This committee Is composed of the members of the commltteo on electric lights, telephones, and telegraphs, and of electric and other railways, with Councilman Pomeroy chairman of the former and Councilman Huddleston chairman of the latter. Tho resolution was Introduced by Councilman Terrell several weeks ago and at his request was referred to a committee where It may properly be considered. Under the railroad commission bill passed at the last session of the gen eral assembly, tho Commission Is given Jurisdiction nnd power over all street ear companies, telephone, and telegraph companies, nnd gns nnd electric light companies doing business* In .the state. The resolution provides that council shall ask the commission ,b> order the following rates for AthfrjjF 1 Street enr fares, eight for a quarter. Gas at 75 cents per thousand feet. Instead t/f 11.10 with a 10 per cent re duction for cash, as now. Telephono rates to be made on an as cending scale with a charge of $1.00 for each first thousand subscribers and 12 D2 cents for each succeeding thou sand nnd with a maximum over which the rate can not go. This would make the present rsto of the Southern Bell about $2.50. It Is argued that If the committee favors reductions In gas, atreet cat fares, and telephones, the resolution should be adopted as It stands, and there should he no quibbling over the exact terms, as the railroad commission will make n thorough Investigation of the technical details of rates, Incomes, and profits. “I Intend to see the resolution through," states Councilman Terrell, "and I am sure council will pass It, nnd the railroad commission will grant the request, backed up as It Is by the support of the whole city."

PAINT THE BEST PAINT for all purposes at the GEORGIA PAINT A GLASS CO., .40 Peachtree Street. _he charge was made that an ordl nance by Alderman Key, regulating the use of the bond money, was the cause of the trouble. Alderman Key had a special session of council called, at which he turned forth several volleys of his wrath on the waterworks department for laying tho blame on him. and he proposed to demonstrate that there wa* no ne cessity for the water being muddy. A committee was appointed, with the al derman ns chairman, 4nd this commit tee ordered the pressure on the pumps lnrreased, with the result that In less thnn a week the water waa clear again. Since that time the pressure on the pumps ha* been above the guarantee, and the water In the reservoir has steadily risen until It Is now within less than a foot ot Its maximum possi ble depth. The general manager cited from the records that he had notified the water board of the Impending dan ger and had Informed the board that It could be averted by Increasing the pressure on th* pump*. As soon as the main Is completed t« Caseys Hill the pressure will be brought back from 125 to 110 pounds. The distance of the .main from the river to Caseys lllll Is 6.500 feet. The water can run from Caseys Hill ti> the reservoir by the force of gravita tion, and so there Is no especial hnsto about completing the main from the hill to the reservoir, a distance of mpre than 12,000 feat.

Oa, Sept. 21.—Hon. Charles H. Brand, Judge of the western circuit, passed through Commerce last evening en route to his home In Athens, Ga, after having completed a very busy session of superior court at Homer this week. A number of land cases and damage suits have been tried. Judge Brand,-at the opening of court last Monday morning, delivered one of hla ' usual clear charges to ths grand Jury and was the recipient of many congratula tions. Among other things mentioned In Judge Brand’s charge was the pro hibition law recently enacted by the Georgia legislature. This law waa commended In the highest terms pos sible by Judge Brand, who openly de clared that a large number of the de fendants who come before him for trial on the criminal side of the docket were tried for crime* committed while under the Influence of liquor. Judge Brand further declared that a very large per cent of criminals were either "plstol-toters," gamblers or “blind tigers,” and he took occasion to warn these three class** of defend ants of his intention to punlah them more severely In the future than he has ever done. NATIONAL TEACHERS' HOME PLANNED FOR MONTEAGLE. Special to The Georgian. Monteagle, Tenn, Sept. 21.—A move, ment haa been launched here for the founding and endowment of a national teachers' home.

"Our company alone 1* losing thou sands ,f dollars dally as the result of this delay.” Mr. Morey declared to a Hsarst News Service reporter, “and thjs is also true of other brokerage houses. It can be safely said that Produce Exchange members have tost many millions of dollars since the be ginning of the strike." “Any claims by either company that there is no delay In sending or re ceiving messages are absolutely false,” declared Mr. Morey. "Both the West ern Union and Postal companies are giving miserable service and existing conditions cost ths members of the Produce Exchange many thousands of dollars a day. "Conditions are the same everywhere and millions of dollars have been lost since the beginning of the strike. The companies are trying to make the pub lic believe that conditions are normal, but 1 ran state positively that this la untrue. The small force Is Incapable of handling the business and It now takee two hours to sand a message which be fore the strike could be sent In two minutes.” AVOID SUBSTITUTES—GET WHAT YOU ASK FOR.
