THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, MAY SUCCEED TO If Gov. Smith Declines Sec ond Term Candler Is Likely Successor. Out of all the discussion of men and measures In Georgia today looms a strong figure. Within the past few years no man In public life in the state has grown so on the people, has become such a strong and dominating element In the broader questions of the day. as Mur phy Candler, of DeKnlb. . His service for two years In the senate and his wise Judgment and splendid diplomacy in the lower house this year has brought to the fore. , . . . . . among observant men his wisdom and punishment does C htef Turner base hts his strength. assertion that the stock In the proposed Beneath all the comment and rumor company will **>ar six months after the relative to political preferment p, first apparatus is set up where a needy Georgia in the future one hears the j public can be supplied with kicks by name of Murphy Candler very often. DROP NICKEL JN THE SLOT AND KICK \ OUR SELT WHEN yOU THINK yOU NEED IT Machine Would Be Busy Dav After Election. Chief A. Q. Turner, of the county po lice, has given some of his many friends the tip to go In on the ground floor und purchase stock In the “Amalgamated Consolidated Automatic Self-Kicking Trust," which may or may not be form- 1th a great capital to cater to the wants of that large proportion of man kind which so often Is affected with the desire to "go out and kick Itself." Upon a knowledge of human nature and the various experiences of tho av- ulwr age man’s life w*hlch often result In fore I an overwhelming desire to Inflict self- And the belief among people who know him well and understand his capacity and his serene strength are talking more and more of higher things for him In the public life of Georgia. It is conceded that If Governor Smith elects to stand for another term In the governorship he will go back unopposed. Custom has practically fixed In Georgia the right of a man to an unopposed second term, If he de sires It. And there Is no doubt that Governor Smith could have his second term without a fight If he runs again. Governor for 8onsto? But the belief Is growing stronger every day that the governor will seek the United States senatorshlp next year. He has confessed frankly It Is the public service most agreeable to Mm. and the forum In which his tastes and capacity would find the most con genial atmosphere. That Governor Smith Is Imbued with a sincere desire to perform for the people of his state a great sendee ns chief executive has been demonstrated beyond cavil. If he thought his guiding hand at the helm was needed for an other term he would not hesitate to sacrifice strong personal ambition. But the larger part of the reforms advo cated by Governor Smith have been accomplished. That the others advo cated win be accomplished next sum mer Is conceded. ft appears, therefore, that no com pelling reasons stand In hie way for stepping up. And with Governor Smith In the United States senate nn Impression Is growing In Georgia that a man of the breadth and wise conservatism of Mur phy Candler should be In the govern or's chair. Would he make the race? Well, he Is young, has ambition and a liking for politics In the bigger sense, and It Is no small honor to be chief executive of Georgia. That he would not op pose Governor Smith is practically certain. Candlsr Has Strength. That he would enter the lists with .Governor Smith out of the running, his strongest friends believe. That he would bring about him a solid follow ing of many of the etrongeat men In all parts of the state. Is conceded. Mr. Candler is a reformer, but a conservative, well-bn I a need one. He Is not a fanatic on any subject. He recognizes that every Individual has Inherent rights that must be respected. And. above nil, he would be a governor over whose head no man or set of men could pop the whip. If Georgia should select Murphy Candler to guide the ship of state, Murphy Candler would attend to the Job without direction or dictation from any one. Keep your eye on the man from De- :he nickel’s worth. "The best arrangement." said Chief Turner. In speaking of the nrospcctlve company, "will be to set the automatic machines up In a booth on each corner. If they were hard to get at the divi dends wouldn't bo so large, as many men would cool off n bit and change their minds before they took the treat ment. "Putting them on the street comers would, of course, necessitate a fran chise from the city, and that would make the company a hard-hearted cor poration, but we wouldn’t mind nor W'ould anyone else In such a position when they thought of the great benefit to humanity. "The price, of course, had better be regulated by the cost of maintenance, the demand and other things, but I believe In giving the poor man a show and 5 cents would be reasonable, with extra charges for # particularly severe treatment. "Many's the time when I would have paid a dollar for a good sound kicking. Of course 1 would get mad If anyone else did It, and that Is Just the point— nobody but a machine administers the kicks. The machine would get pretty good patronage down here In the court house and at the police station."

Congressman Says He Is Undecided, But He Keeps Mighty Busy. A caucus was held In the Kimball House Wednesday evening between Congressman L. V. Livingston and some of his supporters here. Nothing haa come to light relative to Colonel Liv ingston’s campaign for congress, and the organization of his forces In Ful ton, which were probably discussed fully In the Kimball House conference. While Colonel Livingston declined to atate In an interview whether or not he would be a candidate, no one doubts for a minute that he will be actively engaged In canvassing the district. He spent Wednesday In Atlanta con ferring with his friends, and Thursday morning went down .to College Park to "look around." He stated Wednesday that he had not formally announced Ills candidacy, but was feeling the pulse of his constituency us to whether or not they wanted him to make the race ^Colonel Livingston declared that he had been In five counties so far, and had found the sentiment almost unani mous for him to run again. That he Is now In the race and hard at work no one seriously doubts. Senator A. S. Clay was in Atlanta also Wednesday, but declined to dis cuss his probable candidacy for the senatorial succession.

