SESSION OF 1884 LEGISLATURE.
Great Reunion Of Georgia Lawmakers
of That Year Planned.


Atlanta, Ga.-An extraordinary SEES
sion of the state legislature of 1884
may be called at an early date by
Governor Henry D. Mcdaniel.
Such an occurrence will be most
unusual, but it was discussed very
seriously at meeting held in the Of
fee of Judge Richard b. Russell of
the court of appeals, attended by
Judge John G. Hart, attorney general
of Georgia; Ex-Governor William J.
Northen; John w. Lindsay, pension
commissioner, and T. H. Niblack and
Colonel B. F. Abbott Of Atlanta. All
the above were members of that leg
islature.
For the business in hand, these gen.
tlemen decided that Governor Brown,
the present administration and the
legislature of 1909-10 would have to
be ignored. On the occasion of this
extraordinary legislative session, any
man who was not member of the
notable body which met in Atlanta
in November Of 1884 viii be rank
outsider.
The legislature which met that
probably contained as many men who
have since risen in positions Of
greater prominence in the state as
any legislative body which ever met
in the state
That was the legislature which
Henry w. Grady adjourned "in the
name Of the American people" on the
occasion of the first election Of Gro
yer Cleveland as president.
Hon. w. A. Little Of Muscogee, was
speaker of the house. United States
Senator A. s. Clay was a member, as
were Congressman William G. Brant-
ley, Charles F. Bartlett and former
Congressman F. Carter Tate, Dr. w.
H. FELTON, and Judge A. w. Fite rep
PRESENTED Cobb county.
Ex-Governor Joseph M. Terrell at
that time represented Meriwether.
Colonel ODE Stevens, now a member
of the railroad commission, was the
gentleman from Terrell" and Thorn
as Eason, formerly member of the
prison commission, was the gentle
man from Telfair."

M'LENDON WINS FIRST DECISION.
Deposed Railroad Commissioner Given
Decision BY Savannah Judge.

Decision BY Savannah Judge.
Savannah, Honorable IS. G..
McLendon, deposed railroad commits
sioner Of Georgia, won his quo war
ranto proceedings against Joseph F.
Gray.
Judge Charlton handed down de-
cision in favor of the deposed former
chairman of the railroad commission.
This means that the judge upholds
McLenodn's claim to the Office.
In deciding the case, Judge Charl-
ton said. eff an officer is proceeded
against for cause, he is entitled to no.
tice and a hearing, and if he is not
given notice and hearing the action
against him is as if it had never been.
in this connection il is pertinent to
observe that so far from a discretion
airy power of removal having been
conferred upon hearer, he had no pow
err to remove He suspended and it
was the general assembly that re-
moved. The method employed was
not that of Impeachment and was
therefore not that required by the
laws of Georgia.
"Under impeachment proceedings
the senate could not have removed
the relator without a two-thirds vote.
The vote it actually gave was ma
jority of three and of the eighteen
men who voted in the negative sew
enteen put themselves on record as
entertaining views on the unconsti-
nationality of the act of 1879, which,
if persisted in, would have made the
Impeachment impossible"

From all indications the price Of

are many reasons to predict the adj
vance to this high figure" continued
Colonel Hudson. 1.-THE shortage of
the crop and the general conditions
will be responsible for the advance.
do not think that the Georgia crop
will reach over 100000 bales. 1t
may be 100000 bales, but the first
figures appear to be correct. do
not think that the total crop will be

the state of Georgia are in violation
of the state banking law, declares At
torney General Hart, in written
opinion.
Judge Hart holds that one bank, no
matter what the amount of paid-in
capital stock may be, cannot organ
lie a branch bank in the same city,
or in any other city, although it may
open a branch Office at which deposits
may be received.
The matter grew out of an applica-

establish a branch bank in Georgia
without being incorporated under the
laws of this state. The attorney gen
eral holds that this connot be done.

Of these things.
The skilled painter in every commu-

the incompetents get jobs generally by

when the skilled painter Is hired. they
do not leave everything to him, as so
many property-owners boast they do.
They interfere most ignorantly and
most fatally. They insist sometimes
on using paint materials without in
vestigating whether they are good or
not. Or perhaps they insist on the
painters hurrying the work.
