FIGHT PLANNED
Slade Will Attempt to Have Leg
islature Repeal Statute Per
mitting Bayonet Rule.
BY JAMES B. NEVIN.
An effort will be made In the next
LeglWlature to repeal that section of
the State military law which now
put* a community In time of riot In
the hand* of the military authorities,
to the exclusion of the Civil Govern
ment.
It la by no means sure that the ef
fect win be aaeceseful. tor the present
•nUltary establishment has many
sans aupporters throughout the
fitmt* bo* K will be beaked aggree-
Slade of Bfuaocsee,
prepared a measure
wttfdh ha thinks win restore the old
enter of thing* In tfrae of rtot, and
yet leave in large proportion undls-
tostrad the other mintary regulations
enacted kg the last General Aeeem-
Vfc.
Ill a regain interview, Mr. Blade
1# quoted as saying, "I am not In
favor of licensing tin horn' soldiers
to shoot down Innocent people In time
of trouble, and then allowing a mili
tary eourt-martlal to sit on the case
and say whether murder has been
oommlttedl"
This statement refers to recent dis
turbances In Augusta where, as an
htcldent to the military control of
the city in time of riot several per
son* wore killed by the soldiers on
duty. The soldiers doing the shoot
ing were subsequently tried by court-
martial and acquitted.
It bar been very well known for
some time that the military laws
were to he attacked In the next Leg
islature, but until the gentleman from
Mnscogee spoke up and notified his
constituents at home that he Intend
ed fathering the measure, much un
certainty hsa existed as to who would
lead the way.
Mr. Slade Is one of the few legis
lative veterans who comes back to
the House this year. He will Intro
duce his proposed antt-mllltary bill
early 1n the session.
A bin will be Introduced In the next
House seeking to make the tax col
lector of Ware County ex-offlclo
Sheriff of the county, In order that
he may proceed to the collection or
levying of tax executions without call
ing on the Sheriff for assistance.
This innovation Is by no means
unheard of In Georgia, though as
several counties now operate under
that system. Wherever It has been
tried, moreover, It generally has been
found to be most satisfactory.
Representative-elect J. R. Palmour,
of Hall, a new member of the Incom
ing Legislature, Is an Atlanta visitor.
MY. Palmour Is a young man of
One business reputation, and will en
ter the House as one of Its most
promising new members. He Is ex
tremely modest In talking about the
things he expects to achieve, and
makes only one claim with a gyres
give emphasis. He says he undoubt
edly Is the “original Burwell man"
among the new- membership, and con
fidently predicts the election of the
gtntleman from Hancock to the
Speakership on the first ballot.
Some time ago, tn cleaning up die
bboOccftse in the Mayor’s office In
Savannah, some valuable reports of
the City of Seta Francisco were
brought to light, and ware found to
concern In detail eighteen years at
the city’s history prior to 1#1J. Thej’
are of comparatively little value to
Savannah, but the thought suggested
itself to the Mayor that perhaps they
might be of considerable value to the
municipal Government of San Fran
cisco, as doubtless many of the rec
ords of that city were destroyed in
the great earthquake and fire.
A letter received by Mayor Rich-
sad J. Davantt from Mayor James
Ralph, of San Frandsco, has confirm
ed this Impression. The Mayor of
Ban Francieoo expresses his gratifica
tion of the offer of the old reports,
stating that of some of them there
are known to be but one or two
dpples In existence, and that they
Would be highly appreciated.
The reports will accordingly he at
gnoe boxed and shipped to the metrop
olis of the Western Stste.
James Callaway, In the Macon Tel
egraph. writes as follows: "Winder
is located, like Metter, at the ‘cor
ners’ of counties. Hence, Winder
wants a new county, and to call It
Barrow, to be taken from the corners
of Walton, Gwinnett and Jackson.
Winder Is many miles from the coun
ty eeats of all three of the counties.
This Is a day of progress and con
venience. The Legislature will con
sider kindly these moves for devel
opment”
Both the proposed new counties of
Barrow and Candler seems, at this
stage of the game, to be viewed with
favorable eye by such members of
the Incoming Legislature as visit At
lanta nowadays.

TEN REASONS WHY YOU
SHOULD JOIN MY BIG CLUB
Qouinrr rtf 01 C1 R H If y° u bou & ht this club Player-Piano in the
udvlllg Ul OiOIiJU 0 p en market, you would pay $650.00 for it.
By my Gigantic Club Plan of 400 members co-operating together, I
am able to offer this Player at $488.50. But this is only the first sav
ing.
flno YpQr’c Trial If I were not interested in the club members,
Ullu I CCll 0 11 Id I j could unload a cheap player and then try
and forget it. That is not the Weatherholt way of doing business.
Try it a year. Then, if you want something else, you may exchange
it and get credit for amount paid.
Tpn-Yoar Pliarantpp T* 161,0 are lots of Player-Pianos I could sell
lull luul UUdlullluuf or considerably less money and make
more profit. But I wouldn’t guarantee them for ten days, to say
nothing of ten years. I KNOW the Weatherholt Club Player and
the people who have been making it for years. That’s why I
GUARANTEE IT FOR TEN YEARS,
I know that if those who purchase my
Club Players live, they will pay for them.
I want their families to have them in case of death. So I guaran
tee that every purchaser will live to pay for it. If he dies, I will
give a receipt in full to his beneficiaries.
These terms are
cheaper than rent
ing an ordinary Player. Why rent an inferior Player when you
can OWN a high-class one for less money? These terms place the
Weatherholt Club Player Piano WITHIN THE REACH OF EV
ERYBODY. There is no excuse for not having a Player-Piano now.
Monthly payments can be arranged.
ALL THESE FEATURES ACCOMPANY IN WRITING
Free Life Insurance
Terms of Payment, $2.50 Per Week
A 25c Rebate on All Weekly Payments Made Before Due
Under this feature the cost of the Player may be reduced almost
$50 more. I want to make the Club Plan as attractive as possible,
and so I added this feature to encourage those who should be re
warded for promptness.
Nn IntprpQt 0nly those who have had ex P erience with P a y in s in ~
HU III luI DO I terest on deferred payments can appreciate this fea
ture. The last payment is no more than the first under my plan.
When interest is charged the last payment is a third more. In
other words, I save each member $78 on each Player.
Two-Year Conservatory Course the ordinary piano, but
who want to learn, I have added this feature. I have arranged with
a successful conservatory for these scholarships. The regular price
is $80. Inasmuch as the Club Player is a Piano and Player-Piano
combined, many like to understand music.
Free Music Exchange Library features ever offered. It
means that I give each Club Member $10.50 worth of music every
day. I give 12 rolls of music worth that with each Player free.
Then these may he exchanged every day if desired for other music in
my 5,000-roll library.
Selected Bench to Match Player and 12 Rolls of Music
This feature amounts to $15. The benches cost $4.50 each, and the
12 rolls of music are worth $10.50. What good is a Player-Piano
without a bench or music? I want each Club Member to get the
Player fully equipped. v, v,
