REAL
GEORGIA HISTORY
Capt. John A. Cobb Says 1t Is
Needed For Public Schools
Urges Clubs To Act

As the main speaker at the Lions
Club luncheon Tuesday evening at
the Tea Room, Captain j. A. Cobb,
ordinary of Sumter county, called at
tention to the urgent need of collect
ing and compiling historical data of
Sumter county. In the course Of his
remarks Captain Cobb spoke of the
need of an adequate history of the
state of Georgia for use in our pub
lie schools. He said that no greater
or more important undertaking could
command the attention Of the civic
clubs of the state than that of stimu-
lating interest in this vital question.
Captain Cobb's talk was greatly en-
joyed and proved both instructive and
entertaining.
Chief John T. Bragg was guest
of the club with Dink Frazier and
his fiddle. The fiddling and straw
beating made hit with the members
and guests of the club.
A resolution of congratulation on
the approaching marriage during the
holidays Of Cub r. P. Snow, was read
by LAG" Ame5 and was enthusiastic
ally adopted by unanimous vote.
Miss Melva Clark sang and proved
as always a general favorite. Mrs.
w. II. G. Dudley was her accompanist.
Captain Cobb asid;
Gentlemen; You have requested
me to give you a history of Sumter
County for the past SO years, This
brings up the question of history,
which goes with our interest, beyond
the limits of Sumter county.
"Therc is nothing more important
TO all of us than the proper educa sion
of our children, who will soon be the
directors Of the affairs of this state
and should know the history, not only
of their city and county, but of the
whole state. There is not available
a proper history of Georgia, for our
schools This is a sad condition. You
and your sister organizations, that
are working for the improvement and
uplift of our people, should see to it
that proper history to be used in
our schools should be written.
Georgia is a great state, and her
citizens have been wonderfully
blessed, for there is no state, in this
great Union Of States TO compare to
her, her climate, minerals, health
giving waters, the varied products of
her soil, embracing everything for
the health, support and comfort of
man or beast. A Chinese wall could
be built around her and cut her off
from the balance Of the world and
she could produce everything needed
of food, raiment, materials for manu-
featuring everything needed, and
adorning her women with the finest
raiments and the richest jewels and
precious stones.
Georgia was the pioneer, in her
early days, for the advanced educa-
tion of her people. When the Oc
mulgee river was the boundary be-
tween the Indians and whites, she
gave more for public education in
proportion to her population and her
wealth than she does now.
"The history Of this county has
been in large part, made by the
great men born and reared in her
borders. Far be it from me to take

MAN SHOT AT UPS0N
DIES IN HOSPITAL
LOise Bailey, Shot by Revolver in the
Hands of Peter Radakovich
Succumbs to Wounds.

Loise Bailey, the victim of the
shooting scrape at Upson last week
Thursday evening, passed away at
the General hospital in Ashland
Sunday night. Bailey was shot
twice with a revolver i'll the hands
of an Epson saloonkeeper, Peter
Radakovich, during a brawl. One
bullet struck Bailey i'll the back
and another lodged in his head
He was taken to Mellen and given
medical treatment and then rushed
to the Ashland hospital. An
autopsy in an Ashland undertaking
parlors showed that Bailey's death
was the result of a bullet in the
brain. His body was shipped to
Iron River for burial. He was p
years old.
Radakovich, who was released on
bail of $500 following his arraign-
ment i'll municipal court last week
Friday on a charge of assault with
intent to murder, reported to the
county authorities upon learning
of Bailey's death and has been
formally charged with manslaught-
er. His bail was fixed at 81, 900,
which was furnished. He will
have his hearing April 7, when the
details of the affair will be brought
out. 1t is said that Radakovich
claims that the shooting of Bailey
was an accident, although it has
been established that the saloon
keeper held the revolver with which
Bailey was shot, three shots being
fired. Many are of the opinion
that the shootingfollowed drunken
brawl in which moonshine played
an important part. 1t is said that
Bailey and his two companions be-
came troublesome early in the even
ing and passed remarks that they
were going to "clean up" the town.
AT any rate there seems to have
been general mixup in Radako-
vick's saloon late in the evening
and the shooting followed.

Ore Movement May Be Light.

With independents working along
restricted lines, with reduced pay
to employees and shorter hours,
mining men are at a loss to figure
out how matters are going to shape
up for the coming ore shipping sea-
son, says an exchange.
Operations on the Minnesota
ranges are said to be the lightest
they have been in several years,
but many of the mining men are
optimistic. They contend that
many OF the limitations now retard
ing industrial operations will be
Strengthened out in the next few
weeks, and that a substantial re-
vival will occur when perhaps it is
least expected
In the opinion of some mining
men, the next shipping season may
open late, due largely to unsettled
ore traffic rates on rail and water.
Unless these matters are adjusted
satisfactorily it is expected that the
season will open with light move
ment of ore.
