dollars In fees from McLemore, the lat
Ter, thus made poorer in purse, would
probably feel obliged to assess license
ices against every concession and every
device liable TO license at the Tri-State
fair this year, Senator Fuller. il NAV

association.
But when Il came to a decision as to
$500 In salaries going to relatives Of
the Memphis mayor, and about the
same amount going into McLemore's
pockets ns county clerk, the decision
was swiftly made by Mayor Monte
verde, II these reports from the state
capital are true,
The result was that the McCalman
bill was passed, The two other bills
were killed, and not a voice was raised
by the mayor or his two lieutenants ON
the floor of the house in favor Of Nc
Lemore and his fees.
Mr., McLemore hasn't talked about
