IVIlb rcfprpnce to a news it“m re

for the I’nited States senate against

On principle. How it may affect
me personally is of little impor

have mirserl hearing a good speech
that is all.
I will say in passing, however,
there was a time when they
seemed to have no friend in the
legislature but myself When the
bill was up to deduct the franchise
tax from the rental of the streets. I
1,, opposed this unjust measure with
| all my might and had it completely
beaten, until you- Atlanta repre
sentative pleaded for it. and said II
only affected \tlanta. and Atlanta
wanted it: that it was really a Io

the sponge. Bui if I had been let
alone I would have saved youi city

you badly med in yotu exchequer.
I may be in a position to help you
in oilier matters later.

ple think It is all of that, but it may be
true that now and then it manifests
taself in an apparently nn row way.
There is no denying that a narrow
"Atlanta spirit" would reiut eventually
upon itself, and to Atlanta's hurt and
discredit. If the "Atlanta spirit” is
not as broad as it should be, it should
be broadened without delay.
Colonel Perry is one of Georgia's
most valuable citizens—a man of sta
ling integrity, patriotic purpose, and
honorable ambition. He can do Al- ,

Atlanta'.- faults, as they appear to him
Nothing would be finer than to have
"every Georgian feel that he is a citi
zen of Atlanta;'’
In other words. Colonel Perry
heliev'-s it would be a mistake to
hottie up tho "Atlarfta spi'it."
In the legislature of 1896-98, the first
one in vvhieh Jdhn M. ,Slaton served,
ther, were forty-odd "Pops."
The Populist movement was at flood
tide then, and the Georgia end of the

I a number of contested cases, in whiih
i "Pops" were attayed against Demo- I

I was called upon tn more than on, in
| stance to decide Against itself and in
favor of the minority party.
i>ne case of a particularly delicate
nature was that of A. 1,. Foster, of
('lay. a "Pop" winner over a Demo
cratic war horse, by the nariow margin
of three votes.

NEW CURE FOR LOCKJAW
IS FOUND IN BALTIMORE
—__
BALTIMORE July 17. The survival of
Bernard Myerly, nine years old. a- victim
of lockjaw resulting front a stonebruise,
has increased interest in the method of
treatment used in the case by T>r. Pearce
Ktntzing. This is the ninth of a series of
lockjaw oases in which Dr. Kintzing and
his assistants at the Franklin Square hos
pital have used a new plan of treatment
with success.
The remedy is a solution of phenol of
tn per cent strength, diluted to suit the
rases and administered by hypodermic
injections deep into tpe muscles. The in
jections are made at intervals of about
three hours at the start, with longer in
tervals as the patients rallied. The full
adult dose used is equivalent to about one
grain of pure crystalline phenol, ton drops
of the tn per rent solution To avoid
soreness, in some oases one half of the
solution diluted is injected and then the
other half injected in another place.
COURT HOLDS SURGEON
MAY CUT AS HE WILLS
TRENTON. N. J.. July 17. That a sur
geon instructed to perform a .certain op
/■rati ui upon a patient may exceed his in
structions while the patient Is under
ether and operate more extensively than
directed if he finds it necessary, is the
gist of an opinion just rendered by Jus
tice Garrison, of the supreme court. The
jurist was formerly a surgeon of note.
Harris Bennan sued Dr. VJctor Parson
net and got a verdict of SI.OOO because
the surgeon, who started to operate on
the left groin, found a more serious ron
: dition in the right, which threatened the
I man s life, and operated on it instead.
The patient was poor. Dr. Parsonnet
operated free of charge, and was sued
| for assault and battery. The verdict Is
I set aside.
