CITY TURNS DOWN
WATER FRANCHISE
Attorneys Hewitt and Mathews Advise
Council That Granting Permits
to Private Parties is
Bad Policy

Whether all bids for a water system
by private parties for the shoestring
strip shah be rejected or not caused a
discussion in the city council yesterday.
One bid had been filed by the Gold
Standard Investments company, owner
of the Vermont Villa tract, whose secre-
tary, G. N. Parks explained that per-
nit rather than franchise was wanted
merely to supply water for that SUBJ
division.
Councilman Wren stated that Legal
Adviser Mathews of the aqueduct
board opposed the principle of granting
water franchises to private parties,
whereupon Councilman Yonkin stated
that an opinion from the present city
attorney would be more to the point.
Mr.. Hewitt stated that In principle he
agreed with Mr.. Mathews.
Irrespective of the merits of this
case / do not like the idea of the city
giving away it's water franchises" said
he. There is no objection from point
of law, but purely from point of
policy.
1.-THE policy of the water board is to
supply water as quickly as possible in
the newly annexed territory"
Secretary Parks said all that was
wanted was a permit to lay pipes for
given time,.
1t was then decided to reject all bids
and to let the board of public works
wrestle with the question of granting
a pipe line permit.

GARRETT DEFENDS
HOSPITAL PLANS
NEEDS AMBULANCE AND TWO
NURSES
Called Unaware to Council Chamber,
He Scores a Point and 10 Au-
thorlzed to Make Ar
rangements

Surgeon Garrett Of the receiving hos
pital was called to the council chamber
yesterday at the suggestion of Council
man Wren to explain his ideas concern
ing Improvements in the nurse and
ambulance service at that institution.
DR.. Garrett did not relish the idea
much and said he spoke only because
Mr.. Wren had called on him to do so.
However, he believed that two trained
nurses should be obtained at once, as
the custom Of working with TRUSTEES"
from the jail was repugnant to the sur
geons and unpleasant for the patients.
AS to ambulances, the county hospital
authorities had refused to maintain an
ambulance service for the city, aud
patients were often obliged to remain
for hours at the receiving hospital
awaiting transfer to the larger institu-
tion.
Councilman Wren wanted to know IL
one surgeon could not be spared from
the staff and dropped from the pay
rolls in order to allow for the cost of
two nurses.
DR.. Garrett defended the present sys-
tenn of two chiefs and three assistant
surgeons, each of the three latter being
on duty eight hours and the chiefs
twelve hours.
He said besides the hospital cases the
staff had to look after all the sick
policemen and firemen. Two cases now
on hand called for trips by the doctors
daily to two extreme sections of the
city, three-quarters of an hour being
consumed in transportation each day.
DIR. Barbour of the county hospital
rendered the services of two of his
training school nurses, but some of the
councilmen regarded this as an uncer-
tain problem.
1t was finally decided to leave the
question to DR.. Garrett and county hos
pital authorities to settle and to report
next week. Some arrangement will be
made for an automobile ambulance for
Fiesta week.

WOMAN s ARM HAS
ELECTRIC POWER
Healer Who Claims to Draw Out Cor
ruption and Cure the Sick Says
She Has Divine
Gift

DR.. Nellie Beighle of San Francisco,
who has just returned from Paris,
where she says she submitted to an
examination of her arm by physicians
of the University of Paris in order
to give them a chance to explain a
power for healing which she says she
possesses, Is at the Hayward.
DR.. Beighle says that for twenty
five years she ha been possessed of
a strange healing power in the lower
part of her right arm and that the
electric vibrations which she trans
mits to other people are from a divine
source.
DIR. Beighle is a Scotch Canadian, 56
years of age, and since 1859 she has
been living in San Francisco, where
her life has been succession of events
not all of them smo tn and happy ones.
In spite of I ese she has fair COM
plexion like that of young girl and
says she never knows what 1t is to be
sick
Asked where she got the title of doc
tor the healer said it had been con-
ferred upon her first by the hundreds
of people whom she healed and had
later been confirmed by jury OF
twelve men in San Francisco, before
whom she was tried. She was charged
with practicing without a license and
using the doctor" when she was not
doctor She claims that doctor means
only one with knowledge and that M.
d. after a name signifies a knowledge
of medicine, and this she says she has
not.
Draws Out Corruption
She claims to remove disease from
the body by drawing out the corrup-
tion with her hand.
ST am only in America for short
time" said DR.. Beighle.
81 have just come from Paris, where
at the invitation of the physicians of
the university of that place / sub
mitted to a rigid examination. When
they had applied all kinds of cleo
trical tests they said tl.ey could not
understand the power II my right arm,
admitting that there IL something there
and offering no scientific explanation
for it.
II am going back to Paris, and
have made a proposition to the ply
sicians to go into one of their hos
pitfalls for two months and at my own
expense to treat ten patients whose
lives they have given up, and to cure
them.

