(Continued from Ist page.)
ad valorem taxation.
The whole hue and cry about “give
me something else first” has a good
poltical ring to it. but it is not easi
ly to be believed that either branch
of the legislature—either the blessed
or the damned in the recent fight—en
tertains the slightest serious idea of
tearing up the present tax system and
then adjourning with out whatever is
necessary to stop up the hole. Even
if the situation drags along to the
last seven or eight days that neces
sary provision will be made, though
it may become necessary to pitch ov
u board all the pending appropria
tion bills—and some of them, as well
as the bond issue schemes, are just
about bound now to meet that fate.
And, by the way, that kills off yet
another of the Walker platforms, for
;he flat declination of the present leg
ialature to enact any bonding amend
ments to the constitution—either for
road work or for the payment of cur
rent expenses, such as the unpaid pen
sions—will put the brakes on all such
possible successful agitation of the
kind for probably four years to come
That therefore takes Mi*. Wialker’s
antiroad bond plank out. Moreover
it will just about set aside the $75,-
0000,000 bonding proposition, to which
lie is so opposed—although he favors
a vigorous road construction program
—because of the fact that when a new
legislature comes in the agitation in
respect to road work is not going to
l e merely so much how many or how
few bonds can be issued to raise mon
ey for the Highway department to
use, but rather the agitation is going
tc be pitched on a fight for and
against an entire re-creation of the
Highway department itself. That
isn’t a campaign issue now, but It
will be two years from now.
This size-up of the situation leaves
in prospect as possible active cam
paign issues to be discussed between
Augusta 16th and September 13th, in
a whirlwind stumping tour, mostly
the question of how the state can be
nut on a little more sound footing;
how the increased demands for gov
ernmental operation are going to be
1 oth met and safeguarded. The ques
tion will be more one of business ac
complishments and future business
nerformance that it will be a fight of
fictitious and passion raising isms.

Chief Justice William H. Fish, of
the Supreme Court of Georgia has
made his announcement for re-elec
tion of that high office.
Judge Fish says:
To the people of Georgia:
I am candidate to succeed myself
as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of Georgia, subject to the Democratic
primary of September 13th.
My duties are such that I will not
be able to make an active campaign
for re-election. My entire time Is tak
en up by the requirements of my po
sition and therefore I have little time
to look after my own interests. I
will greatly appreciate your influence
and support, and assure you if re
elected I will endeavor to give you
the same faithful service that I have
rendered in the past. Being in per
feet health with my long experience
I feel that I can do more efficient
work than ever before.
I will regard another endorsement
from you as a crowning honor of a
life spent practically in your service
Respectfully.

Circumstances of a personal char

This step I take with regret, but
not in distrust of my friends, or the

I can but feebly express my thanks
ana deep appreciation to the count

I hope some worthy citizen who
stands for something and hears no

HOW TO SAFEGUARD
THE PUBLIC AGAINST
SPOILED CANNED FOOD
Food dealers may safeguard the
public against unwholesome foods by
making careful inspections of all lots
leceived before they are offerer! for
sale, says the Bureau of Chemistry
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. Although the food-can
ning industry is now so well develop
ed that most of the products put up
in this way are safe and good, the
safety of the consumer may be still
further increased if the retailer keeps
in mind the following suggestions:
Inspect every container when you
open the case.
No “swell,” “springer,” “flipper,” or
“leaker” should be accepted or sold
Ly you In glass, examine the cover
and the seam, inspect the contents
for signs of spoilage Do not tolerate
any spoiled product upon your shelv
es
If a lot shows many swells, reject
the lot. Do not take the responsibili
ty of sorting a bad lot of cans and
sellin e those apparently good.
You are entitled to demand a well
exhausted pack, every can showing
good vacuum, with clean and bright
metal.
Your customers are entitled to the
same protection. Even a trace of
swell should prevent the sale of a can
to any customer.
No spoiled can should ever be re
processed.
The removal of every container
showing a sign of swell will go a long
way toward preventing food poison
ing.
Rigorous withdrawal of all packs
showing extensive spoilage is lmpera
tive.
JUDGE WM. H. FISH
ANNOUNCES FOB RE-ELECTION
In another column appears the an
nouncement of Judge William H. Fish
as a candidate to succeed himself as
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
Judge Fish, is one of the best known
men in the state and is held in high
esteem by the people and the law
yers. He has been a member of the

