The city's long fight to assess the
right Of way property of the Seaboard
Air Line and the Georgia railroad along
Dekalb avenue has been taken before a

The case, or one similar to it, has
been tothe supreme court and the rail
road company was returned a partial
victor. Temporary iujunctions were
sustained by the high court.
While the actual tracts of the Sea-
board are not involved in the present
suit, James L. Mayson. city attorney,
expects to impress upon the court the
existence of the Atlanta charter
amendment passed at the last session
of the legislature, giving .he munich
pality the right to levy on portion of
the railroads tracks.
Judge w. D. Loving, f. F. Pomeroy
and c. ]. Simmons, .Jr., appearing for

WOMAN IS
ELIGIBLE IS
DECISION
May Hold County Office,
is the Ruling Of
High Court.

Oklahoma City, Oct. "a. That a wo-
man otherwise qualified is eligible to
hold office OF clerk Of the district court
in Oklahoma is the decision Of the
Oklahoma supreme court in the case
brought by Henry C. Gnlnand against
she county election board Of Jackson
county to compel the placing Of his
name on the ballot as the Democratic
nominee for that office Oh the ground
that Miss Maude Kimball, his success
ful competitor at the primary, was not
eligible To court now holds in an
opinion by Justice Kane that she is,
and says further that It would be a dis
tinct loss to the state to deprive it Of
the services Of such am intelligent and
efficient portion OF its citizenship as
would be the case If women were ex,
cluded from public office.
It has been eontended that the pro
vision Of the constitution which ex-
pressly makes women eligible to the
offices OF county superintendent and
notary public excludes them from all
others The court holds that this is
not the case and that the fact that the
constitution requires that the occu.
pants Of certain offices shall be male
citizens or electors, which means the
same thing in Oklahoma. leaves the
others open.
II is pointed out that for years prior
to statehood, and also since that time
women have apparently by common
consent occupied many ministerial po
sitions in state aud county affairs
that the clerk Of the district court is
! d ministerial office and its duties ar,
In no way incompatible with the in
oumbency Of a woman who is qualified
to frl the office. Reference is mad,

bell had been a deputy in the sam'
office and her qualifications for thl
office were generally known to tn.

Judge Kane states that women hav

that the constitution in fixing the qua
