A TTTE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS TAX ACTS TO BE PASSED AL01C Appropriations Bill, as Framed, Pleases Governor—Needed Revenue To Be Provided. The one disturbing: element in the program of financial legislation as mapped out by Governor Slaton* just prior to the assembling of the Leg islature, and as outlined by him in bis inaugural address, seems more than likely to be removed, thus avoid ing either an Executive veto of the general appropriations bill or an ex tra session of the General Assem- , bly. The general appropriations bill, as framed up in the House and as like ly to be amended in the Senate, will be entirely satisfactory to the Gov ernor, provided sensible and neces sary tax acts are passed to produce the revenue called for. And it may be stated as a fact that the legislative skies have been stead ily clearing for the past few days x with respect to that. . Tax Acts Also Expected. Not only does it now seem likely that the big appropriations bill will go to the Governor ten days ahead of adjournment as he has requested, but the tax acts will accompany it, in order that he may consider all at the same time and * in their exact vital relations to one another. The tax acts will provide the nec essary increase in revenue to cover the appropriations called for, and this increased revenue wall be distributed as equitably and as Justly as possi ble. Chairman Aiken, Vic e Chair man Cole and every member of the Ways and Means Committee, has been constantly at work upon the tax acts of late, to the exclusion of all other business. May Raise Tax Limit. No attempt will be made in the general legislative tax acts, however, to cover the deficit now existing in the State treasury. The Legislature seemingly inclines to propose a con stitutional amendment of limited du ration, providing for an increase in the tax limit of one mill for one year and one-half a mill for a second year, as recommended by th e Governor. This increase will raise something over $1,000,000, which wall wipe out the deficit and leave something to spare for further necessities between this time and the date upon which the amendment, if ratified, can be put in operation. The money thus extraordinarily raised will, of course, pay the com- v rnon school teachers in full and start them off again with a clean slate against the State, and with no dan ger of a future situation of indebt edness such as now exists. Expect Bill to Pass. The bill providing for tax equaliza tion will pass the Legislature. There Is no doubt whatever of tha^ in the minds of those members who have closely observed the trend of events t lately. It will not be the bill the Governor * hoped for, but it wiil be a bill pro viding a plan of tax equalization that can be expanded and perfected by later Legislatures, if it seems to worK to the people’s satisfaction. It will carry provisions for coun ty boards of tax equalizers with a State board of limited powers to su pervise the entire work. The State board will not be permitted to equal ize the assessment of taxpayers, but it will have power to equalize the counties. Measure To Be Compromise. This measure will be a decided compromise between those who are advocating a State board of far- reaching authority and those who ob ject to any State hoard at all. Without, some sort of State board it generally is agreed, however, that tax equalization would bp a complete farce, and not worth while in any particular. The Legislature has eighteen days of life to its credit after to-day. Com pared with other Legislatures, the present one really has worked rapid ly. particularly with respect to the appropriations bill and the tax acts Inasmuch, also, as there is no like lihood that it will lose any more time whatever from Monday forward, it looks as if its labors for the first session of its life will prove to be very satisfactory.

That she was not allowed to tell her story of the shotting before the military court-martial, and that sol diers shot at her brother-in-law after he had called to them not to fire again was the testimony given by Mrs. B. S. Dunbar before the Military Com mittee of the House Friday after noon when the investigation into the Augusta killings of several months ago was taken up. The investigation is being held un der a resolution introduced by Repre sentative Beck, *«\’ Carroll County. The other witnesses were Mrs. Rob ert Christie, widow of one of the men killed; Sheriff John W. Clark, of Richmond County; Palmer Christie and L. M. Dohme, of Augusta. They wcrr» represerted by Clem E. Dunbar, former member of the House. Mrs. Dunbar charged that one of the officers told her he had become ex cited during the shooting and or dered his men to shoot promiscuous ly, but that Major Claude Smith had refused to allow her to testify to this effect. When she asked Major Levy why she had not been allowed to tell her story' correctly before the court- martial, she said he replied that the military must be protected. “For God’s sake, don’t shoot. Don’t you see 1 am trying to stop my ma chine?” are the words which she as serted Christie told her he said to the soldiers. “He was on his way to my home in his automobile to get his wife. He saw the soldiers, but thought nothing of It. They fired at him and he attempted to stop and called to them not to shoot again, but they Hired another volley and wounded him in one of his lungs, w hich caused his death a short while afterward.” When the hearing is resumed Tues day it probably will continue each afternoon through the.week. Practi cally every military officer who was on duty in Augusta, as well as many privates, will be summoned to ap pear before the committee. They Are Eating Off The Mantel in Philly PHILADELPHIA.

