Legal Advertising.
The following is the Act regulating legal
advertising in the State, as passed asul ap
proved by the Governor.
An Act. To regulate the rates and manner
of legal advertising in this State, and to
prohibit Ordinaries, Sheriffs, Clerks Mar
shals or other officers from receiving or
collecting either from plaintiffs or defen
dants or others greater fees than therein
provided, and making a disregard of the
requirements of this Act, extortion and
prescribing the punishment thereof.
Skotiost 1. Be it enacted by the General
Assembly of the State of Georgia, and it ie
hereby enacted by authority of the aame.
That from and after the passage of this Act
' the rates to be allowed to publishers for
publishing legal advertisements in this
State, shall be as follows: For each one
hundred words, seventy-five cents for each
insertion for the first four insertions; for
each subsequent insertion the sum of thir
ty-five cents per hundred words. In all
cases fractional parts shall be charged for
at the same rates, and it shall not be law
ful for any Ordinary, Sheriff, Coroner,
Clerk, Marshal or other officer to receive or
oollect from parties, plaintiffs or defend
ant, other or greater rates than herein set
forth.
Section 2. Be it further enaoted by the
authority aforesaid, and it is hereby enact
ed by the authority of the same, That any
Ordinary, Sheriff, Coroner, Clerk, Marshal
or other officer, who shall receive, collect
or demand other and greater fees than are
provided in the first section of this Act,
shall be deemed guilty of extortion and
upon conviction thereof shall be punished
as prescribed in Section 4310 of the Revis
ed Code.
Section 3. Be it further enacted by the
authority aforesaid, That if the Ordinary,
Sheriff, or other officer is unable to procure
the advertisements at the rates herein pre
scribed in the newspapers published in the
county, then he shall be, and is hereby,
authorized to have said advertisements
published in any newspaper published in
this State having the largest general and
regular circulation in the county: Provid
ed, said rates are agreed upon. Provided
further, if contracts cannot be mad# with
newspapers at the rates aforesaid, then the
Sheriff or Ordinary or other advertising
officers shall post thesr advertisements at
the Court House, in a public place, in each
Militia District in the county, for the
length of time reqirod by law for adver
tising in newspapers.
Section 4. Be it further enacted by the
authority aforesaid, That no Ordinnry,
Sheriff, Coronei? Clerk, Marshal or other
office* shall demand or retain any part of
the said rates prescribed in the first sec
tion of thisjßct, by way of commissions,
either drvectly or indirectly; und to de
mand any part of said rates as commissions
either directly or indirectly, shall be held
and deemed extortion, and upon convic
tion theteof shall be punished as prescrib
ed in Action 4310 of the Code of 1873.
Provided, that this act shall not apply to
any contracts already made by municipal
officers, so* shall any sueh officers be held
liable to penalties herein provided on ac
count of any such contract, but the same
shall be controlled by the law as it now
is.
Seotion 5. Repeals conflicting laws.
The bearal Advertising Bill.
We publish in another column the bill
passed by the Legislature and approved
by the Governor to regulate legal advertis
ing in this State. Sheriffs, Ordinaries,
edc., will find that it allows 75cts for one
hundred words for tho first four inser
tions, and 35ct for every insertion there
after. Some months a Sheriffs sal# has to
be published five times, in order to get it
in the 28 days, al required by the Supreme
Court decision. We trust officers will not
forget to count the number of insertions
—if you do it# your loss, for the law has
said how much and how little the printer
is to receive for his labor. Also remember
that each figure counts as a word, and all
fractions over a hundred words, counts as
one hundred words. Officers should write
out their advertisements, count the num
ber of words and number of insertions,
and collect the money in advance, which
it is their duty to do. —Marietta Journal.
Pulaski March—A Centennial (Souvenir.
From Ludden & Bates’ Southern Music
House, Savannah, Ga., we received a copy
of Pulaski March, written by Prof. Henry
Shoeller, of Dalton, Ga., specially for the
Savamnah Centennial, October 9th, 1879,
and played by the Thirteenth U. S. In
fantry Band at the laying of tho Jasper
Monument comer stone. The piece is
elegantly gotten up and reflects great
credit upon the enterprising publishers.
Its superb military title page with litho
graph of the magnificent Pulaski Monu
ment, of which General Lafayette laid
the comer stone in 1823, is worthy of
framing and will make a tasteful souvenir
of this grand Southern Centennial. The
march is brilliant and inspiring, but not
difficult. Bands are playing it generally
and its voted a genuine success. It should,
grace every Southern girls’ piano. All
music dealers sell it. Send 40 cents for a
c°py-
The Nobbiest Paper Out.
Is the “Acanthus,” Atlanta, Ga., the
only illustrated young folks' paper issued
regelarly at the South. Now in tho third
year of its publication. No family should
be without it. Contains beautiful stories,
pr#tty poems, sketches, essays, a letter
box, puzzle box, and open eye club, and
everything else to interest and instruct.
From twenty-five to thirty dollars worth
of prizes given each month. Send seventy
five cents for one year’s subscription, or
one dollar for sixteen months. Address
the Acanthus, or Annie M. Barnes, At
lanta. Ga.
Convict Captured,
On Tuesday la#* fcelow South Newport,
in this county an escaped penitentiary
convict, by the fpniv of Honor Timmons,
was capturtd by Messrs Josiah Thorpe
and Donald Mclntosh. Timmons escaped
from Coi T. J. Smith’s camp in Washing
ton county tometime since and has been
at large ever since. He rtag sent to the
penitentiary from Chatham. Mesars.
Thorpe oM Melntoeh brought him to the
city on Tuesday afternoon and on Wed
nesday they owned him over to Champ
ney’s Island and delivered him up to Capt.
W. T. Thorpe, who is in charge of the
CD it* ItJwd.
Advertising.
The man who says that he doesn't be
lieve in advertising is doing just what ho
pretends to displse. Ho hangs coats out
side of his door, or puts dry goods in the
window—that’s advertising. He has print
ed cards lying-on hfc eounter— that’s ad
vertising. He sends Out drummers through
the country or puts his name on his wagon
—that’s advertising. He labels his articles
or manufacturer’s—that's advertising. If
ha has lost his cow, he puts a written no
tice in the post-office, or toll’s his sister
in-law—and that’s advertising too. He has
his name in gilt letters over the door—and
that also is advertising. He paints his
shop green or red; or if a tailor, he wears
the latest style; or if a doctor he has his
boy call him out of church, in haste; if an
auctioneer, he bellows to attract the atten
tion of passers-by; if a heavy merchant, he
keeps a huge pile of boxes on the side
walk in front of his store —all for adver
tising. A man can’t do business without
advertising, and the question ts whether
to call to his aid the engine that moves
the world —the printing press—with its
thousrnds of messengers, working night
and day, or, rejecting these, go back to
the time when newspapers, telegraphs
and railroads wore unknown. “But ad
vertising costs money !” So does anything
else that is worth having, and those who
judiciously advertise—in the newspapers,
and not by means of clap-trap devices
which, while they may attract first, al
ways fail in the long run—are sure to reap
rich rewards. —Savannah News.
