roads exempt from taxation ran. These
counties had as much right to improve
ments as other counties.
He advocated the bill which, he said,
would mean much to the industrial pros
perity of the state. He hoped the amend
ments would be voted down and the sub
stitute acted on.
Senator Matthews thought the bill in
it's present shape thoroughly safeguarded
the interests OF the people. He thought it
unwise to look with suspicion on every
measure coming from the railroads He
denied that under the bill railroads could
remove their lines from towns and sta
tions. The bill, he said, was urgently
needed to help develop the Industrial in
terests of the state.
Senator Harrell spoke against the bill.
On motion of Senator Burwell the
amendment of Senator Blackwell that the
provisions of the act should not extend
to incorporated communities without the
consent Of the mayor or corporate Of
fcials. was accepted by the author. The
amendment was agreed to, 81 to 0.
SENATOR RUTHERFORD SPEAKS.

bill was Il piece of constructive legisla-

railroads. but II had been passed on by

proved its provisions. The time had come
when railroads should be given some as
sistance he thought. The time was past

When Representative Barry Wright or

tives and the political honor of the repre-
sentatives who were going to vote for
McIendon's suspension, 1t was admitted
even by Mr. Wrights opponents that
new star had risen in the field OF Georgia
oratory He said in part:
''Since the gentlemen who oppose sus-
pension have insisted on treating this
proceeding as a legal case, l mean to
meet them first on their own ground.
What defense, ask you, has Mr.. McLen-
don offered? Every answer made by the
commissioner has been an admission OF
guilt. Every step that he has taken, ev-
cry step the men who are supporting him
have taken, has been a confession of the
truth of the facts stated against him,
whether charged by the governor or re-
vealed by the Investigations of the COM
mittee.
Their tactics have BEEN to admit the
charges but to throw venom against
every man who attacked the commission

more sympathy for his personal suffering
than l. but no honorable man can permit
his private sympathies to interfere with
his public duties.

many other states have delegated to them

no stigma upon him except that which

which force his recall.
THE charge that he has had no fair

The indications are that the number of
Atlanta's babies for 1909 will show a de-
felt as compared to that of 1908. This in
spite of the fact that the city's population
has received additions this year both from
a natural increase and from the annexa-
ton of the Ninth ward territory which
alone brought into the city between $500
and 5000 new citizens.
The records kept at the office OF the
board of health show that during the
first seven months of the present year
there has been a falling of in the birth
rate among both white and colored cibs

in two ways. First the colored popu-
