TREASURER srEERs' REpoRr.
Recommendations Pertaining to
Banking and other Matters.

Banking and other Matters.
Atlanta, Ca, Oct 14-State Treasurer
Speer touches upon more interesting and
important matters in his annual report
completed to-day. He points out partic-
ulars in which the bank laws of this state
are very defective, and recommends
changes which viii prevent officers from
borrowing the funds of banks largely and
without good security. He recommends
that the stock OF a bank be not accepted
as security for loans from the same insti-
tuition, and that stocks be not counted
in the legal reserve.
The treasurer also makes important
recommendations concerning the care of
assets of building and loan association
These concerns are using their deposits
with the treasurer as q leverage to get
business, and are piling up work on the
treasures without compensation. In that
connection the fees taken by the late
Treasurer Hardeman are mentioned, and
Mr.. Speer says that equity should give
them to the treasurer as compensation for
this extra work.
The Blalock committee viii report on
this matter 70 the legislature, recommend
ing that Col Hardeman's estate be re-
quired to reimburse the state to the ex-
tent of about 81, 400, the amount of fees
which he collected from these concerns
and kept under his Interpretation of the
law.
Treasurer Speer has paid these fees in
to the treasury, but he asks the legislature
to specifically authorize the treasurer to
retain them or make other provision for
the payment of help necessary to look af-
ter the building and loan associations.
Treasurer Speer's report shows that he
has handled 100000 the past year, the
balance in the treasury oct l being S422, -

PECULIAR CUSTOM IN NORWAY.

where No Hotels Exist Government
COmpeIs Villagers to Accommodate
From the London Sketch.
Some friends who have just returned
from tour in out-of-the-way parts of
Norway tell me of a capital hotel system
in vogue there which might be
adopted with vantage In some
parts of Scotland and Ireland.
In every village where no hotel
exists some one of the more prominent in
habitants is subsidized by the Norwegian
government, and in return Is bound to
provide accommodation for not less than
four travellers; he may take in more If he
chooses, but four is the minimum Ny
friends made frequent use of
these subsidized hostelries and are
enthusiastic concerning the excel
lence of the accommodation and
food supplied. 1 did not gather wheth
er the tariff was regulated by government.
but l presume 1T is; anyway the charges
are absurdly moderate Norway owes
much of her prosperity to tourists, and
she certainly treats them we'll.

Atlanta. Ga. oct l4-The term of
Judge Allen Fort as railroad commission

from office until his successor is named
and qualified. This VIII probably not be
until the legislature meets as Gov. Atkin-
son has said that he would not make his
appointment until that time. The legs-
lature will meet in two weeks, on the 9th.
There seems to be no certainty as to who
will get Judge Forts place. The only
certainty is that he viii not succeed him

Judge S. W. Harris of the Coweta circuit
is believed TO stand a fine chance for the
place Judge Spencer Atkinson of the SUI
preme court is also counted a probability
by the slate maker in which event Judge
Harris would be put forward for the va
cancy on the supreme bench, and Hon.
Warner Hill of Merriwether appointed by
the governor TO succeed Judge Harris on
the circuit
The idea seems TO be that the plum will
be used in the Fourth district some way
or other so as to be useful TO the gov
ernor in future political movements. He,
however, has loyal and valuable adhe-
rents in other sections ana it may be
that some of these will have their fidelity
