SHOP TALK Wilson Reconciles McAdoo and McCombs Three Hundred Cases of Rabies I Treated Already This Year Presented as Argument. , By JAMES B. NEVIN. The State Board of Health will urge upon the incoming Legislature, to directly as it may, the great desir ability of a dog-muzzling law m Georgia. The board is realizing that it i« somewhat difficult to enact any sort of legislation having to do with dog s in this State, nnd lo mak« that leg islation effective after it has been enacted. Still, when the people ar*- made to understand, if they can bo made to understand, that an enforced dog-muzzling law would In three \ ears rid Georgia of all danger of rabies, and that already this year the department has treated at the « apitol well over three hundred cases of this dreadful disease, the board be lieves the l*egi Mature may be brought to see the very great desirability, if not absolute necessity, of such ;> law. A dog-muzzling law will be of fered in the Legislature and it wlil be vigorously backed, not only by health boards and doctors throughout the Slate, but by several influential members. The State Board of Health feels that the mere muzzling of dogs, entailing some possible discomfort up on them, as it may, still is infinite \ preferable to an ever-increasing ist of patient® to be treated for rab ies. Dog tax laws always have been unpopular in Georgia, and those that have been passed never have been en- .fnrved. The dogs seems to have plenty of friend® in Georgia -even the "ynl- ler" curs and ‘‘flop-eared’' hound® of the more rural persuasion. Tf the State Board of Health can gucceed in showing conclusively however, that the dogs are getting to be. year by year, a more ami more deadly peril to the people, and par ticularly to children—for they com pose by far the greater portion of the patients treated the chances are that some effective legislation may be ob tained during the forth' ming sum mer session. And, anyway, the board has every it tention of putt ing th< matter up co the General Assembly, fairly and s jtiarely. A member-elect of the incoming Legislature has prepared two com panion bills for the General Assem bly's early consideration, both of «h • i i f fai -reaching ronsoqueiic, and assured of strong support. • One bill will provide for a een- 'r.a 1 point of execution for crime in aj'ital cases —probubh at Milledge- ville- and the other will provide for the substitution of the electric chair l«n the gallows. Both bills are thought to have ex- < client chances of passing the next Legislature. Elaborate arrangements are under way, looking to the sumptuous onter- •nlninent of Josephus Daniels, of North Carolina. Secretary <>f (he Navy when he visits Savannah on or about May 10. It is planned to give him a banquet at the De Soto Hotel, to which a hun dred or more prominent South Geor gians will be invited. The Secretary will be asked to deliver an address at thi® dinner, and to discuss particu larly the navy and its possible rela tion to Savannah, a ad tiu < ust cities of Georgia. Tlie Macon Telegraph should worry nhd get a wrinkle, for this is the lat est obsession it is entertaining: "There is a duty of 45 cents a gal lon on grape juice under the Pay no- Mdrich law and it is retained in the Cnoerwbod bill, but If it is to become a fashionable drink, it will have to go on the free list as a necessary of !fe.' The Moniicello News thinks the next Legislature can increase tin State’s available funds for appro priations to its various institutions by abolishing a few job® around end about.

Mr. Awtry is leaving the Uarleton Shoe Company, after ten years in the shoe business, to become secretary and treasurer of the Barclay <& Bran don Co., which recently moved 11 s es tablishment to Ivy and Baker Streets. The Barclay X- Brandon Co. has been established for 25 years, and Mr. Awtry virtually takes the place left vacant by the death of Mr. Barclay. He will be actively identified with .ill the firm’s details. Mr. A wiry ran claim a host of friends who are pleased to learn of his new connection. treason or something of the sort, first thing it knows. Talk of abolish ing jobs during Democratic times will be rated highly incendiary in cer tain quarters. Colonel ... Lindsay Johnson, 'f Rome, forsook the Shanghai trail long enough this week to run over from Washington to New York, and have a look in on Gay Manhattan. While Colonel Johnson was enjoy ing the Great White Wa\ in one end of tlie nation. Colonel William Jen- ings Bryan was stacking up against California in the other. Never sin’e tlie iniquitous "crime of ’73” ha/e these two Colonels been so far apa . Colonel Johnson’s nomination to lie United States Consul to Shanghai 1® looked for within the next week or ten days. The Railroad Commission will ask the Legislature for authority to or der the erection of union passenger stations in cities and towns in Geor gia, where, in the opinion of the com mission, the conditions make such stations desirable and necessary to the accommodation of the traveling public. The commission now has authority to order the erection of separate sta tions, but it lias no authority what ever in the matter of compelling union station®. The Lavonlu Times refers to hi n as "Commissioner of Agriculture O’Conner.” If the Commissioner now is able to establish the fact that he was born on the 17th of St. Patrick’s Day, he would seem to have the Irish vote cinched, all right. Those esteemed contemporaries around and about Georgia that think Atlanta's recent spasm of grand opera more or less amusing, should drop in next July and August and see the Jaw Jaw Legislature in session.

