SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
Secretary of State Philip Cook i
prouder of nothing in his office titan lie
is of an old-fashioned pictu'e of an old-
jAMX-3 B NTEw-TXt
fashioned gent •-
man. who so.
the unprecedented
term of 4 4 years,
was secretary of
state for Georgia
The pictu re
hangs just back of
the present secre
ts ry'z chair, and it
is mo r e or less
faded with age.,
but It shows, nev
ertheless, the rug
ged lines and
strong face of old
Nathan Barnett, a
Georgian of the
ancient regime,
and a., (ffilcial for
many years with
mit fear and without reproach.
When Nathan Barnett was elected
secretary of state that office was filled
by the legislature, and not by tlie vote
of the people, as has been the ease
since the adoption of the constitution
of 1877.
When Bat nett was first elected, the
lapltoi was in Milledgeville, and At
lanta was not even on the map.
Barnett served through the war -un
der the father of the present governor.
Joseph E Brown but went out in Re
construction days, only to come back
triumphantly after the "carpetbaggers’
had been tun back to their lairs up
Nori h.
When old Nathan Barnett left the
secretary of state’s office, just after the
war. he carried with him the- great seal
of the stat* He kept It. too. until after
Reconstruction days, and when he came
back Into office he brought that seal
with him and It is the great sea. in
use today.
Some histories have said that Gov
ernor Jenkins took away and hid for a
time tlie great seal of the state of Geor
gia, but that is a mistake It was the
executive seal that Governor Jenkins
had. w hich is a very different article.
Nathan Barnett died in office—h°
was more than 90 when he passed away
and before he closed his eyes forever
he asked Governor John B. Gordon to
appoint as his. successor the present
secretary's father. General Philip <'ook
as a personal favor to the then dying
secretary.
General Cook was an old man when
the appointment was tendered him. an 1
was inclined to turn it down, but when
[Governor Gordon told him all the cir
cumstances of the case, lie agreed t>
accept, ami served for some time afte?
h's appointment.
Georgia ha’s had fewer men to occupy
the office of secretary of state than any
other office under the constitution.
Comptroller General William A.
Wright thinks it speaks well for the
new insurance law of Georgia* that
practically every provision of it has
been recommended to the West Mir
glnia legislature by the state auditor
for enactment Into law in that state
The new insurance law is working
nicely in Georgia. and both the comp
troller and the deputy insurance com
missioner think it will work a revolu
tionary change for the better in loc.v
methods of life insurance.
The Georgia legislature has a curious
way of enacting purely local legislation
now and then under the guise of a gen
eral measure —that is. as they call it in
legislative circles, a general bill with a
local application.
This method of effecting legislation
is not always creditable to the general
assembly, moreover and frequently is
of questionable constitutionality, so
many lawyers think.
From out the last legislative acts, for
instance, which were published a few
days ago. this scintillating gem is
culled:
Section I Be it enacted by the
general assembly of Georgia, and It
is hereby enacted by authority of
same, that in cities having a popu- I
lation of not less than three thou
sand five hundred and fifty inhabi
tants. and not more than three
thousand five hundred and fifty
two. according to the last census of
the United States, the city tax as
sessors shall not be permitted to
value and assess for city taxation
their own property, but the mayor
and council shall have power and
authority to value and assess for
city taxation such property of such
tax assessors.
That s pretty funny, in away and if
you will read it over a second time,
carefully, the humor of it surely will
occur to you
It requires, for Instance, very little
Sherlock Holmesing tn the big census
book to discover that the one town in
Georgia that possibly may be effect ci
by this "general” legislation is dear old
jc’edariown. in Polk county
It is splitting the splits pretty a* -
curately tn hold the application of this
bill down to towns "of not less than
3.550 and not mot* than 3.552 a diffei
enee of 2 isn’t much of a difference!
There is a doubt that this law Is < on-

st *tutiona and certain y it seems to
have been effected- -w ell. curiously
enough, anyway!
And there is a lot mote legislation of
the same sort on the statute books,
moreover, that possibly ought not to be
there.
I'nited States Senate Hoke Smith is
very optimiztic with respect to the
Democtatic outlook.
He believes that Wilson is to win,
hand** down, and that he is tn make a
great president, moreover ‘
The senator has been working in the
West. so far, but a few days ago he was
called East, and left for Washington
yesterday. After a day or so in the na
tional capital, looking after some legis
lative matte's, ne will go to New York
city, where a program win be given him
I that will keep him busy up to and ac
tually including November s—election5 —election
day.
Senator Smith has devoted much of
his Um*- to speaking in states where
there is a prospect of electing Demo
■ ratio senators tn replace ' Republicans.
He feels the great necessity* of having a
* ongress to hack up President Wilson,
and wherever he haa been able he has
put in some licks for Democratic sena
torial aspirants.
"I think." said the senator, "that we
shall control the senate from the very
beginning of Wilson’s administration If
so. we shall have, for the first time in
many years, a real Democratic admin
istration, from start to finish. It will
lie difficult to enact the legislation we
have In mind unless wo do give the
president a congress of a faith similar
to his own, I hope 1 may have been
able to help that along in a way—cer
tainly I have had it very much in mind
as I journeyed through the West
"I shall not return to Atlanta until
election day- in the meantime. I shall
be going all the time, as hard as I can.”

