TIE TARIFF VOTE
IN THE SENATE
Speaker William H. Burwell has
taken a firm hand in the adjustment
of the difference existing in the Ways
and Means Committee of the House
with respect to a tax equalization
measure, and has read the riot act
to that honorable body.
The Speaker, who, although he ip
the Speaker, is not divested in any
way of his representative capacity,
will take the floor, if necessary, and
flght for a tax equalization measure
that means something, and that will
Insure a State board of as great ef-
| fectiveness as may be secured.
The Speaker takes the position that
neither extreme of opinion in the
Ways and Means Committee, or any
where else In the Legislature, should
he permitted to control or block leg
islation to its way of thinking.
Insists They Get Together.
He, therefore, when the 'Ways and
^ Means Committee seemed to be hope
lessly split, called upon the heads of
the two factions therein and told
them very plainly that they must get
together, or he might be compelled,
against his will, to undertake to And
a means of getting them together.
The Speaker insisted that ii was
not so much a question of getting
this or that tax equalization measure
through, with all of its provisions just
so, as it was a question of, at least,
getting things started toward genuine
fcnd honest tax reform.
To pass an equalization measure
without any sort of State board to
equalise the counties would, the
Speaker thinks, not be to pass such
a meaemre as the people desire or as
•would be effective
On the other hand, the Speaker is
willing to concede that it may not be
necessary now to insist that the
State board have too wide authority
or be made arbitrarily supreme.
Seeks to Bring About Order.
In other words, with a split in the
committee already in evidence and a
split on the floor of the House loom
ing as a grave probability, the Speak
er has intervened, both as the Speak
er and as the Representative from
Hancock County, to bring order out
of chaos, if possible, and, in the in
terest of economizing time, to hasten
along the matter of tax reform.
The Speaker is an earnest advocate
of prompt payment for the school
teachers, and he also is heartily in fa
vor of revising the tax laws thorough
ly and effectively. He, perhaps, per
sonally inclines to a more drastic and
effective tax equalization measure
than now seems possible to secure
from the House.
His attitude is, however, that even
••half a loaf is better than no bread,”
and that the interests of the State de
mand a getting -together of the war
ring factions inside the Ways and
Means Committee, as paving the way
to an approximately satisfactory com-
* promise measure on the floor.
Speaker’s Stand Effective.
The direct result of the Speaker’s
tnterference was a reassembling of
the Ways and Means Committee and
the recommendation of a measure
carrying a State Board of Tax Equal
izers of limited powers and discre
tion.
His hearty insistence that he would 1
take the floor In person, and, if nec
essary, lead the fight on a tax equal!-
Eation measure proposing to elimi
nate entirely the State Board, un
doubtedly has had a profound effect
on the situation.
The Speaker is determined that the
House, at least, shall not permit tax
reform to be a failure, if he can pre
vent it. And he is willing to go the
limit of his responsibility, if neces-
eary, in getting things shaped up as
they should be.
Chamberlain’s Decision to Vote
Independent of Party Lines
Imperils Passage of Bill.
WASHINGTON, July 21.—Senator
Chamberlain, of Oregon, announced
to-day that he would not be bound by
the Senate Democratic caucus to vote
for the Underwood-Simmons tariff
bill. This leaves only 48 Democratic
Senators upon which the Democrats
c an rely to support the measure and
makes the vote of Vice President
Marshall necessary to break a tie if
Chamberlain bolts on the final vote.
“I want it understood,” said Cham
berlain, “that as a Senator from Ore
gon 1 am absolutely free to support
what is right in this matter. I am
not bound to support this or any other
measure. What I want is the truth-
light.”
Chamberlain did not state he would
vote against the bill, and his Demo
cratic colleagues were of the opinion
that he would be found among the
faithful when the bill comes to a
vote.
Senator Burton, of Ohio, Republi
can, attacked in the Senate to-day the
ad valorem duties in the Underwood-
Simmons tariff bill; denounced as fals-
Democratic predictions that the bill
would reduce the cost oL living, and
critcised the measure for its “free
trade tendencies.”
Burton declared that members of
the Democratic party admitted the
Underwood - Simmons tariff bill
would not reduce the cost of living.
He quoted from a “signed interview”
by Secretary of Commerce Redfteld.
in which Redfleld termed the benefit
to be derived from the tariff bill
“moral and mental,” and stated that
no "intelligent man expects it (the
bill) to be more than a step toward
the reduction of the cost of living.”
“I believe that the proposed meas
ure te based on theories which are
erroneous and that its adoption will
prove disastrous to our industrial ac-
tlvites and to the whole framework
of our economic and social life,” said
Burton.
“Furthermore, it will not accom
plish the beneficial results which are
claimed.
"The business of the country, its
industrial life, had adjusted itself to
a party of protection. For 50 years
ihe prevailing rates have been high.
I We can not change from these rates
I in a single year without widespread
injury. The proposed changes are
without precedent in the fiscal history
of our own or any other country.”

