CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
WIN SIGNAL, VICTORY

The supreme court OF Georgia has Just
handed down a decision in a case which
had been watched with intense interest by
the advocates OF Christian Science in this
state. and which they regard as a victory
for the adherents Of their sect.
The decision OF the supreme court holds
that parents are not compelled 10 give
medicine TO their minor children when
they become IN. and that failure or refu-
sal 20 give medicine 10 these children is
not violation OF the laws OF the state.
The case was one I'm which the Christian
Scientists were greatly interested, and
they are delighted with the decision OF
the court The case came Up from the city
court OF Dublin, and was that of Justice
W the STATE ~
c c. Justice. q Christian Scientist. re-
fused 20 give medicine TO one OF his chill
drsn when Il became III and refused TO
allow q physician 70 attend to the child.
After an fllners OF some time the child

censed AZ the refusal OF the man 10 allow
his child 20 be treated BY physician. and
they swore out a warrant for him. cnarg-
ing him with failure 10 provide the neces-
sary sustenance to the child. a crime un-
der the laws Of the state. This was the
only charge upon which they could prose-
cute.
The case was tried before Judge Ad-
ans. OF the city court OF Dublin. and Jus
tfce was fired $50 He appealed the case
from one court TO another. and IL finally
reached the supreme court, which re-
versed the decision Of the lower courts in
the following self-explanatory decision:

WALL STREET MUST NOW
PADDLE HER OWN CANOE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Secretary
Shaw declines to say anything for publi-
cation as to the attitude of the treasury
department. in regard TO the present mon
ey stringency in New York. There is
reason 70 believe. however, that no ac-
ton whatever Is contemplated now or at
any future time and certainly not as long
as the interests involved are not extended
10 the substantial business operations OF
the country outside Of its present limited
area II is understood the department
takes the position that the government is
not involved in the present situation and
that Wall street must rely on its own re-
sources to tide over the present scrin-
gency.
At this time the treasury has no avail
able cash on hand above a moderate
working balance approximating $5S.000,O 900,
and 1t is not AS present purpose to furth-
err reduce this sum by making additional
deposits in national bank repositories or
otherwise.

DEFICIT NEXT
YEAR WILL
Be SMALL
GOVERNOR TERRELL THINKS
He WILL HAVE TO BORROW
ONLY $4,000 AND THAT
FOR LEGISLATURE.

Governor Terrell Is OF the opinion that
he viii only have TO borrow $1,000 for
the state next year In order 10 meet the
current expenses OF the government ana
the appropriations. despite the increase
IN the APPROPRIATIONS and the reduction OF
the tar rate 70 mills. He further thinks
that the tax rate can be lowered from
mills 70 about AIS mills
This IS on account OF the fact that the
tax act viii add considerable revenue 70
the state. more than did the act of this
wear. and that an increase in the tax re-
turns Is expected And the money that
win have 20 be borrowed win be to meet
the expenses OF the legislature which
convenes IN June
governor Terrell went over the general
tax act and the general appropriation bill
very carefully Saturday afternoon with
Representative Reid. OF Campbell. chair
man OF the ways and means committee,
that framed the tax act The governor
arrived at the conclusion that there would
be but a small deficit and that this would
be caused By having TO pay the legisla-
ture IN the summer instead OF next taI.
Heretofore the sessions OF the house and
senate have been held in the fall. and
the tax money which is due then was gen
orally in before the adjournment Next
year. however, there viii be but little
money in the treasury when the house
meets and TO keep the state institutions
from suffering for their appropriations,
the governor viii probably make loan OF
So. 900 TO defray the expenses Of the gen
eral assembly.
According TO the calculations made by
Governor Terrell Saturday afternoon the
appropriations made by the legislature
at this session are only about $4,000 more
than those made In 1900. This is due to
the increase Of Sc. 900 given the state sani-
tarfum. the extra amounts 20 pensioners
and the increase TO the school fund
II Il now very likely that Governor Ter
reIl viii sign every section OF the general
appropriation bill At first IL was thought
that II would be necessary for him to cut
some OF the appropriations.

NO MOCK SESSION BY
THE SENATE FRIDAY NIGHT

There was mock session OF the senate or
the house Friday night, has been the Gus
tom in Georgia for many years past Both
the house and senate were too much interested
In the public property fund question, and the
proceedings were conducted with great dig
nifty.
Heretofore Il has been the custom to intro
duce resolutions thanking certain attorneys
and others for their constant attendance upon
the sessions and asking that the treasurer be
directed TO pay them for their services at
the same rate the members were paid.
Then the scrap which took place in the
house just before the adjournment. between
Clayton Robson OF Miuedgevile, and James
p knight, Of Berrien, created great deal OF
excitement in that body and there was no
time for the mock session.
