legislation with respect to state cleo
tions
The travelling men OF Georgia esti-
mate that heavy percentage of their
vote necessarily is omitted from every
ballot box opened in Georgia, because
of the fact that it is impossible for them
to go 70 their homes to vote without
great expense and loss OF time. not to
mention Inconvenience.
The travelling men feel that both
common sense and fairness should in
cline the legislature to furnish them a
legal method of registering their votes.
They think they should be permitted
to deposit their ballots wherever they
may be.
No men, as class. are more deeply
interested in politics than the travelling
men, and they are unusually well in
formed Their opportunities for hear
ing all sides of public questions dis
cussed in widely separated localities
enables them to put two and two to-
gether with accuracy and dispa tch.
Moreover, they are directly affected by
much legislation enacted, and their de-
sire to participate in elections is there
fore, particularly keen.
There is a plan being worked out now

This watch is of solid gold and was
manufactured in Atlanta away back
yonder in the good old days, when At

factories ever operated in the South
When the governor bought this
watch, is was the fashion to wear
watches with heavy closed cases, eIab-
orately engraved. Upon the question OF
engraving the governors watch, he and
the manufacturers had quite a little ar
gument, the former contending that
nothing could be more ornamental TO a

watch, for that matter-than the coat

IN NEW QUARTERS.
Corinthian Yacht Club to Locate
Near Potomac Park.

The Corinthian Yacht Club in a few
months will move from its present quar-
ters at 9th and Water streets southwest
to its new. site on the river near Potomac
Park. This decision was reached at a
recent meeting Of the club. The new site
is on the Virginia banks Of the Potomac,
and covers an area of about three acres
between the Highway bridge and the
Long bridge. The club has been cramped
for room at it's present location, where
mooring facilities have been at a pre-
MUM, and the members believe they are
particularly fortunate in securing the new
location. which, beside being on one Of
the most beautiful parts of the Potomac
near Washington, offers ideal boat club
facilities.
Large shore space. good depth OF
water, sheltered anchorage for scores of
boats and accessibility from Washington
are among teh advantages gained by the
change. Arrangements are already under
way for moving the property, and it is
expected within a few months the club
will be settled in its new home.