JUSTICE PIERCE
PAYS FOR GIFT

Because Councilmen Yonkin, Drom-
gold, Blanchard and Pease wanted
Forty-first street opened and because
Councilmen Wren, Lyon, Clampitt and
Healy wanted Justice H. A. Pierce
to have a square deal, controversy
has arisen in the council that affects
several interests.
The section in question extends from
Hooper to Vernon avenues. When the
first opening plan was broached Judge
Pierce donated slices of his lots. 1t
is claimed Sherwood & Akin, who
own subdivisions, declined to grant
lands for street openings.
The case came before the council on
the question of a protest by the two
latter owners at both sessions
yesterday.
Judge Pierce claimed that his as
sessment amounted to $4,000. although
he had given land for the purpose Of
the city. Yet the protestants, Messrs.
Sherwood & Akin, escaped an assess
ment as he understood 1t.
In the morning session it was de-
cided to refer the question to the COM
mittee of the whole and the board of
public works jointly.
Objections Too Late
In the afternoon, at the suggestion
of Councilman Yonkin, an insert was
made in Clerk Lelande's report as read
by Clerk Carroll, the effect of which
was that the question was reconsid-
cred and Pierce's protest was lost
Unknown to the councilmen under this
vote Justice Plerce's claim was reject
ed on the ground that he had filed his
objection too late.
AS the vote stood, Councilman Wal
lace being absent on account Of the
death OF his brother. there can be no
appeal and no reconsideration.
This action will probably raise is
sues as to whether "inserts" can be
made in City Clerk Lelande's reports
hereafter, that official having stated
that such new matters as street OPEN
ing changes should be put In the form
Of a supplementary report, rather than
pasted In as was done yesterday, 1t
is claimed.
Justice Pierce's friends threaten legal
action, so that the controversy may be
far-reaching.

COUNCIL AUTHORIZES
DECORATING OF THE
CITY BUILDING

The council voted unanimously yes
terday to decorate the city hall for
Fiesta week.
Councilman Healy made the motion,
which was amended by Councilman
Yonkin, who suggested that a limit
of 800 cost be imposed.
The hall is in the custody of the
board Of public works and this body
will let the contracts for the deco
rative work.
All officials in the hall are enthus-
iastic over The Herald's suggestion
that flowers be lavishly used in deco
rating the electroliers, the front of
stores and buildings and in all man.
ner of forms for Shriners' week. Their
argument is the general one that when
visitors come to California they come
to see flowers and their wishes should
be gratified.

National Guard In Parade
Troop d of the national guard will
occupy prominent place in the Fiesta
parades. Until yesterday the guards
men were undecided as to whether they
would be at liberty to make an appear

and men agreed that the occosion would
be one at which their new dress uni
forms could be worn to advantage. A
full complement of the company is
promised, and the cavalrynen will do
much to preserve the order or the line
of march and keep the crowds from Inn

Members of the Independent Order of
Forresters have asked for a place in
the parade, and promise to enter a
handsome float to represent their order.
Members from three chapters of the
Eastern Star will also be in line, and
other fraternal and social organizations
will do what they can to swell the list
of entries.
The evening electrical parade will
cover the following route: Beginning
at Ninth and Main streets, where the
parade will form, the line of march will
be north on Main street to Temple,
south on Spring to Ninth, west on
Ninth to Broadway, north on Broadway
to Second, east on Second to Spring,
and there disband. This line of march
will be followed on all three evenings

The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1907-01-30

Mr. Roddenberry came all the way from Thomas
county to instruct the people of Terrell county how to
attend to their affairs-to advise them to close
rnelr dspensary and stop the legal sale Of whskey
1et' In Mr.. Roddenberry'S county, Thomas which
has So-caled prohibition, there more than One
Hundred Licensed Whskey Sellers who deal out the
stun at all hours of the day and night Every day
IN the week, and on Sunday, too In Terrell county
there are four licensed places where whiskey is sold
under restrictions only in broad daylight, from sun
up until sunset In Terrell county there have been
before the courts within ten years but two of
blind tigers" while in Thomas county during the
last FOUR years there have been dozens of such
in its courts
In which county are conditions the best?
Mr. Roddenberry should sweep before his own door

TIGERS AND POLITICIANS.

