TAX BILL WILL BE LAW
EVEN WITH PROFIT. SECTION.
Governor Cannot, Ii He Would. Veto
One Section OF 1t.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 10.-If the Sen
ate passes the Alexander prohibition
section to the general tax bill there
is every indication that it will become
law. Under the constitution the Gov
ernor has no authority to veto sec
ton of the general tax bill. so he
must either approve or disapprove
the entire measure
1t is understood that in casual con-
yersat on Attorney General John C.
Hart takes this view, under paragraph
10 OF section l of article ) of the con
stitution, wherein the only exception
made with regard to the use of the
veto power relates to the appropriate
tons bill.
1t is specifically stated that the Gov
ernor may veto the whole of any sin
gle appropriation in the general ap-
preparations bill, but no such excep-
ton is made as to the general tax act
or any other measure. The conclu-
sion is, therefore, that the general tax
act must be passed upon as a whole
While it is generally believed that
Governor Brown would under his
promise made prior to his election
veto any measure proposing to make
change in the state prohibition law,
it is manifestly out of the question for
him to veto the entire general tax bill
in order to veto the prohibition legis-
lation which it will contain if the
Alexander amendment is finally en-
acted.

There is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
durable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly falling to cure with
local remedies, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and there
fore requires constitutional treat
ment Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by F. G. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. 1t is taken internally
in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon
full. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system
They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials.

calomel is a good medicine, but to be
