MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29
City Taxpayers Will Pay $1.90 Less Per Thousand and Rural Taxpayers $1.40 Less
Substantial Reductions
In Taxes Are Secured;
6 Only County Is Higher
County Rate Increased From $6.40 to $7.00
Per Thousand, While City and School
Taxes Are Reduced. Reduction in County
Assessments About Evens Score. State
, Tax Remains at $5 Per Thousand. Tax
League Officials Gratified
Taxpayers living in the City of Augusta will pay a
total tax rate this year of 42 mills, or $42.00 per thous
and. This compares with a tax rate of 43.9 mills in
1923, or $43.90 per thousand. There is a saving this
year of $1.90 per thousand.
Taxes to be paid by the city taxpayers, some of
which have already been paid, are divided as follows:
City tax, $lB per thousand.
School tax, sl2 per thousand.
County tax, $7 per thousand.
State tax, $5 per thousand.
The taxpayer living in the county pays only the last
three tax items, or a total of $24 per thousand.
Only the county tax. it is now home owner and other small tax-
revealed, is higher for 1924 than in
1923. The county commissioners, at
a special meeting Saturday, fixed
tye tax rate at 7 mills, or $7 per
thousand, an increase of six-tenths
of a mill over last year.
The city tax rate was reduced
from $18.50 per thousand to SIB.OO.
The school tax. as announced Sat
urday, was reduced rrom $14.00 to
sl2 00, while the state tax of $5. a
constitutional limit, remains the
same.
-Now that all taxes have been de
cided upon, it is revealed that the
city taxpayers will save $1.90 per
thousand, while the rural taxpayer
secures a saving of $1.40 per thou
sand.
Not only is there a saving for
both the city and county taxpayers,
but substantial reductions have
been made in the assesment basis
of county taxes, on which the
county, state and school taxes are
paid. The total digest for 1924 is
$39,194,425, as compared with %}l.-
127,330 in 1923, a reduction, in
round figures, of two millions of
dollars in the total assesments.
■ Only the county will have more
money to spend in 1924 than in
1923. By raising the tax rate six
tenths of a mill the county, in spite
of a two-million-doilar cut in as
sessments, will raise $274,350 this
year, as compared with $203,215 in
1923. Thus, it will be seen, that
actual economy has only been ef
fected by the Board of Education
and by City Council.
SAVING EFFECTED
WELL WORTH WHILE
■v Although there has been a tax
reduction. \t large, or but approxi
mately two mills, officials of the
Richmond County Tax deduction
League expressed themselves Mon
day as being highly pleased that
some economy has been effected in
the city and county. The trend of
taxes has for many years been up
ward here, and even a small sav
ing reveals that the tax-making
bodies have begun to app/eciate
the need of economy and are de
termined to do their part in making
lighter the taxpayer's burden,
v With a reduction of $1.90 per
thousand in the rate, and a sub
stantial lowering of the assessment
figures of the county, the saving
thus effected will prove material
benefit, especially to the small

SHAMROCKS LOSE
To Salley Team By Score of
7 to 6
SALLY, S. C. —In a had fought
game here Saturday the Salley
team defeated the Shamrocks by a
close score of 7 to 6. The failure
of the Shamrocks to gain the point
after the touchdown proved their
defeat. Due to the slow field the
Shamrocks hacks could not grip tht>
soil and found the going pretty
hard. The most of the game -was
fought in the center of the field, the
Shamrocks would continually buck
the heavy Salley line only to gain
a few feet, Salley likewise found
it impossible to gain much yardage
against the Shamrock squad. Cap
tain Eddie Mulherin at quarter was
the individual star of the game,
his brilliant headwork in piloting
the Shamrock and running up the
punts was c,ee of the features of
the game. Morris at center. Her
man at guard and Marher or half
played an excellent game. Wil
liams at full for Salley was the
star of the Salley team. The game
was a clean fought battle throught.
the sportsman-like playing of both
teams is commendable.

OFFICERS DESCRIBE
MAN HELD HERE AS
A “MODERN FAGIN”
J T. Glaze, white, who gives his
addres as 1415 Broad Street, and
alleged by city detectives to be a
“modern Fa gin”, the character In
Dickens' “Oliver Twist” who
trnined young boys in thievery for
his own profltfi is being held at
police headquarters on a charge of
attempted burglary. It is reporter,
by Detectives Bob Turner and Duke
Brown that Glaze and two small
boys were found Saturday night in
Burum’s Alley, at the side of Kelly s
pool room, attempting to effect en
trance In a building. The boys
were caught in the act of trying
to break a lock and were seen. ae-.
cording to the detectives, to confer
wtlh Glaze after their first attempt
proved futile.
The boys and Glaze were ar
rested and the boys questioned
The detectives and a Juvenile court
official say the boys told that Glaze
had offered to pay them fifty cents
each to break the lock r„ that he
could get Into the place and steal
some tools. Further questioning !*
said by the officers to have reveal
ed that Glaze had two boys of his
own and that he was training them
to thieve Glaze, offered as an
alibi for hla boys that h* had sent
them home from a theatre, but the

