of the tax laws and the examination Of
public accounts. He said that mis- ef-
forts to secure equalization in the as
sessment was hampered by the failure
of the equalization boards to do their
duty, thus causing gross inequalities
to exist. He advocated amending the
constitution so as to permit the leg
islature to devise such system Of tax
alton as it might deem best, and would
also have the tax levy fixed after the
appropriations are made Mr.. Jones
declared that tae majority of the rev.
enue for the support OF the State
should be derived from taxes on cor
porations, insurance companies, lie
aDse fees, in1eritances and income,
while lands and other property should
primarily bear local taxation. He
said he had saved by investigations

various counties, and also through his
investigations more than $4,000 had
been collected on official bonds and
voluntary refunds by officials He re-
ferred to his recommendations, calling

Railroad Commissioners.

George w Fairey, of Calhoun coun-
ty, presented his claims for the Office
of railroad commissioner. He said he
was no politician, but practical busi-
ness man running for practical posi-
ton. He stated that he was the only
candidate for the place from the lower
part o. the. State, and he thought he
ought to be elected. He said the rail-
road crossings were so that an auto
mobiEst had to run in low gear" in
order to get their machines across the
tracks, and he thought this was be-
cause the railroad commissioners were
from the upper part of the Stae and
never came into the southern section,
except when running for reelection
More and better railroad inspections
he promised and said he would be on
tie job and not make tie position a

ed such procedure and a warn argu-
ment ensued regarding the merits Of

ed to let the matter go owe until the

HERE'S A TIP FOR FLORIDA
GAME WARDENS

ATLANTA, Ca, Dec. IA well
trained setter dog who will "set"
quail even after they are dressed
and iced, is County Game Warden's s
plan to detect violations Of the law
in Fulton county. He proposes to
take his prize dog into the express
offices and go on hunt for game
shipped in violation of the law:
Then he will lead the dog to the ho-
tel store rooms and hunt for birds
on ice. Atlanta hotels have made a
practice Of serving quail on toast
despite the law which prevents the
sale Of game. The head waiter,
properly tipped. can always remem-

vide them with any friend. But the

the game will be called before the