At one Walnut street ehop one-third of the girls are away with boils, while at another fashionable place one- half the employees are unable to sit down. Physicians attribute the outbreak to the recent heated term. Contest Editor Deluged With Pic tures—Thought of Big Task Gives Him Nightmare. Recently Governor Slaton refused to be the judge in the selection of 500 portraits of Atlanta youngsters for the Temple of Childhood at the Pan ama-Pacific International Exposition, on the grounds that the job was too difficult because there were so many good-lookers. The Beauty Contest Editor is keep ing aw T ake these nights, and when he has managed to get a bit of sWp, he has had nightmares, for fear that the same sort of thing is going fo happen to his contest. Honestly, there are just so many beauties being nominated every day that The Georgian photographers are actually scrapping among themselves to decide who shall make the picture. The latest one submitted is that of Miss Elinor Macy, only daughter of Mrs. Grace Keefer, of 80 East Four teenth street. Miss Macy made her debut recent ly and is regarded as one of Atlanta’s fairest. She has fair skin and dark blue eyes, with a wealth of rich dark brown hair. That she will get many votes is predicted by her friends. Who’s the next one? “Watch Atlanta—she’ll get you yet! 500,000 by 1920!” SISTER OF ATLANTA MAN DIES. BUFFALO, July 26.—Mrs. Ellen V.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY. No Eligible List of Assistants to Recently Named Atlanta Inter nal Revenue Collector. An unusual situation will arise upon the transfer of the office of Internal Revenue Collector, when a special agent arrives in Atlanta August 1. The retiring Collector, Henry S. Jackson, fears hsi successor, A. O. Blalock, of Fayetteville, will be placed in an embarrassing position. “The (’ollector of Internal Revenue is the only office,” said Mr. Jackson, “which really has no fixed term. All other appointive offices in the Gov- erorntni service are for four years, hut the Collector’s term is subject to the will of the President alone. “When a Collector of Internal Reve nue goes out of office, the terms of his deputies expire automatically, for they are appointed by him.” said Mr. Jackson. “At present there is no eligible list, and when I go out >f office, there will, therefore, be no deputies "If my successor, Mr. Blalock, sees fit, he may appoint my deputies, but after appointing them he can not dis charge them without good cause, for a man is never dismissed from th<j Government service, after he qualifies by civil sci vice examination, except for some disdemeanor. “No civil service examination for deputies will be held until August 15, and it will be September before the results arc known. In the meantime, I am sure the Government will not he content to let the Atlanta office run without deputies. 1 am sorry for Mr. Blalock and hope the matter can in some way be adjusted so his friends will not be disappointed.’' SPECIAL NOTICE! Wilton Jellico COAL July Delivery Only Place Your Order at Once JELLICO COAL CO. 82 PEACHTREE ST. Ivy 1583 Atlanta 3668 WASHINGTON, Jo''- 26.—Ambas sador Henry Lane Wilson reached the office of Secretary of State Bryan to-day and expressed his views on the Mexican situation. The interview with Bryan was preliminary to the one which the envoy will hold with President "Wilson. The Ambassador’s first act on his arrival here to-day was to repudiate almost entirely the interviews sent out from New York last night. “Most of the statements attributed to me this morning are absolutely false,” he said. “I did not call Gen eral Carranza a bandit or refer to the revolutionary movement as a campaign of bandits, nor did I say that all talk of mediation was rot. No Chance for Mediation. "I did say that a board of media tors going into Mexico at the present time would have as much chance as a board of arbitrators in the midst of strike conditions that prevailed in West Virginia some months ago. I am not to be placed In the attitude of being a mere press agent for Huerta.” The conference between Secretary Bryan and Ambassador Wilson last ed about 45 minutes. It will be re sumed at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Mr. Bryan was forced to suspend the in terview at 11 o’clock to keep an en gagement with the Foreign Relations Committee of the Senate to