Augusta Plans
To Cut Costs
Paid Solicitor
Bill Will Be Introduced in Next
Legislature to Have InsolVent
Case Fees Abolished.

AUGUSTA. June IA long step
forward was taken, according to re-
formers. toward cutting down the
expenses of the courts of Richmond
County in the filing yesterday of a
notice of a bill to be introduced in the
next Legislature abolishing the sys-
TEN of paying insolvent costs to the
Solicitor General and the Solicitor of
the City Court.
The two Solicitors have been get
ting rich harvests for many years
from the insolvent cost fees and the
bill is aimed at cutting down their
compensation considerably. The re-
cent Grand Jury recommended that
the Solicitor Of the City Court be
placed on a salary of $4,000 per year.
Notice has also been filed that a
bill will be introduced taking the
power of levying taxes from the
Board of Education. At present the
board can levy any school tax that it
sees fit and there is no one to pre-
vent it.
1t is understood that an effort will
be made to put the Board Of Educa-
ton on a commission basis and that
President James l.. Fleming, Of the
board, is in favor of that plan.

been called for June %, and the local
followers of this method of govern

The election will be by the white pri-

that method. There will be no chance
TO have an open ballot in the gen

Mayor recalled after serving only a
short time as Mayor, and the anti
Hayne people are determined to re

That is the situation exactly. and

TAFT'S FRIEND
HAS HARD FIGHT
To KEEP OFFICE
Murphy Attacked in Augusta on
Ground He Voted for Man
Who Appointed Him,

AUGUSTA. June while much
talk has been going the rounds over
Georgia m regard to the appointments
Of Democratic postmasters in various
cities and towns, little has been said
Of the Augusta situation However,
there has been no lack of activity
here and no dearth of candidates.
Thomas D. Murphy a well-known
newspaper man TO whom former Pres
ldent Taft took such a strong liking,
is the incumbent. His term will ex-
pire in July 1914, and by common
consent he will be allowed to serve
out his term. He is also candidate
for reelection on the grounds that
he is a Democrat.
Murphy Voted For Taft.
Mr.. Murphy voted for Mr. Taft i'm
the last election because he was
grateful TO him for giving him the
appointment and Murphy has always
said that he was not a Republican
but a Taft man. When Murphy was
named as the Augusta postmaster
President Taft disregarded the wishes
of the entire Republican organization
of the tenth congressional district.

MAY LOWER RATE
ON MAIL MATTER
NUMEROUS BILLS HAVING THAT
ACTION As OBJECT TO COME
UP BEFORE CONGRESS.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 26.-One
cent postage promises to be one of the
live issues to be fought out In the
regular session of congress-. A dozen
bills have been introduced and 1t Is
said about half Of these provide for
penny postage outright. 1t is pointed
out by members interested In the gen.
eral subject that the probable large
increase in the parcel post revenue
would make penny postage a possi'
bility without seriously hampering the
financial affairs Of the postal service.
Others contend, that the parcel post
service should be given further oppor'
tunity to demonstrate its earning ca
pacity before a possible large revenue
loss to the department is incurred.
Senator Burton Of Ohio, has a mea'
sure that provides fol. a first class rate
OF one cent pei. ounce. Several other
bills establish the one cent rate when
delivery is to be made within the
limits Of the postoffice where the mat
ter was mailed. t

tion Of thrift and for the best narra-
tive Of an individual instance Of
thrift

fairs in such a manner that the value
of ones possession is being constantly
increased"

STRIKERS PICKET
ELECTRIC PLANT
VERBAL CLASHES Between THE
UNIONlZED AND UNORGAN-
IzED WORKERS OCCUR.

Schenectady, N. Y, Nov. 26.-Two
thousand union pickets were thrown
around the plant Of the General Elec-
trio Co., today to appeal with non
union workers to join them in the gen.
eral walkout which began yesterday.
There was no violence, but the union
workers pleaded and argued with
those who are remaining with the
company and in a few cases, the un-
organized workingmen were assailed
by shouts Of "scab" and unfair .
No conferences were scheduled for
today between the strikers and COM
pany officials. General Manager Geo.
E. Emmons said so far as he knew
there were no developments in the sit
uation. Asked if he would reinstate
any strikers who desired their old posi-
tions, he replied: II will take no
technical advantage Of the situation
A mass meeting or union workers
was held in the Peoples church. Mrs,
Ella Reeves Bloor, who has charge OF
the women strikers, has organized a
strike fund committee and already is
soliciting assistance for the idle work
ers and their families.
Strikers and their sympathizers
gathered in small groups about the
streets. There was practically no dis
order, the city assuming for the most
part holiday appearance.
Mayor Lunn said today that If dis
order occurred in any section Of the
city he would Immediately order the
saloons closed.

record prices for eggs have stirred
members of congress into action. They
have decided not to await the result
of the investigation by the department
of Justice into the cold storage bust
ness to see II It has any connection
with the constantly mounting prices of
eggs and other foodstuff.
Several bills have been introduced
in the house which have for their OBJ
iect the regulation of the cold storage
business and others are being pre-,
pared. All Of them bear upon the
general subject Of restraint Of trade In
the monopolizing of atural products
