LET COUNTIES ACT
BEFORE GOING TO
GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Senator Howard Has Plan
To Reduce Number of
Local Bills.
Senator J. D. Howard, of the Twentieth
district, Is of the opinion that the Geor
gia general assembly takes up too much
time with purely local legislation, leaving
an Inadequate part of the llfty day sessions
for general legislation.
It Is his Intention to Introduce at the
session of 1908 a bill, which, If passed, will
go far toward putting a atop to choking
the legislative mill with a mass of purely
local matters. Senator Howard proposes to
draft a bill which will require counties to
first vote on purely local matters before

Idea for some years, and It la probable
that a bill of this character will be back

“We fritter away too much time with

purely local nature,” said Senator Howard.

White, widow of the architect whom

rumor firmly believed in the eoclal
circles here. Her late husband's part

lured.
The automobile waa driven by Dr. E.
C. Thrash, and In the machine with
him were Mrs. Thrash, Mrs. Dobbs and
Miss Fay Dobbs. Mrs. Dobbs was
thrown out of the machine by the force
of the collision. She was taken home
In a passing automobile. The negro
woman was taken to Grady Hospital.
Sometime during Saturday
William D. Smith, of 108 Park avenue,
a clerk In the Hub Clothing Company
store In Decatur street, sent a bullet
through his heart, while sitting against
a tree In a secluded part of Grant park.
Sunday morning some ladles saw a
man lying under a tree at the rear of
the woman’s building. They thought
him asleep, and paid no attention to
him. Several hours later they saw him
at the same place, and reported the
matter to Park Policeman C. J. Coog-
ler.
Officer Coogler Investigated and
found Smith cold In death. The body
was lying on the right side with a bul
let hole through tho heart. A 32-caIi-
ler revolver lay near. Scattered about
the body was the fragments of a let
ter, which Smith had evidently torn to
bits before taking his life. It was
pieced together by the coroner and
found to be an order to turn In his
uniform to the military company from
which he had resigned.
Smith left his Park avenue heme
Saturday morning at 8 o’clock. He
lived there with hie mother and slaters.
When he did not return all day Sat
urday they became uneasy about him.
W. T. Terry, 119 Park avenue, saw and
talked With Smith Saturday night about
10 o'clock at Decatur and Pryor
streets. Mr. Terry said Smith was
partly under the Influence of whisky,
and.had just left his place of business.
William D. Smith was 27 years of age
and unmarried. He lived with his
mother, Mrs. N. E. Smith,, and two
sisters. At one time he was a partner
In the haberdashery firm of Harrison
A Smith. Afterwards he was book
keeper for the DeLoach Mill Company,
and recently was with the Hub Cloth
ing Company. The only known cause
for self-destruction Is despondency.
INE

Chair Worker Grew Tired
of Life and Ended
It With Poison.
Belleyed, to be suffering from de
spondency from unknown causes.

Atlanta Chair Company and residing
at No. 7 Coral street, killed himself Sat
urday night by taking a large quantity
of morphine.
Morgan came to Atlanta a mouth
ago from Dalton, and two weeks ago

the evening he appeared very despond
ent, and was heard to say that he was
tired of life He complained of a vlo
lent headache, and left home to go

rletta street. He was accompanied by
Harry McGuIrk, a 14-year-old boy;
cousin of his wife.
Morgan purchased fifty grains
morphine and the McGuIrk boy states
that Morgan began taking It In large
pinches. The' lad remonstrated, but
without effect. When they reached
home, Morgan said to his sister-in-law,
Mrs. Crew:
"I havo taken enough morphine to
fix me.”
She took the box from him and later
It was found to contain twenty-five
grains of the morphine. Mrs. Morgan
summoned Dr. Cox. but relief could not
be given the desperate man and he died
within two hours.

