Library floor to be replaced before Carnegie opening

A committee on buildings and grounds chaired by J.R. Nutting ruled that the new Carnegie Library floor laid by American Lumber Company must be changed to a satisfactory condition or be rejected. The dispute centers on flooring supplied by American Lumber Company and installed under Miles and Bradt subcontractors, with potential suit by Walter Brown for the material. Trustees meeting today will decide, but party sources expect the library to open around February 1 with no further delay.

Friendship Across Parties in Senate Highlighted

A Washing Letter to the Philadelphia Press notes that friendships in the Senate cross party lines with strong ties between opposite sides. Georgia Democrat Senator Bacon maintains warm Republican relations, while Republican Leader Allrich stays close to older Democrats. Vermont Republican Proctor is bonded with Southern Democrat Mallory, a former Confederate Army and Navy member. Mallory’s Civil War service contrasts Proctor’s Union staff role, yet personal ties persist beyond past divides. An arrest at Dalton fined $200 for selling specimens under A. K. Hawke’s name serves as a caution against impostors. The notice also promotes the Central of Georgia’s Chicago and Florida Limited train with vestibuled cars, daily Atlanta departure and port of call details.