SCIENTISTS MOST New By-Law Is Issued by the Head Church in Boston. New York, Sept. 19.—The World this morning says: As a result of rerent prosecutions against members of the Christian 8cl- ence church In cases where members have died without regular physicians having been called, the board of direc tors of the mother church In Boston, In. spired directly by Mrs. Eddy, have Is- sued a new by-law. The by-law la mandatory In charac ter anil Is to bo binding on all adher ents of the Christian Science church throughout the world. It Is unnounced In the following Isngunge: 'Article XX, Seetlon 8. Sudden Dis ease: If a member of tho mother church shall decease suddenly without previous Injury or Illness and the cause thereof be unknown, an autopsy shall be made by qualified experts.” Inquiry yesterday at the propaganda of the Christian Science cult In this city brought out that the new by-law shall be read by the faithful with "In telligence." or Instance, while every devout scientist understands perfectly that In jury and Illness, as understood by the world at large, are not Injuries or Ill nesses at all, but "errors" and that no scientist ever dies, but rather passes on, and wholly through his Insistence on his own "error," yet slnre certain limn are In use. the board of directors of the mother church, at the behest of Mrs, Eddy, hopefully employs the terms In Indicating to ita laity that there are times when It Is permissible to call In the coroner.

HIGH OFFICIALS TO BE ARRESTED Harrisburg, Pa., Sept. 19.—"Until the present cases are disposed of, there will be no proceedings against any other men charged with complicity In the capitol graft, but there will be nu merous other arrests later.” In these words Deputy Attorney Gen. eral Cunningham sums up the situation in the campaign on the looters of the state treasury.

Nearly all of the Interested Individ- uals have gone home, and nothing more remains to be done until '.he gpind Jury meets next week. a portion of that year?" Witness said he could not say, but would be glad to look It up. Then Mr, Kellogg took up the ques tlon of the original trust agreement placed on the record last night. The Chess-Carley Company was what Mr. Kellogg wanted first to know about. Mr. Tilford said that concern was a party to the original trust agreement. The Standard owned 60 per cent and F. D. Carley the remainder. The Standard's stock, he thought, stood In the name of some of the Indf vldual stockholders. Kept Up Orgsnizstlon. Mr. Tilford then told of his connec tlon with the oil business, which com menced with the firm of Bostick & Til ford In 1869. He later became connect ed with the Standard CHI Company of Ohio. He was the counsel to the ltqul dating trustees. Mr. Tilford admitted that the trustees kept up their organisation from 1892 until 1899 because It held quite a num her of unliquidated certificates and re celved the dividends from tho twenty corporations controlled by the original trust. These were collected and In turn paid to the shareholders. The Ohio Standard Oil Company, however, at that time, paying no dividends, witness said, owing to legislation and litigation, but of the organisation Mr. Tilford could not remember much. Mr. Kellogg asked about the w-ay the officers and directors of the subsidiary companies were elected during the truatshlp. They Voted 8toek. Mr. Tilford said he thought the trus. tees voted the stock until the liquids tlon had commenced. After that he was certain the Individual stockhold era themselves elected them. He was likewise very sure the trustees did not vote any of the unliquidated stock still held In their possession. Just how the original transfer of stock was made was what Mr. Kellogg next started to find out about. 'Now, the trustees made the assign ments 7” "Yes." Mr. Hllbum here interposed his In. slstence that tils objection of last night be noted on the record. “Have you any record of that stock as It was liquidated,” Mr. Kellogg asked. "I have not." replied Mr. Tilford "Before the dissolution of the truV which occurred In 1892, had the trus tees turned over the stock of these twenty companies?" "I don't know about that." John D. Got Shares. John D. Rockefeller was assigned 2(8,864 shares out of a total of 972,- 600 trust certificates by a resolution adopted by the trustees of the Stand ard Oil trust In 1892; with the begin ning of the liquidation proceedings, ac cording to Treasurer Tilford. The "blanket” arrangement of signing the stock In the reorganised company, the present Standard Oil Company, of New Jersey, gave the holder of each certificate a propor tionate control In all the sub-compa nies. "And that stock could not be con verted except on your order as the at torney In fact?" "That Is correct." "Did any holder of stock ever sell his shares In one company without disposing of his Interests In the sub- companies?" ’’Not that I know of." •Can you give me the atfiount of stock owned by Mr. John D. Rocke feller at the time of the dissolution?". "I don’t think so. I will look and see If there Is any record In my olfice.” Agreed to Get Record. At the request of Attorney Kellogg, the witness agreed to search the rec ords for the amount of stock held by Henry H. Rogers, William Rockefeller, H. M. Flagler, Oliver H. Payne, Charles M. Pratt, Stephen B. Harkness and John D. Archbold In 1892. when, the liquidation proceedings were begun, and also (or the number of shares as signed to them In the reorganized Standard Oil Company, of New Jer sey, In 1899. “Who got up the scheme of that re organization?” "I don't know. It might have been an nttorney. but I don’t know.” "You were a trustee, an officer’ of the company and prominent In the company at that time?" added Kellogg, Inquiringly. "Oh. 1 wouldn’t say I was promi nent.” ventured Treasurer Tilford, modestly. ”1 ask you again, who got up thq scheme of reorganisation?” "I don’t know. Mr. Kellogg. All I know Is that it worked out.” "Is It not a fact that the Idea was to give the trustees control of the sub- Hand-embroidered Pillow Slips at 5.C0, 7.00, 8.00,10.00 and 12.00.
