( Itntliiiin Delegation at Work cm
the Tax Commianioii Measure— May
Hr Taken Ip at One*—\n Impor
tant Leant Bill Passed by- tlie
House.
Atlanta. Dee. s.—The Senate knocked all
the i!fe out of -Mr. McDonough's anti-pool
room bill (his looming. Ten days ago
When the bill met an adverse fate there
was quite a hubbub among some of the
senators who thought it a great reflection
upon the upper branch of the Georgia as
sembly. that a measure adverse to the
■‘sporty” citizen should meet defeat there.
In deference to this outcry the bill was
reconsidered and there was every indica
tion that ii would be passed in the main
tenance of the tone of the Senate, and as
a rebuke to the "sports.” But after to
day's action the sports will have the laugh
on their side, another instance of the old
adage that they laugh best who laugh last.
Senator Bill Clifton, known as the old
"war horse.” had the bill brought up this
morning. Senator Grovenstein tried to
keep it on the table on account of the slim
attendance, fearing the result, if a vote
was taken with a long absentee list. This
situation was probably recognized by the
opponents of the bill as their golden op
portunity, and they prevailed in the con
test. When the vote was taken it stood
10 to 14. So the bill was killed outright,
as a motion will not be in order for a re
consideration to-morrow since it had al
ready been reconsidered once. Senator
Grovenstein was much disappointed at
the result. He championed the bill in
good faith and did all he could to pass It.
Mr. La Roche was the only member of
the Chatham delegation In the House this
morning. Messrs. McDonough and McMil
lan are expected to-morrow. When they
arrive there will be a conference on the
tax commission bill. Mr. Laßoehe Is un.
quallfledly In favor of the passage of the
repealing bill. So is Mr. McDonough, and
Mr. McMillan is also believed to have de
cided views on the same line.
Senator Grovenstein said to the Morn
ing News representative this afternoon
that he would be guided entirely by the
position of the representatives. If they
stand together in favor of the passage
of the bill, regardless of any possible of
ficial action in opposition by the City
Council, he will advocate the passage of
the bill in the Senate. The same objec
tion is urged to the tax assessors here, as
against the other commissions, that is.
that this board should be subject lo Coun
cil and not co-ordinate with that body. In
case of a division In the House delegation,
which does not, however, seem likely,
Senator Grovenstein says he will inves
tigate personally and act as his own judg
ment dictates.
The Senate to-day passed the bill by
Morris of Cobb, requiring judges of su
perior and city courts to decide motions
within thirty days in counties of 30,000,
and ninety days in cqpnties of 50,000, un
der penalty of impeachment. This is re
garded by lawyers as one of the most im
portant changes in court proceedings that
has been made in a long time.
Gov. Candler sent to the Senate this
morning the nominations of J. G. Barks
to be judge of the City Court of Dawson
and W. J. Youmans to be solicitor of the
same court. After the nominations had
be<fn confirmed, the Governor sent word
In that he wished the nominations held
up for a time, and the Senate had to
reconsider Us action to grant this request,
the nominations now being in the pigeon
hole.
This incident caused a good deal of
gossip about the capitol. A hill has been
recently passed changing the County
Court of Terrell county to a City Court
for Dawson. M. C. Edwards was judge
of the County Court which was abolished
and was an applicant for Judge of the
new City Court. He wanted an opportuni
ty to be heard by the Governor before
final action was taken, and even though
it involved a reconsideration of the mes
sage sent into the Senate, the Governor
granted him this opportunity. Gov. Can
dler this afternoon made a statement
which indicates that the appointment mes
sage was sent in before he ordered it to
be, by error fin the secretary’s office, this
premature action being the cause of the
hasty request for postponement by ihe
Senate. ,

Atlanta, Dee. s.—Most of to-day's session
in the House was devoted to consideration
of the general tax act reported by Chair
man Freeman of the ways and means com
mittee.
Before this was taken up, however. Mr.
Lane of Sumter made an effort to save
his bill which cuts the salaries of the rail
road commissioners. He asked that it be
moved up on the list of special orders. It
had been set for the last day of the session,
which means its defeat for the year, hut
the request was not granted. Mr. Lane
has not given up the fight, however, but
will renew his request at the proper time,
and is confident that he will succeed.
