A Fitting Close.
The last card played by Governor At
kinson just before he retired from the
high office which he has misused for so
long. is generally regarded as
a fitting close to his four years mal
administration.
We refer, of course, to hi* final shake of
the political dice box, which has been the
chief feature of his administration, by
which Jake Beach resigns a prison com
missionership in order that Governor At
kinson. almost upon the hour of retiring
from office, might deal out a little more
patronage, in the hope that it would re
turn as bread cast upon the waters two
years hence, when he gets ready to tackle
Senator Bacon.
Nothing like It was ever before heard
of. For a retiring governor to make ap
pointment* twelve hours before going out
of office is unprecedented, but for a gov
ernor to bring about certain changes on
the eve of his retirement from office, in
order that he might make such a political
play, is Just a little too much for even the
jHtlitician* who have become hardened by
four yeans association with this king of
(Mtanut politicians.
But it Is worse than useless to criticise
such an act. We can only consider the
effect of it. It Is generally conceded that
in miking this play Governor Atkinson
hie simply pulled the hole in after him.
If it was to help his chances for the
United States senatorship. as is generally
admitted, it will, undoubtedly, have the
opposite effect. It Is almost the unani
mous opinion that no more disgraceful
thing has occurred during the entire time
that Governor Atkinson has been using
the office of governor to ‘'fix" things po
litically in Georgia, and it seems to be
conceded that the affair will recoil on him
with terrific force.
We regrcat to have to speak so plainly
of a retiring governor, for we had thought
it but Christian-like to deal gently with
the dead, but. when a political corpse
comes to life long enough to kick the lid
off the coffin and to throw dirt in the
eyes of the people at the funeral, it de
serves to be denounced.
The appointment of Professor McCand
>ess as state chemist is considerably out
of the ordinary, in that it is in no sense
a “political appointment.” Profesßor
Mi (' ll.dh .S •*■«.• not even an applicant for
the position, and made no effort whatever
■to secure it, so that in selecting him
Commissioner Steven* must have been
<uldcd solely by a desire to get the right
man for the place. It is generally admit
ted that the appointment will give uni
versal satisfaction.
Mayor Collier,s Letter.
The News publishes elsewhere as an ad
vertisement a letter addressed to Mayor
Price by Mayor ('oilier, of Atlanta, giving
Atlanta's experience with the whisky traf
fic. It is our opinion that no more sensi
ble or important argument has been ad
vanced since the present contest began
than that offered by Mayor Collier, who
certainly cannot be considered a "liquor
man" in any sense of the word.
But we do not accept Mayor Collier’s
letter as being merely an argument against
prohibition. It seems to us that It goes
further and lays stress on the very point
made by The News relative to the sale of
liquor—l. e. that high license and restric
tions are better than prohibition.
It seems to us that Mayor Price should
consider very carefully this part of Mayor
Collier’s letter, and if he values that gen
tleman's opinion as much as appears, he
should be guided also by his advice as to
high license and restrictions. It is not
consistent to accept that portion of Mayor
Collier's letter which declares prohibition
to be unwise and hurtful and discard that
portion which shows high license and re
strlotlons to be the correct plan for con
trolling the sale of whisky.
In a word. Atlanta’s experience, both
with prohibition and with high license,
proves The News' contention, and very
strongly recommends it to the considera
tion of the mayor and council of Macon.
What Mayor Collier says as to Atlanta's
experience is not his own opinion alone,
but is the opinion of nearly evbry promi
nent citizen of* Atlanta, many of whom
have expressed their views in published
interviews.
We consider all of these views sound,
and we commend them to the mayor and
council and all the conservative people of
Macon. We sincerely hope the former will
yet see fit to offer the prohibitionists a
compromise of the nature suggested, and
■we know such a compromise will be over
whelfhingly endorsed by the conservative
citizens of this community.
The News has never taken a stand that
has proven so universally popular as is its
fight for higher license and more restric
tions; which simply means a fight for
harmony and for a correct solution of the
liquor traffic. We firmly believe that
fully two-thirds of the people of this com
munity are of the same way of thinking,
and we hope that such an adjustment of
the matter may yet be reached.
We beg to suggest that the issue in Bibb
county is becoming so muddled that it is
difficult to tell whether it is Price or Pro
hibition.
Candler’s Inauguration.
The ceremonies attending the inaugu
ration of Allen D. Candler as governor of
Georgia were simple in the extreme.
The plain man of the people who was
sworn in os governor of Georgia on Sat
urday last, assumed the duties of that
high office with as little display as pos
sible, and one could not help noticing the
absence of show and vanity—%s marked, in
fact, as is the absence of these things in
•the individual himself.
But while Saturday’s ceremonies lack
ed in display as compared with similar
ceremonies that have been ■witnessed at
the capital, they did not lack in impres
siveness. for there was a general feeling
of relief and of satisfaction everywhere
manifested at the thought of a change of
administration.
Everywhere the feeling of confidence
,md good will for the new executive
is discernible, and no man ever went
into office under brighter auspices. Polit
ically he has the friendship and co-opera
tion of practically all of those about him.
