
A northern salesman had been
working that section and found bus
mess fine. Cotton sales had been
good and the folks had money to buy
his commodity and did buy. So, his
work over and an envelope stuffed
with orders mailed in the postoffice,
he felt in extraordinary spirits when
he boarded the train to go to the next
town.
The train started off and the sales
man stood on the back platform,
smoking a good cigar and surveying
the scenery with great satisfaction.
A rather shiftless looking individual
was leaning against a post near the
track, a hundred yards or so from
the depot The train had gathered
considerable momentum and was go
ing fast when it passed the post.
Expressed Himself.
The salesman was in extraordinary
high spirits and his good humor had
to vent itself some way; and it ex-
pressed itself in this most unusual
manner: When the rapidly moving
train passed the shiftless looking
man the traveller leaned off the plat
form, shook his finger in the others
face and in the course of two or three
hilarious seconds gave him his COM
plete industrial and personal history
in terse, crisp phrases. The travelling
man was smiling, and if the citizen
had but known it his apparently de-
rogatory remarks were really an ex-
preston of oxerfiowing good nature
and satisfaction with the world, but
the sleepy looking man couldn't see
anything in it but malice of the most
astonishing and unexpected kind.
Overlook the Train.
To the travelling mans astonish-
ment the sleepy looking man, galvan-
lied into life, started down the track
at full speed after the train, now go
ing quite fast. 1t was apparently an
unequal race and the man on the
platform was greatly amused al
though admiring the others pluck

been nearly all sold out. While the
advance in these latter products has
not been so great as in others it has
been material, and will have weight
in determining a higher price for the
finished product.
Nitrate of Soda.
Nitrate of soda is generally used
only as a top dressing, but it is eX-
tremeIy valuable for many classes OF
crops. A few months ago it was sell
ing at a fraction above 50 hundred
at Savannah and other Atlantic ports.
Today it is quoted at $2.77, and
promises to go still higher. One OF
the factors in increasing the price OF
this product has been the closing OF
the Panama canal to traffic on &C
count of the land slides in Culebra'
cut. Cargoes of nitrate from Chlle
we're waiting to come through the
canal lust as it was closed. These
must either be sent across the lstn-
mus by rail or sent around the cape
at a greatly increased expense.
So it would appear that almost