MINDS MADE BIBLE
MIRACLES, ASSERTS
SCIENCE LECTURER
Atlanta Christian Scientists and their |
friends are discussing today the dec-I
laration of Judge Cliffo d B. Smith that ;
the miracle- of the Bible were not ab- j
normal manifestations of God s super-j
natural powei. but simply the results of]
‘the states of mind of the people who
witnessed them. Judge Smith deliv
ered a lecture yesterday afternoon at
the L.vrie theater before an audience of
several thousand persons.
Judge Smith declared-that the secret
of divine healing, lost for eighteen cen
turies. had been found again by Mrs.
Eddy ami by het transmitted to the
church she had founded. He declared
that the eternal principle of healing is
found in the Christian Science faith
and its principle lies in having the
proper state of mind.
HE MAKES $1,000,000:

NEW YORK. Oct. 21.—Official account

bridge. who was at one time declared
to have won more than a million dol
lars in gambling establishments in New-
York city and Hot Springs, Ark., shows
how uncertain is a fortune built on
chance The property left by Burbridge,
who died in Havana September 14, totals
less than $2,000.
FINED SIOO FOR BEATING
HIS SLEEPING SPOUSE
CHICAGO, Oct. 21.—For beating his
wife, Joseph Mazurka, of 65 West Twen

Municipal Judge Newcomer. At the time
of the attack Mrs. Mazurka was sleeping
with her year-old baby, she testified.
ACTS ON THE LIVER
Dodson’s Liver Tone Livens Up the
Liver —Is More Than a
Mete Laxative.
Calomel was for years the only
known medicine that would stimulate
the liver. But calomel is often danger
ous. and people are not to be blamed
for being afraid of it.
Within the last few* years many med
icines have been put out to be used in
stead of calomel, but their effect is on
the bowels—not on the liver. All At
lanta druggists say that the only real
liver medicine to actually take the
place of calomel is Dodsons Liver
Tone, a mild, harmless, vegetable liquid
that is recommended to take the place
of calomel and which gives prompt re
lief in cases of constipation, biliousness
and sluggish liver.
So confident are Atlanta druggists
that they give their persona! guaran
tee with every 50-cent bottle of Dod
son’s Liver Tone. You can be sure
that you are getting Dodson’s by ask
ing at these stores if they are giving
you the medicine they personally guar
antee to refund money* on if unsatis

ATLANTA NEW YORK FARIS
Here Are All the Rich Velvets, Corduroys
and Plushes So Prominent in the
Fashions This Fall
We intend that this silk department shall reflect the fash'
ions fully and accurately as they are brought out in Paris and
in New York. That is why so much importance is given right
now to the rich and lustrous velvets, plushes and corduroys.
For this is their day!
Many costumes from Paris are entirely of velvet, others
of velvet and charmeuse, and for evening wraps, velvets and
plushes seem to hold entire dominion.
And the velvets are not just the plain velvets that you
have always known. The wonderful weavers of France have
added richness to richness and the result is two-toned velvets,
corded velvets, plushes of a weight and suppleness that lends
itself to soft folds and drapings. Colors, too, are often those
that these fabrics in days gone by never knew.
It is an interesting display—-one to enjoy-—one we would
have you enjoy—even if you do not consider purchasing.
Here are some of the wanted ones:
Chiffon Velvets, 40 inches wide, in black and colors, in
cluding shades of purple, brown, blue and taupe, priced at $5
and $5.50 a yard.
Pompadour Velvets, a new velvet that is corded and that
shows two colors—-a splendid variety of these in many color
combinations, 40 inches wide, $5 a yard.
Black Velvets, 40 inches wide; a rare display of these
ranging in price from $3.50 to $9 a yard.
Silk Plushes, 40 inches wide, in such shades as taupe, wis
taria, navy and Copenhagen, at $7.50 a yard.
Corduroys for suits and dresses, imported, which accounts
for their fine lustre. In brown, navy, green, garnet, gray, black
and white at $1.50 a yard.
Velveteens, a full color card, showing many shadings of
the wanted colors, priced at $1 to $1.50 a yard.
Many of the Newly Arrived Hats
Are in Taupe
Tomorrow you may see the use of the taupe shade in mil
linery as it is new in New Y’ork.
It is a soft and very charming shade, one that is very prom
inent throughout the fashions of this season.
But these hats that we invite you to see tomorrow are not
merely taupe hats, they are taupe hats from the Estelle Mershon
shop of 20 East 46th Street, New York—and they have more
than their color to make them beautiful
They have all the newness and smartness of line and trim
ming that the women of Atlanta are coming to associate with
hats from this unusual little shop.
Here is one, a medium-long shape, of taupe plush with
two pale blue ostrich feathers gracefully poised at the side.
Here is one, a rather large hat, of taupe plush, with brim
upturned at the side and trimmed with two-toned ostrich plumes,
the shades of which are pink and lavender. You will notice,
too, the prominence of two-toned plumes—-they may be seen
here in several exquisite combinations.
Another taupe hat is a chic, jaunty little shape that pulls
well down over the head and with the back crown flaring in tam
o’shanter style.
But while we are mentioning taupe, we are neglecting
beautiful hats of purple, of brown, and of black and white com
binations, all of which, showing so many new and interesting
little quirks of shape and trimming, it is hardly necessary to
tell you that the expressman just brought.
And what do all these.new hats here mean?
That you will find here the one most becoming to you!
