CURTISTfllES HftRD
TO SECURE II VOTE
BUT FAILS AGAIN
Douncil Steps From Und$r
and Suddenly Ad
journs.
Thr city council just could not bring
toe-If to the point of voting Monday on
h>' merit* of the resolution by Alder-
nan Curtin, providing for popular elec-
lims by Ihe poople, and. after hour* of
fciny and dodging, of amendment* and
■ubatitutes and *ubterfuge», somebody
noved to adjourn and the motion was
larrled.
Alderman Curtl* ha* been working
Mr almost the entire year trying to get
council to vote on his resolution, pro
viding for popular election*. He failed
he first part of the year and decided
Jiat If he could get an expression from
:he people he could get action by coun
:ll on his proposition.
The people voted on hla resolution at
.he last primary, and voted almost
:hree to one In favor of It. Since that
:lme, council has dodged a vote suc-
resafully, referring and re-referrlng It.
Monday, however. It looked like the al
Jerman had It In shape so that a vote
rould not be avoldet). Then the motion
!o adjourn was put and adopted.
Charter Revision Plan.
It all came about when the special
committee, to which the alderman’s
resolution was last referred, offered a
resolution providing for the creation of
s charter revision commission which
would take up the matter of popular
tlectlons, a general revision of the char-
ter and the best forms of government,
this commission to report b^ck to coun
cil In six months.
It was generally believed that coun
cil would adopt this resolution. Al
derman Curtis objected to It on the
ground that he thought It an effort to
sidetrack action on his resolution, and
he offered as a substitute a resolution
providing for popular election of the
recorder, stating that he Intended to
have council vote separately on the
popular election of each city official In
hla original resolution.
Councilman Hancock wanted the’
matter referred to the council of 1908.
Councilman Harman wanted the mnt-
ter tabled. Councilman Pearce wanted
the matter to be submitted to the pro
file In the general election in December
so that tlje people might vote separately
on each official.
Councilman Martin offered a reso
lution providing that "council carry out
the will of the people.” Councilman
Martin's substitute was finally adopted
by a vote of 10 to 8, and then council,
evidently thinking It had done some
thing too decisive, reconsidered, and
then adjourned.
Alderman Curtis, In.objecting to the
resolution by tho special committee, to
which was referred hi* resolution,
Mated that neither he nor anybody else
had been informed that there would be
any meeting.
“It was published In The Georgian,"
stated Councilman Longlno, the chair
man. ”1 thought everybody In Atlanta
read The Georgian.”
"Everybody Reads The Georgian.
"Nearly everybody does." added Al
derman Curtis, "and those who don't

The popular election of city officials

be taken up at the next session.

Alderman Key Would Take
Up Teachers’ Dissatis
faction.
An effort to secure an Investigation
by council of the causes leading to the
reported dissatisfaction of the teachers
of the public schools,.nnd of the secret
sessions of the board of education, fail
ed by one vote Monday afternoon, and
that vote was cast by Councilman Rob.
erts, acting mayor pro tern., after a tie
on the floor.
Alderman Key offered a resolution
providing for a committee of council
to investigate the report that the teach
ers of Atlanta have been unjustly
treated, and the report that the board
of education holds all Its meetings be
hind closed doors.
On an aye and nay vote It was found
thnt the result was a tie—11 to 11.
Councilman Roberts, who was acting
mayor pro tern, in the absence of Ah
derman Qullllan, voted against the res
olutlon. The effort to get more light
on this matter was thus defeated by
one vote.
Following was the vote:
For the Resolution—Holland, Key,
Curtis, Beutell, Terrell, Baskin, Hud
dleston, Choaewood, Mangum, Pearce,
Styron.
Against the Resolution—Hlrsch, Mc-
Kachern. Peters, Martin, Pomeroy.
Glass, Taylor, Grant, Hancock, Lon
glno, Harman.
Criticisss Secret Sessions,
Alderman Key, In explaining hi* re*,
olutlon, stated that he had no desire to
stir up trouble in the school board, but
that Inasmuch as the teacher* think
they have been mistreated, or such is
the report, und they have no redress,
and there Is considerable criticism of
the board for holding Ita meeting In
secrecy, council should take a hand in
justice to all parties concerned.
Councilman Grant, ex-offlelo member
of the board, stated he was willing for
the Investigation to take place, but he
thought It would be Ill-advised.
The board of education. It seem* from
report*, has not held a meeting open
to the public or any part of the public
for year*. Every meeting, whether for
electing teachers, opening bids, award.
Ing contracts, or adding work to the
teachers, Is held behind closed doors,
and the secretary I* allowed to give
out to the press only what the board
wants the public to know.
It Is not at all Improbable that an
other effort will bo made to have an
Investigating committee appointed.