method he was supposed to use
with his sons.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
Mayor and Council Only Planned to Haul
City’s Freight By Boat, Smith Tells Court
Would Haul Other Freight If They Found It Could Be
Done Legally—Mayor on Witness Stand As Boat In
junction Hearing Begins Before Judge Franklin
Testifying in superior court Mon
day in the case of George R.
Stearns, Landon Thomas and Bow
dro Fhinizy, versus the mayor and
city council of Augusta, et al„
wherein the defendants are sought
by injunction to be restrained from
purchasing a boat to be operated
on the Savannah River, Mayor Ju
lian M. Smith, told the court that
neither he, as mayor, nor city coun
cil, have ever at anytime had in
mind hauling freight by the pro
posed boat other than that belong
ing to the City of Augusta, hut. if
they found that they could legally
haul other freight on the boat that
such would be done.
Bryan Cumming, of counsel for
the plaintiffs, asked Mayor Smith
what would be the idea of the city
buying a boat for its own purposes,
to which the latter replied that it
would be a saving In freight. May
or Smith said that the city has
handled about 1,000,000 tons of
freight of its own recently because
of paving and other work, and had
they had a boat to handle it with
there would have been a consider
able saving to the city.
When asked if the 'city owned its
own boat for the express purpose
of hauling its freight, would it make
hauling charges against itself. May
or Smith replied that he supposed
that it would. His attention was
called to the fact that such would
be merely swapping dollars, so to
speak.
MAYOR HAD NO
FIGURES AVAILABLE
1
Mayor Smith was aked by Judge
A. L. Franklin, presiding, whether
the shippers in Augusta continue
to haul freight the boat line
if rail rates were cut because of the
boat operation. The mayor said
that water rates are always just a
bit lower than rail rates and that
there is some kinds of freight that
cannot be shipped by boat.
"Wouldn’t the rail competition, tend
to put the boat line out of busi
ness?” asked Judge Franklin, to
which the mayor gave practically
the same answer.
Mayor Smith was unable to give
any figures to Mr. Cumming on
the amount of freight that would
be hauled by boat belonging to the
city. Replying to a question as to
bids on city work, the mayor said
that lower rates because of water
transportation would enable the
contractors to make lower bids and
this benefit would he passed on to
the city. The mayor admitted that
the return trip of a boat that would
be only for the carrying of muni
cipal freight would have scarcely
no freight.
By the river being used, the may
or said that in his opinion, that
the city could save from 20 to 25
per cent, on its freight hauling
charges and unless a boat line is
reestablished this will be lost. As
the mayor views the rate problem it
would not be necessary for the city
to ship all of its material by boat
in order to get water rates by rail.
Although the Alt&maha Is report
ed to be out.of commission and its
owners are reported to be unwilling
to repair it for the Augusta to
Savannah haul, or to put on an
other boat, it was not explained by
the mayor how a boat shat would
probably be confined only to the
carrying of municipal freight would
have anything whatever to do with
bringing about a lowering in the
freight rail rates on a parity with
those on a water basis, though May
or Smith called attention, while he
was on the witness stand, to the
fart that Augusta is to be put on a
land rate as regarding her freight
charges. And it is for this purpose
that commercial hauls bv boats on
the Savannah are needed. He re
peated a number of times that the
boat that city council proposed to
buy would be for the sole benefit
to the City of Augusta through
hauling freight for the City of Au
gusta. and incidentally, for others
if such would be found to be legal.
NOT ADVISED TO BUY
BIGGER BOAT THAN NEEDED
Mr. Gumming asked the mayor If
he had ever been advised to buy
a boat larger than the needs of
the city wuuld Justify, to which the
mayor answered in tho negative.
Then, it was called to the mayor s
attention, to which he agreed, to
keep the boat down to a size such
as would fulfill the needs of the
city government, the only com
petition that the railroads would
have would be from this probably
small craft exclusively hauling
freight for the municipal govern
ment.
Setting out in its answer the
amount of money and the source of
getting it to buy the proposed boat
which purpose was recommended
by the finance committee of city
council, the sum of 174,000.00 or
thereabouts, represented in tax,
paving, sewer and sidewalk execu
tions, was named by the city. This
sum, it was alleged, will be free
from all debt or obligations when
collected. It was pointed out by
Mr. Gumming that the collection
of this amount is very uncertain,
and according to the statement of
the city, that is, a part of Its an-
Rwer in court, ther« in no available
“cash” money with which to buy
a boat or boats or a barge or
barges. According to the estimated
income and the city’* budget there
may be 31,000 over the expendi
tures of this year, and that the tax
levy for this year has been made
and the city has no other source of
getting this money.
Mavor Bmith testified that som -
estimates of the cost of a boat and
blue prints had been received,
when asked if the city had done
anything toward making a contr \ < ; r
for the purchase of a boat
boats a barge or barges. H* i
that no bids have been received by
either the finance committee, or
city council or himself. ..
Discussing the General Welfar-
Clause of the city ch»rUr. com
monlv known as the police Pf** 1 ?’
Mr. Gumming called court s a '
tentlon to the fact that municipal
oorporatlons have . to
nnwers as are expressly granted tj
then, by the legislature
legislative powers s*
naturally follow from the •P*- ln '
grants In It* charter.
“WHERE THERE IS
NO VISION,” ETC.
Although he callod attention to
tho question of a part of * 1
the 18th verse 29th Proverb::.
"Where there Is no vision, the peo
ple perish." Mr. Cumming *urs«s»*d
that when the Bible Is rend thnt
at least all of the verse he read.
The "correct” quotation being, he
said: "Where there Is no vision,
the people perish; but he th*t keep-
eth the law, happy is he.”
Before Mr. Cumming could complete
the quotation, Judge Franklin join
ing in, finished it with him. But
as said by Mr. Cumming, “this if
it pleases your honor, is a court of
law, and we are not down here to
deal In visions, however beautiful
they might be. ’
That a municipal corporation can
not exercise any authority outside
of Its limits, was called attention
to among other things In citing de
cisions and law hearing on the
plaintiff’s side of the ease. But In
this instance, and under the gen
eral welfare c’ause, the city, Mr.
Cumming pointed out, Is trying to
create river competition with rail
roads to reduce freight rates, by
"staking” some one to run a boat
bought by the city. That section of
the law forbidding corporations to
make denoations for outside pur
poses or to lend money, was here
dwelt on by counsel.
According to the proposed or
dinance as recommended by the
finance committee of city council,
a copy of which was denied to the
plaintiff’s hut finally filed in the
answer of the city, directs that the
boat shall he placed In the hands of
a cimmittee of seven men, who shall
be citizens of Augusta, to be leased
to ■ onje one for operation. The com

