HELDILLEGAL The Supreme Court of Georgia this afternoon handed down a decision declaring unconstitutional the new' salary act passed by the Legislature to abolish fees for county officers. The decision is a great victory for Fulton County officials, who had been defeated in he lower courts in their attack on the law. and a distinct sur prise to many who had followed the course of the litigation. It had been published that the higher tribunal had already decided that the law was constitutional and should he upheld. The lower court Is reversed on the ground that the legislation Is special and in contravention of that section of the constitution which forbids class legislation. The ruling declares that the whole Rtaie is governed by a system of law's, and that the statutes in question are deliberately aimed for certain citizens of the State. The Supreme Court was unanimous in its decision. Justice Atkinson's 1 signature w r as attached. The contest against the new salary* law In Fulton County was brought by 1 three of the county officers. Tax Col- ! Ipctor A. P. Stewart. Tax Receiver Thomas M. Armlstead and Ordinary John R. Wilkinson. All held that the law was unconstitutional. COLLEGE GAMES. Score: R H E. Williams 3 7 7 Princeton 8 9 1 Cuttes and Lewie: Wood and Wall. Umpires. Sternberg and Cinahan. Score: R. H. E.

To Atlanta will come the next an nual conclave of the Imperial Council of the Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. For the Gate City the Shriners’ convention of 1914 has been won. and to the members of the Yaarab Tem ple belong the honors for this signal triumph. In the forefront of the battle with other contenders for the honor of en tertaining the Shriners were Illus trious Potentate Forrest Adair, Pasi Potentate John A. Hynds, Claude H. Hutcheson. W. A. Foster. Joseph C. Greenfield, Robert L. Golding and Im perial Outer Guard E. A. Cutts, of Sa vannah. To these public-spirited cit izens will go the plaudits of the city for their noble work. Plan Wtlcome to Yaarabs. With flags flying and banners wav ing. Atlanta will give herself over to the victorious army of Yaarab Shrin. ers on their triumphant return home. And the band will play "Lo, the Con quering Heroes Come.” Quickly following upon the flash of victory from Dallas, preparations for a gala reception to Atlanta brigade were set on foot No time Is to be lost. When the Yaarab delega tion with drum corps and patrol ar rive on their special train, probably Sunday morning, they will be met by a reception “than w'hlch there has been no than-whicher.” Probablynot until the city bedecks itself for the conclave which has Just been won for it will such elaborate preparations be made as those now under way to greet the returning victors. Thousands to Greet Victors. Thousands of persons, banked in every street, will meet the special upon its arrival at the Terminal Sta- Ccntinued on Page 2, Column 1. By JAMES B. NEVIN. DALLAS. TEX., May 14.— Atlanta came through with bells on to-day, winning next year's imperial council meeting, notwith standing the fact that at the last moment an effort was made to sidetrack her and break up her hopes. The committee appointed j yesterday by the Imperial Potentate reported in favor of Buffalo, • much to everybody’s surprise, as that town was entered as a dark horse at the last moment. The fight was carried to the fioor and Atlanta won by the fol- owing vote; Atlanta, 230. Buffalo, 85. Memphis, 69. Forrest Adair and his faithful Yaarabs, after one of the finest campaigns ever waged in behalf of Atlanta, will “bring home the bacon. - ’ even as lie promised. “ATLANTA SPIRIT” AGAIN WINS. The things that [tut Atlanta over in this fight were, first of all, that magnificeri Atlanta spirit hicli raised well along toward $1 ()(),()()() for the entertainment of the Imperial Council before a owrd of inviation as extended; second, he mos intelignt and tire less work put forth in Atlanta's behalf by Forrest Adair and his eo-workers. ’ > Adair hardly has slept sjr.ee he arrived in Dallas. His one idea at all times has been to win the fight for next year's meeting. He is the best known Shriner in the South. He has been a regular attendant upon imperial council sessions for eighteen years, and knew good and well how most effectively and most intelligently lo proceed with the work outlinel for him here. 1 doubt that, any other individual in Georgia could so surely have led this fight to a successful finish and with so few mistakes along the way. Of course, here is glory for all, and glory enough to go round, but the major slice of it is Adair s. TO REACH HOME SUNDAY. The Affiants party will divide into two squads, one part going ori a short four of Texas, the other returning home by wav of Hot Springs, Ark. Potentate Adair and his party probably will reach Atlanta Sunday morning. By to-morrow morning Dallas will resemble nothing so much as a deserted banquet hall, but congratulating it self upon one of the most acceptable bunches of good fellows it ever saw gathered together anywhere. Potentate Adair's final message to his home town is; “The victory is ours, as we promised ourselves it shoulsd be. Now let all loyal Atlantans get ready to make next year s session of the imperial council the very best and most enjoyable it ever has known. It can be done, and it will be done, for to do it that wav is to do it Atlanta’s way.’’ MEMPHIS MAKES POOR FIGHT. Memphis was outgeneraled and outfought at every turn of the cards, and the magnificent floor vote accorded Atlanta shows how well Forrest Adair had planned his campaign. It was not thought the imperial potentate would go so far as to fix a committee on the quiet against Atlanta, but apparently this is what he did. He was reported lukewarm to the Gate City last night, but as he was the only imperial officer hostile the im- prssion was that the committee would report in favor of Atlanta. As a matter of fact, it was rumored unofficially last night as standing three to two favorable to Atlanta. Buffalo never was mentioned as a candidate until to-day. Notwithstanding the un expected fight made on Atlanta and the surprising nature of it, there is good feeling among the Shriners and no bitterness will result. Atlanta was magnifleenty vindicated and won with a whoop when the delegates could gt to the voting. The date of the meet ing has not yet been fixed. Atlanta’s great victory is the talk of all Dallas. The wonder ful fight put up. the remarkable courage dispayed and the mag nificent rally from an unexpected hostile development has lifted £ ’i
