epruna at the first session and pushed
to a conclusion before th* year haa
fairly reached Ita pace.
Thera la that areat quaallon of city
extension, which Iho council of 1907
very kindly and considerately referred
to the council of 1*41. The committee
that worked for month* perfecltna this

It la extremely unlikely that the

will be a casus belli—or word* to that

Thle commlaelon will lake up, a* well
aa other mailer*, th* abolition of de
partmental boards and utlier board
matter*, not to mention the possibility
of government by commission, which
several councilman are said to look
upon with favorable eye*.
Council of 1147 has managsd so far
to avoid voting on the resolution by
Councilman Huddleston, providing for
the erection of n public comfort build

royal straight flush of Atlanta's needs,
■mil which ha furthermore say* he will

ty hospital I* to be wished by nearly
everybody. Councilman Longlno la the
man behind this particular gun.
Tha ra-pavlng of Marlatta street with
Belgian block* ha* not yet been sprung.
Repeve Marietta Street.
Councilman-elect W. T. Winn, of the
Fifth ward, says he Is going to Intro
duce a resolution at th* first session
of th* council of t»4l—which, by th#
way. will be th* night of the first Mon
day In January—providing for the re
paving of this street for about two
miles, and he think* the council will
adopt It with little dissension. He
has assurances that the county com
missioners will aid In the work.
Th# erection of the new Marietta
street school Is an assured fact. It
la so assured that th* lot on which It
will stand has already been purchased
and tentative plana have been drawn.
Also th* erection of a branch Car
negie library ha* been assured,
though It ha* not quit* reached th#
stage that th* achool ha*. Still, Car
negie ha* donated the money, and the
city haa practically pledged Itself to
furnish th* sit*. Th* time and th*
place and the money will probably
meet In January.
Alderman Ciirtla gives nolle* of a

Pleasure Park Plan.
The conversion of Piedmont Park Into
a strictly pleasure park, almllar to
Grant Park, has been discussed off and
on for the entire year, and will proba
bly be decided one way or the other
next year. Everybody has a different
opinion from everybody elae. and no-
body has any license to say what coun
cil will or will not do.
The building of the North avenue
underpass waa first suggested by Mayor
Joyner, and haa been vigorously pushed
by Alderman Beutell. of the Fifth ward,
assisted by tha mayor. It wilt be built
next year No question mark* are
necessary.
The merging of the offlce* of commis
sioner of public work* and city engi
neer haa been suggested and will ba
suggested again next year. It ha* a de
cided Interrogation-pointed figure, how.
ever.
Th* council Is waking up to th* fact
that the city'* contracts are about th*
moat easily broken affairs that one
can think of. When a contractor real
ly futfllls a contract with the city It la
an extremely rare occasion and one
worth the memory.
The city never enforces contracts. A
man bids to do a certain bit of work
In a cartaln time. He bids high be
muse of this time limit and the danger
that he may not complete It within that
time, anil SO he figures on th* possi
bility of paying n certain nmount of
forfeiture In th* bid. He bids high, too,

Inspector, whoa* duty It shall ba to see
that the gas,and electric light meter*
are read proparly. Thla ordinance will
probably be acted upon by the council
of 1*41.
Somebody Is going to make a fight
in council to out th* "kibosh” on the
"locker'' club*, which, according to re
ports, are going to spring up over night
after January 1 like th* proverbial
mushrooms. It Is not likely that there
will be many of these ctube, If any. and
It le not unlikely that the court* will
have the flnnl settlement of the ques
tion.
8omt Knotty Problems.
Taking It up one way and down the
other, th# council of 1909 will have

that hla hid was on an estimate of
material at tha then high coat. If he
haa to wait tW'P months or six months,
It doesn't make much difference. Ma
terial la bound to go down sometimes.
The contractor runs six or eight
months over hla time limit. Informs
council that It rained considerable, the
railroads were slow In delivering the
material, labor wa* scarce, and coun
cil. loalng sight of the fact that the
city paid extra to the contractor be
cause of then* possibilities, lets him off
with the entire forfeiture. This la In
variable.
Will Claim Forfaits.
Mayor Joyner, sny* moat positively
he will put a stop to this.
"In my message lo council In Jan
uary,” he stata*. *'I sh'all speak of this
and I will state positively then, and I
state positively now, that I will not
approve a single act of council In al
lowing contractor* to break thelr.eon
problema to solve.
Some of the thing* which the people
want and ahould have will be granted
them. The consummation of all tha
things mentioned ta not to be expected
end hardly to b* desired, but many of
the more Important matters will, no
uoubt. successfully extricate them
selves from the labyrlnthlnlc max* of
technicalities which will surround
them and will com* out. Into tha open
for a fair, free flght.
Getting a good thing passed la easy
enough In council If It ever gels to a
Thursday, morning, “and I want
maka eom* so 1 can blr* a lawyer. I
haven't a cent In the world, and am
In Jail on Thanksgiving day with my
throat rut. But It might be worse,
and I’m thankful that 1 am not dead.”
Then Enoch Sanders said he felt
tired, and he slowly made his way In
to his cell and reclined on his cot.
"You can go upstairs, Enoch. If you
want to." kindly said Sheriff Morris.
"There s a new mattress up there and
more light."
"Thle II do, sheriff, thank you."
And Enoch Sander* sighed.
A* Gloomy as Ibsen.
The story of Enoch Sander* and
the affray at Lithonla Is n tale aa

cheerful feature.

"I don't recollect aa I ever said any

married her,” he added, thougHtfull.v.
But would ho have married If they
had all been willing? He "didn't

"I always done everything for her.”
he said with sadness and Just a
touch of bitterness In his voice. "I
S ave nor everything I could. I sent

much. It wne nil anybody could do.
"Every thing went all right." he said,
“until 1 got afraid they wasn't doing
things that was all right. Then w#

Didn't Know Who Did It.
“They threatened to do this thing
awhile back, but I didn't think they'd

"What thing?" he waa asked. He
pointed mutely to hla throat.
"Who do you think did It?"
"I guess It wa* my alater-ln-law. It

They waa all there."
