Ought to Have Been Fired, Is
Decision Handed Down
on Appeal.
Thf supreme court has sustained the
decision of thof lower court In dismiss
ing C. M. loan caster, a constable of
Fulton county, from office. Lancaster
tiled a bill of exceptions to the court’s
judgment In overruling demurrers filed
by him to the petition which sought his
removal. Proceedings were brought
against Lancaster last October by the
solicitor general of the Atlanta circuit.
He was charged with Insisting on levy
ing <»n a fl. fa. after the defendant and
plaintiff*ln execution had agreed that
the n. fa. should temporarily be stayed.
The petition charged that he was un
reasonable, rough an<l domineering In
ht.s methods, delighting to oppress the
poor snd weak and to humiliate the In
nocent, and that he had an exaggerated
conception of the Importance of his
office. Many other charges w*ere enu
merated In the petition, among which
'vere i he facts that ho had twice been
convicted of disorderly conduct and
three times convicted by the recorder
f'*r being drunk.

Pronounces His Action i
%
Novel, Unusual and With
out Precedent.
Washington, Juna 15.—Senator Nel
son, of Minnesota, began the debate on
Canadian reciprocity In the senate to
day with a strong appeal against the
measure, and criticised President Taft
for approving the treaty. Senator Nel
son declared that the action of the
president was "novel, unusual and
without precedent"
"In the case under consideration,
said' Senator Nelson, "the preaidertt.
thru the state department, made an
agreement or treaty which he seelu to
ratify, not by a two-thirds vote or the
senate, hut by a mere majority of the
tte, supplemented by a mere major-
of the house of representatives, or
by a mere executive act. And In this
way he evades the treaty-making pro
vision of the constitution. If this Is
true , tn the case of commercial and
trade agreements, why can not the
same course be pursued In respect to
other subjects, and thus practically
transfer the treaty-making power from
the president and the senate to the
president and congress?
“The trade agreement submitted by
the president tn this Instance for rati
fication by congress and not by the sen
ate alone, has, as far as I have been
able to learn, no precedent In our con
stitutional history or the history of the
executive department.
“A mere statement of the case allows
how unconstitutional, how utterly un
warranted sucl* action Is on the part
of the president. The president can
recommend, he can approve or veto, but
ho has no right to bargain congress
away or to say to a foreign country that
he 'will use his utmost efforts to bring
about’ certain proposed legislation. Is
not this a clean Invasion of the legis
lative prerogative of congress and de
structive of Its Importance?
“The conduct of the president Is not
only novel and without precedent, but
to me It seems to be of such serious
consequences that I have felt It tny
duty to bring It to the attention of tHc
senate. It seems to me that the presi
dent Is depriving the fanners of this
country of their constitutional protec
tion in a two-thirds vote of the senate.
This agreement would not be ratlfted If
It were submitted to us for ratlflcutian