discuss the proposed Nicaraguan treaty and the Mexican situation. Bryan stated that Ambassador Wil son would not see President Wilson before Monday. He declined to dis cuss the interview with the Ambas sador. Only One Real Revolt. “There is only one bona fide rev olution with high ideals in Mexico,” continued the Ambassador. “That is the revolution in the State of So nora, headed by Governor Pasquiera. They are fighting for states’ rights and doing no looting.” The Ambassador said the Huerta government was “strong and virile," and that, if recognized by the United States, it could establish peace. He denied, however, that he ever said he favored recognition by this country “I am not here to advise the Presi dent on any course,” he added, “but to make a first-hand report on condi tions. Personally, I never recognized the Huerta government.” After Secretary Bryan left for the Capital, Ambassador Wilson started t<J . on a lengthy written report which he will present to President Wilson on Monday. He declined to discuss the plans of mediation which it is proposed the Lnited States shall undertake. Has Prepared Policy. Ambassador Wilson said he has pre pared a “perfectly definite, complete policy, lined in memorandum foi-m, " hioh the United States should pur sue in Mexican affairs.” The Ambassador indicated his dis pleasure at the sending to Mexico of special representatives. “I might take this opportunity to say J resent any statement in any newspaper that I am to be interro gated during my stay in Washington in regard to my personal affairs,” said Ambassador Wilson, “The President and Secretary of Stwte have given me no indication of such a situation, and they have shown me tne greatest con sideration, except in one thing—the sending to Mexico, on behalf of the President. It is said, of William Bay ard Hale, the magazine writer, and of Reginald H. DelVaille, on behalf of the Secretary of State, to make per sonal Investigations. “William Bayard Hale and Reginald H. VelVaille are equipped with secret copies of the State Department code. I know that assistance in the use of the code was sought from one of the secretaries of the American Embassy in Mexico City. I think if the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations knew of it there would be an investigation. "William Bayard Hale got to Mex ico City and gave his views on public questions the first day he was there. The Huerta Government people there say he came to Mexico with a brief of conditions from the Maderistas.” Legislature Praised By Governor Slaton Words of praise for the work of the Legislature were spoken by Governor Slaton Friday night at a banquet given to the Ways and Means Com mittee of the House at the Capital City Club by Chairman L. R. Akin. “I have every confidence in the gen tlemen composing the Georgia Legis lature this year. I do not believe I have ever seen a finer and more effi cient body,” the Governor said. President J. Randolph Anderson, of the Senate, and Crawford Wheatley, chairman of the Appropriations Com mittee. spoke on the subject of tax reform.

It was reported to-day that Post master Hugh McKee will not be outsert. but iv111 be allowed to finish out his term, which expires some time between January 1 and 15, 1914.

"All New to Me,” He Says. Mr. .McKee has arrived home from Washington, New York and other Eastern points In company with his daughter, Mies Jessie, whom he met ftt the steamer on her return from Paris, where she has been studying for the past year. "I have rea.d the published reports to the effect that 1 would be ousted." said Mr. McKee, "but the papers know more about It than I do and I haven't anything to say except that it's all Greek to me. "Mv visit to Washington was most pleasant. I had a long talk with the FI rut Assistant Postmaster. He was most courteous and showed me about the Capitol. Says Atlanta Shall Judge. “Of course, I do not know what the reporis of the Postoflice Inspector contained. If they found inefficiency in the Atlanta office I never knew that it existed. "So far as these Inefficiency charges are concerned, and 1 am not mire that any were made officially 1 will place myself before the citizens of Atlanta to be Judged. They know w hether tlie> an getting good service or not and they arc the only people really competent to Judge.” WOMAN'S BODY FOUND. COLCMBUS.—The body of Doll!
