TO Jump That's the very fellow |

game last season this fellow Walker
hit me three times. and there wasn't
the difference of two inches in the

Every time Walker hit me in the

Judge Speer's lawyers and friends
are confident that the first days prob
ing did not hurt him.
John r. l.. Smith, one of Macon S

Speer's mentality was now impaired,
He also declared that the court has
lost the confidence of the people, and
he attributed it to the Judges high

methods, somewhat untrammeled by
law and to his showing Of fayors TO

strong antipathy to others, which IKE

Mr. Smith swore that in the trial
of a criminal case in 1912 Judge
speer practically ran the District
Attorney, Alexander Alderman, out oil

ing TO belittle him in the presence
of the jury" He said there was per-
sonal animus between the Judge and

Judge Speer generally took sides

be closed. These clubs are struggling
to retain their licenses and several
applications for new clubs will be
presented.

PAYMENT On
FIRE ALARM
To Be GUT
Gambler Leads Movement to Give
Company $4,000 Instead of
$85,000-Caucus Soon.

With the new city budget made
public, a fight by Councilmen was de-
termined upon Tuesday against the
item Offering sS5, 1000 to the Okonite
Company, of New York, for the new
fire alarm system.
Some members Of Council would
appropriate all this money but $1,000
for other purposes. Alderman John
8. Gambler expressed his opinion of
the item to a number of members Of
the Finance Committee following the
afternoon in this wise:
you can't put anything like that
over. There is nothing but politics
back of II.
Eve have a good contract with the
Okonite Company to rent that sys-
tenn for one year for $1,000 If at
the end of that time we want to buy
1t, we can.
TT Is absurd to try to buy a Gre
matory and a fire alarm system in
one year. We can't do It. Instead
of $4,000, the Council will give you
IS 1000"
Councilman Claude c. Mason, AL
derman Albert Thomson and q num-
Der of others agred with Alderman
Gamblers views on the fire alarm
contract.
Councilman Mason said the atti-
tude OF the Mayor had prevented the
extension of any alarm to his section,
the Tenth Ward, and other outlying
districts
A caucus is agreed upon by ma
jority of the members of Council who
are not members of the Finance
Committee.
Await Copies Of Budget.
They will met as soon as City
Clerk Taylor furnishes copies of the
budget.
1t Is doubtful II the opposition to
the budget can muster a majority in
Council, but 1t Is reported that five
members of the Aldermanic Board
have agreed to hold 1t up until it is
amended as the caucus decides.
Another action of the Finance
Committee to arouse particular oppo-
sition was the adjustment Of the Jobs
of Sidewalk Inspectors D'Alvigny and
Dozier, of the Construction Depart
ment. Their salaries were 81 200 each,
Friends of these men in Council de-
clared Tuesday they would be re-
lnstated.
Some of the Improvements left out
that will be insisted upon will be a
nurses dormitory at the Grady Hos
of Whitehall street and intersecting
streets.
Residents OF the West Side have
called an indignation meeting for
| Tuesday night at 5 o'clock in the
| Jones Avenue Baptist Church to pro-
| test against the neglect of the Davis
Street School by the Finance Com
| mittee, They urge that the present
building is a disgrace to the city.
Money Will Not Go Around.
Additional improvements are want
ed in every section, but there is not
| nearly enough money for them all. l;
is not likely that any other appro-
priation besides the $4,000 for the
fire alarm contract will be recalled.
In contrast to the attitude of the
| Councilmen is the complacency OF
the heads of departments. Alderman
Jesse Armistead introduced a resolu-
ton Monday to make the increase ir
the pay of teachers effective at once
| instead Of September 1. 1t was re-

Macon Liquor Foes
Hit by High Court;
Club Fine Reversed

The State Court OF Appeals Tues
day handed down a decision revers-
ing the City Court Of Macon, which
had convicted C. r. Wright, secretary
of the Elks' Club of that city, and
fined him $3.50 for violation of the
liquor laws.
The decision Is of the utmost i'm
portance to those engaged in the Bit
ter fight for prohibition in Macon and
Is expected to prove rather a severe
blow to the Anti Saloon League in
it's prosecution Of individual club Of
ficers.
The Court of Appeals holds that
while the Elks' Club did actually vio-
late the prohibition laws, Wright, as
secretary. could not be held respon-
sible. 1t was not proved, said the
court that Wright had anything to
do with the actual sale Of liquor, his
duties being to care for the corre-
spondence Of the organization.
