4^ JAMIS B.NEVON
Augusta i* very happy over a pros
pective visit from former Hresld ut
Taft, who expects to spend several
weeks during April at the’ Bon Air
Hotel, out in the Sandhills district
Augusta is genuinely fond of the
former Chief .Magistrate of th** na
tion, and its affection is abundantly
and enthusiastically returned.
Mr. Taft makes no bones of saving,
at any old time and in am old pla< •*■,(
that he had rather visit in Augusta
than anywhere he knows of on this
earth! He likes Augusta frankly be
cause Augutita makes home folks” of
him. and always has, even when'll?
was the President He. is treated with
all the dignity and consideration his
distinguished position before the na
tion entitles him to, but there
never anything strained or stilted
about the reception he gets in Au
gusta or tHe cordiality of his contin
uous welcome while there.
It is for that same reason that John
D. Rockefeller gets so-much pleasure
from his annual visits to .Augusta.
The Oil King has said that he llk'-s
Augusta because the natives of that
burg never seem mindful of the fa t
that he is Mr. Rockefeller. He is per
mitted to ramble around town as he
likes, to drop in on a neighbor to pass
the time o' day, or into a shop to buy
a necktie, and nobody pays any ■par
ticular attention to him, save by way
of coUt*t#oui and not at oil ostenta
tious salutation or reciprocal line of
talk
Concerning Mr. Taft’s forthcoming
visit The Augusta Chronicle says: "It
was understood some time ago that
Mr. Taft would spend his winter va
cation in Augusta but, we believe,
prior to this it was not definite’y
known just when he was to come. It
is needless to say that there will be in
Augusta, by all Atigustans, for Mr.
Taft the warmest kind of a welcome.
In truth, as he would put 1t himself,
he Is ’coming hone’ to spend a fort
night or so with the ’home folk.’ ’’
Another test prohibition case Ps
coming to the Supreme Court from
Savannah, .and upon its disposition
will depend a very great dead of the
future of prohibition law enforcement
in (ieorgla.
Three licensed near-beer dealers In
Savannah, recently restrained from
“selling intoxicating liquors, which is
prohibited by law," have been held to
be in contempt of court by Judge
Charleton, of the Superior Court, for
violating that injunction, .and tinea
$200 each.
These cases will now' come on to
Ili• • court of review, for that hig 1
body to say whether a judge mnv pat*
finally upon matters of fact in this
manner, or whether it is necessary for
a Jury to say that the injunction his
been violated.
If Judge Charleton is sustained by
the court of review, it will mean a big
victory for the prohibitionists. If, ou
the contrary, he is reversed and held
to be without authority to say when,
as a matter of fact, a defendant ’H
guilty of having violated the prohibi
tion law, unless a jury pass upon t]jo
fac ts, it will be hailed as a big victory
for those persons onnosed to extreme
prohibition in Georgia.
In the light of some recent deci
sions. the impression among lawyers
generally is that the Savannah judg“
likely will be reversed, but Uie ques
tion now coining up from his court is
shaped not exactly after a similar
fashion to those cases heretofore
ruled upon.
Representative J^O. Adams, of Hal 1 ,
is in Atlanta for a row days.
Mr. Adams i« serving his second
term as a member of the Legislature
from Hall County, and likely will be
returned to (he next House. He has
been mentioned prominently for Con
gress in his district, but he declares
his ambitions do not run In that di
rection. Indeed, he* is more or less
reluctant to, stand for the House
again, hut his constituents seem to
feel that his place would be hard to
fi'.l satisfactorily, and pressure has
ben brought to bear upon him to the
end that he may be* re-elected, an!
probably without opposition.
Mr. Adams is a practicing attorney
in Gainesville, and his services in the
Legislature annually involve a consid
erable financial sacrifice upon his part.
%
If Warren Grice, of HawKintviilv.
isn't appointed judge >>f the Court of
Appeals to succeed Judge .Pottle, it
will not be because he has not had
enthusiastic and influential friends
working for him in Atlanta. One of
the biggest delegations appearing in
any candidate’s interest went before
the Governor in Mr Grice’s behalf
Tuesday, headed by “Billie” Wooten,
of Albany. The Governor gave this
delegation a perfectly respectful hear
ing, hut when last heard from still
was sawing wood.
And, then, there is Candidate Wade,
of Dublin. The Governor is obliged
to have him very muob in mind, be
cause they are* lifelong friends ami
were roommates at College—a mighty
strong tie, and particularly with a
man like the Governor.
And, then, once more, there is Judge
Sellers, of Baxley and Judge
And. besides, Judge Pottle hasn’t
yet sent in his resignation!

aggressive as ever, has been taking a

.fudge Fite hurried back to Carters

also has a few real nifty fights of one
sort and another on his bands.

Daniels’ Invitation
To New Year’s Fete
Stirs Naval Circles
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.—Naval of

issued at the Navy Department:
“The Secretary of the Navy and Mrs.
Daniels will be at home at Single Oak
from 2 b> 7 p. m., on New Year’# Day.
Wives and other female relatives of
callers will be cordially welcomed.”
Members of officers’ families who pre
sume that they must be meant by the
designation "female relativfjs” feel that
they have not been flattered.
As a result of comment, responsi
bility for the order is dodged. It bears
the signature of Rear Admiral Victor

it after it had been dictated by the

I N a statement, in which it substitutes fiction for fact, the Chicago Tribune asserts that it has a
* larger net paid city circulation than any other Chicago morning newspaper. ,
I-ye^t anybody whom it may concern should be deceived into mistaking bluff for genuine circu
lation, the Chicago Examiner makes the following proposal:
That aO the Chicago morning newspapers open up their circulation books and
records to the Association of American Advertisers and to such other represent
ative bodies as may be selected.
The Chicago Examiner herewith agrees to have this investigation made and it
herewith invites the Association of American Advertisers to take the first step
to bring this about.
The investigation, under these auspices, would he fair and square, comprehen
sive and comparative. It would remove all doubt in the minds of national ad
vertisers and Chicago merchants as to the circulation, particularly the city
circuhttkm, of each of the four Chicago morning newspapers.
V v
* The period for this investigation shall be thesix months beginning July 1,1913,
and ending December 31, 1913.
If any one of the other morning newspapers of Chicago refuses to open up its
books and records, then the Chicago Examiner agrees herewith to have a joint
investigation made with the remaining Chicago morning newspapers.
If all of the other morning newspapers refuse to open their books and
records, then the Chicago Examiner herewith agrees to submit to this
investigation alone because the Chicago Examiner insists on proving
its own circulation.
T HF. CHICAGO .EXAMINER lronevtlv believes that this investigation will prove that its
city circulation is far in excess of any other Chicago morning newspaper, both Daily and
Sunday. * •
Jmm m •
The Chicago Examiner honestly believes that this investigation will further show that the net
paid -Sunday circulation of the Chicago Examiner is almost double that of its nearest competitor.
