Opposing factions of Kirkwood
voters Monday found they would have
to wait a week before knowing who
would be their next Mayor, court
proceedings in the contest being set
for December 26. Two courts will be |
involved.
More than a hundred Kirkwood
men, most of them supporters of W.
E. Saunders in his recent race for |
Mayor, appeared early at the Decatur |
courthouse to give evidence of alleged
frauds and misdemeanors in the mu—l
nicipal election, but Justice J. M.
Giles could find no place to take evi
dence, the courthouse being occupled
by other tribunals. He deferred the
hearing until Tuesday of next week.
In the meantime, Mayor R. F. Gil
liam, who was not a candidate fnr!
re-election, has not proclaimed the
election of his successor. The law
requires that this be done in tendays
after election, which expired. Satur
day. Mayor Gilllam was served that
day with a mandamus from Judge C.
W. Smith ordering him and members
of the Kirkwood Council to appear on
December 26 and show cause why he
should not make the proclamation.
“lI was about to call a meeting of
Council to act in 4he matter when 1
learned through The Georgian Satur
day that the mandamus was being
asked,” said Mayor Gilllam Monday. |
“I then decided it would be better m’
act upon the instructions of the court |
rather than upon my own discre- |
tion. Besides, our hands had been |
tied by the notice that a contest had
been filed.’
L. J. Cassels, the first count re
vealed, was elected Mayor by enly 19
votes. Some Councilmen on his ticket
were elected, it was said, and some
on Saundors’ ticket were elected. The
defeated Sounders men filed notice of
a contest.

Cleveland May Get '
Wood and Caldwell
ood and Caldwell
e !
It appears very much as if the Cleve
land Indians will have two talented ad
ditions to their pitching staff next sum
mer if there is any truth in current ru
mors The report Is being spread that
Joe Wood and Ray Caldwell will per~l
form for the Indians next summer.
~ Joe Wood digd not work last season. |
After a little Indisposition® at the close
of the 1915 season he showed up late
last summer ready to work and demand
ing a raise in pay. In an interview he
}h:nl with J. J. Lannin, the owner of
the Red SBox, in the middle of last sum
mer, Joe said he was as fit as he had
ever been, but Lannin couldn’'t see his
ldemnnda and so Wood went home to hig
farm.
It is unlikely that Joe will remain
idle next season. It is also unlikely that
the Boston Red Sox's new owners will
turn down a good offer for the star
There is much to sué)_purt the idea that
Joe will join the Indians, especially as
In is known that Jim Dunn, president
of the Indlans is eager to strengthen
his team.
‘ Ray Caldwell’'s behavior with the
Yanks has put him in bad with his
employers and he most likely will ap
pear elsewhere next yvear It ig certain
lthat in congenial surroundings Caldwell
would be wne of the leading pitchers of
the league. If the Cleveland Indians
l-:m grab him they will be well forti
fled in the pitching department.

What with Christmas and other expenses, it might
be several months before you find yourself ready to
boot that old cookstove out of your wife's or your
mother's kitchen and put in its stead an up-to-date
and laborsaving Gas Range.
But by making the new Gas Range ONE of your Christmas
purchases, you connive with old Santa to ease up her kitchen
werk right now. /
Also you do yourselfl a good turn. Your food
will taste better. It'll be COOKED better
And, furthermore, you line your pocketbook
with some shekels saved. The prices of Gas
Ranges go UP on January 1
And what's more, a $2 Rutz “pressthe
button™ lighter comes free with the range that
is bought before Christmas
If the new Gas Range already is In place and at work, what about
a Gas Water Heater? Hot water a-plenty, just when you want It
makes living more comfortable. It's a real necessity,
And if you've got both the Range and the Water Heater, what
about one of those dandy little Gas Room Heaters for Christmas—the
kind that lets you get up and dress in comfort on cold mornings. One
sort costs §2. Another costs up to $6. The best of all cost $9 and sl2

melodies. There are typical Hungarian

ROME, Dec. 18.—County Warden J.
C. Penn forced County Engineer
Lindsey Saturday to surrender a let
ter at the point of a pistol, and the
affair is now the talk of the county.
Bad feeling has existed between the
two men for some time, nwing to
charges of insubordination having
been filed against the warden with
the State Prison (ommission by the
County Board of Roads and Revenue,
of which the County Engineer is an
appointee,
The County Engineer was at the
chaingang camp in the course of his
work, and he accepted from a negro
a letter to be sent to the county
board. Presumably, the letter con
tained a complaint.
The warden learned that the Coun
ty Engineer had the letter, and de
manded it of him. On his refusal to
give it up, the warden went to his
cabin, got a big pistol, and again de
manded the letter. This time he got
it, but the affair probably will reach
the State Prison Commission.
