A FIGHT MADE ON
REGISTRATION
LAWS
THIS SUBJECT OCCUPIED ATTEN-
TioN OF THE SENATE YESTER
oAY-A COMPROMISE MAY BE
REACHED.

Atlanta, July 2S.-A fight on the
present registration law of the state
and the new bill recently introduced
in the senate, occupied almost tae
entire time of that body today.
An effcrt to call the previous ques-
ton failed, as the senate wanted
full discussion on the subject.
Many members of the senate par
ticipated in the discussion of the law
during the day, but nothing definite
was done. 1t is believed however,
that a compromise will be affected,
making some slight changes in the
present law. Voters will be allowed
to register three months before any
state election, instead of six as is
the law at present
1t developed during the debate to-
day that a large number of the sem
ators are in sympathy with the pres
ent law, arguing that it goes to pur-
ify, to gret extent, politics in the
state They argue that, if voters are
required by law to register six
months before state election, that
the registration books will be closed
before candidates are out and, in this
way, there will he no campaign fund
to pay taxes Of the purchasable
votes.
On the other hand those who want
a new law argue that thousands Of
voters have been disfranchsed by
the new law, pointing out that they
do not get interested in a campaign
until after the candidates have an
nounced, and consequently they do
net register. This, they claim, is the
cause of the great decrease in the
total number of registered voters in
the state this year.
1t is likely that the subject will be
taken up again tomorrow and finally
disposed of.

MADE G0OO SPEECH
CONGRESSMAN RRANTLET AD-
DRESSES THE WAYcECSS
BOARD OF TRADE.

Consvess.n2n Brantley was the
guest Of tie Waycross board Of trade
at a bis meeting aeld on Wednesday
nignt, and he was the principal speak
er Of the evening. Mr.. Brantley's ad-
dress was along general lines and is
of interest all over the district. The
Waycross Herald of yesterday gave
the foil wing account Of his speech:
In an able and interesting address
las. night before the Waycross Board
of Trade, the attendance being the
largest this organization has known,
Congressman William G. Brantley,
spoke of the proposed federal build.
irg for WavcrOsS, and discussed 9th
er matters in which Waycross and
Ware county are deeply interested
in.
Congressman Brantley told that
Waycross, with postal receipts lit
tie of $4,000 for last year, had re-
ceived in appropriations more money
than cities throughout the United
States with a larger showing in pos
tai receipts. He stated that the COM
mon belief that the government had
set pattern by which tc construct
all postoffice buildings was a mistake
The figures given by him as the
amount secured for Waycross totaled
$82 900.
He also discussed the efforts made
10 secure another federal judge for
Georgia In this connection Con
gressman Brantley said that if he
could have his way the state would
be divided into three districts, the
northern, middle and southern, with
Atlanta, Rome, and Athens in the
Northern, Macon, Augusta and Co
lumbus in the middle, and Valdosta,
Albany, and Savannah in the South
ern. The possibility of having a
court established at Waycross was
mentioned, as was the probability of
the government constructing a court
fee in case such court should be es-.
tablished.
The investigation of the Satilla riv-
er by the government with a view of
ascertaining whether or not it would
be feasible to use same in connecting
a barge canal from Waycross to the
sea was told of by Congressman
Brantley. He has secured for an ad-
ditional survey from Burnt Fort be-
low this city, to the Atlantic Coast
Line trestle at Waycross, the sum
$4,000. 1t is the first time Wayaros
has figured in a waterways approp.'i-
alton, and hopes are entertained that
the plan will be favorably reported
and additional appropriations secur-
ed to carry on the project A rising
vote of thanks was given the con-
gresham at the close Of his address.

ST!E[:l!!M|!St!p {: |! TALK
JACK KSONVILLE THINKS THERE
is SOMETHING IN ALL OF
THE RUMORS.

The Jacksonville Times-U Union lof
yesterday says:
Now comes the stcry from Bruins
wick, Ga, that the Clyde line has
abs rbed the Brunswick Steamship
Company and will, in the near future
inaugurate regular freight and pass
enger service between Jacksonville,
Brunswick and New York Story to
this effect was published in the Bruins
wick News Of yesterday, and coming
right on the heels of the statement
that tie Mallory line would enter
Brunswick is interesting and full Of
significance for the future CONNER
cial Importance OF ports involved
That the Clyde line cOntemplates
ard has plans for daily service be-
tween Jacksonville. Charleston and
New York, is a well known fact, as
H. H. Raymond, vice president and
general manager of the company. on
recent visit to Jacksonville, was
quoted as saying it was the dream of
his life tC have a ship sailing each
~
and one each way from New York to
Jacksonville.
The Brunswick rumor and just
what significance it will have for the
port OF Jacksonville, is cOnsummated
is matter of conjecture as lccal
officials Of the Clyde line will neith-
er affirm or deny the rumOr which
fact lends it authenticity
Both the Clyde and Mallory lines
which are mixed up in the several
rumors going the rounds in refer
ence TO Jacksonville, Brunswick
and New York service, have the same
interest and it would certainly seem
that behind the smoke there is some
fire

CANNOT SETTLE DAMAGE SUIT
WITHOUT CONSENT OF CLIENT

Atlanta, July 28.-In the house to-
day bill was passed which makes it
unlawful for any attorney in the
state to settle a damage suit without
the consent CT his client.
Much interest has been manifested
in this bill and no opposition was Of
fered to it. 1t was alleged by the ad-
vocates of the bill that often settle
ments were made by attorneys unbe-
knowingly to their clients, and which
were not satisfactory to them.

