Itinerants to Pay a Stiff
Price.

Itinerant dealers VINO come to
Americus to engage in business only
for brief time, really the cream of
the busy season, will pay for the
privilege, and pay we'll Besides an
ad valorem tax placed upon their
stocks of general merchandise, dry
goods, clothing, or such wares, they
will pay special tax of $100 for the
first month here, and $50 per month
thereafter. This special tax was
imposed at the meeting of the city
council Friday night, and will serve
to a great extent to keep out a class
of itinerants who come in competi-
ton with local merchants, the latter
bearing the burden Of taxation the
year round while the birds of pas
sage have escaped heretofore at small
cost in the matter Of taxes. The
council imposed special taxes upon
all lines of business here, practical
ly, but as the license ordinance is
not to be published in the paper, for
some inexplicable reason, merchants
and others interested will have to go
to the clerks Office at the city hall
to find out the amount of special taxes
imposed In other cities the special
license ordinance is given all pub
licity in the press, but not in Ameri-
Gus.

SALARY LIST FIXED AT
MEETING OF COUNCIL
Few Changes for Current
Year Made.

The arrangement of the salary list
and election of officers and heads of
departments was an important feature
of the meeting of the city council
Friday night, more especially to the
number thus directly interested
The salary of the Mayor was again
fixed at 5000, the old figure.
The salary of Mayor protein will
be $3.50 in addition to the regular al
dermanic salary of $100 And mayor
protein Childers will grace this posi-
tion during the good year 1908
City Attorney R. L. Maynard was
reelected to that position, which he
has filled with so much ability, and
the salary increased to $400 from
$500.
City Marshal w. H. Feagin was
reelected to that position at the sal
ary of $500, in addition to that OF
police chief
City Engineer Poe was reelected to
that position at salary of $1,000, and
in addition thereto he is permitted
to perform other work for himself
which will materially increase his
earnings during the course of a year
No changes were made in the wa
ter office, or was there any addi-
ton to the force, as was expected.
Fire chief w. p. Macarthur was re-
elected to that position and his salary
fixed at 5000, an increase of $50 per
annum, as was Assistant Chief Nor
ris at $3.50, an increase of $50 per
annum over former pay.
The firemens pay was fixed at
$500 each, the old figure, resulting
in the ''walk-out" next day
Engineer Robert Cameron, at the
city pumping station was reelected
and his salary increased from $83 to
$50 per month for the year.
These were the only places filled
by council. The standing committees
will look after their respective de-
partments, and all employees will be
again chosen, including Sexton Gid
dings and Street Superintendent w
d. Smith.
The extra street gang under Over
seer Kleckley will be discontinued
thus curtailing expenses.

A WALkOUT OF fIREMEN
OTHER MEN IN PLACES
Unusual Strike in AmeriCuS
Results.

AmericuS has witnessed few
strikes / nher career as a municipal
ity, but the climax was reached yes
terday morning when the fire depart
ment, with the exception of Chief Nc
Arthur and Assistant Chief Morris,
went out in a body.
And the going out was not III res
ponse to an alarm, though for an
hour it was not little alarming from
the firemanic standpoint
Five men thus quit work, and their
places have been filled.
The five firemen, G.. c. Morgan, c.
E. Guerry, ]. |. Hudson, Jr., ]. r.
Massey and R. L. Barden, doubtless
thought their salaries should have
been increased, with others, and
when informed that the old figure,
$500 would stand, they quit.
The matter was Immediately report
ed and a called meeting of the fire
committee of the city council was
held soon thereafter
There was nothing to do but fill
the positions thus vacated.
This was quickly done and within
an hour w. ]. Tinsley, R. D. Powell,
Stafford Smith, Robert Price and
Harrison Finch were on duty as
firemen and busy at work
Messrs. Tinsley and Powell had
recently done police duty, but as
their time was up last night they
readily took the new places.
The firemen who thus walked out
are experienced men, several having
served long in that position The
council evidently though $500, with
uniforms furnished and the time off
allowed, was sufficient pay, and did
not increase it.
The walkout caused a breeze of in
terest at headquarters, but the force
is all complete again.
