DECISION ANENT
REAPPORTIONMENT
MEM'BERS OF LEGISLATURE WILL
NOT BE APPORTIONED
UNTIL NEXT YEAR
SHORT ITEMS OF INTEREST
Brief News Items Gathered Here and
There From All Sections
Of The State
Atlanta.—It is now considered prob
| that there will be no reapportion
I ment of members of the general as¬
sembly of Georgia until 1921, after the
official report of the 1920 census has
been promulgated.
An opinion rendered by Assistant At¬
torney General Graham Wright, cou¬
pled with a letter written to Gover¬
nor Dorsey' by Sam L. Rogers, direc¬
tor of the census, combine to influ¬
ence the general assembly to delay
the reapportionment until next year.
The opinion was rendered by the as¬
sistant attorney general at the request
of .Representative W. A. Covington of
rwI Colquitt, Tmo who nr rr** had intended “T 1UCU to intro- muu
duce a reapportionment resolution , un
der which Colquitt county would be
given two representatives, instead fot
one as at present! Mr. Wright holds
to the view that there is no prece
dent for making a reapportionment in
a census year, but rather during the
year immediately following the an
nouncement of the census returns for
the entire country. He also states that
the report thus far received from the
director of the census indicates that
it is incomplete and possibly subject
to correction.
The opinion of the assistant attor¬
ney general follows:
Hon. W. A. Covington, House of Rep¬
resentatives, State Capitol—Dear Sir:
In compliance with your request for
an opinion as to the reapportionment
of the representatives of the general
assembly by the present session of
the legislature, I have carefully gone
into the question involved in this mat¬
ter and have reached the following
conclusion:
Article 3, section 3, paragraph 2, of
the constitution of the state of Geor¬
gia provides that the apportionment
of, the representation in the house
shall be changed by the general as¬
sembly at its first session after each
census taken by the United States gov¬
ernment.
The census act of congress of 1910
make« no provision ae to when the
census shall be completed and take ef
feet, other than that it should be
pleted within three years from the
first day of July, 1919. The general
rule appears to be that in the absence
of a time specified when a census
shall take effect the same takes
from the date of the official publication
of the result of such census by the
officer or bureau charged with the duty
of taking same. (See volume 17, Cor
pus Juris, page 71.)
i am, therefore, of the opinion that:
the present legislature of the state
of Georgia is not authorized to reap- !
portion the representatives in the house
upon any preliminary report of the j
director of the census, but that the
first session of the legislature of the
state of Georgia after the completed i
and official report of this bureau is '
the “first session" of the general as- i
sembly within the meaning of the con
stitutional provision above quoted.
This opinion borne out by the,
fact that the reapportionment 1
made after the previous census in tne
years 1901 and 1911, and not
and 1910.
I trust that this answers your in -1
quiry fully and I am returning which! here- j
with the letter of Mr. Rogers,
,u left me. I am also furnishing
governor with a copy of this opinion •
at your request. Very respectfully
yours, j