rendered the state splendid service.
Judge Fish was born in Macon, Ga„
and at the age of four his family mov
ed to Macon county. He graduated at
the University of Georgia and took a
law course at the University of Vir
ginla.
In 1891 he was elected judge of the
superiore court of the Southwestern
circuit by the legislature to fill the un
expired term of the late Allen Fort
He was re-elected for the full term
without opposition the succeeding year
and in 1896 was again re-elected with
out opposition for the term of four
years. Prior to beginning his new
term on the bench, the membership
for the supreme court was increased
from three to six judges and Judge
Fish was nominated for one of the
new places.
He has been re-elected ever since
that time. In 1905 upon the death of
Chief Justice Simmons, he was ap
pointed Chief Justice by Governor
Joseph M. Terrell and was re-elect
ed for the full term of the following
year. Judge Fish has now been Chief
Justice for seventeen years, anfl has

WEATHER CONDITIONS
AND CROP REPORT
FORSTATETHISWEEK
Atlanta, Ga., Auguct., 2, 1922. —Very
warm weather prevailed during the
week ending August 1, with scattered
local rains that were excessive only
on a few widely separated localities
many counties are dry and need rain
On the whole the weather was very
favorable for most crops, especially
for cotton, which made good to ex
cellent growth during the week. Cot
ton is taking on fruit well, and the ac
dvities of the boll weevil have been
greatly checked by high temperatures
but the weevil is reported as doing
considerable damage in the sections
where there was abundant precipita
Lion. Cotton is beginning to open
rapidly over the southern two-thirds
of the State, and picking is advancing
favorably. Late corn needs rain in
many different portions of the State,
except that late corn is still being cul
tivated in the northern division, this
crop has mostly laid by, and fodder
pulling from early corn is pretty gen
eral. Curing tobacco made good
progress, quality good. Planting fall
white potatoes Is becoming active
with a good stand where up. Sweet
potatoes made excellent growth, and
e new crop is in local markets in
all sections. Pastures and hay crops
are deteriorating somewhat in coun
ties with difleiency in rainfall. Pea
nuts, sugar-cane, sorghum, and rice
made fair growth during the week.
Apples are in fair condition. Peach
shipments from the Cornelia district
are practically over. The pecan crop
is in poor condition. Fall gardens
are being: planted generally. Most are
now through laying by crops.

ALASKAN BOUNDARY
EXPLORER TELLS A
WONDERFUL TALE
Edmonton, Ala, Aug 1. —Discovery
of an almost tropical valley, with riv
ers of boiling water, many mineral
springs, abnormal plant growth and
abounding with game, in far Northern;
British Columbia, is reported by
Frank Perry, mining engineer of Van
couver, back after seventeen years
spent prospecting the weird valley
close to the Yukon border. The area
covered by Mr. Perry during his long
sojourn in the cold north country is
roughly 700 miles north and south
and 300 miles wide between the coas
tal range and the Lizard and Fort
Nelson Rivers.
The unusual sight of a heavy fog
in a winter attracted him to the val
ley and later exploration showed It
to be approximately 200 miles long
and about forty miles wide. Rivers of
hot water ran through it, fed by hull
dreds of hot springs, which bubbled
out of the ground in all directions,
the steam from these being condens
ed on rising forming the log which he
had first seen from the range crest.
Mr. Perry reported Le saw many
wild animals. These congregated for
the luxuriant vegetation, made pos
sible by the heat generated by the
springs, and i nthe valley were hun
dreds of mountain sheep and goats,
caribou moose, with bears and other
fur-bearing animals. The moose, al
most square from fat, were so tame
that he has been able to walk
amongst them and could almost touch
them, he said.
The tree growth in the valley was
abnormal. Mr. Perry states. The orcli
nary wild rose bushes were like trees
with stems as thick as a man’s fore
arm, so dense that it was impos
sible to force a way through while
the willows grew to tree sizes and ,it
was possible to walk along the branch
es. Some of the trunks of the latter
were fully a foot and half through;
vines grew to a length of about sixty
feet, and nettles and ferns were both
of unusual height.
JUST GOT OVER A COLD
Look out for kidney troubles and
backache. Colds overtax the kidneys
and often leave them weak. For weak
kidneys—well,read what a Waynesboro
man says:
A. F. Robinson, retired Ins. mail,
209 9th St., says: “Doan's Kidney
Pills have been my standard kidney
remedy for many years. Colds set
tling on my kidneys weakened them
and caused lame baick. At times I
could hardly get out of a chair with
out bracing my arms on the arms of
the chair in order to straighten. I
had terrible pains in the small of my
back. The kidney secretions passed
too often, getting me up at night and
they were scanty and burned in pasis
age . Doan’s Kidney Pills from John
ston’s Drug Store rid me of the back
ache and corrected the kidney action.
Doan’s have kept me enjoying good
health.”

