MUSIC ARRANGED
FOR BIC BANQUET
Chamber of Commerce Dinner
To Be Attended by About
One Thousand Guests.

Elaborate plans are being made for
the big Atlanta Chamber of Commerce
dinner in the arena of the Auditorium
next Tuesday evening. Musical mum
bers will constitute one of the most
prominent features of the program,
Through the courtesy of $. Russell
Bridges. of the Alkahest Lyceum sys-
TEN, the Chicago Ladies orchestra

tertainment Tuesday viii render some
of their best numbers during the re-
ception and the early part of the din
ner. This feature has been arranged
as a compliment to the Chamber of
Commerce by Mr.. Bridges and viii un-
questionably prove one of the most at
tractive portions of the program.
Band and Singers.
In addition arrangements have been
made for a band for the entire even
ing, and during the dinner songs will
be sung by the Weistersinger Male
quartette q well-known Atlanta or
ganization composed of William Maur-
er first tenor: Frank Cundell. second
tenor; Edward Werner. baritone. and
Richard Brusch. basso. The quartette
will sing songs ranging from the old
plantation melodies to dignifed hymns,
including two new Atlanta songs COM
posed by well-known Atlantans. All
of these songs will be printed on the
menu card for the members and guests
so that they may join in the chorus.
one of the numbers on the program
for the quartctte is sleep Kentucky

of the Chamber of Commerce MEM
bers
Thousand to Attend.
The dinner viii begin with a re
cepton at $50 o'clock, which will be
an interesting feature. Fifteen recep-
ton committees have been appointed
to look after the invited guests who
will number 500 or more. while there
will be as many more members of the
Chamber, making a total Of about
1000.
Everybody is expected to come in his
business suit. The dinner and recep-
ton will be entirely informal. and
members and guests will go directly to
the Auditorium from their Offices. and
should be there promptly at $50 D. m.
Apparently there is an impression
among a few Of the guests who have
been invited that this is subscrip-
ton dinner, and that there is charge
for the tickets. This is entirely in
error: those who are invited are ex.
pected to come as the Chambers
guests, and it is urged that they send
in early responses on the cards which
have been sent them so that it may be
known how many win attend.
Already some 800 responses have
been received, and every mail is bring
ing large numbers of them to Secre-
tary Cooper's desk. There is every in
dication that it is going to be one of
the most interesting and enjoyable oc-
casions Atlanta has known in some
time.

STATES RIGHTS" AGAIS.

The State Of California wants a
Law In that State that will prevent
japanese and other foreigners from
buying up land and eventually con-
trolling their State. President VIII
son doesn't want California 10 ex-
ercise her prerogatives in this mat
ter and sent Mr.. Bryan to Cali
fornia last week to try to persuade
the Legislature OF that State to keep
such a law of their statute books.
The News and Observer, which pa
per has been hollering for State
Rights" for many years. nov comes
out with the following editorial:
Roosevelt declared that Hiram
Johnson, Governor of California.
would be a fine article as President
Of the United States. The alien land
bill trouble in California, however,
confirms the idea Of the people that
Hiram is fire brand"
What a change, The News and
Observer has beat the chameleon to
It this time. Governor Johnson Is
"a fire brand" because he wants
his State TO exercise her rights.

THE INFAMOUS FREIGHT RATE
ABUSE.

Everybody knows that for years
the railroads in this State have dis
eliminated most outrageously against
the people and the industries Of this
Commonwealth, from one end to an
other.
The freight rates which the rail-
roads charge in Virginia, South Car
olina. Tennessee, and other adjoin-
ing States, are certainly high enough,
yet the railroads have charged high
or rates In North Carolina than any
Of these States, and to such an ex-
tent that 1t has been charged by hum
dreds of intelligent men, from the
Chief Justice down, that such dis
crimination amounted to from twelve
to fifteen million dollars robbery
year.
During all of these years OF such
outrageous discrimination there has
been no serious or intelligent effort
made by the State Railroad Commits
sion of North Carolina, or by the
Governor, to correct these abuses.
The protests from merchant, man
ufacturers and from the people gen
orally grew SO large while the last
Legislature was in session that that
body felt called upon to appoint
Commission to negotiate with the
railroads to try to get some RELIEF.
The railroads have just spurned the
appeals of the Governor and the
Commission, appointed by the Leg
islature, by refusing to offer any
material reductions. The Governor
of the State has just issued a state
ment expressing his surprise and dis
appointment at the action of the rail-
roads. A number of the Democratic
newspapers Of the State have ex-
pressed surprise and disappointment.
1t may be that the Governor and
these newspapers have just walked
up to the fact that Senator Simmons
mortgaged the State, a number Of
years ago, to the railroads and the
trusts in North Carolina.
The terms of the mortgage pro-
vides that we shall be robbed and
Disseminated against to the COM
plete pleasure of the railroads and
trusts and that as long as the Demo-
cratic party is in power they should
not be disturbed in their robbery.
In this connection it should be re-
membered that Governor Craig was
Senator Simmons candidate for Gov
ernor, and therefore, it would be we'll
to look with some suspicion upon his
present declaration of Indignation
against the railroads.

Senator Randsall, Democrat of
Louisiana, has come out in open OPP
position to free sugar, and warns
his associates that such a schedule
in the tariff bill will defeat the Dem
ocratic party.
The Democrats are for free trade
for the other fellow-but you will
find that the Democratic Senators
are always ready to ask for protec-
ton on articles produced in their
State. Louisiana furnishes the
wherewith to make sugar, therefore
Senator Randsa1l wants protection
on sugar. Florida has fruits and
wants protection on citrus fruits,
and so on with nearly every State.
So it would seem that it is only
selfishness that keeps the Demo
cratic party from a general protec-
tive tariff bill, They want protec-
ton for themselves and their house
hold but don't want the other fellow
to have it.

