NOT ALLOWED BY STATE EXECU.
TIVE COMMITTEE TO SETTLE
PROHIBITION QUESTION.
A DEAF EAR TO ARGUMENT

Subcommittee Chosen at Caucus
Turned Down Governor Browns
Letter and Pleas StovaIl's Resolu-
ton. Whiskey Question Remains
in Personal Politics.
ATLANTA, Ga.-Joseph M. Brown
and Pleasant A. Stovall of Savannah
went on record before the state dem
ocratic executive committee today as
fayoring submission of the prohibi-
ton question to the voters of the
state.
Both were turned down cold, as
was admitted would be the action
of the committee prior to it's meet
ing.
Governor Browns letter to Chair
man Wright was clean-cut and to the
point 1t did not mince words, but
drove straight to the heart of the
matter And as a cIinching argument
for such action Governor Brown quot
ed from speeches of Pope Brown and
Judge Russell to show that both we're
on record as favoring, like Governor
Brown, taking the whiskey question
out Of personal politics.
When the subcommittee, really
chosen at the morning caucus of a Sc
lect few of the committee in the
Kimball, but perfunctorily named by
Chairman Wright after the commit
tee met in the senate chamber al
noon, brought up the question w. w
Lambdin offered the observation
that such action would be unprece-
denied and would not be binding
even if the committee passed upon
it favorably." This appeared to enc
it 50 far as the subcommittee was
concerned, and they Jumped Gov.
ernor Browns letter and Mr.. Sto
wallis resolution into the discard.
None of those who argued agains
submission did so on the ground thai
the matter can be settled as an issue
between candidates. In fact, they al
declared that it could not be settled
in that way.
Mr.. Stovall's resolution was brie
and to the point. 1t read as fol
lows:

prohibition or local option be sub
mitted to the people of Georgia il

FAITHFUL MULES MONUMENT.
A Poetical Inscription on Stone That
Marks Her Grave,

hdfkS her OEFaVe.
A mule, as rule, is not friend
of mankind, because of the hosting
propensities of its hind legs; but an
animal of this race that was the ex-
ception was owned by the National
Transit Company of Sharon, Pa, and
used to transport pipe for many
years. Maud was her name, and a
better mule never pulled in the
traces. Maud died suddenly. She
was buried in a woods near by, and
workmen will put a stone over her
grave bearing the following epitaph:
Here six feet deep and fast asleep
The friend of George Payne lies;
Charlie Logan dug her grave
And Bob Shaw closed her eyes
Maud was a very gentle mule,
The best that ever walked;
Worked throughout the entire dav
And ne'er was known to balk.
The animal had hosts of friends
who mourn it's demise.

.SUFFRAGISTS ARE STORMY
AFTER ACRIMONIOUS WRANGLE
ANNA SHAW AGAIN PRESIDENT
Frequent Clashes Between Delegates
From the East and Those Repre-
Sentin0 Other Sections


From the East and Those Repre-
senting Other Sections.
LOUISVILLE.-After half a day
of womanIy turmoil, in which femi-
nine temper and legislative capabili-
ties were sorely tried, DR.. Anna How
ard Shaw of Moylan, Pa, president
since 1905 of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association, in con-
vention here was reelected this af-
ternoon.
Second honors went to Miss Jane
Adams of Hull House, Chicago, who
had agreed before leaving Louisville
to accept the post.
DR.. Shaw's election came after sew
eral sharp struggles in which the
eastern division of the suffragists
clashed with those representing other
sections of the country. Most Of
these clashes had to do with a pro
jected transferring of the national
headquarters from New York to Chi
cago, acclaimed by others than east
erners as the storm center of Ameri-
can suffrage work.
Her Election a Condition.
The non-eastern division had been
severely torn between their abound
ing love for and belief in Miss Shaw,
who had let it be known she could
continue as president only if New
York retained the headquarters.
Miss Shaw's election is believed to
have settled or postponed definite
decision on this question for year
at least.
1t was a section of the revised con-
| stitution, which provided for monthly
meetings of the official board com
posed of national officers, that occa-
stoned numerous sharp exchanges.
The section amended so as to call for
meetings of the board at least once
in every two months finally was
adopted. Inasmuch as the question
involved the proposed headquarters
transfer and possibly the choice of
officers it provoked heated debate,
some of the delegates getting almost
personal.
Most of the debate followed an an
nouncement by Miss NJ. Carey Thorn
as, president of Bryn Mawr College,
that three women had offered to sup
ply money to defray travelling ex-
penses of officers going to the BIZ
monthly board meetings. Evidently
mistaking the point one delegate in
t1mated criticism of the administra-
ton by national officers of what has
been known as the Susan B. Anthony
$4,000 fund. Several arose at
once to protest, but Miss Shaw recog-
nized none and ex cathedra refuted
the insinuation of injudicious use of
the money, and, with tears in her
eyes, explained the circumstances in
detail.

no finding. however. that these col

the building, or that they were not OF
suitable quality and dimensions and
perfectly adapted to the purpose for
which they were designed. They We're
in fact incorporated into the building

it appears from the findings of the ref

JUDGMENT FOR PLAINTIFF.
Law Court So Decides in Equity Case
Involving Mechanics Lien

fbe i;Iw court Thursday handed
down "a decision III the .AndraSccggin
county case of Fletcher CroWeli Co.
III equity, Ys. oyide CheYalier. Getag
Duellarne and l. Union Musicale, own
en- involving the enforcement of a me-
chanic's lien for materials. The re-
script. i hich WIS drawn by Chief JUS
tieet Nlnteheuse, gives personal judg-
luent for the plaintifl. for materials
furnished to the amount of sl72os0,
and lien on land and buildings for
sSa5.s0 and Interest. i'll connection with
two steel columns set and afterWard
removed. The rescript is as follows:
In tiiis suit the plaintiff seeks 10 en-
force mechanics lien for materials
alleged to have been furnished TO the
defendants Chevalier and Ducharme
aiB the construction of a building which
they had contracted TO erect for the
defendant L'Union Musicale. the own
or OF the land and Tor which they had
agreed to provide ali the materials and
perform all the work.
Upon the facts reported two ques-
tons are presented for the determi-
nation of this court; first, whether the
plaintiff is entitled to a lien for ma
sltiltlE nlStiSd u Alit dIiOQIll VI
$172g60 (which were never used in the
construction of the building at any
time in any way" and second, whether
the plaintiff is entitled to lien for the
item of $40 for the two iron columns
that were set in the building and af-
forwards taken out by order of the
owner of the land.
1t is provided by Section % of Chap
ter SO Of the Revised Statutes that
! Whoever performs labor or furnishes
labor or materials in erecting. altering.
moving or repairing a house, building
.eor appurtenances by virtue of q
eeohtract With or by consent of the
sowncr has a lien thereon and on the
land on which it stands. =. TO secure
payment thereof with COSTS
"A lien is given upon the ground
that the work has been a benefit to
! the realty, and has enhanced its
value
The theory, of the lien is, that the
party furnishing materials for the
erection or the repair OF buildings on
: credit retains his claim to them after
they have gone into the building, and
to enable him to enforce it his lien is
spread over all the property with
which the materials have become in
z s,,,.,rahIv connected. Hence ne is
gwen a lien upon the whole building
and the land on which it stands. But
"a give q lien for all the material sold
ro. tho nu,nose of going into the
building, irrespective of the actual use
'of IL for that purpose might have the
effect of creating a lien to the full
value of the building on which it
stands. in favor of parties whose

paired the building, or who had done
