AGAINST EXTRA EXPENSES.
WHY MIR. MCMILLAN STOPPED MIR.
RUSsELL's BILL.

He Has Notified the County Treas
urer That He Was Opposed to the
Measure end Would Fight It-ob-
jects to Adding More to the Al
ready Heavy Burdens Upon Tax
payer-Guided by Duty, Says Mr..
Mcmillan, and Not by Politics.
Representative T. H. Mcmillan return
ed from Atlanta yesterday morning after
having delivered what may be considered
a solar plexus blow to the bill creating
the office of clerk to the county treasurer
OF Chatham, at a salary Of $500 year
The bill is now on the table where it is
apt TO lie indefinitely. The opposition OF
Mr.. Mcmillan, and the fact that the other
two members of the delegation are not
very enthusiastic supporters of it, is pref
ty apt to prevent its passage either at this
or the next session of the legislature. The
present session ends on next Saturday.
Mr.. Mcmillan said yesterday that he
did not oppose the bill on any personal
grounds. There was no antagonism to
County Treasurer Russell prompting him.
No matter who it benefited" said he,
Il would have opposed such a measure. 1
am opposed to the creation of any new
offices and the increasing of the expenses
of Chatham county or the city of Savan-
nah, no matter who the beneficiary might
be- Our expenditures are already too
great and our taxes too high. 1 did not
believe that I would be doing my duty to
the taxpayers of the county if l did not
oppose the bill. 1 went to the legislature
determined to do my duty conscientiously,
without regard to politics and solely for
the public good as 1 considered it. l
would have been recreant to my sense of
duty If had not actively antagonized this
measure
Il told Col Russell in advance that
was opposed 10 the bill" continued Mr.
Mcmillan. Il said 20 him that the peo-
pie We're opposed to increasing the bur
den of expense upon them, and 1 asked
him 70 withdraw the bill and not force
me to defeat it in the legislature. / told
MIN that l had received letters from tax
payers protesting against it. He declined
TO withdraw il and had no other course
to pursue.
If Col. Russell will have a petition
signed by reputable taxpayers requesting
that this extra expense be shouldered
upon the county then I will cheerfully
withdraw my objections to the bill. / do
not fight it in any personal spirit, but be-
cause I am Of the opinion the taxpayers
DeheVe that a halt should be called on
the piling up Of additional expenses. We
nave offices enough. and well salared at
mat. The county treasurer receives 5000
year. and that, l believe. is sufficient
expenditure for the office. The bin would
nave raised the expense of the Office to
$500. 1 see no reason why this should

son advanced why / should support this

The firemen were called out at 8 o'clock
