divides his time between that county
and Savannah, says it is his purpose
to introduce a measure legalizing the
Australian ballot system when the leg
islature meets in the summer.
1t is Mr.. Slater's idea that the Aus
tralian plan should be made applicable
generally over the state for state, coun-
t. and city elections.
Under the Australian scheme it is
possible to bargain for votes as under
the present system. but the purchaser
can have no assurance that the seller
keeps faith, as the ballot is prepared by
the voter in secret and there is no Ger
tain way of checking on the voter aft
erward.
Mr.. Slater, who was in Savannah on
election day, says he hopes never to
witness again some of the things he saw
on that occasion. He makes no charges,
however. against any faction or any
individual.
The purchase of votes has become
so common" he says. that it is time
for all patriotic people to lend their in
huence in a movement to put stop to
the pernicious practice. An office
bought has to be sold again in order
that the purchaser may get his money
out of the Office
The governor of Georgia has 42
boards of trustees of one sort and an
other to appoint. either in whole or in
part, every year
The average membership is about ten
which makes a grand total OF 4S0
trustees under his jurisdiction. The
governor is, eX-off1cio. a member OF
these various boards. moreover.
Besides these appointments. which
are almost exclusively posts of honor
and trust, with little, if any, compensa
ton attaching thereto, the governor is
called upon every year to name some
thing like 1000 delegates to conven-
outside.
The appointments carrying regular
salaries-such as judgeships and the
like-coming within the authority of
the governor are limited in number
and, save for the purpose of filing oc-
casional vacancies, the executive rarely
is called upon to name men for Office OF
his own exclusive motion.
Judge Augustus w. Fite's ambition
to be attorney general Of Porto Rice
under President Wilson seems to be
going unchallenged in Georgia, and il
that particular plum is to be awarded
Georgia it looks as if Judge Fite will
be the sole applicant for executive con-
sideratiOn.
Just what it is about the attorney
generalship OF Porto Rico that has en-
gagged the distinguished attention OF
Judge F'ite to the extent of rendering
him willing to forsake the Cherokee
circuit, is more or less of a secret, but

Actress Tells Secret
A Well Known Actress Tells
How She Darkened Her Gray
Hair and Promoted It's
Growth With a Simple
Home Made Mixture

Miss Blanche Rose, a well known
actress, who darkened her gray hair
with a simple preparation which she
mixed at home, in a recent interview
at Chicago, H., made the following
statement: ANY lady or gentle
man can darken their gray hair and
make it soft and glossy with this
simple recipe, which they can mix
at home To a half-pint of water
add l OF. of bay rum, a small box
Of Barbo Compound, and IA oz. of
glycerine. These ingredients can be
bought at any drug store at very lit
tie cost Apply to the hair twice
week until it becomes the required
shade. This will make a gray haired
person look 20 years younger. 1t is
also fine to promote the growth of
hair, relieves itching and scalp hu-
mors, and is excellent for dandruff
and falling hair"

SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
BY JAMES B. NEVIN.

Il may be stated that Governor

court Judgeship to Honorable Moses
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-01-24

Inc governor. almost from the very
moment Judge Maddox's resignation
reached him, began turning over in his
mind the fitness of Moses Wright for
the vacancy.
| Judge Wrights previous record on
the bench of the Rome circuit COM
mended him very much to the govern
or's consideration. Supreme court
justices. lawyers practicing at the
Rome bar, citizens from all over the
state, had told the governor of Wright's
| fine record on the bench. Judicially,
the man fit the situation to a nicely.
He always had been the governors firm
| friend politically.
The more the other aspirants for the
| judgeship bombarded the governor with
their petitions and friends the more his
mind kept turning to Moses Wright.
| Finally, when line-ups of Hutchens,
Denny and Shropshire got the situation
so badly 'balled up" that the governor
decided to cut the Gordian knot by go
| ing over all of them, and. selecting the
man he believes peculiarly suited to the
| place-hence Moses Wright.
If Judge Wright feels that he can ac-
cept-and he is more or less embar-
raised by the fact thta he and Colonel
Denny are law partners-it is sure that
the appointment will be satisfactory to
| the circuit.
And if Moses Wright does go back
onto the superior court bench, it is only
question Of time until he undoubtedly
Will be promoted to the supreme court
His best work has been done on the
bench, and temperamentally he makes
an ideal judge.
The tender of the Judgeship came as
complete surprise to Judge Wright
He had no idea the governor was con-
sidering him at all in the Rome judge