Daniels Blamed by
Socialists for Riots

of the rioting of Friday night and

MACON, July 21.—Dr. W. N. Ains
worth charged from the pulpit at the
Mulberry Street Methodist Church
last night that the saloon men and
their friends have organized a boy
cott against the fifty members of the
Law Enforcement League who last
w^ek signed a petition for an injunc
tion against the saloons and social
ClUuS.
“A devout member and faithful offi
cial of this church lost his position
last night because he signed the pe
tition,” declared Dr. Ainsworth, who
organized the campaign against the
liquor interests. He further declared
that the boycott was planned to ex
tend to men in business, as well as to
procure the discharge of salaried men
who participated in the movement,
and proposed to hlacklist all men ca
tering to public trade who allowed
their names to go on the petitions.
He declared that if this boycott con
tinued the courts will be invpked for
aid and protection.
At the same time that this sermon
was preached the Rev. T. F. Callo
way at the Second Street Baptist
church declared that “Macon is rot
ten to the core, being the widest open
city in Georgia.” He attacked the
city administration for the alleged
conditions.
MacFarlane Jones’
Infant Will Survive
RICHMOND, July 21.—The infant

wife died at her home in Atlanta last
Wednesday, probably will live, its at

city, 6ay, although its life was hang
ing by a thread for two days after its
mother’s death. The child, a boy, was
brought here with the body of Mrs.
Jones, whose funeral took place in
this city.
Mr. Jones is connected with the
Barron G. Gollier Agency in Atlanta.
Press Table Suddenly Becomes
Attractive to Lawmakers and
Sessions Lose Monotony.
Members of the House are finding
excuses to hang around the press
table; the young men of the press
have found such expressions as
“brown eyes,” “wavy hair,” and “suf
fragette” mysteriously creeping into
their copy; Speaker Burwell has
found trouble in keeping his eyes
on the north side of the House and
Clerk John Boifeuillet has experienced
the greatest difficulty in calling the
roll.
The reason—well. It’s the press
table’s nomination for the Booster
Button Girl in Atlanta's beauty con
test—Miss Mary Rosa Johnson, a
monopoly of feminine pulchritude,
who has become a regular member
of the House newspaper delegation.
Miss Johnson “just strolled in,”
coming with her friend, Mrs. Mar
garet McWhorter, who has been ac
corded the privilege of the press
table this season. Her visit created
a demand for her continuous presence
there. Accordingly appropriate res
olutions were drawn up and unani
mously adopted, beseeching her to act
as guardian of the press table for the
balance of the session.
Miss Johnson is a real honest-to-
goodness suffragette. It took her
about one minute to convert the press
gang to’The cause of suffrage, w’hile
the Legislators fell in the suffrage
column in rapid order. A strong
effort was made by a youth presiding
over the Senate press table to in
veigle her to their side of the Capitol,
but a comparison of “the gangs”
brought her back to the House in
short order.
“Oh. I think it is great to be here,”
she said. “You know I am a suf
fragette, and I like to see the Leg
islators at work, because they act
so funny. Does anybody in the world
know what they are talking about?”

MOUaNTAIN LAKE PARK. MD..
July 21.—"If an annual salary of
$12,000 for the Secretary of State is
not sufficient to maintain him and his
family in a manner befitting the dig
nity of the high office, would you
advocate an increase in that salary?”
This question was asked William
Jennings Hryan, Secretary of State,
after he had delivered a Chautauqua
lecture for which he received $250.
“No. I would not advocate an in
crease,” replied Mr. Bryan. "The
ewlary is sufficient to meet the ex
penses of the Secretary of State when
those expenses are confined to his
home and official life.
His Case Different.
“This, however, is not the case with
me. The fact ought not to be over*
looked, and it ought not to be neces
sary for me to mention, that in mv
life are certain fixed charges whicn
must be met. These charges, with my
living expenses and expenses inciden
tal to my position exceed my salary.' 1
“Is your farm a paying proposi
tion?” was asked.
“It is a liability. It is not an as
set,” Mr. Bryan replied.
"Is your life insured?”
“Yes. The premiums are fixed
charges. When a man abandons his
home and takes an office he leaves
behind him at hls» old home expenses
which he cannot avoid. Every man
in public life knows that I am not
delivering lectures with a view o/
adding to my accumulations. I am
working to meet my expenses.
“I must keep intact whatever money
f have accumulated for my old age
and for my family.
His Tongue Might Warp.
"I cannot expect to be a bread
winner when infirmities of age over
take me.
"However, i do not care to make
detailed explanations for my acts.
Those acts speak for themselves. I
have never hidden nor concealed my
acts. I know I am right and I shall
proceed accordingly. My statement
of a few days ago still stands.”
“Then you will continue to deliver
Chautauqua lecutres?”
“Yes; and the public service will
suffer no injury. My engagements
are such that they can be cancelled
at a moment’s notice. I shall not
be far from Washington at any time. '
The subject of Mr. Bryan’s lecture
here was “The Making of a Man.”
It was delivered in a big auditorium
tent before 1,000 persons, who paid
$1, 75c or 25c each admission. The
total receipts were far in excess of
$250.
Away from Post 38 Days.
This is the thirty-eighth day Mr
Bryan has been absent from his post
since his appointment as Secretary of
State on March 4 r one hundred and
thirty-five days ago.
He 4s advertised to lecture at Gary,
Ind., next week.
As Secretary of State. Bryan’s sal
ary of $12,000 a year pays him $38.46
a day, counting every day in the year
except Sundays.
As a lecturer, Mr. Bryan receives
$250 a night guarantee and a per
centage of the receipts, besides all
expense?.

they were in the car they leveled re
volvers at the chauffeur and ordered
him to drive toward East Point, ac
cording to his story.
The car was found in a ditch near
East Point Sunday morning. The

Retail merchants from all parts o!
Georgia gathered in Atlanta Monday
for their annual convention, which
will remain in session Tuesday and
Wednesday. The first sessions were

drafted.
The bills aro likely to meet opposi

of box car letters to tell the story.
But a BARGAIN like this offered over Rich’s uame requires
merely the briefest announcement.
These are real linen laces in the charming Cluny patterns.
Since every thread is purest linen, they will wash and wear indefinitely.
Hand loom work, hence the designs are intricate, interesting and artistic.
Matched sets of edges and insertings, in widths from 2 1-2 to 5 inches.
Not a yard worth less than 19c; many worth 25c; a few even 30c and more. Choice, 9o.
