sioner of agriculture of Georgia, in
discussing the convention at New

"The convention which has found

Morris Wins Unique Contest.
J. Gid Morris will be treasurer OF
Cobb county. and Bolan Glover, who
has been holding that position for
number Of years, must step down and
out. according to a decision OF the
supreme court of Georgia, which was
handed down few days ago.
The high court has held that the
consolidation of the offices of clerk
of the superior court and treasurer of
a county is unconstitutional, and that
the legislature has no authority to
pass a law consolidating these offices.
The decision is a far-reaching one,
and will not only affect the county
of Cobb, but every county in the state
where there is a similar law.
About a week before the general
election, which was held last October,
J. Gid Morris, citizen of Marietta,
decided that it was illegal for Mr..
Glover to hold both positions and de-
cided to run for the office of treasurer.
He entered the race and received 1913
votes. A majority of the other peo-
pie voted for Glover as clerk and
treasurer combined. The election
managers refused to consolidate the
votes received by Morris, and to de-
clare any result. Hence the suit.

Counties win Claim Taxes.


The state of Georgia is probably fac
ing several suits over the tax money
which will be paid by the Georgia rail
road. The recent decision of the Uni
ted States supreme court, in which it
was held that the Georgia railroad
must pay to the state of Georgia
tax on $1,5OO,0OO worth of Western
of Alabama debentures, does not clear
up the situation any
While the money will be paid, the
counties of DeKalb, Fulton, Rockdale,
Newton, Morgan, Greene, Taliaferro,
Warren, McDuffie Columbia and Rich
mond county are going to claim their
share of it on the ground that it
should be apportioned to them just
as the tax of rolling stock is appor-
toned. Richmond county will also
claim that it is entitled to the greater
portion Of the money, as it is the
domicile Of the corporation.

he deserted to the enemy. Notwith-
standing this, he was on the pension
rolls,
