WATER BOARD BILLS
ARE VETOED BY
GOV. DORSEY
Mayor and Councilman Are
Still Members Of The
Water Board.

Governor Dorsey found last week
that getting elected is just the be-
ginning of troubles for a Governor
when he encountered a couple of del
egations of Marietta citizens repre-
senting each side of a local bill. The
bill was to remove Mayor Brumby
and Councilman T. L. Wallace from
the Board of Lights and Waterworks
of the city, and each side was there
in force to argue for and against the
bill. 1t took about four days for the
Governor to get the situation clear
ly before him and then he vetoed the
bill or bills.
Bill or bills is right, for one had
been introduced in the house and one
in the Senate the same day. This
was done because the session was
nearly over and it was thought that
one might fail to pass. However the
clerk let both bills get by and go be-
fore the Governor. What would have
happened had he vetoed one and
signed the other without noticing it
would have taken a court or two
to determine, but the Governor found
them both and vetoed them both.
This leaves Mayor Brumby and
Councilman Wallace still members Of
the Water Board.
The Governor decided the bills had
not been advertised for the neces-
sary thirty days before introduced
and vetoed them.

MORE THAN MILLION
HAVE VOLUNTEERED

Since war was declared more than
one million men have volunteered
their services to the United States
to uphold the honor of their country.
1t has always been said that a million
volunteers could be raised in short
time in this country and the figures
just given out from Washington
prove this for a fact. 100000 is
the number reported to have offered
for the service, of which 356,859
were rejected as unfit.

PARTY HIKING TO
Fl. OGLETHORPE

Last Monday DR.. and Mrs. Rambo
arose at four o'clock in the morn
ing and prepared breakfast for Miss
Regina Rambo, Miss Marie Barnes,
of Fredericksburg, Va, and Mr.. Sam
D. Rambo, Jr., who were to start on
hike to Chattanooga, where Mr..
Sam Rambo will enter the training
camp at camp Oglethorpe. They
have been preparing themselves for
some time for this hike by hiking
comparatively short distances a.
round here and gradually making
them longer. The longest hike made
before starting for Chattanooga was
around Kennesaw Mountain. The
girls wore the regulation suits, con-
sisting of the pants, a long coat,
which closed in the back and front,
and regular army shoes and wool
hose. They carried with them a skirt
and several shirtwaists to wear if
the warm weather made the other
costume unbearable. An army tent
was purchased and they left Mari
eta with Mr.. Sam Rambo holding
one of the poles of the tent and the
two girls carrying the other pole.
They wrapped their provisions in the
tent and tied it with a rope. They
had in their supplies little clothing,
some cooking utensils, and a little
powder and powder rag. The first
night was spent in the tent at AL
toona Hill about one hundred yards
from a dwelling There they pre-
pared their own supper and slept
soundly, after the long tramp, and
Tuesday morning rolled their tent,
and started on toward Chattanooga
They expect to arrive in Chattanoo-
ga Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Rambo
will send suit case by express to
their hotel so as to reach there by
that time. And the hiking party
will be enabled to resume civilian
life for time.

ARMY MAY LOCATE AN
ARTILLERY RAN &c
At MARIETTA
Major Michel Well Pleased
With Various Sites He
Looked At Here.

The prospects for Marietta bene-
FLING from the location of the great
cantonment at Silver Lake, Atlanta,
crew brighter this week, than they
have since the military activity start
ed The government must have a
GOOD artillery range close to this en-
campment so that that branch of the
service can get some real expert
ence. A stretch of territory two
miles wide and seven or eight miles
long will be necessary and on this
must be suitable mountain or hill
for the location of the targets.
Major W. N. Michel who is inspect
ing the sites for the artillery ranges
for all the contonments was here this
week to pick out site for the range
for Camp Gordon. He was much
pleased with the several locations and
particularly pleased with the pros
poets for firing from the edge of
Marietta toward Blackjack Noun
tain.
The Marietta Chamber of Com
merce is working hard to secure OPP
tons on the land necessary before
the government will consider the
proposition and this should be an
easy thing to accomplish. The loca-
ton of the range will not hurt the
land. The owners will be given I'M
til December 1st to gather their crops
and the government will lease the
land for one year with option to
rent for five years. This will give
the land good rest and the govern
ment will pay more than the crops
would bring if it was cultivated.
The location of the range here will
keep more than one thousand men
right at the outskirts of the city and
nearly one thousand horses. 1t is
said by Major Michel that they will
spend more than $4,000 day in Ma
netta. This is too much to miss and
everybody should get behind this pro-
position and help put it through.

Marietta, Ga, Aug. %, 1917.

tice. His influence was always on the
side of right He was one OF the pion-

Gated on farm near Yatesville.
His son, John B. and family of this
place, attended the funeral yesterday.

there has been no concerted rush to
the new oil field.
News of the Irvine field spread. like
Ink in a blotter, in all directions soon
after II was determined the find" was
real. Then the oil operators began to
drift In from the four corners OF the
earth, the majority OF them from the
Oklahoma and Ohio oil fields, but sew
eral from points as fur distant as AUS
tralia.
Hotels in the town have been unable
for a year TO care for all the guests.
Even now, with work In the field at its
lowest ebb because OF weather condi-
tions difficult OF travel, hotel guests
are forced 10 sleep two and three in a
room. Even to get accommodation in
this wise, II is necessary TO wire ahead
for reservation else a cot in a hall will
probably be your lot. Mushroom"
restaurants have sprung up under
stairways and in any place wherein
guests may be fed. Hotel men here
estimate thsre were more than 10000
persons visited the town during the
past summer, Including few thousand
who annually come to Estill Springs,
summer resort in the hills back Of
:
Irvine.
The petroleum pilgrims who have
collected here are OF all types and sta
tions In life. Oil has been the attrac-
tion In all cases. but different phases
OF the business have proved magnets In
various cases. The majority of the
operators now living In the Irvine field
are old and experienced in the bust
ness. They have for years drilled in
various fields in separate parts OF the
country.
TO them one day is much like the
preceding ones They drill wells, hit or
miss and then go on without being az
fected TO any appreciable degree by
their success or failure, Hardened by
long experience in oil fields, they go
about their business as devoid OF emo
tions as does the grocerykeeper around
the corner from your home.
II is different with other Of the oil
operators In the Irvine field there are
several farms leased to multimillion
aires who are drilling for oil because
they can't resist the element OF chance
involved. To them IL is all game. A
II few thousand dollars lost in busters,
the term used by oil men to describe
dry wells, is to them as nothing. on
the other hand, they get more Joy out
OF striking oil than n dyed in the-wool
gambler gets out OF getting 'em back
TO back" in a big game They also love
the experience OF roughing 1t in the oil
field. as is tho case OF Van Camp. OF
pork and bean fame, who rode horse
back over the Estill county hills dur
ing all OF last summer wathching rigs
at work on land controlled by his leas-
es.
There are still other operators in the
Irvine field who got into the oil game
only after they had amassed comfort
able fortunes in other lines OF business
Some OF the operators are drilling with
their backs TO the wall" Several who
have been active in the Irvine field
have sunk their last dollar in q well
only TO find II "duster."
