Brief Notes On Georgia Affairs

[ is said that Albert Howell, brother law
to the Atlanta Constitution, has ousted
Hamp McWhorter from his long held posi-
ton as Political Caretaker for the Wall Street
corporations that own the gold mines, to-wit
the Railroads, Express Companies Tele-
graphs, telephones, &c
The cares of Corporation Caretaker are
much lessened when his brother in a member

Clark Howell has been putting in some
noble ticks for the Chamber Of Commerce
Tax-bill, aohich evempts the Northern corpo-
qdtao1oS from local 0sSeSSnec9t-and practi-
cally from any other sort Of real assessment.
A tax-law which on it's face grants special
favors to one class Of property, is traversity
upon justice
The Chamber Of Commerce drew the bill
for the very purpose of unloading corpora
ton taxes upon the land Of the farmer, and
the visible goods of the merchant.
On it's very face, the new Tax-law carries
the most odious form of favoritism and dis
elimination.
lax laws, when meant to be honest and
fair, treat all sorts of men, and all sorts of
property, ahhe
Equality is the basis of any system of
taxation which even pretends to be decently
honest.
TO be doubling the taxes on land at time
when the Wall Streeters are robblng this
State of such enormous sums, and when no.
body has the temerity to tax Gamblers Coca
Cola-ls the extreme of class law and dis
elimination.
The Constitution of the State of Georgia
provides that 'the county officers shall be
elected by the people.
The taX-assessors are county officers.
But the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce
did not care bean for the Supreme Law
of the State, and the new tax act was so
drawn that more than 900 new county officers
were brought into existence, none of whom is
elected by the people,
It was fragrant violation Of the Consti-
tuition to take these powerful county officers
out of the jurisdiction of the people, when
the Supreme Law SO plainly says that 'the
county officers -meaning all of then-shaW
be elected by the people, and that all public
officers SHALL BE, at all times, AALENABLE TO
THE PEOPLE.
In what way, are the 600 assessors amena-
BILE?
They are appointed autocrats; and they are
not amenable to anybody, excepting the Boss
clique which puts them in power
All over the State, there is q bitter cry
against this unjust, undemocratic, and uncon-
stitutional new law-sprung upon us by the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, and put
through on rush by such corporation hacks
as Bill Burwell
This legislature may take its orders from
Clark and Albert Howell, if it wants to, but
it would do we'll to remember that the plain
people of this State will have another say-so,
in a few short months.

H A r.
II Anxious to Improve Your
Hair and General Ap-
pearance Read
This Carefully

There are SO many so-called hair
growers on the market, large num-
Der of which are nothing more than
perfumed grease, it is no wonder peo-
pie get discouraged and lose faith In
all hair tonics. In deciding on what
to use on your scalp be sure and get
a remedy Of proven merit. Seeby's
Quinade is a highly medicated po-
made that has stood the test of time.
1t is the invention of a New York
chemist, and is made under the per
sonal supervision of licensed phar-
macist of many years experience.
Quinade stimulates and nourishes
the roots of the hair, causing a nat
ural growth of long hair. 1t makes
the hair soft, smooth and glossy, aid
easy to put up in the style desired.
To get the best results from the
use of Quinade the scalp should be
shampooed at regular intervals with
Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made
entirely out of vegetable oils, prin-
pally cocoanut oil, and contains no
animal fat of any kind. 1t fathers
very freely and is thorough
cleanser. Quinasoap leaves the hair
soft and fluffy, and imparts a refresh
ing feeling to the scalp, unequalled
by any other shampoo.
Do not accept any substitute, but
insist on getting Seeby's Quinade
and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for
them by the full name. If your drug
gist or dealer does not stock these
two articles ask him to obtain them
for you from his wholesaler. The
price is Csc each. Write to Seeby
Drug Co., 70 East 130th street, New
York City, for a sample, mentioning

DO YOUR DUTY.

The Negro voters of Nashville are
expected to do their duty on Septem.
Der 18TH by casting their ballots for
Hilary E. Howse, the man who has
done much for the city.
Hilary +. Howse made Nashville a
good mayor, he was human man al.
leviating suffering and distress wher-
ever he found it. He was the good
Samaritan of Tennessee. He, it was,
who struck the shackles from the
limbs of the city prisoners. He it was
who at all times said it was wrong,
cruelty wrong to march the fettered
prisoners through the streets of Nash
vile like so many cattle. He realized
that these unfortunate men though
prisoners were human and had hopes
and aspirations like other men. For
this one thing, Hilary Howse deserves
the vote and confidence of every man
in the city, because he did a righteous
act in behalf of the downtrodden. He
was instrumental in securing Hadley
Park for the recreation of our WON
en- and children. He saw to it that
Fairgrounds were established in vari
Gus portions of the city for the bene
fit of Negro children. He was the
prime mover in securing the splendid
library which will ever stand as al
enduring movement to nobility o
character and honesty of purpose
Black men of Nashville, do you
duty! We are sure you will go t
your various voting places on the pre-
scribed day and place that peerless
leader of men in the mayoralty chat
for the next term.
Hilary E. Howse has been true tt

and deserves your vote and influence
