CITY BREVITlES.

This is the season of repairs with
the fire department. Much of the
apparatus is being overhauled and
given a new coat of paint.
A negro and a white man handcuffed
together and followed by colored con-
stable attracted attention on the
street yesterday, and caused some little
talk.
Several property owners and agents
were before Recorder Myrick in Police
Court yesterday for not having had
weeds cut on their property. Four of
the defendants were fined a dollar each
and the others were dismissed with an
admonition.
Application was filed in the Superior

state against Napoleon Brown, charg-

requested it's withdrawal and the re-
quest came with such unanimity that
Rev. Mr.. Minor consented to do so.
The meeting of the Presbyterian Sy-
nod early in November will probably
revive the question of a, Presbyterian
college in Georgia. The meeting of
the Savannah Presbytery last week
adopted resolutions looking to the es-
tablishment of a college and a commit
tee was appointed to push the matter
before the Synod. Valdosta was a
bidder for the school established by
the presbytery some time ago, pro-
vided it was to be on the college basis.
Other towns showed a desire to bid for
a college and these things have Gre
ated the impression that the Synod has
an excellent opportunity to establish
and institution for higher education in
Georgia, and have much of the burden
borne by some of the enterprising
towns which bid for the institution.

SEASONABLE HINTS.
Guard Your Health in Fall and
Early Winter.

A change from warm to cold is al
ways attended with more danger than
from a cold to a warm temperature,
hence the greater mortility from lung
and throat diseases at this season of
the year as compared with spring.
The best protection against colds is
not so much in extra clothing as in
good digestion.
If the digestion and circulation are
good, colds will be unknown.
Poor digestion causes poor circula-
tion of the blood and when in this con-
dition severe colds are contracted on
the slightest provocation.
People who make a regular practice
of taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after meals are free from colds, sim
ply because their digestion is perfect.

AGAINST EXTENSION.

by the city. The result would be that
there would be a great deal or lana
thrown upon the market with the Ell
feet of hurting values and rendering
the market very weak. Mr.. Platshek
said he heartily favored extension as
he believed that a large area ana
large population for city did a great
deal for its advertisement and ad-
vancement. His talk was intended to
indicate some of the difficulties by
which Council was confronted.
Mr. Owens, representing the South
ern Cotton Oil Company and the
Branch lands south of the city, spoke
against the extension. He does noe
recognize a need for it at this time and
believes that the taxation of the prop
crty that would be taken in. much Of
which does not even now pay state and
county taxes. would be unjust.
Mr. Brown said that he owned farm
lands inside the present limits. but
hat the city has done little or nothing
for their improvement. He expressed
the view that the city should develop
The property already included within
its limits before attempting to expand.
1t was somewhat refreshing to the
aldermen, in the face of the general
opposition that was manifested toward
the plan of extension, to know that the
Mayor had received a telegram dur
ing the day from President Louis P.
Hart of the Gorrie Ice Company of New
Orleans, saying: I'm behalf of the Cor
RE Ice Manufacturing Company, /
viii state that we have no objection to
the extension of city limits in any
manner that would be for the best in
terest of the city"
1t was difficult to judge of the effect
upon Council of the objections that
were offered. Members of the board
were asked what Council was likely to
Go. but they did not care to hazard
prophecy. The Mayor said that there
will probably be another special meet
ing held for further consideration of
the plan
Question has been raised in some
minds as to whether the city has
right to fix a term of tax exemption
for property that may be taken in. The
Mayor thinks it has such a right, but
says the opinion of the city attorney
will be secured before anything is done.
An alderman says the city has such a
right, but that it would not hold If any
taxpayer should Bring suit to enforce
the collection of taxes from owners OF
the new property. There is little likeli-
hood. however, he says that there
would ever be such a suit brought.

Charleston, S. c., Oct. 22.-The an
nouncement that the Hon. w. Chris
tie Benet would not seek to succeed
himself as Judge of the First Circuit
has brought to light host of candi-
dates for that place. Among those who
are out working among the members of

their friends throughout South Caro-

There is no doubt of the authorita-
tive nature of the announcement that
Judge Benet will not seek reelection.
Exactly what motives have inspired
his withdrawal have not yet been CIV
en- to the public. 1t is a matter of COM
mon report, however, that Judge Benet
would very greatly appreciate a move
ment which would elevate him to the
Supreme Bench of the state, and in
default of that preferment, his inclina
tions would turn towards the head of
one or another OF the large educational
institutions of South Carolina. He
is a man of wide learning, and is well
qualified to fill any position of honor
he might be prevailed upon to accept
His friends here, of course, do not
talk a great deal at the present time
about his seeking any other public
position. When questioned upon the
subject they simply say that he will
upon retiring from his present position,
open a law office in this city for the
practice of his profession.

I" he recent decision of the Su-
preme Court Of Illinois in the
corporation tax cases adds $S,0OO,OOO
a year to the revenues Of that State.
1t is stated that the rich corpora
tons Of Illinois have evaded the pay
ment Of their taxes for the past twenty
Eve years. They have acquired public
franchises of inestimable value for
nothing and have refused to make
even such a return for the benefits OF
government as private owners have to
make upon property honestly bought
and paid for. The effect Of this cor
porate tar lodging has been to re-
duce Chicago almost to bankruptcy, to
put q stop to needed public improve
ments and to starve the schools.
In desperation, the school teachers
finally took the matter up and under
took to force the unfaithful officers to
make fair assessments Of corporation
property. including franchises filched
from the people.
Two members Of the Chicago Teach
ers' Federation, Miss Margaret Haley
and Miss Catherine Goggin, called
on the State Board Of Equalization to
do its duty, and when it refused they
brought suit to compel it. The fight
has been a long and desperate one
but when the issue hung in doubt the
Chicago American was established
and went to the aid of the teachers.
The result was that the corporations
were beaten in the trial, and now the
Supreme Court has just decided
against them on appeal.
Twenty-three corporations specific.
ally named in the decision, and many
others, are affected. The immediate
result of the decision will be to add
1926. DOC, 900 to the assessment rolls
and give Cook county, in which Chi.
cagoi is situated, about 81, OOO, 900 of ad-
ditionsl revenue, of which 81, zoo, 0O(
will be available for new schools. Il
is further stated that the decision il
so far-reaching that the corporations
can be compelled to pay the bach
taxes that they have been dodgint
during the last twenty-five years.
