THE^ifflLlKE PARKER.
Hawkinsville, (4a., Aug. 20.—
Judge T. A. Parker, of the Bruns¬
wick circuit, who held court here
Inst week for Judge J. H. Martin,
made a fine impression as a pre¬
siding officer, and in order to man¬
ifest its appreciation of his ser¬
vices, the Pulaski County Bar As¬
sociation passed the following
resolutions:
“Whereas, the judge of the
Baunswick circuit, the Honorable
T. A. Parker, has this week pre¬
sided in the Pulaski Superior
Court for his honor, Judge J.
If. Martin.
“And whereas the bitr and other
court officers of Pulaski county do
not favor passing commendatory
resolutions just as a matter of
course, when a visiting judge pre¬
sides over our court, but whenever
there comes from a neighboring
circuit a judge, Whose conspicuous
abilitv, whose ’utmost fairness,
whose fine executive ability, whose
uniform courtesy, and whose fine
common sense stamp him as a
reallv n * excellent PXC ; llent J iudge “3’ then ® thc
coming . of such . a judge w to pre-i
side over our court is a matter for |
genuine congratulation on t,,„;
part of the people of this county.
“Therefore, be it resolved,
That the bar and other court offi . j
rers of Pulaski count v do heredv \ i
record our appreciation of judg. ;
Parker and his week labor among
us; that when it becomes necessary
in the future to secure the services
of a visiting judge that
Martm be requested to invite 1
Judge Parker to return; that we j
in advance do hereby urge him to
return: that we thank Judge Park
er for his heavy weeks workt

JESUP, WAYNE COUNTY, GA., WEDNESDAY AUG, 23, t905.
STATE TAX RATE
for 1905, $4.80.
Monday the census bureau
sued a report on the quantity of
cotton ginned from the crop
If,04. showing a total growth
that year ns fixed by the ginners
to 'oo 18.093,279 bales.
Ail the tax digests are in from
the 137 counties in the state, and
a total increase in values of §87.-
804.084. This is the largest
crease in pro|>erty values ever
known in the history of the slate
in one year, and when it is
be beie.Utl.dt red that the the total total increase men as* Kt I..M
year from the same source was
more than $->5,0(10,000, the in
crease this year is regarded as
marvelous.

out about §00, 000,000 worth

"hat of an increase alter all the

(K.vcnor Terrell and Comptrol
General Wright will have a
meet'nir in. ci ng in in a a few r<\\ davs cu.\s to to clcti deter i
mine upon the state tax rate for
•' year. • The rate 7' will ‘, very like
■
5’be fixed again . at 84.80 on the ,
*1000, the same as last year.
The heavy appropriations by
the legislature prevented a
lowering of the rate, as the hi¬
cr ‘‘ asc 111 t,u ‘ va,ues "'dl make jus
about enough money to meet these
ppropriations. But even at that
the state tax rate is lower than it
has been in many years.

showed a decrease in returns this
year. These counties are Echols.
