For years almost without number
the Georgia Legislature has enjoyed
the reputation of being an assemblage
of dignifed and earnest men--bur-
dened with the cares Of state and
caring nothing for the frivolities Of
life. And Georgia politicians have
padded the same boat But now,
alas! They were exposed Monday
morning. and now are held up to
the rude gaze Of the proletariat as
very ordinary folks, and-here's the
climax they are FLIRTS,
Miss Lucille Viera says so, and she
knows more about legislators and
politicians not politics, mind you
than all the political experts in the
State of Georgia. Miss Viera, be it
known, is the handsome young wom-
an who presides over the cigar coun-
ter in that hotbed Of political tur-
moil-the Kimball House, where
measures and politicians are made
and unmade. During the summer
season, to quote Miss Viera. she is in
a position to make a close study OF
legislation and legislators. And she
does it, and here is her verdict:
Politicians and legislators are
more fiirtatious than travelling sales
men ever dared to be, and as for the
callow and loose-tongued college
youth-well, there never was a min
ute when the college boy was in it.

GREAT CAMP
Of PEACE
Forty Thousand Wearers Of Blue
and Gray Arrive for Mem
orabIe Reunion.

GETTYSBURG, PA, June S0.-As
If staging a reproduction of the
scenes of half a century ago, lines of
dusty men in blue and gray to-day
advanced upon the battlefield of Get
tysburg, going over the roads and
fields to take up their positions for
the fiftieth anniversary of Americas
greatest battle.
That same time which has brought
the great peace also has brought the
warriors face to face with another
and even more inexorable enemy, ad-
vancing age. Two men of the blue
have been summoned to the last roll
call sine coming to camp. Excite
ment and overeXertion taxed two
hearts beyond endurance, and two
more names were added to the long
roll.
A number Of minor accidents and
one which may end in death have
increased the casualty list which be-
gan almost with the arrival Of the
first big delegation of veterans.
Two Governors Arrive.
The first Of the notab les who are
to distinguish the reunion arrived to-
day.

heralded the arrival of Brigadier Gen
eral Hunter Liggett, detailed by the
War Department to be commander of
the encampment. Two hours later the
guns welcomed Governor Sulzer OF
New York, and Governor TeDer. of
Pennsylvania.
Twenty thousand veterans arrived
in camp during the day. 1t was an
nounced at headquarters to-day that
40, 900 were expected by night. The
brisk breezes sweeping down from the
mountains to-day brought cool
weather.
Eight Stricken BY Heat.
Up to date eight veterans, all Of
them Union soldiers, have been
stricken with heat. Two deaths have
occurred, both being caused by heart
failure, superinduced by the heat. The
dead:

VETO THREAT
To HASTEN
BUDGET
Governor Declares He Must Have
Appropriations Bill Ten Days
Before Adjournment,

Governor Slaton has sent word
down the line. and II is sure to be
accepted as final, that the Legislature
must bring out the general appro
priations bill at least ten days be-
fore final adjournment, or face the
prospect of an executive veto.
Governor Slaton is known TO have
some very positive and precise ideas
of what the general appropriation bill
should carry, and he is going to in
sist that the General Assembly toe
the mark in the matter of keeping
that bill we'll within the States in
come.
Heretofore the practice has been to
bring in the general appropriations
bill at the very last moment, leaving
the Executive to wrestle with it the
best he knew how within the FIVE
days allotted to him after adjourn.
ment, in which he may act upon all
legislative matters left over.
This year. however, the Governor
has determined that he shall have
that bill ten good days before ad-
tournament, in order that he may re-
turn it to the House and Senate, if
necessary, with such recommended
tions and changes as he may think
proper
Blame To Be Shared.

tive and Legislative Departments.
which, heretofore. 1t has not been.
Governor Slaton, who served six
teen years in the Legislature, knows
the methods of both Houses thor
oughIy. and he knows how the Gen
eral Assembly frequently has embar-
raised the Executive Department in
the matter of making impossible ap-
propriations.
Representative Crawford Wheatley,
who will be chairman Of the General
Appropriations Committee, has in
dorsed the move and pledges his sup
port.
The General Assembly will not be
able to transact much business until
the House and Senate committees are
named.

dent Anderson hope to get their com
mittees framed up for proclamation

Hundred Bills in Hopper.
Already more than a hundred bills
have been introduced, notwithstand-
ing the fact that there yet are no
committees to which they may be
referred
After the committees are named il
is likely that the Legislature will re-
main in session one day to give them
time to organize, and on Thursday
adjourn over the Fourth Of July until
the following Monday, at which time
the genuine work of the Legislature
will begin
If that program is adhered to, the
saving Of precious time at the
tail end Of the session will be ire
mendous and will save the life of
many a meritorious measure likely
otherwise to go down and out.
AS a rule, scores Of bills are smoth-
cred to death in the last few days
because of the crush of matter.
If the general appropriations bill is
sent in within ten days OF adjourn
ment, 1t will mean that the decks will
be pretty we'll cleared of everything
else by then.
incidentally this probably will
mean more afternoon and night ses-
sions than Is customary,
