Let Legislature Make
New Tax Law, Pro
vide Appropria
tions, Quit!
(Special to the Banner.)
Atlanta, June 23.—"If this legisla
ture does what it ought to do," re
marked an old time Georgia politi
cian in tbe Kimball lobby today, “it
will pass the necessary tax and ap
propriations bills, reform the state's
financial system, appoint a commit
tee to make a report oa the Western
and Atlantic Railroad and go home
We've got laws enough now, but no
body ever heard of a legislature doing
just what it ought to do, so we will
have to anticipate the usual bunch of
laws good bad and indifferent ordi
uarily turned out at the fifty day ses
sion."
There has long been in the minds of
the public generally a wide difference
between what the legislate re does and
what it ought to do. While the pres
ent legislature has been prouounced
by many one of the best and strong
est that has assembled in Georgia in
the last decade, there is no reason to
believe that in respect to its achieve
ments. it will differ materially from
any of those which have preceded it.
The fact that it is comparatively a
new legislature, containing fewer old
members than any general assembly
ill the last 10 years, has encouraged
the advocates of all sorts of legisla
tion to redouble their efforts to secure
final enactment. As a result, there
will he more subjects of legislation
proposed at this session perhaps than
in any legislature since the war.
One of the most important and In
teresting features is that this legis
lature will be more free from faction
nl politics than any that has assent
hied since 1006. In its membership
the old Iloke Smith-Joe Brown line of
demarkation has practically disap
peared, and for that reason if for no
other, it is believed it will make a
splendid working body.
The legislature will assemble on
Wednesday, June 25, at 10 o'clock,
when the house will be called to order
by Clerk Jno. T. Boifeuillet of the old
house, and the senate will be started
Into business by secretary Chas. S.
Northern. The next thing in ordef
will be the election of presiding offi
cers and as soon as these are chosen
each body will notify the other and
both will notify the Governor that
they are ready for business.
The speakership of the house is ap
parently no longer in any doubt. It
seems to be generally conceded that
Hon. W. H. Burwen of Hancock, will
be overwhelmingly elected. Although
representatives R. N. Hardeman, of
Jefferson, and J. B. Sheppard, of Sum
ter, appear still to be making a fight
for the place, almost everybody seems
to have conceded it to Burwell, and
some have even gone so far as to
wager that his name will be the only
one placed in nomination. Mr. Bolt-
feuillet will be re-elected clerk of the
house and the contest for minor posi
tions, such as door keeper and mes
senger, will he settled in very^ short
order.
There is still grave doubt, it Is said,
as to t'he outcofne of the race for the
presidency of the senate. Hon. Ran
dolph Anderson of Chatham, who has
opened his headquarters at the Kim
ball House, has shown his supporters.
It is said. 2S written pledges of sup
port. Hon. Jno. T. AJIen, of Milledge-
vifle, is claiming also about this num
ber of votes. As a matter of fact, gos
sip has it that a number of the sen
ators have not pledged themselves at
all. and are waiting up to the last
minute, possibly in the hope of land
Ing on the soft seat in the band wa
gon.
Speaking of his 28 votes, Mr. Ander
son declared today that every one of
those signatures would he ratified on
the roll call.
“The list is signed by 28 members
of the senate,’’ he said, “and signed
by them in person. I have every con
fidence in the good faith of every gen
tlemen who has thus given me writ
ten assurance of support; and as I
need only 23 votes and have 28 pledg
ed in writing, I will, if I live, be pres
ident of the next Benate."
Mr. Allen has opened his headquar
ters in rooms 208 and 210 of the Kim
ball. He smilingly tells his friends
that everything is all right; that he
has enough promised to elect him,
and that ihe is confident of success on
Wednesday.
Mr. Allen’s son, Marion, who re
ceived his diploma at the State Uni
versity on Wednesday, is here in
charge of his father’s headquarters.
He is heartily enjoying his first work
upon leaving college and says he can
not see it In any other light but that
his father is going to win.
Politicians around the lobby who
usually know bow things stand,