The principal features of the tax act
are an increase in the circus tax to 31,000
a day, in counties of 20,000 people, and a
tax of S2OO each upon all dealers in bicy
cles.
The tax on mercantile agencies is raised
from SSO to S2OO, while the whisky tax is
raised from $l5O to S2OO. A tax of s}oo
is imposed upon all parks where foot ball
or base ball is played for an admission fee.
and $5 tax is levied upon every merchant
who handle* cigarettes.
The gypsies who rove the state are to
be taxed $25 for every county in which
they trade horses and tell fortunes.
Detective! are to be taxed SSO, and dress
ed beef agencies S2OO.
It is estimated that the new tax bill
will raise in the neighborhood of $25,000
more in special taxes than last year's act.
The House held a session to-night for the
consideration of the Brandon hills, which
put all pensioners upon an indigent basis,
requiring them to make oath of their in
ability to make a living for themselves,
before they can claim the state's bounty.
Ex-Chief Justice Bleckley has rendered an
opinion that this restriction of the pension
fund would be constitutional. The point
has been raised that it would not be con
stitutional in the invalid class, at least.
SUING FiittF. M’CAXDLESS.
Ex-State Chemist Payne Trying to
llecover n Laboratory.
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. s.—The controversy
between ex-State Chemist George F.
Payne and Commissioner of Agriculture
Stevens, has got into the courts.
When Dr. Payne was decapitated by
Commissioner Stevens he entered a claim
for the laboratory located in the state cap
itol as his personal property, and one
night succeeded in removing part of it be
fore Mr. Stevens knew what was up. Af
ter several days of disputation Commis
sioner Stevens asked that a legislative
committee be appointed to look into the
claims of Dr. Payne and this committee
was appointed.
When it undertook the task, however.
Dr. Payne declined to submit any state
ment or evidence, and hts attorney went
into court with a suit against Prof. J. M. ■
McCandless, Ihe present state chemist,
for possession of the laboratory. Prof.
McCandless of course had nothing to do
with the controversy as he was put in
charge by Commissioner Stevens. The
latter is perfectly willing to let Dr. Payne
have anything that is his. but in view of
certain facts and circumstances he wants
him to show a title to what he claims.
A report current several days ago at
the capitol was that the legislative com
mittee had made some discoveries not al
together creditable to ex-Chemist Payne.
This committee will go ahead with its in
vestigations regardless of the appeal to
the courts. Payne has also had a bill in
troduced in the House to pay him $2,000
for the laboratory.
THE STRAIGHT HAIRED GIRL.
Advice to tlie Noting Man Who I*
Sold to He Inclined Toward Mat
rimony.
From the New York Sun.
Someone ot the oracles whose mission
is to advise young women how to select a
husband, and to warn young men qgainst
feminine wiles, has recently set up anew
guide post for masculine wayfarers on the
roud to matrimony.
"Marry a girl with straight hair." says
the oracle. chances are that her ways
are as straight as her locks, while the
heart of the curly headed girl is as full of
twists and quirks as her hair.”
The theory is expounded at some length.
If all men will hut be guided by this sibyl
ine voice, the day of the stralghl-haired
girl is close at hand. She needs compensa
tion. For years she has fought an unequal
fight against her sister of the curly locks,
and her temper has been worn threadbare
all on account of her hair. What choice
has a straight-haired girl on a windy day.
Her hair is straggling in frantic wisps over
her collar and her ears. She looks untidy,
disreputable; and ali the time Ihe curly
haired girl is becoming more and more be
witching. Her stray locks crisp and curl
and flutter Huffily round her face, and she
smiles in serene consciousness that the
wind Is quite powerless against her. When
rainy days come the siraight-haired girl
sighs dolefully, and looks limp and deject
ed, in spite of swell clothes. Hot days have
ihe same depressing effect upon her hair
and spirits. Sea bathing has no charms for
her. Even golf can't be lo her what it is
to the champion with curly hair. But, if
straight hair is to be a certificate of eligi
bility for matrimony, there will be bulr*
for all these wounds.
