CITIZENS F|GH 7
FOR SPRING ST.
EXTENSION

Citizens interested in the project to
improve Spring street have issued a
formal protest against the caucus plan
of Councilmen to kill the project for
the time being by taking away the
$4,000 appropriated to begin, and they
assert that they are organizing for a
stubborn resistance.
The communication is especially in
teresting because of the last para :
graph, which warns the Aldermen
who held up the project by refusing
to adopt the new budgert. The para
graph is:
The citizens Of the wards through
which the street passes are not at all
pleased to learn that their Aldermen
did not vote in favor of this work, but
they still have hopes of the Aldermen
withdrawing their opposition"
Mayor Woodward and Chairman w.
G. Humphrey, of the Finance Commit
tee, are growing more and more hope
full that the budget, as originally pro-
posed, which includes the Spring
street appropriation, will be adopted
Monday. But the fight is still bitter.
Replying to Alderman John S. Can
dler's opposition TO the budget, and
particularly to the Spring street prof.
ect, on the floor of Council when he
said, IF these men want streets i'm
proved so they can sell lots, let them
pay for the work out of their own
pockets Mayor Woodward replied:
II warned the people before the
election last fall of the danger of a
combine between three Aldermen II
John S. Owens and Albert Thomson
were elected These three are so close
ly allied with one institution that thew
could not help being drawn together
by mutual sympathies."

Gambler, OF the Georgia State Com
mission, month or more ago. The
tender was made through the chair
man of the Interstate Commission,
who knows Mr.. Gambler well and is
thoroughly familiar with his work in
this State.
Mr.. Gambler, while approaching
heartily the compliment implied in
the offer, could not see his way clear
to accept it. He is deeply inter-
ested in his present work in Geor-
gia, and so completely is the public
apparently satisfied with that work
that not the remotest whisper of OPP
position to Mr.. Gambler is heard from
any quarter.
main at the head Of the Georgia Com
mission so long as 1t pleases him so
to do, so far as the consent of the
voters is concerned.
Former Speaker of the House of
Representatives of Utah, William
Roylance, passing through Georgia a
day or so ago, called upon the Gov
ernor of this State, as a matter of
courtesy and respect. While chat
ting with the Georgia Executive, Mr..
Roylance remarked that the hand
some new Capitol of Utah, in Salt
Lake City. not far from completed,
is profusely decorated with Georgia
marble-and, incidentally, the Utah
statesman expressed his surprise that
the Georgia Capitol has not one block
of Georgia marble or granite in its
make up, but is built almost entirely
of New Hampshire stone!
The hest Governor C1atop GOULD do
was to assure the Utah gentleman
that 1T never would happen again" IL
he could help it-and that 1t likely
wouldn't have happened in the first
place" except for the fact that the
Georgia Capitol was constructed some
80 years ago, and at that time Geor-
Ola didn't realize in any apprecia BILE
degree the extent or value of its mar
BILE quarries.
Representative o. T. Cover of
Crisp, will be a candidate to succeed
himself in the Georgia Legislature,
and he is to have no opposition. 1t
will be generally agreed that he ought
not to have, for If any Representa-
tive has made good on his job, Cover
surely has.
The gentleman from Crisp is the
father of the present excellent insur-
ance law, which he fought to enact
ment over all sorts of difficulties and
embarrassments, and besides that, he
took a prominent part in formulating
much of the constructive legislation
of the last session, particularly in the
matter of the new tax equalization
law.
Cover, of Crisp, is looked upon as
one of the genuinely strong and de-
pendable men in the present Legisla-
ture. He is modest and not at all
spectacular, but he is safe and sane,
and seems generally to land on the
right side of things!
