The I-teld..you-sos are having a word '•bout the tax rate of Georgia remaining at five mills, the same as last year, and claiming all sorts of things as the reason it is no higher. But the real reason is the constitution forbids it being any higher; but they are trying to amend the constitution to a higher rate.

Inventions that are revolutioniz-- ing the commercial and industrial conditions of the country are com ing so raid'y that the wor'd stands amazed. One of the latest and greatest of these is the Burlingame Telegraphing Typewriter, which will work over any telegraph or telephone wire, any cable, or in connection with any wireless sys tem. T i- e sending of messages is done on a regular typewriter, thus enabling t' e operator to double his cai acity, and the receiving is auto mate, doing away entirely with one operator. With such a saving ap T parent, every telegraph company in the country, every railroad and telephone company, will want the Burlingame Telegraphing Type writer. It is as great au invention as the telephone, electric light, wire less telegraphy etc., and the stock in tbe Burlingame Company is being rapidly taken by shrewd investors.
