4 TirE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. DRAWS BILL ID CHECK SALES Death of Sanders Walker Spurs Chatham Legislator—Special Bottles Proposed. B. JAMES B. NEVIN. One of tile members from Chatham proposes to Introduce In the next Leg islatore a bill rigidly regulating the sale and labeling of narcotic drugs In Georgia. Provision will be made for levying a genera; tax on every proprietor or clerk dispensing morphine, cocaim and other drugs of like character, to the extent of $5 a year, and with th< sum thus raised It will be proposed to pay the expenses of a State drug In ventor, whose duty It shall be to keep track of all drug dispensations In gen eral, and of deadly drugs In particular The bill ha* not been worked out In all of Its provisions, but It likely will undertake to regulate the man ner In which narcotic drugs ahull be sold, perhaps prescribing not only bright red labels for all drugs of this character, but some unusual form of package It Ir suggested that ll might help to require all deadly drugs to fie sold In triangular-shaped bottles, with especially prepared ecrew tops. However this may be shaped up eventually, It la the purpose of the member having the matter under con sideration to regulate the sale of nar cotic drugs In such manner as to ren der their accidental use as Improbable as possible, In any and all circum stances. The fatal mistake of young Sanders Walksr In Macon unquestionably has stirred the State In the matter of nar cotic and deadly drug dispensation, and the proposed bill to regulate their sale hereafter, even more rigidly than ever before, likely will receive strong support In the Legislature, and hue more than a good chance to pass. Representative Anderson Rodden- bery, who has been far from well of lale, la spending a few days at Hamp ton Springs, Fla , recuperating. He hopes to get back to Washington within the week, however, to resume his congressional duties. Judge Carl Vinson, former Speaker Rio Tern of the House, now Judge of the City Court of Mllledgevllle, like ly will be a candidate for Congrasi In the next primaries, to succeed Mr. Thomas W. Hardwick. It Is very well known that Mr. Hardwick does not aspire to succeed himself, and has given his more In timate friends to understand as much clearly. Ha has served ten years In the House, achieved a high standing and reputation during that time, and now desires to retire to the practice of law. Mr. Hardwick haa remain*! in Congress at great financial sacri fice, as It Is. Judge Vinson unquestionably will be a atrong eanrildate for the suc cession. He la a fine campaigner, an eloquent speaker and knows his way around very well, indeed. In the mat ters of parliamentary practice and the paths of legislative endeavor. He is immensely popular In his home county of Baldwin and Is well known imvughout the Tenth District. Judge Vinson does not say positive ly that he will be a candidate to suc ceed Mr. Hardwick, but he very pointedly refrains from denying that he will. A Municipal Ownership Club has been organized in Columbus, with T. E. Golden, a well-known manufac turer, as president, and' J. P. lllges, another manufacturer as secretary, having as Its object the creation of sentiment and working for the adop tion of waterworks bonds, which are to be pul before the people of Co lumbus. At present the Columbus water supply Is owned by a private corpo ration. and Mayor Chappell and oth ers axe now at the head of a move ment to hold a bond election for the purpose of floating bonds to be used In building a waterworks system to be owned by the city. Judge Augustus Warwick Fite, the fighting magistrate of the Cherokee circuit, has made a remarkable dis covery—one that fills his heart with axceedlng great joy, moreover! The Judge has found a decision of the State Court of Appeals thut pleases him Immensely, and that lie unqualifiedly approves, even If he does hold that he beat the court to It. The Judge expresses himself as much gratified at the recent decision of the Supreme Court sustaining his views a* to blind tigers, to the effect that all places where whisky Is sold either secretly or openly are blind tigers and can be abated as nuisances at the instance of any citizen, and also at the decision of the Court of Appeals, holding that when a stew ard of a social club sells to the members of the club or anyone else intoxicating I liquors, he Is guilty of violating th. | State prohibition laws, thereby hold ing that all social clubs selling whisky are blind tigers. Judge Fite says he has always held this as the law. but this Is the first time it has been ao held by the higher courts. The first Indictments under the new I law requiring all manufactories to provide seats for female operatives | were returned the other day by the i Muscogee Grand Jury. C. L. Perkins and J. K King, presi- ; dent and superintendent, respective of the Massey-Perkins Hosiery Mill ] in Columbus, have been held to a mis demeanor charge for failure to pro vide seats for female operatives In their factory, as Is required by Jaw, in certain circumstances Whether the cases will be settled or carried to the courts of review as a j test of the new law Is not certain, but \ t,be Impression Is that the cases will not get hvyond the low er courts, I Qdullin' Q1 C 1 RH If you bought this Club Player Piano in the udVllfgf, Ij‘ I 0 I iJu open market, you would pay $650.00 for.it. By my G-igantic 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. One Year’s trial and forget it. If I were not interested in the club members, I could unload a cheap player and then try 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 Pnarsntco T ^ ere are * ots p t a y er Pianos i could sen lull I <ju\ UUds flllluu f 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.

They are worth $650.00 each, and are us ually sold for that price. I have sold many of them at that figure. But because of the large number to be sold to club members, I am able to offer them at $488.50, on terms of $10.00 down, and $2.50 a week. This is what the great purchasing power of the 400 club members co operating together accomplishes. The club price is cheaper than many dealers can buy players for. That’s because they won’t sell in several years what the Weather holt Player-Piano Club will take in a few weeks.
