6 STATE MANSION SW DEBATED Three Deals to Dispose of Gov ernor’s House Before the Georgia Legislature. With th*- ar.d hou»p commit- ■ tees’ playing at <ros«-purposes’, it !.’ fe. doubtful if the present legislature will 3 hit upon a scheme for the disposal of the executive mansion at F’.»achtree and if- C'ain streets. Several arrangements have been pro. K. posed and at least tinee of them are Si now before the lawmakers. Senator <• E« Copelan. chairman of the committee on public buildings in the upper house, wants the state to swap the mansion i for the Peters proper!v in Peachtree street adjoining th. Georgian Terrace hotel. Representative Allen is urging a resolution for the sale of the man sion at public auction for a sum not less than 1400,n0n. If this plan falls, Allen wants to lease the mansion to the B M. Grant Company and purchase the English property at 468 Peachtree street. It Is evident that the Cop.lan plan to swap for the Peters tract and a boot of 1100.000 will receive l oneftleratlon In the senate and may pass but the rules committee c,f the house has failed as yet to listen to Allen. His resolution has not been placed on the calendar. In view of the fact that the house is loaded with senate hills still to be acted on and that the senate will have its hands full with rhe special appropria tion bills soon to come from the house, a settlement of the mansion dispute Is very doubtful. Legislators, at least thow> members nf the public buildings committees who have wrestled with the disposal ques tion. are willing for a succeeding legis lature to settle the matter.

SEARCHINGSIDELIGHTS ON GEORGIA POLITICS i William H Fleming has withdrawn [from the race for congress In the Tenth district, and thus insures Mr Harti ' w ick's unopposed return to Washington las his own successor. in withdrawing. Mr. Fleming gave to I the public a pa t t ieularly frank, lucid ianfl mank card He found that it would be impossible to continue his fight without intensifying the bitterness alrcad; rampant throughout his dis trict. In retiring he seeks to deliver a message of peace and good will that I should, and doubtless w ill, commend him most cordially and sincerely to the high esteem and respect of his con st intents In his card Mr Fleming pays a re ma kable and splendid—and des 'ved tribute to Tom Watson. He and Wat son were sot years the most Implacable of enemies Watson, indeed, was the direct influence that removed Fleming from congress Just when his career was rounding into its finest form. During all these years of retirement Fleming has asked no quarter of his enemies. He has held a dignified silence, and trusted time to right the wrong of the long ago. When recently Watson, of his own accord, came to Fleming and asked forgiveness for the injury of the past and sought to right It in such measure as h" might. It touched a tender spot In Fleming's heart, and he responded to the advances of the ‘red-headed one," and agreed to l n t bygones be bygones William H Fleming is one of Geor gia’s brainiest and soundest men He deserves much more than he ever has received. Georgia would profit by Fleming's presence in congress, and thousands of Georgians would have been pleased to see him returned. However that max be —and some will view It one way, the while others view It another it will seem to many that Mr. Fleming's recent brief participa tion in the polities of the Tenth was wort li while, after all. for it has cleared up the atmosphere down that wav. in ;i I measure- and that was something worth the trouble of doing. • In retiring. Mr Fleming takes high and dignified ground. He gets out gracefully, and with added prestige. It costs a pretty penny to play the game of politics nowadays, anyway you look at it. One would think that so high and mighty an office as United States sena tor, with all of Its great dignity and so forth, might be sought with compara tively little expense—ls one were care less in his thinking but It Is not so. It costs to be a senator —even to ask to lie made a senator. Colonel H H. Perry, who aspires to Senator Bacon's seat, has filed an ex pense account of $4,058.61. and the items scheduled cover traveling ex penses and publicity only—perfectly legitimate and necessary expenses. Senator Bacon has spent about half as much They framed up a smooth trick on the Honorable Joe Hill Hall, of Bibb, in the house of representatives Mon day. The gentleman from Bibb, as all the world knows, is a candidate for gov ernor and he spent all last week stumping south Georgia. Inevitably, in those < ireumstanci s. he was conspicu ous by his absence from the house. "Old Joe Hill Hall had no business being away from here last week." said a member yesterday -morning, "and there are a number of things up that he should have taken a stand on I even think he may have been dodging iiere, ratliei than speaking yonder. I am go ing to fix him lam going to ask the rules committee to fix it so that mem bers w ill be refused permission to ex plain their votes -that will get the old man, for if the house refuses him per mission to > explain, lie will explain every vote he casts, In spite of the warm place and high water!" And the tiling was fixed so that mem bers could not explain their votes—and true to prediction. Joe Hill Hall ex plained every vote he east under the operation of the nil-, in the teeth of the house ami despite its most stern decree.

