GAMBLER HAS REDUCED TAX Rate.
Nearly a Dollar Per Thousand Less Than
When He When Into Office.

The state tax rate for the year will
probably be $5.44, which is the limit
allowed by the Legislative acts. This
is the opinion given by Governor
Gambler.
This is made necessary by the fact
that the tax returns, which are now
nearly complete, do not show
any extraordinary increase, and as a
matter OF fact the increase for the
year will probably be found to be a
little less than normal.
Nevertheless, it is a well recognized
fact that the present tax rate Is neIrly
81 less than it was at the beginning of
Governor Gamblers incumbency, when
the tax rate was 1921 as against 1914
last year and the same probable rate
for this year.
In spite of this large decrease, how
ever, more money has been given the
state university from the state in the
past four years than for fifty years pre-
viously; more help has been given the
state asylum, the state schools for the
deaf and blind, and the pension outlay
has been Increased from $3.50, 900 to
1906, 600
The board of tax commissioners will
shortly be called to consider the tax
returns and to fix the state rate for
the year. There are but very few
more counties to be heard from.

THE NEED OF SHADE TREES.

With the possible exception OF beau
tiful residences, shade trees add more
than ANYTHING else to the appearance
of a town. Dawson has them on some
of her residence streets, and these
same streets have an appearance d
hundred per cent more attractive than
those minus the trees.
Property owners in the city should
attend to this really important matter
at once and set out as many trees as
consistent with space and circum-
stances. The cost and trouble will be
exceedingly small-infnitely SO when
compared with the comfort and pleas
ure to be derived from their presence
in few short years.
Let's have the shade trees.

Another Solomon.

From the Atlanta Constitution
A Washington Judge has decided
that kissing ones sweetheart Is not
disorderly conduct.
An over-vigilant policeman who dis
covered youth is the act of admins
tering a goodnight kiss TO the Dalpi-
tating lips of his best girl insisted
upon escorting the kisser to the police
station, where a case of disOrderly
conduct was booked against him.
There was no complaint on the part of
the kissee, there had been no other
witnesses whose repose had been dis
turbed by the act itself. The police
man took it upon himself, however, to
decide that this was case calling for
the strong arm of the law.
The finish of the copper came when
he carried his case before the Judge.
Instead of the commentator he en-
pected for bis activity in protecting
the morals VI the community he got a
good hard call down-one of the get
out Of here.quick variety. He was told
that to kiss was one of the inalienable
rights of mankind; that love sways the
world, and that all other courts are in
ferior to that of cupid; that man who
hadn't sense enough to know this had
no business on the police force of any
city, least of all upon that at the capt.
tai of the nation. The prisoner at the
bar was discharged in triumph amid
the applause of az audience composed
of admiring and envious young wO-
men.
That Judge is all right. He knows
his business.

THE PROGRESS OF AMERICAN AGRICULTURE

was not a very tempting quality at
that. We will raise 100000 bushels
of macaroni wheat this year. We ex-
pect 10 develop this crop until we add
500, 600, 900 value annually to our wheat
crop. Macaroni wheat will grow in
ten inches of rainfall. 1t is particular
ly suited to the western states as far
west as the one hundredth meridian.
We have just received a consign-
ment of hard wheats from the valley of
the Tigris river. We have found an
early date palm from the same valley
which we have planted in Phenix,
Ariz., by the side Of the date palm
brought from north Africa.
We are also improving the maize
crop. There is a great demand for
hominy corn as well as for varieties
rich in oil. Over $4,000 worth of corn
oil has been sold this year. 1t prom
ises to become a great industry. We
also have several new varieties of su
gar corn for canning purposes.

THE PELHAM OISPENSARY.
Decision of the Supreme Court Causes
It to Close Doors.


There has been considerable fac
tional fighting in Pelham over the
dispensary in operation there. The
dispensary is operating in dry coun
ty and, as it appears, in violation of
the law. The people of Pelham arc
pretty we'll divided on the matter,
some wanting it to continue and some
wanting it to close. Messrs. J. D..
Mckenzie and w. A. Covington were
employed some time ago by the fac.
ton opposing the dispensary to help
close it up. They sought to do so by
criminal procedure, arresting the dis
pensary managers. They gave bond
and demanded indictment by the grand
jury. Successive arrests were made,
but each time the parties gave bond.
When the grand jury met Judge
Spence charged them particularly to
find no bills against the dispensary
managers The dispensary opponents
then changed their tactics and sought
to close the dispensary by injunction.
This was taken to the supreme court.
A decision was rendered a few days
ago, three of the judges ruling against
the injunction and two ia favor of it,
all agreeing that indictment would be
permissible and is the proper manner
of procedure. 1t is thought that
Judge Spence will now offer no fur

pensary managers and that the dis

WHERE HONOR is MISPLACED.

Fortune L. Bailey, a machlnlst, Is
dead at indianapolis. Bailey is the
man who, it is claimed, was really the
inventor of the rapid-fire gun credited
to Calling. 1t is matter OF fact that
he was IN Gatling's employ and con-
ceived the idea of the rapid-fire gun,
but being without any financial re-
sources he was unable to bring out his
idea.
DR.. Calling, however, did so, and
the modern terror has always borne
his name. Before it was used by the
army several Improvements were sug-
gested by Bailey and acted upon. The
friends of the latter have always con-
tended that he was the real inventor
of the weapon which largely revolu-
tionized the art of war, and the facts
in the case would appear TO substantl-
ate their claim.
This is not the only case on record
by any means where just such incl
dents have occurred. Many men
whose brains have conceived some
valuable invention have been without
the necessary wherewithal With which
to place it on the market, and have
had it ruthlessly stolen by some man,
with more wealth and influence and
less brains. This is hard luck-very
hard-but it takes all sorts OF people to
vnalya nm world
