Hope to Finish List.
/ The increase of the list by $500
raised last night and yesterday leaves
balance to make up of $1,363.25
This amount the committee is san.
guine Of raising today and for that
purpose made fresh start this morn.
ing to clean up the list. The banks
are among the places visited today and
it is figured that If. eight 500 dona-
tions to make the conditional $1,000
started by Mayor Harper and Major
Mahon can be secured, the amount
will be raised today.
Only Eight PatroImen.
All was serene at all times during
the meeting last night and at times
the little settos among some Of those
present became rather spirited. The
desire OF some that the city cut down
the police force to ten men was said
by Mayor Harper to be largely inspir-
ed by men opposed to the raising of
the money needed and that many OF
these critics have lent an ear to men
whose desire to cut out the police
force and let the city become overrun
with gamblers, bootleggers,. leWd WON
en- and similar law breakers, their OBJ
ject being to insure the signing Of a
liquor petition at the close Of the year.
He said these men do not know the
police conditions. The mayor con
tinuing said that in three months the
city had cut down the police force
from twenty-five men, to thirteen men
and OF these the active patrolmen on
ly number eight.
MAu4r n>%AnAe Ae<lnna
He also said the fire department has
been reduced. from eighteen men to
twelve and that retrenchment has
been carried on to the extent of sever
al hundred dollars. II do not feel that
the city shows appreciation Of what
the administration is doing and do
not believe that the administration is
subject to criticism in its conduct thus
far, and am sure that If the critics
can offer, a better means of meeting
the question that confronts US, they
can very readily have my place and
I believe the aldermen feel much the
same way"
Good sound talks were made by a
number present and although the tilts
at times looked as II they might be
harmful, the men who were thus en-.
gagged have always been accustomed
to express their own views and are
not of the type to take offense at an
opinion that differs from theirs. A.
G. Harrow presided at the meeting
and when the adjournment was taken
all were fired with zeal to go after
the finish this morning.

ments.s Sellers said they could get a
little action on good work. but they
added that there was absolutely no out

light horses and that they could not
move such offerings. Horses that
cost $3.50 to s175 in the country are
started III the ring mere at $40 and can't
get a bid. Such animals should be
left in the country, as there is ahso-

uation and the same sentiment was
expressed by other dealers.

for months past ard it was thankless
task. Undaunted, However, this COM

morning and say they will raise the
money If 1t Is possible to secure it in
any way. One source to be seen to-
day is the banks Of the city, and these
institutions came in for their share OF
discussion last night. Some there
were who thought the banks could not
be asked, but more reasoned other
wise, and the men who did the discus
sing were largely holders of bank
stock too. Although the meeting was
small in numbers and for the first
half hour did but little before finishing
for the evening the men present got
down to business and $3.50 were sub
scribed by six men. or this there were
5000 conditional upon securing ten men
to either raise their donations, or who
have not already given and will give
500 and thus make $1,000, this with
the $500 already noted would make

more likely because the Suffrage BIZ

was positively identified today through

tried to WOO an Atlanta girl through

made by Judge Broyles and policemen
and reporters who had seen the matri-
monially inclined parson at the time
of his arraignment.
Another feature to the tangle has
been added by the receipt Of a letter
from Gaffney stating that Rev. w A