With Judge Kent
By RICHARD W RILEY
Richmond Jones, colored, was tax
ed $25 or 50 days by Judge Kont Mon
day morning on a charge of reckless
drjvlng. It was charged by witnesses
that Jones was driving out Savannah
road, zig-zagging back and forth
across the rood, and met n cor in
which two young while men were rid
ing. one of whom said he couldn't tell
what Jones was going to do. The
ear with the white men In it Is said
to have eut sharply to the right just
before Jones struck them, at which
time they were almost up against a
fence. Both cars were badly dam
aged and a negro woman walking
along the side of the road was In
jured and had to he taken .to the
hospital Jones told the judge he
was a hurd working man and that he
became excited just before the col

Commenting on the good th?t
might come to the city from a boat
line, and the ambitions to this end,
Mr. Cumming said that all of It
was commendable but »the legal
phases of the Issue were to be con
sidered. Judge Franklin t. marked,
that he would love to and always
did do what he could for the city
and Its advancement, and at one
time he put some money In a boat
line. “I gave it to Mr. Blackshear,”
he said’smiling at the city attor
ney, “but I don’t know what become
of it.” Continuing, he said. “I am
not here to make law. but to uphold
It as It has been handed down to
me by the legislature. I am thank
ful that I am not going to be the
final judge in this case, it is to be
carried up regardless of which way
my decision goes.”
Mr- Cumming had not concluded
his argument up to the time court
adjourned during the afternoon.
There were about fifty spectators
in (he courtroom when the pro
ceeding started, but as they ad
vanced the crowd a.owly drifted
away.

FACTS ABOUT MEATS
Don’t get the idea that all Western Meats are one grade, and
that all Home Killed Meats are one. There are as many as five
or six different grades of meat that come to Augusta in one car
of western meats, the best grade of this meat costing about
three times as much as the worst grade, and is worth that much
more to you, if you like good meat. The same thing applies to
home killed meats. Properly selected home killed meats are
good. We pay the price to get them, therefore we are able to
give you good meats. Our western meats are selected for us in
Kansas City and are the very b est that money will buy. Our
home killed meats are carefull y selected here and are the best,
so you can’t go wrong in buying either from us. We are satis
fying numbers of old and new c ustmers with our High Grade
Meats, so if you haven’t tried t hem, don’t wait longer. We
will save you money and guarantee to please you.

New York. I love its noise, its
