LOSES FIGHT TO ■ WATSON Slade Wanted the House to Recall Invitation, But His Move Is Defeated. T(inl Watson, the sage of McDuffie, --held his reputation as a source of worr? to certain persons today in the legislature and. as is not unusual, came cut unscathed. ■,|r Watson had been invited, at his pun suggestion, to speak in the house tomorrow on "issues of the day.” Rep reeeniative Slade, of Muscogee, at the opening of the session today, launched mto ' igorous objection, declaring that he understood Watson was going to take advantage of the opportunity to pt tack a great church, and he resented it bitterly. Representative Massengale, of War ren. who introduced the original reso extending the invitation, assert ed that it was only a courtesy to the McDuffie man. extended at his own suggestion, and. as far as he knew, Mr. Watson «as going to talk on the Bris tow amendment. In spite of this plea. Mr. Slade moved f , ir a reconsideration, but Mr. Murphy, ~t Bulloch, objected and the invitation stands. Mi Massengale took a dig at the politicians in the course of his talk, declaring that when they needed Wat son they took good care to be awfully nice, but when Mr. Watson wanted a pule something it was otherwise. He declared- that Mr. Watson was a well known personage and that the legisla ture might well give consideration to anything he might say. STEAMSHIP COMPANY MUST PAY $20,000 FINE MACON GA..

A library of municipal literature, a collection of the official publications of the larger cities of America, is pro posed by Walter Taylor, city clerk, who offered today to get and maintain such a library if the city council would au thorize it and provide space for It in the city hall. “We need such a library.” said Mr. Taylor. "We are constantly writing to various cities for information on this subject and that. Almost every day we receive an inquiry from some other city in regard to some detail of Atlanta work already printed in a report of some board, committee or department. ’if' Atlanta nad a new piece of con struction work under consideration, the experts could go through tlie reports from other cities, see what they have done, how they were satisfied, and get valuable information, perhaps saving the city a great deal of money. "New York has a splendid municipal library, covering every important city in the country. We could build up one, not so large, which would answer our purposes. It need not cost the city anything, as other municipalities. are glad to send us their reports as they are issued.” KIMBROUGITgETS’iTrACE FOR COUNCIL FROM TENTH J. T.

H. PERRY, CANDIDATE FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR Discusses the County Unit Plan in State Pri maries, and Points Out the Mistakes of the Executive Committee in Not It as to the Senatorial Primary. The county unit plan is the only just, the only wise method of deciding on any candidate or on any measure. It gives a better balance expression of public! sentirhent. The plurality plan is not only unjust to the country counties, but is more apt to result in a one-sided expression. It is not a wise policy to cause the people of any county to feel that their votes will be reduced to insignificance by the immense plurality vote of the large cities. It would discourage their Interest in public affairs and their contribution, often much needed, to the proper solution of public ques tions. It is better for the maintenance of free institutions that there should be many centers of political thought and activity than that political power should be concentrated at a few points. This principle lies at the foundation of our Federal system, which seeks to avoid too great concentration of pow er, always fatal to liberty, and to guar antee to each local state, however small, its part in the government. It is this feature which has won the admira tion of all students of our government. The same principle should be applied to county units. It is so preserved by our constitution in our legislative sys tem and should be in our primary elec tion. It is all tlie more important when we consider that the agricultural inter est is our main interest and, there fore, should be fairly represented in the administration of the government and that this interest finds its only voice through the votes of the country coun ties. 1 can not understand why this should be recognized by the executive com mittee in the selection of the governor and state house officers, and ignored in the selection of a United States sen ator, an office of such vital signifi cance. Why should not the country counties be entitled to their proper voice in one as in the other? Besides. 3 room Mwl™ 1 'jUMMER HOME Har&wMd finished floor—lo ky 22 foot. Coilinr 0 ft., inches high.

The bill introduced by Mr. Adams, of Hall, seeks to remedy this anomaly and this injustice apd to fix the county unit plan in our primary system. Whatever may be the. fate of the Bristow amendment, thia bill gives us the election of the United States sen ator by the people. Anything short of it leaves us with the name and not the substance. The manipulation of the methods of nomination by party committees and caucuses In the interest of some can didate has been the source of great dissatisfaction among the people with both the present political parties, and it Is this dissatisfaction so created which is the hope of Roosevelt today. It is better to regulate all this by law and leave no room for complaint or suspicion. If the people have a right to elect their officers, they have the right to regulate the manner of their nomina tion. They have asserted this right all over the country by laws regulating the time and manner of holding pri maries and of selecting candidates, and such laws have been readily sustained by the courts. They are perfectly con sistent with ,pur constitution and sys tem of government. As to the recent action of the exec utive committee, it was without doubt honestly intended. 1 mean no reflec tion upon them. Some are my personal friends, and. I am proud to say. my supporters. It was simply unwise, and done, perhaps, without much reflection amid many other matters absorbing at tention. I, have never thought it proper as a candidate, either personally or through others, to appear before any execu tive committee to urge any particular action. I have a right to expect fair play without asking it. H H- PEfIRY. |niiiii.iiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiijiiiiiiiig I J.M.High Comm.
