REVENUE AGENT DEFEATED
IN THE SUPREME COURT
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special TO the Daily Progress.
Jackson, April 81. Two cases, the
principles of which involved over one
and one half million of dollars, were
decided by the supreme court last
evening. The suits were brought by
State Revenue Agent Writ Adams
against the Colonial and United States
Mortgage Company, limited, and
sought to collect taxes on loans made
by the company in this state. The
supreme court decided, in a lengthy
opinion written by Chief Justice Whit
field, that the company has no dom
icile in this state, and that, although
the loans were made in Mississippi,
by Mississippi agents of the company,
that the fact of the Office being located
in Memphis prevents the assessment
Of such loans as solvent credits.
This is the most notable defeat the
state revenue agent has ever received
in his back-tax crusade. Had the
case been decided in his favor extern.

mortgage companies would have beer

DEATH SENTENCE
Of James Burns Affirmed by SUI
preme Court for
Murder.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, April 21.-The supreme
court has affirmed the death SEN
tence of James Burns, convicted IN
the circuit court of Covington county
on the charge of murder, and the
date of execution is fixed for the 9th
of June. Burns is white man, for
merly a citizen of Massachusetts,
and he was convicted of killing
companion in railroad camp near
Williamsburg. When the jury re-
turned a verdict of guilty Burns sur
prlsed the court by cursing Judge
Enochs, who was presiding, in a
most abusive manner. The appeal
was taken merely as means of de-
lay, no bill of exceptions or suggestion
of error having been filed with the
court.

The most unfortunate thing that
could have happened to Mr.. Fox was
the report circulated at the beginning
of the campaign that he was groomed
for governor by political ring or
clique. This, according to our opin-
ion, cooked his goose at the start and
he realized this fact, for in his open
ing speech he strenguously denied the
truth of the statement But he made
a mistake himself when he heralded
it over the state that he was solicited
to become candidate by people in
every section by those of the bar,
of the pulpit and of the plowhandles.
This naturally created suspicion
that the word was started down the
line by the ring and that Mr.. Fox was
roped in so easily that he really did
not feel the rope around his neck-in
fact is unconscious to. this day of
that fact. Anything that looks or
smells like political ring is quickly
condemned by the people these days
and the people are right. 1t may be
that really no ring exists, but it will
be the hardest matter i'll the world tC
make the people believe it, and Mr.
Fox was so unfortunate as to be associ-
ated with the report. 1t would have
been the same had either of the other
three candidates had been associated
in like manner

where the governor had an excuse for
his action in the PREMISE. 1t sets a
precedent that places him in an atti-

violation of the law been the act of
the most prominent person or the
lowest human in this section the act
