Dirty Burrows Row.

Burrows Row. we'll known place
in the city on Ninth street, was shown
in the pictures as the most VIGOROUSLY
dirty place in the city and although
it has been ordered cleaned up by the
city council, nothing has been done to
allay the nuisance.
1t is said that there was some tech
nicality In serving the notices that
prevented the work being done. This
will probably be remedied in the next
few days and the owners forced to
clean the place up.
In reply to a communication sent to
the mayor of Vincennes, Ind, some

Will Make Test Case
Over Near Beer Sale

Brunswick, Ga, July ia ques-
ton of great interest in the state
generally has just been brought out
here by the arrest of Manager Hug
gins, of the Bellevue Hotel on St.
Simons, charged with a violation of
the prohibition law by selling what
is classified as near beer.
The sale of this beverage has al
ways been permitted on the island,
but recently the Glynn county COM
missioners ordered the lid placed on
and the sale was stopped.
Now the question brought to issue
is: How can man be held for SELL
ing near beer without a license when
there is no provision on the statutes
of the state giving him the privilege
of securing license? Local attor-
neys differ as to their construction
of the law, and it is more than prob
able that test case will be carried
to the supreme court for decision

Aims House Letter
Carrier Is Dead
Had Been Inmate of Poor
House Over Forty Years

Atlanta, July 22.-Old Daddy
Jim Hill, who has been letter car
RE at the county aims house for
over forty years, died yesterday
in his eightieth year and will be
buried in the pauper's field, as no
living relatives of the old man are
known.
He drifted to Atlanta nearly
halt a century ago, a kindly, will
ing and Industrious soul whose
wits were slightly clouded. Un-
able to find work outside he went
to the poor house, and had been
one of it's most industrious and
valued workers ever since. For
forty years he worked happily
ten hours day, washing dishes
stringing beans and working in
the garden when he wasn't busy
handling the mail which was his
special care.

Georgia's Next Governor.

Atlanta-The big majority by
which the Tippins bill passed the
house last week revived gossip anent
a possible prohibition candidate for
governor, although the necessity for
the anti-Whisky element assuming
this attitude is not clear when they
are in a position to enact an air.
tight prohibition law for the state.
Heretofore talk regarding prohi-
bition candidate for governor has
had to do with Judge w. A. Coving-
ton. More recent rumors, however,
centered around Hooper Alexander,
of DeKalb, the moving spirit back of
the Tippins bill. However, Mr.. Alex
ander quickly set at rest to these
rumors by stating emphatically that
he had no idea of becoming a guber-
material aspirant. Leading prohibi-
tionists are opposed to making this
question an issue in the present
campaign.
This APPARENTLY kills off the last of
the possible entries and leaves the
field to John M. Slaton, of Fulton,
and Joe Hill Hall, of Bib.
All candidates for state house Off
ces must pay the assessment levied
by the state executive committee
by August |, so opportunity for
other entrants for the governorship
is rapidly passing.
AS often stated this campaign is
to be marked by unusual quietness,
and the candidates will do practi-
cally no general campaign speaking
over the state. Mr.. Hall fills in a
few dates now and then, VIII n
there is a slack in the legis a.
tive grind. Mr.. Slaton, however, is
remaining steadily on the job here
as presiding officer Of the senate.
He will have no opportunity to get
among the people in personal appeal
at all, since the legislature does not
adjourn until August IA. Under the
law the president Of the senate and
the speaker of the house are requir-
ed to remain on duty until five days
after the adjournment to sign bulls
i. passed at the latter part of the ses-
sion. This will keep Mr.. Slaton tied

South Carolina Act
for Warehouse Invalid

Columbia, S. c., July 19.-That
the act passed at the last session
of the legislature, entitled "Anact
to create and operate state ware
house system for storing of cot
ton and other commodities" which
carried with it an appropriation
of $250,000 for putting its provi-
sions into effect, violates the con-
stitution of South Carolina is the
position taken bv the supreme
court in decision handed down
this morning.
At the time of it's passage its
opponents contended it was un-
constitutional, but it passed and
received the signature of the gov
ernor. The case was carried to the
supreme court by the attorney
general in order that the matter
might be definitely settled.
! The act was one Of the most far
reaching pieces of legislation pass
ed at the 1912 session. 1t provided
that it shall be the duty of the
state warehouse commission to
provide by purchase, lease OF
otherwise a system warehouse at
the most eligible site in this state
capable of storing no less than $50,
900 bales of cotton.
The commission had been autho
rized by the act to issue coupon
bonds to the amount of $3.50, 00(
to carry out the provisions of thu
act. The supreme court holds tina
the act would appropriate public
revenues to private purposes, anc
that it also provides for an issue
of bonds and an increase OF thu
public debt without first submit
ing the question of the creation o.
such new debt to the qualified
electors of this state at genera
detection, is violation of section 9
article 10, of the constitution.

gia legislature now has before il
for consideration similar meas