WON BY CENTRAL
AND STATE LOSES
Richmond County’s Ancient
Ends in U. S.
Supreme Court.
Fight
By a decision,of the Vnlted State*
supreme court, Georgia, Richmond
countir and Augusta have lost In the
"back tax case” of the,Georgia rail-
road, while the Central railroad case
Is sent back to the state courts on a
technical point.
Through' this flnsl decree ihe state,
county and municipality lose on aggre
gate of taxes between $800,000 and $1,-
000,01(0. Suit was brought against the
Central and Georgia for 15,000 shares
owned by each in tho Western Railway
of Alnbama, which the comptroller held
waa taxable from 1895.
Litigation In this cue has been .the
most Involved of any the state has en
gaged In for years. Richmond county
and the city of. Augusta fought It out
with several counties for th* amount
supposed te accrue from the Georgia
road, Richmond Anally winning, y
Action was first brought by the state
before Judge Newman,, who decided
against the state. It went to the court
of appeals, where the state again lost,
and finally to the United States su
preme court. The supreme court de
cided In favor of Georgia In this con
tention, and again it went to the Uni
ted State* supreme court, whore the
state lost.
Naturally, Comptroller Wright and
Attorney General Hart nre disappoint
ed at this decision, u It means the
loss of near half a million to the state.
In delivering the opinion on the Geor
gia railroad caae Justice Day evidently
upheld the contention' of the road that
the tax wu excessive and discriminat
ing. since no action had been brought
against any other road.
Taxing Process Invalid.
In delivering his opinion In the Cen
tral of Georgia cue. Justice Day held
that the Georgia taxing process was
not valid. This cue was complicated by
the fact that the stock of the Western
Railway of Alabama in contro-
very la In possession of the Mercantile
Trust Company, held u aecurlty
against $5,000,000 of bonds.
Justice Day's decision reverting the
Georgia court wu based upon the de
nial of the railroad company of the
right to be heard, which, he lays, due
process of law as required by the con
stitution of the United States. The
cue wu, therefore, remanded to the
state court for further proceedings in
accordance with his decision.
In hi* opinion Justice Day dealt en
tirely with the. Georgia process, which
denies to a taxpayer opportunity to be
heard In any proceeding to collect taxes
In cases In which he has failed to make
u tax return of such property because
of an honeet belief that It Is not tax
able, and he concluded that the Georgia
state law, a* construed by tho supheme
court of that state, amounts to a de
nial of due process of law.
"Under the echeme provided for. If
the property Is withheld from return,"
he held "the comptroller, without notice
or opportunity for hearing, must pro
ceed to value the property, and his
valuation I* Anal nnd conclusive unless
the taxpayer can show a very unlikely
contingency, that the taxing officer has
acted In bad faith In making the as
sessment Against the nuessment thus
made there Is no relief In the court! of
the state upon proceedings brought to
collect tho taxes or by bill to enjoin
their collection. The penalty of failure
to return, no matter how honest or
well grounded the taxpayer may lmve
been In hie belief that the property was
not subject to taxation, compels him to
submit to the final und conclusive as-
eessment made by tho taxing officer.
"Roluctant as we are to interfere
with the enforcement of the tax laws
of a etate, we are constrained to the
conclusion that this system does not
provide for that duo process of law
which adjudge* upon notice and oppor-
tunlty to be heard and which It waa the
Intention of the fourteenth amendment
to protect against Impairment by state
action."