If it was all right for us to vote
for the dispensary as the lesser OF
two evils-barrooms or dispensary-
why is it now so wrong to vote for
the dispensary as the lesser of two
eyils-dispensary or the illegal sale
in its many forms in the shape of
blind tigers?
Now, some are saying the blind
tiger is mythical. He is the Invest
thing today in the so-called dry coun-
ties of Georgia, and is doing more
damage than any other force of
immortality that ~blights our fair
state. They are even here in Terrell
county in a limited number, but are
only caused by the sale of rot gut
Iiouor at exhorbitant prices. Mr..
Mercer tells us (and we believe him)
that he will amend the dispensary
law so this condition of affairs can
not longer and will not exist.
If you are one of the boys go
over to Randolph or Calhoun coun-
ty, and you can't help but see evil
dences of the presence and depreda-
tons of the blind tigers. If you had
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1907-01-30

gone to Webster or Sumter when
they were so-called dry counties you
would have seen the livest ones that
ever roamed at large. Go there now
and you will still hear complaints
of what the tigers did for them.
Now, watch the prospective tiger
vote in this election Watch the
evoluting politicians and see them
vote now, and see them four years
hence eVolute again. They have
MIXED on one side, and now propose
to milk the other When sentiment
revolts at conditions that will pre-
vail for four years of their milking
on this new side they will flop again,
and each fly to his respective teat
and milk on, playing upon the pref
udices of the people to rake in the
sheckles.
The writer knows very large ma
jOrity of those who oppose the dis
pensary are prompted by an honest
desire for better moral conditions,
but they are making a mistake by
not accepting the dispensary as a
fair compromise, especially when it
is so evident that all great reforms
come by and through these compro-
misses.

HOW THE DISPENSARY HELPS BUSINESS
Operates to Reduce Whskey Sales and Leaves More
Money to Be Spent With the Merchants A
Plain Statement of Facts
Plain Statement of Facts.

1t was noticeable fact that
Earnest William" when arguing
against the dispensary, laid especial
stress on the selfish side, where the
business man or merchant was con-
cerned, saying that every dollar
spent in the purchase of whisky was
just so much which would have been
spent with the dry goods or other
merchants. Under ordinary circum-
stances where barrOoms play a part
this may be true but he fails to take
up the argument along this line
where the dispensary is in reality a
real help to the other lines of bust
ness. AS was so well shown by the
Rev. c. B. Wilmer in a recent is
sue of the Atlanta Journal, and more
recently on this page, the dispensary
operates to cause the laboring man
especially to save his money, for the
reason that he is unable to purchase
whisky on credit, but must pay the
cash every time He thus will very
often, in fact will usually have no
whisky account to pay at the close
of the month when pay day comes
around, and as he can only then buy
the stuff in very limited quantity he
is most surely going to be in a posi-
ton to have and spend his earnings
for something else than strong drink.
The merchant, therefore, is far more
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1907-01-30

apt to profit by the presence of the
dispensary than if there should exist
any possible means of securing drink
under the credit system. With the
blind tiger" of prohibition or the
barroom of the open town" this lat
ter condition will certainly exist, be-
sides having the additional stimulus
of the selfish interest of the seller
to contend with. He, the seller, will
as matter of course exert himself
to sell all he can to any and all
corners, where it is a matter of profit
to himself All this selfish feature
is eliminated by the dispensary; all
the usual attractions held out to the
customer of the private dealer are
not to be found, the whole deal be-
ing a voluntary act on the part of
the purchaser.
Again, in the case of the dispen-
sary when a purchase is made if
there be a profit it goes back to the
people generally of the county from
which it came, while, should prohibi-
tion prevail, many thousands of dol
lars will leave the county to swell
the Golfers of dealers elsewhere, and
increase the tax digests of other
towns and counties.
If the financial side of the fight
must be aired let's look at it in
all its aspects.