ANNUOL REPORT OF
GEOR6IA TECR SHOWS
REMARKABLE WORK
Atlanta, Ga., July 31. —Despite lack
of sufficient legislative appropriations
Georgia Tech made greater progress
in the past year, in many ways than
during any other year of its history,
and prospects for further advance
ment of the institution are very en
couraging, according to the report of
operations of the school during 1921-
22, just submitted to Governor Thom
as W. Hardwick , by N. 3D. Harris
chairman of the local board of trus
tees.
According to the report of Mr. Har
ris, the money given to the institu
tion in the Greater Georgia Tech Cam
paign by the people of the state* be
cause they believe in the character of
education furnished by the school and
realize the need of such education in
this era of recovery and industrial de
velopment,” is in great measure re
sponsible for the bright prospects of
Tech in the future. More than $1,700
000 subscribed in the campaign
will be used for expansion
and this, together with sufficient
legislative appropriations for operat
ing expenses and equipment, will in
crease the efficiency of the future
years than at any time in the past
according to the report.
In the conclusion of his report Mr.
Harris deplores the necessity of the
tuition fees established when main
tenance funds allowed by the legisla
ture proved insufficient, and the neces
sity of turning away students be
cause of inadequate equipment. “No
other state educational institution re
quires the payment of tuition.” states
the report, “and it is a scarcely per
missible discrimination against this
species of education when the state
requires students to pay a full tui
tion to obtain the same.” According
to Mr. Harris a SIOO,OOO additional
appropriation will be required to do
away with the present tuition fees.*
The report also expresses regret
at the resignation of Dr. K. G. Math
eson, who has been president of
Tech for nearly twenty years and who
departed on April 1, to be head of
Drexel Institute in Philadelphia, and
it likewise gives high praise to N. P.
Pratt, one of the South’s foremost
fhjtfndo/tfs, who /acted \as president
until the election of M. L. Brittian.
The report states that "under Mr.
Pratt’s administration, with the help
of an able and excellent faculty, the
school has gone forward with the
same impluse exhibited in former
years.”
Mr. Pratt's report to Mr. Harris on
the school year is attached to the Te
port to Governor Hardwick. In it
he praises the work and devotion of
the faculty, the high standards of the
military department under Major A.
L. Pendleton, Jr., and the work of the
Y. M. C. A., in promoting high ideals
of Christian manhood among the stu
dents, and its work in mainining the
high moral standard of Tech.
The report further shows that the
enrollment in the past year was 1,-
971, in addition to the night school;
the summer school, and the rehabili
tation corps, whose enrollments bring
the total up to nearly 3,000. Expen
ditures of Tech in the past year
amounted to $396,727,74, and cash in
the bank on May 31 was $42,188.76.
All of this sum will be required to
pay the pro-rata salaries and meet
the expenditures of administrative
