Boaom friend* for 25 years, play mates, confidant*, sharia* their Joys and sorrows, and helping sach other In sscurlng political preferment at the hands of their people, W. J. Handers, representative from Johnson county, a dentist and former Methodist minister, and Judge A. F. Daley, formerly of the state superior court, and now pres ident of the Wrlghtsvllle and Tennllle railroad, are today bitter enemies. The sensational Incident In the house Monday, when Mr. Flanders asked Oar- nett Qutlllan to leave the chamber, was one of tha many startling happen ings that have grown out of the feud between Judge Daley and the gentle man from Johnson, who first disagreed ten years ago, when, ifr. Flanders claims, he won a suit In court, with Judge Daley as the opposing council. . According to Mr. Flanders, a Jove af fair between Miss Pauline Daley, Judge Daley's daughter, and an Atlanta man, Kd L. Humphries, years ago, was really the first cause of the trouble, which hnd been only suggested by the trial mentioned. Mr. Flanders gave to The Georgian a complete history of the trouble be tween himself and the Daley faction, i" cording to which Judge Daley's •laughter was receiving attention from .Mr. Humphries, when It became noised through Wrlghtsvllle, a small city, that LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR BILL PASSES THE SENATE AUTOMATIC GUN :NEW RAILWAY CO, Sen.

A few days later Miss Daley met the postmaster on the street, and so he -aid Tuesday morning, gave him a tongue-lashing. Her mother became •lltsant, and Mr glanders relates that as the letters did not slop going to the Atlsnta lover, Judge Daley, on learning Senator Crawford Wheatley's bill to provide Georgia with a lieutenant-gov ernor passed the senate Tuesday morn ing by a rote of 32 to i. after a fruit less tight, led by Senator B. 8.

After passage In the house, the ques tion will be submitted to the people for ratification at the October election. Senator Wheatley's bill creates the office of lieutenant-governor, who will be president of the senate during the sessions. The eaiary Is fixed at 3400 per annum.

Senator Wheatley was given close attention during Ills speech. Miller Opposes It. Senator B. S. Miller opposed the bill. He said his objection was based on the Idea that no man ought to preside over the senate who Is not elected by that body. He said that if Ihe bill passed, the lieutenant-governor would begin build ing up a machine to place himself In the gubernatorial chair. ‘‘Oovsrnors don't die In Georgia," he thundered. "Has Senator Milter forgotten the days of Alexander Stephens ?" "My memory does not run as far back as the distinguished senator's." When Senator Miller declared that he objected to a man not elected by the senate presiding over that pody, and stand In line for the gubernatorial succession, Senator Wheatley arose and with some heat demanded: Tried to Trap Millar. "la not the gentleman now actively supporting for governor the man who presided over the senate for four years7" But all presidents of the senate are not candidates for governor," was the retort. "1 Insist on the senator answering my question," said Senator Wheatley. iiunuuji, As that is _ _ tlon, I don't think It Is germane to this discussions,” stated Senator Bunn. Senators Bunn, Candler, Bond and A. O. Blalock all spoke In favor of the bill. Senator Miller again arose to press his point, and stated that the constitu tion provided for the secretary of state to serve In the event of the death of the governor. Miller fer the Jobf •’Will Ihe senator read that section?" requested Senator Reid. "t can't And II,” said Senator Miller, amid laughter. In a colloquy between Senator Mil ler and Senator Candler, the latter showed that the secretary of state could not serve. • "But It doesn't any Ihe secretary of stale shall not serve," Insisted Senator Miller. '•Nor does It say n Justice of the peace shall not," replied Senator Can- dler. * In prefacing his advocacy of the bill Senator Hand said: "When I etudled the provisions of this bill and found It good, 1 began the place, and the gallant ffgura of the fourth (Senator Miller) came to mine On the vote for passage It passed— 32 to ft.
