Tax Must Be Paid On
Penny Drinking Cups

Waycross, Sept. Exchanging
that slot machines are being
operated on passenger trains Of
the Atlanta, Birmingham and
Atlantic in Ware county when
no license for such machines has
been paid County Tax Collector
J. T. Strickland, to-day swore
out warrents for the arrest of
H. M. Atkinson and E. T. Lamb,
receivers for the road.
Before this action was taken
the tax collector endeavored by
correspondence to reach some
settlement with the road. but
claims to have received no reply
whatever to his communications.
The slot machines referred to in
! the warrant are filled with indi-
vidual drinking cups, and are
sold for cent apiece. Other
roads entering the city have the
cups in the cars for free distri-
button.
Mr.. Strickland contends that
the road is liable for the license
and he proposes to use efforts to
get the money. He first thought
of attaching some of the roads
property but consulted an at
torney and decided that the way
to handle the case was to issue
the warrants. Sheriff Pittman
was given the warrants and told
to send them to Atlanta to be
served.
If the road is liable in Ware
for the slot machine license
charged by the stand, every coun-
ty in Georgia through which the
road operates trains having the
slot machines will be entitled to
collect the license too. The out
come of the matter will h. await
ed with considerable interest.

oRs IMPORTATION OF ARMS
As A SOLUTION.

Hopstc2, Tex, Nov. TIN my opin-
ion the United States should lift the
embargo on the sale o. war supplies to
the Mexican rebels, as the best solu-
ton to tie question:" said Congress
man at Large Daniel E. Garrett last
night. Congressman Garrett has Just
arrived in Houston for a vacation from
his duties at Washington and will be
here several days.
II do NO. think the United States
should land soldiers in Mexico. for 1t
would result in long guerrilla war
fare that would cost more than the
whole country is worth. Since the an
nouncement by the president at Mo-
bile that the United States will not
take any more land as indemnity we
could have no way to pay the cost Of
such war except by taxation"
Concerning the currency measure
now before the Senate Congressman
Garrett is not hopeful Of its final pas
sage before the regular session. He
said he was sure the house would not
be willing to let I. become a law II
the senate made any fundamental
changes in it. Mr.. Carrot is opposed
to the four regional reserve banks and
favors twelve instead.
"If there were only four banks" he
said. ut is almost assured that Texas
would not get one of them"