WELFARE LEAGUE PUTS
LID" ON IN WINSTED

Winsted, Jan 27-The lid was put
on in Winsted Sunday and confection-
airy, fruit, clothing and grocery stores,
many of which have been in the habit
of keeping open Sundays, were closed
Winchester Welfare League. The
close up notices were sent out Fri
day by Prosecuting Attorney BIodgett,
who threatened arrest if the orderSWas
not Obeyed. Some of the candy and
fruit store proprietors consulted law
yers, with the idea of fighting the or
der, but the plan was given up and
the order was generally obeyed.
Some of the storekeepers who were
force to- close were disappointed that
the order was not more sweeping, so
that it might prevent the sale of to-
bacco in drug stores and stop the sale
of newspapers. Prosecuting Attorney
I3Iodgett ruled, however, that the sale
Of newspapers and tobacco was not
violation of the law.

And then imagine what belt is up
against. It must be dependable day
after day. The season may be dry
or wet, the atmosphere saturated or
dried out by the close proximity to a
boiler or other heating apparatus, but
the belt must go Ola doing it's duty or
the machines cannot run and the
'shovels and locomotives cannot be re-
paired. Then, too there is oil around
the machinery to contend with, all of
which makes the conditions especially
trying.
Ordinary betting stretches with the
moisture, contracts when it dries out
a bit, opens at the laps and has To
be cut constantly to keep the length SO
it will pull the machine. Two or
three ply betting is very apt to part
company and be of little value as a
driver of machinery of any kind.
And while betting may seem like a
small item in the building of the great
canal, it is not difficult to imagine the
long delay and the increased expense
if the shove1s and locomotives had
been compelled to lie idle day after
day while ordinary betting was Civ
ing out, making it impossible to run
the machines.

OILED STREETS SURE
TO BE MUDDY
Decision of Connecticut Road Of
f9da1s.

A monthly meeting of the Associa-
ton Of Connecticut Road Officials was
held yesterday afternoon. The sub
ject was Dust Suppression and BIZ
luminous Binders" but many other
topics came UP. The most timely of
these was an Informal discussion on
the cause of the mud that has appear
ed in city streets SO heavily this win
ter. The engineers were united In at
trfbuting the mud to the use of oil in
members took this opportunity to
criticise oil treatments in all their as
poets and City Engineer Frederick L
Ford Of New Haven even went SO far
as to say that the oiling of city streets
was merely g. fad.
City Engineer A H Terry of Bridge
port opened the discussion on the topic
of the afternoon. He compared the
cost Of dust suppression In different
places in the State. He found that
Greenwich, New Haven. Hartford and
Bridgeport paid least, in the order
given. In Bridgeport, as in Hartford,
quite little oil was left on the streets
at the end of the season. New Haven
used less oil to an application than any
other city, and Hartford used good
deal.
The subject of muddy streets was in
troduced, and an informal discussion
of the cause of mud in winter on city
streets showed that the men were
unanimous in attributing it to the use
OF oil IN sumner. which makes the
that. the heavier the oil that is used,
the heavier the mud formed
City Engineer f. L. Ford hoped the
time was near when the oiling of
streets would be discontinued, as he
thought the practice a fad and believ-
ed that, in addition to causing heavy
mud in the winter, it tended to unbind
the roadway surfaces Part of the
trouble in the application of water, or
oil, came, he SAID, from unintelligent
work by the drivers of the water wag-

and other officials agreed with Mr.
Ford that oil was apt to be injurious,
but 1t was acknowledged after discus
sion, that the injury depended on the
quality and kind of oil used, as some
oils are actually binding, rather than
"unravelling'' in their effect.
