voting pa—lation 250 negroes and 350
white voters These figures are given
bp a ganUem.tn interested in the prop
osition ( 0 mag- a now ward.
Why the Change Is bought.
The desire for the new ward la. 1 am
told, principally to secure direct rep-)
reaentatlon In city council for n large
and growing section of the city. It la .
held that as per number of poputat.on
the people in the Fourth ward are now
not given the representation that 1*
given the population in other wards; !
that the Fourth ward, as now constltu- j
ted. comprises one-fourth of the ppp- j
ulatlon of the city, and is given one- .
fifth of the representation: that It has 1
twice the realty return of any other of i
the five wards, but Is only given equal i
i representation of wards; that •
westward and southward the course of
empire Is taking Its way. and the
Fourth ward is rapidly growing, while
the First, Second and Third wards are
practically at * standstill; and the
Fifth ward 1* growing also, but ha*
not yet reached the population or real
ty wealth which the cumbersome
Fourth ha.- achieved; that direct repre
sentation In council Is needed; that
the present efficient members In coun
cil from the Fourth have too large a
territory to watch over; that the three
couacilmen from that ward, however
still or active, can secure no more for
their ward than can any of the three
councilman from any of the smaller
wards Becure for their constituency.
• No New Territory.
It would seem at first that It was the
Intention to take in new territory for
the city and put It into the new warn.
This was the inferenee from the fact
that the matter Is carried to the legis
lature. especially on the part of those
who contend that the power to regu
late the wards rests solely in council.
It is held that this is clearly shown—
that the city divides up and makes the
limits of its own wards, and need not j
go to the legislature for authority or!
help except when new territory is to
be taken in. If much new territory
were taken in it would necessarily be
so stated in the bill title as posted, and
if it were contemplated to change mill- 1
tia districts it would be necessary to so
state In the bill title.
The matter is being looked up now;
and it may be definitely pointed out
that legislation is not necessary or
permissible. In that case the matter
would go to council for judgment
The Wards of Augusta.
That there is necessity for recon
structing the city wards is generally
admitted, though the plan ol redlstrict

Tlte Point of Expense
Tboas who favor redtotrlcting con
tend that ths creation of a new ward
to unaccessary, and that tba sxpsasa
of such new ward could tia avoided It
I* pointed out by them that this addi
tional expense would be SI,OOO a year,
on such Item* a* SIS® for roundUnen.
S2OO for a»e***ora, SM» for registry
| clerk*. $25 for election precinct, and
!no on.
However, both llnei of argument baa
merit, and council will pas* upon tha
matter. The state legislature would—
even If It ba* the matter entirely In
custody—refer It back to council. In
every probability, before It made It
law. However, it la pretty certain If
neither districts are to be changed, and
If no now territory is to be taken In,
the entire matter rents with council,
and not with the legislature.
