Augusta, Ga, .June IS.—Columbus
gets the next president of the league
of Georgia Municipalities and Athens
the next annual meeting. This was
decided yesterday afternoon at the
closing sessloh, which was held In the
pavilion at the Locks.
There were fully 160 at the meeting
and every city represented voted on the
next meeting place, as this was the
only point that had opposition.
All of the old officers were pushed up
one place and one new one named for
the fourth vice president. The officers
are:
President, L. H. Chappell, of Colum
bus; first vies president, Hermann My
ers, -of Savannah; second vice presi
dent, E. hi. Smith, of McDonough;
third vice president, T. W. Cochran, of
Bamavllle; fourth vice president, J.
A. Simms, of Richland; secretary and
treasurer, Bridges Smtth, of Macon;
representative to National League
treasurer, Bridget Smith, of Macon;
J. A. Simms Is the only new person
elected to the list of officers.
Mayor Allan, of Augusta, was nomi
nated for the national representative,'
but declined the honor, stating that It
would be Impossible for him to attend, i
A very high honor was paid Mayor
Allen, of Augusta, by the members of
the league, making him a Ilfs member
without dues. This was done by tha
unanimous consent of the members of
the body.
There was a 1 general discussion on
the matter of extending the league Into
a trl-state league, but It was decided
that this would be unwise, and the res
olution that was presented by Mayor
Chappell, of Columbus,.was laid on the
tabic. Mayor James Wooda’srd, of
Atlanta, led the light against the ex
tension, but hs claimed that It would
not hurt Atlanta nor some of the other
large cities In the state, but that the
little follows would suffer from It. May
or Woodward was sustained In his ar
gument by Dr. J. B. Morgan, of Augus
ta, and a number of the mayor* from
the smaller cities, they claiming that If
the league was expanded they would
not be able to etay In It.
Dr. J. B. Morgan, of Augusta, pre
sented a resolution asking that ths
league go on record as fnvorlng the
Introduction of Immigrants Into the
state.
Dr. Brunner, the health officer from
8avannah, led the opposition to the
movement and stated that If there was
a law sufficient to make the negroes
go to work that the country would be
better. He declared that he could fur
nish ten counties with Idle negroes
from Savannah If there was a law to
cover the situation. He advocated a
more stringent vagrant law. A vote

SHOWN BY RECOUNT
A long summer vacation will be given
the 1610 exposition,
Not until October 8 will there be any
more effort made to secure the 8110,066
which remains to be raised to secure
the half million dollar guarantee fund,
It was ao decided at the meeting of the
committee of Afty held In the Chamber
of Commerce Thursday afternoon. This
Important step was token after careful
consideration of all points Involved and
It was the conaenaua that to continue
the work during the dull summer days
when half of Atlanta was out of the
city, when business will be at Its low
tide and enthusiasm on the wane,
would be an Irreparable mistake.' In
the autumn the work will be taken up
with new life and pushed to speedy
success*.
The meeting Thursday was wall at,
tended. After a short address. Chair,
man R. F. Maddox requested Secre
tary Walter O. Cooper, to read two
communications, one from himself to
8. M. Inman, asking for an opinion on
putting off further exposition work un
til the fall and the other Mr. Inman’s
reply.
Hugh T. Inman, W, L. Peel, James
W. English, Sr., Governor Terrell and
Asa O. Candler made short addresses
on the subject and all were of the
opinion that tha matter should be laid
over.
President J. Wills. Pope explained
ihat he had not been In attendance at
many of the meetings because of bus
iness, but that In the fall he Would be
able to give to the exposition much of
his time.
Mr. Inmsn’s Letter.
It was then unanimously resolved
that the canvass be suspended until
a meeting of the committee to be held
October 8, In accordance with Mr. In
man's communication, which reads:
.‘‘Atlanta, .Gs, June If,. 1606.—lion.
Robert F. Maddox, chairman. My Dear
Mr. Maddox; In response to your very
kind letter of June 8, 1 beg to say that
I am sincerely of the opinion that your
committee should suspend the canvass
for subscriptions to the exposition fund
until next autumn. The season of dull
ness, In many lines of business, will
come with the mid-summer heat. Many
of the clttsena, and no doubt many of
the members of your committee, will be
away on summer vacations.
"When we consider the work your
committee has done In the short time
since the canvass was begun, how near
ly 8116,666 private subscriptions have
been secured, and the addition of some
1116,666 promised by the city and some
of our public utilities, without asking
any of the steam railways and some of
the public utilities to assist, I consider
It the most successful work ever ac
complished In Atlanta, In ao short a
time. It speaks volumes for ths devo
tion, energy end efficiency of your com
mittee and the progressive spirit of
Atlanta. I do not believe as much
could htlve been done in any other
Southern city. Tour success Is a
prophecy of what you can accomplish
next autumn, when ths busy season Is
on and Atlanta takes up tha line of
march again, with her usual vigor and
determination.

1110. If It were next year, 1 would op

can do, and their houses are full. The

In reply It can be said that scarcely a

time the labor supply will Increase - -
and .even at the wont, It will not be a
serious mistake to furnish plenty of
work and good wages to the mechanics

fear of mismanagement, debt and dis

Friday morning at 8 o'clock, when

engagement, at th* Casino, there was
long line of purchasers all clamor

Everybody Is wsll aware that this will
be th* second and last week of the
Wells-Dunne-Hsrlsn Company's en
gagement In Atlanta, so far as this
season Is concerned, and few theater
goers will 1st the week pass without
seeing one of the performances. The
bill for next week will be "The Night
of the Fourth," a Jolly, effervescent
and rollicking muslrsl comedy. In
which the principals will have excel
lent parts. Th* music Is of ths tune
ful sort that lingers In ths memory
and frequently demands a whistling
during the working hours next day.
The muslrsl maidens ere down on ths

—an announcement that will be read
with pleasure by local theater-goer*.
For the present week there will be
three more performances of "Olortans,"
