Tbe attending physician announced
that no bones were broken but the
parties are in serious condition,
though their injuries are not thought
to be fatal.
Both were cut and bruised about the
head and body. Mr. McDaniel was
between the electric light plant and
the oil mill, which are close to ths
railroad tracks and he was going at a
good speed and his view from the
train was cut off by the buildings. The
train was also coming around the
curve. The front wheels of the auto
got half way between the rails at the
time the engine struck it. Both par
ties were knocked from the car and
got up from the ground and started
towards town.

Washington, D. C., Sept. 3.—A stamp
tax on soft drinks as well as beer and
patent medicines is contemplated by
members of tbe . House Ways and
Means Committee, which is preparing
an emergency Internal revenue bill to
offset treasury losses due to curtail
ment of Imports. It la urged that soft
drinks are as much luxuries as wines
or beer and that an equitable distribu
tion of the tax burden among all con
sumers would bo accomplished by this
plan.
Another suggestion is a stamp tax
of 5 or 10 cents on railroad tickets
and admission to theatres, baseball
parks and other licensed amusements.

The committee has not yet deter
mined upon complete taxation plan,
but proposes to hasten Us delibera
tions so that a bill may be introduced
soon after President Wilson addresses
congress on the subject, which prob
ably will be immediately upon his re
turn from New Hampshire. Adminis
tration leaders are impressed with the
necessity of quick action In order to
disturb conditions as little as possi
ble.
Democrats of the senate will discuss
the emergency In a party caucus to be
called later this week.
A doubling of the present tax on
beer, It is estimated by treasury ex
perts, would produce 865,000,000. Some
committee members, however, feel
that taxation of commodities other
than beer and patent medicines
would cause less popular friction.
Among the committee Democrats
there has been some opposition to any
war tax at all at this session, the con
tention being that there Is plenty of
available money for present needs.

agreed to accept a federal Judgshlp,
to bo given as soon an Hardwick can
gain the ear of President Wilson, and
would drop out. This was soon veri
fied, for Mr. Felder, his form visibly
agitated, ronclied tho platform and
withdrew him name. He said he was
not willing to further Jeopardize the
interest of “progressive Democracy”
by remaining longer in the fight. He

of Mr. Hardwick. And Immediately
the newspaper men turned to their
telegraph operators and cried ““Flash!
Hardwick Wins!” In another moment
the extras in half a dozen cities were
telling tho news on tho streets. It
was all over.
Not all perhaps. There are two
things that seem to be agreed on by
the public. One Is that there shall be
no more conventions like this, and an
other that the Macon farce made
split In Georgia Democracy which will
be many years in healing. The Slaton
people aro pointing out that never for
a moment wns there n semblance
fair play; that Chairman Ucagan per
slstcntly refused to recognize any mo

openly said he would entertain no
motion to adjourn that did not come
from Hardwick men. The convention
was Hindu up to crush Slaton, Us offi

Governor Slaton has had no com

his term as governor quietly and hon

young man, and there are many othor
primaries still to be held in Georgia.
It Is distinctly evident, in tho state
press and among the people, that John

ANOTHER NEW BUNGALOW-COT
TAGE FOR EMERSON DARK.
Today work started on another
bungalow In Emerson Park and an
other block was sold on which a nice
little home will be built at a very
early date. Every home that Is built
will enhance tho value of every
block and those who buy now at the
present prices will be the winners.
With the prices of food stuff going
up. and the prospects are it will go
higher, the sensible thing to do now
is to get a piece of ground large
enough *to raise vegetables, sugar
cane, fruit, poultry and other things
to eat, at the same time be putting
your money In a home to be all your
own. It Is the wise thing to do and
the aonalble thing to do. Three acrej
of land is sufficient to produce
enough of those things for your fam
ily and you can cultivate It between
work hours while you are rest*
ing. If you haven’t seen the block i
in Emerson Park you ahould do so
at once. The prlco will not always
be 8600 for a whole block big enough
to rnako 20 city lots; the price wilt go
higher as the property Improves. Get
