THE JEFFERSONIAN

that aS chairman of this committee
[ do not recall single bill having
been reported out of this committee
with recommendation that Congress
allow more than $50 per month, and
but very few cases have come before
the committee where rate of $50
per month was given. This rate is
given in cases only where the evil
dence shows total and permanent
disability upon the part Of the soldier
or sailor. In the case of Robert Will
son, of HartWeU, a pension of $12
per month was granted in the 63rd
Congress, and in the case Of Joseph
w. Hill, of Danielsyille, a pension of
So per month was allowed ana the
bill signed by the President within
the last few days.
1t also gives me pleasure to state
that in connection with each Of these
bills after introducing same, you
promptly filed the evidence required
by the committee in such cases and
personally urged speedy considera-
ton Of each bill until finally disposed
of. Sincerely yours,
(Signed) JOHN A. KEY,
Chairman.
The above is in accordance with
the records of the Committee on PEN
sions.
(Signed) VIM. MCKINLEY COBB,
of Athens, Georgia.
I have previously answered this
erroneous record circulated by my op>
ponent and his statements in his
speeches repeating these charges and
I proved that nine of the first
eighteen bills mentioned by him as
not passed are now legislation on the
statute books. 1 admit there are
several bills introduced by me which
did not pass, but the fact that they
have failed up to the present time
will not prevent me from introducing
them again, [ am trying with all
my power to pass them.
[ will mention a few of these bills
set forth by my opponent as not
passed, to-Wit: Drainage of swamp
lands, Aid to cotton farmers (When
cotton was so low two years ago. j.,
Prohibit 1ntermarriage of white and
negro races, repeal civil service and
pension to Confederate soldiers out
of illegal tax collected on Southern
cotton just after the Civil War.
He is right in stating that these
bills did not pass, but shall not be
discouraged by his criticism and Win
attempt again to pass them.
Finally, I desire to conclude the
Civil Service issue by saying there
are probably one hundred thousand
negro government officers in the
United States and all secured their
office by examination, except few
executive appointments. There are
several hunderd negro government
officers in Georgia and every one Sc
cured the office by examination. They
are appointed tor life. The only way
to remove them is on charges. |
could not remove Bob Jones on
charges, but I did remove him from
my district, and the people along the
Georgia r. r, are rejoicing. / am
opposed to the law which prevents
Mr., Rucker, postmaster at Athens,
and other postmasters in the South
from giving the people white service.
/ did not say at Eatonton that my
predecessors did nothing in Congress
but L did say that they were able,
eminent, fearless and success mem
bers

tinues to insist upon the correctness
of the record he published stating
that over ninety of the bills intro
duced by me were not passed and
that only three insignificant bills
were passed. Space will not permit
me to take up many Of these bills.
A few local bills known to all men of
the District will be sufficient. It
Will be noted that he says the increase
of the public building at Elberton,
public buildings at Washington,
Eatonton, Monroe, and Madison, did
not pass. The Congressional Record
shows that my opponent misrepre-
sents the Record when he so alleges,
and while | am standing by the
Record, still all men do not see the
CongressiCl u Record; therefore, l
submit statements from the Chair
man of two Committees having this
local legislation in charge pertaining
to my district. This is the highest
evidence except the Record.
Mr. Clark, Chairman of the Build
ings Committee, writes me as fol-
lows:
August 81, 1916.
Hon. Samuel J. Tribble,
House of Representatives,
Washington, D. C.
My Dear Colleague:
1t has come to my notice that there
is being circulated in your district,
a pamphlet which alleges that certain
public building bills, introduced by
yourself, did not pass. [ want to cor
rect these statements and to say en-
phatically that the bills mentioned
DID pass, and the fact that they
passed was due absolutely to your
untiring efforts and the able manner
in which you presented the different
projects to the Committee Oh Public
Buildings and Grounds.
A list of these bills, showing
amounts authorized and date OF pas
sage is given herewith:
H. r. 1852 (62nd Congo increase
limit Of cost of building at Elberton,
Ga, became a law March 4, 1913,
amount authorized $4,000.
H. r. 1882 (62nd Cong.) for
building at Washington, Ga, became
a law March 4, 1913, amount au-
thorized $55,000
H. r. 1926 (63rd Cong) build
ing at Madison, Ca, site authorized
March 4, 1913, $1,000.
H. r. 10148 (63rd Cong.) build
ing for Monroe, Ca, site for $1,000
authorized March 4, 1913, item for
building $4,000 reported July 18th,
1916.

March 4, 1913, $4,000.
H. II. 7542 Cath Congo for pub
Tic building at Coyington, Ga, $4,000
for site reported July II, 1916.
Trusting that this statement may
serve to straighten out matters and
with best wishes, am
Very sincerely yourss,

Chairman.
Mr.. Key, Chairman of the Pension
Committee, writes me as follows:
August 81, 1916.
Hon Samuel J. Tribble,

Ny dear Mr. Tribble:
My attention has been invited to a
circular being circulated in your dis
arict seeking to injure your candi-
dacy for denomination to Congress,
in which dereliction is charged upon
your part in connection with certain
bills introduced by you in the House
of Representatives Among these [
noted that il Is stated that no action
was obtained by you in connection
with the bill to secure pension by
means of special act of Congress in
behalf of William p, Clark, Robert

Reassessment.

Considerable progress. has been
made in the reassessment of property
throughout the counties of the State
under the direction of the State Tax
Commission, and the expectation is
that with the exception of two or three
counties where difficulties have arisen
the work will be completed by spring.
The reassessment in some of the towns
has already been finished, although no
figures to show the tendency of the re
valuation have been announced.
1t is expected, however, that when
the totals are finally compiled they will
show a big increase over the previous
valuation in many of the counties, anO
that the result will be that the counties
will bear a larger percentage of the
EXPENSES of the State government than
heretofore.
From time to time there has beer
discussion as to the amount that the
CITY of Baltimore contributes to the
support of the State government with
out accurate figures being at hand.
An analysis of the figures presented
from the books of the Treasury Depart
ment shows the percentage of direc,
taxes paid by Baltimore city and by
the counties of the State as follows:
The city pays 54.67 per cent; the
counties pay 47.87 per cent.
Separating the personal and rea
property from the personal securities
the city pays So. Ii per cent; the coun
ties pay 4787 per cent.
On personal securities the city pay
"a. So per cent; the counties pay 1876
per cent.
Therefore. on the present basis of as
sessment, Baltimore city pays 81. CT pc
cent of the taxes, while the counties
pay 45. SO per cent.

Card Club.

One of the most delightful of the
meetings yet held by the Gard Clue
was that on Wednesday at the home OF
Mrs. John H. Traband. The guests
arrived at o'clock and after enjoying
the tempting refreshments of salads,
ice cream, cake and coffee, participated
in the usual games of five hundred.
The genial and accomplished hostess
made every one feel happy and wish
for many future meetings so replete
with enjoyment for all.
Those present were: Mrs. Traband'
Mrs. Griffith, Mrs. Mary E. Wilson,
Mrs. Gore, Mrs. McManus, Mrs. Nc
Nab, Mrs. F. Sasscer, Mrs. Russell,
Mrs. Ridgiey, Mrs. Lee Clagett, Mrs.
