ELECTION OFFIcIALs GEr rAy.
Commissioners on Advice Of County
Attorney viii Pay Those whs
Served at Special Election.

There has been deal Of discussion
pro and con as to whether or not
the county could legally pay the Of
ficials who acted as judges at the
election here last August 9Th, when
five State initiated questions we're
submitted, end at which time, in this
cotinty, the courthouse and Jail bonds
were voted upon.
Through some slip the Legislature
repealed the laws that provided for
the payment OF officers serving at
such elections, and the attorney gen.
eral ruled that the counties could not
legally pay them, although almost ev-
cry county in the State save Bryan
County paid their officias.
Recently, however, the attorney gem
eral as well as the State examiner
and inspector, have admitted that the
officers should by all rights and JUS
tice receive their money, and at the
next Legislature ther will probably be
bill passed to provide for such mat
ters in the future.
At the advice Of the county attor-
ney the commissioners this week de-
cided to pay these accounts, and Henry
McCreary. clerk, was busy yesterday
preparing warrants to the sum of
$73O.55, which will pay evh-y election
officer in the SS boxes in this county.

That phase of the Atlanta spirit so
pronounced in baseball fans and that
causes them to root for the home
team as no other set of fans ever
rooted must be placed in the ice chest
Sundays.
Recorder Nash Broyles so decreed
Tuesday afternoon when he ruled that
the baseball parlors of Caller" r II,
King at Vladuet Way will not be
permitted to open Sundays. This is
the han in which Atlanta fans as
semble to witness the battle by in
nings flashed by telegraph when the
Crackers are scrapping in foreign
fields.
The baseball parlor is in the same
class as moving picture theaters, pen
ny arcades, and other such amuse-
ments, according to the Recorder.
King threw open his parlors for the
game last Sunday, and a test case
was promptly made against him.
Judge Broyles dismissed the case
on the agreement Of King to keep his
place closed on Sunday.

what departments Of the city govern
ment are most in need and how much
they need"
In these words Judge John $. Can
dIer. chairman Of the subcommittee

Judge Gamblers subcommittee will
suggest 10 the general committee the
amount Of bonds needed by the city
and recommend an equitable appor-

explained, there is no question about
the need Of more money than the tax

be provided except by bond issue.

sists only in ascertaininE how much

Judge Gambler believes the Legisla-
