Mr.. Kellogg first referred to the re

CITY HAS A CHANGING
FIRST time IN HISTORY
Mayor Mathis to Preside as
Recorder

Farewell to the olGtime mayors
court-a thing of the past in Mod
ern Americas" and in its stead comes
the recorders court, not unlike the
tribunal of Atlanta's "Jedge Briles"
but comforting the same powers. This
includes the establishment of a city
changing, and woe to the Ioiterers
and loafers here now.
This new piece of civic machinery
was put in motion yesterday, and be-
fore 10 o'clock had landed two vaga-
bond negroes in the chaingang for six
ty days each.
1t is most desirable change, and
means much for Americas.
Then, too, another boon and heaV-
emily blessing. There is no longer the
possibility of appeal to city council of
every case tried in police court, 70
matter how trivial, as has been pos
BILE under former conditions here.
This was often an unmitigated NUS
ance, generally speaking, for While a
very few meritorious causes were
thus appealed the large majority OF
cases were appealed to council sim
ply because the party fined in police
court had that right, under the law
By a recent revision ST the city char
ter that privilege, much abused, is
taken away. If defendant in police
court wishes to appeal from the may
or's decision in a case, the appeal is
made upon certi-orari and directly %
the City Court of Americas, where, if
questions of law are involved, it may
be retired there.
The city council is thus relieved OF
a vast annoyance and loss of time n
hearing over at length cases tried in
the police court.
The right conferred upon Mayor
Mathis to impose changing sentences
is also of advantage as evidenced N
the case of two Migrants before him
yesterday. These negroes. by their
own confession, we're Ioiterers and
had done no work in months. But they
will be busy for the next two
months, for a fact.
The police will be even more vigi-
liant now in arresting oilers and lott
erers for trial in police court.
