GENERAL REYES
 GOES ID EUROPE President of Colombia Quits
 Office and Leaves
HE IS EXPECTED 10 RETURN
It Is Asserted That the Resignation of Reyes Is the Only Solution to the Difficulties That Affect
 the Country.

Colon, June 19.-Adviees from Carta- gena Colombia, confirm previous reports than Gen. Rafael Reyes, President of Colombia, has abandoned office and sailed for Europe. He embarked on board small fruit steamer at Santa Marta last Sunday, according to information received at Cartagena on Monday night It is believed the steamer is one of the Elder Dempster line bound direct for South ampton.
 The Cartagena advices state that the Presidents trip to Europe is known to and approved by General Holquin, the president-designate and the ministry, and that it is General Reyes intention to re- turn for the meeting of congress on July 20, if ministry of his countryman so desire or in case of a disturbance of the peace which is considered remote.
 The recent trend of affairs in Colombia makes the departure of the President matter of no surprise, for 1t has been openly asserted that either his volun- tary resignation from office or a revo- lutionary coup appeared to be the only solution for Colombia's s present troubles. lie SuppOIl gwen DS iSSlucAl IleScS to the United States-P Panama Colombia treaty has been partly responsible for the prevailing dissatisfaction. The treaty Is objectionable to the general public and in the congressional election held the last of May the government party received signal defeat
 After this election a committee of the victorious republicans had a conference with the President concerning the de- tails, of which the following statement is made:
 General Reyes received the committee in a friendly spirit, inviting an exchange of opinion as to the urgent needs of the country. He frankly confessed that con ditions were not satisfactory and that there was an alarming discontent every where, and he admitted that these were menaces to the maintenance of peace
 President Reyes declared that his de- termination to withdraw as executive head of the government was unalterable, in proof of which he added he wuold pre- sent to the Colombian congress his formal resignation from office on July 20. He was ready, he said to place himself un- der the orders of whatever citizen chosen by the people of the country He would resume the presidency only in the event of a revolution or only to permit the transfer of power to Gen. Ramon Con- zalez Valencia, as president-designate which office both General Holquin and he, himself, had already urged General Valencia to accept.

Whdt Is Sociology?
BY A. B. BEALLE.

most notable sociologist of modern times, except perhaps John Stuart Mills (and I think the wisest man, the most reasonable, the largest intellectual fig ure of any age was opposed to the doc trines of socialism.
 Sociology IS conservative.
 Socialism is radical.
 Sociology teaches of things as they are.
 Socialism teaches of things as they might be.
 Sociology is a critical study of so- ciety in all its aspects
 Socialism tends to a sharing of things.
 Let us not confuse the meaning of words, nor allow anyone to bias our minds against a clear concept of each.
 An exhaustive study of the human family cannot be dangerous and 1t is indeed to be deplored that any develop ment of the rational, thinking mind should be disparaged. We are all sociologists to the degree that we are interested in the past and present of the human race. Let us be fearless to see things and know things as they are.

FINE POWER PLANT
 FOR CHAT TANOOGA After Four Years of Work
 Contract Is Fulfilled KNOXVILLE AS DRY TOWN Problem of Prohibition Has Been Solved if the Number of Federal
 Licenses For the Year Can
 Be Taken As Guide.

Chattanooga, June 1s.-(Special. )-This citys manufacturing interests entered on new and greater epoch Thursday when electricity from the 000-horsepower plant at the lock and dam was sent over giant transmission wires into the heart of the city. Just four years ago the Chattanooga and Tennessee River Power company obtained a franchise to operate in the city, on condition that electricity be sent over the wires in four years, and by turning on the current Thursday the company fulfilled the terms of the contract, for the four years do not ex- pire until Saturday. The company gen erating power second in immensity only to Niagara Falls is already in operation. only a few poles have been put up, however, but enough are in operation show that the companys contract with the city has been fulfilled.
 Deputy Sheriff S. Barrow Smith of Knoxville. while in this city this week declared that the Marble City had solved the problem of prohibition, but not of temperance As an evidence that his city is not suffering from a drouth, he says that 464 government licenses permitting the sale of liquor are held by Knoxville parties. Practically all of these, declares the deputy, in the liquor business, but are so subtle that while arrests are frequent convictions are rare Before prohibition went into effect less than 150 government licenses were held by Knox vile parties.
 Judging from present indications there will be record breaking attendance at the annual meeting of the Tennessee Bar association, which opens at the Hotel Pat ten next Wednesday and continues in ses- sion three days. Practically all the judges of the state have agreed to adjourn their courts so that the lawyers may attend, while an additional inducement the railroads have granted low rate of fare for the occasion.
 Deputy Sheriff will Robinson, with the aid of bloodhounds, assisted in tracing down four men, three of whom are all legged to have broken into J. R. Moore's store at Chickamauga, Ga, at 10 o'clock Tuesday night. The store was entered by three men, who removed a pane of glass from a rear window. The thieves secured only $5 in cash, and made their escape in spite of the fact that they were discovered before making their getaway. The county jail was notified by the Georgia authorities, who requested that a deputy be sent to Chickamauga with bloodhounds. The dogs took the trail as soon as the store was reached and fol- lowed it for more than a mile to a house wherein were found four men, Deputy Robinson then told the Georgia constables to pick the guilty men from the four. The names of the men arrested were not given out.

AIdrlch Says Corporation
Measure win be Repealed
IN TWO YEARS TIME
Or Rate Cut Matenally-Senate, Ready
70 Deal with Incom Tax Schedule
First, Waits on the Tea
Schedule.

Washington, June s0.--The income tax
amendment to the tariff bin proved to
be a subject Of great interest 70 many
people who filled the galleries Of the
Senate yesterday.
The first order Of business was the
disposition Of Senator Tillman's amend.
ment placing a duty Of 10 cents a pound
on tea, to protect that industry in South
Carolina.
This being the last Of the amendments
to the schedules to be proposed while
the tariff bill is before the Senate in
committee Of the whole, nearly every
body was anxious to vote, but the South
Carolina senator was full Of his subject
and wanted TO speak.
He tot Of the superior quality Of the
American grown tea, Of the enormous
profits made on the imported article, and
the Importance as well as the possibili-
ties Of such an industry II properly fos-
tered. In reply to a question he de-
clared that he believed that with the
duty he asked for, the South would not
oxy be able to supply the entire Ameri-
can market, but would eventually ex-
port large quantity Of tea.
Senator Dixon suggested bounty as
a means of mrturing the infant tea in.
dustry and in this he was supported by
Senator Smith Of Michigan. Mr.. Tillman
responded that be did not propose to be
caught in advocating bounty. He would
not accept a bounty, he said, # a dollar
o pound was offered. He was not seek.
ing any selfish advantages for South
Carolina, but wanted to benefit the en-
tire country.
Tho amendment was debated at con-
siderable length, but was voted down
by the Senate, IS to IS.
To more clearly map out the campaign
entered upon, Senator Aldrich said that
the finance committee had determined
that the offering Of amendments to the
schedules Of the tariff bill while in com.
mittee Of the whole, should not continue
further at this time, as they could be
brought forward by senators after the
bin reached the Senate in a parliament
ary sense. To give force 10 that pur-
pose, be said. he would move to lay on
Tic table any other amendments that
might be offered at this time
In answer to a question, Senator Al
drich said be would support the corpora
ton tax as a means Of defeating the
income tax. He expressed The opinion
that the corporation tax would be re-
pealod after two years, or the rate ma.
terially lowered
