PEOPLE WILL VOTE ON
ADJUSTMENT OF FEES

Atlanta, Aug. 25.-With the signing
by Governor Harris of the bill to sub
nit to the voters of the state a consti-
tuional amendment authorizing the
general assembly to abolish the fees
of solicitors-general the people have
their first opportunity to voting on the
big question which has ben agitated
in the legislature for ten years
Sentiment appears to have crystalliz-
ed on the proposition that the payment
of fees to solicitors-generali is vicious
and demoralizing system which tends
to make the prosecuting officer vigi-
liant in prosecuting offenders who can
pay their fines and lessons their in
terest in the prosecution of more Sc
rious crimes where the prospect of
fines is not certain.

AhARsHAILTowN. FRIDAY NOVEMBER
KANSAS VOTE iLLEcALa.
Counsel to Investigate Omission Of
Elscters' Names From Ticket.

Electors Names From Ticket.
Topeka, Kas., Nov. 10.-Charles Fl.
Session, republican state chairman,
announced that legal counsel had been
engaged to investigate the constitu-
tionality~ Of the electoral vote in Kan
sas. He would not say whether or no.
the vote would be contested.
1t was claimed at republican head
quarters that the voters,cast their ball
|slots for the presidential candidates
rather than for electors. The vote for
electors this year was made for the
group instead of for individual elect
ors, as in the past. Republicans say
That this manner OF voting was uncon-
stitutional.
Before the ballots were prepared by
the secretary Of state Attorney General
that the electors could be voted for a.
a group instead Of individually.
The ballotsf were prepared in thia
manner and there was only one square
placed at the head OF the list Of elect
ors, thus making 1t impossible for the
voter to make an individual choice, II
was asserted.
In commenting on the electoral vote
in Kansas Hubert Lardner, democratic
state chairman, made the following
statement:
The ticket was prepared by secre-
tary Of State Botkin under. an opinion
by, Attorney General Brewtter that BY
voting in the square opposite each par
ty the voter would be showing his in
tention to vote for the ten electors
The ballot is legal The people voted
their intention and the secretary o1
state in Kansas has decided that the
voters intention must obtain in suoh
cases."

members Of the house Of representa-
H!ves and 211 republican members have
been elected, giving the democrats a
plurality Of four Two Of the missing
districts are normally democratic and
three normally republican. Their adj
