ASSISTANCE OF DOPE DEALERS
Is Sought to Prevent Imposition of
Five Cents Tax.


Dawson dealers, druggists and cafe
owners alike, have received urgent
letters from Atlanta manufacturers
of fountain syrups asking aid in an
effort to defeat the legislative meas
ure which will place special tax of
five cents per gallon on dope"
The measure has passed the house
and gone to the senate, hence haste
was urged,
Dawson dealers were requested to
bring to bear their influence to the
end of having their members in the
legislature defeat this 'class legisla-
ton bill"
Whether or not they will do so re-
mains to be seen.

HOUSE VOTES TO TAX ALL DOGS
To Be Seized and Sold or Killed II
Not Paid.

Not Paid.
After a half days debate the lower
house OF the Georgia legislature has
voted to tax dogs one dollar a head.
An amendment by Ellis of Bibb
provides that if the tax is not paid
the dogs shall be levied on and sold,
and If the purchase price does not
equal the amount of the tax the dog
shall be killed.
The bill will now go to the senate,
ara what its fate there will be can't
be conjectured.

The next attraction announced at
the Burt in Toledo for half week
commencing Sunday afternoon will
be Langdon McCormick's theatrical
triumph Wanted by the Police
which will be its first advent in this
city. 1t Is said to be justly entitled
to the slogan of the somewhat diff.
ferent play" as it Is not of the COM
mon place melodrama that the thea.
tre-going public have long grown
tired Of. The want of something new
has been fulfilled by this, the latest
of the Mittenthal Brothers produc.
tions. While the story may be con
ventional, it is clothed in new dress
all the intensity of dramatic
thrills that patrons Of the strenuous
plays have grown to enjoy. On Wed
nesday night the stage will be set
in full view of the audience.

Toledo Theatres
Attractions at Valentine Theatre, To.
ledo. Week of January Fourth.

Experts have stated that the chorus
of "The Top o. The World" which
comes to the Valentine theatre, Tole-
do, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
January 4th, 5th and 9Th, boasts more
pretty girls than any other musical
show now extant. During the five
months run at the Majestic and Ca
sino theatres in New York City, Man
ager James M. Allison made 1t a
point to recruit his chorus in the big
musical extravaganza, with the pret-
tiest and cleverest young ladies OBJ
tainable. The company includes eigh-
ty-five and comes here with the en-
tire original production and cast. The
piece is full of excellent songs, dane
es, wit, humor, elaborate stage set
tings, and marvellous electrical ef-
fects. A feature that is expected to
win approval is the Collio Ballet in
which six girls and six dogs do re-
markable dance.

Henry Miller will appear in "The
Great Divide" "the long awaited great
American play" as the leading New
York critics have called 1t, at the
Valentine theatre, Toledo, Ohio,
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, jan
uary 7th, 8th and 9th. That this en-
gagement will be one of the memor-
able events of the season there can
be no question. No play written within
the memory of the present generation
has been so thoroughly discussed and
SO unanimously endorsed by the fore
most dramatic reviewers. For two
seasons "The Great Divide" has play
ed to enormous business in New York.
Every reader Of the newspapers and
periodicals is familiar with the en-
phatic verdict of popular approval ac-
corded this brilliant drama of Ameri-
can life from the pen of William
Vaughn Moody, who has won recog-
milton as the first American dramatist
to write really great American play.
In the masterful presentation of the
piece Mr.. Miller has again proven the
scope and quality of his genius as a
stage craftsman. The play will be
presented here with the complete
production, scenic equipment and ac-
cessories just as given for over five
hundred performances in New York.

It will seem good for President Taft to find himself once more in Washington under his own roof and fig tree. He has had a great time and has been confronted by the most kill ing bills of fare the skill of 6 thou sand chefs could set before him, and he has tackled everything from the frothing insurgents to a Georgia breakfast made up of waff1es. quail fried chicken, sausage, steak, broiled ham. broiled chicken and "grits," etc, and he is in good form and ready to buckle right down to work, which Is as wonderful as the return of the world -encircling fleet of battleships in good shape and ready for conflict so far as condition was concerhed. It is a masterly feat to be the honored guest at a hundred banquets and to finish up without being obliged to rest or to call for a doctor. He can do a series of banquets and not have them do him and this is so rare an achieve ment that it must rank high Now that is leaving the corn pone, buck wheat cakes, bacon gravy, and sweet potatoes, baked apple and hot bread of the south behind, him, he may be expected to find pleasure fin his plain home diet and to be getting an appe- tite for the Rhode Island turkey which will give eclat to his Thanksgiving dinner.

Governor Weeks.

We are pleased to learn that Gov ernor Weeks made, as was inevitable, a favorable impression upon our ap- preciative fellow citizens of the south, during his trip down the Mississippi with the president and afterwards. No intelligent gentleman can meet the governor and not be favorably im- pressed by him. The New Orleans Times Democrat prints the following notice, which shows that it has seen and judged the governor very accur- ateIy:
 ''The most dignified governor. and one of the most dignified men of the entire party, is Gov. F. B. Weeks of Connecticut. Governor Weeks some what reminds one of an Englishman. He's a New Englander, however. One of his hobbies is improving the condi- tion of the state charities. Governor Weeks was joshed' along the line about the nutmeg groves of Connecti-, cut. and enjoyed the. joke as much as any of the others. While there are no nutmeg groves in his state. and 1t is not the largest state in the union, Governor Weeks is for a deep water way, improvements of any kind, in fact, and another trip down the Mis- sissippi whenever the promoters of the project get around to it again. Governor Weeks is one of the popular members of the party"