the Holy Spirit.
The call of Scripture to the one thus
Indwelt is to “walk in the Spirit”
and to be “led of the Spirit.”
The leading offi the Spirit presup¬
poses several things. Of course it as¬
sumes regeneration, for without birth
there can be no life and without life
there can tie no leading. It presupposes
disposition. “They that are after the
flesh do mind the things of the flesh,
and they that are after Hie Spirit the
things of the Spirit.” They that are
after the Spirit are they that are dis¬
posed to follow the Spirit. Such dis¬
position is an essential to the Spirit’s
leading. Desire is another presupposi¬
tion. Frequent and unnecessary fail¬
ures and falls leave a sense of humili¬
ation and shame, followed by a great
longing or desffie to be led by One
who can avert these frequent falls.
Again, tiie leading of .he Spirit pre¬
supposes dedication. Dedication is the
deeding over of one’s life to God. It is
the Intelligent recognition of and re¬
sponse to I Corinthians 0:20—“Ye are
not your own, for ye are bought with a
price.” It is the acknowledgment of
the Divine ownership, and of the Di¬
vine right of possession. Furthermore,
the leading of the Holy Spirit presup¬
poses direction. Our objective must be
in harmony with t He will of God.
The leading of the Holy Spirit; is re¬
lated to at least, three matters of vital
concern—Christian truth. Christian
service and Christian conduct. First,
Christian truth: In John 10:13 we read
that “when he, the Spirit of truth is
come, he will guide you into all truth.”
Literally It Is, he will lead you along
the road of truth. Thgre are many by¬
paths of error open to us all the time.
Like Christian In “Pilgrim’s Progress,"
we may be drawn Into some of these
by-paths. They have nice sounding
names and look attractive. The Spirit
of God In bis leading preserves us from
being deluded Into these paths of error
and falsity.
He also leads believers in the matter
of service, making choice both of those
who are to serve and the fields In which
they are to serve. For example, tifiip/ tin;
Spirit of God separated Paul and
nabas for a special service and then
determined the field In which that ser¬
vice should be rendered!
In the matter of Christian conduct
our text tells us, to “walk In the Spirit,"
and then adds the promise, “Ye shall
not fulfill the lusts of the flesh.” That
word "fulfill” means bring to comple¬
tion. The flesh, that Is to say, the Aid
self-life, will continue to lust after or
desire the things that gratify It. For
example, the flesh Is very resentful of
any supposed slight, or of the denial
of any of Its supposed rights; It loves
to “get even” witli others:'“But When
one Is led of the Spirit, these desires
are not fulfilled or brought to comple¬
tion. "The Spirit lusteth against the
flesh so that ye do not do the things
ye otherwise would.” In Christian
conduct, therefore, we must be led of
the Spirit.
This leads to n life of progress,
moral principle and spiritual power.
The Holy Spirit leads us In a progres¬
sive way from grace to grace, from
character to character, from glory to
glory. The life becomes conscious of
progress and advancement, of willing¬
ness to undertake, and power to
achieve. One is able to sing with
Frances R. Hnvergal:
Onward and upward points the way,
With the joy of progress from day to day.
Children still of a Father’s love;
Children still of a home above;
Thus we look back without a sigh,
O'er the lengthening track.
The great moral qualities are brought
to fruition through the leading of the
Spirit. Whom he leads he Indwells,
and the fruit of the indwelling Spirit
is In all goodness, righteousness and
truth. His leading Is always in har¬
mony with these principles, not only in
the public life, but In all departments
of onr being and activity. In the home,
In social life, and In business affairs,
goodness, righteousness and truth are
conspicuous In the life led by the Holy
Spirit. Spiritual power Is the experi¬
ence of all those whose lives are ad¬
justed to his leading. In them he
dwells ungrieved and unquenehed and
the power of God operates in and
through all such.
Give, but Ask Not
One thing I learned from Tolstoy
and learned repeatedly; it is, perhaps,
of more value than all the other’things
he taught me. It was the initial lesson
and the hardest. “Give everything
and ask nothing in relum.” I have
ceased to demand brotherhood or even
to expect it. I am giving it, and that

Relief for Torpid Livers
and Habitual Constipation
The liver is the largest and most Im¬
portant organ In the body, and when the
liver refuses to act, It causes constipa¬
tion, biliousness, headaches, indigestion,
gas, sour stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains In back and under shoul¬
der blades and under ribs on right side.
These symptoms lend to colds, influenza
or other serious troubles unless corrected
Immediately.
An Inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which overtaxes
them and causes the blood to absorb nnd
carry Into the system the Impurities that
the liver and kidneys have failed to elim¬
inate.
When yoti treat the liver alone, you
treat only a third of your trouble, and
that Is why you have to take purgatives
every few nights. Calomel or other or¬
dinary laxatives do not go far enough.
If you would treat your kidneys and blood
while treating the liver, you would put
S’our entire system in order and frequent
purgatives would then be unnecessary.

recognized these Important facts, and after much study and research, conjr
pounded what Is now known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver, Kidney and Blood Pow
Jers, three medicines combined in one. This was the Doctor's favorite pre¬