Personally he has their respect and es
teem, and no one can be found who be
lieves he will do aught to forfeit either.
Though exceedingly brief, Governor
Candler's inaugural address was to the
point, clear and business like, and it has
met with general approval. Everyone be
lieves that he will adhere strictly to the
policy laid down by him, and there is a
feeling of serenity and confidence so far
h* executive affairs are concerned in
Georgia, that has not been felt in years.
Any man would be willing to become
governor to be kissed by such a flair wo
man as paid Governor Candler that com
pliment on Saturday last.
Judge Nottingham.
It will be gratifying news to Judge
Warren Nottingham'* numerous friends to
know that he has his judgeship commission
as good as in his jiocket. He won hands
down, and it seems to be the general ver
dict that he deserves it. He was a faith
ful supporter of Colonel Candler, and be
i« recognized as being both a lawyer of
ability and a man of character. Judge
Nottingham will serve for four years as
city Judge of Macon, and the salary is
13,000 per year, so that he has secured one
of the nicest plums going.
Judge Nottingham will make an excel
lent city court judge, and we believe his
appointment, after the first sting of dis
appointment has passed off, will give uni
versal satisfaction, even to his bitterest
opponents.
Judge Gap. sense enough to
steer clear of that prison commissioner
ship boomerang.
It looks more and more like war be
tween France and England.
Hl* Life Wan Saved.
Mr. J. E. Lilly, a citizen of
HJ&nnfbal, Mo., lately had a wonderful de
liverance from a frightful death. In tell
ing of It he says: "I was taken with ty
phoid fever, that ran into pneumonia.
My lungs became hardened. I was so
woak< I couldn't even sit up in bed. Noth
helped me. I expected to sooa die of
when I heard of Dr. King’s
New Discovery. Nine bottles gave great
relief. I continued to use it, and now am
well and strong, I can’t say too much in
its praise.” This marvellous medicine is
the surest and quickest cure in the world
for al throat and lung troubles. Regular

STJBARNABAS.
Rev. Martin Darner Has Gone
to Fort Scott, Kansas.
Mr. Martin Darner, of St. Barnabas
Episcopal church, has been offered and
has accepted the rectorship of an Episco
pal church at Fort Scott, Kan. His place
will be taken by Rev. A. Craighill, who
was recently ordained at Suwanee.
Mr. Darner hat been here for a number
of years and has endeared himself very
much to the members of his congregation,
among whom he will -be greatly missed.
His successor, Mr. Craighill, has. how
ever, made a most excellent impression
among the Episcopalians of the city. He
iftis filled the pulpit at Christ church for
the last three weeks during the absence of
Rev. F. F. Reese, who has been in atten
dance on the Episcopal convention at
Washington.

INVOLUNTARY BANKRUPTCY
Some Notes and Particulars of the New
Measure.
That portion of the national bankruptcy
law referring to involuntary bankrupts
will become operative (November 1. The
part of the law referring to voluntary
bankruptcy has been in effect since Au
gust 1.
On and after November 1 creditors may
force a debtor into bankruptcy and have
his assets distributed pro rata to pay his
debts.
The law is of good general interest.
A creditor is defined as anyone who
owns a claim, provable in law, against
another.
A petition to have one adjudged an in
voluntary bankrupt must be filed in the
United States court.
Three or more creditors whose provable
claims are SSOO in excess of their security,
may tile such a petition.
If the Creditors are less than 12 in num
ber, one of them may file a petition if his
claim is SSOO or more. -
Any person, except a wage-earner, or
one who is engaged in tilling the soil, may
be forced into bankruptcy, provided fie
owes debts exceeding SI,OOO.
Private bankers, but no State or Nat
ional banks, can be forced into bankrupt
cy, also corporations and partnership con
cerns.
Upon filing his petition the creditor must
give as complete a schedule of the bank
rupt’s debts as possible for him to obtain.
A petitioner cannot withdraw his peti
tion without the consent of the other
creditors.
The petitioners are required to give bond
for security of the costs of suit.
When the case has been entered in court
it is referred to a referee and adjudicated
the same as a case of voluntary bank
ruptcy.
All conveyances of property and dis
charges of debts made by a debtor within
four months previous to the declaration
of his bankruptcy are revoked and made
null and void.
The referee is to cover such assets and
use them to discharge the claims of cred
itors without preference.
No creditor can be givqn preference over
another. •
If it is proved that a transfer of prop
erty has been made, or creditors have
been paid by a debtor, in anticipation of
a petition of Involuntary bankruptcy, the
transaction will be declared void by the
court and creditors can recover the as
sets.
When a debtor has been'adjudged an in
voluntary bankrupt, the law directs that
trustees shall be appointed to take charge
of his estate and administer it to the best
advantage of all parties interested.
When all of his property- has been used
to pay off his debts,s as far as possible,
the debtor is allowed a discharge, which
releases him from all unpaid indebted
ness.