Mr. Newsome, of Glascock, delivered an eloquent oration in the house Mon day. favoring the repeal of the pestifer ous dog tax in Georgia. The gentleman was unusually elo quent, and evidently very much In ear nest. In fact, it was painfully appar ent that the failure of the legislature to repeal that tax would hurt Mr. New some's feelings tremendously, and might drive him to strong drink Inquiry of Mr. Newsome as to why the thusness of his oratorical flight brought forth the candid and entirely ready response. “Why, the repeal of that tax was a direct, pulsating and paramount Issue in my tight to get to this house, and I was in honor bound to stand by my platform and my peo ple or bust!” Professor W.

CHURCHILL ESCAPES SUFFRAGETTE “MOB” BY SPEEDING UP CAR LONDON, Aug. 13.—First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill was today "held up" by suffragettes while automobiling toward Sandwich. Mr. Churchill's car suddenly was sur rounded by women on bikes, who had apparently followed from London. They began to shout “Votes for women!" Deeming flight advisable. Churchill, disregarding the chauffeur's fears for the women, gave orders for full speed ahead, and the ear soon outdistanced the women, who were soon winded by their furious pedaling and their contin ued screams of “Votes for women!" One suffragette was knocked from her wheel when the automobile started, but no one was hurt. BESSIE McCOY'S MOTHER IS SOMEJSNAKE SLAYER NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y. Aug. 13 Mrs. M.

H Harriman the famous contribution of $-150,006 for the Republican party. I he decision to call him was reached today after Representative James T. Floyd, of Missouri, of the Democratic congressional committee in 1908, had testified. Representative Lloyd told the committee that the contributions for that year amounted to about $27,000 and the expenditures- were within a few dollars of that amount. He recalled that $7,000 was obtained through the sale of campaign litera ture. $1.6000 of which came from f harles E. Keane, of New York, for speeches which he wanted distributed, and $1,395 from the sale of the cam paign book which was compiled from The Congressional Record. From the house of representatives, in sums ranging from $25 to S2OO. Mr. Lloyd said a total of $6,750 was ob tained. Only two of the representa tives. however, contributed S2OO. They were Champ Clark and Francis Burton Harrison, of New York. Through the late Senator Jones, of Arkansas, there Was contributed a to tal of $3,500, and from Hermann Rid der, of New York; W. G. Conrad, of Montana, and R F. Daniel, of Ken tucky, contributions of $250 each were received. The deilclous flavors of the best fruit and more economical.

Politicians were alarmed. $ But Caiaphas, mouthpiece for Annas, said: “Ye know nothing at ’ all—it is expedient for you that one man die.’’ 7 « And they dragged Jesus to Pilate, the Roman official. “I find no crime in Him,’’ said the Roman. Annas, unseen, here struck with the club of practical politics. - 1 His heelers roared, “Crucify! Crucify! If thou release this man thou art not a friend of Caesar!’’ Loss of office, vanishing graft loomed horribly before Pilate. Throttling conscience and law, he sent Jesus to the cross. Simply a tool in the hands of Annas, the wretched man, like An nas, thought only that he had overcome another obstacle by practical expediency, the sacrifie of one who had neither friends nor influence. They saw not higher up. above all, God! Father forbid that we be so blind! ’ “What is this history of Fantine?’’ asked Victor Hugo. “It is society buying a slave.’’ “From whom? From misery.’’ “The sale of a soul for a bit of bread.’’ / Mouthpieces sneer, “You know nothing at all; it is expedient that r some girls fall that many may be pure.’’ “Whited sepulchers’’ poison the air with their expediency. And without Pilate’s battle with conscience, public officials are saying, “Neither laws nor morals justify the houses; their sacrifice of ’ girls is frightful; but it is expedient we have the houses in our midst.” The pressure of unseen “men higher up” is felt. Sepulcher-born expediency finds utterance. •: Hear it! “Mothers bid your daughters be pure! » “But forget that more than forty-four houses, dependent for ex- T istence upon making girls impure, wait for them with open doors! “Officers touch not our landlords and the men living bv buvine and selling women! 8 “But arrest yonder little street walker; slaves may not be seen out of bounds! “We have provided a district, a public market place, where the select may buy and sell. “Efficient policemen patrol it. “These,will see that spenders and buyers suffer no harm at the hands of our white slaves.” Surely God, above all, has been forgotten! v Will we-shall our city endure the continuance of this unspeaka ble shame? / In Christ’s Name, No!
