2 ROW OF DOCTORS IS SEEN BACK OF MERRITT DUSE Councilmen Say Charges Are Result of Feeling Between Anti-Tuberculosis Heads. A numb* i "f <-iy councilmen de clared today that it was clear to them that the whole trouble about the Bat tle Hill Tuberculosis s.iiitarlum was an estrangement betw. e;i the managers of the institution, Dr. Ulstud' A. Smith, city bacteriologist, and Dr. S. W. Mer ritt, superintendent, and officials of the Associated Charities ami the Anti-Tu berculosis :.sso, iation. Joseph <Lo gan and Dr. R. R. Daley (’oimeilman G. ,H. Boynton, a member of the com mute* said this was the gist of lite matter It developed at . ,ie investigation yes terday afternoon that after Dr. Daley, who is the chairman of the clinical staff of the Anti-Tuberculosis associa tion, charged mismanagement against the institution before the board of health, and Aiderman A. H. Van Dyke declared himself in favor of an investi gation a number of patients called on Dr. VahDyke to register complaints. When the source of the tight had been shown at the investigation yesterday. Mrs. Gilbert Eraser, a prominent social worker and the president of the Shel tering Arms, surprised the committee by a request to make a statement. Calls Evidence Rubbish. She declared that the evidt-nc* against the Battle Hill sanitarium was rubbish and that the committee ought not to listen to it. Mr. Logan said he did not hate any serious complaint except that Dr. Smith and Dr. Merritt set med opposed to co operation with his association. He said that Dr. Smith was on, . somewhat rude to Miss Minnie Van Epps, of the Charities association, when ' site applied for admission to the hos pital for the mother of an Italian fam ily. Dr. Smith said the family was repre sented to him as paupers, while the husband earned $lO a week and a brother sls a week. He said they were saving their money. He said on in vestigation it was found that the wom an whom they wanted to get into the hospital did not have tuberculosis The most interesting bit.of testimony was the cross-examination of Dr. Daley by Dr. Smith. Or. Daley Under Fire. "You say you have been hearing these complaints against the hospital since April and yet you have never told me or the committee In Charge of the institution nho tit them?’"''asked Dr. Smith. "The charges were being investigated by a committee of the association and it was not my business to tell of them.” replied Dr. Daley. "Yet you w.-'nt before the board of ~ health and made them in my absence?" ■ continued Dr. Smith. "1 went before the board of health to try and effect an -arrangement of co-operation, and you were not pres ent answered Dr. Daley. "Whim you found me not present y ou _ ’blew up' and made all sorts of c.targes?" asked Dr. Smith. “No. I did not 'blow up. " answered Di. Dale;.. "Do you remember speaking to me about your desire to get on the medical SlaJ’f of the Grady hospital and using some very strong- language in declar ing that only those on the inside could get those places'.’" continu'd Dr. Smith. "Don’t look at me so straight. You < au't intimidate me,” replied Dr. Daley hotly. Dr. Daley then denied that he had made such a statement. The investigation will be resumed next Tuesday.

Numerous patriotic and liberty-lov ing sons of Georgia are sniffing the presidential battle from afar nowadays, JAMIAS LxA-crvr ■md anticipating next Tuesday's Bull Moose and Elephant Water loos ’ with care plea su r e—a n d that isn’t all, they are sniffing and anticipating. Tlier.- are other things that may be sniffed and an ticipated —believe them! • For instance, there are more than one hundred fine, fat, presi dential size post masterships i n G e o r g i a —quite sniffable, thank you, quite so, indeed! In fact, there are few things in the sniff business more absolutely pleas ing to sniffers than postmasterships at present encumbered with Republi cans, but which may, nevertheless, soon be vacated in favor of the hosts of Democracy, long shivering and freez ing in the cold outside. • Also there are numerous small pick ings around and about. There are internal revenue collector ships, for one thing. Some of these class as A-l in sniffology. Others are not so important—but no one of then, is to be sneezed at! It is the general and pleasing im pression, too. that President Wilson — who seems a reasonable certainty—Avill recognize no Democratic faction in Georgia, in the matter of passing the political pie. The appointments a ill be made, us ually. with the advice and consent of the immediate congressional represen tatives concerned. Both senators are enthusiastic Wilson supporters, and both are stumping for him. It is said that the question of pa tronage in Georgia is to be handled fairly and squarely to all parties con cerned. and without regard to ancient enmities or feeling in the state. That is why the Georgia patriot now adays sniffeth where he listeth. and no man knoweth what he smelleth —or whether he will get it The overwhelmingly happy and de licious circumstances is that, at last, some toothsome Federal political pie is headed in the direction of the grand old Georgia Democracy! This sniffing business may not be ideally the fit and proper thing—but as a practical proposition, the patriots are* finding the sniffing fine, anyway! State Superintendent of Schools M. L. Brittain is very much interested in the forthcoming election in Campbell county, upon the question of county wide taxation for educational purposes. Discussing this matter in its gen eral aspect, the state superintendent of schools said: ‘‘Local taxation for public schools is a new thing in Georgia compared with some other states, it having been first put in operation several years after the war. At the outset the emphasis was upon the city and district. Later, how ever. the mistake was seen and for the last few years the county-wide plan, by which all of the schools of a county are unified as well as length ened and improved, has been univer sally accepted as best by the educa tional leaders of the state. ‘Tn the South the county is naturally an educational as well as political unit. People are seeing the superior advan tages thus presented in contrast with the numerous warring educational sys tems placed close together, and there are now 29 counties under the county unit plan although there were only four in 1908. “Besides ('ampbell, which has al ready begun the necessary preliminary steps for the election which will be held in November, measures are being con- I CURE THE FAILURES OF OTHERS At Your Own Price and Terms to Suit You.
