County COMMISSIONS Harding has at
last taken AN interest i'm cutting down the
courthouse yard. Yesterday he had a con-
ference with a stonemason. who will make
accurate measurements OF the stone fence
and make a bid for the stone. As an Off
hand proposition. this man said yesterday
that he would give $3.50 for the fence and
remove IL. hut il is thought that much
more than this amount can be secured.
When the measurements are made. stone
men will be asked 10 make bids for the

Mr.. Harding and Mr.. McGregor are both

Mrs. H.. II. Horne, Of No. 2ll Newman

herself and her five children set out from

weather was so terribly cold. she did two
washings. although her physical condition
makes work very hard for her. She says
the constables came and set her few pieces
of furniture out on the sidewalk. The
thermometer was in the neighborhood OF

about $4,000 a year on the present tax
duplicate.
On the subject OF the reorganization of
the School Board, as provided for in Mr..
Dunn's bill, Mr.. Smith had some objections
TO offer. The trouble at present is that
the people are not In close enough touch
not in a position TO exert influence over the
board. With the power TO appoint the
board vested in the mayor he thought that
the board would be still further removed
from the influence of the people. Either
those appointed would consider themselves
under obligations 10 the mayor and allow
him 10 control them, or else they would be
entirely independent of the mayor ana pub
lie alike. The election of a director at
city. elections would not divorce the
head OF the board from politics. The
power to appoint ~janitors and other
employees vested in the bill he regarded as
evil, as it would create patronage 10 he
dispensed. Mr.. Smith had never heard but
one man say that there was a rake off
in the log rolling of the old school boards.
If the committee were to go on the idea
that school boards are dishonest he said II
ought not TO forget that one man can he

hopes some one would devise a better plan
for holding school elections, referring TO
the disgraceful scenes with which every

Mr.. Dunn replied TO Mr.. Smith arguments.
of Trade, urged the committee TO adopt
some such plan as that outlined in Mr..
Dunn's bill in order to afford relief to the
city from the mismanagement and unsatis-
factory conditions which nave so long ex-
listed. Messrs. A. O. Baker and Allen NJ.
Fletcher also spoke in favor of Mr.. Dunn's
bill. John p. FrenZel made an earnest plea
for Mr.. Smiths bill.
There was no formal action by the COM
mittee, but the sentiment seemed to be in
favor of Mr.. Dunn's bill, perhaps in a mod
flied form.

from prominent Republican politicians,
among them w. T. Durbin, OF Anderson,
Indiana member of the national committee:

IL was the talk OF the lobby at the Dem
ison last night tina the following appoint

The newsy part of the slate thus set
forth was in the fact that Mr.. wishard

such that il was conceded upon all sides
that he could nave IL If he should ask for

that he would set his eye upon some other
post. He did not make up his mind TO be-
come an applicant until night before last
and appraised Mr.. Fairbanks of the fact
only yesterday. Senator Shlvely's friends
thought he was very near IL. since the
withdrawal OF Senator La Toilette. and j.
b. Healing, of this city. had been a very
hopeful aspirant- Experienced politicians
have regarded the other three recommended
tons mentioned as practically settled for
several months, though there have been
hosts of applicants for the places, p~articu-

RICH TERRITORY IN DOUBT.
cHATTANOoGA MAY BE 4 GEORGIA
CITY AFTER ALL.

Grave Doubts Exist as TO the Correct
boundary of Tennessee and GeOr-
ria-Both Chattanooga and look
out Mountain May BE Georgia Ter
ritory-Tennessec Has Appointed
n boundary Commission and This
state wiz Probably Take a Sisn4-
lar action.
Atlanta. Ga. Sept. at is very likely
that the legislature win be asked at its
approaching session to authorize the ap-
pointnent of a boundary commissioner to
settle the disputed line between Georgia
AID Tennessee.
The Tennessee legislature has actually
taken such action, and in the light of re-
cent disclosures. the Georgia legislature
will hardly fail TO act. No less an author
ity than Col. w A. Wimbsh. who has
spent several years i'm studying surveys
and boundaries in the interest of the state
as special attorney of the Western and
Atlantic railroad now declares that there
is grave doubt whether the city of Chat
tanooga and Lookout mountain are in
Tennessee or Georgia. It is safe TO as
sumo that Georgia viii want both these
points if they really belong to her.
Tennessee has already admitted its I'M
certainty of the state line by her lesis-
lature's act, and while that state has no
notion of giving up Chattanooga or Look
out mountain. she wants the boundary set
tied upon The facts seem TO Justify the
statement and a boundary Dispute be-
tween Georgia and Tennessee seems to be
one of the things the future has in store.
The true boundary line between the
states is the 3jth parallel of north latt-
tude and tins was located by the survey
of 1918 on "a rock about two feet high
and two feet broad on a mountain one
mile and twenty-eight poles from the
south bank of the Tennessee river. The
survey was made jointly by agents Of
Georgia and Tennessee, James CamasS,
mathematician, representing this state,
and James S Gaines, acting for Tonnes
see. The stone which they chose to mark
the Both parallel has these words engrav>
ed on it: June T. 1915 Var, 634 east"
On the south side this: Geo, 80 north J.
Carmark." 1t win be noticed that the
variation of the compass was 63-4 degrees
east and introduces an element Of IN
certainty. The act of the Tennessee legis-
1ature passed in 1889, directs the governor
to communicate with the governor of
Georgia for the purpose of having a joint
survey looking to a settlement for the
question and provides for the appoint
ment of the commissioners to act with
like number to be appointed by the gov
ernor of Georgia For some reason It
appears that the matter was not followed
up and nothing came of it. The act still
stands on the statute books, however, and
If the Georgia legislature sees fit to take
1t UP and empower Gov. Atkinson to ap,
point boundary commissioners, the state
may get important results
