VETERANS NEED

Received no Such Instructions.

Tax Collector Thomson Says He Has
Received no Such Instructions.
The report from Atlanta to the ef-
feet that the Sons OF Confederate Vet
Grams will take the matter OF taxing
Confederate Veterans for licenses I'M
der the new tax act before the Supreme
Court to reverse the ruling of the At
torney General in the matter. was read
with some interest. but more surprise,
by Savannahians. 1t was not known
that under the recent enactment of the
Legislature, relative to specific taxes.
that the right of veterans to conduct
their business without paying for a
license had been hampered.
No one was more surprised than the
tax collector. In the instructions re-
Gently received from the controller gen.
eral, no mention of the abrogation OF
the veterans right was made, but con-
trarily it was specifically stated that
disabled, manned or INDECENT Confed-
crate veterans, on making oath to such
fact before the Ordinary, would be re-
lieved from the payment of the tax.
These instructions" said MIR. Thorn
son. referring to those most recently
received. ARE to all intents the same
as those received for several years
past, since the enactment of the statute
in 1897. which provided that disabled
veterans, blind persons, ETC., should be
allowed to conduct all classes of bust
ness, except the sale of liquor, without
paying for their license. In these in
structions. which were issued on Jan.
l, since the passage of the new law, I
am instructed to except such persons.
Il have received no instructions to
the contrary, and never knew before
that the Attorney General had held that
they were subject to the new tax. In
the absence of any instructions. 1 will

ing. and will be passed without a dis
senting vote.
GarfunkePs Election Certain.
The election of Mr.. Garfunkel has
been a foregone conclusion for some
time. A young man of ability, he has
been pushed to the front by his friends,
until seemingly there will be no oppo-
sition when his name is presented to
the board. Mr.. Garfunkel is a native
of Savannah, and was born on Nov Is,
1872. He graduated from the Boys
High School in 1888, and has always
lived in this city. Shrewd and wide
awake, he has made a success in bust
ness as well as in politics. and is
member of the firm of Garfunkel &
Sons. Mr.. Garfunkel will take charge
of the police department unhampered,
and his friends predict that with his
natural ability he will, without much
trouble, bring the department to a
high state of efficiency.
Applications Filed Tomorrow.
All applications for offices must be
filed with the clerk of Council by noon
tomorrow, and no applications will be
received after that hour Although
there have been quite a number of APP
plications filed for the three places to
be given white city physicians, only
one new man will be named, it is said.
DIR. B. Courshon will most likely be
chosen to serve with DR.. e. S. Osborne
and DR.. G. H. Johnson. Marion Lu-
cas- is slated to fill the vacancy on the
Board of Tax Assessors caused by the
death of Judge Philip NJ. Russell j.
ii. H. Osborne, chairman, and Samuel
Reynolds will be reelected without op-