“UNCLE REMUS, ” FAR A WA Y,
AND WITHOUT DRESS SUIT,
DINES WITH ROOSEVELT
.. ■ By JAMES HAY, JR.
Washington, Nov. 19.—"Uncle Re
mus” sat In a cushioned chair In the
lobby of the Raleigh.
The "Little Boy” sat beside him and
moaned with him.
"Uncle Remua" Is Joel Chandler Har
ris, and the "little boy” Is his son,
Julian.
"Uncle Remus,” "the little boy" and
the poet dined with President Rooae-
velt at the white house last night.
Don Marquis Is the poet He dashes
off sonnets and auch things for Uncle
Remus’s Magaslne, and of whose work
th* president has heard.
A reporter come In nnd "Un
cle Remus" and the "little boy" shook
hods with him In a manner that re
called all the etorles ever told about
Southern courtesy and charm.
"Well, what's th* newer; asked the
reporter.
Uncle Remua changed his quid of
chewing tobacco from his left to his
right Jaw.
"No news,” he said laconically, "ex
cept that the crops ore good down
South. I’ve got the. finest collard patch
In Georgia.”
Uncle Remus Is a stout man, with a
laugh In hi* eyes. He wears a blsck
sombrero hat, a black tie and a black
suit of clothes. The little boy Is a
handsome young fellow, and the admir
ing way he stands around and looks at
chair to chair—hard on the chairs—my
weight you see. And I’m Just about
worn out.”
"All In," put In the little boy In mod.
ern slang.
"Yes, I’m tired,” went on Uncle
Remus. "You newspaper fellow* come
around so often. Just let a man mako
out he’s modest and retiring nnd bash
ful and ho’ll be the best advertised man
in the country. You see, they all think
I'm bashful and I’m the most widely
advertised gentleman I know anything
about at all. They put my picture on
the outside and inside of alt the week
lies and monthlies. It's awful to be so
modest."
Uncle Remus sighed with real regret.
"Why don't you go Into politics?” the
reporter asked.
Uncle Remus nearly threw a fit at
that. You would have thought he had
heard the death rattle In the throats of
"Brer Rabbit,” "Brer Fox.” “Brer Pos
sum” and all the other animals. Then
Uncle Remua "laid hack an' he jes'
laff' anfi lair fit to kill hlsse’f."
When he was asked what time he
expected to dine with the president, he
said:
"1 don’t know. Maybe I might b»
too sick."
"That's right," put In the little boy.
"Dad’s feeling pretty bad now—too
much train, I guess."
Both of them were referring to the
modesty for which Uncle Remus has
become famous.
Hut his chuckle sounded ns If he
Uncle Remus ,s a revelation In filial de- might last through the ceremony of n
votlon. Uncle Remua chews tobacco In
a way that scorna the expense entailed
In consuming large quantities of the
"When did you get here?" Uncle
Remus was asked. . „ .
"About 8 o'clock this morning, he
replied. "Would have gotten her*
sooner but the train had to go around
the city about three time* before we
got Into the station—thnt grand new
thing you have up there on the hill, and
after we got In, we had a hard time
getting out.
“My! We’re from the country, you
know, and this sort of thing comes
hard.” - —-
Uncle Remus paused and did some
more acrobatic things to hla quid.
"Been looking for some good South
ern corn bread today,” he continued,
"We can’t find the right kind here,"
put In the little by. . , ...
"I should say not," added Uncle
Remus, with a groan.
"What have you been doing all
day?” he was asked.
"Well," sold Uncle Remus, ”we
waited around all morning for dinner
and now we’re walling around for sup

dinner at the White House, a func
tion to which the president has often
Invited Uncle Remus.
As the reporter left Uncle Remus
called to him:
"Come down to Georgia and I’ll ehow
you the (finest collard patch In- the
state. Maybe Brer Rabbit might be
laffln' ’round' In It."
Uncle Remus was a little worried
when he got the president's Invitation,
for to him It suggested a dress coat.
Frealdent Roosevelt learned that "Un
cle Remus”' wardrobe did not include
the garment which fashion, custom nnd
the commissioner of public buildings
and grounds decrees shall be worn n|
evening functions at the white house.
So the president told Sir. Harris not
to bother about such a little matter,
but to come attired'Just as he wished.
The president ahd Mrs. Roosevelt,
Miss Ethel p.oosevelt and Captain Fit*,
hugh Lee, Jr., were tho only others
who sat around the big tnble In the
state dining room.
Throughout the dinner the conver
sation was of a decided literary tone.
After dinner 'the party went to the
east room, where Mr*. Carrie Jacobs
Bond, of Chicago, sang several songs.
It was a tired but very happy "Uncle
Remus” » ho returned to hla hotel at
12:80 O’clock nnd sdld that he had had
the time of hla life. The party return-
ed to Georgia this morning.

Woman Diee of Injuries.
New York, Nov. 19.—Mrs. Agnes
Sleekier, wife of former Supreme Cour’
Justice Stockier, died last night at the
hospital at Englewood, N. J., where
she had been confined since Saturday,
by. Injuries received that night In an
automobile accident.
MRS.JAMES CHESTER
The first requisite of a good
mothor is good health, and tho ex
perience of maternity should not be
approached without careful physical
preparation, as a woman who is in
good physical condition transmits to
her children tho blessings of a good
constitution.
Preparation for healthy mater
nity is accomplished by Lydia E.
Pinkham’a Vegetable Compound,
which is made from.native roots and
herbs, more successfully than by any
other medicine because it gives tone
and strength to the entire feminine
organism, curing displacements, ul
ceration and inflammation, and the
result Ib less suffering and more children healthy at birth. For more
than thirty years
Lydia E. Pinkham’sVegetable Compound
has been the standby of American mother* In preparing for childbirth.
NotewhntMrs JamesChcstcr,of427 W. 35th St., New York says in this
letter:—Dear Mrs. Pinkhnm:-“I wish every expectant motherknew about
Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound. A, neighbor who had learned
of ita great value at this trying period of a woman’s life urged me to try
it and I did so, and I cannot say enongh in regard to the good it did me.
I recovered quickly and am In the best of health now.”
Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound Is certainly a successful
remedy for the peculiar weaknesses and ailments of women.
It hoa cored almost every form of Femate Complaints, Dragging Sensa
tions, Weak Back, Falling and Displacements, Inflammation, Ulcera
tions and Organic Diseases of Women and is invaluable In preparing for
Childbirth and during the Change of Life.
