Dandy Fifth's Musicians in Lurch
MILITIA BAND NOT PAID

A tangie which threatens a real rift in
Atlanta's Dandy Fifth regiment has grown
out Of the refusal of the government to
pay the regiments band for its work dur
ing the recent encampment at Admission.
The government won't pay the band be-
cause it took only IL musicians to Annis-
ton instead of the Is, which is its regu-
lation complement.
The eighteen members of the band say
they furnished some of the best music
heard at the whole maneuvers. and they
have asked the officers of the regiment
to reimburse them for their time and
travel Some of the officers arose to the
occasion, chipping in 81, So and 81 each.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-08-06

But some of the officers refused to join
in the band fund because, they said, the
regiment ran canteen at Admission on
its own fund and TO it's own profit. They
say the profits of this canteen ought to be
diverted to the payment of the band.
They say that is the only proper way to
make up the musical deficit and that it
would be shameful to make them pay out
of their pockets a deficit that the gov
eminent has evaded through a mere tech
nicality.
The regiment has not taken definite
action in the controversy.
SO far no musician of the Dandy Fifth's
band has received a cent for his ten days
work al Admission.

judge of the Denver Juvenile court:

it had become evident that he was the

Attorney Manahan. whose speech of
Friday evening was quite fully reported
in the PRESS Extra" of Saturday
morning, made a strong point against a
denomination of President Taft. From
his " experience in the practice of
his profession Mr.. Manahan has know
ledge of conditions IN the federal courts
of our land which he characterized as
a judicial despotism." By right of
custom only the supreme court can set
aside decisions of lower courts and
make them null and void. Taft has
placed as chief justice, a man who, as
associate judge. gave a dissenting
opinion against the people and for
monopoly, while he has placed upon
the bench to fill vacancies. cor
poration lawyers who will decide for
monopoly every time. The interstate
commerce commission, supposed to re-
dress the wrongs of the people. had two
reactionay members whom Taft has
placed up higher IN the commission
court. whose other members are railroad
attorneys. This court has absolute
power over the acts of the interstate
commerce commission. Who would
wish to continue Mr.. Taft in office?

In Case of q Compromise.

Supreme Court Justice Hughes asks
that It be explained for him in the
press that he is not a candidate for the
Republican Presidential nomination.
He is not; most assuredly so. He has
said so many times. He adds that it
be said for him that he is out Of politics.
Quite so. This is one reason why he
is 50 much more desirable than others
who have been active and persistent
candidates for the nomination The
Justice concludes with the statement
that were all of the faction united in
requesting him TO be the nominee, he
still would refuse permission to use his

But if the Chicago convention should
nominate Justice Hughes for President,

man would decline.

tive ability, as he has amply proved as
Governor Of New York during one Of
the most trying and turbulent periods.
We do not think that he would de-

Bslgium's Anticipated Franchise.

The elections in Belgium were disap-
pointing, because that country has
missed the best chance presented to it
for many years of throwing off the
yoke of the Clerical-Conservatives,
which party has governed the small but
progressive kingdom since 1884
Since 1000 Belgium has had a system
of proportional representation under
which changes in the strength of par
liamentary parties are effected very
slowly Still, the Clerical majority had
been worn down by the Liberals, and es-
pecially the Socialists, until in the last
Chamber it was only six. 1t then be-
came necessary, owing to the growth
of the population as shown by the cen
sus, to add twenty new members, in
creasing the Chamber from 100 to IS6,
and the Opposition hoped to be able to
secure most of these. Instead, the
Clericals have increased their majority
from g to I6
The reasons for this result, which
came entirely unexpected, are rather
obscure as yet 1t IS said that the crimes
of the Bonnot-Garnier gang in Paris
and the British labor unrest were ex-
plotted successfully as terrible" ex-
amples of the fruit Of anti-Clericalism
and Socialism. The effect of the cleo
tions will be to rivet upon Belgium an
educational system under which her
people are the least educated in West
ern Europe, except the Spanish. Also
to once more postpone the much-needed
franchise reform, which no doubt is
the one condition which has to pre-
cede any of the other reforms needed
TO bring her up to the modern level.
The system of ballot in that country
is far too complicated for so small a
populace. Any male has a vote as soon
as he is twenty-one At thirty-fve, if
he can show legitimate offspring in
wedlock, he gains another vote, and as
soon as he can show a certain income
to allow him to pay a graduated poll
tax, he receives a third and a fourth
vote. Hence, although there was in
1904 only a population of 100000, there
were I,5SI,64o voters, having at their
command 2,467,o66 votes. Any one can
see with half an eye what an avenue
for corruption and the retaining of con-
troll such a method of distributing the
franchise opens up to the political par
ties.
