Wednesdays Proceedings.

Considerable progress was made in
the trial of Garrett Johnson and Arthur
Cloar Wednesday. Shortly after the
testimony of Ed Powell was introduced
the State announced that they rested.
Powell was the only witness examined
by the State. He testified to being
called by the Nightriders and being
forced to accompany them to the hotel,
of calling P. G. Ward, the proprietor,
and of going with P G. Ward and Field
Marshall to the scene of the crime He
stated that he recognized part of the
men in the band the night of the muir
der. They were Tom Wilson, Frank
Fehringer, Roy Ransom and Garrett
Johnson. He stated that he was not
allowed to go with the band to the scene
of the killing. With this the State
rested.
Garrett Johnson was the first one put
on the stand. He denied knowing any
thing at all about the murder of Capt.
Rankin, or of any Nightridiug; said he
had never seen them and knew nothing
at all about them.
Arthur Cloar was then put on the
stand. He denied knowing anything
about the murder of Capt Rankin
and the attempt to assassinate Col.
Taylor. He admitted to being present
one night at Geo. Jordan's, and sale
they took their masks along and put
them on when they arrived at Jordan
field, but that he did not consider thai
nightriding. He said on cross-exami
nation that he never shot gun in his
life, and knew nothing at all about one

Christmas Stamps.


Nit is. often hard to realize the inn
portance of the work that is being done
in many States for the purpose OF build
ing and maintaining tuberculosis hos
pitfalls. In Tennessee campaign is now
in progress, and many good ladies over
the State are representing the work. In
Union City Mrs. w. H. Swiggart has
charge of the work, and just now is
offering for sale the Red Cross Christmas
stamps to further the cause. Education
is the watchword of Tennessee, but it
would have been infinitely better if the
money apportioned for the establishment
of State Normal Schools had been
utilized in building and establishing suit
able quarters for tuberculosis patients
where isolation and special treatment
and nursing could be had. The work is
however being attempted at very great
effort and everyone should give it their
hearty support, substantially. Finances
are needed, and there is no better way
to make start than to buy the stamps.
1t will be Christmas offering and could
not be applied to better cause.
The following shows what Tennessee
is doing,
There is quite friendly rivalry be-
tween the States as to who will sell the
most Christmas stamps this month,
The health departments of the State
Federations of Women's Clubs are
among the most ardent workers, and a
recent communication from Mississippi
says; We are behind the Tennessee
women. " while the Tennessee women
regretfully note that their sales are fall
ing behind those of the northeastern
States
Did you ever think really hard over
what these women. are trying to do!
Maybe if you did you would help them
in the big task. They are trying to
stamp out tuberculosis. They are trying
to cure those of you who have it, and
prevent those of you who are well from
taking it. It's a personal matter you
see. Buy some stamps and take care OF
your neighbor and of yourself.

SECOND TRIAL EVIDENCE.


The only witness for the day that was
Of any Importance was John Ratliff,
who is himself under a $4,000 bond
for the murder Of Capt. Rankin. While
he was in jail at Dresden he stated that
he was at the Log that night, but that
he would have never told it had not Ed
Marshall implicated him in his confess
sion. Attorney General Caldwell learned
of this to-day and telephoned Mr.. Rat
lift and asked HIM if he wanted to tes-
tify, in answer to which he appeared in
court Just before the noon hour and
was put on the stand. He stated that
he went there the night of the murder
in company with Ed Marshall and Ar
thur Cloar, and thet they were joined
on the way by Fthelbert Rogers and
Bill Johnson, both'of whom have made
confessions in this trial; that they
stopped at the corner of Ed, Powell's
field, while the rest of the band went
to the hotel and got Col. Taylor and
Capt. Rankin. He told of being pres
ent at the consultation at which 1t was
decided to hang the men, but said he
and Marshall did not go with the band
to the scene of the killing, but stayed
with the horses. He said he returned
home in company with Marshall and
Cloar, and that Cloar told them on the
way of what they did. He said he did
not know anyone present that night ex-
cept those he accompanied there and
Frank Fehringer, who was in command
of the band as far as he went with them,
and that he did not know Garrett John
son at all.
Ratliff was witness for the defense
in the previous trials, and stated that he
knew nothing whatever of the killing
or of the Nightriders in any way. He
stated to-day, in answer to a question
by counsel for the. defense, that he was
teStifying without any promise of inn
munity whatever from the Attorney
General or anyone else. He said that
he was promised immunity if he would
testify in the other trials, but that he
refused to do so, and that he never
would have confessed had not Ed Mar
shall cone SO and implicated him.
