Savanah, Ga., Dec., 20.—The one-office-for-one-man bill which has just been approved by the gov ernor has caused a good deal of talk here. It was introduced by Chatham s representativesand was aimed at Captain John R. Dillon, the county tax reciever and clerk of the county commissioners. Captain Dillon belongs to a fac tion which opposed the present rep - resentatives. Now that the bill has become a law, several candidates for the office of clerk of the county commissioners have sprung up, as Captain Dillon will, of course, give up that office rather than that of tax receiver, which is a better one.