Protests Against Certain Places
To Be Made at Commit
tee Meeting.
The first regular called meeting of
the Atlanta Automobile and Accessory
Dealers- association was held Wednes
day night at which time a constitu
tion and by-laws were adopted. ' The
articles of Incorporation were read and
accepted and various committees
named.
The Initiation tee was set at $10
and the yearly dues at $20. It was
provided also that onlv automobile
dealers who had a recognised place of
business be admitted to. membership—
this action being a shot at the so-called
"curb-dealers." The soepe of the or
ganisation was also broadened to tako
tn motorcycle dealers.
A committee, comoosed of Messrs.
Dong, Hopkins, Ktoeber. Smith and
Etyea, was named to take charge of the
legislative activities of the organisa
tion. This committee was empowered
to employ attorneys to act on any pro
posed .legislation and to draft a new
automobile hill.
The following directors were elected:
Lindsey Hopkins, M. C. Hule, W. D.
Alexander. J. W. Goldsmith. Jr„ W. G.
Hollis, F. C. Stelnhauer and F. J. Long.
Mr. Long was elected chairman of the
board.
The next meetlnr of tne association
will be at Durand's cafe next Wednes
day night at 7 o'clock.
pursuant to the constitution.
"The proper constitutional method
have pursued In this case would have
been the negotiation of a treaty by flje
president, the submission of the treaty
for ratification by. the senile, and on
its ratification to supplement It by an
act of congress to carry out tha -provi
sions of fhe treaty. This was th«
course pursued in the coee of a cer
tain reciprocity treaty of 1854.”
Senator Nelson then gave an exhaus.
tlve legal analysis of previous treaties,
to bear out his contention that the
president had erred In the reciprocity
agreement.
THE GOOD SHIP AGNES
TO HAVE A MERRY CREW
' When the good ship Agnes sails from
the port of Savannah a few days from
now. she will carry a merry party of
fishermen, for the most part Atlantans,
who are planning a delightful trip. The
Agnes la a swift coastwise craft, and
she has been chartered by the merry
fishermen, and Is being dally stowed
with the requisites of delight for such
a voyage. The Agnes will touch at
Brunswick, St. Simons and Florida
points op her voyage, and the party will
spend about two weeks.
The exact personnel of the party has
not been determined yet. but It Is cer
tain that the following will make the
trip: Frank Owens. St. Elmo Massen-
gale, A. G. Allen. Paul Norcross.-W. A.
Mali and J. H. Bdmundson, of Annis
ton. Ala. invitations have been ex
tended to several others and this list
will likely be considerably Increased by
the time the party leaves Atlanta Sat
urday. They are all said to be good
fishermen, and are anticipating a most
pleasant outing.
The annual near-beer light will be
begun at the meeting of the police com
mittee Thursday afternoon, in the com
mittee room of the new city hall.
Chairman W.* G. Humphrey says he
lias been notified- that a large number
of persons will protest against certain
saloons. A number of ministers are
expected at the meeting and there Is
a probability that a general tight
against the sale of beer in Atlanta will
be taken to council, as happened last
year.
July 1 Is the time tut the renewal of
all beer licenses. The old xone spur
from Pledmont-ave. to Butler-st. In
Edgewood-ave., Is to-be cut out by an
ordinance already adopted, and there
are numerous petitions for further re
strictions of the zone.
The employees of the Frank E. Block
Company have tiled a petition with the
city clerk urging that the license of
the negro saloons and pool rooms at
the comer of Mitchell and Elllott-sfi.
not be renewed. .
The committee will consider all these
matters thoroughly at $ o'clock Thurs
day afternoon and make recommenda
tions to council.

Better a-pint of happlnqss than a peclg
of trouble—Chicago News*
W»
HAT I told a gentleman aome time ago in a letter I want
quacks and fakers into believing thot all the ills of humanity
could be diagnosed and cured \v mail. So I
explained differently to him. I pointed out
that I was not ita the mail order medicine-
selling business. I also explained that that
which I had to sell was my medical ability
and knowledge—ability and knowledge ac
quired by more than a third of a century of
specializing in the diseases of men, chronic
diseases and nervous disorders. Because it
was my ability to relieve suffering and the
scientific knowledge I had to sell, I did not
make a practice of diagnosing eases by mail.
There is considerable difference hetween one
who sells medicines and one who sells his
scientific knowledge. If a patient KNOWS
what is troubling hint and tells me. I might
be able to relieve him by giving certain reme
dies. But if he DOESN’T know and wants
me to tell him what the trouble is without eoming to see me, I do
not want the ease. I do not want the case for the reason that I
do not believe I can help him. It is too much guesswork. And
one of these days the postal authorities are going to put a stop to
this sort of thing. I say l have ability' to treat the d's"»s"- in
whieh I specialize, because I JKNOW them. I know them beesus"
I have been studying them and specializing in them for so loner.
That’# why I say I can cure any ease whieh CAN be cured. I
am in thy. office from 8 to 7; Sundays and holidays. 10 to 1 My
monographs are free by mail in plain, sealed wrapp-r. They are