frankly admit they are puzzled over
this race. One day a man will state
he believes Anderson is going to win
and the next day it looks to him like
Allen. Some of the senators them
selves appear to be in the same quan
dary, and while many of them have
undoubtedly given pledges to one or
tile other of the candidates, there are
.seme of them who have important
matters to come up and they are by
no means anx'ous to be found on the
losing side.
The organization of the house and
senate will he completed before noon
on Wednesday, and about the only
other thing that will be done will be
the reading of Governor Joseph M
Brown’s final message (lovernor
Brown has finished the preparation
of his message and this i nderstood
that Governor-elect .Ino. M. Slaton ha»
also completed his inaugural address.
This, however, will not be delivered
until Saturday, June 28, when the new
governor takes the oath of office.
While preliminary organization will
be completed on Wednesday, the act
ual organization to get in shape foi
business will require from a week te
10 days longer, considering past pre
cedence. It usually takes about tbi»
time for the presiding officers to ar
range their committees and make
committees have been named. There
fore, the first week of the session
will be an exceedingly quiet one with
the inauguration as the central fea*
ture.
As usual, it is expected the legis
lature will take a holiday on the 4th
of July, and it is not unlikely that the
committees will be announced imme
dlately following chat day.
When the legislature discovers, as it
soon will, that it is practically without
rooms in the capltol for the meeting
of its standing committees, it will
probably begin to consider seriously
the question of an annex to the state
capitol. When the present capitol
was built, the entire upper floor was
devoted to legislative committee
rooms. Now the state departments,
new and old, have so encroached upon
these rooms that there is scarcely one
of them left.
The state game warden has located
his offices in the room formerly used
by the general appropriations commit
tee of the house. The Prison Com
mission has taken the room formerly
used by the committee on agriculture,
The department of commerce and la
bor Is occupying the rooms once used
by the committees on education, sani*
tat ion and hygiene. The work of
compiling Georgia records is now be
ing conducted in the general judiciary
room, and the departments of geology
and entomology* have long sinre
spread out over committee rooms for

Down in Mind Unable to Work,
and What Helped Her.
The Board of Directors of the
Young Women’s Christian Associa
tion had a very interesting meeting
on Saturday afternoon.
The subject of vital interest at this
time is the securing of a physical di
rector for th * gmynasium department
uhich is such an important, as well
as attractive feature of the work.
This department has never grown
to any size hertofore in our city on
account of cramped conditions and
sometim s having no place at all in
which to carry on its work, but now
as the athletic building is nearing com
pit tion tin* board feels the need of
st curing the very best physical direc
tor available.
Several applications are under con
sideration. The Athens association
has a high standard which they are
living up to and are unwilling in the
department as well as in others to
stop short of the very b»»st.
Mrs. E. B. Hudson, formerly Miss
Gertrude E. Ford, who was a most
successful instructor of gymnastics
&nd a graduate from tin* Sargent In
stitute. herself, i s the able chairman
of this department and many st* ps
nr** being taken to build it up to the
very highest and best.
As it will be impossible to secure
the regular physical director for the
summer temporary provision will be
mad* in order that the swimming
classes may he started as soon as the
building is completed.
The Athens association wishes to
make this building the source of joy
to all.
The fine gymnasium hall will serve
as a convenient sized auditorium for
private and public us*. It will be the
place for social gatherings for the
young people.
A cordial invitation is extended to
all who wish to go through this build
ing. As soon as it is perfected a
formal opening will be announced.
Notice to Builders
Sealed proposals will be received
by the undersigned until noon, city
time, of June 28th, for furnishing all
material and labor necessary to com
pute the additions and improvements
to Oconee St. School Building. Plans
and specifications can be had by ap

FOR GOVERNOR OF ARKANSAS.
Summit Point, W. Va.—Mis. Anna
Belle Hmev, of this place, says: “I suf
fered for 15 years with an awful pain in
my right side, caused from womanly-
trouble, and doctored lots tor it, but with
out success, i suffered very much,
that I became dow n in mind, and as help
less as a baby. 1 was in Ihe worst kind
of shape. Was unable to do any work.
I began taking Cardui, the womar’s
tonic, and cot relief from the very first
dose. By the tune 1 had taken 12 bot
tles, my health was completely restored.
I am now 48 years years old, out feel as
good as 1 did when only 16.
Cardui certainly saved me from losing
my mind, and I feel it my duty to speak
in its favor. I wish I had some power
over poor, suffering women, and could
make them know the good it would do
them.”
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, it will certainly be
worth your while to give Cardui a trial.
It has been helping weak women for
more than 50 years, and will help you,
too.
Try Cardui. Your druggist sells it
