in the Fifth district against William
Schley Howard, led the fight to place
the bill on the special and continuing
order. and he got the necessary three
fourths vote of the house. There was
much sharp debate. Members oppos-
eG to bringing up the bill declared the
state has no right to interfere in the
religious activity of any church
whether Protestant, Catholic or Jew,
and they reminded Representative
Blackburn that separation of church
and state" has always been his shib,
boleth. The vote on making the bill a
special order makes it certain that the
bill will pass the house when it comes
to vote.
Another significant feature of the
special order fixed by the house is that
practically it ends all prospect of the
Savannah recall bill coming to vote
in the house and also sidetracks the
tax repeal bill for the present session
so far as the house is concerned

SENATE To SAVE TIL
HIGHWAY COMMISSION

ATLANTA, Ga, July 28.-The senate
will probably throw into the waste bas-
ket the so-called highway commission
bill passed by the house of representa-
or Tuesday, and pass a bill that pro-
vides for a real commission, which
can secure real and substantial re-
suits.
Newspapers over the state have de-
neunced the highway commission bill
which passed the house, it is claimed,
as a joke and burlesque. The bill
merely confers upon the prison com
mission the title of Highway Depart
pent," and assents to the act of con-
gress appropriating a fund for aiding
the states in building public roads.
Beyond this the bill does nothing. II
gives the so-called highway depart
ment no authority, no appropriation,
10 convict gang, no highway engineer,
no clerical help.
Members of the house and the pris-
on commission, stung by the widely
published charge that politics prevent
lea the passage of a genuine highway
commission bill in the house, were ex-
.remely busy getting from under when
they realized yesterday what an I'M
favorable impression the house bill had
created.

HOUSE HAS 4 BUSY
TINE AHEAD ON TAP

ATLANTA, Ca. July 2S.-Beginning
today with the compulsory education
bill, the house of representatives takes
up special and continuing order Ct
bills that will probably keep it busy
for most of the remainder of the SEES
sion.
After this will come the bill provid-
ing for special registration for county
bond elections, and then the following
bills in the order named:
A bill to make more severe the pea
atty for usury; bill authorizing coun-
ties at their option to furnish free
text books for schools; a bill abolish
ing fees of solicitors general; a bill!
providing for state inspection of elee-
mosynary, charitable and religious in
situations.
Being a special and continuing or
der, these bills have the right of way
in the house until they are disposed
OF, and no other general bills will be
taken up ahead of them.
The setting of this order was 5igni-
ficant in more ways than one.
In the first place. the bill providing
for state inspection of eleemosynary
charitable and religious institutions is
frankly aimed at institutions of the
Roman Catholic church. 1t was intro.
duced in the house last year by Repre-.
sentative Weary, Of Warren county, a
strong admirer of Tom Watson, and
one of the Thomson EDITORS enthusiast
tic followers.

SWIMMING PARTY
DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR.

The swimming party, at which Miss
Matte Beulah McMath entertained in
honor of Miss Josie Belle Johnson, was
enc of the most delightful of the many
similar affairs at Myrtle Springs this
summer. The afternoon was pleasant

Of the springs, and dancing was en-
joyed later in the evening. A bounte-
Gus lunch was spread at six o'clock.
About thirty of the college set were in
yjted to meet Miss Johnson.
Miss Sarah Clements arrived Thurs
day night from Eastman, and will be
Miss McMath's guest during the re-
mainder of the week. Many entertain
