Lam, distinguished Chinese scholar,
is here today awaiting the departure
OF the steamer which will carry him
to China, where he will offer his fell
low countrymen an alphabet which If

Lam has created an alphabet of fifty
six characters.
In addition to the new alphabet. DR..
Lam has devised a telegraphic code of

His system, he said. had been proved
practical in test given in the Chinese

He was led to devise the alphabet,
he said. because China's present writ
ten language was so cumbersome that
* proved a handicap in a fast moving

REPUBLICANS TO
MEET IN MACON
STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE is
CALLED TO MEET THERE ON
TENTH OF MARCH.

The Republican state central COM
mittee of Georgia will meet in Macon
at the city auditorium on March 10
at noon.
The official call for this meeting
has just been issued by Chairman
Walter Johnson, of Atlanta. Mr.
Johnson picked out Macon as the
place for the meeting because of its
central location and its accessibility.
Chairman Johnson paid no attentions
whatever to the request made recent
ly by certain alleged members of the
state central committee that the con-
yention be held in Atlanta.
1t is understood that Henry S. Jack
son, of Atlanta, paid the expenses OF
some seventeen men to Atlanta re-
Gently and that in order to bolster up
the wavering fortunes of his wing OF
| the party secured the passage of a
resolution which practically ordered
Chairman Johnson to call the meeting
in Atlanta.
1t is understood further that some
of the parties who signed the resoiu-
ton were not even members of the
state central committee, although they
were led to believe that they were.
This action was resented by Chair
man Johnson, and he ignored the re-
quest absolutely ON the ground that
the meeting in Atlanta was not an ex'
preston of the wishes OF the COM
mittee. but only OF the JackSon-Pick-
EFT faction.
The Jackson Pickett faction has been
in the minority for some time and has
practically pledged the support of the
Georgia delegation to the national
convention to Roosevelt.

ENGLAND GETTING READY.

Editor of the Journal-Official re-
ports have just reached the United
States showing the results of the
first years work Of the British OH
cial Committee organized by the
government for the purpose of in
creasing the industrial power OF
Great Britain so as to adequately
meet competitive conditions after the
war
The reports show a stupendous
advance in the system of co-ordina-
ton of science with practical work.
The industries covered especially
embrace chemistry, pottery, glass
making, electricity and engineering
There is the utmost confidence that
as England has finally-after two
years work out-organized Germany
in the matter of munitions of war
so she will be able to successfully
meet German competition after the
war, especially as she has abandoned
the doctrine of free trade. Then
with an open market in her enor'
nous empire and special privileges
in the countries of her present al
lies, England will be in position t
strike for the American market un'
less she is met with substantial
protective tariff. All informed stu
dents of the subject agree that aftel
the war the struggle for the Ameri'
can trade will be fiercely contendet
for by European manufacturers.
Yours truly

the Common Pleas bench OF this

his official work is of the highest