By B. C. FORBES, Business Editor. In the nev. issue of Hearst’s Maga zine I picture a Rip Van Winkle workman opening his eyes after sleep of a quarter of a century or lea* There is s<» much discontent, so much* pessimism hanging like a black pall over the land to-day that it may not be untimely to reproduce an ex tract here: Picture in your mind a Rip Vau Winkle workman opening hi® eyes on the world of to-day after a sleep of a quarter of »» century or lees. What would he behold? What changes would strike him? Would he be able to believe his eyes? • * * When lie fell asleep- nay 25 years ago he and hi® clas® were slaving from early morning to darkness every day. with no thought of half-holidays or fortnight vacations. They lived in house® that were, outwardly, hovels and enriched with no bath rooms, no hot-und-cold water systems, no hy gienic contrivances such as we know to-day. The world beyond a few miles from thtfr doorsteps w as an unopened book; travel for sightseeing was un known. Places of amusement were few and far between, and the ordinary worker seldom had either the time or the money to patronize them. The one problem about clothes was how to tin 1 enough to cover nakedness and keep warm in winter. Education was well- nigh beyond the reach of the poor. * * * Our Rip Van Winkle workman would stare In bewilderment at mod ern sights and conditions anti listen with Incredulity to the tales he would be told. • • * Ho would see workers living in comfortable, even pretentious, homes, adorned with-appliances and conven iences Hitch as only the wealthy as pired to when he fell asleep. He would see them wearing clothing that a mil lionaire might have envied in his day hail there been millionaires then. H would see public schools tit every turn and every child from f> to 13 or more attending dally, with no tasks (save In rare cases) beyond their lessons. (in all sides theaters would met his gaze, drawing their hundreds and their thousands of Amusement-seek ers nightly. Of sights and wonders beyond Ido home and even beyond the seas he would hear fairylike tales from people who had seen them with their own eyes. Most of all would the changed lot ol the worker, the transformation In con ditions of toll. Impress him. Instead of a twelve and fourteen hours’ day l.e would hear of eight or nine hours’ days' of demands that these hours be further reduced, and that every hour over eight he palj for at a special high rate. • * • His head would buz* with descrip tions of ingenious plans designed to better the life of tils fellows. He would b' told of old-age pensions, of profit-sharing plans, of sick benefits, of workmen’s compensation laws, of minimum wage scales voluntarily* granted. He would learn of co-operative, cost-price stores for corporation em ployees, of recreation halls, dining rooms, and libraries attached to large factories and workshops, of free hos pitals, of weekly half-holidays and regular summer vacations, of extra pay for every hour of overtime, of occasional bonuses at Christmas and princely gifts from retiring or -de ceased employers. He would tlnd trades unions ready at any moment to throw down the gauntlet to an over-reaching firm or corporation, of laws providing for sanitary work places and safety de- \ lees at danger spots, of technical classes and schools organized b> leading corporations for the Instruc tion of ambitious youths, and of in numerable Instances of humble lads having risen to the topmost places of industry and railroading, displac ing the ornamental sons of gifted fathers, hlrth being no longer a guar antee of high position in the world of business. • • • Emancipation 1® not complete- fur. very far. from it. There are still many wrong® to be righted. many . purities to be banished, many dark places to be lighted. The curse of , hiUi Urbor still blots our escutcheon. Starvation wage® are still paid by many employers and a few big: corpo rations. Long: hours are still worked in va rious factories and stores by women In the making:, sapping: the strength and womanhood of the mothers of our men of to-morrow. Seven-day weeks are not yet entirely unknown in a few industries. Then' arc no unions to stand up for lair play in many poorly paid lines of wotk. Sweatshops still blur the picture of modern industry. 4 President Brought Two Leaders To gether on Recent Trip, It Is Just Learned. WASHINGTON, Mu> 4 Tired, but confident that hi® trip to New Jersey will be productive of good result® in connection with Jury reform, Presi dent Wilson returned* to Washington early to-day and at once went to the White House, where he attacked a large amount ef routine work which had accumulated in his absence. one of the incidents of the trip which afforded the President much satisfaction and which did not become known until to-day was his meeting in New York with National Chairman William P. McCombs and Secretary McAdoo of the Treasury Department, at the home of Colonel E. M. House. It was the first time that Chairman McCombs and Secretary Mc Adoo, who was vice chairman, had met since the early days of the campaign. Differ ences of opinion a® to the manage ment of the campaign were said *0 have existed between the two men, though their relations with Mr. Wil son were always of a warm cordiality.