last year’s returns. This, however,
does not represent the true Increase, for

In cotton, while those for 1907 em

CENTRAL BOND BILL
THREATENS TROUBL
IF BROUGHT TO LIFE
Senate Has Plenty of Work
Ahead For Closing
Week.
A busy week Is head of the senate,
but It begins the Anal lap of the ses
slon In much better shape than the
house. • - . *
Aside from the appropriation bill
and the general ta$ acts, both of which
originate In the house.and which were
completed there at the close of last
week, the senate has acted upon near
ly all of the Important reform meas
ures.
The general tax act waa read for
the first time In -the senate Saturday
afternoon, making It possible to have
the bill read for the second time Mon
day, with possible action Anally Tues
day or Wednesday. The appropriation
bill reached the senate Monday, and
that ought to be but of the way by the
middle of the week. ’
If the Born-Overatrbet bill for the
protection of Income bondholders of the
Central railroad is called up for action
this week It Is likely to engender a
hot fight. The action of the Judiciary
committee In taking the bill from the
table, after an agreement, had been
reached, It la said, to leave It on the
table for the session, has aroused the
. greement Broken?
Senator Martin, who has favored
the blit, tried to get . recognition
Chairman Overstreet to ascertain
an agreement had been ifiade at
previous meeting to leave the bill on
the table for the session.
I was not at the first meeting of
the committee when the action rela
five to tabling the olll was taken,
said Senator Martin. "I understood
that the opponents of the bill, a ma
Jorlty of the committee, agreed to have
the bill tabled, with the definite under
standing that It should not be taken
up during ttils session. In the last
meeting I arose twice to Inquire
that was the understanding. Twice
arose without receiving recognition.
Pereonally, I feel that If such nil agree
ment was reached In committee that
It Is ns binding as any oath could be.
I could not aasent to any subterfuge
to take the bill up again.”
It remains to be seen whether or not
the house and senate ran get together
the anti-pass and antl-lobbylng
bills. The two bodies passed measures
widely differing on these two subjects,
and It Is a question whether either will
recede from the position taken.
The senate has kept Its salendar
pretty clear. Aa faat as house busl
nesa comes over It Is given attention,
and the senate has also given mens
urea of Us own origin as prompt at
tentlon. It Is probable that two dally
session* will .be held for the remainder
of the week.
NO INVESTIGATION

The action of the aldermanlc board

FOREIGNERS GET OIL FROM TRUST
AT THE EXPENSE OF AMERICANS
AND AT MUCH CHEAPER RATES
Washington, Aug. 12.—Herbert Knox
Smith, commissioner of corporations,
has made, public another section of hi*
report on the operations of the Stand
ard Oil Company pertaining particu
larly to discrimination In prices. He
charges that the policy of the trust has
been to fdrnlsh oil at low prlcea In for.
cign countries at the expense of the
American consumer.
Commissioner Smith asserts that the
Standard, enjoying practically an abso
lute control of the oil trade In thla
country, has charged such prices a* It
could thereby extort and the American
consumer has had to pay these prices.
Meeting competition abroad, It has giv
en the foreign consumer enorffiously
U w-er prices, Hnd It has used the profits
made at home to maintain Its compe
tition abroad, ao that the American
consumer has been severely dlscriml
tabling, not the dominance of American
export trade, but the dominance of a
particular combination which has used
Its power frequently and conspicuously
to the disadvantage of .thy American
public.
It la shown In the report that 7
mills per gallon on Illuminating oil af
fords a profit of about 10 per cent on
the Investment In refining and market
ing the oil. ‘‘But the actual differ
ences In the Standard's prices among
competitive and noncompetitive towns
and areaa," says Commissioner Smith,
"often amount to several cents per
gallon. A combination which can com
mand the profits that these figures Im
ply, over large areas, has therefore ob
viously a tremendous weapon when It
enters on aggressive price-cutting
against Independent concerns."
Tho report adverts to a ’’striking"
Instance of this divergence In the prices
of the aapie grade of oil In California,
where the Standard carries oil from Its
refinery near San Francisco several
hundred miles, by water and rail, to
Southern California and there sells It
for several cent* a gallon lees than It
charges for It In San Francisco. Com
missioner Smith declares that the evi
dence “Is absolutely conclusive" that
the Standard takes full advantage of
all noncompetitive conditions to Im
pose the highest prices possible, end It
uses similar means to drive from the
competitive field all would-be rivals tor
business.
