for Granting Hill St. Permit
to Transmission Company.

Electric Company. to Imihl a high power
Im- on Hill street ami Milton avenue,
and the hoard revoked the electricians
ph rm it.
Complaints of propertv owners di
rected the attention of the board to
the situation. The Central Georgia
Transmission Company had a force
working day and night on the street,
erecting a 66.0b') emit line. I H. Gal
hotjse, a resident of Hill stteet. dis
ehlrgepi his pistol twice last Thursday
njgiht’ to frighten away the workmen
when tiny disturb his sleep. He was
fined by the r< eorder, but Immediate
ly iheie was a genera! protest from the
citizen- against shy building of the line
alotig their street. Mr. Turner himself
said the high voltage wire would be
dangerous..
It was found the only authority
to build the line on these streets was
obtained from the city electrician, who
consulted only the engineer
Southeastern I’ndorwriter- Association.
Such an authority is equal to a
chise, and rests only with the cdtmcll.
The board immediately revoked the
permit of the company. The company
must get the right to proceed w ith the
Work by taking up the matter with the
board.
An injunction suit has been fl!, d to
st6p the work, but this was discon
tinued when the court was informed of
th” action of the city board.
City Electrician Turner declared the
board was living to put all the trouble
it could on him. The < ity had granted
the company the right to build such a
line on Lakewood avenue. Mr. Tur
ner said he ; transferred the permit to
other streets because he thought it was
a better route.
He said any line carrying more than
11.000 volts was dangerous and that
some of the lines of the Georgia Rail
way and Power Company, the company ;
that absorbed the Georgia Railway I
and Electric Company, should be con-i
damned.
The board, John E. Mc Clelland. \V.
B, Cummings, fire chief, and R. M. I
Clayton, chief of construction, decided j
not to go into this matter at this time. |

BOARD APPOINTMENTS
(’(implying with the request of Governor
I Brown, the senate today returned to him
I hl» nomination* to the state Ijbnrtl of ed
ucation. No action was taken on the
Hoke Smith appointment*.

ate is now Jest with the Smith appoint
ments to l»o approved or rejected. Those
a,ppointments are: Hr Jere, M. Pound
T. J W’oofter and J. <’ Langstont
The legal point raised in the senate
that the Smith nominations were made
to till real vacancies and kerp not ad
interim appointments, and the apparent
strength on this view with members of
il p upper house, was largely responsible
for the governor's action in withdrawing!
his nominations. He declined today to
discuss hfs future action In the matter.
The name of Walter Steed, appointed
b\ Governor Brown to succeed the late
Judge Lawson, was withdrawn so that
the senate will have but three names to
consider, whereas there are four vacan
cies on the board The Brown appoint
ments were: G. R. Glenn. T. .1 Woof ter,
A. T. Moon and Walter Steed.