SAYS the Durham Herald:

But if we had tariff board COM
posed of Republicans it would be-
lieve in protection and if it was COM
posed Of Democrats it might be-
lieve the same way"
Guess the Herald is right about it,
and that is probably why the Demo
Gratis do not want any tariff board.
1t is possible that even Democratic
tariff board might delve into the
tariff question and find out that this
country needs protection. It seems
that they prefer going az the ques-
ton blind-folded.

Certain Democratic Senators are
now busy investigating the civil SER

investigation is to see if the civil
service rules have been properly en-
forced. But wait and see if the
real object of the investigation isn't
to throw every Republican out of

WHY NOT ALL REVENUE BY IN
COME TAN?

The Democrats nave always de-
clared that the income tax is the fair
est tax in the world, and on the
other hand, they have, always de-
clared that the tariff was the most
vicious tax. Indeed, they have de-
clared that tariff protection was rob-
berry and unconstitutional. Now
since the Democrats have an oppor-
tunity to pass an income tax law, to
be consistent, they should raise all
of the revenue from the income tax
and abolish all revenue tariff taxes
of every kind
AS unwise as we think such a
course would be, a little more I'M
wise, indeed, than the present Dem
ocratic tariff bill, yet, since the Dem
ocrats have accidentally gotten the
power, why should not they have the
courage of their ignorant platitude?

DECATUR READY TO QUIT.

How Decatur can have a Three Eye
baseball club next year is more than
| can see," said prominent official of
the Decatur team Saturday The
main reason is that the club is head
over heels in debt already and it will
be pretty hard to find anyone who will
want to assume any of the obligations
and go ahead with the proposition.
Because of the successful sale of
Pitcher Schupp, last years debts were
reduced to about $4,000. According to
my figures, we will be exceedingly for
tunate if we get through without los
ing more than $4,000. The cash re-
ceipts, both at home and abroad, were
smaller this year than any other year
in history, believe. And don't think
that the total attendance this season
will go over 10000.
1T is easy to see then that the club
will begin next season with an exceed.
ingly heavy debt. If there is an angel
who will assume these obligations he
has not yet revealed himself DE

Chicago, Aug. 26.-Swell fielding,
combined with the nerve of Rebel
Russell, was sufficient to down Grit
fith's senatorial band in the second
game of the series at Commy's arena
yesterday. For once in their lives,
Callahan's men set out and picked up
few runs for the big Texas southpaw,
hence he had no trouble in winning,
even though decidedly shy on his GUS
tomary stuff. The score was to 2.
Being peeved over the fluky loss of
game the day previous, the sox went
out and put the skids under the Wash
ington fellows in hurry. They staged
so much unexpected offensive work
that Bob Groom was beaten before he
was started Berger handed him a
sickening blow by showing homer to
the scoreboard in center in the fir-:
round and before he recovered from
the shock two more went over. The
last were perpetrated in the second
round, after which Groom survived I'M

SENT TO BUSHES

of another veteran player from major
league baseball was recorded yester-
day when President James Gaffney of
the Boston Nationals announced that

been released to Rochester of the In
ternational league.
Devil was one of the old New York
National league stars. His work helped
the Giants win several league cham
pionships and one worlds champion.
ship-that in 1905. Since Devlin came
to the local National league club in the
spring of 1912, his fielding has been
up to his former average, but in bat.
ting and base running he has fallen of
to such an extent this season that he
has been used only as substitute.
Devlin's last game In the big league
had something OF the dramatic about
ii. Coming TO the bat as pinch hitte:
in the ninth inning of yesterdays game
against Pittsburg, he drove in the run
which tied the score for Boston, with
a we'll placed hit to right field. He did
not know at that time that ne was to
be released after the game.

St Louis, Aug. 26.-The latest base
ball rumor in St. Louis is that George
StovalI is to be asked TO quit as man
ager of the Browns. and that Roger
Bresnahan is to be invited to take his
place. Until just recently the dope
seemed to be that Branch RickeZ
would succeed Stovall when the latter
gentleman stepped out. Now they say
President Hedges plans soon to retire
and that the former Michigan coach
will be made president Of the Browns
With Bresnahan managing the local
American leaguers, there seems little
doubt but that they would make a
better showing.
Bresnahan is immensely popular in
st. Louis, where he took hold of the
Cardinals and made them a factor in
the pennant race of Ill. His failure
in 1912 was due. largely to interfer.
ence. He would draw at the gate and
being wise baseball man might sue
coed where Stovall has failed in boost
ing the Browns.
AS a matter of fact, Stovall can
hardly be counted a failure. as he has
not had time to rebuild such a deplor.
able aggregation as are the Browns.
For the latter half of the season he
has been hampered in his authority
/ by constant rumors of his retirement
and these have been denied in half
hearted way.
But Bresnahan would bring with
him prestige as well as ability, and
some ready-made popularity besides
He is in the National league, of course
but unless Murphy wants to retain him
| as manager of the Cubs-a thing now
! hardly likely-the Cub boss has little
use for him. No other team in the
/ National stands in much need of him
/ as his days as an active catcher are
practically over and he can be used
merely as a manager. Every head in
! the older league is fairly safe this sea
! son, and getting waivers on Bresnahar
| to sell him to st. Louis should not be
difficult.
