C. E. Randall made application at the
last mooting of cotfhcil for permission to
conduct Ilia business of a rotall near-
beer dealer, signing hlmsslf "a* a vet
eran." Th® committee reported that his
license be granted ujion the payment of
the tax of IKK). Council refused to ac
cept tha eommlttee’a report, however, and
after revoking It. declined to Issue a li
cense to the petitioner. The position of
council. aa stated by Alderman Kail. Is
that no license should b® glvep to any
veteran without tb« full payment of tha
tax. He said that, despite the decision of
the court of Hppcnts, ho did r.ut think tho
veterans should he accorded free licenses
for the sale of near-beer. Mr. Hall's
argument was unanimously surtalned by
council.
This action Indicates thut no peraon
will, aa a veteran, procuto u license for
the sale of tiear-b«rr from the Macon
council, hut must pay the same tax aa
any other dealer.
A petition from reildenta of the Vlne-
vllle branch section of the city, request
ing council to prohibit tho sale oi near-
beer In that specific teriltory. was refer
red to the police committee. Aa iwo un-
pllcatlona from that section have already
been denied. It Is not likely that the sale
of near-beer In the vicinity of Wesleyan
College and els\whe.e In the Vlnevllle
residential section will ba allowed.

LARGE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
AND OFFICE BUILDING IN
8IGHT.
The smoker given by the Macon
Chamber of Commerce last night
was largely attended, and several
good speeches wero made, embodying
suggestions for the promotion of
Macon's Interests. President J. F.
Heard presided, and eliminated
formality In the following language:
’As president of the Chamber of
Commerce, our secretary said I must
be here to start the smoker off right.
Knowing you gentlemen as I do, I
am certain when It comes to eating
and smoking and drinking, you do
not need anybody to start you off.
You may need somebody to stop
you.
“Haring only recently been elect-
oil president of this worthy organlza-
4Jon, I am not prepared to tell you
what we have done, and as I must
say something to get the smoker
started off. I'll tell you a few things
we are going to do.
* “Our secretary called my atten
tion to a little talk of Mr. Forbes,
^president of tho Commercial Club
of Montgomery, In which Mr. Forbes
styled tho aldermnnlc hoard as the
city fathers, nnd the commercial
club as the city mothers. While
the word ''mother* touches the ten-
derest chord in my whole heart, and
makes my whole being ready to
bend to a mother's beck and call, I
am unwilling to accept that appel-
atlon for this body of my fellow clt-
Isens. The work that lies before us
Is not woman's work.
“There Is an ominous task for us
to perform. The accumulations of
generations of duties not done lay
now at our doors. Our fathers have
Issued bonds for us to pay along
this line, and they are now due with
Interest, simple and compound. Du 7
ties for us to perform are too in
numerable for me to attempt to re
call on this occasion, so I’ll mention
only a few.
“Macon Is most favorably situated
geographically. There Is not a sister
city in this “goodly” land of ours
■surrounded hy bitter agricultural
lands than this grand old town of * urrpul
ours.
“With tho fertile lands surround
ing her, populated as they are, hy
tho bravest, truest, and most Intel
ligent farmers from Maine to Texas,
thero Is no reason why Macon, CJa.,
should not bo one of the most pros
perous cities In this great United
States. In addition to these advan
ces, wo are most admirably sit
uated—on both sides of tho Ocmul-
geo river, right at the head of nav
igation—what n wonderful situa
tion. Still further, wo have tho
tlnpst public roads and public schools
south of Mason and Dixon’s line.
“Now, Just a few things wo ex
pect to do; we can do; we must do.
ed In order to realize what can be ac
complished for the good of every* citi
zen In this community.
“There should be an active co-oper
ation between the city and the county
officials In furthering public improve
ments that should be undertaken and
carried out, and If the proper authori-
te* will carry Into effect the public
improvements that have long been de
layed, and that are essential to the
growth of this community, they, will
realize In a very short period of years
more from the Increase of taxable val
ues than the outlay and sharing in this
prosperity will likewise be the citizens
of the community.
“The public Improvements under
taken during my administration In
1894, which Involved an outlay of le.is
than $150,000, ha» led up to an In
crease of taxable valye fl of that year
from $14,600,000 to twenty-one and
three-fourths millions in the present
year.
"If tho city had not undertaken those
public Improvements at that time, no
such Increase would likely have re
sulted and every year since then con
stant developments have resulted
which can bo traced, directly, to tlikt
expenditure.
“The population of our city has kept
pace with the Increase of values and
It Is a conservative prediction to gay
that within ten years our present pop
ulation will Increase up to 76,000 to
$100.000—thero Is iiiorc than a proba
bility of this being accomplished if
tho proper efforts are made tD do so.
The natural growth of the surrounding
territory to Macon, whlcl* has been
keeping nice with our oven, will lead
up to this result. '•*
“Fifteen years ago the ground value
in oertuin business sections woulo
have been considered high at $500 per.
front foot, whereas today these same
locations can not ho purchased at less
than $1,000 per front foot. In the resi
dent section, values that were based
on $35 and $40 per front foot In 1894
are now held at from $100 to $110.
“Population ha 8 much to do with the
Increase of values nnd tho percentage
of Increase of population will witness
a great Increoso In valuations. In
1896 there were not many more than
fifteen men in Macon who were rated
In excess of $100,000 nnd today there
are over alxty whose rating Is from
$100,000 upwards to a million—the*
combined wealth of theac parties would
exceed fifteen millions.
“There Is no public or private improve
ment or the financing of any local mat
ter. that could not be accomplished by
these gwrtles with byt little aid from out
side source*. It has always been my Idea
that baokol by the agricultural section
thsLt surrounds us, the proper develop
ment of manufacturing Interests with .»
natural increase—without a spastnod:*!
one—would give Macon a greater locmfil
In growth and population than any
other city In tho south.
“From every standpoint that ono can
take a view—Its trade opportunities, cli
matic. social and educational advantages
-substantiates this fact and could costly
jhsssuftm&'xssu &
rslricnb.aoctloj. will constancy lend up
to Increase of values and no safer it
more profitable Investment could be made
than a judlciot 4 purchase of real estate.
“Tho co-operation ot the city and the
county In the Improvement of the atresia
nnd public hlghwuys and tho ppe.Vng
thereby of territory now Inaccsslblc. will
have a tendency to bring Qur pomilatl.'m
closer together—the congestion of wnlctt
will also lead up to constantly increasing
values.
“It Is the present Intention of a few
E srtlcs to organise Immediately after the
cglnnlng of the i new year a financial
corporation with a capitalization of from
$250,000 to 1500.000. Which will be tak>n