STATE CAMPAIGN
BEGINS To GET
LIVELY
BOTH SMITH AND BROWN HEAD
QUARTERS REPORT THEY ARE
MUCH ENCOURAGED OVER
THE OUTLOOK.

Atlanta, July 2S.-Gov. Brown is
undecided whether during the pro-
gress of the gubernatorial campaign
he will issue any "cards to the peo-
pie of Georgia" bearing upon the is
sues involved. He will, he says, de-
termine upon his course in this re-
spect when he feels that the exigen-
cies demand a decision. In the mean
time, he will devote himself to offic-
ial duties at the capitol and such po-
litical correspondence as the cam
paign may develop.
The governor stated today that he
had teen by his campaign headquar-
ters only once since the rooms were
opened. Usually, he says, the quar-
ters are colsed before he leaves the
capitol, on which account he hasn't
visited them mere frequently.
Aside from commenting on the
''newslessness' of the campaign, the
governor had nothing to say concern
ing the situation.
Campaign Manager Maddox again
expressed himself as well pleased
with conditions throughout the state.
we received a good mail this
m rning, and | gather from it that
the campaign is warming up some,
said MIR. Maddox. 81 am glad the
people are beginning to take an in
terest in the matter, for | believe it
will be to the governors interest
In the headquarters, there We're
seven other people, in addition to
managers and clerks. 1t was stated
that most of these were from cut.of-
town, and were awaiting their turns
to see Mr.. Maddox.
According to Messrs. r. J. Griffin
and H. Y. McCord, in charge of the
Smith Headquarters, the crowd in
the rooms today represented 43 cCun-
ties located in various sections of the
state, and from each of these coun-
ties, it was stated, the callers had
brought encouraging reports about
conditions.
And the day isn't half done yet,
they added 1--WE expect this many
mere callers before night, and it
would be asking too much for better
or more encouraging reports
Mr. Griffin. who was intimately ac-
quainted with conditions in each of
the other campaigns in which Mr..
Smith was a candidate, declared that
conditions today are better than he
has ever seen them, in so far as the
former governors chances are con-
cerned
"In the brightest days of the 1906
campaign, when Mr.. Smith made a
clean sweep, there was never a time
when conditions seemed as favorable
TO his election as they do today said
Mr.. Griffin. 'ln my Judgment, he is
much stronger now than he was in
either of the other campaigns, both
in Fulton county and throughout the
state"
The mail is getting bigger every
day, according to the mail clerks in
headquarters, and the managers are
finding it necessary to employ cleri.
cal help, in order to keep up with
the increase.

The following resolutions were in
troduced
By Alderman Ludwig to appro-
pirate $500 for the board of trade
provided that body raise like sum
from other sources.
The ordinance by Alderman Gold
smith prohibiting the exhibition of
prize fight pictures, was placed on
its second and third reading and was
passed and adopted. The ordinance
by the same alderman to prohibit
the display of wares on the side
walks, was withdrawn.
Alderman Cox inquired as to what
had been heard from the engineering
company, in reference to the test of
bricks sent them some time ago. AL
derman Ludwig explained that the
= Speckman Engineering Co., had ad-
vised the city engineer that the first
test was not complete and that an
other sample of the brick be sent.
Alderman Cox here moved to re-
vert to the head of resolutions and
then introduced resolution instruct
ing the clerk to wire by night mes
sage the Speckman Engineering Co.,
for information as to the progress of
the test of brick sent that company
on July 1S.
Alderman Ludwig opposed the res
olution and explained that the. neces-
Sity for such telegram did not ex-
ist, as the Speckman Engineering
Co., had advised that the first test
was not complete and had asked for
more brick. The aye and nay vote
was taken, after Alderman Cox had
excoriated the city engineer for alb
senting himself from the meeting of
council, instead of filing the report
with council. The vote resulted as
follows: For the resolution, Alder
man Boyle, Baker, Cox and Leo.
Against the resolution Aldermen
Ludwig, Cook and Goldsmith. i
So the resolution was adopted and
the city was PLACED in the ridiculous
position of asking the Philadelphia
concern for information which the
vice-chairman of the committee on
public works, says is already en- file
in the city engineers Office.
After the reading cf accounts, coun
Gil adjourned
