 NO ASSESSMENTS
 Tending thls litigation, no assess ments on the property of corporations in the district have been made and they will pay TO taxes until the matter is adjusted. This means that Jefferson county will be short at least revenues on S75,Ooo,000 during the next few months in taxes, according to MT. McLendon, and not only the county, but the state will be in strengthened finances unless this assessment is amicably settled and the corporations are allowed to pay their taxes.
 the corporations. The delay which may be few months or year or more in collecting these taxes will, in all pi obs bility place the county in an em- barrassing position
 All clerks in the office of the tax as- sessor are busily engaged in preparing all property assessments so the books may te ready by October 1, when all taxes become due. Although exact fig ures are not available at this time, it lis estimated that had the assessment of the county board of tax adjusters on corporations in the county been sus- |tsined the assessed valuation of prop erry would have been approxim Itely $21o, 1000, 900.

RAILROAD MERGER
 STRONGLY DENIED Atlanta, Birmingham and At- Iantic to Retain Individu-
 aIity, Says Director

It is denied that the Atlanta. Birming- ham and Atlantic railroad is to be merged with another system. A director of the road in an interview in The Wall Street Journal declares that there have not been negotiations of this kind" and that the matter had not been consid- cred.
 7 He said he saw no special reason for the recent activity in stock beyond the fact that securities of all the recently reorganized roads had been active.
 Further he said
 'The road is increasing in efficiency, both in car loadings and in car move ments. In July the road made an aver age of forty-seven miles per car per day, which is fifty per cent better than the standard of thirty miles set by Daniel Willard as a goal for the average of all railroads.
 The industrial and agricultural devel- opment in the territory served by the railroad are showing steady and satis- factory progression instance, the city of LaGrange, Ga. has now nearly 1900 people. as compared with only 5000 in 1910. Houltrie, Ga.. has doubled the population, while Birmingham and At lanta have both grown substantially dur ing the last decade

NO PR0F|TEER|NC. SAYS TRADE PAPER Furniture Publication Points to Prices Charged and Costs
 In Business

About prices on furniture, the Grand Rapids Furniture Record has published the following statement
 While merchants in other lines in many states have been indicted for charging more than a fair profit for their wares, the finger of suspicion has not been pointed at the distributor of doing business on the same margin of profit as he did before the war, despite Increased operating expenses.
 Furniture is high because hardwood has advanced $50 per cent since the war and labor in furniture factories has been granted increases totaling 150 per cent of rre-war scales Furniture will never be as cheap as it was before the war; be- cause skilled cabinet makers now are earning only slightly more than carpen- ters and in order to keep skilled wood workers and attract young men to this trade the furniture makers must pay them better than the scale paid carpen- ters. Hardwoods will never be as low as they were before the war, because an attempt is being made to conserve the nations lumber and the amount cut hereafter will never exceed the demand to any material extent
 Many furniture merchants are sacri- ficing share of 'heir just profits now to make it easier for young couples to start housekeeping. They are doing all within their power and more than most people would expect of them to keep prices down to the lowest possible level not only on furniture but on all things that enter into homemaking and house. hold work.
 The furniture merchant of today is complete home furnisher and in addi- tioE carries a large line of gift merchan- disc. Including toys.

This statement was made yesterday afternoon by D. E. McLendon, county tax assessor He stated that the state board of tax adjusters did not think u assessments of the corpora tions in the county which were made by the county board were as large as they should be. For this reason as- sessments Of fcrty-six corporations have teen held up, according to the tax assessor. The assessment of this prop erty will amount to approximately $75,- 00o, ,00O.
 NOT ALLOWED TO PAY
 These corporations, whose assess ments have been set aside will not be allowed to pay taxes on last years as- scssment, it is stated. but must wait until the matter is finally settled
 It is stated that many of the cor poratiors would not allow the tax boards to examine their books and the state board holds that they have the right to do so.. l. is expected that a test cass will be carried before the su- preme court to determine whether the state can do this. If the appellate court rules that the state may examine the books of the corporations some time will be required for this before the property is assessed. These firms will then have the right to appeal to the board of revenue and if not satisfied

 DESPITE STRIKE
0rdiIlneSS Is Being Observed Throughout the District. Many Mines Report Men
 Returning to Work

We sold more blasting powder at our mines on Mon- day than on any day in Au- gust" said Walter Moore, manager of the Empire mines and the mines at Dora.
 Il am practically normal at Empire, and we have men on the waiting list at Dora"
 Reports received at headquarters of the mine operators committee yester- day suggested that operations at mines had made very good start for the week with more men at work than at the same time last week.
 By Saturday the Lewisburg mines of the Alabama company, which were nearly shut down by the general strike call, had attained almost fifty per- cent output gain.
 Every mine on the Frisco reported an increased force of men.

General Steiner says there are to be no mass meetings, because speakers at these meetings tend to in- flame the minds of their hearers and that tends to breach of the peace. He is here to prevent anything that has that trend no matter from which side it comes
 Major Locke, who was seen at Mill tary headquarters yesterday evening declared his views those of his chief

If that is the case. the increase for last week will be as great as the decrease of the preceding week. compared with the one prior to it.
 All repOrfS from tho y,1ipa fiold. ;,, dicated the prevalence of law and order. The military reported no acts of violence and no incidents tending to breach of the peace.
 It is known that no operations of the furnaN interests have been i'm peded by the coal strike. Iron and steel works had large reseifve stocks on hand. Operations were reported normal at them on Monday.
